“Rizevim, what have you done to Marius Sama?”
“Stop it, Marius Sama, please stop!”
“Ahhhhhhhh!!!”
Screams and chewing sounds echoed as the Evil Dragon transformed by Marius devoured each vampire elder. His body expanded once again, and his aura grew even more powerful.
“HāHāHā…”
“Marius-Sama, look at yourself now, so beautiful and powerful!”
On top of a tall building, Rizevim laughed heartily as he witnessed the scene. However, at that moment—
“Rizevim, turning this fellow into such a ghastly state, your taste is truly disgusting.”
Tenraku’s voice, accompanied by Yubelluna and the others, floated in the air.
“Oh, it’s the Red Dragon Emperor. You’ve come at the right time, Marius has been wanting to meet you.” Rizevim grinned and taunted while the Evil Dragon, with Marius’s face on its forehead, twisted into a grotesque expression upon seeing Tenraku.
“Red… Dragon Emperor…”
“Roar!”
Although he had lost the memories of being a vampire, Marius could still utter “Red Dragon Emperor.” It seemed that Marius harbored considerable resentment towards Tenraku.
With a ferocious roar, the colossal Evil Dragon, now over a hundred meters in size, tried to swallow Tenraku and the girls in the air.
“Noisy!”
With a cold snort, Tenraku instantly activated the ability of Holy Sword Creation – Blade Blacksmith. A gigantic Golden Holy Sword of over a hundred meters long, shot down from the sky, piercing through the Evil Dragon’s back and pinning it to the ground.
“Hǒǒǒuuu!!!”
Filled with a fierce determination, the pinned Evil Dragon struggled to rise, but three more colossal swords descended, two impaling its wings and one blocking its massive jaws. The restrained Evil Dragon could only lie on the ground, unable to move.
“Even after being transformed like this, it’s still instakilled. Marius, you’re quite useless.”
Clicking his tongue, Rizevim wore an expression of disappointment towards Marius.
“Rizevim, is the Holy Grail that Valerie lost in your possession?” Tenraku had no intention of fooling around with this crazed individual and asked directly.
“As expected of the Red Dragon Emperor, to notice even this. Yes, the Holy Grail is in my hands.”
“You can cause chaos on the vampire side as much as you want, but hand over the Holy Grail to me!”
“Gā Gā Sha… Red Dragon Emperor, are you here for the Holy Grail? But sorry, I can’t give it to you now. It’s an essential item for my dream.”
“Dream? A madman like you also has dreams?” Hearing Rizevim talk about dreams, Tenraku couldn’t help but wear a strange expression.
“Indeed, I am a villain, but so what? Can’t villains have dreams too? Red Dragon Emperor, don’t look down on people, ah!!” Rizevim got angry and snorted at Tenraku.
Feeling a bit awkward, Tenraku thought that maybe even villains had the right to dreams. But before Tenraku could say anything, Rizevim sighed again.
“Actually, not long ago, I was living a fallen life, not knowing what to do, without any ambitions or dreams. Every day, I just sat on the couch, drinking red wine, daydreaming about irrelevant things.”
“Even though I was still alive, I felt no different from being dead. I was really tired of that kind of life! However, it was at that moment that Euclid brought me something interesting— it was information about the Holy Grail and proof of another world. In that instant, I suddenly had a dream, and my heart, for the first time, throbbed with excitement. For the first time, I felt that I had a reason and value to live!”
“Red Dragon Emperor, you probably don’t know yet, but this world is far broader than we imagine. Besides our world, there exist other worlds!”
“Just a few months ago, an unknown godhead descended upon our world and bestowed her blessings upon a human. This godhead doesn’t belong to any mythology of this world’s gods; it comes from gods of another world.”
“Although people have been discussing the possibility of otherworldly existence for a long time, the conclusion was finally confirmed then. It was a revolutionary event for researchers studying other worlds!”
Rizevim rambled on with an excited expression on his face.
“So, what’s next?” Tenraku yawned as he asked and he looked quite bored.
“What’s next? Red Dragon Emperor, I just told you such a shocking fact, and you’re not shocked at all, not even surprised?!!”
“Hmph, it’s just the existence of another world. I’ve known about it for a long time. The person bestowed with the blessings of gods from another world is Hyoudou Issei, right? He disappeared recently, so I guess he’s in your hands now.”
“As expected of the Red Dragon Emperor, you already knew, huh? That Little Oppai is indeed in my hands. He’s my most precious experimental specimen now. We’ve discovered many interesting things about him, including the fact that he was the previous host of the Boosted Gear.” Rizevim looked at Tenraku with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
“I did take the Boosted Gear from Hyoudou Issei. So what? Impressive, you used the gathered information to create some fake Sacred Gears. Can you even create genuine Longinus?!”
“Uh, Red Dragon Emperor, how do you know everything?”
Rizevim was a bit dumbfounded. Tenraku had just revealed everything they had done.
“I naturally know, and I can even guess your so-called dream.”
“Someone as boring as you wouldn’t have any noble ideals. You are probably just thinking of causing chaos in the other world, right? Overturning both this world and that world, killing all the annoying guys, becoming a big villain that everyone fears.”
“But if you want to go to the other world, you first need to defeat the guardian of the dimensional boundary, The Great Red. However, weaklings like you, even if there were a hundred of you, wouldn’t be a match for the Great Red. So, you must be thinking about how to get rid of the Great Red first.”
“There are only a few beings in this world that can stand against the Great Red. Ophis is one, but she has lost half her power, which you used to create Lilith. So, it’s impossible for her. The next is Dragon Eater Samael, but Samael is sealed deep in the Grecian Underworld. Even if you manage to steal it, Hades would throw a fit. Moreover, even if you get it, you won’t be able to control it due to Samael’s powerful curse.”
“So, after thinking it over, you only have one last option – the Sovereign Beast 666 – Trihexa, as recorded in the Holy Bible.”
“Sovereign Beast 666 – Trihexa is sealed at the end of the world by the God of the Holy Bible. You must have discovered its existence by infiltrating the principles of life with the Holy Grail, right?”
“So, your next move is to release the seal on 666, resurrect it with the Holy Grail, use 666’s power to defeat the Great Red, and then invade the other world with your Evil Dragon Legion and 666, causing widespread destruction, satisfying your empty and bored soul.”
“Rizevim, am I right?!!”
With a rapid-fire delivery, Tenraku’s final shout resounded like thunder, stunning Rizevim, who kept retreating in disbelief.
“Ahh… aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh…”
“Red Dragon Emperor, how could you… How do you know this so clearly?!”
Rizevim asked while looking as if he had seen a ghost. Tenraku had just laid out his plans and dreams in detail.
This is unscientific! This is absolutely unscientific!
With a disdainful snort, Tenraku tilted his head slightly, looking mysterious and profound.
Actually, he suddenly recalled some information from the original work and combined it with the current intelligence. Rizevim was just incessantly blabbering, and his frivolous and arrogant demeanor was irritating, so Tenraku couldn’t help but spill everything out.
The effect seemed pretty good. Seeing Rizevim’s shocked expression, Tenraku nodded silently. However, when he noticed Yubelluna and the others looking at him in amazement, Tenraku’s expression stiffened.
Uuhhh, did he overdo the act a bit?
