The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

82. Ah, this is the ‘dragon’s treasure’!

Everyone looked at the treasure and shed admiration. Calcia smiled in satisfaction at that response.

“Ted. Choose what you want too.”

“Calcia. What do I want from a friend? I am too old to be an adventurer. Magic swords and great shields are of no use to me anymore. But no one believes that I am your friend.”

Ted spoke openly and honestly.

“Hmm, then how about carving a dragon pattern on it?”

dragon pattern.

It was a pattern that dragons gave to humans.

If it had that pattern, it meant that the dragon would recognize it.

“Can I?”

“Sure. Aren’t you my friend?”

Calcia chanted a short spell.

Once, light enveloped Ted. A dragon pattern was engraved on the back of Ted’s hand.

Obtaining the pattern of the Indigo Dragon, that is, acquiring the ability to handle Atlan’s Lizardmen, Draconians, and Sea Serpents.

Not only that, but he could also command mermaids and fish.

In a word, Ted could become the king of fishermen. No one doubts his words anymore.

It is enough to summon a sea dragon in front of those who doubt it.

“Please feel free to choose whatever you want.”

Opening the dragon warehouse to all party members was something I hadn’t expected.

“Can I touch you once?”

“sure. of course.”

Calcia readily answered Vivian’s question. Even Vivian tried various swords.

It seemed to determine which sword was better. In the warehouse, a sword was stuck upside down between gold coins.

Sword collectors will be thrilled when they come in. Because everyone looked like a high-end product at a glance.

“Are you really giving me anything here?”

Arthur blinked and asked again. It’s natural to not believe it.

“sure. Arthur Pendragon. I promise you in the name of the dragon.”

Calcia chuckled. I carefully looked around. Looking back, it is an enchanting landscape.

In the current world, the story flowed in a different direction from the original work. It’s hard to pinpoint where it went wrong, but it’s probably since I existed.

Right now, Arthur was using the Arcenian steel sword he got from a bet with the blacksmith. The color is slightly different from mine.

If my sword was pitch-black, Arthur’s was black, close to gray. Thanks to that, at the beginning of the semester, Arthur and I were asked if we were from the Arkenban together.

Anyway, Arthur used the sword recklessly until he got Excalibur.

There is one reason why I am telling this story now.

Since Arthur had been using the Arcenian steel sword for a long time, I thought it would be better for me to follow Arthur and get a skill ball rather than a weapon right now.

“Kalcia, can you see only the skill balls separately?”

“sure. Arthur. If you would like a skill ball, please follow me.”

Like the original, Arthur wanted a skill ball. Vivian was examining the sword, and Sepia was examining various wands.

For reference, what Sony got from the original work was a polearm that could be adjusted in size and weight at will, like Yeouibong.

We stood in front of the skill ball.

At this point, among the skill balls that Arthur originally checked, there was something like this. Crimson Mode, Wearbear Transformation, Miracle of Light, and more.

Crimson Mode is a skill that Anya acquires later when she awakens.

Immediately after use, pain tolerance and physical abilities are greatly increased, and as vitality decreases, the user becomes stronger.

Wear Bear Transformation is a skill that literally transforms into a bear.

Once transformed, intermediate level demons gain enough strength to lightly tear them apart.

Miracle of Light is a healing-type skill that heals nearby party members. It was a skill that Arthur, who takes good care of his party members, was very worried about.

“Um, it’s difficult. Everything looks good.”

Arthur picked up each skill ball and looked at what would be good for him. Like the main character, I was able to analyze the item with the help of the system.

There was no talk of choosing just one, but out of etiquette, it would be better to pick just one.

In the sense of choosing comfortably, Calcia was far away.

“Hey, Arthur, could you see something useful for me?”

Each skill ball had a different appearance, but I couldn’t clearly tell what was what. In the end, Arthur had no choice but to ask for help.

“Ah, yes! Ethan, what skill are you looking for?”

In the original work, Arthur acquires the ‘Light Protection’ skill. With his anti-magic resistance skill, Arthur acts without much restriction even on the battlefield where magic is pouring. Its greatest advantage is that it can also cast blessings on party members.

What skills will I get?

I wanted a skill called ‘Super Intuition for Combat’. It was a morale-level skill that intuitively resolved battles to one’s advantage.

Even in the words of the writer, he directly mentioned it, because he said it was as good as the protection of the light. It is one of the best skills certified by the author.

“I’d rather have a skill related to intuition that’s helpful in battle… .”

Originally, it was one of the two things that Arthur was worried about. However, Arthur gave up his ‘Super Intuition’ because he was able to increase his luck through quests. It was based on the judgment that luck could replace intuition.

Of course, it’s one of Arthur’s miscalculations.

“Then, do you think this skill ball would be good? They say it’s a super intuition for battle.”

Arthur gave me the skill ball.

“Uh, yes. thank you.”

“I think this will be good. Rae ‘Blessing of Light’. They say it greatly increases magic resistance and can bestow protection on party members.”

As if satisfied, Arthur grabbed the skill ball and smiled once.

“When the time comes, let’s find things Sepia and Vivian can use.”

“okay. That would be nice.”

We grabbed each skill ball and headed to Sepia and Vivian. Vivian was holding a dark red blade.

The blade radiated vicious energy like a demonic sword.

If Vivian had the only hobby, it was collecting weapons like a weapon master.

“Is it okay if I take a look at what everyone picked?”

Sepia was holding a book. Arthur flipped through the book Sepia gave him. It was a book with a lot of blank pages.

“You look fine.”

“what is that?”

I asked Arthur’s words.

“As a wizard, my intuition kicked in. It’s like a magic book. The design also looks classy. It seemed like a perfect fit for me.”

If you’re a wizard, aren’t staffs and wands suitable for you? In Dragon’s Strongest, there were things that had to be attributed once to clearly know how to use them.

“It’s an artifact belonging to the owner. The owner has not been decided yet.”

“Right. You made a good choice. That would suit Sepia.”

Calcia, who had approached me before I knew it, was smiling.

“It’s Lemegeton. As the owner becomes stronger, the blank pages are enchanted. It is an artifact that grows with its owner.”

Then it’s a scammer. It meant that he could learn various magics without using skill balls.

“And what Vivian chose is the dragon sword Balmung.”

If it’s Balmung, it’s a dragon-killing sword from the German epic ‘Song of the Nibelung’. Originally, in the epic, it was said to have a blue jewel embedded in it, but what Vivian was holding was a two-handed sword in the form of a dark red blade that radiated vicious energy.

Vivian nodded in satisfaction.

“I like it because it’s a dragon slayer sword.”

Suddenly, I felt sorry for Calcia.

Couldn’t we just take fraudulent artifacts from the warehouse? Perhaps she didn’t know that the four of us would only choose artifacts this good.

However, Calcia did not show any regret at all.

“I am glad that all artifacts have found their owners. It would be better as an artifact to help the benefactors rather than being stuck in a warehouse.”

We repeatedly expressed our thanks. Now it was my turn to use the skill ball.

“use.”

The skill ball broke and white energy flowed through the gap and entered my body. I hurriedly opened the skill window.

—————————————————-

During July, the Linchester swordsmanship level was raised by 1 and poison resistance by 3. And he was in a state where he had acquired ‘combat intuition’ as a skill.

As far as I can see, it was a great growth.

Vivian and Sepia were putting the dragon sword and magic book in their respective subspaces. We left the warehouse and returned to the banquet hall.

The banquet was held again. But I could hardly concentrate on the banquet.

Because I knew better than anyone what was going to happen next.

“Calcia! So I raised my paddle and called out to Stormshark. Come on! The seaman does not break!”

Ted talked about the martial arts by Calcia’s side. Before anyone knew it, even the young dragons were listening to Ted’s heroic story.

In an instant, the ground shook violently. It was like an earthquake. At the same time, Russell entered the banquet hall. Russell got down on one knee on the spot.

“Kalcia-sama, I have a report for you. A group of intruders entered the entrance of Atlan.”

“How many intruders are there?”

Calcia asked in a calm voice.

“I don’t know exactly, but I think it’s at least seven hundred, even as a rule of thumb.”

“Has the enemy been identified?”

“The opponent is an army led by Mine. The classes are cavalrymen, warriors, and wizards.”

“Evacuate children and old dragons first. And prepare for battle.”

Enemies were coming in with a shout from the plain. According to the enemy report, at a glance, it seemed to be over seven or eight hundred.

Orcs riding Pegasus and Hobgoblins riding wolves were the main forces. In the meantime, giant demons such as ogres, trolls, and minotaurs were also included.

There were seven or eight hundred horses, and it was a legion that would destroy the ship’s army if it actually faced human troops.

We were approaching the end of the Dragon’s Nest episode. The final battle of the Dragon’s Nest episode is to defend Etlan against Mine.
