332 Great Forest Dragon 2 (2/2)

”Haha! Don't be afraid. We are like ants to them. They don't care about us,” Graham spoke reassuringly. Surely enough, the dragons didn't seem to be bothered by the presence of intruders. They realized humans were around, but that was it. Soon, they began to look away.

'Hm… can we speak to dragons like we can to Kongs?'

Joonbum thought as he looked at these dragons. The reason for his visit was to figure that out in the first place.

[It's possible, of course.]

Joonbum's eyes grew large. It was a voice that came right through his head. A giant dragon looked at Joonbum with a hint of a smile in its eyes. Joonbum couldn't even think about how to react. When he got back to his senses and turned back, Jinpok and Doral were looking at him. And so did the others.

”I heard it too.”

”Yeah.”

”D-dragon… was that the dragon?”

Jinpok and Doral nodded and Hyungsun Park nodded also. They were all so shocked and speechless. Graham then added, ”Shall I tell them our side of the story then?”

Joonbum, Jinpok, and Doral were all surprised. Old man Graham suddenly began to walk forward, and when he was about 20 meters away from the party, his body began to distort. His skin stretched and his body began to change shape.

”Aaaargh!”

”W-what's that?”

”MONSTER!”

Bijet and the others became shocked and froze. Graham soon turned into a giant dragon with two pairs of wings on its back.

”D…dragon!”

”A golden dragon!”

A shiny, golden dragon flexed its four wings as it stood. It was so huge that the other dragons looked much smaller in comparison.

'So, he was a dragon after all.'

Joonbum thought and an answer came right after.

[Think of it as a hobby of mine.]

Everyone became shocked and stood amazed at front of the golden dragon. Joonbum spoke out.

”Why did you reveal yourself to us?” Joonbum asked and the golden dragon looked on calmly.

[Because you are the Emperor of the Empire, and the representative of all surviving humans of this world.]

”W…what?!”

”E-emperor?!”

”E-Emperor Joonbum!”

All of them except Jinpok and Doral became shocked again.

”What do you want from me?”

[We do not want to be disturbed. We will not allow hostility against us. But if you will still proceed…]

He did not add any more words, but it was easy to see what the dragon wanted to add.
