This is an uninhabited area with a barrier. Anyone entering or leaving here needs the consent of the barrier owner. Now, there is only one person with animal ears, who is obviously an adult male who has been in a high position for many years, and a sleeping sea dragon.

Resisting the urge to throw away the badge with ominous patterns in his hand, Fios injected magic into it again.

This is a tool that will bring disaster upon use. As the current leader of the Dragon Clan and the most powerful person among all the Dragon Clan tribes, Fios Fast Igrit is well aware of this. However, the Dragon Clan is now in a situation where they have no choice but to use "this".

According to Dragon Island's current development, a rebellion will occur within seven generations, no, five generations at most. Even if it doesn't, Dragon Island will gradually decline due to the loss of personnel and eventually become history.

The reason for all this is the long-term lack of route guardian beasts. Therefore, as the clan leader, I must shoulder the task of making the dragon clan prosperous, even if the price is to use this forbidden item.

"I've put so much effort into creating this legacy, I can't give it up out of fear..."

Chapter 35: Forged Inheritance

As if to cheer himself up, Fios murmured softly, then slowly opened his mouth and chanted a spell in a voice that an ordinary human could never make - dragon language magic.

As the strange spell sounded, the originally dull badge began to flash ominous dark purple lines, beating regularly as if it had life.

"*******"

While chanting the dragon language magic that only dragons can use, Fios showed a painful expression.

The source of the pain was not only the fake seal of original sin that took a huge amount of effort to create, but also the guilt of causing everyone on Dragon Island to enter an extremely weak period. Even though Fios had already made the decision in his heart to successfully use the fake seal of original sin to control the sea beasts even if it meant sacrificing everyone on the island, actually implementing it was another matter.

——I will definitely go to hell after I die.

Fios had already realized this. From his own calculations, he knew that the number of people injured by the False Seal of Original Sin was at least several thousand. While most of these injuries were caused by falls due to weakness, the source of this weakness was his failure to control the sea beasts with the False Seal of Original Sin, allowing the excess curse to spread to the island.

This Seal of Original Sin is not the real Seal of Original Sin in the legend, but a forged inheritance created by Fuos using the few remaining materials of the dragon clan. It is a degraded version of the "Beast Taming" Seal that originally had the ability to summon and symbolized jealousy.

However, since even Fuos himself had never seen the real Seal of Original Sin, Fuos could not be sure how much power the fake Seal of Original Sin in his hand had inherited from the original "Beast Taming" Seal.

——But... now all I need is the ability to control the sea dragon. As long as I can successfully control this sea dragon, the rest of the sea dragons can be tamed slowly using this method.

Thinking of this, Fios couldn't help but show disgust on his face. If the underwater people hadn't issued a curse at the last moment that Dragon Island would be attacked by sea beasts, he wouldn't have to take the risk of being immediately attacked by other races once they discovered him.

The chanting of the lengthy spell finally ended, and Fios held high the Seal of False Original Sin, projecting the blooming dark purple light in front of him - there was a sea dragon that was cast with sleep magic.

While praying in his heart, Foos looked at the sea dragon lying in front of him with hopeful eyes. This time, the use was smoother than any previous time. Foos was even sure that if the monster in front of him was below level 40, he would definitely be able to take full control.

The purple light gradually enveloped the sea dragon's entire body, and the sleeping sea dragon gradually woke up.

One second, two seconds.

Slowly, the dragon opened its huge eyes, and its originally black pupils were filled with ominous dark purple. Standing up with its huge body that was more than fifty meters tall, the dragon stared at Fios, who was countless times smaller than itself.

Holding the Pseudo Seal of Original Sin in his hand, Fios began to try to give orders.

"sit down."

However, unlike what Fios had expected, the dragon slowly opened its huge mouth that could pierce everything, and used the most common attack method of the dragon clan - breath - on Fios.

"roar--!"

"Tsk."

Quickly taking out a gorgeously decorated spear from the storage item, Fios entered combat mode and used magic to order his subordinates to come and help. Even if he had reached the heroic level at level 55, there was no guarantee that he could survive the battle with an adult dragon without injury.

……

Looking at the surroundings that were enclosed by a barrier to avoid people, there was a rare surprise in Camisia's voice.

"Princess...how on earth did you manage to bypass the barrier and reach the interior?"

"Eh? Is there a barrier blocking it? But even if there's a barrier blocking it, we can still use teleportation magic to get in, right?"

According to Ella's idea, a barrier that can prevent others from passing through should not be able to withstand magic like "teleportation" and "teleportation", which directly jump from one space to another.

"That's usually the case... but the barrier looks like it's high-level, blocking even teleportation magic. Without a deep understanding of magic circles, it's impossible to pass through it with teleportation magic. Princess, have you truly surpassed me?"

Because of the mask, Ella couldn't see Camisia's expression, but judging from her voice alone, Camisia might be feeling a little disappointed but also a little relieved.

"No, that's all I can do. Offensive magic, for example, can only be performed by Camisia."

After saying this, Ella slightly frowned her beautiful eyebrows, and after becoming a magic caster, her pointed elf ears felt the subtle flow of magic in the air.

Following this feeling, Ella turned her gaze to the mountain not far away, where a purple light was emanating. She and Camisia quickly crossed the mountain, hid themselves, and looked down from a high place.

There was a giant dragon with wings, at least fifty meters tall, and opposite it was a dragon man floating in the air, gasping for breath - the two had a subtle commonality, that is, each had several scars left by battle.

『Advanced Appraisal』

"Wow, he's actually that Phoos... He's the clan leader, but he's only level 55. The sea dragon is only level 49, so he looks like he's having a hard time fighting."

Although she wanted to rush out and intervene in the battle, it would be too reckless to do so before figuring out what was going on. Ella whispered the other party's intelligence.

Protecting Ella, Camisia placed her fist on her lower lip and explained while observing the battle.

"The dragon tribe possesses a natural physical advantage, so even if there's a level difference, they can still fight on equal terms. As the princess mentioned, the tribe leader is only level 55. I believe this is a common phenomenon on the continent. Dean and I were able to reach level 60, surpassing the heroic realm, because we both have long lifespans. Ordinary humans don't have that much time to accumulate experience, so level 55 should be considered very high in their eyes."

"yes……"

With an indescribable complex feeling, Ella couldn't help but complain again about the experience conversion rate and difficulty of obtaining it in this world.

Perhaps she discovered something in Fuos's hand. Camisia, who had originally perfectly concealed her own breath, suddenly burst out with a ferocious aura. The terrifying feeling she exuded made Ella tremble, and she turned her head towards Camisia in fear.

Camisia now displayed the golden cat eyes. Her cat-like golden pupils looked eerie in the darkness. Influenced by the multiple personalities within her golden cat eyes, even her voice became alluring.

He held Ella at his side with one hand and took out the Sword of Disorder with the other.

"Hey, Demon Lord, are you now thinking of defeating the One God and avenging the previous Demon Lord?"

Completely unable to get used to Camisia's current active state, Ella swallowed carefully and thought for a long time before answering with an answer that was not really an answer.

"What about Camisia's own wishes?"

"I? Hmm—should we be called us now? Even though our personalities differ greatly, we are all completely united in our attitude towards the Demon Lord. In other words, the will of the current Demon Lord, Eleraya Nott Mistytin, is our will."

Lowering her head and not looking into Camisia's eyes, Ella bit her lower lip. She didn't understand why Camisia suddenly said this. Moreover, in Camisia's eyes, the previous Demon King should be equivalent to her parents, so if she said she was unwilling, she would probably be regarded as a person without feelings.

But in fact, at least in Ella's impression, she didn't know the Demon King at all, and had no interest in war at all, so it was impossible for her to tell others that she was challenging the One God - the one with a petite body who always wanted to pretend to be an adult.

Since there is an impossible decision to make, then the other side can also make a choice as long as it is not equally impossible. Raising her eyes covered by her long golden hair, Ella looked carefully at Camisia with her eyes as blue as the deep sea, and said hesitantly.

"Then...what if I say no?"

After a pause, Camisia sighed softly.

"—The Demon King is indeed the Demon King. If you have no intention of challenging the One God, then we will forever destroy the tools that allow us to challenge him... And to be honest, if we start a war again, we will definitely push you to the front line. If we fail... We can no longer afford to lose you!"

Letting go of Ella, Camisia took out the Sword of Disorder from the ribbon, turning it into a pitch-black bow that was as tall as a person. She pulled the string made of magic power to the full moon, and then shot it at the object emitting dark purple light in Fios's hand.

"'Blade of Silence'."

Chapter 36: Despair Entanglement

An arrow flashing with dark purple electric light pierced through the darkness, leaving a series of dull explosions in the air, and shot towards the Pseudo Seal of Original Sin in Fios's hand.

This magic can only be regarded as one of the less powerful among Camisia's many offensive magics, and the reason why Camisia chose this magic is precisely because of this point.

——Even if destroying the Seal of Original Sin is the princess's wish, indiscriminate attacks will definitely cause problems.

The opponent was the leader of the Dragon Clan. Using a less aggressive skill could be covered up by claiming he had used the Seal of Original Sin without authorization. However, using a direct, one-hit kill spell would inevitably provoke a conflict between the Dragon Clan and the Demon Clan, an outcome the princess did not want to see.

One must also have one's own judgment when following orders. This is the result of a discussion between Camisia and several personalities in the golden cat's eyes.

During the time when she used the Golden Cat's Eye, even Iris could not surpass Camisia in wisdom. However, due to Camisia's main personality, the "serious Camisia" did not like the terrifying look of the Golden Cat's Eye, so she would only use it when she needed to show her full strength.

But weaker magic naturally has the flaw of being easily resisted.

"Who?"

Because the sound made by the arrow was so eye-catching, even though Fios had his back to the arrow, he could still feel its presence. When he turned around and found that he could not dodge it with his speed, Fios chose to fight back.

"A flash."

Finding the right moment, Fios swung the gorgeous spear in his hand downwards, and the spear flashing with blue light accurately hit the arrow shot by Camisia.

boom--

The explosion caused by the collision caused Fios to fly backwards, but Fios did not have the time to control his body because there was the breath of the sea dragon behind him. Although the dragon's breath would produce different effects due to different properties, they all had one common characteristic, that is, they all had damage equivalent to third-level magic. If Fios was hit without any preparation, his combat effectiveness would definitely be affected.

""fortress"."

Fios, flying in the air, was enveloped in orange-red light and suffered no harm even when bathed in the sea dragon's powerful breath.

This is a skill similar to the magic caster's "Magic Shield", except that the magic shield is displayed outside the body, while the fortress strengthens the warrior himself.

Finally stabilizing his body, Fios jumped to a position equal to Camisia and Hailong, forming a triangle shape.

Because of the sudden, unknown attack, Hailong and Fuos both stopped. Camisia and Ella were unknown to the other two, and if they ignored this and attacked rashly, they would be caught in a pincer attack. Therefore, neither Fuos nor Hailong was willing to take the initiative.

An eerie silence fell on the beach.

"Tsk, I really should have chosen a more powerful spell."

After clicking her lips to express her dissatisfaction, Camisia, who was standing in the corner, pulled the bowstring again.

"Camisia, why did you suddenly attack?"

"My Lord Demon, what Phoios is holding is probably the Seal of Original Sin. If we don't take it away quickly, it will become even more difficult to deal with later."

“In that case—”

"Hurry! Lord Phoebus has given the signal! Hurry up, everyone!"

Just when Ella was about to ask her to go, a group of people holding torches and wearing soldier armor ran down the mountain. Judging from the levels displayed on the terrain search, these soldiers were well-trained and were elite soldiers of at least level 15.

"Camisia, I'll leave those people to you. Let me handle the Mark of Sin!"

Looking into Camisia's eyes, Ella showed a firm look, but given the weak appearance of the elven magic caster, this firmness did not make people feel reassured no matter how they looked at it.

But that was just an appearance. With Ella's current level at least ten times higher than that of Sea Dragon and Fios, even if she couldn't use attack magic, she was absolutely sure that she could snatch the Seal of Original Sin from Fios without any harm by relying solely on damage-free control skills.

If I let Camisia go, although it should be possible, I would certainly not be able to avoid the possibility of Camisia getting hurt, which would go against my original intention of bringing only Camisia and not letting others get hurt.

Therefore, it would be better to let Camisia be responsible for stopping those who come to support. With Camisia's serious character, there will definitely be no unprovoked massacre. At most, it will only cause minor injuries that can be easily recovered by healing magic.

"Phoos and the Sea Dragon are both powerful enemies. Demon Lord, you are stronger than them, but if you can't use offensive magic..."

"It's okay. I can handle it easily at my current level. I just need Camisia to trust me. Besides, I'm more worried about my identity being exposed. Does Camisia have any masks that can conceal my identity?"

After hesitating for a moment, Camisia lowered her head.

"My apologies, Demon Lord. Although we have backup masks that can conceal our identities, they are of such low quality that they are likely to be seen through by Phoebus. However, considering your current race and ethnicity, going out without any disguise is the best disguise in itself."

When Camisia mentioned Ella's racial characteristics, she couldn't help but glance at Ella's pointed elf ears, which were faintly visible under her golden hair. There was an excitement in her voice that Ella couldn't hear - that was the influence of 'Camisia', who had a unique fetish for pointed elf ears in the eyes of the golden cat.

He showed an awkward look when talking to the princess. This extremely rude behavior made "Serious Camisia" frown and closed the golden cat eyes to return to normal state.

"Why is it better not to pretend?"

"My Lady Princess, Phoebus is a very rigid person. If you appear in your elven form, even if your appearance is very similar to your normal self, he will not mistake you for your normal self. Although he may be suspicious, racial characteristics are something that cannot be faked. Therefore, you only need to display the auxiliary magic that the elves are good at."

Ella waved the staff in her magic chanter state, "Water Dance". This is a long-handled gorgeous staff with blue as the main color and inlaid with a large number of gems. It can greatly enhance the power of all attribute magic.

"Is that so... I'm glad there's no problem. Then, I'll leave that to Camisia."

"Yes, Princess-sama. May your military fortune flourish."

After performing the highest etiquette among the demons, Camisia transformed the Sword of Disorder into a giant sword and jumped to the group of soldiers holding torches at the foot of the mountain.

"Well then... I have to get started, but I didn't expect it to be a fake Seal of Sin... What a despicable bunch of people."

When Camisia said that what Fios was holding was the Seal of Original Sin, Ella used "Advanced Appraisal" to confirm its level, but did not get any effective response. So Ella tried to use the "Item Appraisal" of the identification item, and the result was that the badge that Camisia thought was the Seal of Original Sin was actually just a fake.

After sorting out what to say in her mind, Ella rubbed her face to prevent her expression from looking too stiff.

"Yeah, that should be fine, it should be fine... Don't get nervous just because he's the Dragon King. I'm also a Demon King of the Demon Clan!"

"Who's that over there?"

Just as Ella was cheering herself up, Fios's voice came from the other side. Judging from the voice, Fios should be quite close to her now. It seemed that he was slowly approaching during her previous conversation with Camisia.

His primary goal now is to recover the Seal of Original Sin. If this fake Seal of Original Sin is made based on the real Seal of Original Sin, it would be helpful to him if he could get it. Moreover, even if this thing remains in the hands of Fios, it is just a prop that will cause harm to others. There is nothing pitiful about taking it away. As for the battle between Hailong and Fios, let them solve it themselves.

Clearing her throat, Ella ascended into the air under the influence of the Wings of Hermes and answered with the same majestic voice she used when she was posing as the Messenger of the Sole God.

"You don't need to know who I am. My only goal is to take back what you have."

Seeing Ella flying into the air, Fuos's black pupils narrowed instantly. Judging from Ella's current features, she should be an elf, but in Fuos's cognition, there was no one who looked like Ella in the elf tribe, not to mention that Ella looked only thirteen years old at most.
