Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 236: In the North Land pt1

Velgrynd faced Velzado and examined her beautiful body shape.

His entire body gave off a pure white light, his scales had a depth that exceeded pearls. It was like a precious stone that captivated everyone who saw it.

Velzado 'Ice Dragon' in his unmistakable form as the strongest dragon.

However, now, his blue diamond eyes that were usually filled with kindness, had turned into fury, blaring like a ferocious sea, and they were shining with a red light.

Velgrynd looked at those eyes and immediately began to wonder.

–Why does her sister Velzado identify Velda as the same person as their older brother 'Star King Dragon' Veldanava? –

Velzado had a strong mental strength that was at least the same as Velgrynd, it was very difficult to think that he could be under the control of others.

More than anything, Velzado's specialty was his defense against such various attacks.

Moreover, Velzado had the Patience of King Gabriel's Greatest Skill. '

This was a major special defensive ability created through the iron will of Velzado.

Due to his already high original abilities, there was no doubt that Velzado was the most advanced in terms of defense.

And the one that most points to this fact, is Velzado's unshakable wish.

No one can move it. His heart was strong enough to give birth to King Gabriel's patience. '

This meant that he had cold observer eyes that could not be lied to and a completely unshakable spirit.

It was unthinkable that this Velzado would have thought of his own brother.

It was true that Velda had Veldanava memories.

However, Velgrynd did not see this as proof that their brother and Velda were the same.

Was it just because Velzado saw things differently? But the problem is–

During Velgrynd's many years of life, he rarely saw Velzado succumb to his emotions.

But now-but

He had forgotten himself with anger, had been angered by jealousy …

His current self was too different from the Velzado he used to see.

Velgrynd could not help but feel troubled by it.

After all, there was something strange about what he said to Rudra.

Velzado had spat, 'human, after all,' which seemed to have no feelings, considering it was aimed at an old friend.

Yes, as if all his emotions had been sucked dry and replaced with negative ones like anger and jealousy–

(In the end, I can't imagine an alternative explanation for him being under someone's control.)

Velgrynd.

If this is the case, then it is necessary to follow up on the declaration and wake it up.

But Velgrynd knew more than anyone, that this would not be easy to achieve.

Indeed, Velgrynd was able to fight Velzado on equal footing.

But it was really only within the confines of the brother quarrel.

If they were to fight with serious intent to kill, then Velgrynd would be 100% inferior to Velzado.

He has the most energy following Veldanava, and the best defensive ability. It was Velzado.

Even if Velgrynd specialized to conduct attacks, he would not be able to get past Velzado's defenses.

Similarly, Velzado's attack power could not deliver a deadly blow to Velgrynd.

This is why they are considered equal to those around them, but in reality, things are a little different.

Velgrynd released Burning Breath, which was a simultaneous attack, but was scattered by the Diamond Dust that Velzado had blown, causing a huge ring of fire to bloom in the air.

Of course, the Velzado Freezing Breath itself was evaporated by Cardinal Rain caused by Velgrynd falling around them.

However, neither side was damaged, after the attack would have a huge impact on this isolated ice world.

And while the fight seems to be balanced at first, bit by bit the balance starts to fall …

It's weird . Velgrynd was the one who noticed it.

Normally, if this kind of all-out battle were to occur, Velgrynd would easily lose due to the difference in maximum energy.

This might go unnoticed if they did not use their full strength, but there was a clear difference in the amount of energy being drained.

–Nothing.

If this had happened before, Velgrynd would have slowly lost strength due to the difference in speed when it came to recovering energy.

But his favorite ability, the 'Ultimate Rity King' Ultimate Skill was now using his energy in a more efficient way that he was unable to before.

React to Velgrynd's will and answer him without the slightest delay.

"Fufu, you've improved, Velgrynd. ”

“I still have a way to go, sister. ”

Velzado sounded a little surprised, but Velgrynd replied lightly.

Velgrynd really has spare energy.

He could only think of one possible reason for this.

Aye .

It could only be the work of that suspicious slime. Veldora's evil friend, Rimuru.

Velgrynd's strongest attack, 'Cardinal Acceleration' had no effect on him, he had even evolved into a 'true dragon' like them. The most abnormal creature.

He easily surpassed Velgrynd. He is an absolute person who should not exist.

Even if he carried the dragon gene, Velgrynd would not accept a suspicious-looking person like his sister.

But on the other hand, he listened to Velgrynd's request and freed Rudra. He owes her.

And more than anything, it was that slime that allowed him to manifest himself, and hence he vowed to cooperate with her.

So there's no reason to doubt.

The only thing holding back Velgrynd now, was his troubled heart.

Who killed Rudra?

Who is this Velda?

Nothing is important.

What matters is that she doesn't like Velda. That's it .

He had stolen the name of his beloved brother, deceived and then controlled his only sister.

He could never forgive someone like that.

After all, they were free beings, anyone who tried to bind them would be considered their enemy.

At least Demon King Rimuru would not try to bind Velgrynd.

As long as he remained trustworthy, Velgrynd would not renege on his promise with Demon Lord Rimuru.

Velgrynd had thought that it was impossible for him to win due to the difference in energy.

But that was a mistake.

By being devoured by Demon Lord Rimuru, Velgrynd had been reborn into something much stronger than before.

“I will soon put an end to your suffering, sister. ”

"Don't fool yourself, Velgrynd. I'm pretty busy. I think it's time I finish this little game we've played. ”

Their sight is locked.

And then both sides released powerful energies as the fight moved into an even fiercer world.

◇◇◇

Guy and Chloe continue to fight only with the sword.

None of them are serious.

But it was still a high-level fight that they had maintained so that others would not notice it.

Guy is more amused by the showdown of the dragon brothers who play above them.

So he immediately noticed it.

An angel of light came to visit from above.

"Is that…"

Guy muttered softly.

But everything is too late.

Guy could confirm it when the angel laughed.

"Hey! You guys, this– ”

Before Guy's warning could reach them, a ball-shaped barrier had appeared on the northern ground.

And what then resonated was the voice of a beautiful woman.

"Regalia Dominion !!"

Guy could see everything in an instant.

In this region, everyone except him would definitely be affected by that ability right now.

But rarely, Guy's understanding of the situation was wrong.

◇◇◇

Lucia laughed loudly.

Everything happened according to Velda's expectations.

It is as if saying that this moment was created through careful planning and repeatedly changing plans as the situation changed.

Even the fact that they are unable to control Chloe well, turns out to be in their favor.

Because it now meant that the body of this powerful Hero was now owned by Lucia, the right-handed woman of Velda.

And they'll soon reach two 'dragon's, too.

They would use the Angel-type Ultimate Skill as a medium and establish full control.

It was one of the hidden skills in King Michael's Supreme Justice Skill. '

In this Northern Land, the strongest beings would have a confrontation at the peak.

Velgrynd will definitely appear, as someone who is worried about his older sister, Velzado.

This was what Velda predicted.

For some reason, 'Elepathy' did not reach Velgrynd, but it should have been impossible for him to resist, if they used their abilities directly.

Velda was able to plan this through his extensive knowledge of the principles behind abilities.

They intend to stop Guy from going any further, and put Velzado and Velgrynd completely under their control.

And the Hero who woke up, Chloe O'Bell.

People might think of him as the strongest Hero, but he was still an ordinary human.

At this point, they were useless to him. He was a ngawur creature that could be easily discarded.

–However, if he does have the Highest Skill of 'The Hope of the Sariel King,' then that changes things a little.

In the present, whether Chloe lives or dies is just a small matter.

But viewed as a body to incarnate, there can't be a better choice than Chloe.

Strong, beautiful.

While he was in the human realm, he had attained the status of a god.

Clearly, this was a body worthy of Lucia's in this world.

Unlike the corpse that Velda had given him, the corpse was special for war.

And what made it possible was the new ability Velda gave him— The 'Multiple Existence. '

Lucia's ability is not suitable for 'Multiple Existence' where energy needs to be shared and used. After all, Lucia's flesh existed as a clear vessel for her main body.

This was not because Lucia was inferior, it was just that Rimuru was a rare creature that could create clones freely.

Even Veldora and Velgrynd had their bodies created through the power of Rimuru.

But as long as Lucia could not clone her body freely, this precious gift that was 'Various Existence' was wasted.

However, if he could prepare a new ship, then all he needed to do was project his consciousness into it.

Lucia's body will only be used to give orders. It could remain next to Velda where it could not be damaged.

And she would only transfer her consciousness and energy as her spirit, into Chloe's material body through 'Multiple Existences. '

The fact that Chloe was here in this situation, was proof of Velda's prediction.

She had been badly burned by Chloe before, when she had not completely given up on Yuuki's controlling ability. And Lucia did not even notice that Chloe had reached the Hope of the Ultimate Skill, King Sariel. '

Chloe was not the type to let her off guard, and she had hidden this ability until it was suppressed to the limit of her ability. Something that really pissed Lucia off.

He already had unique skills, 'Absolute Severance' and 'Infinite Prison. “Chloe is too strong for someone who is just a human being.

But now, in the face of Velzado's merciless attack, he had no choice but to use this ability that he had hidden.

The result was a lucky revelation that he had, equipped with angel-type abilities.

Originally, this was supposed to be a plan to kill Guy.

Chloe's just gonna be dealt with along the way.

Guy is not someone to be taken lightly, and their prospects will be bad even if Velzado and Chloe take him along.

And if they happen to lose, they'll risk making Guy stronger.

So it will be necessary for them to achieve absolute victory to stop this.

It will be a three-way fight that will follow. That was the order given to Velzado.

They will move as soon as Velgrynd arrives. There will be a space-type magic circle to prevent escape and strengthen the Regalia Dominion.

And this plan works beautifully, with controls that have just been completed.

With the bonus of being able to control the Hero, Chloe.

No matter how powerful Guy was, he would definitely not be able to win when facing the dragon brothers at once.

Meanwhile, Lucia will take Chloe's body and deliver the final blow to Guy.

Lucia had yet to achieve her incarnation, but now was the perfect time for her to do so.

The plan had been modified and transformed into something much more perfect.

◇◇◇

The 'dragon's sisters who had now returned to their human form were now in what was once a hall.

Velgrynd had returned to this form after seeing that Velzado had already done so.

Velzado's gaze first led to Guy and Chloe–

No– it passes through them and towards the beautiful angel who descends from heaven.

It must have been a person whose voice was beautiful and echoed sounding after they were covered by a barrier.

It was an absolute command language enforcement. The curse, or perhaps it should be called the 'True Word,'

And the angel came down to the earth and opened his mouth.

"Remember this, I'm Lord Velda's right-hand woman, Lucia. The Archangel of the End. '

He introduced himself solemnly, the power that emanated.

Velzado heard those words and thanked him respectfully.

Velgrynd was uncomfortable with this.

But what he didn't understand, was that even though he felt that way, he obeyed it as well.

"I know it! You are! Those words were to force the control of anyone with angel-type abilities, right? ”

"Fu. Most impressive, Guy Crimson. No wonder Lord Velda is so careful of you. However, knowing this now will be of little use to you now. The only thing you can do is die peacefully. ”

"Shut up! You sound so arrogant because it looks like an insect! ”

Guy shouted as he attacked, his sword swinging.

However, his sword was easily intercepted by the barrier conjured by Lucia in front of him.

Lucia looked at Guy and smiled mockingly. Then he walked towards Chloe.

After hearing Guy's words, Velgrynd could understand.

What just happened to him.

And also, what happened to her sister.

(I will not forgive him. I will never forgive you, Velda!!)

Velgrynd was burning with emotions of anger and humiliation so intense that he started to get dizzy.

And at the same time, he thought.

If things continued like this, everything would be in line with Velda's expectations.

Velgrynd could not refuse the order, and Velzado was completely under their control.

Although Guy was cunning and possessed incredible strength, he had no hope of winning against Velzado and Velgrynd at the same time.

Lucia seemed confident of her victory, as she completely ignored Guy's attacks as if daring to do the worst.

And he's walking towards Chloe.

“Chloe O'Bell. Accept me ”

He said those words, and then the spirit of 'Double Existence' left Lucia and was sucked into Chloe's body.

"Curtain!"

Guy seems to be panicking because now he's starting to attack Chloe, but it's too late.

Lucia had used her ability to create a barrier in front of Chloe.

This meant that Lucia had managed to fully merge with him and possess his body.

Guy has understood this and has shown signs of impatience for the first time.

Lucia knew she was winning now, and a smile appeared on her face.

Now that she had finished transferring the shards of her energy and regained consciousness to Chloe's body, she teleported back to heaven.

Confident in the certainty of victory.

The power of the Hero and Lucia.

Just now, a truly perfect being had been born.

Velgrynd could feel waves of despair spreading around them.

But then a voice echoed in the room.

“Cou — Hahhahaha! I have arrived!"

It was a light heart sound that shattered the current atmosphere.

It was a voice so hopeful that it could dispel all their despair.

From whom did this mysterious laughter come !?
