Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 700 The meeting with a Dragon

In the middle of a distorted area in space, a gigantic being was floating in it asleep. The size of this being had already surpassed the size of a normal star, its beating heart could be heard even in the vacuum of space. It had obsidian scales that shone brightly like the night sky. It had large bat-like wings that could cover several planets which were folded on its back. It had a head that of a gigantic serpent but with razor-sharp fangs. It had four legs which had terrifying-looking claws which resembled that of an eagle. It had a tail that wrapped around its body as it slept. 

This being was none other than a mighty prideful Dragon and this is where he rests. This was one of the few Adult Dragons. Normally even if the area where the Dragon slept was bombarded by a power strong enough to destroy a galaxy he would not bother to even open his eyes and continue to sleep for a few millennia, but at this moment he could not. 

The constant hunting of humans done by the Gods has him feeling mildly irritated, not because he pitied the humans being hunted but because one of their hunting grounds was near the area he was in. The constant battles between them were creating abnormalities in his nest which not to mention his hatred for the Gods made the Dragon who was unable to sleep feel infuriated.

The Dragon had already killed and eaten a few Gods in the area but it did not make his situation better. The Dragon was so annoyed he roared as it opened its wings and flew towards the hunting ground of the nearby God that had displeased him. 

The Dragon used his dragon speech to open up a portal so that he could swiftly dispose of the annoying God. Upon arrival, the Dragon saw quite the ridiculous sight. Several Gods were there but instead of the usual sight of which the hateful Gods were slaughtering humans, what was happening was different. Each God was in their true form but despite that, there was a single human being standing above them as they lay on the ground. 

The Dragon was amazed by the sight as he circled around waiting to see what the human would do next, but instead of doing anything to the Gods, the human looked upward towards him. 

[Human I will not do anything to you so you can continue to do whatever it is you are doing.]

"Heh, that's interesting you're talking directly in my mind. Well, it's not like you're the first one to do so, but unlike those Old Gods your way seems slightly different." 

When the Dragon heard what the human said he could not help but roar angrily making the entire hunting ground rumble and even start to crack. 

[Human I do not care what you do to those Gods, I do not care if you kill or blaspheme against them but never compare me to them!] After shouting in the human's mind the Dragon spat out a small ball of flame as punishment for the slander.

Even though it was considered a small ball of flame by the Dragon, it was still pretty powerful, since that small ball of flame could easily melt a New God and greatly injure an Old God. 

The Dragon didn't want to kill the human but just punish him a little, so he used enough power he thought was sufficient for the punishment. The so-called small ball of flame descended burning away the weaker Gods but as it was about to envelope the human it was suddenly sliced into many pieces and then disappeared. 

"Hoh, I guess you are stronger than most Gods. Still, I didn't really come here to fight I came here to talk to you." 

The Dragon looked at the sword that suddenly appeared in the smiling human's hands. This was a sword that could cut mana apart, which made the disappearance of his flame understandable. 

[Human you have piqued my interest, but as a Dragon I do not have conversations with those whom I do not deem worthy. If you wish to have a discussion with me then you must prove your worth through battle!]

"Hah, now that's what I'm talking about! Ever since I saw you flapping above my head I wanted to fight!" The smile on the human's face became vicious-looking. 

[Very well human state your name.]

"I'm called Erste."

[Erste I Tema of the black Dragon Clan accept your challenge. Show me your worth as a warrior!]

Tema roared louder than ever before, it shook the very souls of the Gods present that were still alive. Tema then started speaking not in the mind of Erste but in his real voice. 

"Rwnneeccrw qaqa griieebbiigr zziissxxiiggzz gojjaago ozaao."

The Dragon started speaking in a language that Erste could not understand, but he felt that a mixture of mana and the energy from the void was forming above his head. Lighting then descended onto the ground. It was as if a flash of light devoured everything in sight, the Gods on the ground could not withstand the attack and immediately perished, on the other hand, Erste used the mana-negating sword to slice open a path for himself. 

Still, even with the effect of the mana-negating sword, it could not cut through the lighting as easily as Erste hoped as it had also a mix of the chaotic energy with the void. Erste who was able to open a path was running upward towards the Dragon Tema. 

Tema opened its mouth and a burst of flames came spraying out of its gigantic mouth. This flame was pure energy and unlike the small ball of flame form before this one was able to cover the entire dimension in flames. 

In Tema's eyes, Erste was devoured by his flames. Seeing that scene Erste had felt a pang of disappointment. Yet at that moment when he thought it was all over Tenma suddenly felt the energy from the void and then he heard the sound of laughter. 

"HAHAHA!!! Incredible this really great!!! Alright then Tenma, I will show you my worth!!!"

As the flames from his breath subsided Tenma saw Erste whose body was scorched and was now holding a different blade. This blade seems to be a manifestation of his very soul that was intertwined with mana and the chaotic energy from the void.
