Chapter 91
The Absolute Throne (1)
After a full day of continuous training, Arthur completed his task with the group. It was not ordinary training, but a direct transfer of a seasoned killer's experience; he taught them the fundamentals of swordsmanship, how to fight in direct confrontations, the arts of silent assassination, the crafting of primitive weapons, and even how to make use of monster corpses after killing them.
So that nothing he said or demonstrated would be lost, Arthur purchased an empty notebook from the Dokkaebi Bag and carefully wrote down all the important points, then handed it to the group's leader. Joy spread across everyone's faces—not only because they had met Arthur again, but because they felt that this notebook was a true treasure, an opportunity that could completely change their fate.
Arthur calmly opened his personal window:

Dragon Core Agniel – Level 5

---
Arthur looked at the dragon core for a few moments, then spoke inwardly to the system:
'System, with my current strength, can I consume the Level 5 Dragon Core Agniel?'
| You can, but the success rate is low. |
"Alright…"
A faint smile appeared on his face. He grabbed the core and swallowed it in one motion without hesitation. Before the transformation began, he ordered those around him to step back and protect him from any external interference.
In the next moment, flames ignited violently within his body. The heat was unbearable, as if tongues of fire were tearing his organs apart from the inside. Blood flowed from his nose, mouth, and eyes, and his body trembled violently, as though it were on the verge of collapse.
His body began to crack, like clay dried under a scorching sun. Yet Arthur clung to his mind, maintaining his awareness and focus, forcibly drawing the core's energy into himself.
| You are now undergoing transformation into Dragon Mode |
A groan of pain escaped his chest involuntarily. He leaned against the wall, trying to remain steady. His skin burned, and his clothes and mask vanished, as the system automatically transferred them into storage. His naked body was revealed, though the scorching air around him prevented anyone from seeing its details.
Scales began to form across his skin—thick and hard—and long, sharp horns emerged from his forehead. His body transformed into a terrifying fusion of human and dragon.
Dragon Mode – Level 1.
Arthur opened his eyes, now transformed into sharp, vertical red dragon eyes. His hands and feet became deadly claws, and dark red scales covered his entire body. His mouth filled with sharp, cutting teeth.
Arthur smiled in his new, powerful and terrifying form—
then canceled the transformation and returned to his human shape. The system automatically restored his clothes. A calm smile appeared on his face.
'Now… I'm stronger.'
He left the station, heading toward the location Kim Dokja had told him about—the place where the King Selection event would occur.
During the previous period, his necromancy skill had developed significantly. He made the trainees fight the skeletal soldier, and each time one died, he used the next corpse, steadily increasing the learning rate.
| Exclusive Skill: Necromancer
The dead are under your command
Learning Rate: 80%
Skill Level: F
Number of Followers: 5/3 |
"When the learning rate exceeds one hundred, the skill will evolve… now I can summon five creatures. I have the dragon Agniel, and two human skeletons…"
He continued on his path, trying to find unique monsters, but found nothing except a single wolf. He killed it immediately, turned it into a skeleton, and stored it in the Spatial Cloak.
After about half a day, he finally arrived.
A blue scenario barrier stood before him. The moment he entered, a new window appeared:
---

1. The ruler must be braver than all others
2. The throne does not accept a weak ruler
3. The ruler's flag must be black
4. To obtain the throne, all neighboring rulers must be eliminated
Remaining rulers: 15
Arthur smiled and moved swiftly. His flag had already turned into a dark purple shade, and all he needed now was to absorb one more flag.
"Where… where…"
The word echoed in his mind as he searched.
Remaining rulers: 14
"So… it's begun."
He dashed toward the shrine Kim Dokja had told him about—the place where he would need his help. Holding his sword, he leapt and soared above everyone's heads.
Before him stood a ruler with one eye, his flag similar to Arthur's but slightly lighter.
Arthur stood before him and smiled with deadly calm.
"Give me the flag… or die."
The ruler, Cha Sangkyung, activated his skill:
Mind Reading – Level 2.
A message appeared before him, and his body trembled in fear:
"A sacred demonic entity… something that must never be provoked."
Without a fight, he handed over the flag. Arthur merged the two flags, and his turned black.
Remaining rulers: 13
He continued forward and noticed an arrogant ruler sitting on a chair as if he were the king of the world, surrounded by humans moving like slaves—men, women, even small children.
"The Tyrant Ruler."
Arthur activated Dragon Mode and lunged at him.
With a single strike—one incredibly fast and powerful motion—
he tore off his head and remained standing in the air.
Everything happened within five seconds, to the point that some people stood frozen, staring at Arthur as if he had appeared out of nowhere.
Arthur smiled calmly, then released a dark, bloody aura. The corpse transformed into a special skeleton and bowed before him.
All eyes were on Arthur as he scanned the faces… until he found him.
Kim Dokja.
Arthur canceled the transformation and descended.
"Finally found you, you impatient bastard."
Kim Dokja laughed.
"Aren't you the one who killed the small dragon and ruined the scenario?"
Both of them laughed.
Arthur looked at the six remaining kings.
"Hand over your flags… or die."
But before anyone could respond—whether to fight or anything else—
The ceiling collapsed, and someone fell down with a terrifying aura.
The one person who had made Arthur struggle in battle.
The Supreme King… Yoo Joonghyuk.
Yoo Joonghyuk looked at Kim Dokja with eyes filled with rage.
"Kim Dokja… I will kill you."
