Dungeon Maker - Chapter 275 - Dritarashutra (7)
At that moment, Aamon spoke again, [I am not trying to create anxiety or fear among you.]
[However, the fact that the godly man has appeared means that the situation has already become quite serious.]
[If you consider that you haven’t noticed the existence of the twisting until the godly man appeared, I think it’s possible that the celestial door will open faster than it did a thousand years ago.]
This time, there was a more chaotic silence spreading among the participants in the meeting. Dragon Lord Ancablosa, who did not lose her composure amid such a chaotic mood, asked Scathach, “Why don’t we close the celestial door just like Mammon, the King of Greed, did a thousand years ago?”
“Yes, that’s the solution. It will solve everything,” said Scathach with a light smile.
That was what not only Yong-ho and the Queen of Fury but also Ancablosa and the Dragon Legion wanted badly. The dragons of the past were not united as one, so their fight against the celestial world was not very helpful. However, the current Dragon Legion was different.
Everyone was calculating the gains and losses of this option.

Biryubakcha, the head of the Garura clan, said with a sigh, “Is it unreasonable for us to ask for a ceasefire with the northern army?”
“You know what? These are the bastards who betrayed Master Mammon one thousand years ago. We can never believe them,” snapped Gusion angrily.
Gusion, who felt the Sin of Pride directly on the battlefield, was convinced that the guy in the rear of the northern army was the King of Pride. He was definitely the King of Pride of the past who betrayed Mammon, not the current King of Pride.
Gusion wasn’t curious about how that king was still alive or how he gained such great power.
The only thing that mattered to him was to take revenge on the King of Pride. His desire to take revenge on the king, which had been dormant deep down in his heart for the past one thousand years, was strongly rekindled.
With the atmosphere getting more and more serious, the head of the dragon clan asked again in a weary voice, “Is there any possibility that the King of Pride will shut the door of the celestial world again? If we don’t act, all of us in the demon world will have no choice but to perish together.” What he said was a real possibility.
But Sitri shook her head and said, “Well, I think the King of Pride would rather choose to kill us first even before the celestial door opens. He will try to close the door after taking away the powers of the King of Greed, the Queen of Fury as well as mine.”
Sitri was also convinced of the existence of the King of Pride of the past. He was a lunatic. Despite the possibility that Mammon could not close the door of the celestial world, he betrayed Mammon because he put more priority on Mammon’s death than preventing the destruction of the demon world.
Because of this track record, it was impossible for Yong-ho to close the celestial door in cooperation with the King of Pride.
If he were the same King of Pride of the past, he would prioritize defeating Yong-ho and the Queen of Fury over closing the celestial door.
“So, this is our best option. We have to defeat the King of Pride first then fight the godly men of the celestial world in order to close the celestial door,” shouted Gusion loudly.
The head of the dragon clan and the head of the Garura clan felt averse to Gusion’s declaration at the moment, but they soon understood him. In fact, the King of Pride had been advocating the annihilation and enslavement of different races from the alien world by promoting the supremacy of pure blood of the demon world. He was a guy who could not coexist with the eight clans from the beginning.
The Queen of Fury closed her eyes. She let out a long breath then said with a smile, “I’m going to take a short break. Queen of Sloth and Mammon people, thank you for your precious comment and insight.”
In fact, like the southern forces, the northern army also retreated in the face of the godly man’s unexpected attack. So, she could take out some time for a break.
When the Queen of Fury left the meeting room, Kirtimuka and Gardimundi hurriedly followed her. The head of the dragon clan and the head of the Garura clan also expressed due manners to Yong-ho and Sitri before leaving. Some representatives from the eight clans who were waiting outside the conference room approached Yong-ho and his party to show them to a break room.
Sitri looked at Yong-ho silently, who nodded to her slowly.

The Queen of Fury sat blankly in the sky garden on the top floor of Vimana, her dungeon. The night air was cold, but she didn’t think it was cold. She just wanted to be united with the darkness of the night.
But she could not if she wanted to. No matter how much she closed her eyes to try to forget the situation, she had to face the cruel reality. Not only the northern army but also the celestial world were both a tough challenge for her.
The Queen of Fury went to the trouble of humming a song. Although she hummed it lightly, her singing created a beautiful melody, just like the head of the Gandharva clan who were good at singing and dancing. The moonlight and starlight seemed to melt into her singing.
After she was carried away with the excitement of her singing for a moment, she quickly closed her lips and stopped humming. Vimana was her dungeon, so she could know all the little things that were happening in Vimana. She noticed there was a visitor waiting in front of the sky garden.
Her heart was pounding. By now, she could have gotten used to his visit, but she could turn to the visitor only after she took a big breath.
The visitor said with a gentle smile, “Can I talk to you for a minute?”
“Of course. As I told you many times today, I would like to welcome you very much.”
Rather than overreacting to him in an excited voice, she sat down on a large rock.
Yong-ho settled next to her casually.
Because of an awkward atmosphere, either Yong-ho or the queen needed to break the ice first.
The Queen of Fury hesitated nervously while Yong-ho moved his lips several times. At last, he said, looking at her, “Queen of Fury, or let me call you Dritarashutra.”
The queen flinched for a moment then nodded obediently. She turned slightly to face him.
He looked at her briefly. In fact, it was quite surprising that the two met face to face like this in the queen’s dungeon.
Yong-ho himself was now in the dungeon of the Queen of Fury, and the queen faced him without her bodyguards.
This kind of casual meeting was possible because they trusted each other as allies.
“I would like to tell you something as your ally and strong friend. You may feel unpleasant or offended by what I have to say, but I hope you can hear me out.”
At that moment, he was very serious. Looking at him squarely, the queen corrected her posture immediately and said, “Please give me a second.”
The Queen of Fury put her hand on her chest. She then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. After taking a deep breath several times, she faced him again and said, “Now you can go ahead. I am ready to hear what you have to say to me.”
The Queen of Fury was also serious. It wasn’t Dritarashutra, the woman who was in love with him, but the head of the eight clans in her capacity as the Queen of Fury, who was facing him.
Instead of beating around the bush, Yong-ho put it bluntly, “The King of Pride is very strong. It would be difficult for us two to confront him together. As you know, he is accompanied by the King of Lust when he is fighting.”
Most of the southern forces did not see the King of Pride, overwhelmed by the sudden appearance of the celestial holes and the presence of the godly men, but Yong-ho and the Queen of Fury certainly saw him. While fighting on the battlefield today, the two clearly realized why the King of Violence made the extreme choice of suicidal attack against the King of Pride, and why he called the king the Demon God.
The amount of mana that the King of Pride unleashed at the last minute exceeded that of Yong-ho and the Queen of Fury. Moreover, the King of Lust was also very strong. Although Yong-ho and the Queen of Fury didn’t yet fully get used to their Godly Energies, the King of Lust not only blocked their attack but also escaped from the scene.
The Queen of Fury nodded at Yong-ho’s explanation. She wanted to forget about it, but as the queen of the eight clans, she could not turn away from reality.
The King of Pride was strong. The Queen of Fury knew she could not confront him alone, let alone the King of Lust.
Instead of comforting the Queen of Fury who seemed to have resigned to reality, Yong-ho changed the topic.
He said, looking at the Godly Energy of Greed fitted on his right arm, “The power of Greed is possession. I never let go of what I have in my hand. You know Kaiwan and Tigrius, my subordinate spirits, right?”
“Of course, I know them.” The Queen of Fury nodded quickly. In particular, she was familiar with Kaiwan because she met her several times.
“Both of them are former masters of their own houses. As you may know, when the master becomes a subordinate spirit, his or her power is greatly weakened. It may disappear altogether after a long time. But they still have their own power. Moreover, I can use their power as if it were my own. I can do all this because I have the power of possession by way of Greed.”
