Episode 98 is the ninety eighth episode of Karsearin: Adventures of a Red Dragon (Webtoon).
Synopsis[]
Karsel's army brutally trampled the empire's army. Pluto had injured his shoulder and was slumped on a rock in a state of exhaustion. Pluto said it's over, with their commander-in-chief dead, 100,000 soldiers were nothing to write home about, they should've just had Darios come alone from the beginning. Darios said the situation was certainly dire... but he also couldn't ignore Libeid either, there was a risk of a counterattack if they discovered that he was gone, he had better hurry back. Pluto smiled and said why Darios don't take a break before heading back, he's sure he's also exhausted, and that's some good entertainment right here, dang, their army knew how to fight, they don't even have to step in. Darios asked how Pluto can joke about such a gruesome scene. Pluto answered why not, Darios was happy that they're winning. Darios' brow furrowed deeply and said they can't celebrate people dying, Pluto, they may be their enemies, but show some decency, it's the least they can do. The smile on Pluto's lips grew even deeper and smiled and said Darios was saying they should grieve after killing them, then he should've been a farmer instead of a knight, he could kill their enemies a thousand times over if it meant their army's survival, Darios.
Vera appeared between the rocks, dragged Scarla with her and asked oh, hey, Darios, when he did get here. Pluto asked Vera, she's okay, what... she's dragging. Vera said oh, it's Scarla, the highest-ranked exorcist of the dawn, she put up a tough fight, she managed to win when it became an endurance contest, she brought her over in case they could use her as a hostage, but looked like the fight was already over. Pluto sighed and said yeah, victory was theirs, then shall they return. Darios said yes... ...it's time to return to being vicious invaders.
A long time ago, beyond the passage of time... there existed a group of titans. They sustained the world through their immense power bringing stability to the realm. However, rather than endlessly sustain the world... ...the titans sought to live their own lives even for a limited time... ...hence, the titans created the strongest possible body capable of bearing their divine power and transferred their spirits inside. They abandoned their divine duties and became beings with limitations. And so, they transformed into a new species known as Dragons. The other gods became furious when the titans' absence forced them to take on their duties. However, they were constrained to maintain balance in the world, and had no means to punish the unruly dragons. To exact retribution against the traitors, the gods invoked their right of creation... ...and gave birth to humans. However, the human body was too frail. Too weak to attack individually, they fought dragons as a group. However, born within the balance of the world, the humans were no match for the dragons who were free from that balance. Instead of following their creators' will... ...humankind chose to submit to the immediate fear. The gods grew even more enraged. They began seeking means to punish the dragons, even if it meant breaking the laws. They ended up reversing the secret art that the titans had used in the past... and created the Almighty Creature. The ultimate bio-weapon to kill the dragons.
Charlene said legend has it that the ancient titans created The Vessel of the Soul, it was the secret art they used to create bodies for themselves so they could break free from the obligations that bound them. Yuna asked what, the Almighty Creature, but she heard that this is actually a Super Dragon, the leader of all dragons, that doesn't contradict the theory that it was created to kill the dragons. Charlene said umm... perhaps the legend varies by region, a Super Dragon. Yuna asked hmm, so which legend should they believe in. Arin saw this and said how boring, he can't even understand what they're talking about. Seton said he heared him... they can't even join in. Seton saw something and said look, a village.
Pete fell on the bed and said aaah... ...beds are treasures of humanity... Seton said he can't believe how relieved they were... even though the six of them have to share a room since the rest were occupied. Yuna said that's because they've been sleeping out in the open for more than two weeks. Aria said first things first... ...take off their clothes, everyone. Seton was surprised.
Aria, wearing an apron, did the laundry. Charlene, who was watching this scene with Pete pulled herself out of the window frame, said oh... Aria was talking about laundry, that remined her, she said she used to live at a farm. Pete said the apron looked surprisingly good on Aria, it looked even better than the monstrous sword she swinged... Arin yawned and asked Aria, how long it will take for their clothes to dry, he doesn't like the garb they borrowed. Aria picked up her great sword and said Arin please be patient. Aria began to infuse mana into the hand holding the sword. The great sword soon became hot, emitting pure white steam, and Aria raised the sword and slowly began to iron the clothes. Someone asked whoa, what Aria is doing. Aria answered she's ironing the clothes. Pete thought Seton would faint if he saw this... he can't believe Aria is using her sword like that. Time passed and all the clothes were ironed. Arin was excited to wear the clothes that Aria gave him and shouted wow, it felt so soft. Aria still spoke bluntly that because she ironed them. Aria asked by the way, where Seton and Yuna were. Arin answered oh, Seton, the two of them went to go spend money.
Someone said hmm... he can't believe no one was interested in these gems... There were the gems that were attached to the Dazzling Dragon Sword in Seton's hands. At the general store, Seton asked not even the general store is willing to buy them, huh. Yuna answered of course not, Seton can't expect people in a small village to buy jewels, he obviously have no idea how the world works, let's buy horses when they get to a bigger village, until then, they'll have to travel by foot. Seton said ugh... A gracious-looking lady at the general store took care of the items and said here were all the items she asked for. Yuna smiled brightly and answered her, thanked her. The lady at the general store asked oh, they both looked so young, they're traveling together. Yuna answered pardon. The lady at the general store smiled and continued spoke that she meant, they two look so good together, she was wondering if they were eloping. Seton blushed at the reaction of the lady who smiled brightly, and he shouted a-absolutely not. On the other hand, Yuna was looking at him with a playful expression and asked why he does say that, Seton, the idea is of eloping with her upsetting to him. Seton answered o-of course not, he was just taken aback. Seton said wait... Yuna was perhaps enjoying seeing her all flustered like this. Yuna said ahaha, of course not.
As the sun was setting, the sky began to turn red. The evening sky was covered with a huge crimson curtain. Aria was leaning against a tree trunk, looking at the blazing red sky. And Arin lay down on Aria's lap, his long red hair that reached down to his waist completely disheveled. Suddenly, Aria looked down and asked Arin, they shall go inside if he's feeling sleepy, resting his head on a pillow is more comfortable. Arin's eyes closed and answered nah, he prefer her lap, Aria, it's so much comfier, he want to stay here a bit longer. Suddenly Aria asked, Arin, he does have a dream. For a moment, Arin's eyes lit up and shouted a dream, to become a warrior, of course, he want to swing his sword in the wilderness.... Aria said she... used to have a dream as well., a commoner's dream is nothing special, get married, have children... ...it's not much of a dream, really, it hasn't even been a year but it felt like ages ago, now, mundane life has become a dream for her... Aria stroked Arin's cheeks, and he asked Aria... Aria smiled. Then Aria's smile, expression, and emotions disappeared. Aria said let's get up now, Arin already dirtied the clothes she just washed for him, if he keep soiling them, she's going to make him do the laundry next time. Arin was surprised and shouted aww, no fair.
Someone said ah, that was a good rest, thanked innkeeper for having them. The innkeeper asked they were all perhaps heading to Mount Madain, if they were, then be careful, the Mountain... ...is full of scary bandits.
