Chapter 228 – Final Chapter: In-gong
All the lights and sounds were violent. Then it suddenly became quiet. There was no screaming or crying. The demon king had succeeded in destroying the red dragon. He turned the soul of the one who craved destruction back to nothing.
The soul of the red dragon didn’t disappear at once. The gigantic flame which had lost its essence burned gorgeously like the sun.

[You have learnt Extreme Nothingness.]
The letters of white light and the voice of the woman came in succession. At a quick glance, he had gained more than 10 levels at once. The messages rose on top of each other, making them seem endless, while the woman’s voice felt more difficult to hear than usual.
‘What is this Ruling Pheromones?’
In-gong breathed out as he thought about it. His exhausted stamina, magic power. and aura were immediately refreshed by the level-up effect. In-gong closed his eyes. Somehow, he felt like sleeping.
However, he couldn’t sleep just yet. There were still things which needed to be cleaned up.
‘Master!’
“Prince!”
“Shutra!”
Three voices called out behind him at the same time. There was no need for him to open the mini-map. In-gong raised a fist again, then he turned around as he felt the sadness and pain of the white woman.
The Death Knight was rushing away from Carack as his feelings were being conveyed through the blue aura around him. Resentment, rage, and hatred sought to choke the white woman’s neck, and In-gong felt the Death Knight’s own emotions amidst that vortex of emotion.
In-gong could see that the Death Knight was connected with the indigenous species. The Death Knight had been king of the indigenous species in the past, and the king had lived in deep regret and despair.
In-gong laughed, then he clashed with the Death Knight. In-gong’s clenched fist reached the chest of the Death Knight, causing a deep dent.
The Death Knight then started crumbling slowly from his chest, like old wood crumbling after too much time passed. It was natural. The Death Knight had to endure for too long. He had already been broken in the fight against the demon king.
Then Death rose up, and Conquest pushed against Death. The two powers collided before Death disappeared in red flames. This time, In-gong sighed with relief. At this moment, something seemed to tackle In-gong.
“Shutra!”
It was Caitlin. In-gong hugged her and laughed. Then he understood why had she run to him so urgently. He was able to keep standing in the air due to Conquest, but the flames filling the surroundings were disappearing, making her unable to maintain her position.
It was also true for Carack, who was falling.
“Kuweeeh?”
“Greenie!”
In-gong called out the abbreviated version of Green Wind’s name. It was a desperate call and Green Wind answered. White Eagle flew at maximum speed and caught the falling Carack.
“Hah.”
In-gong felt like he had lost 10 years of his life. The final boss and intermediate bosses were now defeated, so it should be a happy ending. However, it would’ve been a bittersweet ending if Carack had died.
‘There is no happy ending without Carack.’
In-gong laughed at the thought. Then Caitlin got his attention from her spot within In-gong’s arms. In-gong looked down with a questioning expression, only to see Caitlin’s face draw nearer.
He felt a moist and soft texture. Caitlin had touched her lips to his. Moreover, Caitlin’s eyes were wide open. He couldn’t help smiling at the ‘this isn’t it?’ expression on her face.
“What is it?”
In-gong asked as he withdrew. Caitlin pouted and said,
“I don’t know if it is delicious or not.”
In-gong laughed and kissed Caitlin again. Caitlin’s eyes widened at the completely different kiss, then she closed them and hugged In-gong tightly.
However, this didn’t last long because White Eagle had started to roam around In-gong while carrying Carack.
