After all the tiring and difficult battles ended.
What I needed was rest.
There were still many things to investigate about the remaining situation, and the domestic Holder community was bustling every day due to the <Villain> suppression, the biggest incident in history
But honestly, it was out of my interest for now.
My only goal right now was one.
I need to sleep.
To return to the cozy home and sleep without dreams as much as the overdue sleep.
Since I founded <Anti-Villain>.
I hadnt had a comfortable sleep for even a day.
Because I was worried that the <Villain> guys, who didnt hesitate to use any means or methods, would target around me rather than me.
Because of my greed to sweep away <Villain>. I was worried that my surroundings might get hurt.
Such worries and complex emotions overlapped, I didnt even remember when I last slept soundly.
I couldnt even sleep well because my whole body isnt in good condition.
When I arrived home, I cut off all the pouring calls and messages, and immediately went to bed.
How long did I sleep?
Thats how I woke up after sleeping restlessly.
Blinking to remove drowsiness, I turned on my turned off cell phone.
[PM 8:32]
Its 8:30 at night.
I remember it was around this time when I came home yesterday.
I must have slept for more than just 30 minutes.
This crazy bastard.
My mind awakens in an instant.
Somehow this crazy bastard seemed to have slept for a whole day.
Its my first time in my life.
Not at all proud.
Oh my, how long did I sleep?
I scratched my head in embarrassment.
No matter how tired I was, I had never slept for 24 hours before, so clearly I had been in an excessive state of tension until now.
I hadnt slept at all the day before going into the <Villain> suppression operation, so it was understandable.
There are a lot of contacts.
Countless calls, text messages, SMS contacts, etc. were filling up my inbox.
Most of them were familiar names such as Kim Chae-eun, Kang Juyeon, Moon Ga-eun, Tak Won-ho, Kim Myeong-hyun Close friends, acquaintances, or academy teachers.
At a glance, there were also many contacts from unfamiliar numbers I saw for the first time.
Maybe because it was such a historically huge operation. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
There wasnt a single person who wasnt interested in this incident, whether it was the domestic Holder community, the press, or foreign media.
Meanwhile, I was away from all those contacts and slept for 24 hours straight.
Ill reply to the contacts later.
I postponed replying to the contacts for the time being.
Since I had collapsed and slept first, there was a lot to organize personally.
First of all, the runes I acquired after the battle with <Villain>.
At the time, too much information popped up to check everything, but now I had time to organize and grasp it.
Fifteen Was it?
The total number of acquired runes was 15.
I was worried there might be too many, but fortunately overlapping runes were common for skilled Holders, so the number of possible acquisitions was less than I thought.
The types of runes acquired were diverse.
Things like [Starlight Assassination], which I wanted to get from the Archer series, or [Weakness Detection], a common rune for the Assassin series, [Triple Saber], from the Warrior series, etc They were basic runes that clearly assisted the Holder.
There was one thing they had in common.
Interestingly, the levels of the acquired runes were quite high.
<Rune Information>
Name: Starlight Assassination
Grade: Normal
Level: 10
<Rune Information>
Name: Weakness Detection
Grade: Normal
Level: 9
The levels of the acquired runes were quite high like this.
Maybe because they were the Holders I defeated or inflicted great damage on that contributed to my victory.
Their level must have been high so their rune mastery was high.
Huh?!
I was so surprised at the conscious language I suddenly heard and exclaimed.
Did this punk just talk?
Ive been talking all this time. My master just ignored it.
Wow Amazing. We can really communicate, huh?
I expected and experimented with this, but it was still amazing that it became reality.
Although Bons voice was stronger and huskier than I thought, it wasnt uncomfortable to listen to.
I said I dont like it. Twice.
Oh oh. Sorry. I didnt know youd hate it that much.
And I regretted it right away when affinity and abilities decreased after naming it.
People and contracted beings alike prefer cool names after all.
I want to change it.
Is there a way to change it?
When I regain my power.
Power?
I asked again at Bons sudden words.
Flapping it magnificent bony wings roughly, it answered.
Yes. I originally had power. Very strong.
But youre very strong now too?
I was stronger! But my memories were erased. Ive lost too many pieces now.
I dont really understand, but anyway, you can change your name if you regain that?
Yes. To be precise, I can regain my name too.
Bons lost pieces.
It was highly likely the memories of the dragon that was the original owner of the dragon heart.
Since the current Bon only had bony pieces left and was newly assembled, it was a kind of undead.
It said it could find its name too if it regained those
Somehow I have to try to find them.
It looks like Bon itself doesnt know the method either, but still, since my contracted being doesnt like the name I gave it I have to change it for it sake.
Master. I like it here.
While I was lost in thought for a moment.
Bon spoke to me again.
I immediately showed delight at those words.
Huh? Do you really? Then do you wanna keep living here?
Yes. I want to be here when the master is gone.
I was already considering Bons lodging anyway.
Originally, Holders who make [Taming Contracts] find lodging themselves for contracted monsters if they are small or puny in size.
They raise them in their own rooms or nearby yards.
But even if they get just a little bigger, it becomes a problem.
Even though Holders know the monsters are tamed, to ordinary people they just look like monsters.
So Holders that make [Taming Contracts] pay a fee to the Holder Association and protect monsters in certain dungeons.
But I have no need to do that.
In the first place, Goblin Village is my property.
Since I was the first finder and first raider
I had priority rights over all rights.
Naturally there was absolutely no problem letting Bon live here.
The biggest problem was if Bon didnt like this dungeon, but looking at it now, fortunately that didnt seem to be the case.
Craaahhhhh-.
Bon ascended with rough flaps of its wings.
Like a fish that met water, it cried out freely while flying.
Its mood seemed good, and as the contractor I felt good too, but
Somehow that cry was unpleasant.
Was that thing originally that loud?
And a creepy voice coming from somewhere.
The bone dragon roared!
Keureup! Damn it, lets get out of here!
It was a conversation between the monsters inside this dungeon.
The Goblins.
While looking at that strange sight, I held my head.
Ah.
This [Language] rune.
It even lets me hear languages of monsters I dont want to hear.
