If anyone else heard Anos say sothing like that, they would probably laugh it off as pure fantasy.
That was why he had no intention of telling anyone else for now. Before the hard reality, every argunt was powerless.
No one was going to unite against a force that did not even exist yet.
When Ophis asked her question, Anos shook his head.
Even Ophis and Great Red together would not be enough, because even the enemy's top subordinates stood on the sa level as those two.
And the true highest tier of the EXE evil gods was undeniably one full step above the Infinite Dragon God and the Red Dragon God Emperor.
"I see, so beings like that really do exist."
Ophis nodded thoughtfully, never once doubting the truth of what Anos had said.
"When that ti cos, even the Devil Kings will probably be nothing more than slightly better cannon fodder."
Anos smiled faintly and looked into the distance.
Evil God class, far beyond Dragon God level. Evil God lvazoa, Ogre God Regalzeva, Demon God Sera Serbeth.
Above Dragon God class, Rahu Seven Luminaries, First Seat.
Dragon God class. Great Red, Ophis at full strength, Ketu Amatsu, Heavenly King Lugatim, Sea King Durumado.
Dragon God or near Dragon God class. 666, present Ophis, Lilith, Ophis's split form.
Those were the beings who would truly decide the outco of that war. By then, even transcendents would only qualify as minor field commanders.
...
"Co to think of it, I still have a silver chest I never opened."
Anos rembered it at once.
It had co from Ais.
After he acted like a truly shaless man, the condition for opening Ais's silver chest had finally been fulfilled.
Anos had stepped into the gap in Ais's heart and made himself the one who filled both her soul and her body.
That fulfilled the condition for opening the silver chest.
Beco Ais's emotional pillar.
Of course, afterward, he had also told Ais that Aria's case was not completely hopeless, and that he did have a thod to bring her back, though it would take preparation.
He had not told Ais that he could definitely revive Aria. He had only given her hope.
That way, when Aria truly returned, Ais's feelings for him would naturally deepen even further.
Anos had done sothing undeniably cruel.
And yet he did not feel the slightest guilt about it.
After all, who besides him could have helped Ais avenge her past and bring Aria back?
Just like how he solved Koneko's problem and beca the emotional pillar of her heart, once he had brought an end to Ais's life as an avenger, was it not only natural for him to beco Ais's emotional anchor too?
Ding!
[Silver treasure chest opened.]
[Congratulations: Reward obtained:- Heart of the Stars.]
[Heart of the Stars. An ultra-rare evolution item for Savior Star Dragon. It seems to gather the radiance of the stars and the dawn of salvation itself, an item capable of specializing Savior Star Dragon's power to its absolute limit and pushing it through another stage of evolution.]
"Hm? This is not a Yu-Gi-Oh card, It feels more like I sohow wandered into Digimon, No, I guess calling it Pokémon would not be wrong either."
Anos looked at the Heart of the Stars in his hand, his expression turning a little strange.
Still, as his own strength kept rising, there would inevitably co a day when Savior Star Dragon could no longer keep up.
Back when he was planning his battle against Apollo, he had even considered using Savior Star Dragon's effect to seal Apollo's abilities.
But while Stardust Dragon's power was fine for everyday situations, against truly high-end opponents, it had no choice but to step aside.
Apollo had been a transcendent. Savior Star Dragon in its current state simply was not enough to seal him.
But now, maybe it could be.
"The power of dragons... I really do seem to have so strange affinity with dragon-kind."
Anos let out a quiet sigh.
After the remnant soul of the evil dragon incident, he had obtained the World Dragon's Jewel.
Then Ddraig, Ophis, Stardust Dragon, Savior Star Dragon, the One-Eyed Black Dragon, and one dragon after another had followed.
And now his next target was another dragon as well.
Tiamat, the Dragon King of Chaos.
When Anos spoke of gathering strength, what he really ant was gathering the strength of dragons.
Except when facing Dragon Eaters, dragons were overwhelmingly powerful in almost every situation.
"I could take her in as either a foot soldier or a maid."
Yes, that was his perfectly innocent thought.
Because if one of the saintesses from his church ended up doing the sort of work a maid was ant to do, the whole thing would feel strange.
Maybe Liliruca had spoiled him too much with her service as a little maid, because now he genuinely felt uncomfortable without a maid by his side.
As for how to make Dragon King Tiamat into a maid.
Anos had never worried about that.
Dragons always bowed to the strong.
Tiamat's temperant and natural behavior were obviously not suited for maid work, but that only made the process more fun.
There was real joy in training one from scratch.
Anos was very interested in the art of maid developnt.
"Ophis, do you want to co with ?"
Anos asked her.
He was only going there to subdue a Dragon King. He had no intention of borrowing Ophis's power for sothing on that level, so he was really only asking out of courtesy.
"No... I want to visit another world, Call if you need ."
Ophis answered softly.
"All right, I'll send you there."
Anos casually sent Ophis off to the Strike the Blood world. He did not know why, but compared to the Aka ga Kill world, Ophis seed to like that one much more.
Familiar Forest.
According to Anos's judgnt, Tiamat should be in Familiar Forest.
"Well then, Ti to put the theory of turning a Dragon King into a maid into practice."
The corner of Anos's lips curled upward.
To be fair, Dark Magician Girl Mana had also tried maid work once, only to discover that she was completely unsuited for it. In the end, she was much better off doing magic research.
It did not take long for Anos to find Tiamat.
She was asleep.
Sleeping very, very soundly.
"So sleeping all day really is a dragon trait, huh?"
Anos recalled that Ddraig and Fafnir also loved sleeping.
Part of that was because he usually shut off their senses most of the ti, but even so, dragons really did spend the vast majority of their existence asleep. At best, if they woke up, two of them might chat or fight for a while.
"Hey... Wake up."
With very obvious ill intent, Anos released the aura of the World Dragon's Jewel.
Instantly.
Tiamat woke from her sleep as she had just been marked for death.
"What is this? What is coming?"
Tiamat felt as if a Dragon Eater had locked onto her. Every scale on her body seed to crawl with alarm.
"Hey there, you're finally awake."
Anos greeted her very politely.
If the World Dragon's Jewel had not been visible on his wrist, Tiamat might really have mistaken him for so random human who wandered into the place by accident.
But Anos had already made the World Dragon's Jewel visible.
Even if Tiamat had been blind, she would still have known that the terrifying pressure crushing down on her was coming from the thing in his hand.
"Who are you?"
Tiamat beat her massive wings and imdiately widened the distance between them.
A violent gale swept through Familiar Forest, throwing the entire place into chaos.
"Tiamat, I'm here to invite you."
Anos smiled pleasantly.
The World Dragon's Jewel in his hand released a silver glow.
When that light faded, Tiamat finally saw what was contained inside that silver sphere.
"Ddraig And also... Fafnir, who was cut to pieces and should have been dead."
As the only female Dragon King, Tiamat naturally knew the handful of Heavenly Dragons and evil dragons that existed in the world.
"Well, well, if it isn't Tiamat, seeing you still alive is enough to bring tears to my eyes. Hahaha."
Ddraig laughed loudly.
He understood at once. Maybe they were about to gain another companion.
One Fafnir was definitely not enough for him to enjoy fighting. Another Dragon King with a physical body was just about enough to keep things interesting.
Of course, if they could drag Albion over too, that would really be perfect.
"Tiamat, who exactly are you calling dead? So what if my soul got chopped up? You can put it back together."
Fafnir replied in irritation, which was his own way of saying hello.
"You can put it back together, yes, but... why are you two together?"
Tiamat still kept a great distance from Anos. Even though she had only just woken up, her mind was perfectly clear.
"Because of ."
Anos answered with a smile.
If not for him, Fafnir's soul would still be lying around in little fragnts, and Ddraig would not be enjoying the luxury of having soone to fight for fun.
"I knew it."
Tiamat's expression turned knowing.
Since Ddraig and Fafnir had already been subdued, then this boy's reason for coming here could not have been more obvious.
"You've co for , then. Tar of dragons."
Tiamat already understood that she had beco prey. At this rate, tomorrow she might end up sealed inside that silver sphere too.
Could that thing really be so artifact left behind by the God of the Bible? Its power was simply too absurd.
"Don't worry. I'm not putting you in there. Your job is to serve ."
The mont Anos saw how fixated she was on the World Dragon's Jewel, he understood exactly what she was thinking.
He had really co here to collect a maid.
When there was work, the maid would handle it.
When there was no work...
Ahem.
What could be better than that?
