Chapter 434: [ The Dragon, the Angel, and the Bird… ]

“Although you merge with the fell, I don’t think you will allow repeating the history of Master Dante and Virgil to also happen between you and master.” Lime muttered as she stared at ‘Allen’ with a faint smile. “… right, master…?”

“… You’re quite confident aren’t you?” ‘Allen’ sneered. “Who says I don’t want it? In that way, I can prove that I am the real King compared to that idiot!”

“Of course, I am confident! Because you are my beloved master as well…” Lime’s voice was impervious to desires and passions. It was so calm that ‘Allen’ was taken aback.

“… …” ‘Allen’ stared directly at Lime’s eyes as if looking for any lies within it. However, he was disappointed. Because Lime’s eyes were very clear, as though the eyes of a newborn child with no impurity in them; of which he had never seen from other people.

Then, after a few minutes of staring at each other; “… Pffftt, Ahahahahahaha,” ‘Allen’ laughed loudly as he sat in his frozen throne.

“Fine, fine… you got me… but only this time, you hear me.”

“… …” Lime smiled sweetly. She had already expected this… no matter what happens, or what will become of them, Allen is still Allen… her beloved master…!!

As if seeing through Lime’s thoughts, ‘Allen’ sighed unwillingly, with a wry smile he said; “But bear in mind, I won’t be doing this because of that idiot… but for my little slime. Who told me to love you so much, huh… you bastard slime!!”

“He he, master is a tsundere…”

“Don’t call me that, you idiot! Respect your master!”

“Aha ha ha ha,” Lime’s crisp as silver bell-like laughter was particularly refreshing in the silent space.

Hearing Lime’s crisp like silver bells- laughter and looking at her brightly smiling face, ‘Allen’s mood also got a lot better. Even his ice-cold heart somewhat soften as he listened to this.

Among all Allen’s tamed beasts, Lime has a very special position within Allen and ‘his’ heart. Even if he had become extremely evil, he would never hurt or even make Lime disappointed in him.

He was not like Virgil whose very existence was the dark emotions within Solomon, he was Allen, through and through—just infected by an evil curse that let his negative emotions rampant. However, the good within him didn’t disappear… it’s just restrained.

Thus, no matter what Lime wanted, ‘Allen’ was like a doting father that would indulge whatever it was. No matter how impossible or painful it was –if it was for her, the two Allen was prepared to do it at all cost!

‘Allen’ and Lime immediately brought Allen’s unconscious soul body towards the Firebird to initiate Lime’s plan. From now on, the chances of this succeeding depend on Allen’s luck and willpower…

*** ***

Allen’s mind was drifting dreamily.

He just felt as if he was embraced by a warm feeling. Like the sensation of returning from a womb, he felt cold sometimes and yet hot sometimes.

Time ticked by in silence.

He doesn’t know how much time had passed by.

He just felt his head was light –headed. He doesn’t even know whether he was already dead or alive.

There was no feeling, no hunger, no sentiment, no lovesickness, nothing.

He doesn’t feel anything…

What am I doing…?

He doesn’t know. However, as he was drowning in this kind of nothingness, suddenly, from out of nowhere… he was suddenly assaulted by an incredible amount of pain!

Hot!

Cold!

All of them alternated in crashing into his body as if he was being grilled and then froze all over again.

Pain!

Excruciating pain!

A pain that can make any people, turned crazy in an instant!

How long had it been when he had experienced this amount of pain…?

Even the usual pain he had suffered during fights was not painful as this…

Just what is going on?

Every nerve in his body burned, giving him a feeling as if he was dissolving into thin air. Being in this kind of state, what made Allen feel better was that, no matter how much he opened his mouth, there was no voice leaking out… in fact, was he even controlling his body now? Or he had lost control a long time ago?

As the pain intensified, the terrifyingly high temperature still continued to seep into Allen’s body, seemingly attacking the mana pathway inside his body intentionally.

Although due to his Dragon and Monster King physique, he was extremely confident that his mana path was extremely sturdy, probably sturdier than a steel wall… and yet, why is it that he felt as if whenever thus heat pass through his mana path, it was bringing a destructive force that was slowly wilting them away…?

Allen never felt much danger that he was right now. He was certain that if this goes on, he would become a cripple in using mana in the future!

The worst is that mana path is not from the physical body but from the soul body! Even if he resurrected or rebirth, if his mana path was damage, they would never revert back properly!!

This is bad! This is certainly bad!!

But what can he do? He can’t even move or take action!

He can only endure and wait for fate…!

Under the grilling from these high temperatures, the originally spacious and tough Mana Paths had been twisted like scarred skin, giving them an extremely strange and terrifying appearance.

Naturally, the pain that was created from his Mana Paths being grilled and then frozen and then grilled again, until they were completely twisted, directly resulted in Allen’s body repeatedly convulsing. However, he couldn’t let out a single cry—he really didn’t know whether to treat this as a fortune or misfortune!

He felt like he was being tortured to death!

Allen gritted his teeth and thought that he was really going to die.

However, he had a very strong parting regret, so he was not resigned to die like this, he still had many things he had to accomplish!

As he was losing all hope, suddenly an unresigned roar echoed within his mind.

ROOOOOOAAAARRRR!!!

This was the roar of a dragon; Allen had heard it distinctly!

Because of this angry voice that seemed to be really furious, Allen who was about to die had regained some consciousness. At this moment he could sluggishly feel that all the dragon blood within his body, had actually converged to a single place as if undergoing a suction process.

AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!

Then, as Allen was confused as to what was happening, another voice appeared, ringing in his mind. It was a beautiful voice but just like that Dragon roar from before, it also contained endless fury.

What is happening…?

In the next moment, Allen felt as if he was being pulled into somewhere else and before he knew it, Allen felt himself floating in the air. However, he didn’t have the time to wonder what was happening because, just in front of him, a very incredible, awe-inspiring was happening!

He was suspended in the air and beneath was endless water as if he was in the middle of the ocean.

However, beneath the ocean was a massive creature –a Dragon!

A massive Dragon with glistening and beautiful black scales with a blue hue.

On its back was several sharp looking spikes lining neatly on its spine. These spikes were emitting golden arcs of lightning from time to time as it swims on the sea, unrestrained and free.

Obviously, Allen could recognize this Dragon and due to that he was shocked to the core!

This Dragon –or should it say, the Lagiacrus was none other than his Dragon form. Although, unlike him who was just like a baby Lagiacrus when transforming and this was a real adult Lagiacrus, even still, how could Allen not recognize his own incarnation…?

He would be an idiot if he couldn’t!!

But the problem wasn’t that one alone… the thing is, the Lagiacrus was extremely angry to the point that its red eyes seemed to be burning in hate and fury. However, probably due to Allen’s incorporeal existence, it seemed like it didn’t notice at all.

Still, it was roaring towards the sky, as if calling someone or scolding something.

Allen followed its gaze and saw that in the sky filled with dark clouds, a white golden suddenly pierced through, parting the clouds.

Not waiting for Allen to create some assumptions, something descended.

This time, Allen’s eyes once again revealed an expression of disbelief...

Because what came down was extremely familiar to him.

A demon extremely identical to him. Horns, black markings, tail, skin color, a beautiful pair of black angelic wings and even the black steel shackles on his wrists and ankles were very identical to his…

However, the only difference was that this guy’s hair was black in color and it was long, almost reaching his waist. Thus, if seen from afar, he looked more like a girl than boy…

What is this…?

His Dragon Incarnation and now… his Angel of Death Incarnation….

What is this place…?

Roooaaar!! Rooooaaaarrr!! Roooaaaarrr!!

Seeing the Angel of Death, the Dragon started roaring angrily. The water around it started creating violent whirlpools!

As for the Angel of Death, it merely frowned and then a spear of light appeared from his hands.

Allen felt a headache. Are they going to fight? Is that the reason why he was feeling a painful torture just now?

But why now all of a sudden?!

He had always been okay up until now. Even after possessing two Physiques, he had never encountered any kind of problem. But this…

As Allen was having a headache and was wracking his brain on how to stop them. Suddenly, the scene in front of him once again developed an astonishing way.

Contrary to his expectation, the two incarnations weren’t fighting at all, instead, all of their weapons were pointed at a single direction.

When Allen turned to look, he saw a massive bird.

Damn it!! Did it chase him till here?! Allen’s face instantly paled at the familiar figure before him.
