Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 752 The Satisfied Destroyer

"This still works?" Katarina's astonishment was almost overwhelming.

"As for Toril, it's still possible," Karix said with a grin. "There are AOs that we can use but dare not, and a whole bunch that we can't use."

There are gods who are willing to do the dirty work for him, but those who would truly... obediently follow his will without adding their own agendas are probably nonexistent.

Heim is probably the only one who would feel he could actually do something just because of a single command from him.

As for the other Toril gods, the AO can at most ask them not to do anything, but not to participate voluntarily.

You can see that from what just happened!
If Heim doesn't go to Tsurt himself, then neither of them will go with him!

Even Asmodeus looked like he was having a blast.

Otherwise, why would he just strike up a conversation with anyone?

Seeing the various expressions on the guests' faces, including their undisguised astonishment, Karix breathed a sigh of satisfaction.

Ah~ that's the kind of reaction that makes the dragon so satisfied!

The money wasn't wasted after all; at least it gave him some emotional value, since he could only stay in the noisy, empty tunnel.

Damn it, that damned Io.

If he hadn't insisted on shaping their personalities according to their religious beliefs, why would he have locked himself in such a place!

But if he were to actually occupy a world, the result would inevitably be a desolate wasteland.

The result of fighting with all one's might to kill those gods was nothing but being covered in wounds and having nothing but emptiness.

Even those believers who abandoned their self-respect and self-love, who were ruthless and only wanted to kill, could not be spared... When he was angry, not even a fly could survive in his domain.

Then why would he go out into the world?

Wandering and invading the multiverse, living a life only slightly better than those Aragami who had lost their own world and only wanted to survive by devouring other worlds... Karex now looks back and still doesn't know how he survived.

If it weren't for meeting Herasvalgel, a friend with his own wisdom, an extremely stable and gentle personality, and a calm and confident demeanor, Karex would probably have really become a puppet that only knew how to destroy, even less than a mechanical creature, just as Aio had imagined!
The bustling tunnel was the most suitable hiding place that Herraswalgl had found for him.

At that time, Karix had already fallen into an extremely dangerous situation... After destroying more than a dozen worlds in succession, his inner destructive desires had made him almost unable to control himself, and he only wanted to keep killing.

Either you shatter the entire multiverse, or you become like Misca next door, locked in an airtight prison and never see the light of day again.

Although they both live in the noisy, unpredictable tunnel, they lead completely different lives!
At least when he wants to go out, he can go wherever he wants.

As long as I come back before my sanity starts to wane.

Fortunately, even for a creation like him, the multiverse gave him a chance to save himself.

And he did indeed seize the opportunity when he met Hrascwalg, a friend who could calm him down.

If, like those foolish guys, he thinks that what affects his emotions is an attack of malice, and ends up killing his only chance of survival... then he'd be in trouble now...

Karix realized that his anger had surged to its limit again, so he immediately lowered his head and smelled the scent of the young dragon on Katarina.

Then he immediately calmed down.

He didn't know if it was because he had gotten involved in his affairs that the free-spirited Herasvalg was named by Tiamat and forced to become one of the contenders for the five-colored dragon queen's favor... For the male ancient dragons who entered that harem, if Tiamat never left them any offspring, it would affect not only their status but also their race.

The weak have no right to leave offspring.

Although Herasvalgel is among the strongest in that group, what good is strength?
Tiamat gave Heraswalgel no chance at all.

Of course, Horace Vargarr's decision to let the white dragon, whose strength was not up to par, embark on that path that was almost like a beast was also the reason why Tiamat taught him a lesson.

Karexus could feel Tiamat's malevolent gaze upon him.

Destruction... is also a good divine duty for the Five-Colored Dragon Queen.

Even though she knew how much Karix was suffering because of this, she didn't care.

Tiamat knew very well that Io wouldn't let her suffer that much.

In those years, Karex and Herasvalg were practically dead from the heat of the moment.

They really racked their brains and went to great lengths to seize a sliver of opportunity by exploiting Tiamat's greed when the demons and devils started their war.

While Tiamat is not suited to be the High Duke of the Demons, Asmodeus is indeed a novice Demon King.

He certainly couldn't understand how a lawful god could do such chaotic things... all for a few gold coins.

After all, Tiamat's treasure trove could practically fill the entirety of Toril!
For someone like Asmodeus, a person with faith and goals, it's probably impossible to understand Tiamat's shortsightedness.

After all, even if one really wants to make money, between a long-term, stable income and a foolish act of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, a god who has lived for so long should always choose the former! Unfortunately, Tiamat was able to persist until he was promoted to Grand Duke of the first level of Hell because Horace Vargar was really patient and had a really sweet tongue.

Even someone like Herraswalgol couldn't keep going forever.

Having brought Winter out of the house, raised him, and even managed to cultivate a slight maternal bond between Tiamat and Winter, this was already the limit of Heraswalgl's abilities.

After that, he would rather shoulder the burden of the White Dragon's future and fall into a deep sleep than have Tiamat's five faces suddenly appear before him when he was looking at the wind, the rain, and the flowers.

A dragon's life may be bleak, but it must not be hopeless.

Otherwise, Karix wouldn't have just watched his only friend fall into a deep sleep... It's better than not wanting to live at all and going into dragon sleep!
However, Tiamat lacked everything except rebellious new lovers. As time went on, she naturally forgot about the stubborn but docile Herasvalgel.

Especially that red dragon that she recently destroyed, hey~
In fact, the ancient dragons all knew very well that there was no way that any female dragon could pose a threat to Tiamat's rule over the five chromatic dragons!

It's not like Io is reincarnated.

The racial god can never be replaced.

Although there have been humorous instances where the Father of the Elves was almost overthrown by his wife and son, everyone understands that Kerrigan will at most be forced into a deep sleep for tens of thousands of years, and in the end, he will still turn the tables.

The only ones who might be unlucky are the other gods in the elven pantheon, especially those who are at odds with Rose.

Otherwise, those three wouldn't have created a trinity of goddesses to occupy the position of Elf Queen.

It doesn't matter if any one of them dies, or even if all three of them perish together.

The position of the Elf Queen will only become vacant again if she is killed on the spot when the Triune Goddess appears.

Unfortunately, unless there is a major event that could shake up the entire elven pantheon, the Triune Goddess will never appear.

After Rose left, nothing major happened in the Elven Kingdom.

It seems AO is also trying to do something about that side.

That guy was an old fox, always scheming against people.

He didn't really like the nature pantheon because of some things, and the little fairies... Ha~ How could a normal nature spirit be born in such a strange world?
Therefore, he always held a welcoming attitude towards elves.

Unfortunately, in order to get the elves of Corellon to fight against the dragons of Ior, AO offered many favorable conditions back then.

This is why the Elven pantheon, despite being dragged down to the brink of collapse by Toril's reckless descendants, has been able to maintain relative independence.

Beings like Corellon, which were born at the very beginning of the multiverse, are beyond the control of the AO. They can only try to hinder the Father of the Elves.

After being delayed so many times, Corellon grew impatient and brought in a Hill of Trahir, along with the undead he had dragged along... AO must be smiling and clutching his heart right now!

Toril, it's so lively right now!

Even Shar has a boyfriend now!
Herasvalgel is right. As long as you take care of yourself first, you'll always get good results... Karex lay down happily and nodded to Armes: "So, you just want some Void Crystals?"
I still want to take a stroll around the area around Miska Prison.

Let me make this clear beforehand: I'm not capable enough to take you to that area; you definitely can't go inside.

Not to mention, locating a randomly moving tower within that endless void.

Armies laughed: "I never intended to go to Miska."

As long as it's nearby, that's fine.

I just wanted to find something for those old guys on Paradise Mountain to do.

Taiji told me back then that I would definitely know when the time came.

Just as I expected.

"You have fragments of the seven-section scepter?" Karex sat up abruptly. "You promise you won't release it?"

“Absolutely not,” Armes said seriously. “It’s the end of the seven-section scepter, the missing part without a single jewel.”

"Oh! That's alright then." Karex was slightly relieved, then suddenly remembered, "Has this thing been in your possession the whole time?"

The other parts of the seven-section scepter seem to have been there before, including the several divine gems at the end, but there is no trace of the end.

Many people speculate that there was a powerful individual who could completely seal this thing away, who got his hands on it from the beginning and never took it out again.

Armies smiled and said, "I didn't have that ability back then."

It was Taihime who made the move, but she left it for me.
