The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

Unfortunately, most godkillers are inherently single-minded egocentrics.

"Well……"

Appearing behind Tony, Orpheus looked at the wound on the back of his hand, which was flashing with purple flames and healing rapidly.

"Excellent swordsmanship."

Well, even in my own experience, there aren't many people with such swordsmanship... Merlin is one of them?

Okay, actually there shouldn't be.

Orpheus had never seen anyone who was particularly outstanding in swordsmanship. Even Lancelot, who was most likely to reach that level, did not show it because he had lost his mind. The other possible purple-haired beauty had never picked up a sword in front of Orpheus.

In other words, Tony was indeed the most skilled swordsman Orpheus had ever seen.

The moment this comment was made, the silvery-white sword light flashed once more.

Tony hadn't actually reached the point of being completely indiscriminate just now; he was at the point where he could stop if Orpheus didn't react... This time, however, he truly used his full strength!

───!

As the sword flashed, the houses within a radius of tens of meters were instantly cut into two sections, but neatly without any slippage.

"As expected..."

Looking at Orpheus, who stood steadily on the street lamp that was actually broken in two, with his hands in his pockets, Tony, who had a simple two-handed sword on his shoulder, revealed a sunny and happy smile, like a child seeing a toy, but also slightly mixed with a ferocious one.

"You bastard, you really are a worthy opponent!"

The sword light shot into the sky once more!

Chapter 208 The Roman Turmoil

"Has the King of Swords arrived in Rome?"

Erica was slightly taken aback by what her uncle Paul said.

It's been less than a day since the duel was scheduled to begin... Although no specific time has been set, the Sword King is acting far too swiftly!

"In fact, the Sword King never officially announced the duel. Instead, he shouted it out and immediately set off for Rome from Sardinia, which had made a wasted trip... The notification was issued hastily by the King's Deacon after realizing that there was no hope of stopping it."

"He really does have the style of that Sword King..."

Erica twitched her lips and helplessly rubbed her forehead.

"But it's good to end it sooner rather than later. Gorgon's seal is about to give way..."

"Ah, after all, our Copper Black Cross doesn't have any particularly outstanding talents in this area."

Paul was somewhat helpless about this.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that there are simply too few people in this world with the ability to seal divine artifacts... Of course, it's not impossible if one really wants to do it; in the era before god-slayers, humans were even able to seal away disobedient gods on their own.

Of course, it's hard to say how many lives would be lost in a single sealing operation.

Even if it is not a god but merely a divine artifact, without a priestess with top-notch aptitude, an item of the Gorgon Stone's caliber would require at least three outstanding and young witches sacrificing their future potential to completely seal it.

Sealing the power of a god with the power of an ordinary magician is not just a matter of difference in strength; it is impossible to do without making sacrifices.

Neither Paul nor Erika would have made such a choice unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Then let's head to the duel location immediately."

Erica took the weapon she had used to kill the god and made a decision immediately.

Who knows when that unreasonable Sword King might show up? If the battlefield turns into a bronze-black cross, all the reconstruction efforts of the past few days will have been for nothing.

Just then, the phone rang.

Magicians in this world will stop at nothing to survive under the threat of God, so naturally no old-fashioned person would care about the difference between technology and mystery.

Paul spoke a few words on the other end of the phone, then frowned and put down his phone.

"The Sword King is fighting someone in the city."

Before Erica could ask a question in surprise, Paul continued.

"According to the identification of the members of the society, the other party is the disobedient god with long black hair from a few days ago."

Erica sighed heavily.

So why are there more and more troubles for her after she becomes queen...?

────────────────────────────────

A white sword light shot into the sky.

The streetlights finally succumbed to the attack and melted away under the sword light, turning into dust.

As the target of the swordsman, Orpheus lightly jumped backward, but just as he was about to land on the ground, he seemed to fall into the void, and his body suddenly disappeared.

Tony's sunny smile remained undiminished, but his sword stance instantly shifted, sweeping horizontally towards the top of the house on the right.

It's not a feeling, but pure intuition!

Orpheus had barely appeared when he saw the white sword light already upon him.

Then, it pierced directly through the girl's petite body.

Unscathed.

The Sword King's smile, however, became even brighter.

This opponent... did not disappoint him!

Seeing Tony like this, Andrei knew that there was no point in saying anything more. Moreover, the fact that Tony could evade so many of his attacks in such a bizarre way meant that Tony was definitely not an ordinary person.

Things have come to this point, so testing this formidable enemy is probably a good thing... Andrei kept convincing himself with this reasoning.

Unlike Tony, Orpheus had little interest in the battle.

It should be said that Orpheus was never really interested in any kind of battle.

Since they'd run into each other by chance... let's see what's so special about this god-slayer. With that thought in mind, Orpheus dealt with Tony's attack with minimal effort.

His swordsmanship was superb, even comparable to that of a god, but Orpheus, with his primordial knowledge, was not unaware of swordsmen whose skills could rival his... such as a certain gatekeeper.

The intuition she displayed was also quite strong... but this seems to be an ability that most god-slayers possess, except that the girl named Erica was quite lacking in this aspect.

But that's not what Orpheus wanted to see.

The dragon goddess girl was more interested in the bizarre and varied powers that the god-slayer possessed.

It seems that simply hiding won't force out the power of that god-slayer...

Orpheus sighed inwardly with some hesitation.

If in the previous world, the Caster and Archer classes respectively highlighted Orpheus's rational and emotional aspects... then now, her true form is entirely her 'nature'.

They are greedy and have a crazy pursuit of things and knowledge that interest them, but they are also very lazy. In a sense, this is quite in line with the characteristics of the willful race that is the dragon.

To use a metaphor, they are the type who want to make a lot of money while also making money effortlessly.

Most of the time, Orpheus is too lazy to do anything more complicated than walking... Incidentally, spatial travel is indeed about as difficult for Orpheus as walking; it's entirely instinctive... Humans need to learn to walk.

But now, if Orpheus wants to see something that interests him, he has no choice but to take action.

You can't be too much stronger; you have to use just the right amount of strength to slowly squeeze out all of the opponent's tricks... This delicate operation is undoubtedly quite troublesome.

After considering it for a few seconds, Orpheus... decisively gave up on the matter.

There are plenty of opportunities to achieve your goals without having to lift a finger, so there's no need to rush. While there aren't many god-slayers, there aren't a few either, so one more won't make a difference.

In that case, let's test the other projects first...

Golden ripples quietly appeared in Orpheus's palm, and a lightning bolt-shaped dagger fell into the girl's hand.

The next moment, a flash of sword light appeared, and the girl's figure disappeared.

"Oh?"

Without hesitation, Tony spun around and slashed heavily behind him.

Then it didn't work out.

Although the sword light successfully grazed past Ophis, who appeared in front of the Sword King, it didn't feel like it hit him at all.

The moment the attack left Orpheus's body, the dragon goddess girl thrust out her dagger.

But Tony's strength should not be underestimated. He reacted instantly and leaped backward.

The next moment, the purple dagger was pierced into Tony's vest.

Standing behind the Sword King, Orpheus's eyes gleamed with a silver light.

No matter how excellent a god-slayer's intuition is, it can never compare to Orpheus, who has activated the omniscient and omnipotent star.

The Dragon God Girl already knew everything from the start of the battle until now, without even having the chance to analyze the powers that hadn't yet been revealed.

Exactly.

Chapter 209 Everything is Ready

Orpheus pouted slightly as he strolled through the chaotic streets of Rome, which had been thrown into disarray by the emergency evacuation.

She just used the Rule Breaker to stab Tony directly into the heart.

Then nothing happened.

This is actually quite reasonable. If it were to have any real impact on the opponent, a god-slayer with excellent combat intuition would not be so easily caught off guard.

The Wanfu will surely break the rules and can break any spell, including curses, blessings, and contracts... Theoretically, this also includes beings like god-slayers who achieve their status through some kind of ritual or form, but this is only in theory.

The difference between a C-rank Noble Phantasm and the technique behind the Godslayer is far too great.

In terms of level, power, or mystery, it is completely incomparable.

Of course, there are other possibilities as well.

The existence of a god-slayer is permanent; the spell is only responsible for its transformation, not its maintenance.

...If that's the case, then the person behind it has almost no control over the god-slayer. Orpheus Township is curious about what kind of mentality the other party had when creating this destructive race.

Supporting humanity's fight against the gods?
