Naega Jugin Dragon-gwa Gyeolhonhaetda

In the world of magic, the 9th Circle stands as the absolute pinnacle of arcane mastery—a realm of power so immense that those who achieve it are revered as demigods. For one ambitious mage, reaching this ultimate threshold requires a single, devastating sacrifice: the heart of Valdrova, the fearsome Crimson Dragon. Driven by relentless ambition, he sets out to claim his prize, only to face a heartbreaking revelation. The dragon he must slay is none other than his own fiancée. Betrayal and sorrow intertwine as he confronts her, never imagining that the person he loved would become the final obstacle to his ascension. Yet, when the moment of execution arrives, Valdrova does not fight back. Instead of unleashing her draconic wrath, she willingly offers her heart without a shred of resistance. Her quiet surrender shatters his resolve, replacing his triumph with an agonizing emptiness. He is left questioning the hollow victory, wondering why claiming everything he ever wanted leaves behind such a profoundly bitter taste. In the wake of her sacrifice, he is forced to confront a truth far more terrifying than his own ambitions—an ancient, unfathomable despair that eclipses every ounce of hatred he had ever carried within him.
