My Tamed Beast Returned with a Dragon Chapter 32 - This Doesn’t Seem Like an Ordinary Situation

As the hunters held their breath, the sniper loaded a bullet infused with maximum power. A rifle specially crafted from dungeon byproducts.

The muzzle was aimed at the dungeon boss, sleeping soundly.

The sniper, Kang Aram, licked her lips. Just one shot. Before the battle even began, she had only one chance to inflict maximum damage on the dungeon boss.

A flash of fire erupted from the muzzle. The explosion sounded as if a cannon had been fired.

Gya-ga-ga-ga!

Struck hard in the head, Psychopsis went berserk. Good. Kang Aram snapped her fingers.

It would have been great if the shot had blown its head off, but its solid skull made that impossible. Still, it had been hit hard enough to drive it into a frenzy, and that was enough.

The healers’ debuffs hit at just the right moment. The bleeding Psychopsis was immediately swarmed by Eunsae’s beasts. In particular, Dodari, now in its full-grown form, was nearly the same size as the boss and took the lead.

Kyaooooong!

Pwoooosh!

Watching their assault, Eunsae shouted.

“Im Yuseong!”

Im Yuseong’s fiery torrent swept through the area. The vortex of flames seemed to engulf Psychopsis, but unfortunately, it slipped away at the last moment.

“It’s fine! Ranged attackers, aim for the torso! Maintain a safe distance, and whatever you do, don’t stare directly at its wings!”

Eunsae repeated the warning several times. The ranged dealers gritted their teeth and unleashed their attacks.

However, now fully alert, the dungeon boss wasn’t taking any significant damage. Infuriated at having its sleep disturbed, Psychopsis twisted its body violently.

Gya-ga-gak!

A sharp claw pierced Cookie’s side. Even as blood poured from its wound, Cookie rammed its horns into Psychopsis.

“Haneuli, Roar!”

Kuwaaaang!

The black-horned leopard’s bloodlust overwhelmed Psychopsis, making it stagger for a moment.

“Lee Jun-il, use ‘Crush’!”

Having been waiting for Eunsae’s signal, Lee Jun-il leaped into the fray, his weapon wrapped in fiery energy. His unique ability activated.

Moving swiftly, he slashed at the base of the dungeon boss’s wing. A critical hit.

“Ugh!”

Maybe it was the thrill of landing a successful strike—Lee Jun-il almost made the mistake of staring at the patterns on its wings. Before he could freeze, Dandelion grabbed him and tossed him far away.

The fierce battle continued. The attackers showed no signs of retreating, and an enraged Psychopsis let out a piercing wail.

Its wings spread wide, revealing dazzling eye-like patterns.

“Everyone, look away!”

But humans have eyes, and avoiding something visible isn’t always possible. Even with all their precautions, the AA-rank dungeon boss’s ‘Allure’ skill was no joke.

“…Ah.”

Just one. A single healer missed the timing and their pupils went dull.

Another healer beside them immediately tried to dispel the status effect—but ‘Allure’ transferred. An ability upgrade that hadn’t been seen before.

“Hunter Yoo Eunsae, the healers—!”

The hunter who shouted in alarm also succumbed, their gaze turning vacant. Just making eye contact was enough to spread the effect.

Like a plague, hysteria spread among the hunters. Those who realized what was happening immediately backed away.

Eunsae also distanced herself. Analyzing the situation rationally took priority.

Even without her command, Dodari lunged at Psychopsis’s shoulder and bit down—right where Lee Jun-il had slashed.

Gya-ga-ga-gak!

For a moment, Allure’s effect wavered. But only for a moment. The hunters were still trapped in their delusions, unable to distinguish friend from foe, turning their weapons on each other.

‘There’s no sane healer left.’

No one had been mortally wounded yet, but if this continued, there would definitely be casualties. What should she do? What could she do…?

“Byeol!”

[Yes, Nuna!]

The little one clinging to her back answered immediately. Eunsae pleaded urgently.

“Can you snap them out of it?”

[……I’ll try!]

It was a difficult request. Byeol wasn’t yet skilled enough at handling magic to use mental spells properly.

She knew the theory, but without proper control, it would cause chaos—just like last time.

‘Snap them out of it… Snap them out of it…’

Then, something flashed through Byeol’s mind.

‘Oh! The fairy tale Nuna read to me!’

The Snow Queen. A story about a protagonist with a frozen heart, who regains kindness thanks to a friend with a warm and sincere heart.

‘Snow! I haven’t seen it myself yet…! But it’s supposed to be super cold, white, and fluffy. I bet humans will wake up if they feel it!’

As Byeol cast her magic, the sky rumbled. Dark, ominous clouds gathered.

Eunsae panicked.

“B-Byeol, what did you do?”

[It’s going to snow! If they feel the cold, they’ll get better!]

Eunsae cursed internally. She should have explained better.

But it was too late. The first snowflakes had already started falling. In the middle of the jungle.

And it wasn’t just snow—it was an unprecedented blizzard.

Byeol’s understanding of snow, shaped by fairy tales, was that it turned the entire world white.

Eunsae’s breath became visible in the air. As the temperature plummeted, she quickly opened her subspace and pulled out a thick coat.

Then, she wrapped Byeol up tightly.

[N-Nuna?]

“You might catch a cold. Byeol, can you warm up my beasts and the people hiding over there?”

[Yes!]

Golden-yellow magic danced in the air.

Caught off guard by the sudden weather change, Psychopsis faltered.

Eunsae’s eyes widened as she realized something.

“Oh, this might actually work.”

Psychopsis lived in the jungle. That meant it wouldn’t be able to survive in a polar climate.

Of course, it wasn’t the only one suffering from the blizzard. Hunters, regaining their senses one by one, screamed for help as they shivered.

“Guys, finish it off!”

Eunsae’s beasts all rushed in at once.

Psychopsis was torn apart, collapsing onto the freshly fallen snow.

Dungeon cleared.

“Hunter Yoo Eunsae! What the hell just happened?!”

“Let’s get out first! I don’t know either!”

Eunsae kept the fact that Byeol had summoned the snowstorm a secret. There was no benefit in revealing it, and with the dungeon boss’s unexpected power-up already being an anomaly, one more mystery wouldn’t matter.

The hunters hurried toward the exit. But then—

CRASH-

The ground trembled. Eunsae looked down at Byeol in her arms.

“Byeol… Was that you?”

[No!]

Byeol, who had been gleefully experiencing snow for the first time, frantically shook her head.

Then that meant—

Eunsae had felt this kind of tremor before.

At White Sand Lake Dungeon.

Not just once. But twice.

Eunsae realized they needed to report this. Immediately.

Total dungeon conquest time: 19 hours, 36 minutes.

Much faster than Eunsae had initially planned.

⤷ Byeol is insane. So cute ><(so freaking cute)

⤷ Where did this beast even come from? Totally out of nowhere.

⤷ The headline is such clickbait—ㅡㅡ

⤷ But why are hunters with magic abilities so rare?

⤷⤷ Ah, old man, it’s because of skill acquisition issues. It’s naturally rare. More details here (link)

⤷ So is it true that Byeol is a dragon?

…

[Anonymous] What is a dragon! (In Jeon Woochi’s tone)

⤷⤷⤷ Yoo Eunsae is always the first at everything, huh?

…

[Anonymous] Is the world actually ending?
Should I start going to church now?

Dungeon resets, dungeon boss power-ups, dungeon climate shifts…

Feeling as uneasy as when dungeons first appeared.

⤷ No way things are about to get even worse, right?

⤷⤷ You just said the magic word. “No way.”

⤷ I’m here to share some good words with you^^

⤷⤷ Nah, I don’t buy cults.

⤷ Oh, but aren’t dungeon reset phenomena actually slowing down lately?

…

“Ohmy, Yoo Eunsae. You just had to show off your baby to the whole world, huh?”

Sol clicked his tongue. As the group gathered to deal with the aftermath of the reset dungeon, Eunsae wasn’t the least bit embarrassed—she was proud.

“Doesn’t my Byeol look great in the photos?”

“You’re that happy about it?”

“Yeah. It’s annoying getting calls from all over asking where the baby dragon suddenly appeared from, though.”

“The government even asked outright.”

Woori let out a tired sigh. Eunsae blinked.

“What did you say?”

“I didn’t answer. Just firmly denied that it had anything to do with China’s egg. By the way, any progress on that?”

“No… There’s a reason China handed it over so easily. It absorbs abilities, but there’s no reaction.”

“At this rate, if a Chun Tiān Dé Yāo Qíng pops out, it’ll be a disaster.”

“Ugh, just imagining it is terrifying.”

Yuha shuddered. Even though the transfer rights had been settled, conflict with China was inevitable.

Not that they would back down from a fight if it came their way.

“So, Eunsae. You said there was another tremor?”

Mirinae spoke in a serious tone. Eunsae nodded without hesitation.

“Yeah. The way I see it… this is no ordinary situation.”
