I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

"Roar~!"

A dragon's roar resounded through the sky.

Above the white clouds, a huge red dragon flapped its wings, and on it stood Anno, wearing the green armor called the Armor of Retribution.

In front of Adelaide stood the even larger Black Dragon King, Avalon.

Anno tested the Armor of Retribution many times after putting it on.

This set of growth artifacts, which Elisana described as being exclusively for her dwarf Anor, definitely felt different when worn.

Every part fits perfectly, just like one's own body.

It's much better than the previous Demon Slayer set.

The destination of this trip is Dragon Island.

As for the location of Dragon Island, it can be said to be in Angolos, but it is not in Angolos either.

Specifically, Dragon Island is located in an alternate dimension within Angomulos.

This is why Dragon Island was never found during the thousands of years that the World-Destroying Demon Dragon was sealed away.

Moreover, because Dragon Island was also sealed, the number of dragons that had been left outside was decreasing in battle.

However, with the emergence of the world-destroying demon dragon, Dragon Island was unsealed, and some of the dragons on Dragon Island escaped.

In the beginning, they also engaged in numerous battles with member states of the alliance.

The Roland Empire was then invaded by dragons.

When Anno first met Sword Saint Christie, the latter had left the capital because of the Dragon Calamity.

Avalon did not tell Anno how many dragons lived on Dragon Island.

There were no statistics on Adelaide's training on Dragon Island.

Therefore, Anno was unaware of the specific strength of Dragon Island.

However, after nearly 1,400 years of recuperation, this race must be extremely powerful now.

If this trip can indeed lead to the signing of a formal alliance with the dragons, bringing them into the alliance, it will greatly enhance the alliance's strength.

Huff!

Avalon, who was leading the way, glanced back at Anno and thought to himself: He entered Dragon Island in his true form without notifying the God Hunters to escort him.

That's courageous!

If Anno seeks the help of the God Hunter for his own safety, and asks the God Hunter to act as his bodyguard...

Avalon would not agree to take Anno to Dragon Island.

Not long ago, the God Hunter was still gathering intelligence on Dragon Island.

It had no intention of leading the way for the dangerous god hunter.

Although relations between the two sides have now eased because of Anno.

But we haven't reached the point of mutual trust yet.

Who knows if the current God Hunters might be thinking about hunting the World-Destroying Demon Dragon?

Whether the World-Destroying Demon Dragon has recovered its strength is top secret information.

Avalon didn't even know.

"But this kid's strength is really increasing at an astounding pace; he's already level 48 without us even realizing it!"

Avalon was, after all, a legendary dragon from the era of the War of the Gods.

He had witnessed the pinnacle of the second-generation Summoning God.

I also know quite a few powerful summoners.

However, if Anno were placed during World War II, he would be an absolute leader among summoners.

Avalon even had a strange thought in his mind.

If Anno was a summoner during World War II, would the second-generation summoner have passed on the divine essence of summoning to Anno before his fall?

Given Anno's strength, if he were to become the third generation of the Summoning God, he would most likely inherit the power of the Summoning God and become a shadow over the gods of the divine realm.

The dragon race will not be purged by the gods after World War II!

That's right, there's something Avalon has never told Anno, and Adelaide hasn't learned about it from Dragon Island either.

That is, during World War II, the dragon race belonged to the faction of the Summoning God.

Dragons were not originally creatures of Ungomulos.

Dragon Island is not in Angolmos.

Avalon believed that Anno would learn about this from the Dragon God during his trip to the Dragon Clan.

The Dragon God is very impressed with the strength that Anno has shown.

In addition, his status as a summoner is why he agreed to let Adelaide follow Anno.

In a sense, this is simply a continuation of the alliance between the dragons and the summoners during World War II.

The journey was intermittent, taking a total of seven days of flying.

Finally, they stopped on a huge island in the ocean.

The island is roughly circular in shape with a diameter of ten kilometers.

But in Anno's memory, this place was not on the map at all.

"No wonder there are no markings on the map. It's thousands of kilometers away from the mainland, and you can't see many islands along the way."

There must be no other creatures here besides sea creatures!

but......"

Anno surveyed the area from the air and asked Adelaide, "This isn't Dragon Island yet, is it?"

Although the entire island is covered by vast forests, it's not like there's not a single dragon to be seen.

"This is just an intermediate stop!"

Adelaide explained, "There's a special teleportation array on the island that can take you to Dragon Island."

"I see!"

Anno nodded, then had Adelaide land with Avalon.

However, during the landing, Anno suddenly noticed a group of small black dots moving on the island's coastline.

"That is..."

Anno immediately activated [Far Vision] to look, and was surprised to find that the small black dots below were creatures with two horns on their heads, dragon scales on their skin, but human bodies.

"Half-dragon!"

Anno recognized the creature instantly.

Andre, one of the investigators, is now a half-dragon.

The sea creatures, by obtaining the blood of the dragons of Adelaide, developed a potion that, when given to humans, could turn them into mindless half-dragons.

Andrei is the only half-dragon who has regained his sanity.

Having lost his human identity, he chose to join the Investigators and serve Anno.

Furthermore, Hidden Dragon City, which seals the World-Destroying Demon Dragon and the Deep Sea Demoness, appears to be a city of half-dragons.

Anno thought that there were no more half-dragons on the continent of Ungomulos.

Who would have thought that so many half-dragons lived on this island?

On the island's beaches alone, hundreds of half-dragons gathered.

However, these half-dragons were not very strong.

Among hundreds of people, only one is at level four!

In Anno's memory, the half-dragons' combat talent was quite high.

Andrei has now become the strongest among the Investigators, and even Steinbeck is no match for him.

It doesn't make sense that these half-dragons are of such a low level.

But Anno understood the reason in the next instant.

"So many half-dragons are confined to a small island, living a life of isolation from the world."

Unless someone with freakishly exceptional cultivation talent appears, it's impossible for a powerful individual to emerge.

No matter how strong your fighting talent is, you can't improve your strength by fishing and farming every day.

Boom!

When Avalon and Adelaide landed on the island, the gathered half-dragons immediately came to the dragons' side and bowed respectfully.

"The so-called half-dragons are servants and subordinate races of the dragon race. For years, they have been guarding the seal of Dragon Island here!"

Avalon glanced down at the trembling half-dragon and explained to Anno.

Anno clicked his tongue, looking regretful, and said, "What a waste!"
