Chapter 12: Big Boss's Oath Is Also Weighty

"Xiu Si Da Er, Da Er... a noble of the Order Church?"

An aged voice came from the vortex above the dragon corpse; Latanaya's body swayed, her mind trembling.

Merely being gazed upon by the magic dragon nearly collapsed her spirit.

The high-dimensional power from beyond the Abyss was far beyond what a 19-year-old Blood Clan Princess could resist.

She could not feel what was happening outside at all, only sinking deeper into the nightmare of her father's death.

Lilith also showed a terrified expression.

She truly had not expected to encounter an Abyssal Magic Dragon at this time node.

You see, Abyssal Magic Dragons are high-level combat forces among the Abyssal Forces, said to be one of the disasters that could bring about this world's destruction—an enemy that absolutely should not be met at this time node.

Even in the world-saving cases Lilith had studied, such a situation had appeared only a few times.

She couldn't help but panic a little.

Was her first world-saving journey going to end just like this?

Only Big Boss remained unchanged in expression: "It is me, Your Excellency, the Abyssal Magic Dragon."

His bearing was dignified, his posture elegant, more like a noble than a noble—if he weren't cutting the Abyssal Magic Dragon's Dragon Whip at the time.

"Xiu Si Da Er, you have desecrated my Dragon Body like this; are you ready to die?"

The voice in the vortex contained infinite anger; a divine thought was released from within, sweeping over Big Boss's body.

The Abyssal Magic Dragon confirmed the identity of the man before him—indeed Xiu Si Da Er, son of a Bishop of the Order Church.

The magic dragon was very angry; he had faked his death according to the Abyss Will's plan, storing his corpse in a prison for decades.

Just as the appointed time of the plan was about to arrive, soon he would be able to descend again, launch a massacre, and bestow upon these insignificant humans unforgettable torture.

But he never expected his Dragon Corpse would be desecrated! His Dragon Scales were all stripped! Being stripped of Dragon Scales was one thing, but this damn worm was actually still cutting his Dragon Whip! Cutting the Dragon Whip was one thing, but the knife he used was actually his Dragon's Reverse Scale!

Using his Dragon's Reverse Scale to cut his Dragon Whip—what kind of birth thing is this! "Great Abyssal Magic Dragon Mr.," Big Boss said elegantly: "As far as I know, you should not be able to descend into the mortal world now. Your threat means nothing to me."

"Hehe, Xiu Si Da Er..." the Abyssal Magic Dragon took two deep breaths: "In such long years, you are the first human who dares to do such a thing to me, insignificant worm, I guarantee I will—wait, stop stop stop!"

In just a short while, this birth thing Xiu Si Da Er had actually cut off another third of his Dragon Whip.

That small cylinder, hanging on the majestic Dragon Body, swayed with a blow of wind, precarious, drooping as if about to fall.

"You guarantee you will what?" Big Boss asked again.

"I guarantee, I guarantee, I guarantee I won't hurt you, Your Excellency Mr. Xiu Si Da Er."

The Abyssal Magic Dragon gritted his teeth in hatred; if he truly could not descend now, he definitely wouldn't waste words with this bastard, but would swallow him in one bite, crush his bones hard, and savor the sound of his screams.

"Is that so? Fine then, whatever you have to say we can talk later; I'll cut this thing off first." Big Boss nodded and continued his handiwork.

This Dragon Whip was also a rare item; it would surely fetch a good price in noble circles, so he worked very carefully, afraid his hand would slip and not cut it cleanly.

Listening to Big Boss's words, the Abyssal Magic Dragon felt it was absurd beyond measure—this birth thing cutting his own Dragon Whip was one thing, but actually telling him to wait? Too much bullying of the dragon! For a moment, the Abyssal Magic Dragon wanted to ignore everything, descend directly, and burn this birth thing to a crisp with a single breath of fire.

But he still held back.

No, no, steady, steady, don't let anger devour your rationality; if you descend now, it will affect the Great Will's plan, and you'll lose your life...

On one side was dignity, on the other was life; the Abyssal Magic Dragon was in a dilemma.

Finally, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Xiu Si Da Er, let's make a deal."

Big Boss continued cutting, nodding: "Please speak."

"You stop first, stop first!" the Abyssal Magic Dragon was almost breaking down: "I'll give you my power, the power of the dragon; as long as you spare my body!"

"The power of the dragon?"

"That's right, I can make you transform into a dragon!" the Abyssal Magic Dragon roared: "This power is enough for you to roam this world; money, power, women—whatever you want, you can have; if you wish, you can even establish your own country."

"Is that so." Big Boss nodded: "Then give it to me." Seeing Big Boss's hand stop, the Abyssal Magic Dragon finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hehe, as expected, still a foolish ant, a lowly creature who hasn't seen the world; a dragon transformation is enough to send him away.

You have no idea that the source matter hidden inside my body is the real priceless treasure.

He sneered twice, then regained his usual calm: "Xiu Si Da Er, a deal isn't done like this; we need to show sincerity, sincerity from both sides. I need you to swear to your god that you will no longer lay hands on my body. Only then can I rest assured to give you this power."

As he spoke, a stone floated down from the vortex.

The power of the dragon condensed onto that stone.

"No problem," Big Boss nodded.

How could he agree so easily? No, can't be careless with this birth thing... the Abyssal Magic Dragon sensed a trick, carefully recalled his conversation with this bastard, and continued: "Not only must you not act yourself, you must not order anyone else to lay hands on my body."

"No problem."

"And you must not tell anyone the secret of my Dragon Body stored here!"

"No problem."

"Not even record it in writing!"

"No problem."

"And you must not let anyone search your memories, from which—"

"No problem, are you done or not? If you don't want to give it to me, I'll keep cutting." Big Boss furrowed his brow.

"You this birth... fine." The magic dragon thought carefully again, confirmed there were no loopholes to exploit, and sighed: "Then you swear."

"Alright." Big Boss nodded: "Xiu Si Da Er swears to the God of Order that as long as he obtains the method to transform into a dragon, he will no longer continue to harm Mr. Abyssal Magic Dragon's Dragon Body, nor order others, or use any means to spread news of the Dragon Body."

"If he breaks the oath, Xiu Si Da Er will be abandoned by Order and suffer torment in Purgatory for eternity."

After hearing the entire oath, the magic dragon's hanging heart finally relaxed.

Although Order Believers aren't anything good, the god's favor is the source of their power; swearing like this, presumably Xiu Si Da Er wouldn't dare continue to lay hands on the Dragon Whip.

Pitiful ant, in the end still craving great power.

Insignificant and fragile petty person, indeed still a soulless one, hehe.

"Pleasant transaction, Mr. Xiu Si Da Er; with my soul, I forge this firm stone—take my Dragon Stone and go; I hope you can make good use of it."

The stone flashing with blue light flew into Big Boss's palm.

The deep vortex on the ceiling also grew fainter and fainter.

The Magic Rune Stones fell down one after another.

Big Boss took it and nodded. "Thank you very much, Mr. Magic Dragon. You are a man who keeps his promises."

"Hmm, of course. After all, I am the most brilliant gem in the Abyss, sweeping—wait, what are you doing!" The Abyss Magic Dragon suddenly cried out in surprise.

Only to see Big Boss, who had just taken a Dragon Stone from him, pick up the Dragon's Reverse Scale and, without a shred of hesitation, continue cutting on the Dragon Whip.

"Wrong, why are you still cutting, what's wrong with you! Did you forget the oath you swore!"

Big Boss smiled faintly, his hand movements not stopping in the slightest.

Took your Dragon Stone ≠ Let your Dragon Whip go.

As for the oath...

Xiu Si Da Er's sworn oath, what does it have to do with me, Big Boss?

God of Order?

Who is she, does she know me?
