Anime Crossover: Starting with an Infinite Dragon God as a Mount

No, this vast area should be called a palace rather than a villa.

The building's layout and decorative style do not give people a sense of nobility and luxury.

On the contrary, the overall style is low-key and understated.

The gray-brown wooden structure, and the pavilions and terraces planted with typical local flowers.

If you're considering it for a vacation, it's definitely a great choice.

However, the entire European magic community knows this.

This is not a place where one can relax and unwind; it is Marquis Voban's den of iniquity.

"I see, she's Kranichal's granddaughter..."

In the dimly lit hall, an elderly man sat on a tall, hard wooden chair that had nothing to do with comfort.

Unlike the stereotypical image of an old man who is lethargic and listless.

His hair was meticulously styled, and his suit was so clean and tidy that it was almost stiff.

Emerald's eyes appear kind, but in reality, one can see an undisguised fierce glint in them.

The shadows cast by the buildings clearly delineate the lines between light and dark.

His lower face and body were exposed to the sunlight, while his nose and head above were obscured in darkness and somewhat indistinct.

Only the green light flashing around its eyes was particularly terrifying, reminiscent of a pack of wolves lurking in the jungle at night.

Marquis Voban, the god-slayer closely associated with wolves in the public's mind, glanced slightly to the side, his tone revealing a hint of teasing.

"To become a full-fledged knight at such a young age, coupled with such outstanding medium skills..."

“Kranichal, you have a rather remarkable granddaughter.”

The address "Kranichal" caused Liliana, who was bowing respectfully, to pause slightly, followed by an indescribable chill running down her spine.

The hands supporting him on the ground trembled slightly.

As Marquis Voban spoke, a black figure shrouded in shadow appeared beside him.

It is reminiscent of the traditional Grim Reaper's hooded attire, with the exposed face being a skull without any flesh attached.

Without a doubt, this is a blasphemous force that forces the dead into its slavery.

Furthermore, from Marquis Voban's remarks, it can be learned that this was Liliana's grandfather.

He once served Marquis Voban as a knight, and after his death, he was transformed into this form, unable to find peace.

Marquis Voban possesses a power called "Servants of Death," which allows him to enslave the dead by turning them into his servants.

From a universal value perspective, this power is evil to the extreme, adding to the terrifying aura of his demon king status.

Many of those who defied Marquis Voban were transformed into this form, never to be reincarnated.

Liliana silently bowed her head, not daring to raise it.

She had long heard of the Marquis of Voban's terror.

I did plenty of mental preparation before coming here...

But it was only when she truly faced him that Liliana realized just how terrifying he was.

This is the Demon King, a vicious creature known as the Godslayer.

Although nominally human, the disasters are no less dangerous or chaotic than those of the disobedient gods.

"Well then, let me explain."

Marquis Voban put down the wooden box in his hand and fiddled with the gold ring on his finger.

That was the ring of the Nibelungs, which had lost its power and transformed from a divine being into a mortal one.

"I think this little thing... doesn't quite match the legendary divine artifact."

The Demon King's voice was gentle, and he spoke slowly, making one mistake him for an ordinary old man.

"I don't think you'd have the courage to fool me like this, would you?"

Marquis Voban asked in a gentle tone.

Although when he saw this "divine artifact," his first thought was that he had been fooled.

However, he was confident enough in his authority.

Under this heavy pressure, Liliana felt that even breathing was becoming difficult.

"Yes."

Liliana gritted her teeth and tried her best to make a sound.

"On the way to escort the divine artifact, we unexpectedly encountered a mysterious young man."

"The divine artifact was stolen in an instant, and the protective spells attached to the box were completely useless."

"The ring turned into this after he touched it."

"Click. 2.3"

Marquis Voban put the ring back in the box and closed it.

"Interesting, I didn't even know such a thing existed..."

It sounds a bit unbelievable.

However, Marquis Voban was confident that the young knight before him would not have the courage or reason to lie to him.

The Demon King smiled gently.

In his mind, the one capable of doing such a thing might be an unknown, disobedient god.

Could it be that they were attracted by my recent actions?

"Forget it, I don't have time to deal with it right now..."

He casually tossed the box aside.

"As for your words..."

The wolf king's gaze fell on Liliana.

Whether it's right or wrong.

To lose what should have been given to oneself is a sin.

Feeling the cold gaze fixed upon her, Liliana trembled involuntarily.

Chapter Fourteen: What's there to be afraid of? He's just an ordinary, kind old man.

Marquis Voban understood from Liliana's few words.

The malfunction of the divine artifact cannot be blamed on Liliana.

The guy who stole the divine artifact was clearly not an ordinary opponent who could be stopped.

But so what?

Failing to protect what should have been given first, regardless of the reason or whether a mistake was made, is a sin.

Those who are guilty should be punished.

That's it.

Is he domineering?

It was naturally extremely domineering.

Is it terrible? Of course it is.

But so what.

The so-called demon king is something that doesn't follow any logic.

Trying to understand him or reason with him using ordinary thinking is an utterly absurd joke.

Marquis Voban narrowed his eyes slightly.

The eerie green light appeared even more glaring and unsettling.

"You...have a duty to participate in the summoning ritual, right?"

The wolf king softened his tone and asked softly.

"Yes," Liliana replied respectfully and cautiously.

"In that case, let's get ready." Marquis Voban looked out the window, no longer paying attention to Liliana at this moment.

He valued the upcoming summoning ritual more than these trivial matters.

Moreover, he had no interest in getting furious about such a thing.

"Yes," Liliana replied, and slowly withdrew.

"Oh, right..."

Just as Liliana was about to leave through the door, Marquis Voban's voice rang out again.

As if he had suddenly remembered something, he calmly spoke of trivial matters.

"If I remember correctly, your aptitude as a medium is quite outstanding, even by world standards, isn't it?"

"Thank you for your compliment."

Compared to the former president of the Greenwich Sages Council, Princess Alice might be slightly inferior. However, below that level, her talent is already second to none.

Moreover, a talent like Princess Alice's would be a burden for mortals.

Therefore, by the age of twelve, the princess was already bedridden.

Those qualities that shouldn't be possessed by ordinary people can only be considered unfortunate if one does possess them.

Therefore, Liliana would be amazed by Princess Alice's talents, but she would never envy them.

With her current qualifications, she is capable of becoming both a top-ranking witch and an excellent knight.

Therefore, Liliana was already quite satisfied with her talent.

Marquis Voban nodded slightly in response to Liliana's reply, indicating that he understood.
