Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 451 Aura

Aura watched the scene in the distance and sent a message to Ainz.

"Lord Ainz, I tracked that armor to a giant dragon. It looks like it could be a True Dragon. He might be the one who killed Shalltear."

After receiving this information, Ainz felt a slight sense of relief. Although he wasn't sure if the dragon was the main reason for Sebastian's betrayal, he could move on to the next step of his plan now that he had a clue.

In his frustration, Ainz had already sent the undead to destroy all the nearby lizardmen villages. He didn't need these tribes that didn't submit to him around the Great Tomb.

With the news, Ainz gathered all the Guardians present.

Albedo, Demiurge, and a group of people gathered under the throne.

After Ainz saw all his men arrive, he spoke, "Aura's pursuit has yielded results. She tracked the armor down to a giant dragon. It's a True Dragon, and judging by its aura, it's incredibly powerful."

After hearing this news, Albedo had a guess: "Sebastian has the blood of a dragon. Perhaps this is the main reason why this traitor betrayed you. Perhaps he wants to obtain the complete dragon bloodline."

Cocytus, a militant figure, immediately offered his own suggestion: "We should immediately use all our strength to defeat it. In the name of Ainz Ooal Gown, we must completely eliminate all these enemies."

Demiurge was somewhat puzzled by this information and asked, "Where did Aura find this dragon?"

After hearing this question, Ainz urgently contacted Aura with magic and asked, "Aura, where are you now?"

"Want to come support me? I should be near the Kytinias Mountains now."

Ainz cleared his throat and replied to Demiurge, "She's near the Katinias Mountains." Accustomed to battling wits and courage with the air, Ainz continued, "There may be other entities behind this dragon. We should be cautious."

Demiurge's face was filled with admiration. "Sure enough, Lord Ainz has noticed something fishy going on here, which is why he didn't approve our plan to destroy it."

He looked at the puzzled expressions of the other Guardians and said, "Ainz-sama, please allow me to explain your grand plan to the others."

Ainz looked bewildered, but he pretended everything was as planned and said, "I allow your explanation."

He still trusted this subordinate with extraordinary intelligence, even though he sometimes thought of things in ways that Ainz himself had not thought of. But this greatly improved Ainz's prestige.

After receiving permission, Demiurge explained to his colleagues in a serious manner:
"We've only just arrived in this world, and Aura is a long way from us. Sebastian can't directly contact the beings there. Therefore, there must be some other connection between them. That's why Ainz-sama said there are other beings behind this."

Then Demiurge asked seriously, "Which direction is the dragon moving?"

After Ainz relayed this, Aura stared at the Rotten Coffin Dragon King for a moment before replying:
"From what I can see, the dragon is heading towards the kingdom. A seasoned hunter with such experience wouldn't make a wrong judgment." Ainz's only function was to be a mouthpiece, but that didn't stop him from pretending to have the situation under control.

Demiurge looked at Ainz with a look of deep admiration. "Perfect! This is why Ainz-sama sent Pandora to the capital. I originally thought Ainz-sama was simply using his transformation ability to lure out the conflict. Only the supreme wisdom of Ainz-sama could lay the groundwork before it even occurs."

He then spread his arms and addressed the other Guardians, saying, "Pandora, the only one among us who can use all the Supreme Powers, is the best bait in that position. He can also transform into Ainz-sama at any time to confuse the enemy."

"A dragon like this would inevitably cause destruction if it reached the capital. Then, Ainz-sama, all he needs to do is go as the adventurer Momon and become a hero. Meanwhile, we can proceed with our plan to bring the kingdom to its knees."

Although Ainz himself was completely unprepared for what Demiurge had to say, he nodded and said, "As expected of Demiurge, you've guessed my thoughts."

Demiurge replied modestly, "I have only gained a small glimpse of your wisdom through your guidance."

Ainz commanded through magic, "Aura, follow them and see where their final destination is. If it's indeed the royal capital, reunite with Pandora. We'll come to support you later."

Aura responded to this command with a cheerful voice, "Alright, don't worry, Ainz-sama. I, Aura, will not let them get away from me."

At this moment, the Platinum Dragon King was still negotiating with the Rotten Coffin Dragon King. He had no way to restrict the Rotten Coffin Dragon King's actions with just his platinum armor.

Therefore, the Decaying Coffin Dragon King completely disdained the terms proposed by the Platinum Dragon King: "Destroying a country is not a big deal for you. Even the country you support can invade and occupy those lands."

Of course, since the Platinum Dragon King had made concessions, the Rotten Coffin Dragon King decided to give him some face: "Chaindulux, of course I can agree to your request. I will only destroy one city. I will not cast large-scale magic to plunder souls."

The Platinum Dragon King understood that it was extremely difficult to ask the Rotten Coffin Dragon King to remain restrained. Even he himself could not remain calm in the face of an existence that could potentially destroy him.

"Then please allow me to follow you in this avatar. I will stop you if necessary."

The Rotten Coffin Dragon King's words were filled with anger. He said in a blaming tone, "Chaindulux, I've already made concessions regarding your status as the Dragon Emperor's son. How dare you continue to cross my line!"

"As long as you can do what you say, I will not interfere with your plan. And since that person can threaten your existence, then you may need a helper."

"Then follow me, but I won't care about this incarnation of yours. You must be careful not to damage these precious equipment."

"I'll take care of it myself, so you don't have to worry about it."

The Platinum Armor and the Rotten Coffin Dragon King headed towards the royal capital together.
