Spending My Retirement In A Game

"You... You’re trying to tell me that you are Trygan’s Father?" The Half-Dragon asked confused, and Eisen nodded his head with a smile on his face, "Basically, yes. Now, you won with an overwhelming victory. Just one person left to fight you." Eisen said with a smile on his face, and the Half-Dragon stared just staring at him.

"I... I don’t understand..." Confused, the Half-Dragon took a step back, seemingly trying to figure out what was going on, before Eisen slowly made his way to the edge of the Arena to leave, because he wouldn’t be the one to ’Fight’ the Half-Dragon.

On his way out, Eisen leaned in toward Jyuuk with a light smile on his face. "Stand where I was standing before and unsummon all your undead and monsters." The old man told the beastperson, who just looked at him confused but nodded his head, doing just what the old man suggested and stood right where Eisen’s large footprints could still be seen.

"Alright, can the fight start now?" Eisen asked from outside the Arena while he picked his monsters up and made sure that his Golems were outside as well, before the Half-Dragon looked over toward him and slowly nodded his head, even if he somehow seemed to have lost his will to fight against them, but nonetheless prepared to start the fight, pressing his hands together in fists, and from what Eisen could tell, he clad his whole body in Divine Energy, and then he slowly took a step forward, which was the point at which the whole fight started.

Slowly, Eisen just snapped to fullfill the rest of the Half-Dragon’s reward for beating them in the game. His monsters and Golems were already gone, but coincidentally, there still was some of his element all over the place, and it would just be a little bit of an unfair advantage for Jyuuk if it was there, after all.

It was just so, that coincidentally, Eisen’s element was the only thing keeping the ground together, which had priorly been pulled apart and loosened up through the roots, vines and mushrooms which later just withered and disappeared, before then being riddled by numerous tunnels created by the High-Ratman Lord.

So, all of a sudden, the ground collapsed and, just so coincidentally, the only stable place was where Jyuuk was currently standing.

And considering how distracted the Half-Dragon was, he wasn’t really able to react quickly enough, and was pulled down together with the rest of the ground, and ended up getting stuck inbetween the rocks. He probably would have been able to get himself out of it with brute force, but considering that he was really not motivated enough to do so, the Half-Dragon just stayed laying there.

"Oops." Eisen said with a light smile on his face, and everyone slowly turned toward the old man with confused expressions, although there was one person laughing. At first Eisen thought it would be Brody, because he usually was the first to laugh in tense situations, but instead, it was the Half-Dragon.

"Hahah... What a complete loss this was, huh?" He asked with a smile, while Jyuuk climed down toward him to try and finish the plan up. "Hmm? Ah, so you’re trying to Tame me, aren’t you?" The Half-Dragon asked all of a sudden, and the four Commanders looked at Eisen’s group shocked, while the old man himself just crossed his arms and kept listening, even if the commanders wanted to seemingly throw the rules out of the window and attack all of them right now.

"Well, I wasn’t happy being a Boss anyway, so sure, I don’t mind at all." The Half-Dragon said with a smile, and seemingly willingly became one of Jyuuk’s tamed Monsters, even though he seemed to have had a choice.

And soon, a notification appeared in front of everyone.

[The Island Boss has been defeated]

[You are now Level 149]

With a broad grin on his face, Eisen turned around and looked at Sky, "You can deactivate your skill now, if you want." The old man told him, and Sky slowly nodded his head and opened his Grimoire back to the page where the story was supposed to be, before returning the room to what it was before. Even all of the damage that had been created simply disappeared as if nothing ever happened in the first place, before the door that the group had entered through before opened up again.

And with a smile, Eisen simply made his way into the direction of the four High-Lords, and they slowly stepped to the side confused, before Eisen increased his size and reached for the small crystal floating above the thrones.

[You have acquired a Town Core. In order to activate it, you have to be the Master of a Guild]

"Perfect." The old man said with a smile and quickly placed the small crystal into one of the front-pockets of his Leather-Apron, before making his way back toward the door.

"Now then, let’s introduce you five to the others." Eisen told the Boss and his Commanders, although the High-Lizardman seemed to take an issue with it.

"Mens not command us!" He yelled out, but was quickly stopped by the Half-Dragon. "Stop it. Listen to him. Listen to all of them, please." The Half-Dragon said, and slowly, the Lizardman glared at Eisen, although the old man himself didn’t pay attention to him all that much and just made his way out of the door where the rest were already waiting patiently.

And after giving the people from the different groups some quick explanations, Eisen turned to Jyuuk. "Now then, release him again, will you?" The old man asked the Beastperson, who looked at Eisen with a wry smile, "Wait, wasn’t your whole plan to use him to control all the monsters on the island through proxies..?" Jyuuk asked, and Eisen nodded his head.

"It was, but now that I’ve seen what the five of them are actually like, we don’t need to worry. They’re all intelligent enough to be reasoned with, and if they follow such a strong believer in Justice like our new buddy here, we don’t need to worry about that. And I have another, even better idea how to deal with everything." Eisen pointed out, so Jyuuk slowly nodded his head and scratched his neck.

"Well... Then I guess I’m releasing you again?" Jyuuk told the Half-Dragon with a wry smile, but even he didn’t know how to react. "Wait... You want to leave me be?" The Half-Dragon asked, and Eisen nodded his head. "Oh no, not at all. You’ll be working your ass off under the Command of someone else. Those four as well, by the way, but we’ll speak about that later. First off... What’s your name?" Eisen asked the Half-Dragon, and he just shook his head.

"I do not have a name. I have not met my mother, and my Father told me that I, as every dragon, have to earn my name." The Half-Dragon explained, so Eisen slowly nodded his head. "Well, lucky that Jyuuk didn’t name you yet. After all, he would have called you Buroryuu." The old man said with a smile, but Jyuuk just stared at him in shock.

"W-Wait, how did you know?" He asked, and Eisen looked at him with his eyebrows raised, so Jyuuk crossed his arms with a pout and looked to the side, "..That would have been a great name..."

"Anyway. All of you, stay here a little longer and introduce yourselves to them. I’ll go and look for Kiron." Eisen said with a smile, and immediately turned around and made his way through the area in front of the castle, trying to see if he could find Kiron like this already, but when he noticed that he couldn’t, he instead tried to look for some of the others that were in Eisen’s group before.

And they were relatively easy to find. "Eisen!" Bree exclaimed happily as she ran over toward the old man, and Eisen smiled in response and placed his hand onto the young Fey-Kin’s head, looking at Komer and Kirisho as he did so. "Did either of you see Kiron?" He asked, and Komer slowly nodded his head. "I think he just went for a walk, I guess?" He said with a wry smile, and then slowly sighed.

"He was pretty upset about not being able to fight with you." Komer pointed out, and Eisen nodded in response, "Yeah, I know. I’m going to apologize to him about it as well." Eisen told him, before slowly moving his finger through his beard. "But to you as well, I’m sorry that I left on my own earlier. I was just a bit focused on leveling up as quickly as possible, so I wanted to go off alone for a bit to see how it would work out." The old man explained, and Komer, Bree and Kirisho immediately nodded.

"Don’t worry about it~! We know about that as well, so it’s fine!" Bree exclaimed, and Komer nodded immediately afterward, "Definitely, yeah. Although, I have to admit, considering how many we were, it was probably a good idea to split up again. Especially with your golems, who were basically a perfect party on their own..." The Fate Merchant replied, so Eisen chuckled in response.

"Yeah, I know. It’s pretty interesting to see them fight, but I think I’ll try to figure out something else, and just rely on them until I can turn them into Ego-Golems." The old man explained, before he turned over toward Kirisho and nodded at her with a smile, and she just returned a smile to him as well.

"Well... I think I should get going now and see if I can find him anywhere around here." Eisen told them, and then slowly turned around before heading toward the streets of the ruined town, trying to use his Mana-Sight to find Kiron.

And it took a good while, but soon enough, Eisen found him in a small house, just sitting on what seemed to be a chair. The only mana Eisen was seeing was that of Kiron, and it at the very least seemed like he was sitting on something, so Eisen figured that was the case.

Slowly and quietly, the old man stepped into the ruined house and quickly saw Kiron sitting on a staircase leading to the next floor, his Sword leaning against the wall next to him, even if it barely fit into the room like that.

"Hey there." Eisen said with a smile, and immediately, Kiron raised his head up to look at the old man. "Ah... Grandfather..." He replied, seemingly more sad than mad at this point, and Eisen just continued smiling at him.

"I’m sorry about before, really. I know you’re my Knight, and you want to be there to protect me, and I just went off with some Golems. That was pretty insensitive of me, wasn’t it?" The old man asked, and Kiron quickly stood up and shook his head. "It’s not like that! I just... I couldn’t..." Kiron muttered quietly as his gaze moved over toward his Giant Greatsword, and now, Eisen realized what his issue actually was.

"I see... Well, if you want to show off, how about I introduce you to someone that might make that possible?" Eisen asked with a light chuckle, and Kiron looked at Eisen with wide open eyes, "Sh-Showing off is unbecoming of a Knight, I shouldn’t think like that!" Kiron exclaimed, but Eisen just smiled at him and stepped up next to his Draconic Grandson, placing his arm around his shoulder.

"Don’t worry, it’s not unbecoming at all. And you would actually help me out a fair bit if you did, actually." The old man told Kiron, who slowly nodded his head in reply and just went along with his Grandfather, back toward the area in front of the Boss-Room.

And a certain other Half-Dragon there was getting pretty excited when he took a look at Kiron, and the Crystal Half-Dragon was pretty excited at seeing another person that seemed to be just like him.
