Akatsuki no Yona - Ch. 267 - From a distant past, towards my future

Silly dragon gods. "we will kill him."

Hak: Challenge accepted.

 

[AnnePackrat]

Oh shut up, you fuckers. Yona fuck them up.

 

[Umbrum]

On one hand it would be fun to see them try, on the other I don't want this to stretch any further.

 

[ifarisu]

Wth is this covenant, they chose to support Red Dragon as bystander, not even Red Dragon asked them to. But now they asked her to pay? Stalker much?

 

[Bahamut_Blitz]

The last threat made by the three dragon gods sounds more like a desperate plea than a threat. Remember that the Yellow dragon said that without the Covenant, the dragon gods loose their reason and power.

 

[Iratana]

The yellow dragon just stated that he can't intervene with anything on Earth, so the other 3 dragon gods should be unable to as well, especially since they severed their connections to Jaeha, Shinha, and Kija. As such, they shouldn't be able to affect Hak since he's on Earth, and as such, those are mere empty threats.

The only exceptions would be if Hak truly is of special origin, with his own spiritual connection to the Heavens that the Dragon Gods could attack. Or, since Hak is holding the Crest, it's currently linked to the Heavens, and thus can be a target for the Dragon Gods.

If it's not either of those two things, I don't see how they can affect Hak.

 

[Mitsu13]

"We want you to be happy."
"We will kill the people you love."
"We will always be with you."

So the dragon gods are just yanderes.

Now they're just being petty

Same. I want this to end.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKS LIL WORMS

 

[Wildtale]

So my previous assumption was correct. The Yellow Dragon Kami was nothing more than an observer, able to affect nothing beyond the vessel within it resided.

This does make me wonder how the dragon deities were able to create the dragon warriors in the first place, but that's beside the point.

What I don't quite understand is how the dragon deities went mad/lost their powers. Was part of their covenant with their respective dragon warriors to not interfere or forcibly bring "Hiryuu" back to the heavens, a condition they broke the moment Yona entered the chalice? Or, while the Yellow Dragon resided in its chosen warrior, able to watch the mortal world go by, the rest of the dragon deities grew as desperate as a kid with ADHD in an empty room, slowly making "amendments" to their covenant that were, in fact, breeches of the contract? I'd rather like some clarification.

But it does look like we're at a stalemate at this point. Yona and company can't leave without the approval of the remaining dragon deities. Base on my understanding of this chapter, the dragon deities have maybe the tiniest sliver of their original powers and, outside of the kingdom losing divine protection, have no ability to impact the mortal world, but they still insist Yona accept their unreasonable, half-mad terms.

Honestly, I know it would break a lot of elements of the story thus far, but I keep wanting Yona to reclaim the former powers of the Crimson Dragon and become a supernatural being if for no other reason than to wipe the floor with the beings that keep standing in her way. XD

Oh well.

Pfff those foolish lizards cant take on or begin to fathom the power of the darkness dragon which should be black dragon the color of mixing all colors XD.
Thanks for the translation!

 

[Ju2c0c0]

they probably can't do anything in the real world and even if they can manifest i'm not worried about Hak

 

[kassidy_]

i lowkey want the crimson dragon to come out and tell them to stfu but ik that prob won’t happen since he became human

 

[Helel]

Yandere dragon gods.

 

[userpadrao]

Is the Crimson Dragon powerless or something? Because until now, Yona has just been dragged around and hasn’t done anything with the Crimson Dragon's power.
Thanks for translating!

But the Yellow Dragon has come out, so it's time for him to appear too.
