Long ago, the Dragonkin had a theory about what would happen if the power of the Five Dragonflights were combined, and they named the monster Chromatus.
The dream came true; Chromatus appeared in Azeroth for the first time.
Because she absorbed too much Elemental Power, her size expanded rapidly, far exceeding that of Deathwing.
Deathwing showed fear; even ten thousand years ago, he had never felt such oppression when facing Archimonde.
The five heads of the Red Dragon Queen Kesutruisi spoke in unison, "Submit, Deathwing! Offer up your heads! After I absorb your power, I will have nine heads, just one step away from my ultimate form. Even the Titans will be no match for me."
The other three Dragon Kings had glazed eyes, clearly having been controlled by the Ancient Evil. Nozdormu, the Bronze Dragon Aspect, was the first to speak up.
"You are our father dragon, all glory belongs to you, and I am willing to give everything for the glorious future of the Dragons."
Malygos, with a refined and reverent expression, said:
"Individual life is insignificant; only the Father Dragon is eternal. Father, when I merge with you, though I die, I gain eternal life."
Ysera bowed her head deeply and said humbly:
"Father Dragon, I saw the truth deep within the Nightmare. This is the meaning of the Dragonkin's existence. Dragonkin are all ants, including our Dragon King. Our lives are meaningless. I am willing to sacrifice myself for you, Father Dragon."
The three Dragon Kings slowly approached the Red Dragon Queen, ready to Consecration and make sacrifices; a struggle flickered deep within their pupils.
Deathwing remained motionless, coldly observing everything.
Rhonin watched nervously, when suddenly, the Demon Soul in his hand emitted a surge of heat.
"Destroy the Demon Soul now!" Deathwing's voice was urgent.
Rhonin hurriedly took out the sword given to him by the Goblin Kreel, and the sharp blade sliced through the Demon Soul.
Nothing happened.
Rhonin felt he wasn't strong enough, so he placed the Demon Soul on a rock and swung his sword down hard.
Metal fragments flew everywhere, and the sharp blade shattered.
Deathwing in the sky looked on incredulously.
Rhonin was also stunned; the Demon Soul still couldn't be destroyed.
Vereesa hurriedly picked up the fragments and examined them closely, exclaiming in surprise, "This isn't the original sword; it's been switched!"
Rhonin pondered carefully: who had the opportunity to switch this sword?
Before setting off, Rhonin took a shower and changed into a clean set of clothes. His sword and old clothes were placed together and never left his sight.
"Unless"
Rhonin blushed, recalling the embarrassing incident.
Vereesa sensed something was amiss and grabbed Rhonin by the collar, demanding, "What have you done?"
Rhonin hurriedly replied, "It was just a female Orcs who was scrubbing my back. You have to believe me, nothing happened between us."
The female Orcs had delicate features and a voluptuous figure. She was considered ugly among Orcs, but by human standards of beauty, she was still quite attractive.
"You actually got seduced by a female Orcs?" Vereesa trembled with rage. "Orcs? It must have been Nekros."
In the air, the five-headed Red Dragon Queen laughed triumphantly:
"Neltharion, I saw through your plan long ago. You wanted to destroy the Demon Soul and use the power of the Dragon Aspects to Pain Suppression me, but you're destined to be disappointed."
Not far away, Nekros felt the gazes of Rhonin and Vereesa, and with a wry smile, he took out the exquisite sword from his pocket.
This sword is specially made so that it can destroy the Demon Soul during the most intense battles.
Deathwing sensed the surging power of the Dragon Aspects within the Demon Soul, but it was just a little short, and he shook his head in disappointment.
Just when she was in despair, Vereesa discovered a fragment that emitted a different kind of light.
Vereesa picked up the shards and handed them to Rhonin.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Rhonin approached the Demon Soul with the fragment in his hand.
He hesitated at first, unsure of how to use the fragment, and even less whether it would be effective.
Sharp shards sliced through it, cutting through the Demon Soul's hard surface like tofu. Rhonin was secretly surprised; this was far too easy.
"Careful!"
Vereesa quickly pulled Rhonin away, and the two rolled to the side.
A burst of intense light shot out from the crack, like a volcanic eruption, with dazzling colors that were breathtakingly beautiful, like a magnificent firework display.
A dazzling light swirled in the air. Deathwing hurriedly cast a spell, drawing upon this powerful force and constantly adjusting its direction, splitting it into five parts that flew towards the five Dragon Kings.
"Did it work?" Vereesa got up, panting, and looked up at the sky.
Upon receiving this powerful force, the five Dragon Kings trembled, unleashing a powerful aura.
Nozdormu, Malygos, and Ysera were no longer confused; they looked around in astonishment, as if waking from a dream.
The five-headed Red Dragon Queen struggled, seemingly bound, but unfortunately, the power of her five heads was too great, and she quickly broke free.
"Not bad, but it's all pointless."
The Red Dragon Queen smiled faintly from all five of her heads:
"Deathwing, your calculations were correct. By destroying the Demon Soul, the power of the Dragon Aspects within could Pain Suppression my personality. My soul, imprisoned within the Maw for years, was already extremely weak. Furthermore, it was split into five, allowing them to break free. But do you think you've won?"
Deathwing turned to the three Dragon Kings and said:
"The one standing before you is no longer Alexstrasza; she has long since merged with Ancient Evil. As long as we unite, we will surely be able to defeat her."
The three Dragon Kings hesitated, each deep in thought.
Deathwing roared angrily, "What are you still hesitating for? If we don't fight, all the Dragonkin will die!"
The Red Dragon Queen glared at Deathwing with a smile.
"Fool, you should have understood back when we fought Galakrond that the Dragonkin will never unite. If it weren't for my help, you would have been eaten long ago."
Then, the Red Dragon Queen looked at Ysera first.
"Ysera, do you think you can escape by hiding in the depths of the Nightmare? The Nightmare is formed from the leakage of the Maw's power; it is my home ground."
Deathwing shouted, "Lies! Don't believe them!"
Unfortunately, Deathwing's warning failed; Ysera trembled with fear, her dragon eyes filled with terror.
The Red Dragon Queen then looked at Malygos: "You think you control everything just because you've mastered the power of the Ley Line? You survived from ancient times; you should know that the Azure Dragon Clan are your nemesis."
Staring at the ferocious blue dragon head among the five heads, Malygos's wings trembled slightly in fear.
"Fool, I'll help you fight the Azure Dragonflight. You must pull yourself together, old friend," Deathwing advised hopelessly, but to no avail.
Finally, the Red Dragon Queen looked at Nozdormu.
"You have received the Power of Time from Aman'Thul, allowing you to travel through the river of history, but unfortunately you cannot find a clear future. Do you know why?"
Nozdormu looked puzzled; this had always been a mystery to him.
"Because of me, I am the only future of the Dragonkin. You are merely animals I raise to forge my perfect body. In the endless river of time, I will rule over everything."
"You are that one?" Nozdormu thought of a terrifying being, and his body trembled involuntarily.
"That's merely my skeleton; it doesn't represent my true power. Weak Dragon Kings, do you really intend to fight to the death in the face of absolute strength?"
