“Watson, what did you do to me?”
Baldur reached out and touched his mouth. Black blood flowed down his nose, mouth, and even his eyes, blurring his world.
Baldur could feel his body rapidly collapsing as if there was poison in it. However, he did not know when Watson had poisoned him. Perhaps it was when he was fighting the three gods; Watson must have transferred the poison to his body through the attacks of the gods, causing him to be poisoned.
If that was the case, he should have noticed the moment the poison entered his body. Furthermore, it was just a mere poison. He should have been able to heal himself when he used the void warship to heal himself. Why was he still poisoned?
“It’s not that I’ve done anything to you, Lord Baldur. Have you forgotten that there’s another god named Sidi among the gods who participated in the hunt for me? “
“Sidi?”
Baldur narrowed his eyes. As he spoke, the air behind him suddenly fluctuated. A shadow appeared and turned into a kingdom made of shadows. In it, Sidi, who looked like Ash, sat upright on the thrones supported by the shadows’ arms. She held a glass of red wine in her hand and shook it indifferently.
“Baldur, the battle just now was really tragic. Fortunately, I did not join hands with the other gods to attack you. Otherwise, I would have died by now.”
As Sidi spoke, she did not look at Baldur. Instead, her gaze fell on Watson. “Watson, I’ve already done what I promised when I agreed to be your ally and help you. If you survive, don’t forget my contributions. Fuse me the weapon and other things I want.”
“Of course, Lady Sidi. In return, as long as I survive, I’ll help you no matter what you want. “
Watson smiled. The prerequisite was that he survived.
“Sidi, were you the one who poisoned me? Even though you are the Goddess of Shadow and Potion, it’s impossible for me not to notice it. ” When Baldur waved his hand, the warship that was floating in mid-air flew close to him, using the healing rays to envelop his entire body and help him recover.
Unfortunately, his method did not allow his body to heal. Instead, under the illumination of the healing rays, his body collapsed even faster, pieces of flesh already falling off his body.
“Baldur, you’ve misunderstood. First of all, I did not poison you with poison, but a potion that can strengthen that body’s ability. That was something I used before you possessed that body, and I also used different potions on the bodies of other gods. Even Watson had the potion! These potions are nothing in themselves, but when mixed, they are highly toxic.”
“Sidi, it seems that you had already expected that I would come into contact with everyone. You are really a schemer! However, do you think that you have defeated me?”
As Baldur spoke, he extended his right hand. The arm had already lost most of its flesh and was only left with white bones. He grabbed Sidi’s neck and said, “With my current ability, it’s not difficult for me to hold on for a few more minutes. During this time, I can kill you a hundred times! Originally, I swore that as long as anyone could defeat me, I would hand over the right to use the chess pieces to them. But as long as I kill you first, you won’t be able to defeat me. “
The wine cup in Sidi’s hand fell, and the throne made of shadows also collapsed. She could not breathe, and she desperately reached out her hand to hit Baldur’s arm as if she wanted to say something.
The warship had a huge cannon aimed at Sidi. After making sure that Sidi could not escape, Baldur loosened his right hand slightly, and Sidi panted heavily, looking at Baldur with a resentful look.
“Baldur, you attacked me without a word, almost strangling me to death! You’ve made two mistakes from the very beginning. I’ve already told you the first one. What’s in your body is not poison, so you won’t have any reaction. Furthermore, my potion is perfectly coordinated with that body. No matter what you do, you can’t stop that body from collapsing! Secondly, who told you I gave you that potion? Even though I made the potion, if I did not place it in that body, it would not count as me defeating you, would it?”
“You mean—”
Baldur’s expression changed after he understood the meaning of Sidi’s words. He turned his head abruptly and saw that the air not far behind him was distorted. A huge throne appeared, and the figure of King Landhar III appeared on it. The King wore a long robe and a crown on his head; his image was distorted by the throne, only revealing a pair of eyes that could look down on the world. His majestic voice echoed in the surroundings.
“Baldur, I am the one who injected the potion into your body. Your battle, including your strength, is all part of my master plan.”
“Is that you, King Landhar III? No, it can’t be you. I would have thought of it a long time ago.”
Baldur was silent at first, then smiled and said, “You said you would help us get Watson, but in reality, you betrayed us. You are too daring, King Landhar III. Aren’t you afraid that after I leave, I will explain it to the other gods and allow them to descend on you?”
“You do not need to be concerned about that, Lord Baldur. You do not have any more room to fight! When you all took action, I already told the people about a magical device. Many people, I believe, are now aware that the gods are at odds over their beliefs. More than half of people’s beliefs, I believe, will crumble. Aside from that, I have spread the word to other kingdoms. The gods descended into mortal life without being reincarnated. That is against the gods’ rules, and they must be severely punished. I am not sure what the gods of other kingdoms will do to you if they find out. I believe they have already been informed.”
“If you dare to do that, King Landhar III, your actions will cost you the protection of all gods!”
Baldur’s eyes widened, and for the first time, his expression changed. He flew toward King Landhar, and the warship behind him shifted. King Landhar III was correct; gods were not permitted to enter the mortal world. That rule was established by the divine realm’s top elites. Other gods would attack any gods who broke that rule.
The seven gods had dared to visit the Holy Dragon Kingdom because they had long collaborated with King Landhar III. Nobody would have known about it. They had not expected King Landhar III to assist them, and then sell them out. King Landhar III was breaking his promise with them by doing so. They would be unable to gain their trust in the future. The kingdom’s priest would be rendered unusable as well.
“Lord Baldur, my kingdom will no longer require gods from now on. Watson, as the coveted genius you all desire, will soon have everything in his body. I might as well be a god from now on.”
The words of King Landhar III were simple, but they had a commanding air to them. Baldur had already arrived in front of King Landhar II, and he extended his right fist toward him. When the powerful fist carrying the power to shatter stars arrived in front of King Landhar III, it slowly came to a halt. It crumbled into ashes, followed by Baldur’s body. Finally, his eyes, which were filled with apprehension, dissipated.
The warships that filled the sky accompanied him.
All of that occurred in the presence of King Landhar III. He just sat there and did not move.
“Sidi, have you made the potion I asked you to make?”
“Do not worry, I have got it covered.” Sidi rubbed the back of her neck, which had been strangled. “That potion can mimic the effects of the gods’ remains,” he said, pulling a bottle of potion from his pocket and throwing it at King Landhar III. You have the ability to separate your soul from your body and enter the bodies of others.”
“Before you use that potion, I would like to ask if you would have reported me for entering the mortal world to the other gods iif it had not been for the potion I made for you?”
When confronted with Sidi’s question, King Landhar III fell silent and laughed. “What are your thoughts? I will not harm you as long as you remain by my side and support my plan.”
“Whatever you say. Anyway, I am only rooting for the victor.” Sidi snorted but did not respond. Even without saying it aloud, the answer was obvious.
Unlike the other gods who came to hunt Watson, she had given up the hunt from the start because she knew she could not win. She only needed to follow the victor to reap the benefits, regardless of whether that victor was Watson or King Landhar III. That person, in any case, could not be Baldur.
Baldur’s main body in the divine realm should have been in a lot of trouble based on the fact that he had stopped halfway through his attack on King Landhar III. That made Sidi sigh inwardly. Humans had plotted against her; that was humiliating enough. She did not want to mock Baldur because the two humans in front of her were not ordinary people in nature.
King Landhar III left the massive throne and came to Watson after drinking the potion. “Watson, I arrived too late. I have caused you pain.”
“Your Majesty, I believe your arrival marks the beginning of my agony.” Watson shook his head.
King Landhar III remained silent. Nia, on the other hand, frowned. “What does he mean, Your Majesty? Is it your intention to assassinate my master?”
He did not answer the question, but in response, King Landhar III asked, “I noticed you when you were a baby, Miss Nia. I was the one who made it possible for you to live peacefully in the royal city and receive a good education from the Saint Laurent family. Even if you are a god with no emotions, you should feel some gratitude toward me!” I hope you can stand on the sidelines and not intervene. I promise not to let you lose your master, but I will take over the power in Watson’s body.”
King Landhar III was crystal clear. He wished to succeed Watson as Nia’s master. Ordinary people might be angry when they hear such words, but he was confident Nia would not be angry because she was a god with weak emotions. The thing in Watson’s body was the reason she recognized Watson as her master. It was understandable that if he replaced Watson and gained power in his body, he would become Nia’s master.
“Nia, please step aside. Then I will unleash the power of the race chess piece! Even if you are a Child of God with a human body, I may control you under the influence of that power. You probably do not want to be in that situation.”
King Landhar III consoled her once more. In his hand, a shadow of a chess piece appeared. When that chess piece appeared, Watson felt an irresistible sense of suppression. He could not defy King Landhar III’s orders, no matter how hard he tried. When King Landhar III told him he had to die, he did not even flinch.
Nia was still pondering King Landhar III’s words when Watson burst out laughing. “Nia, please step to the side. Do not be concerned about me. I am going to be fine.”
“Master—”
“Get going!”
Nia was about to say something when Watson interrupted her. She could only bite her lower lip and shuffle to the side.
“Watson, I have known you for quite some time. You have the type of personality that I admire. You are also far more powerful than my sons. If at all possible, I hope you are my son! You do not need to be concerned. I will make you my godson and the next king after you die.”
“Do not say such hypocritical things, Your Majesty. You want to be my father, but I do not want to be your son. Having a father like you will make me sick.”
King Landhar III’s eyes glowed with displeasure as he heard Watson’s words, but he suppressed them and slowly walked toward Watson. “You are free to say whatever you want, Watson. In any case, my strategy is already in place. Things will develop as I believe, no matter how hard you try.”
Everything was part of his plan. Before leaving the palace, he not only informed the other gods about the gods’ secret descent, but he also informed the people. As a result, many people’s faith in the gods began to wane. In the future, his goal was to sweep away the church that worshiped the seven gods. He would face far too much opposition.
The gods had brought disaster to the kingdom when they fought Watson. He could seize the opportunity to oust those gods and become the ruler. Since the gods had given their faith, it was not as effective as controlling the faith of the entire kingdom. To achieve that goal, he did not mind reliving the Demoness’ Church’s history from more than ten years ago. All of this was for one purpose—to dethrone the gods and take over Watson’s body.
He had that thought after learning about Watson’s body’s power. The previous agreement with the god, which included the murder of his two sons, was all part of the plan.
The gods would not have been able to possess someone else’s body and take over someone else’s body if he had not helped them come to the world. If his two sons had not died after Watson became king, they would not have been able to accept the outcome and would have opposed Watson. He would bear the pain and murder his two sons. Rather, it would be preferable if his two sons died with some dignity.
His plan included hosting the Royal Academy’s competition and appointing the first-place winner the right to inherit the throne. Only by allowing Watson to take the lead would everyone see how much he valued Watson. Only then would Watson be able to inherit the throne officially, and he would have already been Watson at that point.
“I do not want to waste any more time, Watson! Pay attention to my commands. You are not permitted to resist at this time. Allow me to take control of your body.”
His thoughts abruptly came to a halt. King Landhar III carefully examined the potion Sidi had given him before pouring it into his mouth. A layer of silver-gray viscous liquid appeared on his body immediately after that. It was distinct from God’s Remains. The soul that King Landhar III had burned in his body was grayer and older.
King Landhar III was already nearly 60 years old. Despite the fact that his powerful strength made him appear as young as a middle-aged man, the increase in age made him see the danger. However, Watson was unique. He was only 11 or 12 years old, but he possessed unrivaled talent. His future accomplishments seemed limitless. With Watson’s body, King Landhar III might be able to continue the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s expansion. It was not impossible to make it the most powerful human kingdom in recorded history.
The world would be his if he possessed Watson’s body and gained that power. Even the gods would have to bow to him. With that power, he would be able to grant himself a long-requested wish. King Landhar III’s palm touched Watson, filled with hope for the future.
Silver-gray matter began to seep out of his body and into Watson’s. The procedure was completed in a very short period. Since Watson was not moving, the light in his eyes gradually faded and was replaced by another color.
At that time…
Roar!
A dragon’s roar rang out in the sky. Then, in midair, a massive space passage opened. Countless black-armored knights with light wings on their backs appeared in the sky. All of those knights radiated a powerful diamond-tier aura. They not only had angel wings, but they also had dragon wings and tails. They numbered in the hundreds of thousands.
“Come, protect Young Master Watson. Go!” Allen, the leader of the Blackmoon Knights, said.
A young man with purple hair and elven ears stood at the front of the 100,000 Blackmoon Knights. Some might say he looked like a woman, and his face was filled with a complex expression of mockery and hatred.
“It has been a long time since we last met, King Landhar III. You are surprised to see me now, aren’t you? I am not sure if you want to see me, but I desperately wanted to see you. Let me tell you, 100,000 Blackmoon Knights have all transformed into dragons and angels, thanks to Watson’s potion. Each of them carries a bottle of Ascension Potion, and their strength can be quickly upgraded to starlight-tier.”
What did it mean to have 100,000 starlight-tier elites?
Mount Creation had devoted significant resources to creating 100,000 Blackmoon Knights. There was no extra medicine for the general public.
Sylvan, I know that you have been working with Watson at the border for a long time, and I do not want to care about what you have done. It is not like I am interested in it. You have come to me to brag now. Everything will be mine as long as I control Watson’s body. The stronger your soldiers are, the happier I will be.”
King Landhar III used Watson, who was wrapped in a silver-gray liquid, to speak for him. He was about to take control of Watson’s body.
“King Landhar III, you have no idea what you are about to face. All right, I will let you see it for yourself! Do you know how much effort I have put in all these years to cross the border and come to the capital to face you directly?” Sylvan raised his hands and clapped.
The passage in the sky continued to grow larger and louder. The passage was filled with the sound of the sea, and the sky was filled with the sea tide. The people riding on the sea tide appeared one after the other. Those sea tribes had angelic halos on their backs as well, and they exuded the aura of an elite group. Their leader was Poseidon.
Owen and Alice stood next to Poseidon. When Alice saw how King Landhar III had consumed Watson, she could not help but take a step forward. “Brother Watson, are you okay?” she asked, about to rush out when Owen stopped her.
“Do not be alarmed, Alice. For the time being, Young Master Watson is fine. Everything is up to Young Master Watson now!”
Owen turned to face King Landhar III after saying that. “This is the capital of the Holy Dragon Kingdom,” he said with killing intent in his blue eyes. “I have always wanted to submerge the human kingdom and turn it into an ocean! Young Master Watson changed the sea folks’ fate. He is not someone who can be corrupted by a despicable human king like you. If you do not stop, I will make your death very unpleasant.”
When Owen stopped her, Alice bit her lower lip. Even though she desperately wanted to be by Watson’s side, she had to put up with it. She had left the sea folk to meet Watson in the capital. However, before she could leave, she noticed a strange occurrence in the direction of the royal city. Then she received an order from Mount Creation, which summoned not only her but all the sea folks to the royal city.
“Are you part of the sea folks?”
Watson was coerced by King Landhar III to look up at the sky, his eyes wide with surprise.
Watson’s ability to control the sea creatures surprised him.
There were more than 100,000 sea folks in front of him, each with a platinum-tier aura. Some of them were even more powerful than others.
It was not the strength of that group of sea tribe members that surprised him, but the fact that Watson had secretly controlled the sea tribe in a location he was unaware of. He had no idea that controlling the sea tribe was the same as controlling the ocean. That was something the human kingdoms had always wanted to do but had been unable to do.
Before the shock wore off, King Landhar III noticed a tunnel appear in the air once more. It was no longer an army that appeared in the tunnel, but a star. The star was filled with the roars of dragons. The massive dragons that appeared in the air had dragon auras. Each of those dragons was a Dragon King, and there were millions of them.
A few dragons stood in front of those Dragon Kings, their auras even stronger than Baldur and the other gods.
“This place appears to be quite lively. Odyssey, the Light Dragon King, is here to protect you, Young Master Watson! I hope you do not go too far, human king. It is best if you let the Dragon Emperor go. Because we can still let you go. Otherwise, you will just have to wait for death.”
The Light Dragon King stood among the Dragon Gods, his aura was powerful. He placed his hands on his hips.
‘Is he a Dragon King? The Dragon King is speaking with the Dragon Emperor, Watson. When did Watson become the Dragon Emperor?”
The expression on King Landhar III’s face could no longer be described as shocked. His nerves started trembling, causing his scalp to go numb. He was already aware that Watson had done something in the Dragon Lair. Unfortunately, no matter how many questions he posed to Watson, he remained silent. He could imagine Watson providing many benefits to the dragons, but he did not expect Watson to elevate the dragons to that level.
As Watson had predicted, he had truly made a name for the dragons.
There were also millions of dragons floating in the sky. Every Dragon Clan had a Dragon King, and the leaders of the most powerful Dragon Clans were even like Dragon Gods. The gods would not have hunted Watson if he had summoned those Dragon Gods to help him.
“Take a look at the sky. What are those?”
People fleeing due to the lava outside the capital noticed changes in the sky and looked up. They witnessed a shocking scene.
The sky had been divided into three sections. One had humans dressed in black armor with the appearance of an angel and a dragon. The sea tribe was riding on the waves in the sky, next to the human army. Over a million massive dragons surrounded them.
“Is that the sea tribe? Why did they throw seawater into the sky? When did the sea tribe learn to fly and have wings?”
“And there are far too many dragons. At first glance, there appear to be over a million of them. Why are there so many dragons? Are you sure we’re not dreaming?”
When the residents saw the scene in the sky, some were so terrified that they sat down on the ground. The brave ones forgot to flee, and the luggage in their hands fell to the ground without their knowledge.
Then there was the war between the gods, followed by a slew of unknown armies. They had been so shocked by the series of traumas that they could not recover their senses, and their minds were blank.
King Landhar III, who was wrapped around Watson’s body in the sky, paused his invasion. He suppressed the shock in his heart after a brief period of silence. “A million dragons, a hundred thousand armies, and a hundred thousand sea folks. Such power is sufficient to sweep across the globe and dominate all known kingdoms. I can not believe Watson has risen to such heights! Watson can be considered one of the top geniuses in the kingdom’s history even without the assistance of that thing. I have to say, I admire him.”
The fact that he had quietly amassed such a massive army in the kingdom made King Landhar III realize that Watson’s Severed Fingers gang in front of him was only the tip of the iceberg of his immense power. Leaving everything else aside, even King Landhar III would have had a headache if Watson had brought such a powerful force to invade them. It would have taken them an instant to destroy the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s army.
Simultaneously, he felt fortunate that such an army had appeared in front of him at that precise moment. If he did not know Watson was keeping that force hidden, it would undoubtedly become a hidden danger in the future.
He might have lost if he had not intervened and allowed the seven gods who guarded the kingdom to descend on a hunt for Watson.
King Landhar III sighed. He had not intended to start looking for Watson so soon. Watson was entirely to blame for not telling the truth after returning from the Dragon Lair. He was concerned that something unexpected would occur, so he had planned ahead of time. It was fine to say he was narrow-minded or cautious, but he survived precisely because of those characteristics.
“I have had enough of your clout. It is truly amazing. Once I take over Watson’s body, I will definitely make good use of you.”
Slowly, King Landhar III spoke. His mood had improved after the shock. What was the point, no matter how powerful those people were? Could they prevent him from assuming control of Watson’s body?
More than half of his body had already integrated with Watson’s body at that point. It would be the equivalent of murdering Watson if he attacked him. No matter how powerful those people were when he fused with Watson and grasped that fusion system, he could not wave his hand and fuse with them, transforming them into his power.
“Don’t you understand, King Landhar III? You don’t have a chance anymore.”
Sylvan was unmoved by King Landhar III’s words. He shook his head and reached into his pocket for a bottle of potion. “Everyone, please pay attention to my command. Go for it!”
As soon as his voice faded, a tube of potion appeared in the hands of every creature present, whether humans, sea tribes, or dragons. The potion had the appearance of a clock. The liquid dial and needle continued to rotate. It was known as the Ascension Potion.
The Ascension Potion could temporarily transport a person to the starlight tier, and everyone had a million ascension potions at their disposal. The potion could produce a million starlight-tier elites in a short period, but the appearance of a million starlight-tier elites at the same time was beyond the mortal world’s ability to withstand.
Ordinary starlight-tier elites would be ejected from the world as soon as they achieved starlight-tier status. That was because the power released by starlight-tier elites exceeded the limit that the world could withstand and would cause harm to the world, not to mention that a million starlight-tier elites would descend at the same time. What kind of havoc would a million gods unleashing their power on the world cause?
No one knew what the answer was.
Sylvan took the initiative and drank the Ascension Potion first. Golden flames immediately erupted from his body. Every hair was spewing air currents, and his hair transformed into light and floated in the air. Above his head, an illusion of a god the size of a star appeared. It looked eerily similar to him.
Following that, all of the Blackmoon Knights drank the Ascension Potion. At that moment, 100,000 gods descended, and 100,000 layers of massive starlight illusions appeared in the sky. The sky was ripped apart by a powerful force. It split the sky above the royal city in two, revealing a massive crack. The ground, as well as the sky, began to crack and collapse. It felt as if the entire world was about to fall apart.
The 100,000 sea tribes began to move after the 100,000 Blackmoon Knights did that. As they drank the Ascension Potion, another 100,000 powerful divine projections appeared in the world, as did huge human figures formed from starlight squeezed together. The sky fell, the earth cracked, and the air became viscous.
That sensation was similar to a balloon the size of a human head. However, someone had poured tens of times its volume of water into the balloon, causing it to be crushed.
That was the state of the world at the time. The earth was being ripped apart, and cracks appeared on the surface. The event tore the capital apart. Hundreds of people stood on a plot of land. They cried for their relatives and friends on another piece of land as they looked at the deep, invisible cracks in the ground that had been torn apart in horror.
It was the same in the sky. Many pairs of eyes as bright as stars had appeared behind the ripped sky. They swung back and forth between light and darkness. Previously, people separated by the sky thought the flickering things were stars. However, they soon discovered that those things were, in fact, the eyes of gods. Many gods were lying on the torn sky’s back. Their enormous and terrifying faces were stuck in the sky, revealing greedy expressions.
“Please, Mom, save me.”
“What are those monsters that appear in the sky? Could they be the gods we used to worship?”
After seeing the true faces of the gods, many of the once devout believers’ beliefs crumbled. Their first impression of the gods was that they were humans engulfed in holy light, with benevolent expressions on their faces. Aside from their massive bodies, they exuded an intense power. Some of them had no resemblance to human aesthetics at all. Just looking at them causes numbness in the scalp.
The gods had to pay a price to gain power as a higher-tier life form. Beauty was one of the prices.
The world served as a barrier. Initially, humans were unable to see gods through the barrier. However, the power of 200,000 starlight-tier elites instantly pierced a hole in the barrier, allowing the people inside to see the world outside through the hole. That sensation was similar to humans observing a pet trapped in a cage. Humans, on the other hand, were the gods’ pets.
Not only did the majority of the people in the royal city who witnessed the true form of the gods suffer from mental breakdowns, but King Landhar III’s mind, who was occupying Watson’s body, also became unstable.
“What are you going to do, Sylvan, you madman? Are you going to die alongside me?”
He had previously plotted against the gods because what he saw in front of him was only a projection of the gods. The gods’ actual bodies could not appear due to the rejections from the world’s laws. However, if the world was destroyed, the gods would be able to send their bodies down. King Landhar III noticed that among the gods looking around in the sky, there were a few who were enraged. Even though it was only for a split second, he realized those were Baldur’s and the other gods’ gazes.
He had previously plotted against those gods. He would not have a happy ending if the world split open and they entered, even if he took over Watson’s body, because Watson could not compete with the countless gods in the divine realm.
King Landhar III understood Watson’s thoughts and what Sylvan meant when he said he had lost at that moment. If he took over Watson’s body, those people would all take the Ascension Potion at the same time, causing the world to shatter and everyone to perish together. It would be his failure if he chose to take over Watson’s body.
They would either die together, or he could choose to stop. There was no way to predict either outcome.
“If at all possible, I would like to assassinate you personally in order to avenge my sister.
However, in the current situation, it is not a bad thing to have a chance to die alongside you! If I let you have Watson’s body, I will not be able to avenge myself in the future. I might as well assassinate you right now.” Sylvan gave a sad smile. His eyes shone with determination.
“I am willing to die for Young Master Watson.”
“Long live Young Master Watson!”
The 100,000 Blackmoon Knights and 100,000 sea folks yelled simultaneously. Originally, Mount Creation had amassed unfathomable wealth. Only 100,000 Blackmoon Knights had arrived because their wealth had been used to fuse and create the Ascension Potion.
“Human King, you have yet to leave the Dragon Emperor’s body. You are extremely obstinate. Since that is the case, the Dragon Clan will not be deterred by formalities! All the dragons will drink the Ascension Potion for the sake of the Dragon Emperor!” The Light Dragon King, Odyssey, noticed that, despite King Landhar III’s reluctance, he did not leave Watson’s body. He snorted coldly and raised his hand to the Ascension Potion.
“Consume the Ascension Potion to pave the way for the Dragon Emperor!
The dragons all yelled at the same time. Their voices echoed throughout the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
Watson provided them with their strength. Watson had given them new leases on life. They had no choice but to assist Watson if he were in trouble. After all, even if they shattered the world and entered the realm of the gods, they would be able to survive with their strength.
King Landhar III could not keep it in any longer when he saw a million dragons were prepared to drink the potion and let the world fall apart. “Enough already! I admit I messed up this time. I will not occupy Watson’s body again.”
As he spoke, the grayish-white liquid he had transformed into left Watson’s body and reverted to his original form. Watson’s body trembled, and color began to appear in his eyes.
“You are ruthless, Watson,” King Landhar III said to Watson, his face tense. He appeared to be filled with remorse.
“Your Majesty, you are far too gracious. I, too, racked my brains to devise this strategy. If you are ruthless enough to choose to die with me, I have no other option.” Watson smiled slightly as he noticed King Landhar III remained silent for a brief moment before abruptly extending his right hand.
“Do not budge.”
At that moment, a man dressed as a clown appeared beside King Landhar III. He had a sad expression on his face. His hand was resting on King Landhar III’s neck. The mere touch of his skin caused King Landhar III’s body to tremble. He could sense the terrifying power in the person next to him. It even outperformed a common god. He had no idea when that person had appeared.
With his speed and strength, he could remove himself from Watson’s body, and he could also knock him out, preventing him from temporarily possessing him.
“It appears that even if I were ruthless enough, I would not be able to achieve the desired result. Watson, I was completely lost at the time.”
King Landhar III’s eyes flickered a few times before he sighed and closed his eyes. As he extended his right hand, his expression seemed to have aged a few years. “Do not be alarmed, Your Majesty. I am not going to do anything else to Watson. I just want to give him the race chess piece! Watson has defeated me, despite the fact that he used a threatening method. As a result, that divine artifact is his..”
