The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

As she sped through the falling lightning, Erica's words carried a hint of sarcasm.

"This is utterly absurd, that's my real name."

The response to the god-slaying girl was that same lazy, even somewhat perfunctory, voice.

"I'd like to see how long you can maintain your arrogant composure!"

As they spoke, the sword energy unleashed by the Lion King's Heart was shattered by a bolt of lightning. In that instant, Erica appeared beside Orpheus and slashed down with her sword.

But in the next moment, the girl's expression suddenly changed, and she jumped away with all her might.

Countless purple laser beams struck the girl's original spot in the blink of an eye.

"Reveal yourself, Longinus!"

But the girl did not give up. The Lion King's Heart unfolded in an instant, transforming into a long spear radiating a powerful aura.

Originally, this would have required a large number of incantations, but now that it has gained powerful incantations and vitality, such magic can be performed instantly with the sacrifice of a small amount of power.

The blood-red spear, projecting the power to slay gods, pierced down towards Orpheus.

But the girl's steps were once again blocked by thunder and lasers.

"hateful……"

Erica looked up at the sky and saw several discs hovering above the other side.

Those strange magical artifacts kept releasing defensive attacks.

"If we could use our powers..."

Knowing full well that the other party had been toying with her, Erica gritted her teeth helplessly and could only grit her teeth and continue to deal with the other party.

If she can hold out until the crowd has been evacuated, then she has won.

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from behind the girl.

"A wedge driven from the sky into the earth... the king who defeated Humbaba and conquered the land... the original steel hero... humanity... the all-knowing one... ugh!"

"Gilgamesh?!"

Before she could be surprised for any reason, after hearing the other party's message, a golden longsword instantly appeared in Erica's hand.

"Wisdom, become my sword!"

"Oh?"

Orpheus, whose hands were still in his pockets, showed a hint of interest in his eyes.

Clang!

Erica narrowed her eyes slightly.

Two spears emerged from the golden ripples, crossed over each other, and blocked the golden sword.

The next second, countless identical golden longswords engulfed the spot where Orpheus was standing.

"...That's really interesting."

Ophis, who had appeared several meters away at some point, remained in the same position, his gaze shifting between Erica and Lily on the other side.

"You have rather beautiful eyes, witch."

Orpheus nodded to Liliana, who was kneeling on the ground clutching her head.

One's true nature is not something that can be easily seen through... Rather, it's a good thing for the girl to be rejected after only seeing the surface. If she were to delve deeper... the other person would probably either die or suffer a mental breakdown.

"And what about that sword forged from wisdom and knowledge? It may be powerful, but if you don't have the insight to see through your opponent, then it's nothing special."

"hateful……"

Even without Orpheus pointing it out, Erica could clearly sense that the sword in her hand was not fully forged. Although it could already cause damage, it was only equivalent to an ordinary divine artifact.

Human history can be traced back to almost the very beginning, to the first heroic epic, to the oldest hero king... the Primal Steel...

Regardless of why she is a woman, a rarity even among Steel Heroes, that identity alone is enough to explain her strength. But isn't that all there is to it?!

"If that's all there is to it..."

Hundreds of golden ripples spread out behind Orpheus, and terrifying pressure emanated from them.

But in the next moment, the dragon goddess turned her gaze to the other side.

"So that's how it is..."

With a sudden, faint smile, Orpheus tossed the Gorgon Stone from his pocket to Erica's feet, then put away the Gate of Babylon.

"I was too impatient; there was still plenty of time."

Orpheus shook his head slightly, offering no explanation. He glanced at Erica, who looked completely bewildered, before his body transformed into particles and vanished from the spot.

Chapter 203 The Attacking Goddess

"Eh...?"

Seeing the dragon girl disappear, Erica blinked in confusion.

We were prepared for a fight to the death, but now the enemy has suddenly left...?

Even she felt embarrassed, and Erica's tense mood relaxed.

The strength that had been supporting her body was instantly drained, and the golden sword disappeared. Erica knelt down helplessly, wiping the cold sweat from her palms with her robe without any regard for elegance.

He was so blinded by his god-slayer instincts during the battle that he didn't realize how pathetic he was...

Facing Orpheus, Erica, who originally thought that the power she had gained was already incredibly strong, felt as if she had returned to the time when she first faced a god.

Absolute suppression, unattainable.

"Lily!"

Recalling the battle just now, Erica, who was still shaken, remembered the girl who had warned her earlier. She managed to stop her trembling body and rushed towards the direction of the voice she remembered.

Liliana was pressing her hands to her hair, gritting her teeth in pain.

"Lily, are you alright?!"

“Erica…that person…that person just now, she has eyes that can see through the world and near-omnipotent power…that’s all I can see, I absolutely cannot be her enemy…”

After barely managing to finish speaking, the silver knight fainted!

"Lily!"

Erica reacted quickly and scooped up the girl's petite body.

"Is anyone there... Damn it..."

Although Liliana didn't treat her very well, Erica personally enjoyed teasing her and had some feelings for her. Not to mention, this serious girl had helped her a lot during the battle just now.

Erica breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that Lily's breathing was steady and that there were no immediate problems with her body.

"She needs to be taken for treatment..."

--- Boom! !!

"Roar!!!"

Just then, the ground began to shake violently, and the monster roared.

The screams coming from afar can be heard even here.

Erica's face paled, and she glanced over.

Throughout the Copper Black Cross base, several enormous black snakes emerged from the ground, wreaking havoc on buildings and devouring the people inside the shelter.

"snake……"

Damn it, I've become a god-slayer and even found someone I could seemingly entrust my emotions to, so why am I facing so many misfortunes?

Upon seeing the snake, Erica suddenly remembered something, put the girl down, and leaped away.

Clang!

The black scythe and the golden projection of Longinus intertwined as Erica scooped up the Gorgon Stone from the ground.

"Oh, you're quick on the uptake, a newly minted god-slayer."

It was the voice of a young girl, cool, indifferent, and aloof.

As the sound rang out, the pressure on Erica's weapon suddenly disappeared.

"Then, may I have my snake returned to me?"

Upon hearing the direction from which the sound came, Erica's face paled, and she turned around.

The young silver-haired girl was now standing in her original spot.

The scythe, imbued with a palpable aura of death, was now pressed against Liliana's neck.

"While I am not afraid of a battle, I also dislike unnecessary fighting. Moreover, now is not the time for either of us to let things escalate. How about it? If you obediently return my snake now, I will not only spare this girl's life, but also make my children stop. It should be a proposal that won't do you any harm."

With an indifferent expression and tone, the silver-haired goddess made this declaration.

────────────────────────────────

"The Trinity? What a chaotic myth."

If this were told to the serpent goddess who was consumed by the flames of revenge, how would she react?

Suppressing his rising interest and curiosity, Orpheus stood atop the highest point of the bronze-black cross building, watching the chaotic scene with a faint smile.

"But... steel blades kill snakes..."

Although it didn't cause any displeasure, Orpheus's feelings were still somewhat complicated as the one who was killed.

Come to think of it, this world seems to have a mechanism for regularly eliminating pests.

If there are too many god-slayers, these wanton beings, they will eventually destroy this world. Although it is unknown whether this is the reason, there is indeed a mechanism to check and balance them.

It is known as the strongest steel and the last king.

Given the general state of this world, it's almost inevitable that one will become an enemy of snakes...

Setting aside these irrelevant thoughts, Orpheus glanced again at the chaotic magic society, then looked at the other side of the sky and smiled somewhat helplessly.

That person is undoubtedly kind. Even after so much time, he still remembers his true nature and cherishes all the people who are the king's subjects. Moreover, he now has the power to predict the future, so it is only natural that he would appear here.
