Versatile Mage: Summoning Black Dragon, the pinnacle of divine power

Chapter 244: A Hero, and a Traitor

……

"Sariel, are you sure you want to use this method?"

After leaving the temple, Fal, feeling increasingly uneasy, sought out Sariel.

How dare the Turs family go against Caesar at a time like this?
If someone dares to unleash dragonfire outside Cairo, it's not impossible that they might unleash a dragonfire attack on the Turs family if they're really provoked!
But they still dare to do this. Who gives them the confidence?
Who has a grudge against the temple? Who would dare to break ties with the temple at a time like this?
Su Lu!

Only this Dubai chief is about to be driven to a dead end!
“I sense the darkness stirring; an ancient god tainted by darkness is about to return to the mortal realm,” Sariel said.

Far was stunned. "Apollo the Giant? Su Lu resurrected that thing using forbidden dark magic?"

"You...you're all insane!"

The Turs family, plus a high-ranking official of the Asian Magic Association, plus the Year of Titan, and a Titan God-King!
This scene will be even more exaggerated than what happened in Egypt!

“Didn’t you think about what would happen if things got out of control?” Far said.

“The bigger the better,” Sariel said.

"Only in this way can those ambitious people hiding in the shadows see that they either remain forever in the gutter, dying with their ambitions, or they die now!"

"..."

Far looked at Sariel in silence. Now she understood why Sariel had always been called the Angel of Slaughter.

This guy really will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

"Are you confident you can take down Su Lu?" Far asked.

“Are you questioning my power?” Sariel frowned.

“I don’t doubt your strength, but I doubt your self-awareness,” Far said.

Sariel stood up and vanished from Far's sight in an instant.

"Self-awareness?" Sariel's cold voice rang out behind Fal.

"Are you questioning the self-awareness of a supreme spatial forbidden spell mage?"

"Are you still doubting the archangel's self-awareness?"

"Su Lu? Who does he think he is?"

"If I weren't currently busy, he wouldn't be worthy of being my opponent!"

……

"Do you need me to mediate?"

Meanwhile, Mrs. Luo, sensing that things were about to get out of control, approached Xin Yuekui.

"Mediation? Mediation about what?" Xin Yuekui asked.

"Does the temple really intend to target Turs?" Lady Loo asked.

"Don't forget, the Turs have guarded the temple for a thousand years; they are the temple's heroes."

“They are heroes, but they are also traitors,” Xin Yuekui said.

"If we don't deal with them, the rebellion will only increase."

“The sparks of rebellion must be extinguished as soon as possible, and everyone must see the consequences of rebellion.”

The collapse of the divine order was largely due to the lenient treatment of the rebels within the divine race, which failed to deter others and led to the proliferation of more and more rebels.

"Aren't you afraid that this will cause everyone in the temple to feel insecure?" Lady Loo asked, puzzled.

“You saw what happened at the banquet. Not to mention outside, even the loyalty of the Knights’ Hall, the Faith Hall, and even the Goddess’ Hall is questionable. Your display of violence at this time will only bring more fear.”

The violence Caesar displayed was enough!

It's already over!

The dragon fire outside Cairo had already transformed Caesar from a respected son of God into a fearsome ruler of dragons!
Afterwards, the Black Dragon Emperor swaggered across half the world, almost triggering a war between demons and monsters, further amplifying this fear!

They've hit us hard enough!
The temple should now offer incentives to appease those who are afraid.

The Turs family dared to do that probably because they didn't think the temple would continue to squander violence.

But to everyone's surprise, Caesar killed Turs!
She saw everyone's reaction; no matter how she tried to cover it up or pretend, she couldn't change the fear that was growing in their hearts!

Whether they are members of the temple or guests of the temple.

Continuing to squander violence will only create a temple where people are alienated and live in fear.

"No." Xin Yuekui poured a cup of tea for Madam Luo.

"He has already prepared the gifts that everyone wants."

Mrs. Loo looked puzzled. "I don't think he'll back down."

“He doesn’t need to compromise,” Xin Yuekui said. “The temple doesn’t need to compromise either; compromise won’t solve the problem.”

"Did the founder of this temple gain support by making concessions?"

“The situation is different,” Mrs. Loo said.

Thousands of years ago, the goddess Athena liberated the Mediterranean region from the rule of the Titans and established a civilization of her own.

At that time, the fear instilled by the Titans far exceeded that of the temples.

But things are different now. No one feels any crisis from elsewhere; Caesar is the only source of their fear!

“If the conditions aren’t right, then we’ll create them,” Xin Yuekui said.

"Create the conditions?" Mrs. Loo frowned.

"The calamities of the Year of Titan alone seem far from enough."

"How do you think the Turs family would dare to go to such lengths with him?" Xin Yuekui asked.

"Based solely on the achievements of their ancestors?"

"Past achievements are ultimately just a few vague words."

“What supports their actions must be a sufficiently real force.”

“Power…” Lady Loo looked thoughtful.

The Turs family is indeed a family of forbidden spells, but how could they possibly possess the power to fight against the temple on their own?
"Don't worry, you'll see soon," Xin Yuekui said.

“You seem to trust him a lot,” Mrs. Loo said.

"Is he worthy of your trust?"

Ever since she met Xin Yuekui, she had never been able to understand how this saint could be so devoted to Caesar. Everything she did was very clear: she did whatever Caesar said, and she would get whatever Caesar wanted for him.

"Don't be fooled by his seemingly willful behavior; he's very smart," Xin Yuekui said.

"Everything is under his control now, whether it's your reactions or their actions."

“But he clearly didn’t expect Tulls’ betrayal,” Mrs. Loo said.

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten myself into this situation."

There are simpler and safer ways to handle the Tulls family's affairs, but now that Caesar has brought things to this point, even if it is eventually resolved, the losses he himself will suffer will not be small.

“How do you know he didn’t think of that?” Xin Yuekui asked.

"..."

"Could it be that the betrayal of the Tulls family is what he wanted?" Mrs. Loo laughed.

“Of course,” Xin Yuekui said.

"There are many people with disloyal intentions within the temple. What is the fastest way to eliminate those disloyal individuals?"

"Appease them? That will only embolden them."

Mrs. Loo was taken aback. "To make an example of someone?"

"Isn't it going too far to choose an ancient family of forbidden spells as a warning to others?"

"Pass?" Xin Yuekui shook her head.

"That's not enough. The destruction of Turs alone is not enough to deter them."

“There are families with forbidden spells stronger than Turs, and there are also families that are not afraid of the Black Dragon Emperor.”

"True deterrence requires completely destroying their sense of complacency!"

Lady Loo's expression changed. "The Emperor?"

Why is the majesty of the Holy City so unchallenged?

It's because they can confront the emperor directly!
Those archangels could drive away even ancient dragons!
Even the ancient holy city was built on the bones of ancient dragons!
If Caesar could expel an emperor on his own, even those forbidden families would never dare to offend him again!

"Does he have the power to expel an emperor?" Lady Loo asked doubtfully.

She had never seen Caesar make a move; she only knew that he controlled the Eye of Time and Space and could easily destroy even a high-level mage.

However, even a high-level mage is no match for an emperor!
The Eye of Time is indeed powerful, but Caesar is too young; he probably cannot fully control that powerful force.

"Expel?" Xin Yuekui laughed.

"Is expulsion alone enough?"

"Destroy!"
