[New Skin Set: Royal Knights] At some point, faint roars began to be heard deep in the forest, scaring children into stopping their crying and traders no longer daring to cross the dark woods. The elderly who had experienced the dragon slaying wars of the past recognized that terrifying sound - it was a dragon! The appearance of the dragon disrupted people's peaceful lives, filling the city with cries and whispers... Even the Royal Knights lost the blades capable of slaying the dragon and forgot the techniques to kill the evil dragon due to the passage of time. As the king fell into despair, the dragon slayer, who had only appeared in paintings and sculptures for a hundred years, returned to the royal city once more, wearing a cloak and holding a heavy blade. The fateful confrontation between the evil dragon and the knight will unfold again. [Macalon's New Legendary Skin: Roaring Dragon] At first, it was the trading caravan traveling through the forest that heard the roaring. Unlike any known beast, the sound was filled with strength and anger... and evil. Later, a night hunter hiding in the woods caught a glimpse of a chilling green light. Finally, the oldest elder in the city broke the silence: there is an evil dragon in the forest! From then on, the legend of the evil dragon devouring everything in the forest spread throughout the castle, and people were looking forward to the appearance of the savior. However, it is said that a very small number of legendary creature enthusiasts also came to witness the evil dragon.
