Guild Wars

Clove, who had just returned from the Mystic Realm, had a look of wariness and shock on her face. She had seen horrors beyond her comprehension that forced her to use her abilities and waste her precious Origin Energy to survive those 3 minutes.

After all, the banishment skill didn’t send the target to a fixed location, but to a place that was relevant to their actual ability. So, Clove was sent to a part of the Mystic Realm equivalent to the True God Rank, filled with multiple divine-level beings of the mystic element. She was the only outlier and had no clue about their power system.

The fact that she could come back intact had to do with the Origin Energy she precisely possessed, as well as her special spatial abilities. Before returning, she had been in the midst of escaping an eldritch horror that could even scare Batman into tears, so when she warped back, she was still tense.

Suddenly, she saw Draco’s face inches from hers as the fellow grinned wolfishly.

"Boo!"

Clove’s heart leapt into her throat as she hurriedly activated her abilities to escape, but she screamed as Draco punched her in the gut with the full force of his power, his fist glowing with the red energy of his Demon Branch, which greatly enhanced his strength.

"Blergh!" Clove vomited everything in her stomach, saliva leaking from her mouth as she clutched her gut with an ugly expression before falling to her knees in pain.

Draco stood over her casually and smoothed his hair. He turned to his avatar and spoke casually, "Buddy, take this one to the Divine Realm and let my darling Rosella consume her. Her special spatial abilities would do well for my daughter."

The avatar nodded and grabbed Clove roughly by her ears, opening a portal through space and walking into the Divine Realm. Draco sighed, feeling that Clove was the most useful for Rosella, who had never used her Ultima Sunt side since there had never been a good enough candidate.

Even Draco himself had only ever consumed one person, and that was Norma. He only did that because Norma disliked and disapproved of him as her inheritor since he was unwilling to sit down and practice Refinement honestly at the time.

Ever since then, he understood that the Ultima Sunt power was something on par with Refinement, a self-developed power by the AI that could change the entire rules of reality if it became a real thing.

However, his plans to utilize it fell through when he unlocked 100% bloodline power after the birth of Lucitera, as the bloodline tree contained almost every power one could imagine as long as he unlocked it.

Meanwhile, what he didn’t have, his two other babes likely had. If not, Misery, Kiran, Gage, Luke, and the other future inheritors would likely have it. The Ultima Sunt had limited slots for consumption, so if a power was going to be added, it had to be carefully chosen.

Draco glanced at the chicken that was Byron, still clucking and pecking the ground while radiating its Super Saiyan-like aura. Draco picked it up and glanced into its stupid eyes, where Byron’s mind was likely suppressed, roaring to be freed at that moment.

Immediately, he activated his devouring power and sucked away the remaining energy within Byron, trying to condense it into a crystal, but his bloodline couldn’t manage that ability at its current potency. As such, he could only frown and hold onto it for a later attack, which he planned for his next battle.

The farce had come to an end, and it was time to proceed with the important objectives. Draco held the token he had taken from Gregario’s corpse and smiled as he began to ascend Mount Conquest step by step.

Its stone steps were neat and systematic, with equal height and width at each level, for the almost 10-kilometer-high climb. Each step Draco took seemed slow in the eyes of onlookers, but with each blink of an eye, he had ascended hundreds of steps at once.

Before one could even wonder if their eyes had gone bad, Draco had reached the summit, standing before the small Greco-Roman-like temple building where everything had started. After his ten-year seclusion with his family, had he taken literally any other path but to come here, he would not have initiated the events that led to this moment.

However, had he not done so, he would have continued to wander without knowing that the Origin Gods, who he thought were all busy stabilizing the universe, were actually split into factions—two of which wanted him dead and one that wanted to squeeze him dry until he was a husk like Makar or Byron.

To Draco, that knowledge was more precious than anything, especially regarding the biggest flaw he faced. As stated multiple times, two timelines of knowledge did not cover anything about the Origin Gods. His first encounter with them was in Four Point Valley, from Vadoma’s mouth.

He had never seen them fight, witnessed their power, or experienced their abilities until the recent battle. The most he had done was use a few Origin Crystals and view a few Origin Rank items here and there.

He, Eva, and Shuangtian had been deceived by their invincibility in the Eternal World, even able to kill Eternals head-on. If Draco had followed his original plan to forcibly Rank Up to Rank 6 and acquire a Draconic Source Origin of the Origin Rank, making him a Semi-Origin being and then ascending to the plane where the Origin Gods resided, he shuddered to think of the consequences.

In the Void Nexus, he could run with his tail between his legs because the Western Fantasy realm was his home. Even if the Origin Gods had no intention of preventing Cruelty and co. from entering the realm, Draco still had plenty of means to fight them off within the realm thanks to his foundation.

If not, he could simply log out and then pierce into the digital world with his real body using the spatial passage he filched from Sengo Muramasa, where he would be able to use his full bloodline power without any qualms. At that time, those fellows would kneel and call him daddy!

But God, if he dared to ascend into the Core Plane as a Semi-Origin God without knowing anything, his best fate would be to be captured and locked up by the Origin Gods along with Eva, Shuangtian, and his whole family. The worst fate would be to be killed and have the Refinement legacy forcibly extracted from him and given to someone else.

Thinking this, Draco’s eyes flashed with coldness as he raised his palm forward. A ball of Destruction formed at the tip of his raised hand, growing in size until it surpassed the height of an entire dinner table while having the width of a pillow.

Draco pushed it forward gently, sending it toward the temple before him. It exploded as it released its destructive power wantonly. The temple was not defenseless, manifesting some sort of divine barrier that protected it for a few seconds, but it was wiped away by the destruction power that came from Draco’s bloodline.

The dust cleared, revealing the mountaintop, which had been clean-shaven, as if someone had used a very sharp, giant scissor to snip it off, creating a plateau at its peak. The hole in the void above flashed deeply, becoming unstable as the link between the Origin Gods of the War Maniac Pavilion and the Western Fantasy realm was precisely this temple.

However, the event maintained the teleporter because there was one more being present that forcibly stabilized the teleporter using their presence.

"Vile vermin, how dare you?!" a deeply masculine voice roared as Draco casually dodged a stab from behind.

He turned to see a fully armored man in stylish red armor, his eyes from within his visor radiating a blue light that scrutinized Draco angrily. Draco smiled and glanced at the long spear in the fellow’s hand, which radiated a slight danger to him as it was a rarity in the realm.

｢Name: Frederick – True God

Level: Law of Red War (Supreme)

Divine Energy: 100%/100%.｣

A Supreme Law True God was a significant challenge for anyone, especially since this fellow had a genuine Pseudo-Origin Rank Source Origin. This meant that while he could not produce Origin Energy naturally, he could convert lower energy upwards while also storing Origin Energy within for as long as he wanted.

This was a step below Semi-Origin Gods but also a step above the refurbished 1000th squad that Draco had just vanquished. After all, who knew how much Origin Energy Frederick had on his person? He could have a wisp like those clowns from before, or he could hold an entire sea.

"Vile vermin, end your life and experience true death at this moment, lest you bring calamity upon all your loved ones. You don’t know the depth of my power and ability," Frederick stated coldly, his voice booming across the plateau.

Draco held his dual swords and flourished them casually, a thoughtful smile on his face. "Man, if I fight you, it would be the battle of the ages that would likely shatter seas and cause the entire main plane to tremble at its very foundation. You are likely the strongest being I have ever encountered within this realm under the Origin Gods."

"Hmph! If you know this, then you know what to do!" Frederick retorted without any semblance of respect for his opponent.

"Hahaha, of course, of course. I just want to know, War God Frederick. Were you born a god, or did you start as a mortal?" Draco laughed in response, seemingly not caring about the rudeness.

Frederick frowned and felt a hint of danger. "That is not your purview, vermin! Surrender now, or—WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

The fellow was initially speaking casually, but his face became locked in fear and horror as Draco’s eyes flashed with a dark black color, a hole in space-time being torn in the air between where Frederick stood and where Draco stood.

The other side of the portal showed a scene of this exact location, only the temple was still under construction by many hardworking mortals, with a handsome golden-haired young man instructing them with a look of arrogance. When the golden-haired young man saw the hole in space-time, he felt a great chill in his heart as the black light from Draco’s eyes charged towards him.
