Chapter 1149 Cap 1147: Alliance Part 4
My body transforms as it grows, I’ve never bothered to measure my size in this Dragon form, as this isn’t my first time assuming this form, I don’t have to endure the pain of having my body remodeled.
Black crystal scales full of stars grow all over my body, larger and thicker scales on my back, while smaller and thinner scales are in front of me.
My red hair becomes ethereal as if it were made of red energy, 3 pairs of wings open from my back with the inside of the wings looking like a reflection of the universe around me, my tail extends much further while several crystal spikes grow through its full length and the blade in its lane becomes that much more brutal with its serrated edge.
When invoking my Aura Relic an Eclipse with a drop of blood in the middle is formed using all my Aura before shattering forming a Dragon with the fragments coming towards me, when it collided against my body there was no impact when the Dragon fell apart and the fragments take position on my body in succession becoming an Armor for me.
All this while my Holy Power was extracted from my body at a point in mine where the space seems to voluntarily open to pass a sword with a black stellar blade and a hilt made of Dragon bones.
I hold this sword that feels like it was made for my hand so well I feel the grip of the hilt, then a rush of power runs through my veins going to Armor before coming back to me and then going to the sword flowing to me once more in this endless cycle.
The power coursing through my body was greater than anything else, I don’t need to build a Territory right now, just good old brutality being enough.
My killer instinct is no longer being restrained as I stand in readiness for the carnage I plan, each of my senses going to their limit.
I also feel some of my power and Authority flowing from me to my Familiars, their powers also reaching their limits.
At that moment I see the monsters called Locusts of Death more closely, many of them looked like Locusts with their long legs and other features, but I noticed that many have body parts if other creatures, some had scorpion tail, another had bee body parts and one of them even had a lower body like a centipede.
It was more like they were several species of insect monsters, rather than just 1 race, but from the similarity in their Auras, I can tell that they are similar to each other.
I looked to the side when I saw something very strange, Hinata’s whole body was opening up revealing many details and in the center an endless darkness like a bottomless well, from this darkness black arms and tentacles emerged when a creature appeared.
The first thing that came were several oh-horrible black arms and tentacles, but among them a white arm appeared followed by another that forced Hinata’s already wide open body to open even more, the arms and tentacles helping to pull out a figure that soon she turned out to be a colossal adult woman, her skin was pale white like candle wax, the horrible black tentacles were her long hair, the arms of different shapes and sizes were part of her grotesque dress made of body parts, chains being worn around her her waist, neck, arms, and legs as if she had just stepped out of a prison, her eyes closed and face showing no emotion, everything about this woman was horrifying with phantom faces emerging from her clothes and hair as if begging for release.
Ragnar also changed, his form transforms into that of a black and red centaur, and his wings appear to be made of black sword blades while in each of his two hands, a great single-edged sword was held firmly, its size nearly as great as like mine, which unfortunately I don’t know how to define precisely.
Sakura once again takes the form of the Titan made almost entirely of wood, a female warrior clad in crystal and wood armor.
Orion had become a fountain of blood growing for a long time before he became an even bigger wolf than me, there were 3 pairs of wings and 10 tails of ethereal blood behind him, on his head there were 5 horns and his teeth were very big ones.
Nix assumed his Dragon form, different from his former Eastern Serpent-style Dragon form, this one was much more humanoid with his scales almost forming an Armor around his body, a crown forms on his head, 2 pairs of wings forming on its back and its arms and legs being the furthest parts from human on its body showing the brutality of a Dragon.
Layla was the least changed, her size being the smallest of all of us, but she had 5 pairs of wings, 4 arms with each holding a sword differently, an open eye on her forehead and a crown on her head, streams of 7 color energy forming energy rings around her while she maintains a disturbing smile.
This is the first time I’ve seen these forms of my Familiars, I couldn’t help but be amazed by their great transformations, their connections with me growing stronger as I feel their minds subconsciously touching mine.
At this time the Monster Waves were already close enough for two Auras to collide against me, but even without being able to use my Aura as usual, my Armor breaks any Aura that collides against it.
“Kill them all!” (I)
“Yes!!!” (all)

Pov Elizabeth:
His Familiars are worse than I thought, especially that Spectral freak, even I’m not sure what that’s supposed to be, there’s nothing I can compare it to to make any sense.
Everyone else is amazing too, but Orion looks the best, his whole existence revolves around the Blood, and he suits me a lot, if I had him sire an offspring I could make him my Familiar, it would increase my own power, one thing to do if you think about the future.
I look at the two of them, and I can see their wide eyes looking up, if their information is so shallow about my brother that they don’t know about his various Blessings, then seeing this Dragon form of his must be more than surprising.
“My Little Brother as everyone can see is a True Dragon, I don’t know if you managed to find out about it in your investigations, but some higher level True Dragons have a skill called “Awakening Ceremony”, the power of this skill can apply in many ways and its power varies greatly between individuals who can use it, right Zadiris?” (I)
“Yes… that individual difference doesn’t come from the individual’s power or race, it comes from something that defines him as being above, but that doesn’t matter as the one who is targeted by the Ceremony of Awakening needs to be compatible with the Dragon.” (Zadiris)
“I thought you already made it clear that compatibility would be important, you’re describing almost the same concepts as the Blessing.” (Astrid)
“Miss Vanessa, can you talk about your Father? Does he need someone compatible?” (I)
These two don’t know enough about Dragons to understand an explanation of the subject in more detail, they also don’t know what the Power of Authority is, and trying to explain it to them would be impossible, this is not the kind of power that one can acquire on their own and Outsiders like them wouldn’t be able to understand this without experiencing it for themselves.
For those reasons I just need to get them to understand the part about what they want, that’s the only part that matters to the two of them anyway and it’s going to be what I’m going to use to attract them.
“My Father may be someone special among Dragons, called as you heard before Primordial.” (Vanessa)
“Awakening ceremonies serve primarily to awaken an individual’s power, but the one in control can even bestow power in the form of a Dragon bloodline trait, abilities, or Elemental Affinity.” (Vanessa)
“But my Father can take much more than that, he can change someone’s race, touch their Souls and go far beyond what an ordinary Awakening Ceremony can go.” (Vanessa)
Vanessa is not wrong, even though True Dragons acquire Authority by becoming True Dragon Kings, their Authority is weak as a power inherited from their ancestors, only someone like a Dragon Emperor or an Elder Dragon has a true Authority of their own, but Zenos went further of that by obtaining an Authority long before he became a True Dragon or awakened as a Demigod, even if he had been sleeping inside him for a long time until he was strong enough to finally be used as it was meant to be.
With his current ability to possess Holy Power and having mastered his Authority to the level of being able to form a Blessing, he can reshape one’s body and Soul under the appropriate conditions.
“What I want to make clear by showing his strength as you can see above and talking about his ability using the Ceremony of Awakening is to make it clear that he will be his only option.” (I)
“What do you want?” (Astrid)
The wariness in his eyes was something I was expecting, it was all I wanted from the start as it shows his interest in continuing the discussions.
“What I want is quite simple… as well as what he can offer…” (I)
