Disciple of Immortal

Act 4: Chapter 39: 《Ruler of The Sky》

Take off that ring, RIddler-san!

I told Riddler to take off his ring immediately.

Riddler revealed a bitter smile as he desperately grabbed his arm.

I can't take it off! We, the dragonfolk have been managing the dragon hole for generations with this ring. When the ring acts up like this, it means that something has happened in the dragon hole. That's why it burns my finger, and I can't take it off my finger!

At that moment, iridescent light rose up as if filling up the vast basement.

Riddler's eyes opened wide and glared at the wall of light.

T-This is the barrier prepared by the previous dragon king for emergency using the magical power of dragon hole! Though the barrier has already been deployed even in normal cases, I've never used it with this kind of output! Why at this kind of timi!

The ring might runaway due to his slip.

Nevertheless, that didn't seem to be intentional either.

Maybe someone is controlling the dragon hole

That's impossible! Only the owner of this ring can control the dragon hole!

The roaring sound kept resounding from the dragon hole.

Then, a huge black dragon appeared from the dragon hole with their wings spread out.

Their huge tail that split in two was moving freely in the air.

The surface of that black dragon's body was covered in iridescent light just like the rock in this place.

That was the magical power of Dragon Hole.

Ruler of The Sky! How did you enter this place!?

Riddler glared at the dragon while chewing his lips.

It seems that the dragon was the Ruler of The Sky.

Honestly, my head couldn't catch up with this development.

I mean, how did they manage to reach this place, and for what purpose?

And then, what was Ramiel's goal?

Alas, I knew one thing.

We're in a pinch.

The black dragon then took a breath.

PHILIA-CHAN! I'LL LEAVE POMERA-SAN IN YOUR CARE!

Leave it to Philia!

I grabbed Riddler's abdomen and kicked the ground to get away from there.

Philia had also grabbed Pomera's hand and leaped faraway.

Right in the next moment, a huge pillar of black flame passed the place where we stood a while ago.

That dragon fired that black flame from their mouth.

I dropped Riddler after we reached a safe distance.

T-That ba*stard! Don't they know that something really bad going to happen if something goes wrong with this place!

Riddler cursed while glaring at the Ruler of The Sky.

Is the dragon hole hijacked by the Ruler of The Sky? Sorry Riddler-san, we might be duped by that fella, they might enter this place using the gap when we come to this place.

That black dragon was most like Ramiel herself.

To begin with, the one who asked us to meet the dragon king was none other than Ramiel.

Not to mention that she was also the one who gave the hint about the item in the treasury.

Maybe, she aimed to make me fight Riddler and she would use that gap in the control of the dragon hole to sneak in.

The dragon king fundamentally couldn't go outside since they had to monitor the dragon hole 24/7.

The moment when the monitoring got loosened was only when someone challenged the dragon king.

Kihihihi Not quite right. Surely, the dragon king is constantly monitoring the flow of magical power around the dragon king's castle, they can instantly strengthen the barrier once they detect any danger approaching. That's too troublesome for me but, I concoct a certain plan to slip in unnoticed. The most difficult part of the plan is the fact that I can't execute that plan. I mean, I'm filled with the magical power of the dragon hole a long time ago. That's why no matter how much I suck the magical power from this place, it won't affect my level or status.

A wave of thought spread like a ripple from the Ruler of The Sky.

Their contour then wrapped in light and their figure got smaller and smaller.

My target is you. Once I lock you up in the barrier of this place, I can use the infinite amount of magical power in the dragon hole to kill you.

The figure got smaller until they became a little girl.

It was a familiar girl with golden eyes and wavy indigo hair.

There was a large crystal attached to her red choker.

The things that were different from what I remembered were her big horn, her two-pronged tail that was longer than her height, and her huge wings.

And then arms that were covered with jet-black scale with sinister-looking claws to replace her fingers.

I don't hate softie who is easy to manipulate but, kihihi, there's a limit to being stupid you know? Sorry but, I also have an important mission on my own, Kanata-san.

She spoke to me with a shameless voice.

Ramiel!?

Surely, I did hear that Ruler of The Sky was a dragonfolk.

But, Ramiel shouldn't be the Ruler of The Sky.

In the first place, she should be Level 10.

I thought that I didn't need this when Veranta gave this to me but, it turned out to be a useful item. Well, I'm glad that I sent Twin Prison Dragon.

Said Ramiel as she crushed her choker with her talon.

That moment, Ramiel's presence suddenly ballooned.

Ramiel

Race: Dragonfolk

1780

9078/9078

9256/9256

Level Disguise?

That was a perfect countermeasure against otherworlder.

The Invisible Hand of God had this kind of technology.

That said technology had become pieces.

Though the Ruler of The Sky was cruel when dealing with the twin prison dragon, she had reason to do so.

Ramiel who knew about my power from the twin prison dragon might judged that she wouldn't be able to defeat me in frontal combat and approached me to lead us toward the trap.

That's why she couldn't afford to let the twin prison dragon to reveal the information about her.

Well, never expected that your status is a few times higher than mine. But to begin with my magical power is snatched from the dragon hole, meaning that the dragon hole is part of me. As long as I can get inside, I can freely control the magical power inside without that trivial-looking ring.

If I'm not wrong, Odio also said that the Ruler of The Sky was dragonfolk who broke the taboo of the dragon by using the power of dragon hole.

Surely, in that situation, canceling the barrier around the dragon hole should be a piece of cake.

That's why she could enter even when the barrier was maintained while Riddler was knocked out and fixed the barrier again once she got inside, in that way, even Riddler wouldn't notice that someone had sneaked inside.

Am I clear? As long as I'm in the dragon hole, my vitality and magical power is inexhaustible. There might be a huge gulf between our levels but, it's a trivial matter.

Said Ramiel as she laughed merrily.
