~9 min read 1,725 words

Great Red

The girl murmured the other's title in her heart, her expression gradually falling into loneliness.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "Ophis, care to come with me?"

Ophis turned her head to follow the voice, and saw a young man looking at her with a calm expression.

Even as the Infinite Dragon God, she had no idea when the other party had appeared.

But Ophis didn't dwell on such trivial details, merely saying in a flat tone: "So it was you just now."

"You actually noticed?" Hearing this, Li Ang was first a little curious, then a faint smile appeared on his face. "We're really in sync."

"."

Ophis said nothing. At first she had also thought it was an illusion, until she saw the dragon before her with her own eyes.

That gaze couldn't be wrong—the one secretly watching her just now had been him.

As for why she was so certain.

"Were you also driven out by Great Red?"

As she spoke, Ophis couldn't help tilting her head, clearly in her memory she shouldn't have any of her own kind.

And although she sensed a trace of an aura similar to her own on him, what she felt more of was other, mixed auras.

Hearing this, Li Ang was briefly stunned, then immediately understood what the black-haired girl meant.

The Infinite Dragon God before him seemed to have taken him for a kindred being born in the gaps between dimensions, the reason naturally being his origin attribute 【Infinity】.

But Li Ang had no intention of accepting this identity. After all, Ophis was different from other beings—even without this layer of identity, he was confident he could thoroughly P take good care of this cute dragon.

So after a brief moment of thought, Li Ang slightly shook his head and said: "I came from another world."

Hearing this, Ophis couldn't help being stunned.

For a being like her, other worlds were no secret; she just hadn't expected the dragon before her to actually be a being from another world.

What Ophis didn't know, however, was that the other world Li Ang spoke of referred to another universe, not some other world within High School DxD.

Of course, there was no need to clarify such details.

Seeing the black-haired girl fall silent, Li Ang issued the invitation again: "How about it, will you come with me? I can help you resolve the problem with Great Red."

Great Red definitely had to be dealt with—he couldn't just let it get killed off without doing anything like in the original work.

But as for whether to pen it up for sustainable free-range harvesting, or skin it, flay it, strip its bones, then make its soul into a Sacred Gear, that would have to wait until after meeting it.

Hearing this, Ophis's eyes gradually lit up.

She saw hope of going home.

The dragon before her was very strong—even if the entire Khaos Brigade were combined, they might not be his match.

In that case, it seemed there was no need for her to keep staying in this organization that only kept demanding power from her.

Although the various factions within the Khaos Brigade had all promised to subsequently help her defeat Great Red, so much time had passed and not one of these factions showed the slightest intention of fulfilling that promise.

Ophis didn't suspect them, she just didn't want to wait any longer.

Just as the black-haired girl was about to open her mouth and agree, a voice suddenly rang out on the rooftop: "Lord Ophis, who is this?"

Li Zeweimu looked at the young man not far away, an extremely insincere smile on his face.

Before Ophis could answer, Li Ang couldn't help but let out a snort: "Me?"

"I'm Ophis's long-lost older brother."

?

Hearing these words, a question mark immediately popped up above the silver-haired middle-aged man's head.

What is this guy talking about?

The Infinite Dragon God actually has an elder brother? He had never heard of such a thing.

The smile on Li Zeweimu's face first froze, but then he let out a light laugh: "My lord really knows how to jest. May I ask what business you have with Lord Ophis?"

Though clearly a subordinate, the silver-haired middle-aged man paid no attention whatsoever to Ophis's reaction, instead taking it upon himself to receive Li Ang in her place.

In Li Zeweimu's view, the person before him was nothing more than another fanatic coveting the girl's power, just like himself.

But only one controller could stand beside the Infinite Dragon God—everyone else could forget about laying a finger on that authority.

Even if the other party wanted to obtain 【Snake】, they would need his approval.

At this moment, Li Zeweimu's only doubt was that the person before him felt somewhat unfathomable—clearly standing right there, yet he would intermittently lose awareness of the other's existence.

'A Sacred Gear's ability? Or something else?'

The silver-haired middle-aged man didn't consider the possibility that the person before him might be stronger than himself.

After all, he was a Transcendent. In this world, apart from those two Dragon Gods and the sealed Beast of 666, there were very few beings who could threaten him anymore.

Surely the person opposite him couldn't be a third Dragon God, right?

Li Zeweimu couldn't help finding his own thought amusing.

Yet Li Ang paid no heed to the question from this de facto leader of the Khaos Brigade, merely turning his head to look at Ophis, who had already walked to his side, and extending his right hand toward her.

At this moment, the Infinite Dragon God looked at the jade-white palm before her, and an unusual ripple appeared in her usually calm eyes.

After a brief silence, she placed her left hand in his.

Seeing this, Li Zeweimu's pupils suddenly contracted, his expression instantly darkening: "Lord Ophis, you'd better not easily trust a shady character like this."

He felt threatened.

That guy opposite him... must die here today! He would not tolerate anyone who threatened his position leaving alive!

Before obtaining enough power, he absolutely would not let that stupid dragon opposite him leave!

Hearing this, Li Ang reversed his grip to hold the tender little hand of the girl beside him, then his expression cooled: "These past years, my little sister has truly been in your care."

Although he had no intention of deceiving Ophis on the matter of identity, that didn't mean he couldn't borrow the identity of her elder brother.

After all, even the Infinite Dragon God herself couldn't tell the difference, let alone the other people in the High School DxD world.

Coincidentally, he needed an identity to move about in this world, so he might as well don this Ma Jia right here.

After all, when doing certain things, having an identity was far more convenient than not having one.

Faced with this lie, Orpheus showed no reaction whatsoever, as if the person beside her really were her elder brother—her innocence and slight deadpan expression became, at this moment, her best cover.

Seeing that the black-haired girl had no intention of refuting, Li Zeweimu was suddenly overcome by an absurd feeling.

What kind of joke was this?! Could this person really be the Infinite Dragon God's elder brother?!

But if that were the case, wouldn't that mean—

Before the middle-aged man could react, an indescribable, terrifying pressure suddenly blanketed the entire rooftop.

Squeak—!

The air wailed ceaselessly, as though the majestic force of falling stars filled this not-particularly-spacious space.

Air currents and light congealed midair, as if captured by gravity.

Yet despite such a tremendous commotion on the rooftop, the crowd below noticed nothing amiss.

Bolstered by a vast number of skills and specialties, Li Ang's control over his own power had already reached its peak.

Therefore, under these circumstances, he had absolutely no need to involve the ordinary people below.

Thud—!

Accompanied by a muffled sound, Li Zeweimu uncontrollably dropped to his knees on the ground.

【Reincarnation Eye】+【Word Spirit·Sovereignty】+【Qi Mechanism Sorting】.

In Li Ang's view, the silver-haired middle-aged man—who at most possessed the fourth energy level—simply could not withstand this combination technique.

At this moment, Li Zeweimu's head was pressed firmly against the ground, as though he were kowtowing to Orpheus in apology.

The silver-haired middle-aged man's pupils trembled violently, his eyes filled with disbelief.

'This power?!'

It wasn't that he had never felt the Infinite Dragon God's power before; although the other party was equally mighty, she had never brought him such tremendous pressure.

If they were truly siblings, then the gap in how those two beings wielded power was a bit too vast, wasn't it?!

What Li Zeweimu did not know, however, was that although Orpheus possessed tremendous power, she was not skilled in combat—a point somewhat similar to Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.

She was very likely even inferior to that Goddess of Rabbit.

Just as Li Zeweimu gritted his teeth and struggled, a burst of chaotic footsteps suddenly came, and the rooftop door was pushed open.

Unlike the ordinary people below the rooftop, the Calamity Faction members had, to varying degrees, sensed the anomaly on the rooftop.

Of course, part of the reason was that Li Ang had deliberately leaked some of his aura.

Yet when they hurried up to the rooftop, they were left dumbfounded.

What did they see?

That Li Zeweimu was actually kneeling on the ground?!

Before these Calamity Faction members could react, Li Ang impartially subjected them to the same pressure.

Thud thud thud—!

Following a series of muffled thuds, the Calamity Faction members dropped to their knees one after another; the once-empty rooftop instantly presented an extremely bizarre scene, as though it were the site of an illegal religious ritual.

After doing all this, Li Ang did not immediately make a move against Li Zeweimu, but instead walked over to one of the blue-haired youths and said: "Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, that saves me an extra trip."

Saying so, he extended his empty left hand and gently rested it on the youth's shoulder.

Then, under the fearful gazes of everyone, Li Ang slowly drew a long spear out from within the blue-haired youth's body.

A Longinus, 【Dusk Sacred Spear】.

The strongest divine weapon, hosting the will of a god.
