The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

"Then let's start the war."

As he said this, Orpheus chuckled softly.

"Altsch, be careful, or I might break your wings too easily."

Chapter 286 Fighting the God of War

Altshuu left.

Their arrival was earth-shattering, but their departure was utterly silent.

With the ability to both control and unleash his power, the God of War had long ago mastered his strength—enough to rival an entire planet—to an incredibly precise degree.

Orpheus simply watched quietly.

She was right; the God of War indeed had no interest in dealing with a mere fragment.

Putting aside whether the destruction of this fragment would affect Orpheus's main body, since they didn't have much hostility towards each other to begin with, even if there were any impact, the God of War wouldn't take action.

To be honest, the duel between her and the God of War was quite subtle.

There was no animosity between the two of them, and most importantly... even Artesius didn't know what Orpheus wanted to do, and Orpheus didn't know what Artesius wanted to do either.

However, they all acted for their own reasons, regarding the other party as an opponent they had to defeat without knowing the other party's purpose.

Because they harbored no hatred and had no conflict of interest, they could maintain a fairly peaceful relationship in most situations, except that their goal was to defeat each other.

Before the day the final battle truly began, the two got along more like friends.

Artesius is very obsessive; if Orpheus isn't at his peak, he'll even try to help him recover.

As for Orpheus... he was simply too lazy. Rather than fighting so many times, he preferred to settle things in a few decisive battles.

However, although the God of War left decisively this time, both of them knew very well...

Twenty thousand years of peace and tranquility have just been completely shattered.

No...actually...

That guy couldn't really be said to have left.

Orpheus gazed lazily into the distance, then quickly looked away and turned to look beside him.

Rick had already lost consciousness, while Shubi stood guard nearby, her eyes fixed on the dragon girl.

Meanwhile, the extra individual of the Skywing species, seemingly forgotten by Altshu, seemed completely unconcerned about being left behind, idly fiddling with the feathers on its wings.

They didn't seem to have any intention of taking the opportunity to escape.

In fact, Jibril herself felt very strange.

Generally speaking, even the Winged Race, who reveres strength above all else, doesn't obediently follow the victor after being defeated—after all, aside from the fact that the Winged Race has its own pride, even if they really wanted to follow the strong, who could be stronger than Altshu?

Therefore, there is no record of the Skywing race being captured... Even if they don't have a method like 'Collapse Roar' that allows them to commit suicide while also killing enemies, this strongest weapon race still has its own insights into suicide—in fact, every race has some insights into this aspect.

But now, Jibril has no resistance to the other party's order to follow her.

"This is really interesting..."

The girl of the Skywing race flashed with a light like lightning, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Although I'm not entirely sure, I think I roughly know who you are."

"Yeah……"

Despite Jibril's words, Orpheus still seemed uninterested.

Whether or not her identity is known is not really important to her.

She had other things on her mind.

"Machine-type".

Hugh was taken aback when she was suddenly called out, but she remained quite vigilant.

What is your purpose in approaching humans?

As she asked the question, the dragon goddess's eyes emitted a faint silver light.

Hugh had a feeling that if she lied or spoke vaguely, she would be caught instantly.

However, the Mech race is a race that doesn't lie or know how to use language.

"This machine...is intended for...heart...analysis..."

So Hughie told the truth.

Orpheus's eyes flickered.

A few seconds later, she nodded and smiled faintly.

"That's interesting. Send me a copy if you get the results."

If we were to talk about this fragment, it would be Orpheus who is close to the 'king' side... Although she is quite lazy because she is rather weak in this aspect, she still gets interested in other things and will take action for things that interest her.

"This……"

Hugh paused slightly, his eyes gleaming with the light of data.

Generally speaking, the contents of the Machine Gundam's information database cannot be arbitrarily disclosed. Even though Shubi has now been expelled from the Machine Gundam's communication chain for disobeying the command body, the instructions imprinted in her core from the moment she was created still deeply influence Shubi's thinking.

but……

Shubi glanced at the boy lying behind her and took a deep breath.

"Shubi... I understand."

Then, for the first time, without even understanding why, he disobeyed the instruction.

Seeing Hugh's trembling appearance, Orpheus tilted his head.

"Don't be nervous, I will also give you something in return."

Hugh nodded absentmindedly.

For her, nothing in return really matters...

Just then, Orpheus turned his gaze to the distance again, his silver eyes narrowing slightly.

……

……

"Hey, long time no see."

Altshu, who should have returned directly to Abant Heim, is now appearing less than 100 kilometers above the ruined capital of the Forest Elves.

That's right, Altshu didn't need to make a move at all.

The right person for him to take action is already waiting for him not far away.

Dozens of meters away, two girls who looked almost identical, as delicate as dolls, one more mature and the other slightly childish, stood in front of the strongest god.

Artes casually tossed his spear aside and watched the two men without saying a word.

"Why did I have to come along too..."

The one whose personality was closest to the original Orpheus yawned and muttered a complaint.

"Because we can't beat him by ourselves."

Orpheus, who suffers from schizophrenia, responded in a low voice.

To be honest, she didn't really want to come either... Although they almost always solve problems this way, in reality, neither Orpheus nor the 'she' from ancient times really liked direct combat.

But after all, Altshu is someone we must defeat.

Since he has undergone some kind of change, we must figure it out.

Using two clones that can dissipate without consequence is the best approach.

During their exchange, the God of War remained silent.

Then, the figure vanished.

--- The declaration of war has already been made, and there is absolutely no need for further words. Since the other side dares to be distracted by communication at this time, we should be prepared to be caught off guard.

The God of War is the god of war. Although he doesn't like to use tricks and schemes, he is not a knight who will abide by all kinds of principles!

───!

The silent vibrations emanated and traveled thousands of miles away.

As Rick slowly awoke, the entire sky... shattered, centered in the distance!

Chapter 287 Getting Weaker?

Is this where you live?

Rick glanced helplessly at Orpheus, who was looking around in the back.

"Ugh, this is really shabby..."

And then there's the Skywing girl following behind Orpheus, offering her opinions.

If possible, unless he is absolutely certain that there is no threat whatsoever, Rick would never allow outsiders to enter their human hideout.

Unfortunately, while he was still reeling from the collapse of the sky, the girl who had just declared war on the God of War suddenly pulled him to the entrance of the settlement.

He wasn't even given time to prepare.

"May I ask how you discovered this place?"

Rick rubbed his temples in exasperation.

"...How did you discover it?"

Orpheus tilted his head, somewhat puzzled, at his question.

"Because if you want to know... you'll find out."

"...What kind of answer is that?"

The human boy sighed helplessly.
