Chapter 84

The history of the mixed world was very long, even by the standards of the universe.

Naturally, there were various stories that existed in the mixed world throughout its long history.

There was the legend of the holy sword that rose to the hall of fame, and there was also the story of a being from the lower world who increased his rank and reached the position of a star.

Among those stories, there was one that I remembered.

It was a story that was so surprising that I kept it in my memory.

It was about the guardian of the dragon king.

The guardian of the dragon king was an old story in the mixed world.

Now, it was almost treated as a legend, but I remembered it clearly.

The Great Army of Dragonica.

A gathering of dragon spirits.

Almost all of the dragon races that existed in the mixed world belonged to this place.

The sky dragons that roamed the universe, the red dragons that destroyed the world, the divine dragons that were praised by the empire, and so on.

They were spirits and dragons, and rulers who dominated a whole world.

The place where they gathered was Dragonica.

Among the dragon races, which were called the chosen race, there was naturally a hierarchy.

And among them, there were only seven who were at the top.

In the mixed world, they were called dragon kings.

Ohum, who caused a ruckus in my library a while ago and got kicked out, couldn’t even fit in their place.

He belonged to the thirty-six heavens of heaven and couldn’t enter Dragonica.

Even if he did enter, he wouldn’t be able to breathe properly in Dragonica.

‘Dragonica is that tough of a place.’

The dragon kings were born strong.

They were strong from birth, and they grew stronger as they aged.

They were very suitable for wearing the title of king among the dragon races.

It was as if the title of king had chosen them.

But among the seven dragon kings, there was one who had a weak start.

‘That’s the white dragon king from the story of the guardian of the dragon king.’

White Dragon King Sharuriel.

Unlike all other dragon kings who were called kings from birth, the white dragon king was said to be weak from birth.

Not only physically, but mentally as well.

Being weak was a sin in itself for the dragon race, which revered strength.

Of course, the white dragon king was said to have been scorned and ignored by his own race.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

Such a being rose to the position of a dragon king after a long time of effort.

And he did so with the help of a teller, whom the dragon race despised most.

‘It’s unbelievable.’

A teller and a dragon.

Two words that couldn’t coexist more than water and oil.

The dragon race despised tellers.

They hated the behavior of tellers who didn’t fight directly, but just showed off from behind.

That’s why tellers couldn’t get along with dragons.

But one teller did something unbelievable.

A teller showed a Story with a dragon as the protagonist.

And what’s more, that Stories protagonist eventually rose to the position of a dragon king.

An unbelievable achievement.

That’s why everyone called Sharuriel’s contracted teller as the guardian of the dragon king.

That guardian’s name was Galiazs.

‘You’re saying that old man is the guardian of the dragon king?’

Perhaps reading my undisguised emotion, Mr. Galiazs scratched his head with an awkward smile.

“I can see that you’ve heard something about me.”

“Yes, yes. Well, yeah.”

“Don’t be too surprised. It’s already over, isn’t it? It’s an old story from far past that is now treated as a legend.”

“It’s more amazing because it’s a legend.”

“Is it?”

“It’s something that actually happened and no one else has achieved it.”

“You don’t have to praise me so much. Isn’t it true for you too?”

“That’s...”

I couldn’t say anything when he said that.

From a third person’s perspective, Mr. Galiazs and I would be similar.

“Just kidding. I’m just surprised. Why would someone like you work in such a remote place?”

The Story that Mr. Galiazs showed was enough to leave a mark on the history of the mixed world.

If his book was like a brilliant star that shone endlessly, this one was like a faint moonlight that was less than that.

Of course, it was only because the comparison target was too great, but that level was still amazing.

‘Does that mean the teller in front of me is at least a director?’

I never thought I would meet such a high-ranking teller here.

As if she was surprised by the fact that I came out of the record room, she exclaimed softly.

“Wow. That’s impressive. Do you know the master there?”

“Master?”

There was only one person who could be called master by her.

I was slightly taken aback by her strange way of addressing him, but I nodded.

“Yes. I know Galiaz.”

“Oh. You even know his name? This is not ordinary... Ah!”

She seemed to realize who I was then.

“Now that I think about it, I heard a story. There’s someone who got promoted from regular to assistant in one month today. What was his name? Kang Yu-hyun, right? There aren’t many tellers who look like humans, so I remember you. You’re the teller from the rumor, right?”

“Yes. That’s me.”

There was nothing to hide, so I answered honestly.

Because of that, her eyes were filled with much more interest than before.

She looked twice as intense because she had an eyepatch on one eye.

“Wow. It’s really true. Nice to meet you. My name is Celestina.”

“Ah, yes. Nice to meet you. I’m assistant Kang Yu-hyun.”

Until recently, I introduced myself as a regular, but now I could proudly call myself an assistant.

She laughed heartily at my answer.

“Heh heh. Usually assistants who just got promoted still have the habit of calling themselves regulars for a while, but you’re already calling yourself an assistant?”

“Yes, well. The period of being a regular was so short.”

“That’s right! That’s true. One month is ridiculously short. You adapted quickly. The more I see you, the more amazing you are. And you’re also friends with the master there. That’s surprising too. Do you have any department affiliation?”

“No.”

“Hmm. You’re such a talented person and you don’t have an affiliation yet? Don’t you think people around you will leave you alone?”

“They’ve been approaching me a lot actually. So I’m trying to avoid them.”

“That’s tough. But what about the rumor?”

“What do you mean?”

“You don’t care about protection or anything, and you fight in the world of thoughs with collectors.”

“Yes. That’s true.”

She seemed to not believe that the rumor was true, but she widened her eyes when she heard my answer.

Then she laughed again with delight.

She was very honest with her emotions in many ways.

Her way of speaking and personality were not ordinary.

“Ha ha ha! That’s right! A teller should have such spirit and ambition! These days they’re all doing the same thing with the same method and the same idea, it’s so boring to death? Yeah, it’s nice to meet you like this. How about it? Don’t you want to join our department?”

“Department? I belong to the story room.”

“Kid. I belong to the story room too, that’s why I’m saying that.”

“...Which department are you from?”

I didn’t think she was a teller from the idea room.

I thought she was from somewhere else because I didn’t recognize her face, but that wasn’t the case.

“Celestial Being Department. Have you heard of it?”

“Ah, there...”

I couldn’t have not heard of it.

There were eight departments in the idea room, and I remembered them all.

Celestial Being was the most peculiar case among the various departments, because this one was operated by a small elite group.

There was only one director in each department, but usually as the rank went down, the number increased.

At least three Assistant Manager directors were needed, and more than ten managers.

Of course, the number was not small when it came to assistants and regulars.

But Celestial Being had less than ten people in total.

They didn’t recruit anyone carelessly for their department, and the tellers they picked were all good enough to be in the top tier of their rank.

It was a very unusual place for a department where size was a measure of power.

“Isn’t that a very tough place? Are you sure you can recruit me so casually?”

“Me? Of course, I’m the director there, so I’m the one who’s proposing to recruit you.”

“What?”

“I picked all the other guys too.”

“...”

I didn’t think she was really the director.

And I didn’t think a person who was the head of a department would act like that either.

It was fine in a way because she had no pretense, but was that really okay?

“But what do you say? Don’t you want to join our department? I’ll make sure you won’t regret it.”

She seemed to be serious about recruiting me, as she looked at me with a very hot gaze.
