Question, Understand, Become a Holy Lord

"Hey! How dare you actually step on my head? That's disrespectful!" Draco shook his head and scolded Denise loudly.

"Since you don't want to fight anymore, how about we talk?" Denise bent down and patted Draco's nose and said.

"How dare you say that? I can still fight with you for the whole day!" Draco said this, but his body honestly began to change and returned to its original human form.

At this point, she really no longer had the desire to fight with Denise. Firstly, Draco was already very satisfied after Denise had overcome her fate of corruption; secondly, as she said, if they really fought, it would be a long process no matter which side was stronger.

Her means would be cut off by Denise, and Denise's strongest blow would not be able to affect Draco. If they got into a long and protracted battle, it would only ruin Draco's good mood at the moment. Draco stayed away from such a not-so-glamorous thing as a fierce battle.

"What's wrong with you? Why did your strength suddenly increase so much like a rocket?" Draco sat on the ground and asked Denise curiously.

"I am also looking for the reason. I originally expected that I might become stronger because of your flesh and blood and be qualified to fight with you. The current accident is indeed far beyond my expectations. But no matter what, I have to thank you, both for giving me so many opportunities and for allowing me to become what I am now." Denise retracted her wings, took off the dragon scales on her body, and knelt down in front of Draco calmly.

"Tsk, useless fat is really an eyesore." Draco could tell that Denise was telling the truth, so he didn't continue to ask. Instead, he stared fiercely at the fullness of Denise's chest.

At the beginning, when Denise was still wearing her combat uniform, Draco already felt that these two lumps of fat were a bit annoying. Then, when this pair of beautiful rabbits were wrapped in dragon scales, Draco could still deceive himself that these were padded with dragon scales by Denise.

It was not until Denise knelt down in front of him with her slender waist straightened, that Draco realized that Denise was bigger than he had imagined. The clothes and dragon scales actually restrained her existence!

'If it's Denise's knees, can I see the sky over those guys in the way? 'Draco thought sadly, looking at his almost flat body, and then looking at Denise's amazingly plump body against her slender waist.

"I wanted to ask you before, are you the kind of person who would care about this?" Denise brushed her hand across her chest. The pair of guys who were eager to try because of Denise's actions made Draco's already red eyes even redder.

"Ah, ah, yes! I am such a superficial person. I also want a beautiful and charming body. Is there anything wrong with that?! My previous body was obviously not small, so why does it take so long for this body of mine to grow? This must be the malice from the world! The world must be jealous of my beauty!" Draco shouted in self-destruction, and looking at her appearance, he almost lay on the ground and rolled around.

"So your wish is to grow up quickly?" Facing Draco at this moment, Denise asked softly like a gentle older sister.

"How is that possible? Do I look like someone who would be bothered by such a trivial matter?!" Draco denied loudly, and his tail behind him slapped the ground again and again.

"So what is your wish?" Denise felt that this experience was very interesting. She had been very quiet and obedient since she picked up Claire. She had also thought that it would be nice if Claire could be more lively. But in an instant, Claire was even older than her and had her own partner.

Draco, who has a childlike personality and a body more like a child, is very much what Denise wants. Now that there is no need to fight, Denise naturally wants to stay with Draco for a while longer.

"I want to spread my love all over the world!" Draco said proudly.

"Really? What a great dream..." After hearing what Draco said, Denise fell into deep thought. What should she do after she returned?

At the beginning, Denise's purpose in participating in the Holy Grail War was just to gain the power to protect Claire and her hometown. After the mutation, a single [Descendant of the Dragon] is only at the level of an Abyss Dweller. It is still unknown whether the strongest [Descendant of the Dragon] can reach the strength of Prasia.

For Denise, even the strongest Priscilla was just a little more trouble and could not be considered a threat. If she had not felt pity for her and let down her guard during her lifetime, she would not have been killed by her. As a result, Claire experienced the same pain as herself in the days that followed.

However, if she were to face a huge empire as her opponent, Denise was not confident enough that her strength had reached that level, so she came here to seek stronger power.

But now this goal has been exceeded without winning. Even if facing those two powerful empires, Denise has absolute confidence in winning. Therefore, Denise can't help but feel a little confused about what her future life will be like.

Claire and Laki have already made a life commitment. When she woke up, the little girl who had always been following her had not only grown up and was able to take charge of her own affairs, but had even decided on her future direction. This made Denise wonder if she had already grown old...

"Hey, pay attention to me! I haven't finished what I'm saying yet!" Draco waved his hand in front of Denise with dissatisfaction, bringing Denise who was lost in her memories back to reality.

"Sorry." Denise asked Draco for forgiveness apologetically, but Draco didn't take it to heart.

"However, because my love is so passionate that no one or the world can bear it, I want to make a wish that both humans and the world can enjoy my passionate love safely and equally!"

Draco stood up from the ground, raised his arms and shouted, and the clear sound echoed for a long time throughout the ancient Roman Colosseum.

"What a great wish. Then... I declare that Draco's love will be accepted by the world." The trace of the third Command Spell disappeared from Denise's body. At this point, all three of her Command Spells had been used up. It can be said that she took the initiative to hand the victory to Draco.

"You...Yu..." Draco did not expect that Denise would be so decisive in using the last Command Spell to bless him. He stammered and was unable to speak.

"You have won this battle. Show your burning love to the world." Denise stood up, smiled and touched Draco's head.

Chapter 196 Two People Abandoned by the World

The battle between Draco, the beast of [Fallen], and Denise, the dragon of [Origin and End], ended with Denise's voluntary surrender. The two sat leisurely in the center of the ancient Roman Colosseum, having a pleasant conversation, waiting for the end of the Holy Grail War.

At the same time, on another battlefield, in the center of the Sea of Origin that gave birth to countless lives, the Mother Goddess of Creation Tiamat was having a joyful exchange with her challenger.

"Aa——AAa——! (Those children are too much! I gave birth to them, and they once loved me, but in the end they used me as a stepping stone to leave me and go to a new era. Only I was abandoned. It's too much!)" Tiamat complained excitedly to the figure in front of her.

This is a beautiful, neat and tidy woman with man-made beauty and dark green hair. She can be at ease in front of Tiamat, the goddess of creation who holds the principle of "return", but just one look at her can describe her with words such as "fragile" and "breakable" that are used to describe fine porcelain.

"Yeah, it's really too much." Nanami, who was wearing a patched light green kimono, nodded in agreement.

“AAaa——! AAAaaa——?! AAa—— (What do you mean the ecosystem has been established? I, who can randomly design life, am useless. That’s not the case! As long as you ask nicely and communicate with me, the mother, I will definitely fulfill the children’s wishes. The world is not such a fragile thing. Why do you want to lock me up in that [Imaginary Space] where there is nothing?! It’s so lonely there…)”

Having finally found someone to talk to, Tiamat poured out all her troubles and grievances to Nanami in front of her, and even crystal tears overflowed from her beautiful star eyes.

"Be good, don't cry. This damn world is a mess, it's the same no matter which side you are on!" Nanami stepped forward and tiptoed to touch Tiamat's hair. The two people who were equally hated and abandoned by the world started a weird but harmonious way of getting along.

Tiamat, the mother goddess of creation, is one of the creation gods in Mesopotamian mythology. All gods were born from Abzu, who was fresh water, and Tiamat, who was salt water.

Tiamat was used as the soil that nurtured life, but when the earth's environment stabilized and the ecosystem was established, she was banished to the [Mother Sea] in the imaginary world (the inner world, not even a parallel world, but an imaginary space without life) as a useless thing... Now that the ecosystem has been established, she who can randomly design life is no longer useful.

Tiamat is simply an obstacle to life's acquisition of intelligence consistent with this planet.

The hatred, disgust and sadness of being betrayed and abandoned by her own children made her take advantage of the collapse of human nature and become a human evil with the principle of "return", making Tiamat a major obstacle on the road for the original Chaldean group.

Tiamat's return is also to reshape the earth's ecosystem, to indulge in the joy of returning as the mother of all things, so that she will no longer be alone.

If Tiamat enjoyed the love of her own children when she was first born, and was later expelled as an obstacle, then Nanami has been suffering from the malice of the entire world since her birth.

Nanami Kagami is a character in the light novel "Sword Language" and its derivative works. She is a frail genius who possesses the ultimate eye that can see through everything in the world.

She has possessed unprecedented strength since she was born. Because her body cannot accommodate it, she is forced to be weak and is always on the verge of life and death. Therefore, she is proficient in copying the opponent's moves (the skill of the genius eye [Jian Ji Gu] also known as [Guan Wu]).

Jian Ji Gu means that no matter what it is, whether it is written words, the use of weapons, various strange martial arts, or even physical fitness, such as the genetic abilities of other races, as long as it is everything in the world, as long as you have seen it with your own eyes once, you can completely understand it and use it skillfully. It is an ability that is almost like a monster.

The reason why Nanami was able to understand Tiamat's words and communicate with her normally was because she learned Tiamat's language in the shortest time possible.

This powerful ability can be called a divine talent no matter what world it is placed in. Even after being weakened and split, it is enough to become the biggest plug-in for countless protagonists. However, its real use for Nanami is actually to prolong his life, learn the opponent's skills, and apply them, thereby avoiding using his own strength.

For Nanami, her talents are not something that can be contained in a mere human body, so she craves the weakness in the name of others' strength, just like pouring warm water into boiling water will lower the water temperature - she keeps [seeing the past] in the hope of living longer.

Nanami is a woman who should never have been born.

From the very beginning, she had already arrived without doing anything. Even if she did not practice, exercise, study or exercise, she could still effortlessly display the ultimate martial arts and swordsmanship that most martial artists would find difficult to master even if they bleed from their mouths.

Her father, Tan Liuzhi, refused to teach Tan Nanami any martial arts because he found that Tan Nanami's potential was too great. However, he underestimated Tan Nanami's ability and let her see his teaching scene, so Tan Nanami learned it instantly.

After learning about the extraordinary strength of Tan Nanami, Tan Liuzhi wanted to kill him, but was easily killed by Tan Nanami.

This foul-level power can't even be described as 'powerful'.

Nanami's talent is so overbearing and terrifying that even the world can hardly tolerate her existence.

Therefore, the world condemned her with jealousy.

Because she was too good, [One Hundred Million Diseases] were given into her body. Every disease with a mortality rate close to 100% was stuffed into her body without restraint - every disease caused chronic complications - and tortured her body without restraint.

However, Nanami's genius was so great that even these diseases could not be overcome, and neither the poison nor the disease could take his life away.

No matter how much pain she felt, no matter how dying she was, her body would not choose to die. She was extremely sick and extremely weak, but she struggled at her limit and survived.

That fragile porcelain-like appearance and daily sickly tone and behavior are not a disguise. She is suffering pain and torture every moment. This is the most true portrayal of the life of the girl named Nanami.

Therefore, Nanami and Tiamat, two people who were equally despised by the world, determined that the other was of the same kind the moment they observed each other, and out of mutual respect, neither of them had any intention of taking action.

Although in Tiamat's eyes all life on Earth and even all humans in all worlds are her children, Nanami's nature that is different from that of humans makes Tiamat treat her as her own child and regard her as an equal to herself.

Tiamat was both happy and sad that she had met someone so similar to her. She was happy that there was a companion in this world who could fully understand her, but she was sad that this companion was in a similar situation to her and had hardly enjoyed love since birth.

Qi Shimizu also had the same feeling. Compared with her short life of more than ten years, the loneliness that Tiamat experienced was really too long. After enjoying the love of children, she was ruthlessly abandoned by her own children.

In comparison, I am… well, not much better. Nanami felt inexplicably sad. She was used to it, but when Tiamat cried in front of her, she felt that she was a little too miserable.

Furthermore, if a fight really breaks out, Nanami will have to use Jianjiko to increase her strength. Once her strength becomes too strong, the [One Hundred Million Diseases] in her body will erupt completely, and she will face a tragic end after a brief bloom. Moreover, the abilities she acquired through Jianjiko will not disappear just because she is defeated in the Holy Grail War. When she returns to that lonely island, she will only be greeted by an ugly death.

Nanami never thought of fighting when she participated in this Holy Grail War. She just treated it as a journey to another world with the mentality of broadening her horizons. Of course, if there was a way to win without fighting, she would not refuse.

"Aaa—— (Don't be sad, I will be with you.)" Tiamat felt the sadness in Nanami's heart, reached out to cover Nanami's little hand that was stroking her head, and then used her other free hand to put on Nanami's head to comfort him.

"Thank you, Tia. Even if it's only for this period of time during the Holy Grail War, let us two 'poor' guys keep each other warm." Nanami felt that this trip was indeed the right one.

"Aa——(But I want to be with you forever.)" Tiamat said a little lost, and even her voice became weak.

"Forever... that's too far away. Even if we can be together, I'm just an ordinary person. I can't accompany you, Tia, forever." There is only tomorrow in Nanami's life. Her fragile life may be taken away by the malice from the world at any time. Let alone forever, it is already a blessing for Nanami to be able to open her eyes after waking up every day.

"Aa——(Do you want to try the Command Spell?)" Tiamat suddenly thought of the three benefits given for landing in this Holy Grail War, so she proposed to Nanami.

"Then let's try it. There's no harm anyway. I hope that I, who am despised by the world, can get blessings from the gods." Nanami also felt that Tiamat's suggestion was worth a try. After all, her situation would not get worse.

"Command Seal, let me be free from the torment of illness from now on." Nanami gave his first order to the Command Seal on the back of his hand.

A light flashed above the Command Seal, and a feeling of ease and relief filled Nanami's body and mind at that moment, but this feeling was fleeting. After [One Hundred Million Diseases], a new bad feeling once again submerged Nanami's body and mind in the malice of the world.

"Succeeded, but failed again." Removing the violent and dark emotions from his heart, Nanami looked at Tiamat's worried eyes and said helplessly.

Clearly there was hope, but this hope was blocked by even deeper despair the next moment, and Nanami almost wanted to give up on himself.

"AAa——(After the disease retreats, a curse arises from the heart.)" Tiamat nervously and carefully examined Nanami's condition, and finally came to the following conclusion.

"Curse, I am indeed a cursed person..." Nanami said with some self-mockery after hearing what Tiamat said.

"But this doesn't mean that I will surrender! Command Seals, here is my second order. I want the curse not to fall on me!" Nanami's soft but firm voice sounded again, and the second Command Seals at this moment turned into her resistance to her own fate.

The light of purification flashed across Nanami's body, and the curse originating from the world's malice vanished under the radiance of the Command Seal.

There was not even a moment of gratitude for the removal of the curse, as the next thing that rushed into the body of the Seventh Sword was the world's sincere blessing to him!

"Aa——! (This is simply too much!)" Tiamat felt the excessive blessings on Nanami and became extremely angry. This step-by-step attitude was worse than anything she had faced before. She simply didn't want to give Nanami any hope.

It is foolish to talk about toxicity without talking about dosage. Too much honey is like arsenic, and the same goes for the "blessing" that the world gives to Nanami.

Blessings so dense that they cannot be counted become a new "curse" after being combined with each other. The effect of the malicious "blessing" is even greater than that of a pure curse.

"Aaa—— (I declare that the person before me will not be troubled by blessings.)" Tiamat stretched out her right hand towards Nanami with a beautiful chanting voice, and used the first stroke of the Command Seal to bring a true blessing to her 'enemy'.

"Huh~ Thank you, Tia. That was so disgusting just now that I almost couldn't breathe." Nanami said after a long sigh.

Just now she felt as if she saw her father, who had always disliked her, suddenly dressed up and greeted her in a soft voice. It was disgusting. Nanami, who had already suffered from various illnesses in her short life, couldn't help but get goose bumps and even felt a little nauseous.

"Aa—— (How is it, has it used any other tricks?)" Tiamat touched Nanami with concern, like a mother who is worried that her child might get accidentally bumped.

"Not for now." Jian Qishi carefully felt his body, then shook his head: "But this is definitely not the end, it may be waiting for me to return."

Chapter 197 Let Me Give Birth to You

Qi Shi moved his body happily. Even if this was only a temporary relief, even if there were unknown challenges waiting for him after returning to his original world, this healthy body at this moment was enough to make Qi Shi feel that he had made a great profit.

"Aa——(Congratulations.)" Tiamat was also happy for her new friend and shouted with joy.

"Tia, most of my problems have been solved, so it's your turn now." Without being too presumptuous for too long, Qi Shi controlled his mood and prepared to help Tiamat think of a solution.

“Aaa——(Don’t worry, I can handle it myself.)” Tiamat told Nanami not to worry, she had absolute confidence in herself.

“How can you feel at ease? You are so soft-hearted and stupid. You will surely fail because you cannot bear to do anything to your own child. Then you will be thrown back into the imaginary space where there is no other life.” Although there is a huge generation gap between the two in age, in Nanami's opinion, Tiamat, the Mother Goddess of Creation, is really silly and cute.

"AAa——AAaa——! (Nana, you're going too far. How can you say I'm stupid? Besides, those children betrayed and abandoned me. I will definitely not show mercy!)" Tiamat said rather unconvinced.

"Let's just take it as it is. Then, Tia, can you tell me about your plan?" Qi Shi sat down on the black mud somewhat helplessly, and at the same time patted his side to let Tiamat sit next to him.

“Aa——Aaa——…” Tiamat sat obediently beside Nanami and began to draw her own grand blueprint for him.

"You, you still dare to say that you are not stupid, you have been used as a gun and you don't even know it." For the time being, Qi Shi did not want to comment on Tiamat's simple and crude plan to rebuild the ecosystem, but said with hatred.

"Aa——(Nana, you called me stupid again. If you keep going like this, even I will be angry.)" Tiamat said somewhat smugly.

"You said that you were able to return because of the collapse of human nature, then do you know why human nature collapsed?" Nanami looked at the silly mother speechlessly and said.

“AAaa——Aaa——(Of course I know. Don’t underestimate my intelligence network. It’s because that guy Goetia tried to use human principles as fuel to recreate the world.)” Tiamat said proudly.

"And then? Do you know what his purpose is in replaying the world?" Yan Qishi patted Tiamat's arm and told her to be more obedient and not get carried away so quickly.

"AAa——(Does it matter?)" Tiamat tilted her head and looked at Nanami in confusion, not understanding why she asked that.

"You big-headed ghost! Have you concentrated all the nutrients that should be given to your brain on your body? What if there is no place for you and your child in the world after the reappearance of Goetia, what will you do?" Nanami couldn't help but complain. She has lived for so long but is still so naive. If she is allowed to act alone, she will definitely be deceived along with her!

"Aaa——(I will defeat him!)" Tiamat said in a firm tone.

"How strong is Goetia?" Qi Shi continued to ask Tiamat.

"Aa—— (very strong.)" Tiamat said honestly. In the brief contact not long ago, Tiamat vaguely felt that Goetia might be the strongest one among the group of beasts except her (Fufu did not regard them as enemies yet, so they were not included in the calculation for the time being).

"Compared to you?" Nanami poked Tiamat's dragon horn.

"AAaa—— (Should be a little weaker than me, right?)" After all, they had never really fought, and Tiamat couldn't be sure of the difference in strength between the two sides. She just felt that she couldn't weaken her momentum, so she said decisively.

"So you are confident that you can win?" Qi Shi saw that Tiamat's voice was harsh and he didn't intend to expose her for the time being.

"Aa——(We will win!)" Tiamat said firmly. She had a reason not to lose!

"You big head ghost!" Finally, Qi Shi couldn't help it. He stood up, clenched his small fist and smashed it towards Tiamat's head.

“Aaaa——(Even if I can’t win, I won’t lose…)” Tiamat said aggrievedly, covering her head which didn’t hurt at all.
