Volume 4 Chapter 225
by Need_More_SleepVolume 4 + Chapter 225: Elizabeth And Cynthia
On Cynthia’s palm, the spatial rift was expanding in an orderly manner.
“…Spatial Mastery?”
This sight made Elizabeth pause in surprise.
Space-related magic was not unheard of in this world.
However, casting spatial magic required extremely demanding conditions. For example, the most widely known teleportation magic required extensive incantation time, the destination needed a massive teleportation magic array, activating the magic required extremely rare magic gems, and the casting process absolutely could not be interrupted…
This series of requirements ultimately pointed to two words: stability.
Spatial magic must strive to prevent spatial turbulence. The slightest interference could disrupt the fragile spell’s stability, dragging the caster into terrifying spatial turbulence and tearing their body apart.
Even High-Race Kings possessing divine rights could not avoid this.
Yet, Elizabeth clearly saw Cynthia manipulating the spatial rift in an orderly manner—no magical incantation, no consumption of rare gems, and no preparation of a teleportation array.
“Teleport.” Cynthia said softly.
The spatial rift in her palm suddenly expanded, like the maw of a beast, swallowing both her and Elizabeth.
“Mm…!” Elizabeth felt the world turn upside down in an instant. Her spatial sense was shattered, she couldn’t distinguish directions at all. The surrounding scenery flew past, too fast to be clear.
This sensation was unmistakably spatial teleportation.
Thud.
She didn’t know how much time had passed. Elizabeth fell onto the ground.
She raised her head and saw a world of pure white snow. The air was intensely cold, each exhalation produced white mist.
This was an endless snowy plain?!
The blood elf girl stood up in surprise, looking around. She could no longer sense the Blood Prison Slaughter Array. Having been removed from the magic array, the nearly limitless blood energy provided by her citizens was also severed.
“Elizabeth, this is the Far North of the Dragon Kingdom.”
Cynthia stood amidst the wind and snow, explaining to Elizabeth.
“Fighting here, we won’t be disturbed by anyone. All external factors you deliberately created earlier will be excluded. It ensures absolute fairness, for both you and me.”
The Far North of the Dragon Kingdom?
Just imagining the distance from the agreed neutral zone to this snowy plain—it was practically crossing the entire continent!
Even the world’s most powerful spatial traversal magic couldn’t achieve that.
“This is impossible! You’re lying!” Elizabeth denied it. “To traverse such a vast distance relying solely on your will… that’s no longer spatial magic!!”
Cynthia smiled slightly. “What a coincidence, Elizabeth. My Dragon Divine Right just happens to involve this precise domain, allowing me to go to any space I have set foot in.”
“…”
“If you don’t believe me, I can let you experience it again. Is there anywhere you’d like to go?”
“You… you actually hid your strength…!”
Elizabeth was furious.
“Why didn’t you use it at all in the previous battles? You could have used the Dragon Divine Right to teleport me into your kingdom! By setting up advantageous battle conditions, you could have easily killed me! Just like the means I used!”
“…Because that wasn’t the outcome I wanted, Elizabeth. I needed your genuine willingness,” Cynthia said. “I told you, I want to end this age of chaos, which requires the acknowledgment of every High-Race King. Only by changing the minds of all High-Race Kings can this goal be achieved. Simple slaughter won’t work.”
“You…”
Elizabeth trembled with rage.
To possess such a terrifying divine right, yet this naive fool was genuinely only thinking about realizing her naive dream?
If she had such a divine right, she would never do such a thing!
“Cynthia, I will not accept your proposal!!”
The Vampire Ancestor raised her hand, activating her divine halo. A tsunami-like blood sea flooded the snowy plain.
“Divine Right of Blood: Unseal!”
Cynthia also released her true dragon form, transforming into a silver dragon soaring into the sky.
“Come, Elizabeth.”
…
…
Fourteen days later.
The air was filled with falling ash. The sky looked as if scorched by raging flames, dyed crimson.
This was no longer a snowy plain. In the unprecedented battle between the Silver Dragon Queen and the Vampire Ancestor, the snow had all melted.
“Mmm…”
Elizabeth lay on the ground. Having fought until this moment, her blood pool capacity had run dry.
She raised her head unwillingly and saw the person still standing right beside her.
“The battle is over, Elizabeth.”
The battle-scarred Cynthia stood before her.
“Dammit… you damn fool…!”
Elizabeth began to cry with bitter frustration.
She had lost. In this battle, she had lost to the person she despised most.
“Kill me!”
“…No.” Cynthia shook her head.
“What do you mean?”
“Fighting you was only to change your mind, to make you acknowledge me.”
Cynthia smiled and, at the same time, reached out her hand to Elizabeth, as if extending an invitation.
“Come, join me in changing this world, Elizabeth.”
“You…”
“I need you.”
“…”
Elizabeth fell silent, gazing intently at the silver dragon girl before her.
Unknowingly, her own thoughts had quietly begun to change.
Had she actually been… enjoying the feeling of fighting Cynthia?
A thought emerged from the depths of her heart to act on impulse, perhaps, wasn’t such a bad thing.
The corners of the vampire girl’s mouth also curved upward slightly. She grabbed the hand Cynthia offered.
However, she didn’t use it to stand up. Instead, she pulled Cynthia down and embraced her.
“Elizabeth?” Cynthia seemed slightly surprised.
“What’s wrong? I’m just a little hungry,” Elizabeth said. “Don’t you know vampires must satisfy their bloodsucking impulses?”
“This is…?”
“Alright, I admit you won. According to the agreement in the letter, I consent to your request. I’ll cooperate with you to realize your dream.”
“Wonderful!”
“Since I’m helping you like this, asking for a little reward isn’t too much, is it?”
Elizabeth smiled at Cynthia, raising a hand to gently touch the silver dragon girl’s face.
“Cynthia, since you’ve decided to cooperate with me, from now on, you’ll have to get used to my personality, you know~”
