Chapter 197 - The Clause They Never Told You
The problem lay with the Dragon's Seal.
'The master of a dungeon can exercise absolute authority over all lifeforms within it. Right now, Nazoral is essentially this dungeon's boss monster.'
Absolute command.
That meant that entities officially belonging to the dungeon—like the Lizardmen and the Horn Tribe—could not disobey the Dragon's Seal.
The orders of the one who possessed it were enforced by the system itself. Refusal? That meant death.
You could see it in Atlas. Every time he tried to resist, his head swelled and burned red-hot—on the verge of bursting.
The system didn't allow bugs.
That was why Jhin had struck Atlas's head with a surprise team kill earlier.
'Sure, a player probably can't be controlled by the Dragon's Seal… but still.'
There's always a "what if."
What if—because of the quest tie—the player who had become the Horn Tribe's savior, who was now a part of their fate, became bound to the Seal's power?
