The death of the Dragon Monarch awakened the most terrifying life on this land. The Amber Flame Dragon circling in the sky made the whole world seem smaller. The human slaves even suppressed their breathing, for fear of disturbing the Dragon Monarch in the sky and suffering the scorching flames.

But even with humanity's caution, they could not change the Dragons ' tyranny. The dragons frantically searched the sky for the killers of the Dragons, and from time to time they would descend from the sky, their massive bodies crushing human houses, their thunderous roars questioning humanity.

Unable to answer the Dragon Monarch's questions, the enslaved Dragons grew even more enraged. Destructive dragon breath swept across the vast land, destroying all food and houses. Amidst the sea of fire and Ash, the surviving humans stared blankly around, having even forgotten their sorrow.

"Damn Dragon Chosen!"

"Human beings should be enslaved!"

The roar of Dragons echoed across the sky and the earth. In this springtime world, the Dragons ' flames plunged the entire world into an apocalyptic scene. Towering wildfires and endless Ash filled the air as the massive bodies of the Dragons soared through this despairing landscape, wielding their power with unrestrained abandon.

Ryan was trying to find a way to kill another Dragon Monarch, but it was difficult to find an opportunity. The Dragons were powerful not only because of their strength, but also because they could fly in the vast sky despite their enormous bodies.

A crossbow bolt capable of piercing Dragon Scale is not a firearm for locating enemies. With its extraordinary life force, the Dragon Monarch can avoid human-made weapons of mass destruction as long as it is vigilant enough.

However, if one uses supernatural abilities and cannot resolve the battle in a short time, one will be in a very unfavorable situation.

Daryl is not powerful enough; he can fight one or two Dragon Monarch, but at that time there are five Dragon Monarch soaring in the sky.

" Drummond went the North?"

"Yes, sir, according to Mr. Sven's answer, it has gone to find the Dragon Chosen."

Behind Ryan, the cloaked Catfolk assassin Apia answered.

One Dragon Monarch has gone to hunt down the Dragon Chosen, while five Dragon Monarch are searching for Ryan's army, violently destroying any trace of civilization in this world.

"Go and get them ready; we can't count on the Dragon Chosen."

Ryan made up his mind. No matter how fast the Dragon Chosen grew, these human slaves couldn't wait that long. If too many died, it would be a loss of his, Lord Ryan's, wealth.

The cavalrymen galloped across the land once more, their roar echoing like the howl of Dragons in the sky. The knights of the Stag Legion boldly challenged the Dragon Monarch.

"Damn humans!"

The Amber Flame Dragon descended from the sky, and the knights pulled on the reins to separate and surround the Dragons. Only a few of them were able to inflict any damage on the Dragons with their longswords.

These injuries enraged the Dragons even more, causing it to stretch its neck and unleash a sweeping breath.

A massive metal shield blocked the dragon's breath, and the Crystal Python roared as it lunged at the Dragons, attempting to coil it around the ground.

The Dragons struggled, and it would soon break free from the strangulation of the Crystal Python. Daryl arrived at that moment, and the Kingdom Guardian Knight, wielding Frostmourne, leaped down from the sky. His magnificent Knight Combat Technique tore a gaping maw open on the Dragon Monarch's neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The Dragons's claws lashed out in that instant, throwing dozens of knights and their horses off their feet. Then it wrestled with Daryl. In the distance, arrows from the giant crossbow flew in once more. The Dragon Monarch could not dodge them, but he turned around to avoid having his heart pierced.

The Crystal Python let out a mournful howl as fine cracks appeared on its body. In a moment, it shattered into countless crystal fragments, then transformed back into a shadow and roamed the earth, casting a cold gaze at the Dragons. Suddenly, it would burst out of the shadow and bite the Dragons. So far, it seemed that this Shadow Python was inflicting the most damage on the Dragons.

However, without the strangulation of the Crystal Python, the Dragons took to the air again. Once airborne, there would be few things that could harm it.

Daryl followed, Rose was also trying to restrict the Dragons's flight path. This time, the dragon's breath that was falling from the sky could not be stopped. Several giant crossbows hidden in the Forest in the distance were destroyed, until Daryl and Rose began to suppress the power of the Dragon Monarch.

But from the distant sky, the terrifying might of Dragon's Might has already arrived. The Dragons that have been rampaging through the city have sensed the fluctuations here, and they are approaching.

Ryan held the forbidden spell, waiting for a lucky passerby. The five-headed Dragon Monarch, if manipulated properly, could kill at least two of them. Grand Mage Macken's description of the Mages Brenna made Ryan have no doubt about the power of this forbidden spell.

For the next three dragons, if the time comes, Ryan can invite Commander Farrell to join the dragon-slaying expedition. At worst, he'll expose some things, which will only deepen their relationship.

Above the city, the Dragons roared, its desire to destroy the land beneath its feet suddenly interrupted by the aura of battle from afar.

It raised its head and stood on the ruins, while the human slaves at its feet looked on in confusion, wondering why the Dragon Monarch had stopped roaring.

They dared not look up, but the Dragons had already taken to the air. The next moment, a huge fireball appeared in the sky and crashed down on the city like a meteorite.

It's over...

The moment everyone saw the fireball, they were all filled with a numb despair. This fireball could absolutely destroy the entire city, and none of them, these human slaves, would survive.

boom!!!

Amidst the deafening roar of the explosion, plumes of smoke and Ash filled the air, leaving a massive crater in the ground. The charred trails that spread testified to the terrifying destructive force that had just been unleashed, yet the city was ultimately spared.

From the deep, sunken pit, a warrior clad in armor and wielding Dragon Fang Sword emerged. A faint glow emanated from the area around his heart, a powerful, Dragons- like heartbeat that resonated with everyone.

" The Dragon Chosen, it's Lord Dragon Chosen!"

"Thank goodness, it's the Dragon Chosen! We've survived!"

Amidst the numb enslavement of humans, there were still quite a few people with loud voices. Fuan listened to their calls, his expression softened. He swung his longsword at the Dragons in the sky, and the Dragon Monarch involuntarily plummeted to the ground.

It was somewhat puzzled, but some unseen force influenced its wisdom, preventing it from thinking about why it should give up its advantage in the sky and land on the ground to fight the Dragon Chosen.

Before becoming Dragon Monarch, the Dragon Chosen are in human form. Their weapons and armor are used to fight Dragons, but that is not enough. There are many reasons why the Dragon Chosen are able to kill Dragon Monarch, including not only their weapons and armor, but also the will of Great Being.

Faced with the Dragon Chosen, no Dragon Monarch can fly; they can only walk on the ground, using the terrifying power of their massive bodies and their dragon breath to fight against the Dragon Chosen.

This gives the Dragon Chosen a slim chance to kill the Dragon Monarch.

Yes, even if the Dragon Monarch are weakened by the rules, they can still overwhelm the attributes of the Dragon Chosen, but Fuan is not among them.

He acquired his current power too quickly. Unlike the previous Dragon Chosen, only about three months have passed, and Fuan has already possessed Legendary power. He did not follow the path of other Dragon Chosen because the great being directly bestowed upon him peak strength.

This gives Fuan a greater opportunity than previous Dragon Chosen.

Holding the Dragon Fang Sword, Fuan charged forward, his feet stomping on the ground as he ran. With each step, fine sand followed by some invisible current swirled around him. After running a hundred steps, a Dragons dragon made of sand condensed behind Fuan.

" The Thornflower's Desperation!"

A vibrant Bauhinia bloomed atop the head of the sand Dragons. Some had said its petals resembled dragon teeth, and now, just like those sharp dragon teeth, this flower pierced through the Dragon Monarch's body.

" The Dragon Crushing Mountain!"

Fuan roared and forcefully pressed down the longsword that was piercing the Dragon Monarch's body. In that instant, the hard Dragon Scale and flesh were torn apart, exposing the bright red, pulsating Dragons heart.

Beneath Fuan's armor, the heart, devoid of flesh and blood, beat as if it were the heart of Dragons, Dragons's heart before him confirming this suspicion.

His heart was like that of Dragons, and the heart of Dragons was also like the flesh and blood organ that he, a human, possessed.

Fuan didn't think too much, nor did he have time. The terrified Dragon Monarch was already panicked, gathering a terrifying breath in his mouth.

It was about to unleash its intense power, leaving Fuan with no choice but to activate his third combat technique.

" Ashen Annihilation— "

Flames formed a vortex in the sky, and at the center of that vortex, an extreme beam of light, like the Sun, descended from the sky, enveloping the Dragon Monarch and Fuan.

The longsword finally pierced the Dragon Monarch's heart. The intense energy did not affect Fuan, but after the pillar of light dissipated, the Dragon Monarch was left with only a charred corpse.

"I did it..."

"I did it!!!"

Fuan roared loudly, laughing maniacally. He had finally done it; he had killed the Dragon Monarch.

"I am the Dragon Chosen!!!"

He roared, his voice unconsciously taking on a powerful majesty, resounding throughout the city like the Dragon's Might.

The human slaves remained kneeling on the ground, looking at the Dragon Chosen with awe. Legend had it that the Dragon Chosen would slay the evil Dragon Monarch, and now they had finally witnessed it.

Looking into the distance, Fuan sensed the terrifying aura of battle and immediately left the city to head towards that direction.

By the time Fuan arrived at the battlefield, the war was already drawing to a close. As Daryl became more and more accustomed to his current power, the Dragon Monarch's advantage gradually disappeared.

Fuan's arrival accelerated the battle. The Dragon Monarch instinctively fell to the ground, completely unaware that it could fly. Fuan rushed over and pierced the Dragon Monarch's heart with his longsword.

Watching the Dragon Monarch die, Fuan calmly removed his armor, wanting to see the surprised expressions on Ryan and the others' faces, but he didn't expect them to be even more nervous than before.

Ryan held the scroll, looking at Fuan, who had suddenly become Legendary. This didn't make sense, did it?

Perhaps that makes sense; the power of Great Being cannot be explained by reason.

"What a coincidence, Your Excellency the Dragon Chosen."

Ryan spoke, testing how much human spirituality this Dragon Chosen still retained.

"You look disheveled."

Fuan pointed to the Stag Legion knights who were lying on the ground and struggling to get up, and said with some pride.

It actually looks quite human.

"By the way, how did you become so powerful, Dragon Chosen One? I remember you didn't have such terrifying power before."

Ryan pointed at the corpses on the ground. He didn't care about stealing kills; what he was curious about was how the Dragon Chosen had transformed from a seemingly normal person into Legendary in such a short time.

Compared to cunning, the Natives and nobles of this world are several versions behind.

"With the guidance of an elder, I went to the the North Snow Mountain in the world to receive baptism."

Fuan was very pleased with himself. Compared to before, after suddenly gaining power, Fuan was bursting with confidence.

"Oh, by the way, you don't know about the information on that sword you had before, do you? That elder also told me that it tells a story."

Fuan roughly recounted what the blind old man had said, but Fuan didn't recall anything else the old man had said.

He said it to show off to Ryan.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly, deciding whether to trust Fuan or the Legendary Mage of the empire. Without hesitation, he chose the latter.

So why did he deceive the Dragon Chosen?

The answer is not hard to guess: if the Dragon Chosen knew that they would become the Dragon Monarch they killed, they would probably collapse and it would bring unnecessary trouble.

"Where is that elder? He knows so many secrets; it seems he has a deep connection with the Dragon Chosen."

"Of course, he is the guide of the Dragon Chosen, helping Dragon Chosen to become powerful in their fight against the Dragon Monarch."

Fuan raised his head, a faint spark escaping his lips beneath a smug smile.

He told Ryan the name of Blue Butterfly City. Ryan glanced at Apia in the distance, who silently disappeared.

"There are still several Dragon Monarch left in this world. Does Your Excellency, the Dragon Chosen, have any good ideas?"

Upon hearing this, Fuan straightened his back.

"I will kill them!"

"I am the Dragon Chosen, and I will surely defeat the evil Dragon Monarch."

He did not ask Ryan for help; there was only one noble Dragon Chosen in this world, and that was him, Fuan.

"In that case, I congratulate His Dragon Chosen on his triumphant return."

Fuan left triumphantly, while Ryan remained motionless for a long time. Only after failing to come up with a solution did he look at the extraordinary beings around him.

"Do you think he will turn into Dragons?"

Ryan was still somewhat hesitant. Fuan had been behaving too much like a human until now. Apart from possessing strength no less than that of Dragon Monarch, he remained exactly the same. Ryan could even clearly sense the inflated ego of someone who had once been ignored and was suddenly the focus of the world's attention.

"Didn't you plant Magic Potion in him? If he really turns into Dragons, then just kill him."

Rose began to speak, saying that Ryan had previously spent a great deal of money to buy a magic Magic Potion from the Magic Academy that, on the surface, concealed an aura but actually contained the ability to activate magic, precisely to prevent the Dragon Chosen from turning into tyrannical Dragons.

Ryan sighed, seemingly having no other choice.

The Stag Legion did not return to the Frozen Earth Territory, but remained assembled in the Wilds. The war between the Dragon Chosen and the Dragon Monarch had begun, and regardless of the final outcome, Ryan was determined to deliver the decisive blow and conquer this Otherworldly Plane.

In Odin City, Sven was extremely anxious.

Because the Dragon Monarch Drummond has returned.

"Your Majesty, you have finally returned. The Dragon Chosen has killed the Dragon Monarch Xibo and is now fighting His Your Majesty Gobel. If he defeats His Your Majesty Gobel, he will soon appear in Odin City."

"Do you want me to help him?"

Drummond stared intently at Sven, trying to discern his inner thoughts.

This is an ability that only Dragons possess, and clearly, Drummond does not.

"No, Your Majesty, I wish to ask you to remain in Odin City and fight the Dragon Chosen here. I will lead the people of Odin City to help you achieve final victory."

"Very well, my servant, your loyalty has earned my approval."

Drummond laughed, and his exhaled dragon breath swept over Sven like a heat wave.

"This land can only have one Dragons master, and that is me— Drummond."

" Dragon Chosen shall die at my feet!"

Drummond refers not only to Fuan, the Dragon Chosen, but also to all the Dragon Monarch.

"Let him come. I will kill him with my own hands and show him who the true Dragon Chosen is."

Drummond disappeared, leaving Sven extremely nervous.

Fortunately, they left the Dragons in Odin City. If it had left, wouldn't all the preparations they had made in Odin City during this time have been wasted?

Just as Sven had said, he mobilized the entire population of Odin City to participate in the war against the Dragons.

Fuan did not disappoint. Even Ryan was surprised that this Dragon Chosen was able to kill the three Dragon Monarch. After all, those Dragon Monarch were his predecessors and Dragon Chosen had won before.

Fuan's success led Ryan to focus his attention on Odin City.

The Dragon Monarch Drummond is said to be the most powerful Dragons, and his reign is the longest in all records.

Odin City, the Dragon Chosen, Fuan, arrived as scheduled.

However, compared to when he met Ryan, the Dragon Chosen was much more majestic at this moment, and his eyes made the three followers behind him feel uncomfortable.

" Odin City is just ahead."

Milly said that she came from here.

Fuan raised his head, looked at the tall city surrounding the mountain peak in the distance, and nodded with a somewhat indifferent gaze.

He no longer possessed the swollen feeling that Ryan could sense; instead, he exuded an inexplicable majesty. The hollow in his chest, where his heart was directly visible, was gone; his flesh and blood were sealed off, like Amber, nurturing a terrifying flame.

"I will become the sole king of mankind, Dragon Monarch Drummond, your challenger has arrived."
