Anime Crossover: I Was Chosen by a Goddess and Became the Demon King

Upon hearing this, Asclepius naturally shook his head.

"No, I came for His Holiness the Pope."

Actually, she was outside the door when Bai Zhe turned the cardinal into a dragon. She even heard Bai Zhe address Raquel IV and immediately guessed Raquel IV's true identity based on her research into world history over the past two hundred years.

It is the celestial body that the Dragon Clan sealed away as one of the five great celestial artifacts of the Wise Dragon King!

Then Asclepius told Bai Zhe the reason why she had come for the bewildered girl on the papal throne.

“After the death of the previous pope, His Holiness Raquel, who was still an infant, was put on the papacy by those people, and took advantage of the pope’s youth to seize power and satisfy his personal desires.”

"I watched this child grow up with my own eyes, so please be a little gentler with her."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe glanced at the blue-haired girl with heterochromatic eyes on the papal throne, and then said, "I did not participate in the matter of purging the Holy Grail bloodline, and apart from unsealing the Wise Dragon King, I naturally will not do anything too much to her."

"However, she can no longer serve as pope, and the Espada Sanctuary must also be abolished."

"Thank you for your understanding."

Asclepius was naturally unconcerned about the destruction of the Papacy, but he did feel some regret about his research.

Seeing this, Bai Zhe bluntly ordered the silver-haired witch in front of him, "Since that's the case, you, as an acquaintance, should go and comfort her and tell her what's going to happen next."

"Yes."

Faced with the Demon King's orders, Asclepius naturally dared not refuse. He then bypassed Bai Zhe and the others, came to Lacour, and told the girl about her identity, the destruction of the theocracy, and what would happen next.

Soon after, Veronica's magic ship arrived, and the blonde princess brought with her four more star artifacts.

Following her was Nabi, a mature and voluptuous pink-haired dragon girl. Upon her appearance, she immediately and affectionately took Bai Zhe's arm, causing Ai Ke, who was standing to the side, to puff out her cheeks and show a dissatisfied expression.

As soon as the five star tools appeared, they resonated with each other. The star sword, star armor, star crown, and star engine began to rotate around Lakol, amidst the girl's bewildered expression.

The immense magic summoned dark thunderclouds that enveloped the entire city-state, a harbinger of impending doom.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a roar of anger, lightning descended from the thunderclouds and engulfed Lakul.

The Wise Dragon King, who had been sealed away by the Dragon Clan for a thousand years, has reappeared in the world.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Mother, who should have been in the Albion Forest, appeared beside Bai Zhe through ley lines after sensing the power of the Wise Dragon King.

With her emerald green hair and maternal gentleness, the Dragon Mother made Mordred and Echo feel as if they were seeing their mother, and they immediately surrounded her.

Although the Dragon Queen was somewhat worried about the reappearance of the Wise Dragon King, Bai Zhe's strength gave her the confidence to remain calm.

"Your Majesty, shouldn't you step in and end this feud that spans a thousand years?"

The Dragon Mother's maternal eyes could see the malice towards the dragon race emanating from the Wise Dragon King.

However, besides this malice towards the dragon race, the Wise Dragon King before her now harbored something different from what he had a thousand years ago, something hidden deep within him, struggling against the will of the Wise Dragon King...

That was the will of Lacoul.

Although the girl is only nine years old, she possesses immense power as a celestial being, and can even stop ordinary holy dragons with her bare hands!

Because she didn't want the Wise Dragon King to endanger the world, she, as a celestial being, rebelled against the Wise Dragon King's consciousness.

Just like now, the Wise Dragon King should have launched an attack and burned down this city-state the moment the seal was lifted.

However, due to the girl's resistance, she had to act like a mad dragon. The magic circle kept shrinking but could not launch an attack. All she could do was let out a helpless roar in the sky!

At the same time, Bai Zhe naturally nodded in agreement to the Dragon Mother's request.

"Fafner, shoot it down!"

At the Demon King's command, a massive, jet-black evil dragon spewed crimson-orange light from its mouth, engulfing the Wise Dragon King before piercing the clouds.

It directly dispelled the thunderclouds that had enveloped the entire city-state!

But the next second, as a huge mushroom cloud appeared in the sky, a tremendous tremor spread from the sky to the ground, causing the earth to shake.

Only Bai Zhe was unaffected; the rest of the people naturally felt the earth shake violently. Linda almost fell over, but fortunately, Bai Zhe pulled her into his arms in time, which made the girl feel safe.

As for the believers in the city, they had already experienced the dragon's fire on March 3.9th, and now the earth was shaking and the sky was trembling, leaving them completely helpless!

Even the most devout believers abandoned their faith in the saintess, which could not demonstrate salvation, and instead began to pray that the dark, evil dragon that had shot down the Wise Dragon King and dispersed the thunderclouds would protect them.

At such a critical moment of death, a person's faith is most easily shifted and most devout.

Since one's original faith cannot save oneself, one will naturally not seek salvation elsewhere!

As these prayers arose, Bai Zhe discovered an unexpected joy within his powers.

At the same time, the Wise Dragon King also fell amidst the smoke in the sky, because the Demon King's attack caused Raquel's consciousness to take over and gradually gain the upper hand.

As the dragon crashed to the ground, a massive spaceship flew from afar over the theocracy.

The Ark arrived at this moment.

Chapter Seventy-Six: The Girl Who Inherited the Power of the Dragon! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)

The so-called Ark, or Norton's Ark in its entirety, was a spaceship used to transport all races except humans to outer space to avoid the Wise Dragon King's cleansing of the earth. It was also a protective device modified from the transportation that carried the first dragons to this planet.

However, the program was controlled by the Wise Dragon King, who was the AI ​​of the Ark. A thousand years ago, the Wise Dragon King went berserk for unknown reasons and was eventually split into five parts by the dragons of that time and sealed in various parts of the continent.

Therefore, the magnificent ark, comparable to a small town, fell silent into the depths of the earth, leading to the gradual decline of the dragon race's strength.

Because on the Ark, there is a power that can make even dragons that cannot evolve into holy dragons on their own become holy dragons.

Now, with the resurrection of the Wise Dragon King, the Ark has shed its heavy rocky shell and reappeared in the world.

Its size, resembling a colossal mountain, inspires awe just by looking at it, not to mention the citizens of the theocracy who have been successively struck by the appearance of the evil dragon, the attack of the wicked dragon, and the appearance of the wise dragon king before falling to their deaths.

Some of them were on the verge of a mental breakdown the moment the shadow of the Ark fell upon them. Some were frantically running towards the city gates, while others were praying to the dark dragon standing in the Sanctuary of Espada as if it were a god, begging it to bring salvation.

At the same time, due to the attack of the evil dragon, the consciousness of Rakoul in the body of the Wise Dragon King began to gain the upper hand, but with the arrival of Bai Zhe, Eiko, Nabi and Mordred.

The Wise Dragon King's frenzied consciousness resurfaced.

It was as if a madman, using his last ounce of strength, was questioning the Dragon Mother and the three Dragon Kings.

"Ah!!!! Evalon, Neharenia! It's you again!!"

"You only stopped me once in a thousand years, and now your descendants are trying to stop me again?! What's wrong with creating a world where the dragon race is completely dominant?!"

Facing the crazed Wise Dragon King, the Dragon Mother, who had witnessed the great war a thousand years ago, spoke calmly:

"From the moment the Dragon Clan lost the planet's source, without humanity, the Dragon Clan will truly be doomed."

This is the Dragon Mother, now a beautiful woman with emerald green hair, her eyes filled with a faint sadness, unable to bear seeing yet another familiar person depart.

At this moment, Bai Zhe also stepped forward.

"You have had enough time to mourn. It is time for this thousand-year-old madness to end."

As Bai Zhe finished speaking, the pitch-black evil dragon behind him instantly transformed into a matching dragon fire storm, completely enveloping the Wise Dragon King to Asclepius's astonishment.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling scream rang out from within the dragon flames!

Worried that Raquel might be affected by the Dragon King's body, the silver-haired witch immediately came to Bai Zhe's side and asked him with concern, "Will Raquel be alright?"

Upon hearing this, the Demon King responded with a nonchalant reply.

"Dragon Flame can only burn Impolk and can be ignited."

Apart from the celestial body, the other four celestial artifacts were already imbued with the protection of steel when he obtained them.

Now that all five Star Powers are gathered, Bai Zhe's reason for unsealing the Wise Dragon King is simply to get rid of this security threat.

He didn't want a runaway AI to control the Ark.

After answering Asclepius, Bai Zhe told her, "What you should be most concerned about now is how to save this city."

The monstrous roar of the dragon came from the sky again. Without the evil dragon and the wise dragon king to deter it, the evil dragon transformed from the bishop began to attack the city again.

Because of the previous impact, the city almost came to a standstill. Although the knights who were originally responsible for maintaining order actively participated in the operation to defeat the evil dragon, the huge explosion that came from the sky just now not only caused the mission to fail, but also resulted in heavy casualties!

Looking at the city reduced to ruins by human greed, Asclepius felt a pang of pity and bowed to Bai Zhe.

"In that case, please forgive my rudeness, Your Majesty, and please take care of His Highness Raquel."

"Go."

Upon hearing this, the Demon King naturally nodded in agreement.

After the silver-haired witch left, Bai Zhe took advantage of the time while burning the consciousness of the Wise Dragon King to chat with the Dragon Mother.

How are you feeling?

"Although it's not the same as a thousand years ago, thanks to the grace bestowed upon me by Your Majesty, my condition is naturally better than before."

"After we open the Ark, let's see if there's anything inside that can help you heal."

For thousands of years, without the welcoming of star spirits, the Dragon Mother created the dragon race entirely with her own life, and the foundation was severely damaged.

Even though the Dragon Queen has the protection of the evil dragon, it only prolongs her life through his curse, rather than completely curing her.

Because the Demon King's strengths lie not in healing, but in destruction and plunder, which are conceptual powers symbolizing dragons and heroes.

This is what Bai Zhe admires about this woman. She is willing to risk her life for the future of the Dragon Clan. If it were him, he would never do such a thing before he was completely desperate!

Hearing Bai Zhe's words, the Dragon Mother was naturally extremely grateful.

"Thank you for your trouble."

As the Dragon Mother finished speaking, Bai Zhe's gaze turned to the dark dragon flames. Impolk's consciousness had been completely burned away, and all that remained was for Rakul, who had become Ark Key 970, to open the Ark's gate.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Bai Zhe slowly stepped into the dragon flames and carried out the little girl with sky-blue hair and snow-white skin.

At this moment, Raquel was wrapped in a white coat, revealing a pair of slender, lotus-root-like arms, and her eyes were closed, resembling a sleeping beauty.

However, this Sleeping Beauty is a bit too young, and before you make a move, you'll definitely have to think about whether you want to eat peanuts or not.

Meanwhile, Eiko and the others, who were Dragon King and Dragon Emperor, discovered that compared to when he was sitting on his throne, Raquel was now emanating an aura that made them feel a sense of threat.

That was the power that the girl inherited from the Wise Dragon King.

Beneath the pitch-black dragon flames, as Impolk's consciousness dissipated, the four star artifacts, imbued with the Steel Protection by Bai Zhe, did not separate but instead merged into the small girl's body, making her the humanoid Ark Key, namely the Wise Dragon King II.

However, in terms of power, it is vastly different from the first Wise Dragon King!

Furthermore, because the four star artifacts were completely integrated into Lacour's body, the Steel Blessing also entered Lacour's body, making her Bai Zhe's exclusive weapon.

"Time to wake up."

As Bai Zhe called out, Raquel, whom he held in his arms, slowly opened her eyes.

Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Ark, Activated! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)

Because of the steel's protection, Raquel, who in a sense became the holy sword of the White Knight, naturally shared the same mind as the White Knight.

Without needing much verbal explanation, the little girl immediately understood everything.

But because of the current situation, a feeling of shyness arose in her heart, and her small hands tightly gripped the neckline in front of her.

Those heterochromatic eyes, slightly misty, gazed at the Demon King who held her in his arms, and whispered between her cherry lips, "Thank you."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe did not say anything more, but directly gave instructions to Lacoul.

"Open the gates of the Ark. You, who have inherited the power of the Wise Dragon King, should have a way, right?"

"Ah."

Immediately afterwards, Raquel, the second Wise Dragon King, slowly closed his eyes, communicated with the interior of the Ark, and designated Bai Zhe as the highest authority within the Ark.

The next second, as Raquel once again gazed at her beautiful heterochromatic eyes, the ark in the sky cast a guiding light, bringing Bai Zhe, along with Mordred and the others present, into the ark.

Because the Dragon Queen was projected here by the Demon King, she was not guided into the Ark.

The interior of the Ark is less a crystallization of steel technology as imagined by humankind, and more like an island containing the genes of all the organisms on this planet, or perhaps a hanging garden.

After all, dragons are powerful creatures, and naturally they don't crave external destructive forces like humans do.

Therefore, this ark is more like a research vessel or an ecological ship, carrying only some conventional weapons found on spaceships in science fiction movies, such as plasma cannons!

There were no large-scale weapons like the star-destroying cannon that Bai Zhe longed for, which he found somewhat regrettable.

Of course, what Bai Zhe valued most on the Ark was not the gene bank or the weapons, but the dimensional jump system on it.

Once activated, it allows one to freely teleport to any location within a light-year, but the consumption is quite high, requiring a Millennium Dragon Crystal for such a teleportation.
