Volume 4, Chapter 26 – Heavenly Father

Leaving aside the battle power of the Black Dragon King’s true form, just the strength of his human form alone already had Samael struggling to cope.

After the Black Dragon King revealed his true body, the flow of battle clearly started to tilt toward disadvantage for her.

However, according to Samael’s guess, the Fallen Angels would not just watch Tianyin fall into a bitter fight like this, so next they should be about to bring out some trump card… probably…

At this moment, Tianyin’s proud advantage in speed could not gain the upper hand at all. Although the Black Dragon King’s body was so enormous that it was hard for him to defend against her attacks, Tianyin’s attacks could barely break through his defense.

Yes…

These were attacks that even a Throne-tier opponent would find hard to endure, yet the Black Dragon King was neutralizing Tianyin’s strikes again and again with his scales alone, with ease.

Not only that, the Black Dragon King was not the type who liked to take hits passively. While delighting in defense, he was also launching one powerful blast after another of fiery Dragon Breath at Tianyin.

The Dragon Breath of a Throne-tier being was not something ordinary people could withstand at all. Even after being strengthened by the Seven Original Sins, Tianyin did not dare take a single blast head-on.

『Samael… this guy is way too broken… his defense is even more turtle shell than a turtle shell…』

Facing the battle directly, Tianyin could not help but complain to Samael in her heart.

「Ah… this is actually my first time fighting the Black Dragon King, I had no experience with him before… but I have to admit… the Black Dragon King’s combat skill is above mine… as expected of that old geezer who has survived since ancient times…」

Although she was complaining about the Black Dragon King’s strength, Samael did not slack in the fight.

After narrowly dodging another blast of the Black Dragon King’s Dragon Breath, a huge magic formation suddenly appeared in her field of view, high up in the blood red sky of the Abyss.

Sensing the anomaly at once, Samael warily raised her head. At the same time, the Black Dragon King’s massive body went rigid for a moment.

“A teleportation array from the Sanctuary? Fallen Angels… do you intend to betray Inferno and fully ignite a war between the Abyss and the Sanctuary?”

The Black Dragon King let out an angry roar, yet his lantern sized eyes were filled with terror.

『Samael! The Black Dragon King looks like he’s scared?』

Tianyin keenly sensed the emotion that the Black Dragon King was showing, and toward the formation in the sky, a vague unease also rose in her heart…

“War?”

While Tianyin and the Black Dragon King had paused their battle because of the formation’s appearance, the Fallen Angel Mihiel spread her wings and flew to the very center of the formation.

Then this Fallen Angel who hovered high in the air looked down at the Black Dragon King with an amused gaze.

“We Fallen Angels have never abandoned our faith. How could you call it betraying Inferno and the Abyss?”

“Falling was only a reason given to outsiders, and the Sanctuary is still our Sanctuary. And you, Black Dragon King, have provoked us again and again. Today I am going to connect to the Sanctuary and invite Heavenly Father out to deal with you.”

“So what if Heavenly Father comes? Do you think he can kill me?”

The formation in the sky was already blooming with brilliant light that was completely different from the sky of the Abyss.

And beneath that vast formation, legion after legion of angels that looked incomparably holy slowly appeared under the formation.

“Black Dragon King Xingousa, it has already been a million years since the last time I banished you to Inferno… it really has been… a long time…”

A soft sigh sounded. In Tianyin’s sight, a middle aged man who looked extremely ordinary, so ordinary as to be completely unremarkable, appeared in the formation for the first time.

Although he looked utterly unimpressive, the instant that man appeared, Tianyin instinctively felt an enormous pressure, one she had not felt even when facing the Black Dragon King.

“Eh…”

Sensing that Tianyin was unusual at this moment, the man gave her a surprised look, his gaze flickering nonstop.

However, at that moment the Black Dragon King’s voice cut off the man’s train of thought.

“Heavenly Father, you really dare come. This place is Inferno, not your Sanctuary.”

“Is there a difference, Black Dragon King?”

The man called Heavenly Father showed a harmless looking smile. Behind him, angels wreathed head to toe in holy aura also revealed their true bodies.

“Where I am is the Sanctuary. From the instant I descended here, the rules here have already been rewritten by me.”

Heavenly Father’s words sounded baffling to Tianyin, but Samael, who was controlling her body, noticed the problem.

「Xiaoyin… from the moment this guy descended, the Abyssal power around us that could replenish our strength has already vanished…」

『Eh?』

Tianyin could not help being stunned for a moment.

Likewise, the Black Dragon King sensed something as well, his huge pupils filled with grave seriousness.

“You can already directly affect the rules of the Abyss? Heavenly Father… have you already reached that step?”

“Who knows… however the Supreme is unique. Whether that one exists or not is unknown, but I can feel that it has not gone far and is right beside us… but Black Dragon King, since you know I have taken that step, then you should understand that you are not my match at all, right?”

“Is that so? Although I admit… I’m not your match, don’t look down on us descendants of the Dragon God.”

As the Black Dragon King who had survived from ancient times until now, Xingousa had his own pride.

Even though today’s Black Dragon clan had lost the glory they once possessed, he, the Black Dragon King Xingousa, was not the sort of dragon who would choose to retreat because of a powerful enemy.

“You really overestimate yourself.”

The descended Heavenly Father gave a helpless smile.

“Black Dragon King, if you retreat now it is still not too late. You know I will not kill you.”

“I know… which is exactly why I want to fight you.”

Black Dragon King Xingousa showed no fear. He even opened his dragon jaws directly and unleashed Dragon Breath at Heavenly Father.

Just as Tianyin was wondering in her heart how Heavenly Father would block the Dragon Breath, Heavenly Father gave a small sigh.

“It is useless, Dragon Breath cannot harm me at all.”

As his voice fell, Heavenly Father, who had not made any move to defend, was swallowed up without guard by the Black Dragon King’s breath.

However, after the Dragon Breath faded, Heavenly Father’s figure appeared before everyone’s eyes completely unscathed.

“Black Dragon King… although I will not kill you, as the price for provoking me… I will first sever one of your limbs as punishment.”

Although he had not been hurt, Heavenly Father still decided to punish this Black Dragon King properly.

The next second, under the gaze of all present, one massive scale covered forelimb suddenly separated from the Black Dragon King’s enormous body.

Although the blood was staunched in the next instant, the dragon blood from the severed limb still rained down like a shower.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh…”

With his forelimb suddenly cut off, even someone as strong as the Black Dragon King could not help but let out a cry of pain.
