Chapter 194 – The Dragon Queen’s Bad Taste
Evil Scale Fortress David once had the honor to enter once in the Hall of Ten Thousand Wonders, looking at the ‘large flying fortress’ cloaked in the skin of the Nesser Floating City from the Sixth Prison towards the Shadow Plane gradually far away from the shadow of the shadow of the shadow plane, Tiamat, the Dragon God’s five dragon heads seem to be quite a bit of a pity to say:
“It seems that your education of Davyutos is still more deeply rooted, he would rather have a ‘stone shell’ that can be seen casually in the Sixth Prison than be my next chosen one, which is an opportunity that countless multicolored dragons have been begging for.”
Among the five-headed dragon shadows reflected behind that Wanhua Throne, the red dragon head in the center suddenly inclined its head, seemingly looking at His back with disdain:
“Being your chosen one? What’s the difference between that and lighting a torch to become a thief?”
The red dragon head behind the dragon similarly looked back and said:
“Subjective consciousness affects the objective world, our choices determine the future, isn’t that what you once said? You know what a difference it makes, he is a variable, but you created him, and he has effectively rewritten your destiny, knowing that under the existing pattern, you would have, only had one path to take, Pavla, to become my slave god.”
“You are the deity I believe in, but he is also my child, I just happened to be his mother in this world, he is an individual, a different soul from me, he did not come because of me, he came because of his own self-will and desire to be free, I love him, but I will never sway his dragonborn in the name of love, even if, it comes from your command, my god. ”
Even though Tiamat knew that this passage could have been seen by Pavla from the ‘other world’, the seemingly bold and uninhibited look still rippled in this moment.
He knew that this was in some way a disguised indictment and defense of what Pavla had done to herself.
After all, unlike Pavla, who had allowed the child to thrive under her nose for fear of being touched by her, she had begun a century-long ‘scheme’ against Pavla when she first linked her faith to her, making the other party her chosen one step by step and becoming her help in reviving the dragon race. and a pawn.
He wanted to say sorry to this child who had been manipulated by himself for most of his life.
Deities, however, could never be weak, for there was no turning back for Him.
Tiamat snuffed out this apologetic sigh from his heart, crushed it, and said with some anger:
“Since the Holy One’s holocaust ignited that wisp of star fire, a new round of the war of the divine systems has already stepped into the countdown, Asmodeus is not thinking of spreading the order of hell in the multiverse all the time, the God of Death, Yeli, has stripped off his godly frame and hidden himself in the river Styx since a thousand years ago, and seemingly forever recording the beginning and end of life, but no one knows what He is actually scheming for, and under the world of the Great Controversy, where is there any real freedom? In a world of great strife, where is there any real freedom! You really think that if you put all the choices in front of him, he will be able to walk on the path he wants? Or, will it only be worse than my arrangement?”
Pavla was unforgiving:
“All I know is that what makes a variable a variable is his own randomness and chaos, and once we begin to watch or even interfere with it ourselves, his fate will only collapse into threads and eventually converge into points. It’s not about being selfish, it’s about keeping hope. I’ve already made that mistake once, and I’ve ended up tying him to us more and more. Do not forget that you too are a part of this mess, and to try to challenge the world with a single variable when even you cannot see beyond the confines of your own vision is arrogance, and arrogance is not your priesthood or your power.”
Although Tiamat had known that Pavla would refute him, he still did not expect that the child that he had raised almost as his ‘own daughter’ would similarly refute him on the issue of his own child without mercy, and if he were in any other church, such an action would already be considered blasphemy!
The kind of anger like a volcano eruption is hard to restrain in the chest, but did not expect to be blasphemous blasphemy used to Pavla added a knife:
“Anger is not all.”
Tiamat’s five dragon heads nearly went off on a tangent as he turned viciously on Pavla:
“And what about greed!”
“Indeed.” Pavla.
Tiamat’s five dragon heads took a deep breath at the same time and looked towards the sea of astrological signs that were brightening and darkening outside of the god’s country, and finally said with a stoic face:
“Pavla, my favorite child, you must know that he was originally your only way back, just as you are to me. If one day it is confirmed that Bahamut is on the Killing Planet, that is when the Second Dragon Fall War begins, at that time, all the responsibilities and missions will be placed on your shoulders.”
“You have no confidence?” It seemed to be the first time that Pavla looked like the five-colored dragon queen.
Tiamat smiled in relief, “I have had many faces and names, Tasikis, the Dark Lady, the Queen of Chaos, and the Dragon of Ten Thousand Colors. Bahamut as well, Paladin, Fizben, Marduk, King of the Good Dragons, we came to face each other countless times in various realms and in various ways, but both He and I know that win or lose, He and I can never truly and completely defeat each other. Therefore, I have only one choice, to take Him away from this world together, with the help of your hands, at that time, good and evil will be one, and the eight Dragon Gods will inevitably be thrown into strife over this newborn Nine-Faced Supreme.”
Pavela, however, interrupted her god, “Your Majesty, you are being arrogant again.”
“Not bad, this is just the most preferable option from the perspective of our five-colored dragons, maybe Bahamut has been hibernating for so long, and is thinking of giving me a surprise, I just don’t know, how much time is left for us to leave each other after this divine war is fought.”
“That’s right.” Pavla responded with a bland expression.
“Since you are so insistent, and Davyutos has run out of sight, let it be so, and leave my dear child alone to fight.”
Saying that, this Dragon Empress simultaneously commanded the other bannermen and believers, including the five-colored bannerman Efilomon, with a pillar of faith:
“You may begin.”
“Your will, my god.”
With that, the thousands of pillars of faith gradually cut off, leaving Pavla alone:
“Haven’t you already given this task to Davyutos?”
“It’s such an important matter, and you insisted that I not be allowed to get more involved with him, not even letting me look at it, what if he takes one look at things playing out and just runs off in that floating city?”
After interacting with her own Dragon God for so long, Pavela finally laughed out loud for the first time:
“You too have finally learned to joke, Your Majesty.”
After all, what they all knew was that it was because David was worried that it would overturn, that he had ‘buried’ his family in the Sixth Prison in advance, and only traveled to the dangerous Toriel with his soul projection, ‘running away from the monk and not running away from the temple’, but if the plan to destroy the Kingkiller Planet failed, the heavy consequences that would result would be a huge burden on their entire family. The heavy consequences that would result would be unacceptable to their entire five-colored dragon system.
Tiamat’s action was only to finally listen to Pavla’s advice, not to be as risky as in the past, and not to put all her eggs in David’s basket.
Instead, it was a saturation strategy.
He and David, who is in the front line of Torrell, can act as smoke bombs for each other, but they can both become live bombs at any time.
If she had done so back then, perhaps she wouldn’t have been able to use her mortal followers to torch her plans when she was about to enter the throne of Enthrall even after the costly destruction of Gilga at Enthrall.
But in the blink of an eye, the Dragon Queen had placed the safety of herself and even the Kingdom of God in the claws of a single dragon, Pavla:
“I’m going to sleep and build up my strength, and I’ll leave the battle for the Kingdom of God in your hands.”
He could not trust other dragons and believers.
With that, the five-colored dragon queen slumped back to her throne, and in a flash, with Pavla’s sigh of exhaustion, the five-colored dragon head of Tiamat’s breathing became long and peaceful.
The ‘own daughter’ that had been nurtured at all costs for nearly a hundred years had finally become a god.
And Pavla, in turn, had brought Him the ‘inscrutable’ dragon mercenary army of Davyutos.
He who had fought with Bahamut for an unknown number of thousands of years.
It was also finally possible, to take a short break. The Shadow Plane, a dimension of endless darkness and shadows, where light became distorted and faint, and from afar, one could only see distorted and blurred reflections from the Primary Material Plane, forming a shadowy, distorted mirror world in which shadow creatures wandered.
Suddenly, a shrill whine that seemed like a swarm of demons and a giant object sweeping through the air came, causing the shadow creatures to crouch and look in unison in fear.
From their perspective, they could only see a huge dark silhouette moving through the endless shadows, as if it were a dark island floating in the void.
It was a giant flying fortress of hell cloaked in the ‘skin’ of Nether Floating City.
According to the snippets about history collected by Dragon Island combined with the information that David had subsequently integrated at the Evil Scale Fortress, the destruction of the Toriel Nethereal Arcane Empire took place in the Vale Calendar -339.
In order to fight against the danger of annihilation of the Ferrin Magic Aoi at that time, its ruler Carlsas attempted to become a god directly by using the [Ascension Technique], resulting in the disorganization of the magic network, which ultimately led to the Goddess of Magic having to commit suicide in order to quell the magic network.
Under the disaster of the magic net, the floating city of Toriel fell like rain, and only the three highest ones were saved by Mistra, the second generation goddess of magic who just succeeded to the throne, but there were two of them, which were flushed into the shadow realm through the shadow magic in advance to avoid the crisis when the incident happened, and their whereabouts are unknown to this day.
This gave Davy the opportunity to exploit the loophole, and at the same time this was the ‘infiltration’ plan that Davy offered to the Pentacolor Dragon Queen:
That was to disguise as a Nesser immigrant and drive a floating city to ‘return’ to Toriel’s Feren continent in a proper manner.
As for why there was only one of the two left?
After wandering in the dangerous Shadow Realm for thousands of years, isn’t it normal for one to overturn and crash?
Why are the ‘residents’ of the city so weak? The capital of the country has been destroyed for thousands of years, civilization technology regression is not normal!
It’s just that if it was a genuine Ghost City, the city itself would be protected by a huge shadow magic and boundary to prevent dangerous creatures in the realm from entering.
But right now this hell flying fortress, completely like an empty shell without any protection, relying on the old devil Dharonas, who was in the hell engine or the ‘city master’s mansion’ in the appearance of an arcane mage, utilizing his experience in the year in the Batou hell and even the blood war battlefield to test the control of the flying fortress, ”blind” like based on Tiburon’s experience. Feeling blind’ like according to the map of Feren provided by Tiamat fruit forward.
When he ‘felt’ that he had almost arrived at the location, the old devil Dharonas, who had already turned into a shadowy-faced arcane mage, took out the ‘script’ that he had received from the Evil Scale Fortress before he set off, and asked the arcane guards, who were still in a somewhat numb trance, to go and ring the city bell of the floating city. Bell.
In a moment, he was going to stand on the balcony of the city hall and announce to all the people of the ‘City of Ghosts’:
He, Dharonas, was the personal disciple of Nethereal’s last consul, Karthas, and was the very same savior who had led them to escape from Ferelen that year:
[Shado the Lost]!
In order to encourage the citizens to return to their homeland of Feren with themselves and rebuild the Second Netherrealm Empire.
“Do we need to make it so troublesome? Oi.” In the old devil Dharonas’s subconscious mind, it shouldn’t be a matter of reading out some orders, and anyway, the kernel of these citizens were just a bunch of devils, even if they had been ‘nested’ back into humans.
However, once he thought of David Eutos, that red dragon, promising to support his own ‘Hell Engine’ series research and development, he had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it.
Just dragging ‘set up’ using [Iolem longevity] stretched more than two thousand years old old body to the terrace, looking at the municipal square of the great floating city ‘people’, there is a moment, there is a kind of trance like the next day feeling.
Just as the old devil was knocking his head with a headache, the dragon father, Attilicia, with his daughter, Tania, and the barbarian, Loxinde, had already met up with the red dragon, Lizlett, and the white dragon, Mephile, through magical summoning.
Until they met up, they were confused on the spot.
Dragon father Attilicia and dragon sister Tania this pair of silver dragon father and daughter is okay, the dragon queen to provide them with a pair of human believers father and daughter body, the barbarian Loxinde is a ‘orc slave’, an arcane tutor, daughter, plus Nethersole popular orc prisoner of war tempering slaves, a very classic and common configuration.
Only when a frost giant came out with a white young dragon in chains, the dragons immediately looked at each other.
“Lizlette?” Tania asked with some uncertainty.
“Well I am also your slave, and Mephile is a trophy I captured in battle, the slave of slaves.” The red dragon looked rather uncomfortable.
“Oh.” Papa Dragon drifted off, but the species was a pretty good match for both of their intellects .
“What about Davyutos dragons?” Attilicia asked.
“He’s not too keen on seeing us at the moment, I reckon.” Tania forced a laugh.
“Why?” Attilicia, who hadn’t read the Dragon Queen ‘script’, was a bit confused.
“Anon ！！！！！” Accompanied by a [furious] dragon roar, the dragons turned back to see a teenage red dragon landing on the statue of Shado in the town square under the numb and astonished gazes of the citizens, holding his bladder with an air of not wanting to talk to anyone.
“Isn’t that still a red dragon, just like Murfleur?”
“Not quite the same oh.” Tania, however, smiled and shook her head.
Then, to the stunned attention of the crowd, she waved a small hand at her brother, Davy, and softly shouted:
“Davy utos! Don’t be afraid, it’s mommy yo, come mommy’s here oh.”
“.” Being watched by the crowd of dragons with strange eyes, Davy wanted to carry a bucket and walk away from the dragons.
Damn Tiamat!
Yes, the scenarios and ‘scripts’ were mentioned by Davy, but it was Tiamat himself who vetted them.
And in Tiamat’s characterization revisions.
David the Red Dragon became a ‘coming-of-age gift’ given to his daughter Tania by the Arcane Tutor, Atilicia:
A red dragon that was hatched and raised by Tania, from a dragon egg herself.
KAM!
Damn the bad taste.
