Martial Arts Returnee's Game Broadcast-Chapter 283: The Education of the Cloud Dragon
1.
[This is what I did.]
Ha Eung Eung, who had been sent to make some clouds, ended up causing a massive volcanic eruption that brought disaster to the land.
“This teacher is really worried about the future of their disciple...”
[?]
“If all the lowly creatures to offer tribute are killed, how will you prepare for your old age?”
Haha, old-age preparation should be done when you're young!If you fail old-age preparation twice, the land won't be left standing, you fool!
“Even though the creatures on the land may seem insignificant and crude, you must not annihilate them...”
[I'm not fond of killing either.]
“There’s no need to act obediently just because you’re in front of your teacher... If you were a dragon, just this one journey could make you a great dragon...”
“......”
“Don’t worry... No matter how foolish a disciple you are, you are still my disciple... Even the cruel and wicked instincts you were born with can be corrected under my guidance...”
Haha, I’m really watching a bad kid here!??? : When I was younger, I used to make clouds by blowing up volcanoes...Haha, I didn’t blow them up that big back then, though!Volcanoes should’ve been carefully detonated! Hahaha!Seriously, haha!
Cloud Dragon Azisahab, horrified by the massacre-like behavior Ha Eung Eung displayed, still didn’t give up on guiding her as a teacher.
“You encountered three humans wielding swords on the road... What would you do?”
[With the Taesan Appjeong, I would split the first one in half with my sword.]
“......”
[If the remaining opponents are masters, I would not let my guard down and fight with full strength, making them happy. If not, they would be frozen in fear or turn and flee.]
“......”
[The ones who turn and flee are cowards, so I would use Tangi Gong to smash their heads and kill them. If they decide to fight, after exchanging blows for ten seconds and seeing their strength wane, I would kill them without pain as a reward for amusing me.]
Massacre! D:You killed them!You monster! Demon King’s executioner!
“The right answer is to scare them into submission without killing them... That way, you can avoid unnecessary slaughter while still obtaining tribute, no?”
At Cloud Dragon’s rebuke, Ha Eung Eung grew restless, showing signs of unease and anxiety.
[If you leave any potential for harm, there's no telling when or where someone who has gained strength might try to harm those around me. It’s not good to leave seeds of disaster.]
“That is only the anxiety of someone who isn’t strong enough... It’s the same mistake a young dragon would make...”
[As expected, the only answer is training.]
“Grow stronger... So that you can dominate and make others submit without killing.”
Ha Eung Eung nodded enthusiastically, her eyes shining with admiration for the Cloud Dragon.
Why are you getting treated like a little dragon though?Is this even a human?Even the dragon sees this as inhuman, treating her like a young dragon!Cloud Dragon Azisahab, teaching moral education as a true teacher.Just because you exploded a volcano and didn’t kill everyone doesn’t make you a true teacher, right? Haha!
One comment in the chat caught Ha Eung Eung’s attention, and she paused, deep in thought.
[So, what will you use the clouds you gathered for this time?]
“These clouds are for the training manual...”
“?”
“If you’re a disciple of the Cloud Dragon... you should learn how to control clouds yourself, shouldn’t you?”
It sounded reasonable when said aloud.
If it weren’t for the dragon who had sent her to cause volcanic explosions under the pretense of a trial, it would have sounded quite sensible.
Even Eom Gil-dong, who was nearby cleaning statues, feared what kind of stunt she was about to pull next, looking at her with suspicion.
[Cloud Pot]
[Grade - Legendary]
[Category - Storage]
[Description - A pot made by Cloud Dragon Azisahab to store and retrieve clouds. It’s a training treasure made for newly born dragons to learn cloud manipulation.]
[Mungemungye Gloves]
[Grade - Legendary]
[Category - Gloves]
[Description - Gloves made by Cloud Dragon Azisahab that allow the wearer to touch and shape clouds. These are training treasures made so that newly born dragons can play with clouds.]
“Wear these gloves and take the clouds from the pot... Today we’ll have a session to make clouds in various shapes.”
Eom Gil-dong looked at the Cloud Dragon with dead eyes, as if his spirit had left his body.
‘Isn’t that something you’d teach kids at kindergarten, like clay art?’
Seeing Cloud Dragon’s behavior, teaching like it was for a baby dragon, a hollow laugh escaped him.
She was offering him stolen cigarettes, but now she was engaging in this childish activity.
If she didn’t kick the pot away in a fit of defiance, it would be a miracle.
Why are your eyes so full of expectation?Hahaha, childish Gladiator!How can you not get excited when playing with clouds?
It seemed that Ha Eung Eung didn’t really dislike it, though.
She seemed quite interested.

But Ha Eung Eung wasn’t the only one intrigued.
Why are you the only one playing with clouds?I’m about to buy the sensory link! Let’s get it!Eom Gil-dong can’t lose! Let’s do a cloud wash with sensory link!You’ve already lost, though.Just wash dishes at home, damn it!Is this Eom Gil-dong or Pong-Pong-dong?Dishwashing Club, haha!Gil-dong, stay safe, I’m off to play with clouds.Me too!Me too, yup.
“Why are the viewers leaving in droves?!! Come back, you bastards!!”
Suddenly, the collective exodus of viewers, like they were returning to their childhood and ready to play with mud!
Eom Gil-dong wished for them to at least kick the pot away instead of acting like this.
The catastrophe in the Kelligan volcanic region.
After 5,000 soldiers were wiped out in an instant, Armored Taesong put up a large reward for the appearance of the Demon King.
The military had lost time because the Demon King had been allowed to wreak havoc without anyone noticing it.
“My own incompetence has led to the misfortune of the Eorimgun... If the Demon King moves again, I will surely avenge the fallen generals.”
“Your Majesty’s grace is beyond measure.”
“Remember this. No matter how trivial the sign, if you suspect the Demon King has appeared, we must not miss it.”
Armored Taesong heightened the level of vigilance.
Perhaps his efforts were being rewarded, as a cyber guard appeared at the palace, summoned with a summoning effect.
“I bring urgent news, Your Majesty! The signs of the Demon King’s appearance have been detected!”
“So, it has finally come. Speak.”
“After the disaster in the Kelligan volcanic region, the KOSPI composite stock index has been plummeting every day. This is definitely the economic invasion of the Demon King!”
“...Whose report is this?”
“It’s the economic report from the Chairman of the Daehan Cheolguk Stock Exchange.”
“If you don’t want to be fired before your term is over, stop blaming the Demon King and come up with a stock-saving plan by the next report.”
“Understood, Your Majesty!”
As the guard was recalled and vanished, Armored Taesong took a moment to close his eyes and rest.
But when another guard was summoned, his eyes snapped open.
“What is it?”
“We’ve detected signs of the Demon King’s appearance, Your Majesty!”
“Really? Where did this happen?”
“It’s happening nationwide!”
“That’s not good.”
This might actually be worth listening to.
Armored Taesong’s eyes gleamed as he solemnly asked.
“Did locusts swarm the nation? Or did a massive hailstorm cover all coastal cities?”
“Your Majesty... isn’t that a sign of the nation’s collapse? It’s not that severe, but property prices have crashed nationwide.”
“......”
“However, the drastic rise in property prices is considered a risk comparable to the Demon King’s economic invasion, so the Prime Minister warned that we must make plans for it.”
“I will be sure to take note. Have the Prime Minister request an audience during the next report.”
Armored Taesong would rather have the Demon King attack than deal with the economic disaster.
The simultaneous collapse of the real and financial economies was a disaster without form, more terrifying than the Demon King’s assault, as there was nothing they could do to stop it.
In the face of this great crisis, Armored Taesong pondered how to respond.
“A great disaster, Your Majesty!”
“What now? With the stock market and real estate collapsing, is the next crisis bankruptcy and mass unemployment? Or has the deficit occurred?”
“What? What does this have to do with the Demon King? I bring urgent news from the Astronomer.”
Finally, Armored Taesong’s face relaxed.
“The Astronomer, so this isn’t related to the damned economic issues! So, did the signs of the Demon King’s appearance truly manifest this time?”
“Correct, Your Majesty! There are widespread reports of ominous black clouds in the sky across the nation. This is proof that the heavens are in turmoil.”
“The heavens?”
“Something strange has even happened above the palace. Look at the sky, Your Majesty!”
When Armored Taesong and his attendants hurried outside, a massive black cloud hung ominously in the sky, blocking the sun.
“What in the world is that?”
“Eight massive hands are breaking the tree that connects the heavens and earth. This is surely a sign that the country’s fate is in imminent danger.”
“Ambassador Yi Wi-dam! Were you also watching the sky?”
Yi Wi-dam, the best Astronomer in Daehan Cheolguk, skilled in astronomy, yin-yang theory, and feng shui, was nodding seriously as he observed the movement of the clouds.
‘I’ve never heard of such strange clouds, but I can’t say I don’t know in front of the King or I’d be exiled immediately.’
The words were plausible, and Armored Taesong asked seriously.
“So what should we do about it?”
“Defend the nation with all your might, Your Majesty. If we fail to overcome this crisis, Daehan Cheolguk will walk the path of extinction.”
“I will immediately issue a full mobilization order!”
As with nations relying on astrologers, Daehan Cheolguk was walking a dangerous path.
