The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

Presumably, even the efficiency of devouring will be greatly improved as a result.

Even the primordial dragon, which can maintain itself even in the void, has no effective means of counterattack against the endless devouring.

At this moment, even the vast external order, under the already considerable pressure, is almost unable to continue its advance.

Even the order controlled by the Primal Dragon itself is in a similar situation.

Everything that is happening now is proving that the balance of power between the two sides is reversing.

"In that case..."

--Dragon's Breath.

It can be said to be the most signature move or line of dialogue of the dragon species, which is like a tacit understanding between two parties who have been openly acknowledging each other for a long time.

Both dragons attempted to counter each other with their dragon breath, and the result of their simultaneous dodging and attacking was that two beams of light, one white and one purple, continuously swept across the void, indiscriminately passing through all parts of the space.

Unlike the previous acrobatic feats that at most killed Orpheus a few times, this time both sides poured their full strength into the dragon's breath.

Where the white light sweeps across, it transforms into the order of the primordial dragon; where the purple light sweeps across, it is absorbed into the infinity of Orpheus.

The territories of both sides changed constantly under these circumstances.

This process lasted for a while, and then—

"You can't win anymore."

As the white light swept past him, Orpheus suddenly spoke softly.

"is it?"

The primordial dragon tilted its head to the side.

"At your current pace, before you can completely defeat me, my analytical capabilities will be able to overwhelm you."

Orpheus stated the facts in a tone that showed no sign of victory.

The primordial dragon readily nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, it seems that my rash attack on the void was a big mistake."

Orpheus fell silent.

The primordial dragon was spouting nonsense, and anyone could see that. However, the problem was that even though the primordial dragon understood this, it still carried out this foolish act.

She... definitely didn't do this because she was crazy.

"It was indeed of great help to me, whether it was the power of that evil god, or the vision and information when that power and your power were intertwined."

"is that so."

The Primal Dragon closed its eyes and shrugged.

"But even if you say you've won, if I swallow that little garden, maybe I can turn the tide a bit. Besides, just because you can stop me doesn't mean you're stronger than me. In this situation, killing you a few times might not be impossible. Most importantly, I'm not without my trump cards."

Orpheus did not reply; she knew the primordial dragon was telling the truth.

Even at this point, the primordial dragon still has many ways to either destroy itself or defeat Orpheus.

No one knows how many trump cards she has up her sleeve after living for so long, but Orpheus could think of the option of re-integrating with the external order.

"However, I also have similar methods."

Orpheus countered expressionlessly.

That's right, although we can't fast forward to victory, it's not impossible to take each other down with us.

If she couldn't do it, the Primal Dragon wouldn't have needed to be so careful around her in the first place.

"That's right, there's no way I can stop you from doing that now."

The primordial dragon agreed with her.

So at that moment, she chose to compromise.

"In that case, let's decide the winner in a simpler way."

So she made a suggestion to Orpheus.

Chapter 887 Dragon God and Dragon God

"An easier way?"

Orpheus asked in bewilderment.

Even Miss Evil God seemed surprised that the Primordial Dragon would pull this stunt, and she pricked up her ears to look at him.

"The conflict between us is not a complicated issue—you will jeopardize the order of this void, that's all."

The words of the Primal Dragon left the other two speechless.

Now, anyone can judge who has caused more damage to the order with just one glance outside.

"That's right, you've all seen it too."

And the Primordial Dragon naturally hadn't been unaware of their thoughts.

"As long as those who control the order retain emotions, they are capable of doing foolish things like what we are doing now, things that run counter to the original purpose."

Golden eyes were fixed on Orpheus.

"I can't even trust myself, let alone trust you."

"..."

Orpheus remained silent.

She didn't know what the primordial dragon was trying to say.

"In other words, if you can prove that you won't harm the Void, then there's no need for us to continue fighting."

The primordial dragon then chuckled and drew its own conclusion.

"Of course, this is what we've always been doing."

That's right, that's the purpose of the battle between the two sides.

For the primordial dragon, Orpheus has only three possible endings.

One is to be completely eliminated, and the other is to be accommodated by order.

And the third one...

Naturally, the outcome would be the opposite of the two mentioned above.

"So, since we've reached the point where neither of us can do anything about the other, let's just get to the conclusion in the most direct way."

Finally, the Primal Dragon presented his proposal to Orpheus.

"...A direct approach?"

The little dragon god frowned slightly.

"Yes, a direct approach. Although our battle was already a candid display of our respective cosmologies, it still wasn't pure enough, was it?"

"..."

The explanation from the Primal Dragon was unnecessary; Orpheus already understood what the other meant.

The previous battle was Orpheus using infinity to fight against the order of the primordial dragon.

Now, however, the Primal Dragon hopes that both sides will completely abandon these things.

Metaphorically speaking, it's like hand-to-hand combat without weapons.

Or, it would be more accurate to describe it as a physical fight at the level of consciousness.

Orpheus's analysis and the primordial dragon's understanding—when the two people's most basic abilities collide, the one who can turn the other into 'themselves' will naturally be the final winner.

Indeed, quite direct.

Such battles do not involve the void or any other people; they are purely a contest of the capabilities of both sides.

"...Was this your original purpose?"

Orpheus inquired.

This method seems quite good, but in reality, if neither side were currently able to defeat the other, probably no one would even consider it, especially Orpheus.

After all, although they had never tried it before, the two dragons intertwining their consciousness like they did just now... the one with the advantage probably wouldn't let the one with the disadvantage escape unscathed. Once that happens, the damage is permanent, and the already weak Orpheus couldn't accept a fighting style with such a low margin for error.

As for the primordial dragon... theoretically, there's no need to resort to such a high-risk method.

But at this point, it seems that only this method can bring this deadlocked struggle to a swift and decisive end.

Given that the primordial dragon still holds some advantage, this ancestor's suggestion does indeed seem to represent a certain degree of compromise.

However... Orpheus always felt that the primordial dragon had come with this goal in mind from the very beginning.

"My purpose has never changed."

However, the primordial dragon responded with the same words as before.

“There is more than one way to achieve a goal from the very beginning, and the final result can be good or bad... I hope to be able to judge the best path based on my own will, so I don’t care about the method or be attached to the process.”

Orpheus fell silent.

She tried to translate what she had just heard. It was roughly that this guy had only initially considered a few possibilities and solutions, and the choice of which one to choose was a conclusion she reached during her battle with Orpheus.

So this is your choice?

"You can think of it that way."

"...I accept."

After a long silence, Orpheus gave the answer to the Primal Dragon.

Upon hearing her answer, the Primal Dragon smiled.

Miss Evil God's gaze darted back and forth between the two, and in the end, she could only shake her head.

"A dragon seed..."

This race, which originated from the primordial dragon, although it inherited the inertia of the primordial dragon's past mentality, is ultimately still bound by the arrogance and sense of responsibility that also came from the primordial dragon.

In reality, both sides present could have chosen an easier path.
