Magic, Evil Gods, and the Fourth Calamity

A few breaths later, a crisp sound was heard.

Clang!

That was the sound of the Eternal Spear falling to the ground.

Ai looked down at the large hole in her chest that was healing, and felt a sense of lightness throughout her body. She couldn't help but stretch.

The instant the Eternal Spear left her chest, Ai's consciousness suddenly soared, merging into a vast, empty existence.

That was Ai's dragon body, a dead dragon body yearning for resurrection.

With a thought, 500 points of chaotic divine power flowed towards the dragon's body through an unnamed connection.

An existence that has crawled back from eternal death is awakening in an extremely terrifying manner, greedily wanting to devour everything around it.

That was Ai's dragon body, the very first [Gluttonous Dragon].

But at the very moment Ai Yi's dragon body was resurrected, a massive flow of information also came from the dragon body.

That was the information inherent in the dead dragon's body, as well as the information that had been instinctively devoured over thousands of years, which gave Ai a deeper understanding of this world.

This world is called the Errol World, and it is inhabited by several true gods born from faith.

A thousand years ago, the righteous god, the Throne of Light, joined forces with other righteous gods to besiege the evil god, the Gluttonous Dragon.

Finally, the world of Errol was on the verge of collapse as the [Gluttonous Dragon] and [Throne of Light] fell together, and all mythical beings were ostracized from existence by the world's will, thus ending the era.

Even though the gods have left the mortal realm, their gaze remains fixed on the earth. And almost every so often, a true god will set his sights on the remains of the Gluttonous Dragon.

If any signs of resurrection are detected, even if it causes irreversible damage to the world of Errol, the gods will deliver a divine strike to the remains of the [Gluttonous Dragon].

It's important to know that the place where the Gluttonous Dragon fell was a vast grassland a thousand years ago.

You can't revive now, or you'll be ganged up on and killed again!

Ai was startled, realizing that her resurrection seemed to have been somewhat hasty!

Everyone's watching his resurrection!

According to his predecessor's memories, the resurrected dragon is now likely in a state of "near death".

Even as the strongest evil god in the past, his strength in the "near death" state was probably only "weak divine power".

That was the weakest of all the gods. If any other god wanted to, they could kill him even if they were separated by a world!

So we must stop now, we absolutely must stop!

To be honest, Ai was a little scared. He didn't want to squander the hope he had finally seen!

Sensing the increasingly intense aura emanating from the dragon's body, Ai knew that the gods from beyond the world would surely be drawn to the commotion of the dragon's resurrection and turn their attention to it.

Looking at the knight's lance on the ground, Ai closed her eyes, steeled her heart, picked it up, and plunged it into her still-healing chest, nailing herself back to the dark throne.

The seal of order was activated again, accompanied by excruciating pain, forcibly interrupting the resurgence of the [Gluttonous Dragon] and returning it to deathly silence.

But it was too late.

Ai felt gazes descending from an unseen height, landing on the remains of her dragon body.

A gaze pierced through the dragon's skeleton, landing on its abdominal cavity, the place where the Gluttonous Dragon's shattered divine kingdom was hidden—the very place where Ai was now.

Feeling the gaze drawing ever closer, Ai was filled with anxiety.

If my existence were discovered by those righteous gods, I would surely be ganged up on and beaten by them.

For no other reason than that he is the [Gluttonous Dragon].

Something must be done; I must hide my identity!

Ai's gaze finally fell on the longsword at his feet, which he had drained of all its energy, and he saw the girl who was still unable to move not far away.

An extremely crazy and adventurous idea formed in his mind, and he had no choice but to try it.

He decomposed the remaining Chaos God Power into Chaos Values ​​and poured them into his own Twisted Authority, setting the target of the distortion to himself.

When that lofty gaze finally pierced through the dragon's skeleton, discovering and delving into the hidden divine realm of the [Gluttonous Dragon].

Standing in the divine realm was a handsome man with golden hair and golden eyes, completely naked.

Holding the Eternal Spear in his left hand and the Eternal Sword in his right, he stood tall and proud, meeting the gaze that descended from an unnamed height, and raised his right hand to give the sky the middle finger.

The person with the gaze looked somewhat bewildered. Had that organization in the mortal realm called the Illuminati really succeeded?

Is this guy the successor to the Throne of Light? A new demigod?

But why did he give me the middle finger?

What does it mean to give the middle finger?

Why am I inexplicably feeling annoyed?

Ai Yi himself was also confused; he didn't know why he was pointing the middle finger at the sky.

He reacted almost instinctively when that gaze fell upon him.

It seems to stem from lingering emotions within the authority of "Light," suggesting that the [Holy Throne of Light] harbors a grudge against the owner of this gaze.

What kind of deep-seated hatred must there be?

Even after a thousand years of death, resentment still lingers in the hands of those in power.

Ai felt the gazes cast from an unseen height, falling on her one after another, and then gradually withdrawing.

The world of Errol is still in a period of recovery, and the gaze of the gods cannot descend upon the mortal realm for long.

Moreover, the birth of the successor to the God of Light was something they tacitly approved and recognized!

Otherwise, it wouldn't be Eileen and her companions who have come to the remains of the Gluttonous Dragon today, but rather the gods' mortal retinue.

Unfortunately, the gods were unaware that Eileen and her companions' actions had been thwarted by someone else due to a certain unforeseen circumstance.

The usurper, Ai, knew that he had most likely passed this test.

He looked at his character panel, then at the girl kneeling on the ground, freed from her restraints. Ai walked up to her, lifted her chin with his hand, and made her see his face clearly.

He spoke with a gentle smile, "Child, from this day forward, I am the god you worship. You should be well aware of this!"
