“You’re indeed strong, demon. I acknowledge your strength that rivals even me, the dragon king,” Atlas the dragon king said with his deep voice.historical
They had been battling for 5 hours non-stop, but neither of them shows any sign of exhaustion.
“You’re strong too, dragon king. I have a good suggestion, what if we make a bet?” (Demon Oz)
“Hm? Interesting, I accept! If I win, I’ll be taking your body!” (Atlas the Dragon King)
“Good, then if I win this battle, everything of you is mine,” Demon Oz said with an evil smirk.
“I see!!! Indeed, the body of a dragon king is a treasure itself, but I also have my other treasures, that’s a lot but I accept. Demon!!!” (Atlas the Dragon King)
“Then good, let’s continue the fight,” (Demon Oz)
“HAHAHAHA! You’ve already lost! We, dragons have an advantage of strength and endurance far exceed you, demons! Your body is mine!” Atlas prepares to shoot another dragon breath to Oz.
“[World Of Illusion]” (Demon Oz)
“[Dark Dragon King’s Roar]!!!!!” Atlas the dragon king shoots his powerful dragon breath to Oz.
“Hm?” Atlas senses something’s wrong, he felt that Oz’s presence suddenly vanish.
“W-what is this!? I got teleported!?” Their battlefield suddenly changed, the old huge castle suddenly changed into a vast forest.
“Do you think I’m a fool enough to bet without having anything on my sleeves?” (Demon Oz)
Atlas could hear Demon Oz’s words, but he couldn’t see where he is and he couldn’t even sense his presence.
“Where are we?” (Atlas the Dragon)
“Welcome to my empire, dear dragon king. This is the magical forest of Everdeen,” Demon Oz’s explained without showing his presence.
“Magical forest of Everdeen!? An Empire!? I see.. as I’m having a slumber at this dungeon, it looks like the world has become lively again, but why do I smell a hint of magic, covering the whole of this forest?” (Atlas)
“As expected of the nose of a dragon, you do live up to your legends. Indeed, this is the trump card I’ve been saving under my sleeves,” (Demon Oz)
!!??
Atlas suddenly hears Demon Oz’s voice from his back, but when he turned his back, an army numbering to hundreds of thousands comprises of various magic beasts.
“I see, so you really are a king, no, an emperor,” (Atlas)
“I am, welcome to my world of illusion, Atlas the Dragon King. This is my empire’s army, even though they’re created by my skill, the illusion world had saved their strength because of their allegiance to me,” (Demon Oz)
Atlas observes Oz’s army and saw the kings like Aegir and the others. He shifted his gaze to the imperial soldier, guards, and knights, all of them have the aura of a great warrior.
“I see.. I could indeed sense a lot of powerful figures on your ranks, and all of your soldiers is an elite, what a great country,” (Atlas)
“Do you admit your lost, Atlas?” (Demon Oz)
“We dragons put our pride above our lives, I won’t surrender!” (Atlas)
“Then I need to put you into obedience with force then,” (Demon Oz)
Demon Oz looks at his back and summoned illusions of all of his other clones too.
“Tarot!!! Attack!!!” (Demon Oz)
***********************************************************************
The effects of Demon Oz’s skill, [World Of Illusion] had already dissipated, because of their battle on the illusion world, there is no significant damage to the dungeon’s last boss room.
There is only one difference.
The last boss of the dungeon is kneeling in front of Demon Oz.
“It’s my defeat, and in such a shameful way of losing. I never thought your army will be that strong.. To not even stand for 10 minutes.. How humiliating..” (Atlas)
“Of course! They’re my pride! It’s your defeat, will you keep your promise, dragon king?” (Demon Oz)
“We dragons hold our pride above our lives, and a promise is even more above than them. I’m more than glad to have a strong person like you to be the one to take my life. You may use my corpse as you wish, my treasures are underground,” Atlas said as he already surrendered his life by closing his eyes, waiting for the pain that will end his life come.
“Huh? What do you mean by dying? Why would I kill a powerful dragon like you? What I mean by having your body is to have you serve me, Dragon King!” Demon Oz said hilariously.
“Serve you?” Atlas asked, dumbfounded.
“Yes! Doesn’t it cool to be an emperor that has a dragon king as his servant? Come and join my ranks, dragon king. Let’s gather your brethren across the world and make a place you could call home at my empire!” (Demon Oz)
“A place to call home, huh. What a tempting offer, but since I’ve lost to you, the strong one who even benevolent enough to spare my life, I, The one who used to be called the king of dragons, Atlas, pledge my allegiance to you,” Atlas said as he kneels in front of Oz.
<The Voice Of The Dragon Had Sounded>
<The [Ancient King Of Dragons] Atlas, had offered his allegiance to the host>
“I accept your allegiance, dear Atlas the Dragon King. I will not abuse my power and discriminate against anyone, and since you’ve joined my ranks, I’ll also protect the ones you want to protect. I’ll be counting on you for my future battles, Atlas,” (Demon Oz)
<The host had accepted the allegiance of the [Ancient King Of Dragons] Atlas>
<Congratulations! You had cleared the hidden quest: [The Reign Of The Ancient King Of Dragons]>
<Difficulty: Very Impossible>
<Searching for suitable rewards

Detected>
<Host will be rewarded [The Evolution Of The Dragon King]>
<A contract will be automatically made as a pact with host>
Whoosh!
A dense black mist suddenly covered the whole body of Atlas, making a huge cocoon. The pitch-black mist surrounds Atlas for a couple of minutes until the cocoon suddenly dissipates into thin air.
“W-What the,” Demon Oz got speechless as he saw the spectacle.
Atlas’s huge body got even bigger for about two times from before, and his scales had become more beautiful and majestic, there are some gorgeous purple and dark purple scales that aligned with some red gems that appear on his body. His head suddenly grew three huge black horns that emit a dense amount of mana.
“What a pleasant surprise! To think that I’ll evolve just because of having a contract with you, master. I humbly thank you,” (Atlas)
“Nonono, I don’t do anything, what just-” Just when Demon Oz wants to ask Atlas what just happened to him, another prompt appears on his head.
<The rewards for completing the quest spectacularly:
-Dungeon Core [Special]
-Dungeon Core [Special]
-Dungeon Master skill [Special]>
<The host will get the rewards at the treasure of Hades’s castle>
(W-what the *&#$!!!! Dungeon master!?) (Demon Oz)
“Atlas, you said you have a treasury, right?” (Demon Oz)
“Yes, I’ve collected a lot of things on my journey, master. I believe there will be a lot of things that will be useful for you there, let me lead you there,” (Atlas)
Atlas lead Demon Oz to the treasure and Demon Oz went speechless when he entered it. It’s a huge treasury that has the size of four grand castle’s usual treasure, and it’s filled with mountains of golds, magic items, magic weapons, and ancient treasures.
(Okay, calm down, let’s search for the dungeon core first) (Demon Oz)
“Atlas, do you know something called the ‘Dungeon Core’?” (Demon Oz)
“Hm? Do you mean that blue crystal over there, master?” Atlas points at a huge crystal that shapes like the whole of the dungeon with his huge claws.
“Yes! That!” Demon Oz immediately runs to the dungeon core and observes it.
The dungeon core shapes exactly like the dungeon, and even have the most absolute details of the dungeon on it.
“Do you know that this is the dungeon core?” (Demon Oz)
“Nope, I just happen to come here and kill the owner of the dungeon, and then the monsters start to follow and serve me so I accept them and make this dungeon mine,” Said Atlas indifferently.
(Well, that’s not quite the answer I’m hoping to hear, but well, let’s focus with this dungeon core first) (Demon Oz)
Demon Oz observes it while he’s confused about how does he obtain the dungeon core that supposed to be his reward, Oz tries to touch the dungeon core, and suddenly.
<Ren Arken had taken the absolute authority and ownership of the [Magical Forest of Everdeen] Dungeon>
<An additional dungeon core will be also rewarded>
