“In what kind of pond does a dragon live! What the hell is this place!”
The Beast Palace Lord shook his head as he heard Chung Myung’s words.
“The dragon is an imaginary animal. What you just saw was the Ink-scaled Blood Python.”
“What is different between the two! What I just saw looked like an imaginary animal too!”
“But it exists right?”
“Ahhh!”
Chung Myung scratched his head.
“I am an idiot for thinking something good would happen here!”
He had initially questioned why the people lived in the barren wasteland despite having such fertile land.
‘But how can a person even live here!’
A tiger was two times the normal size and a bloody dragon living in the pond!
It was a damn circus show!
But the Beast Palace Lord shrugged his shoulders.
“That guy there is also a spirit creature. His scales are so strong that even a sword doesn’t work on its body, and it has strong enough power to change the entire terrain of this place with a single move of its tail. It is a literal monster.”
“Even the Lord cannot handle it then?”
“Well… I don’t know. I need to fight it to know about that, but I cannot go in there. And since that thing doesn’t come out, there is no need to go and bring trouble on ourselves either.”
“…”
‘Ah, so…’
It sounded like a sore loser giving excuses when they couldn’t win.
Chung Myung wondered if felt strange to make himself sound weak when he had that body, but this… this creature was called the Ink-scaled Blood Python of the snake world.
First of all, he worried if that thing could even come under the category of a snake…
“The Beast Palace worships this?”
“Worship…”
The Beast Palace Lord smiled bitterly.
“What kind of bastard would worship a snake? What is the point of a man worshipping a beast?”
“…”
Could a person who held the throne of the Beast Palace even say such things?
Baek ‘Jeon,’ who was riding on Chung Myung’s shoulder wagged its tail in agreement.
“The place isn’t called the Divine Pond because the snake stays there. In fact, the beast came into this place a while after we gave it the name.”
“Then… can’t you get rid of it?”
“Why?”
“Uh?”
“Didn’t I tell you? This place is sacred. It is natural for animals to live in such places. However, the beasts here are just a bit unusual.”
‘A bit?’
‘A bit?’
‘I guess you don’t know what ‘a bit’ means?’
“The members of the Beast Palace people cannot go into the Divine Pond and the snake doesn’t come out of it. He is like a neighbor who doesn’t like to mingle. So why fight it?”
