The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

The key is familiarity with the rules.

She didn't know to what extent the other party had developed the limitless potential, but she had even greater confidence than that.

The war between dragons and gods—as a survivor of that calamity, the opponent's experience was practically that of an infant.

"Let me show you the fighting style of my predecessors, and you can learn from it—in the eternal cycle."

The words fell, and the world collapsed in that instant, then was rebuilt.

Chapter 416 Dreams and Reality

Orpheus opened his eyes.

The enormous body, whose entirety could not be seen, coiled up and floated silently in the void where nothing else existed.

This is a long-awaited gesture of liberation.

Compared to the human form, the original form is undoubtedly more relaxed.

There's also a feeling of power being expressed.

Rather, this feeling seems a bit too intense.

The next moment, the enormous body exploded.

It was as if an endless energy had swallowed everything, leaving nothing behind.

Given time, not only this temporal gap, but even the universe separated by a layer of space would eventually be completely destroyed, right?

But seconds after the explosion, everything suddenly came to a standstill.

Then, the whole world collapsed like shattered glass.

Orpheus opened his eyes again.

--Is that really how it is?

The dragon goddess sighed inwardly, feeling somewhat troubled.

Then, her body exploded again.

The world collapses again and is then rebuilt.

As its name suggests, the Dream Dragon controls dreams and illusions.

You could say they are two different forces, or you could say they are just one force, but it doesn't matter.

Constructing a dream to imprison your opponent is just a matter of a snap of the fingers for them, isn't it?

From the current perspective, it seems that the billions of failures were directly presented as a fantasy world by incorporating Orpheus into it.

Although many times in the past, the situation would explode before it even started, there would inevitably be times when support was secured and testing began.

I don't know how long it would take if we waited for all of them to play.

Moreover, if one's consciousness becomes assimilated with the false illusion halfway through due to being unable to sustain it, then it's probably all over.

This is probably just an appetizer to buy time.

Take advantage of this time to construct an even more powerful dream, until it completely devours this 'infinity'.

Even though time is on Orpheus's side, he is still a veteran powerhouse and remains calm and steady in this situation.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it is a fact that the passage of time has been to Orpheus's advantage.

Therefore, even with the constant explosions, she didn't rush to find a way to break free from this illusion; she simply pondered it slowly.

In the beginning, her idea was actually very simple.

Return to this world, defeat the Great Red, and retreat to your own quiet place to slowly explore the truths that predecessors have yet to uncover.

It sounds very sophisticated, but for the Dragon God Girl, it's really just about finding a little space to think while sleeping.

Even though some unexpected things happened after her first molt, she didn't care too much, treating them as a legacy and backup plan left by Qi.

But after returning to this world, she discovered that something was wrong.

Indeed, the disguise was quite convincing... They must have gone to great lengths to conceal themselves from the authorities.

However, there is still a deviation and inconsistency of less than one in a million.

From a macroscopic perspective, the error is negligible or even imperceptible, but Orpheus possesses the prototype of omniscience and omnipotence—the power to analyze the world.

Under the illumination of that power, the 'unusual' phenomena that defied common sense transformed into a torrent of information that assaulted Orpheus's senses.

Even if it's only one in a million, the amount of intelligence it contains is still unimaginably large.

The data is so strange—it's practically a bug—that it's hard to ignore.

After analyzing the intelligence, Orpheus also noticed something amiss.

---She seems to feel more at ease with this unusual persona than with reality?

With this question in mind, she finally found the answer by further analyzing everything in this world and comparing it with the external order.

That is the fact that this world, including her, who was born from this world, is merely an illusory dream.

Surprise, sigh, anger, sorrow.

—For Orpheus, these were emotions that were neither necessary nor easy to generate.

Since it's illusory, it must first become real.

Ultimately, it's not all about being illusory, but illusory things can't reach the heights that Qi is pursuing, right?

The obsession that Qi originally etched in Orpheus's heart is no longer as deep, but if we trace the roots back to the point that Orpheus could not have reached what he is today, it would have been impossible without Qi.

Therefore, you cannot go back on your promises.

Although not very proactive, Orpheus was indeed making slow but steady progress.

Now that we've encountered difficulties and obstacles, we have to solve them.

With this thought in mind, the Dragon God Girl began her mission.

Then, he chose to exchange opinions with Norns, who was most likely to know part of the truth.

To be honest, Orpheus and Norns had very little interaction at the time. Even though Norns seemed similar to Qi, they were not the same person after all, and it was unclear whether they could be trusted.

But Orpheus chose to believe her, and at the same time, he trusted his own intuition.

Neither Norns nor Orpheus's intuition disappointed him.

Even though she existed as an alter ego of Invoke in a certain sense, Norns didn't really know much about Invoke's memories. In the end, the memories she should have only extended up to the moment Invoke left her behind as one of the means of resurrection. The rest were all conveyed to her by Invoke through Orpheus.

Even so, after communicating with the future time and again by reading fate, and now combined with Orpheus's information, she has roughly figured out some of the general outline of the matter.

Then, these were conveyed to Orpheus.

Orpheus also realized that if he wanted to turn the unnatural and illusory into reality, it would inevitably attract the attention of the order.

She will likely face the same fate as Qi.

Logically speaking, continuing to exploit loopholes and accumulate strength would be the best course of action.

But Orpheus felt that things couldn't continue like this.

Although she didn't feel it at the time, if Norns is right, there should also be limits to her evolution.

After all, the reason she, as a fictional being, can move freely in reality is because of the support of the fictional characters she is constructed from.

And the upper limit of her 'status' naturally cannot exceed that existence.

Even if it reaches that level, it's impossible to defy the established order, isn't it?

Moreover, it's something we'll have to face sooner or later.

—If one were to reach the level of prayer, to reach the ultimate that she herself was pursuing.

So instead of being timid and hesitant, it's better to lay your cards on the table.

In any case, the cards that can suppress order have existed from the very beginning.

Having made up her mind, the Dragon God Girl began to take real action with the goal of materializing.

It would be impossible to do this if it were purely an illusion, but Orpheus's experiences in other worlds were not the same kind of illusion.

Those truths were enough to become Orpheus's means.

To counter the means of constructing an illusory reality.

Has the experiment failed again? The 'infinity' within Orpheus has once again exploded due to imbalance.

But at this time, this world was not forcibly remade.

The boundless energy tore the entire world apart.

Bathed in the firelight, the girl who was the incarnation of the dragon god quietly raised her eyes.

There, the red-haired girl looked back at her.

In fact, Orpheus was at a great disadvantage in this battle.

As long as the other party has that intention, they can immediately destroy the illusion upon which Orpheus stands.

We have prepared a contingency plan for that, but in general, everything would become very troublesome if we were to fall into that situation.

Fortunately, the other party did not adopt this approach.

...This is something I must thank.

Although she hasn't reached the level of a mother yet, the other party definitely deserves a lot of credit for Orpheus's birth.

Even now, the other side still hasn't come up with the idea of ​​eliminating Orpheus.

Even so, the fight must continue.

For the sake of Qi's wish, no, it's not just that, is it?

Orpheus, who had always been pursuing knowledge, probably also wanted to see the scenery there.

Moreover, if we want to find true silence, then we must make this world tangible.

She doesn't accept fake or illusory products.

Therefore, even if you don't like fighting, you have to fight.
