Transmigrated into the Gacha Game I Abandoned for 10 Years

“…But, why all of a sudden? No, is this even possible from the start…?”

At first, she spoke with a very happy expression, but as time passed, she started to feel something was off and responded.

In response to her question, Dragon Lord nodded and spoke.

“If there were more time left, it wouldn’t be possible even for me, but in the current situation, it’s possible to extract it relatively quickly. Of course, it will still take about three days.”

“…Why?”

“What reason are you talking about?”

“The reason for trying to extract me quickly.”

Rhien was no fool.

Though she was a dragon, she had a tendency not to think deeply, but her mind functioned normally, and she knew what kind of dragon the Lord in front of her was.

Knowing the ideology of the current Dragon Lord, Aliones, who protected the continent, Rhien asked with a face full of doubt.

At least Rhien, who knew his ideology, understood that he had no reason to intentionally do something like this.

In response to her doubt, Aliones silently raised his mana and began injecting it into the entire lair.

Whoooom-!!!

The lair began to vibrate as the intense mana filled the room, and Aliones turned around, sitting down and speaking.

“Anyway, we have plenty of time, so I’ll tell you slowly, but first, let me give you the conclusion. There are two reasons.”

“……”

“The first is that there is a task that requires your strength. The second is that Lartania is in danger.”

“What does that mean-!”

Rhien spoke with a deep frown.

So furious that her usually calm reptilian eyes glared with an intense killing intent, Rhien glared at Aliones, but he remained calm and continued speaking.

“I’ll say it again. Sit down. And getting angry at me won’t change anything. I’ve come to help you, and it’s not my fault that the world is in danger or that Lartania is at risk.”

“……”

Rhien frowned at Aliones’s words for a moment, but soon sat down.

Once he confirmed she had sat down, he began speaking.

“Before I continue, I’d like you to make one promise.”

“What is it?”

“Promise me you won’t rush out after hearing this story.”

“……”

Rhien frowned.

However, seeing Aliones firmly close his mouth as if he wouldn’t speak unless she made the promise, Rhien nodded reluctantly.

And then.

“Two days from now, Kim Hyunwoo will die.”

“…What?”

At the Dragon Lord’s words, Rhien’s eyes widened in shock.

That night.

In a small utility room on the first floor of the Lartania Lord’s castle.

Normally, it would be a storage room filled with junk, but currently, there were two heroes inside.

“Is everything ready?”

“It’s all done. We just need to activate it…!”

The two heroes were none other than Shadra and River.

“By the way, this magic circle, it really works, right?”

River asked as she looked at the highly metaphysical magic circle drawn on the floor of the utility room, and Shadra nodded as if it was obvious and replied.

“Of course it works. Once this magic circle activates, silence magic will be cast on all floors except the highest floor. No one will even realize they’re under the effect of silence magic.”

“…Is that possible?”

“Of course it’s possible. The magic will be cast so weakly that we won’t even be able to detect it. Well…technically, it’s more like dulling the senses. And on the highest floor, dream magic will be cast.”

“…Hypnosis?”

“If it were hypnosis, it would be meaningless. We’ve just made arrangements so we can look a little more attractive. It’s better to fight on a slightly advantageous battlefield.”

River nodded but still asked.

“That’s true, but we won’t get caught, right?”

“Of course. No one comes into this utility room more than once a month. Also, the magic circle itself was drawn with a special Magic Stone material you made to block any light from the mana.”

It was clear that the magic circle Shadra drew in the utility room was different from the usual ones, as it emitted no light, unlike other magic circles.

“…So, can we go up now?”

“No? There’s no need to go up. We’ve even made it so we can teleport in case we get caught while going up.”

“…Wow, that’s possible?”

“Long distances are impossible, but short distances like this are fine. We have about 10 minutes left, so let’s take our time getting ready.”

As Shadra spoke, she casually glanced at the clothes under her robe.

The clothes she wore, rumored to be part of Kim Hyunwoo’s cosplay, looked cheap to her, but she didn’t feel embarrassed.

“Wow…”

…Though River seemed to have different thoughts.

Anyway, both of them were thinking that the teleportation would be ready soon.

Creeeak-!

“…?!”

Suddenly, hearing a voice from the utility room door, they were caught off guard and quickly hid between the shelves piled with items.

And then.

“Ah, ugh- stop-”

“Haah- haah-”

“Ugh, ah…”

The door to the utility room slammed shut, and they heard strange breathing sounds. Shadra and River looked at each other, mouths agape.

It was no surprise, as they hadn’t expected this situation at all.

With surprised expressions, the two exchanged looks, silently debating what to do.

“Giral- let me breathe…”

“S-sorry, Loriel…was I too rough…?”

“No, it’s fine…chuup.”

They were once again startled by the names coming from the two, but…

“I love you. I love you, Loriel… Forgive me…I’ve been too… dishonest.”

At the simultaneous confessions in this awkward situation, they had no choice but to hide even more.

“Don’t say that… I felt the same… I just couldn’t express it because I was afraid… I also…love you.”

With Loriel’s voice filled with tears, their breaths started becoming more intense.

As the sound of clothes falling one by one reached them, River and Shadra watched, their faces turning red, as they saw the two becoming one.

“Haah…!”

River, who had snapped back to reality, quickly nudged Shadra, who was staring blankly at the scene with wide eyes.

“…!”

Shadra trembled as if struck by lightning, finally regaining her senses.

Seeing her, River motioned to leave, and Shadra nodded as if she understood.

Fortunately, their hiding spot was near the utility room door, so aside from a slightly risky area, they could escape without being seen.

“Ah, ugh-”

“Hah- hhh…haah…”

Shadra and River, who had been watching the strange sounds and the intimate actions of Giral and Loriel, subtly shifted their focus from them and began moving toward the utility room door.

Soon, Shadra reached the point where they could quietly leave the utility room by opening the door without being noticed.

“…Huh?”

She instinctively realized she had forgotten something.

Why isn’t it moving?!

Seeing Shadra freeze in place, River silently mouthed the words.

Even though she read River’s gestures, Shadra stood still, staring blankly at the utility room door.

“Hah-!”

Finally, as if realizing something, Shadra quickly turned her head and saw the magic circle right behind Loriel and Giral.

‘Crap, this is bad…!’

As Shadra realized what the magic circle was about to do, she made an astonished expression. River, who had been looking at her oddly, also turned her gaze to the magic circle.

“Ah.”

Her eyes widened in realization.

‘I, I have to stop this now…!’

Just as Shadra was about to speak, with those thoughts in mind.

Fwoosh-!

The magic circle glowed with a blinding white light, engulfing them all.

And then.

“Cough-!”

Kim Hyunwoo, who had been sleeping, was suddenly woken by a heavy weight on his chest. Startled, he gasped and quickly sat up, looking at his bed in confusion.

He could soon see it.

“Ah-!”

“Ugh-”

“Ah.”

“Ah…”

On his bed, Loriel and Giral were passionately entwined like beasts.

Beside them, Shadra and River were hugging each other while watching him.

“…?????????”

Kim Hyunwoo stared blankly at the chaos unfolding in front of him, completely stunned. But then, instinctively, he thought that he had to handle the situation and opened his mouth.

“…C-can you stop shaking and just stop?”

“Ah…”

“Huh…!?”

Seeing the two finally snap back to reality, Kim Hyunwoo could only look on with a blank, bewildered expression.
