Velveric felt ridiculous as he fought the dragonman before him. He was pushed back no matter what kind of attack he performs.
All of his attacks would be swept away with a single punch or kick, performed by the dragonman.
And the dragonman wasn't even using his full power!
He was still in the humanoid form, so it showed the amount of leeway he held.
Velveric clenched his hand, and his body began transforming into the sun itself. He couldn't afford to hold back. Death was all that awaited him if not.
'What's most surprising is that — Zick actually joined the dragon clan! Taking such a risk...I see, he must want every one of us dead then.' Velveric's eyes flashed with a gleaming dim glow.
Zick targeted all the gods from the Igmorous world, that was more than enough to tell his intentions.
Zick was currently still attacking the gods with no rest, this showed his firm will to not let anyone live. Only a single god had been able to escape thus far, it was a god with light attributes.
This light god raced off to somewhere the moment Zick began transforming into a dragon. It was the best choice at that moment, allowing him to live.
Zick did not bother with this light god, he was not the main objective.
The sight where gods were turning into the miasma, coming in contact with Zick, passed by Velveric's eyes.
'Does he think his dragon slayer status can be hidden so easily? A supreme being would easily be able to tell his secrets!'
Core skill — Sun form!
As flame converged around Velveric, his new form became visible to the world. He had flame armor and his hair turned into a mane blazing like a sun. His handsome face was covered in red armor. And in his hand, there was a broadsword, shining dazzlingly.
"Don't look down on me!" Velveric swung the broad sword with all his might.
The broad sword made a perfect arc, creating a flame wheel. However, the dragonman who was hit with this attack did not panic.
CRACK~
"Not bad." The dragonman commented looking at the scales that appeared cracked all over his palm. Red scales had appeared around his arm out of nowhere.
Velveric clenched his hands and continued attacking ferociously.
'What is Uerek doing?' Velveric slightly split his attention, looking at his companion's condition.
Uerek was his and the death gods' last hope, they were aware that they can't defeat the three monsters before them.
"Huh?" Velveric's mouth lay agape, his sword came to a stop mid-way too.
What entered his sight was — Uerek who had his head missing. The being before his corpse was a beutiful Dragonoid woman, with golden hair. Her presence was not at all hidden this instant.
A peak great god!
It turned out the woman who fought with Uerek was the strongest.
"What did you think? We wouldn't be aware of your pitiful tricks? Struggling is pointless, accept your fate." Seeing that Zick had almost killed every god in the distance, the dragonman decided to get serious too.
The dragonman's body started getting covered in red scales. In a few seconds, he transformed into a half Dragon.
Both of them were great gods with the same elements. A kind of competitive feeling rose within Velveric, but he buried it instantly.
What's the point of fighting if there is no hope for surviving?!
'I have to get out of here somehow...The death god cannot help me either. I can only rely on myself right at this instant.'
Fire blazed within him, as he plunged his sword forward with all his might.
"Stupid pest." All Velveric got in return was a cold voice, filled with disdain.
Velveric's attack, which was fueled by all his power, was stopped dead in its tracks, with a single hand covered in red scale.
This caused his mind to go blank for a second. By the time he recovered, his vision was covered by a red fist. The moment this punch hit him, his body shot off soundlessly.
The armor on his face broke apart revealing his face. Golden blood flew out of his broken mouth.
The dragonman had not stopped, and breathed flames, which shot toward Velveric like a red streak.
Velveric was not able to dodge such an abrupt attack, getting swallowed immediately.
An explosion occurred, in a red-goldish color.
As the explosions' aftereffects vanished, Velveri's feature was revealed, he was barely clinging to his life.
The sun god, Velveric opened his eyes with deep indignation in them. There was no way he could escape!
'But...If I am going to die anyway, I would rather ruin that bastard's life along the way.' Velveric could feel that his life was slowly leaving his body.
Gathering the remaining of his power, He prepared to transmit Zick's secret to all the dragonman.
But before Velveric could send it, his body suddenly vanished with a purple glow. The next time he opened his eyes, what greeted him was Zick, in his human form, who had black miasma covering him.
A hand pierced through Velveric's chest, coming out from the back. The palm of this hand held a golden heart, from which pure gold blood leaked out.
"Rest in peace." Zick coldly said as the black miasma fully covered Velveric, destroying him with ease. He was already near death, so a simple push ended him.
'Collecting all this miasma with hard work went to waste, but I guess, it doesn't matter.' Zick looked at the three dragonman who flew to him.
The death god on the other hand was finished off swiftly too. He was given no chance to transmit at all, thanks to the dragonman's fast attack. Even if he was able to transmit, Zick was ready to interfere at any moment.
Zick thought calmly while looking at these dragonmans: 'Well If I could instruct them, I would have ordered them to kill all those three great gods instantly. Hmm, or no, I would have set them for an ambush instead.'
Zick showed a content expression to the dragonman who looked at them. The act of him killing Velveric was understandable by them, it was contributed to Zick's 'hatred' and 'anger'.
"Zick, there will be no enemy that will ever try to attack you again. That is the benefit of joining the dragon clan, we will always support you." The dragonwomen with golden hair said with an understanding tone.
The other two dragonman nodded their heads too, showing a reliable appearance.
Seeing Zick nod slowly, the dragonwomen continued.
"You should go to the galaxy under the dragon clan, and look up the exchange board, I am sure many things will interest you."
Zick bowed his head slightly: "Yes, madam Keirin."
The dragonman left after giving him advice.
Zick moved toward the dream world.
'Now, only Taweir is aware of my dragon slayer status. I don't think I will be able to take care of him, he will for sure have many ways to spread the news, as a last resort.'
Fortunately, the dream world was not affected by the fight just now. It was mostly due to all gods running away at the start. They had created a long distance between them, causing none of their attacks to affect this world in the slightest.
As Zick arrived at the base, Arianell, Aurel, and Yuriel greeted them.
"Are you ready?" Zick asked with a smile.
Nod-nod.
Seeing them all agreeing with serious faces, Zick's smile deepened.
There were tons of gods from the light faction, and they were all killed in the end too. In other words, all of their worlds were ownerless right at the moment!
Zick felt happy like never before.
'With the dragon clan backing, I can grow stably with not many obstacles. And after I finish looting this world, I will not be low on resources either!'
'I have tons of contribution points from the dragon clan too. I am sure I can exchange many things with this.'
Zick had sold off around 11 worlds after taking any rare thing from it.
It was, by all means, not a small contribution.
'Aren't things going too smoothly? I feel like most things are working out quite fine, unlike back in the past. Was I cursed or something in that world?' Zick felt doubt seeing everything going so smoothly. But he could not find anything out of place anywhere.
'Everyone moved for their benefits or were drawn by greed. No one is suspicious as far as I could see. However, this weird feeling isn't going away.'
This feeling came from his instinct, which he trusted a lot. So he kept it in his heart even if it made no sense.
Zick patted Arianell on her head and praised her for the assistance she provided him in the prior battle.
"Let's go to the god of fairness, Fiona's world first."
Though Zick was not aware of all the gods' world coordinates, he was able to find some through others' help. Dragon clan had provided some too.
In this battle, the dragon clan benefited a lot. The mid-grade worlds, ruled by the sun, death, and wormhole god, were all going to be taken over by them.
Zick kept his course clear from mid-grade worlds for multiple reasons too.
'I will still try to get my hands on at least a single mid-grade world core.'
