NOVEL NEXT Chapter 361: Slaying the Gods
"[Such a fat Black Dragon...]"
This was the second sentence spoken by the God of Judgement as he descended from the heavens, heard by Lance, Sophia, Hammond, Erinna, Austin, and the Young Dragon.
The Young Dragon even saw the Deity, radiating intense golden divinity, and widened her eyes in shock. Was this the Deity that Sophia had summoned from the Divine Realm?
That invisible being who had fought the Evil Dragon that night... was it the same kind of Deity?
How strange.
Why had she been unable to see the Deity that Sophia summoned with the Summoning God Technique that night, but could see it now?
Was it because the Deity made a holy appearance before humans?
"Dog... Brother Gou, did you see it?"
"Woof woof woof!"
"What? You want me to call you Brother Gou? With everything that's happening now, you still care about that? I mean... did you see the Deity?"
"Whimper whimper whimper..."
"You barely saw it?"
Er Gouzi, sitting in the bamboo basket, nodded his head and then retracted both his dog heads back into the basket. He preferred not to see. Such a sacred and powerful presence shouldn't appear in this world.
It's over. Lance is probably going to be thrashed by this terrifying being.
Should I jump out and do something about it?
Stealthily bite that terrifying being?
A dog raised for a thousand years, used in a moment of need – not to mention that in all these years, Lance had hardly used it, just letting it guard the house and protect the yard on Black Dragon Island.
I'm going all out!
If Lance gets beaten up later, I must protect my master!!!
If Er Gouzi could see it, she could too. It seemed the Deity Sophia had summoned this time... was quite showy, not minding being seen by creatures of the Human World.
The Young Dragon sneaked another glance at the Deity shrouded in golden divinity. She didn't know why... but that sentence from the Deity earlier... gave her a slightly contemptuous feeling...
She always felt like the Deity said "Such a fat Black Dragon" with a sense of encountering a delicious treat...
Treating the Evil Dragon as delectable food?
She hoped she was overthinking it. If the Deity really had that intention, it would definitely enrage the Evil Dragon.
Given the temperament of the Evil Dragon... in a fit of rage, even a Deity would dare to fight...
It wasn't just the Young Dragon; even Sophia felt there was suspicion of regarding the Black Dragon as food in the second sentence of the "God of Judgement."
She also thought the "God of Judgement" was somewhat unserious.
Look at the Valkyrie, descended from the Divine Realm, appearing in the Human World with such a divine demeanor – that was the image of a Deity she had in mind.
I can't think too much about it. Deities have different personalities, which means they present themselves differently when they descend into the Human World.
Before becoming a Deity, the God of Judgement wasn't that reliable. There were unofficial histories about the "God of Judgement" that circulated in the Human World for a long time.
She had read those unofficial histories about the "God of Judgement." With such histories, it was normal for him to say such things.
Lance spread his wings and slowly ascended to the heavens. This Deity holding the bronze balance as a Divine Artifact... his way of speaking seemed familiar. Let's have a good look and see if this slightly contemptuous speaking Deity... is some sneaky and shameless scoundrel...
Reaching a certain height, a bizarre glow appeared in Lance Jin Hong's vertical pupils. His vision penetrated the thick layer of divine light around the "God of Judgement's" visage and saw the face of the "God of Judgement."
He was dumbfounded.
Indeed, it was that thick-skinned, shameless, crafty, and infamous rascal...
Not...
Isn't that rascal supposed to be the Heroic Spirit God-King in the Heroic Spirit Divine Realm?
And now he's become the "God of Judgement"?
Are the gods of the Divine Realm not adequate?
Why would they let a human who had schemed against them in the Human World become the God of Judgement?
"Fat Dragon, you and I are fated. Would you be willing to be my Pet Beast?"
Heh...
"God of Judgement" Bruce Donnash...
"Do you believe I can make all your descendants my followers?"
Lance grinned, ready to give as good as he got. If Sophia had summoned the War God, he might not have been so bold, but facing the God of Judgement, Bruce Donnash, he dared to trample on his divine authority in front of Sophia, and even in front of Sophia... beat up the Deity.
He might even commit deicide!
"Insolence, defiance against a Deity, blasphemy of a Deity, the Judgement Scales have your name, your sins will be judged by me."
Hum—
Accompanied by a buzzing sound, the God of Judgement Bruce Donnash threw the Judgement Scales into the air. In an instant, the Judgement Scales grew immensely huge, covering the sky like a dark curtain, even hiding the heavens.
The massive Black Dragon appeared directly on the bronze plate at the left end of the scales.
The moment he appeared on the left bronze plate, the right plate tipped upwards.
Lance saw his situation and remained unflustered, wanting to see who was stronger – the "God of Judgement" Bruce Donnash or Bruce Donnash as the Heroic Spirit God-King.
He also wanted to see how the so-called "God of Judgement" planned to judge him and whether he was even qualified to do so.
Upon seeing the God of Judgement commence the judgement of the Black Dragon right away, Sophia got excited. However, as she felt the rush of excitement, her mind occasionally flashed back to the Black Dragon's words.
The Black Dragon had actually declared that he would make the descendants of the God of Judgement his followers!
This was no different from blasphemy against a Deity.
Apart from this, there was one more thing that slightly concerned her: listening to the conversation between the Black Dragon and the God of Judgement...
Why did she feel like... the Black Dragon seemed to know the God of Judgement?
Not the knowledge of a devotee toward a Deity, but like... friends, acquaintances, who had not seen each other for many years, meeting again after such a long time.
An illusion, perhaps?
The Black Dragon knowing the Valkyrie already seemed absurd to her. If the Black Dragon also knew the God of Judgement, was this Black Dragon wandering the Human World just an ordinary Pureblood Black Dragon?
