Chapter 503 - Chapter 503: Preparations Before the Final Battle

"Of course, the three people I mentioned are not absolute, but are judged based on the most likely situation."

"The Sword God, the Water God, and a Death God, these three people are likely to be enemies."

Orsted said in an affirmative tone. The corners of Roa's mouth twitched. One of them was his master, and the other was subdued by him and taken as a dog. He couldn't possibly go on a rampage and kill them both.

But it has to be said that Dragon God Orsted's guess was actually quite close to the answer, although none of them were apostles of the Human God.

The Water God, needless to say, was forced to work for the Human God because of Darius's kindness.

As for the Sword God, it was entirely due to one coincidence after another that he directly confronted the Dragon God.

Without thinking too much, in other timelines, these two must have died the most times at the hands of Dragon God Orsted.

That's how he guessed it, but Roa couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Why do you have such a guess?"

"Because the Water God and the Sword God died the most times in my hands, but the Death God is because I haven't encountered him that much."

"Actually, I think there might be Human God's pawns among the Five Dragon Generals. No matter which timeline, I will face them."

Hearing the first part, Roa had a feeling of "as expected," but hearing the latter part, a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Hmm, is that so?"

Although it felt a bit nonsensical, Roa nodded slightly in agreement, acknowledging this statement, seeing the other party's serious expression.

He sighed inwardly, feeling a little helpless.

But if he really followed the Dragon God's statement, his opinion wasn't very valuable.

The reason was simple: this guy had too many enemies. Everyone wanted to take a shot at him.

Although it was very likely that he would be killed by the Dragon God in one hit, after being killed, the other party would still remember the Dragon God and even develop a mental demon.

For example, Sword God Gal was the best proof.

When he was young, he didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and ran over to jump in front of the Dragon God.

After being blown away, his self-esteem was severely damaged. He worked hard and tirelessly, and in middle age, he raised the Sword God Style to the level of God, and then he kept thinking about the Dragon God, wanting to get back at him.

The Human God is using Gal's special characteristic to guide everyone to gather together and launch an attack on the Dragon God. Although the final result will likely be the same, and there won't be much change.

However, the Human God's hidden agents are very well concealed, which is one of the reasons for this situation.

The Dragon God has reincarnated so many times, yet he hasn't been able to find Geese, which proves this point.

Roa sighed, realizing that he ultimately has to rely on himself.

However, he already has a rough idea in his mind, narrowing down the individuals who need to temporarily disappear to a few people.

First, those with God-level power cannot appear.

Second, those who harbor malice towards him also cannot appear, with Reida being the most representative of this group.

The target is now very clear. He will have Gal stationed at his base of operations. He still has some trust in Gal.

Although this old man's intelligence is somewhat limited, his nature is pure. Roa believes that as long as he explains things clearly, Gal should be able to handle things properly.

Having made up his mind, he decided to carry out a major purge at the end.

He has never been one to be soft-hearted. Neither of them are benevolent people. The Dragon God, needless to say, only came to fight Roa because he knew Roa might be an apostle of the Human God. If Roa's strength wasn't extraordinary, anyone else would likely have been killed.

They exchanged information again, and after confirming everything was correct, Roa turned and left.

Finding the remaining Dragon General wasn't difficult. Roa searched a wide area and finally found the target five days later.

With a smooth series of attacks, Roa subdued the opponent, extracted the Dragon Treasure, and performed mental brainwashing.

After doing all of this, Roa stared at the four Dragon Treasures in his hand. He was only missing the last Dragon Treasure to complete the set.

The complete Dragon Treasure would definitely be able to open the World of Nothingness, but the incomplete one might also work.

The Dragon Treasure has been in his hands for some time, and he has figured out what it actually is.

The essence of this thing is actually energy, a vast amount of energy left behind by the First Dragon God. However, this energy cannot be absorbed or utilized. Its function is very simple: it can only be used to open that world.

Since it's energy, it can be replenished. Unlike a key, if a part is missing, it cannot fit the corresponding lock.

If possible, he plans to waste some of his magic power to directly replenish the missing part.

As for Laplace's seal, it should stay where it is.

Roa doesn't plan to break Laplace's seal, and the reason is simple.

No one knows what Laplace's current state of mind is. The Demon God Laplace caused a terrifying black wave on this continent. If the seal is broken and he finds Laplace in a berserk state, he will have a headache.

Of course, he could bring the Dragon God and directly confront Laplace. Even if Laplace is strong, he definitely can't beat both of them.

But the problem is, he has four out of five Dragon Treasures. Even missing one wouldn't matter much. He can completely replenish the missing part with his own magic power.

Completing all five would consume a lot of his magic power, but replenishing one part wouldn't be crippling.

If the magic power consumed to defeat Laplace is much greater, it's better to directly consume his own magic power and enter the World of Nothingness to start the final battle.

He will deal with Laplace after he resolves the matter of the World of Nothingness.

So, let's start preparing the closing remarks. It's time to put an end to all of this.

He looked into the distance, as if piercing through the thick sky and seeing a distant moment.

"The future?"

The young man murmured to himself, but his eyes regained their original firmness.

Everything is developing towards the result he wants. He doesn't have much sorrow or suffering. If this is a story, he hopes the ending will be good, without any bitter or vengeful plot.

He doesn't know why, but the closer he gets to the final battle, the more peaceful his heart becomes.

Without meeting up with the Dragon God, he came to the academy, passing through one classroom after another, watching the students concentrating and writing diligently.

Passing through the long corridor, stepping over the green stone-paved path, passing by the lush green trees, he unknowingly reached the end of the corridor.

Looking up, he saw the girl at the end of his line of sight, the girl with cherry-red hair, wearing a pink dress, scolding the people below the stage with dissatisfaction.

The cherry blossom-like braids swayed with the girl's movements. The light of the setting sun shone on the girl's delicate face. His eyes moved slightly. He didn't greet Mitsuri. At this moment, he just wanted to quietly watch the girl.

A gentle breeze blew through the girl's hair and across the boy's face.

After a long time, he shifted his gaze from the girl and walked towards another classroom.

He saw Roxy. This teacher's teaching methods weren't very good, but fortunately, her own foundation was very solid, which was more than enough to teach these students who hadn't even reached the advanced level.

However, because most of it was dry knowledge, the people below the stage were drowsy.

Roa's gaze swept over and saw Eris sitting in the last row, with her hands on the table, already asleep.

Roxy on the stage glanced at Eris, revealing a helpless expression.

Seeming to sense something, she looked out the window and met Roa's eyes. They both showed a knowing smile.

Being able to see such a smile from the girl occasionally seemed quite nice.

Daily, small joys gathered together gradually formed the source of daily happiness.

But now is not the time for flirting. Roxy just smiled at Roa and quickly focused her attention on the textbook in her hand.

Roa shrugged. He also had his own things to do.

Roa found the Demon Lord Badigadi. This time, he didn't even exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point: "It's time to fulfill your promise."

The former Fighting God naturally had no objections. He crossed his burly arms and looked down at Roa, who was a head shorter than him, and nodded slightly.

"So, tell me your wish."

He was quite imposing.

Roa looked directly into his eyes and said, "Can I ask you to die?"

Badigadi's expression froze upon hearing this, and then he frowned deeply.

If an ordinary person said this to him, he would laugh it off and not take it to heart.

After all, as the Demon Lord of Immortality, killing him is not an easy task.

But the person who said this was none other than the Sword God, who really had the ability to kill him, so he had to re-examine the weight of these words.

Badigadi didn't show any emotions like panic. He just frowned and asked with some confusion, "Although I'm not opposed to the idea of death, if possible, please tell me what made you want to kill me at this time?"

Roa didn't hide anything and said bluntly, "I'm preparing to attack the Human God. The keys have been collected, and it's time to act. To be on the safe side, I think it's better for you to die for a while."

However, Badigadi didn't buy this. He continued, "With my strength, I probably can't harm you, right? I don't have the Fighting God's Golden Armor, and I'm not the former Fighting God. What do I have that could threaten you?"

Roa's tone was faint as he said, "Don't forget, Roxy and Mitsuri are both in this academy."

Badigadi was stunned at first, but after a moment of shock, he became furious. His tone involuntarily became much heavier: "Are you saying that I might attack your family?"

"Heh, are you saying that the former Fighting God, the Demon Lord of Immortality Badigadi, would attack your wife and children?"

From his tone, it could be known that Badigadi was quite angry at this moment. Thinking about it, Badigadi, as the former Fighting God, naturally had his own pride. Roa's words were undoubtedly questioning his character, and it was completely understandable that he would be angry.

But Roa remained unmoved. He said expressionlessly, "What if the Human God asks you to do something similar?"

Badigadi said decisively, "If that's the case, I would refuse."

Roa still had no expression. Refusal is refusal. He didn't disbelieve the other party's character, but he knew that sometimes unintentional actions can have unintended consequences. Often, a small choice can lead the future to some unknown result.

In short, Roa was afraid that Badigadi would be deceived and do something detrimental to him.

Seeming to see Roa's distrust, Badigadi felt even more annoyed.

However, the next moment, Roa's light sentence silenced him.

"How did you die? Have you forgotten?"

Badigadi opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself.

Roa waved his hand and said again, "You've been with the Human God for quite some time, right? Although he has given you a lot of help, what was the result?"

"I'm not questioning your character, but if the Human God asks you to do something that seems very simple at some point, would you do it?"

"For example, bring a rat to the academy's cafeteria, and that rat is carrying some kind of virus. Would you do it without knowing?"

"Of course, this is just an example. The specific situation may not be a rat, but it could be many other things, like rabbits, puppies, or even someone."

Roa's tone was faint.

Badigadi didn't speak upon hearing this, but it could be seen that he also felt some distrust towards the Human God's character.

Everything Roa said was very likely to happen.

"So, what is your choice?" Roa waited for the other party's answer.

After a long silence, he opened his mouth with some difficulty: "If possible, I would like to see my wife one last time."

Badigadi's wife is the The Great Empress of the Demon Realm, but the current Demon Empress is in a young girl state and lives a very miserable life. It is said that as long as you treat her to a pile of food, you can gain the favor of the Demon Empress and get a chance to have her help you fulfill a wish for free.

Rudeus helped her by chance under the guidance of the Human God (that is, by treating her to a meal), thereby obtaining the Foresight Eye, which can see the opponent's movements by consuming magic power.

The Demon Empress died violently due to Laplace's self-destruction, and now the two have been resurrected and are walking in this world together.
