“Tsk.”
I couldn’t reach it.
But it doesn’t matter.
I didn’t put all my effort into it, it was just a casual greeting.
I didn’t throw it with the expectation that it would reach it in the first place.
“You.”
“… Yes.”
The shadow was the servant of darkness, not the servant of the demon, but the devil treated him thoroughly, and the shadow did not even express its dissatisfaction.
“Lead those nerds and go to the continent. Then take care of it.”
“… You?”
“I will go to the dragon gorge.”
“…… “
It’s dangerous, you might die if you go.
Is this an agreement with the Lord of Darkness or Death?
Dozens of words swirled in the shadow’s mouth, but in the end, the words he could utter were fixed.
“Okay.”
——————————————————————————
“This is… ?”
A mighty, unknown attack flew into the dragon’s gorge and disappeared.
If it flew at me, would I have been able to stop it… ?
I asked myself, but I couldn’t come up with a positive answer.
If you use yellow words and use divine magic, you’ll have to twist it to send it to another place or avoid it.
But if you collide with force against force…
Pluto looked at my expression and said to me.
“Laios, the Demon God, is an exceptionally powerful god among the gods who have shared the history of the continent. You don’t have to use it for comparison. He is stronger than me.”
“He said he came to the continent already?”
Kiriya asked in bewilderment, and the darkness shook its head and denied it.
“Oh, that’s not true, Kiri. Maybe that’s what I threw in the sea. But it will come soon Whales can’t stop Baal. Anyway, once I’ve reached Baal, I’ll be back soon. He hasn’t been a good commander since before, and since there’s no Demon King now, he’ll just leave the rest of the kids behind and go alone. I have to go to the country and fix it. Uh, you wouldn’t bother chasing after me, would you?”
I didn’t bother to say, “You won’t catch it anyway,” But the darkness ruled out the possibility that it was in danger.
In the dragon’s gorge, which can be called the enemy camp, even if the dragon lord was standing by, he had a confident attitude without any anxiety even in the state surrounded by so many gods and transcendental beings.
Because it was unbearably unpleasant for you to behave so confidently in front of me.
Instead of answering the words of darkness, I raised my divinity.
“Hmm? What are you doing now… “
“You are too cocky. Tie it up.”
Simple bondage magic, but magic that was replaced with divinity instead of mana became a power that could hardly be called magic anymore.
At the same time, I was able to realize the meaning of magic that the dragon lord created to deal with the old lightning god, that is, the old Shien.
Magic is a science that anyone with talent can learn and learn, and it is a great science that can reach transcendence just by learning magic.
However, is it great enough to defeat those mighty gods, the god of lightning who is probably stronger than darkness or Kiriya?
No, it’s not.
The greatest magician among humans, the Magic Tower Master, was judged to be weaker than the wind god and other gods, and more skilled in magic than an ancient dragon, and was judged to be outside of his powers as a wizard.
Then did the Dragon Lord really defeat the lightning god by making magic?
No, it’s not.
In the end, magic is a deteriorated version of something that the Dragon Lord created or accomplished.
As the Magic Tower Master said, the magic of the Dragon Lord is an imitation of authority.
That’s half right, half wrong.
With magic using mana, you cannot imitate the authority of gods and transcendents in the true sense.
But with this magic. If it’s magic using divinity.
As I raised my divinity, the darkness made a laughable expression, then suddenly changed its expression and hurriedly threw itself away.
Assuming a human form, he immediately turned into darkness and tried to escape, but the purple chain I made finally caught the edge of the formless darkness.
The chain that became a single authority couldn’t escape even the darkness that had no physical reality.
As soon as the darkness was seized, Shien drew his sword and ran away, and Pluto also ran with the darkness wrapped around his arm, but the darkness responded a little faster.
The darkness, which molded a part of the darkness into the form of a sword, cut off the chain, and immediately spread the darkness far and wide.
“There will be no darkness in my mansion!”
Pluto immediately declared, but it was after the darkness had already disappeared.
He was the one who crawled all the way here with the confidence to escape in the first place, so he didn’t think he would be able to catch him with hastily made power.
But I was satisfied.
Darkness, instead of backing down after saying hello, ran away without even leaving a word of greeting.
————————————————————————————
“Tsk.”
The darkness, far away from the dragon’s canyon, took human form again and clicked his tongue as he straightened his clothes.
“They say that the emperor is high-level but not a real threat, that was bullsh*t.”
I just gave the power.
In the first place, since the emperor was not famous for chains or chases, it would not be the main power.
Rather, since it was naturally mixed with something similar to dragon words, it must be more like a kind of magic.
And the darkness knew how to use the powers that it lacked, and how to use them arbitrarily.
It’s not the magic that idiots use, it’s the magic of the Dragon Lord.
Of course, it was so clumsy that it was difficult to compare it to Dragon Lord’s.
The chain itself was of low rank, and it wasn’t difficult to cut it down.
However, it was obviously a big problem that the number of users of the damn magic, who took all the powers of the world at will, increased by one more.
“… Are you a disciple of the Dragon Lord?”
The dragon lord he knows isn’t the type to take disciples, but other than that, he couldn’t think of any other possibility.
Of course, Black Dragon is said to have similar powers, but what he can do is the simplest elemental magic.
Of course, simple doesn’t mean that the power is low, and the black dragon Pluto I just faced is an opponent that I can’t easily see even if I’m myself, but in the end, it means that the black dragon can’t handle the Dragon Lord’s magic perfectly.
If the emperor were a disciple of the dragon lord, the dragon lord might join the battle.
Darkness stood there for a while, lost in thought.
There were people who came to such darkness.
“… What are you guys?”
“It’s been a while, Nocturne.”
“Paura, Us, I don’t know about the other two.”
God of Fire and God of Earth.
And likewise, a being that seemed to be a god and a transcendental being surrounded the darkness as if besieging it.
“It is an honor to meet you, darkness. I am a star.”
“Ah, it must have been the source of the metal. If it’s okay, could you introduce me to the friend next to you?”
“… Not a good name to use in front of a substitute, if you ask me. I am Aisen who rules the small forest.”
“The Ents are still there. I heard that the death was massacred in the last war.”
“This is how I am alive.”
The three gods and one transcendent were all determined to participate in a new great war as payment for their debt to the World Tree.
They weren’t defeated in the old great war, but they weren’t the most glorious victors either, so they were the ones who hid until Kiriya descended on the continent.
“So, what happened? Greeting?”
“We are not meant to greet each other warmly.”
“Zephyrus greeted me warmly.”
“Hey, Zephyrus is that kind of guy. Don’t expect that from me.”
Unlike Zephyrus, the god of wind, or Nocturne, the god of darkness, who took on a perfect human form, Paura, the god of fire, only took on a clumsy human form to fit the expression of living fire.
It was not a difference in rank or ability, but a difference in disposition.
The Earth God and the Metal God each took the form of a long-extinct race called a dwarf or dwarf, and Aisen looked like a gigantic giant tree.
When Nocturne looked around, everything was on fire, so much so that he couldn’t remember what the original scenery looked like.
“After… I’m not here to fight I’m just here to declare war. Kiriya didn’t attack me either.”
Though the Emperor pounced.
Something that resembles a black dragon and a lightning god.
Darkness didn’t bother talking behind the scenes.
“Thousands of years have passed since this continent became Kiriya’s, but that doesn’t mean I became Kiriya’s subordinate. I will kill you here and become the master of the continent once again. The continent is too large for Kiriya to rule alone.”
“Kiriya regards the emperor as an ally?”
“Isn’t it just superficial for a kid who has been on the throne for less than three years? Or, well, I don’t know if you want to use it as an agent.”
The speechless darkness did not bother to correct the illusion of Paura, the god of fire.
Instead, he pulled out a sword from his chest.
It wasn’t the shapeless sword he pulled out when cutting the chain, but a pitch-black sword that gradually dyed the surroundings darker.
