Chapter 1066: The Fall Of A Dragon
Pov Stella (Spirit Queen of Illusion):
I was facing the entrance to Nix's Dungeon, this Dragon's head looks a lot like Arash, at least it has many of his characteristics minus the overly aggressive part of him.
"I didn't expect you to stay here." (I)
"I can say the same for you, but I know our tasks are the same." (Lorraine)
"Why do you keep Fairy Layla under surveillance?" (I)
"She's not the one I'm watching." (Lorraine)
I look at Lorraine, she's been my friend forever and she's also been friends with the previous Stella for millennia.
"I'm more interested in Zenos, the Fae is already someone I can understand, she's a lot like my mother with the only problem being her immaturity, nothing a few centuries of experience can't fix." (Lorraine)
"But your contractor is a big problem in many ways." (Lorraine)
I can understand her, all the Spirits know about the Faerie Goddess finding a Champion, but I must be one of the few who knows who that Champion really is.
"He's not just a mortal, he's also someone involved with many Gods, all this not to mention his identity as a Demigod at least until now..." (Lorraine)
"The Contract between them is not something normal, and the very existence of Zenos can be considered more important to Layla than my mother." (Lorraine)
"That can't be changed considering what Zenos has done for her." (I)
"I just want to watch him more and see if he has a chance of becoming an enemy one day." (Lorraine)
"..." (I)
I cannot go against this thought, this is also a concern that I have even if to a lesser extent.
As a Vampire and one day becoming a full Demigod, Zenos is basically immortal in a way far beyond normal Vampires, he's also very young, even though he's an Outsider he's not even 100 years old counting his previous life from what Arash told me.
Knowing what he will be like in a thousand or a hundred thousand years is something we cannot predict, the younger someone can be the easier it is for him to change, while those like us who have lived for so long do not change easily.
"You think too much, until this moment he has only demonstrated how important those around him are to him, the kind of change you fear will not happen." (I)
No matter how much a person changes over time, they never stray too far from the character they develop during their youth, their worldview may change, but not their personality.
"You must do your part, the Gray Elves are already on the move, leave things here as they are." (I)
"You might be right..." (Lorraine)
I so wanted to laugh at the deplorable state he was in as I rushed towards him to grab his Soul with my own hands, but this is not the time to get carried away with emotion yet.
"This fight is already over before it even starts" (Rhaegal)
"< May I be the Herald of Light >" (Rhaegal)
"< Daylight Deity >" (Rhaegal)
When he started talking his body returned to its normal size of 1600 meters, then Baldr's symbol on his chest glows in golden light while his horns break off forming a large ring of golden energy on his back.
I saw all my energy being blasted out of Rhaegal's body as his wounds were rapidly healing as his lost limbs grew back.
All the holes and cracks in the space around us were rapidly closing as the space around us becomes a blue sky with a golden sun, that sun being behind Rhaegal in the center of the ring on her back.
Her Aura grew more than (5) taking everything as she pressed me, her victorious smile plastered on her smug face, I couldn't help but smile so wide it felt like splitting my head.
"Now you are mine to kill as you wish" (Rhaegal)
"< Territory: Divine Realm >" (I)
"< Abyss Divine Dragon Realm >" (I)
My Aura as well as my Authority and Divine Power explode to the surroundings consuming all Divine power in the area, the blue sky turned red as Black Dragons made of pure darkness flew by the hundreds in large groups, and in the sky only one big golden eye filled with intent assassin and below me a Battlefield filled with all kinds of bodies with a large crack where blood was seeping in, a crack filled with Darkness whose depth was unknown.
When the space became mine again any and all connections to the outside were severed, just in case I felt the power of Akatosh Fluorine from my body to my wings before blending with the surrounding space creating an impossible escape cage.
Endless black energy rises from the bottomless Abyss below me healing my entire body as my Aura smashes the insect in front of me to the ground, the golden ring containing an equally golden sun is grabbed by a large claw like the one I created in the last attack, but this time much more realistic with a large jaw on the palm, this claw ripped this ring with a sun away from Rhaegal making him bleed all over his body.
"I've waited so long for you to use the Divine power Baldr bestowed on you." (I)
"As expected, you left it until the last moment, your pride wouldn't let you use another's power until you realized you couldn't defeat me?" (I)
"ARASH... LIKE YOU..." (Rhaegal)
"Finally I can crush your Soul with all my might and feast on your corpse... hahahahaha...." (I)

Pov Zenos:
I couldn't deal with any more problems right now, even if I had recovered my Mana and Spirit Energy, my mind was still exhausted from helping Layla and Nix, not to mention the pressure I felt during those two occasions on my Soul.
I told everyone to wait for me at the mansion and I didn't listen to anyone, there was no point hearing new problems if I hadn't finished solving the old ones, so I took a deep breath before entering the Communal Temple and stopping in front of the statue of the Dragon God Akatosh.
