Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 1 Episode 137

**Vinjure**, more commonly known as the **Dragon of Evil**, and also known as the **Black Dragon**, and the **Dragon of Darkness**, was a Primordial Dragon in Lucid Adventure. He was one of the two Dragons created by Han Gun-JaeThe Absolute God to act as a balance to The Four Gods. As one of the Primordial Dragons, he held one of the last two pages required to complete the Absolute Quest.

He was the "**Master of Dragons**" and the "**Watcher of the World**". As a primordial Dragon, his main mission was to fulfil The Absolute God's will, which was to prevent both Lucid Adventure and the Real World from intertwining. Vinjure was given 'the eyes' by Han Gun-Jae to recognise 'The Ones who See the End' and to guide them when the time comes. The Witch also tasked the Dragon of Evil guide those who will see the game's ending as well.

Due to the machinations of a one of the Four Gods, the Dragon of Evil fought the Dragon of Light for over a millennium and their blood soaked the earth, leaving magic and skills in the world. By the time they discovered that it was part of the God's scheme, both had weakened too much. Dragon of Light left deep scars on Vinjure's body, which had to be covered up by bandages. During the war between humans and Demons, the Dragon of Evil became fond of The Knights Order which led him to creating the Dragon Knights.

After Hardcore Leveling Warrior, Dark and Sora were identified by The Witch as the 'ones who will see the game's ending', the Dragon of Evil took interest in them. Under the pretext of 'punishing' Heart Heater for using the Dragon's Power during the Combat Tournament, the Dragon of Evil lured Dark's Party to the Dragon Mountain and forced them to undergo the Trial of a Dragon to prove their worth as 'the Promised Ones'. After the 3 players passed the test, the Dragon of Evil gave the the title of Cursed Heroes.

After the Yopy used Han Gun-Jae's power to kill the Gods, the power left behind by the disappearance of the gods was also absorbed by the Dragon of Evil and the Dragon of Light.

During Heart Heater's duel with Xiang Yu, the Dragon of Evil took over Heart Heater's body and fought in his place. He ended up eating Xiang Yu and deleting the player from the game. Giga attempted to raid Dragon of Evil, but they were all forced to kneel before him.

As Nightmare raided the Human Realm, Dragon of Evil and Dragon of Light subjugated Nightmare's forces. Alongside the Dragon of Light, Heart Heater and Stone, the Dragon of Evil was transferred to the Demon Realm by Choco Bibi to confront the Demon King - Hardcore Leveling Warrior.

Dragon of Evil engaged the mind controlled Hardcore Leveling Warrior briefly, but was pushed back a bit when Hardcore Leveling Warrior regained his personality. At Stone's request, Dragon of Evil then stepped aside as Stone engaged Hardcore Leveling Warrior. After Stone was defeated, Dragon of Evil used up his remaining lifespan to summon the Ancient Dragons to fight Hardcore Leveling Warrior, but all the summoned Ancient Dragons were killed by Hardcore Leveling Warrior. Seeing as there was no other way to defeat Hardcore Leveling Warrior, Dragon of Evil sacrificed himself to give Dark and Sora a chance to enter Hardcore Leveling Warrior's mental world and stop Hardcore Leveling Warrior's rampage.

## Appearance

In his humanoid form, the Dragon of Evil had messy black hair, red eyes, and shark-like teeth. He is shown to be half naked in all his appearances, wearing only blue ripped jeans, no shoes, and wearing bandages around his head to his right arm.

According to Dark, he looked like a kid in his puberty and an anime character due to the bandages around his arm.

In his dragon form, he is a massive black dragon with multiple eyes across his face.

## Translation Notes

#### Character Name

'악의 용' literally means **Dragon of Evil**. WEBTOON translates this as **Evil Dragon**. Whilst this is not a major translation issue, they do not do the same for the Dragon of Light. They do not call the Dragon of Light, 'Light Dragon'. To ensure there is consistency between the Dragon of Light, the original and proper translation, Dragon of Evil will be used for this wiki.

## Notes & Trivia

* The Dragon of Evil was first mentioned in Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 1 Episode 22. He made his debut in the series in Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 1 Episode 137. His real name, Vinjure, was revealed by the Dragon of Light in Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 2 Episode 111.
* When the Dragon of Evil was first mentioned by Spirit of the Mirror in Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 1 Episode 25, his dragon form appearance was completely different to his current design. It is possible that the author had not settled on a design at that point. This has not been confirmed as of yet.
* Hardcore Leveling Warrior called Dragon of Evil and Dragon of Light "Yonggary" (용가리, Yonggari) (LINE incorrectly translated this as simply "dragons") in Hardcore Leveling Warrior Season 2 Episode 111. This was a reference to Yongarry (sometimes spelt as "Yongary"), a giant dragon-like Kaiju originating from the 1967 South Korean film *Yongary, Monster from the Deep*. The film and its title character were produced to rival the success of Toho's Godzilla films during the mid-60s.
* Hardcore Leveling Warrior called him the 'Black Boss Lizard' (검은 왕초 도마뱀, geom-eun wangcho domabaem) (WEBTOON: Black Lizard) during his fight with Dragon of Evil.
