To become a king and a magician

But at that moment, countless chains suddenly flew out from behind Natsukawa Tiger and Arcueid, instantly piercing through countless Rahms, and then a crimson dragon shadow swept through the air.

“AAAAArrrrrr————————!!”

With a resounding dragon roar, a storm of thunder spewed from its mouth, visibly burning a large blank space in the Lahem Group!

"Looks like we made it in time."

With a gentle expression, Jingu landed beside Xia Chuanhu.

"Are you alright, Master?"

"Shouldn't this be someone else's line, Jingu?"

Riding a red dragon, Sajou Rei, clad in red armor and wielding a massive nodachi, whose appearance resembled that of a female demon, expressed slight dissatisfaction before turning to her master: "It really took a lot of effort to catch up with you, Master. Please fly slower next time."

Seeing the two people who suddenly appeared, Xia Chuanhu couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Lingyi, Jingu, what brings you here?"

"Because I think you might need the power of the Chains of Heaven."

"We can't just let you do whatever you want, Master, can we?"

The two gave different answers, and then rushed into the swarm of Rahm, using chains and light wings to repel the ever-growing Rahm.

(Master, leave these Rahm to me and Jingu to deal with. You and His Highness the True Ancestor should go directly to deal with the beasts—[Remember, whatever you do, do not touch this ocean, Your Highness.])

In her mind, through the connection with Sajou Rei, her message reached Natsukawa Tora. After nodding to the two of them, Natsukawa Tora grabbed Arcueid's hand: "Let's go, Arcueid, let's stop Tiamat."

"Ok!"

56. The War Between Elves and True Ancestors

To hold off Tiamat, there are two things that must be done.

First, halt the expansion of the black ocean beneath her feet, the tide of chaos.

At the current rate of expansion of this ocean, it will only take half a day to reach Uruk, at which point Uruk will be immediately overwhelmed. Gilgamesh originally used the Fang of Nabistine to hold it off, but there is no such barrier to the south of Uruk now.

After all, compared to the original situation, Tiamat's appearance in the world came more than half a month earlier, and there wasn't enough time to fully establish the Fang of Napishtim.

Besides protecting Uruk, halting the expansion of the Sea of ​​Life would also delay Tiamat's advance.

"I saw it."

Natsukawa Tora and Arcueid rode the wind to the sky above the ocean. On the sea below them, a figure immediately came into their view.

That was a woman.

She possessed an extremely alluring figure, draped in a thin garment made of dragon scales that barely covered her vital parts, and her skin was as white as pearls, exuding purity and maternal instinct.

Her hair was as long as the sea, reaching her ankles. It looked very thick, but there was not a trace of messiness.

On the top of this beautiful woman's head were a pair of large horns that resembled those of a dragon or a beast, and her eyes shone and were deep, as if reflecting a sea of ​​stars.

"That is... Tiamat?"

Arcueid looked at the goddess in the center of the sea with some doubt. On the way here, when she saw those Rahms, she thought Tiamat was a fierce and evil goddess.

But in reality, it's not like that at all; in fact, it's quite the opposite.

Arcueid, who had never thought about her appearance before, felt a slight sense of defeat at this moment.

"This is not Tiamat in its entirety, but merely her mind."

Natsukawa Tora explained.

"Brain body?"

"Well, if I had to put it in perspective, it would be about the size of a single hair on Tiamat's head. The real Tiamat is far larger than her."

"If it's not the main body, does that mean now is the easiest time to deal with it?"

Natsukawa Tiger nodded: "That's right. Look at her hands and feet, they're all bound and she can't move freely. Now is the last time we can act without any hindrance, so we must take this opportunity to complete the most important task—Arquette, together with me, use the power of imagination to materialize a mountain to block this ocean."

"Mountain?!"

Arcueid was taken aback by the excessive demand that Natsukawa Torato made: "Torato, are you serious? Even for us, materializing a city at full power is already the limit, let alone a mountain."

Moreover, to unleash her full power, Arcueid would have to use the power she uses to suppress her vampiric urges. What would happen after that would be no laughing matter; it could easily turn into Arcueid and Tiamat attacking Natsukawa Torata together.

"It doesn't need to materialize into a complete mountain. Or, it could be called a mountain, but it just needs to be something that blocks the entrance to the Persian Gulf from the mainland. A barrier, a mountain, a building... anything is fine!"

"Hmm... that's fine then!"

"Then I'll go to the left and you go to the right. Use all the strength you have right now to stop the expansion of this sea."

As he said this, Natsukawa Tora closed his eyes, immersing himself completely in the manifestation of his imagination for the first time. If there were two people, each person would only need to block half of it, but even so, this would be the most massive manifestation of his imagination he had ever performed.

"Click..."

On a distant plain, without the slightest warning, a massive crack suddenly split open in the ground, and within that crack—

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom ——————!!"

A layer of ice wall, exuding a chilling aura, broke through the ground! It stretched like an iceberg all the way to the distant mountain range!

On the other side, as Xia Chuanhu said, on the other side of the iceberg that was not blocked, like a mirror image of the iceberg, another almost identical ice wall rose from the ground. The two icebergs merged together and formed an iceberg barrier that was even longer than the monster battle line, completely isolating the world on both sides of the iceberg!

"Haa... Haa... Whew~~~~"

After catching his breath, Natsukawa Torato looked at Arcueid and asked, "Are you alright, Arcueid?"

"Hmm... I'm a little tired, but I'll recover quickly."

Even for the two elves, who possess the highest level of illusory materialization, materializing this iceberg required them to use up a significant amount of their power in one go. Arcueid, in particular, had only been able to use 30% of her power to begin with, and now she had used up all of that 30% in one go.

If it weren't for the fact that both of them are currently facing human evil and have support from the planet, this attack alone would have rendered them temporarily powerless.

However, this means that the expansion of the Sea of ​​Life will not be a concern for the time being. At least until the iceberg is breached, the Sea of ​​Life will not be able to invade Uruk, and its size will be limited to the side of the iceberg facing the Persian Gulf.

This also means that Tiamat could not cross the iceberg while it existed. Unlike a human-sized brain, Tiamat's body was too large, and her legs could not support her body to stand and walk. She could only move through the Sea of ​​Life.

The existence of the iceberg temporarily limits the range of Tiamat's movement.

(Our actions are constrained, so the next step is to reduce the pressure on Uruk as much as possible, and the optimal solution for doing so is...)

“Aaaaaaaaaaa~~~~~”

Just as Xia Chuanhu was thinking about his next move, Tiamat in the Sea of ​​Life suddenly parted her lips and sang a strange song.

"boom!!"

The song transformed into a sound wave, stirring up a storm and causing terrifying vibrations in the atmosphere. The waves surged one after another, and then, the shockwave of the song instantly reached Natsukawa Tora and Arcueid!

"Well--!"

"Uh......"

As if hit by a category 10 typhoon, Natsukawa Tiger lost control of the wind around him and was blown away along with Arcueid!

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa————!!”

Tiamat's singing did not stop; her resounding voice created wave after wave of sound and vibrations that reverberated throughout the space around her.

In an instant, the entire ocean seemed to be caught in a storm, becoming turbulent and surging!

"Ugh... Arcueid!"

After being blown more than a hundred meters away in one breath, Natsukawa Tiger quickly flew back to Arcueid's side and hugged her—unlike him, Arcueid could neither fly nor control the wind to make herself fly.

"Are you okay?"

"Of course it's nothing, it was just blown away. But... this isn't good, Tiger."

The mere sound of their cries could cause such terrifying physical effects. If the other party were to actually use their strength to deal with them, Arcueid felt he would have to use the 70% of his power that he used to suppress his vampiric urges.

Otherwise, she would be completely useless and would have no chance of winning.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa————————!”

Tiamat's song rang out again, and a strong shockwave and storm struck the two once more. Natsukawa Tora quickly set up a barrier in front of him, but even so, the two were still uncontrollably blasted dozens of meters away.

And, at the very moment the impact stopped—

[Thump————————————!]

As if struck hard in the heart by a heavy hammer, an immense magical power, so powerful that even Natsukawa Tora couldn't help but hold his breath for a moment, suddenly erupted from Tiamat and pressed down on him and Arcueid.

Their faces turned pale instantly.

(This magic power—)

Previously at the Tokyo Singularity, Natsukawa Torama confiscated a Holy Grail bomb, the power of which was enough to obliterate the entire Imperial Capital. And at this moment, the magical power emanating from Tiamat is almost equal in strength to that Holy Grail bomb!

If that magic is released, everything will be over! Blocking it is pointless; Tiamat could blast Uruk away from this distance!

"Stop her—Arquette!"

"Oh! Tiger!"

Natsukawa Tora and Arcueid simultaneously stretched their hands towards the sky. The sky, which had become incredibly dark due to Tiamat's appearance, was suddenly illuminated and pierced by a dazzling red light!

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom~~~~"

The atmosphere seemed to emit mournful cries.

The space seemed to emit a series of shouts.

As two crimson celestial bodies appeared and fell in the sky, it was as if the whole world was about to be crushed. An immense pressure descended upon every individual below the sky, and the waves caused by Tiamat's singing were forcibly suppressed under this pressure!

Realizing the fantasy!

—Moonset, Double Moon!

"Fall down—!!"

Amidst the furious shouts of Natsukawa Torato and Arcueid, two crimson moons, like divine punishment descended upon a monstrous beast from the blood-red sky, plummeted toward Tiamat with blazing flames!

And a few moments later—

"Thump———————————————————————————!!"

An impact comparable to the destruction of the world swept across the entire Sea of ​​Life!

57. Someone I will absolutely protect.
