Chapter 525 - God of Evil Dragons, the Glory of Dragons

“Wooo wooo wooo—”

The loud and clear draconic roar resounded on the eastern coast of the Land of Dragons, signaling the birth of another god.

This would be the last roar of the Obsidian King on the main continent, because he had already become a true god. Even if he was only at level 0, he would not be allowed to stay on the main continent for too long. He needed to leave and create his own divine kingdom. He could only return to the main continent after forming his incarnation.

In the palace of the Land of Dragons, the Mythril King Heloise sat on her throne. Her expression looked ugly as the happiness, innocence, and kindness that overflowed from her being disappeared, leaving only gloom behind.

“Lady Heloise, what are we going to do now?”

Some of the ancient and older dragons in the palace were also fumbling about. Their thousand-year enemy had succeeded in ascending, which was not good news.

“No need to worry about Drexler. Now that he is a true god, there is no need to be afraid of him personally coming against us unless he is bold enough to defy the covenant of the gods. The first thing that he must do now is to leave the main continent. However, the dragons under him are likely to move, so we have to be more careful.”

“Now that Drexler is at his weakest, the other dragons would have lost their leader. Dealing with them is still easy for me. After that, I will also complete my ascension. Once I become a true god, I will be able to compete with him.”

Seeing that Heloise was tense but mostly calm, the advisers were relieved.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from tinyurl.com/37k7u89t.

Heloise knew that she needed to quickly complete her own ascension. Drexler might be weak now, but as long as he was able to stabilize his godhood and reach level 1, he could gain a constant source of power from his church. At that point, it would be a great disaster for the Land of Dragons.

The only way for her to confront the Obsidian King was for her as the Mythril King to succeed in ascending.

The reason why Drexler was able to ascend faster was due to the support he gained from Chauntea, Gorsh, and Marzalis. This allowed Drexler to gain an upper hand in his battle with Heloise.

“But… Why is Drexler’s aura a bit strange? What exactly is wrong?”

Heloise as a demigod could only detect something amiss, but she would not be able to tell the specifics.

……

The Mythril King might not be able to understand, but the same could not be said for the gods. Chauntea, who was witnessing everything and protecting Drexler, gradually frowned. In the end, her expression became hard to describe.

“Your Highness Drexler, you… what are you doing?!”

Even the relatively mild-mannered Mother Earth Goddess was unable to stop her body from trembling. The gaze that contained expectation for Drexler gradually filled with anger.

This black dragon did not ascend as the ‘Dragon God’. He obviously had the support of many dragons. In terms of faith in dragons, his believers definitely exceeded Louie’s. As long as he was willing, he could definitely compete for the divine authority of dragons.

All non-human gods had one god who possessed the essential divine authority of the race, such as the divine authority of dragons, divine authority of dwarves, and many others. An example of this was Gorsh who was called the God of War of the Beastmen, but his most important divine authority was that over beastmen.

All these non-human races were all under the god who possessed these important racial divine authorities. Under them were gods who possessed sub-divine authorities such as the Goddess of Love of the Elves, Goddess of War of the Elves and so on and so forth.

Because of the existence of the divine system, for races other than humans, there could only exist one god who possessed the main racial divine authority and they would be the main god of the divine system.

The reason why the human divine system could have so many gods was that the human divine system did not have the ‘divine authority of humans’. Humans were considered the most important race on the main continent, resulting in the creation of many powerful human gods.

Drexler had the opportunity to become the main god of the dragon divine system, but he gave up on the possibility of doing so and simply ascended as the ‘God of Evil Dragons’!

This meant that no matter how hard Drexler tried, he could only stay as a low-tier god all his life. At most, he could reach mid-tier divine power, but he would never gain the chance to reach high-tier.

In Chauntea’s opinion, it was unbelievable that a greedy dragon would give up the power that was in his hand.

“Hahahahahaha!!! What am I doing, you ask? I am ascending, Your Highness Chauntea!”

After ascending, Drexler’s body gradually transformed. He seemed to have activated the genes of a primordial dragon and he began to grow rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he became a three hundred meter long black dragon.

“Why… Why didn’t you do what we asked you to do, Drexler!”

At this moment, Chauntea’s face was twisted in fury.

She had plotted for so long and waited for so long to obtain this hard-earned chance, but it was all ruined by what should have been her pawn. She knew that from now on, it would be difficult to plot against Louie, because he had reached mid-tier. This was already the most stable position for the gods, and it would be difficult to make them fall.

Moreover, now that Louie’s divine authority was not torn apart, the road to become a high-tier god was open to Louie. Once Louie became a high-tier god, it wouldn’t be possible to defeat him… unless the world or the epoch changed.

“I am a dragon, the Obsidian King, the leader of the evil dragons! You may think I am greedy, evil, tyrannical, and would sell my soul for power and wealth, but you’re wrong. You are all wrong! More than wealth, more than power, all dragons are most proud of their identity as members of the ultimate race. Our glory is all because we are dragons! Not power or wealth!”

“Hahaha!!! Your Highness Chauntea, did you think I wouldn’t know Your Highness’, His Highness Gorsh’s, and His Highness Marzalis’ goals? Did you think that I would let prospects of power get to my head and blind me from the inevitable future?!”

“No! Dragons will never submit to other races! We will never be servile and never be slaves!”

“Dragon will only submit, only be loyal to only another dragon!”

Drexler’s eyes burned with passion. He opened his mouth that could break mountain peaks and roared.

“You want me to tear apart His Highness Louie’s divine authority, but did you think I wouldn’t know of the consequences?! It will split the dragon community and cause us to lose the status of the apex predator! And I, Drexler, will have to obey your orders and submit to you!”

“Since I must submit to others, why would I submit to a human god or a beastman god and not a dragon god?! Hahahahahaha, Your Highness Chauntea, you do not understand dragons. Now, your expression has turned so ugly. Everything we do is for the glory of all dragons!”

The berserk black dragon spewed out an evil dragon’s breath. The flames were choked with evil and terror.

The good dragons’ doctrine was to help other races and become friends with them to gain the dragon’s high status and glory. On the other hand, the evil dragon’s doctrine was to bring fear to other races to maintain the said reputation.

However, no matter what side of the coin it was, no matter how different the doctrines were, there was always only one purpose - that was to fight for the sake of all dragons and dragonkind.

This was the doctrinal resonance that Heloise and Drexler gained under the thousand years of teaching of the primordial golden dragon.

The reason why Heloise and Drexler were not innate gods was that their draconic natures were stronger than their divine natures. This was why their doctrines benefited their community.

Chauntea used divine power to block the evil dragon's breath. At this moment she was livid. The feeling of humiliation and being used by her pawn left her infuriated. Now that the Evil Dragon God had just ascended, his godhood was unstable, and his true body was in full display, Chauntea had decided to kill him in order to dissipate the anger inside her.

But at that moment—

“Your Highness Drexler, if you are willing, why don’t you come to my divine kingdom?”

A crack opened in the sky above Drexler, turning into a portal made of divine power.

Although the God of Evil Dragons was evil and brutal, he was not stupid. He knew that if he continued to stay here, not only Chauntea but even the other two gods of war would send incarnations to finish him off.

Drexler opened his wings spanned almost a thousand meters and flew towards the portal. Behind that portal was none other than Dragonblight!

“Don’t think you can run!”

Chauntea was already dominated by her anger. A pillar made from divine power blasted out toward Drexler and the portal.
