I, The Dragon Overlord Chapter 385

A roaring fire burned through the city of Selar. Civilians hid in their homes and in their cellars, listening to the gruesome killing outside.

In the world of San Soliel, cities were poorly planned, and even the noble districts of the once Subila Empire were chaotic. Therefore, the soldiers of Selar were unable to form effective strongholds within the city.

On the other hand, Dragon City had been reconstructed by Louie with modern Earth cities as a template. There were many strategic choke points that would make it difficult for any invading force to maintain their advance and keep control of it. Every street could be a battlefield that trapped soldiers on both sides.

But the capital of Selar was different. Due to poor and chaotic planning, the fighting here was completely chaotic. It turned from a large-scale army battle to small-scale group battles.

The soldiers of Dragon City were used to group battles when they trained to fight in alleyways. In this chaotic battle, hired adventurers also had a bigger advantage as they usually comprised less than 20 people and were good at this kind of combat.

Dragon City's soldiers were too well equipped and trained. With the initial chaos, the soldiers were able to quickly adapt to this method of combat. Following the death of the griffin knights of Selar, the two dragons and dragon knights occupied the air. Selar's situation was already becoming more precarious.

Alexia stood on the city wall. With a casual wave of her sword, the head of the enemy soldier beside her was lopped off.

If it were possible, Alexia would prefer to turn into a dragon to fight. For dragons, their bodies were the strongest means of combat. Unfortunately, Alexia was still a baby dragon even if she was a demigod. Her dragon form did not have much combat power, so she could only use her demigod powers to fight.

“The city is as good as destroyed. We can just re-plan and rebuild it. I do not want this kind of messy and dirty city anyways.”

Alexia leaned on her longsword and gazed at the burning city that was filled with shouts and screams of soldiers. Louie had passed on a lot of modern knowledge to Alexia, therefore, Alexia had gained a modern aesthetic, making her feel dissatisfied at this extremely disorganized city.

“Eh? Is it coming?”

Alexia's mind tensed and she looked ahead. From the empty space, a portal appeared and two figures walked out.

One of them was a woman wearing the robes of the Church of the Earth Goddess. She appeared to be a middle-aged woman with gentle eyes. At first glance, she looked like a normal village girl, but Alexia did not dare look down on her, because of the strong aura she was exuding.

Other than this demigod was an old man wearing mage robes. Seeing this old man, the red dragon became furious and lunged at him.

This old man was the legendary mage Eden who summoned him to the San Soliel Mountain Range and fooled him into attacking Dragon City.

His eyes reddened with rage. If not for this old man, how could it have attacked Dragon City and been captured? In the end, he was conditioned by that abominable female dragon and subjected to her disgusting magic, and forced to lay 3000 eggs as a male dragon.

This was such a big shame that it didn't dare seek revenge on Dragon City and ended up blaming all its mistakes on the mage instead of looking for reasons from its own greed.

However, his face flashed with shock when he just reached halfway. He thought nothing and immediately turned in the other direction because he found that Eden had the scent of a demigod.

'How could the mage become a demigod in just a few years?'

The red dragon was confused. Even if he was proud, he was not stupid. Facing off against a demigod was simply foolish even if he had a deep grudge. This time he could pretend not to see him as his own life was more important.

Compared to the red dragon, Alexia could see through the mage more easily.

“The chosen one of the Goddess of Magic?”

The elven dragon's eyebrows knitted slightly. She looked up and down at the old mage in front of her and was a bit doubtful, “He doesn't seem completely like a chosen one though.”

Although the old mage in front had the scent of a demigod, it was unstable and incomparable to the woman of the Church of the Goddess of Earth.

Alexia thought for a second and probably guessed that the Goddess of Magic only arbitrarily picked her chosen one just for this war. Gods had to be cautious when selecting their chosen ones as they would need to be capable of grasping their divine art. Even if Louie intended to choose Pope Clooney as a chosen one, he could not do so because he hadn't finished doing so.

“As expected of the Goddess of Magic. Being a powerful god, she forcefully created a chosen one with her divinity.”

Alexia secretly sighed. This was the power of the ancient gods because they had a lot of divinity, they could waste some of it. Louie could not beat them in terms of divinity.

“I am Eden, the chosen one of Her Highness Mismisella, the Goddess of Magic, and the Patriarch of the church. It is a pleasure to meet you, born of the great dragon and the silver moon, Lady Alexia.”

Eden said courteously and performed a formal mage salute. His temper might have been mild, but he was well educated.

The other person, a believer of the Goddess of Earth, was a genuine demigod. She showed a kind smile and said, “I am archbishop Pamela of the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess. I am here by the goddess' order to stop you, Lady Alexia.”

As powerhouses, unless they were archnemeses, they would still maintain basic courtesy, the same as the gods.

“I am Alexia, daughter of the Silver Moon, and beloved of the Dragon God. I greet you two as the lord of Dragon City!”

Alexia said in a proud tone as she swung the magnificent longsword in her hand and raised her head slightly.

She was not afraid of this pair of demigods. In addition to confidence in herself, she knew that it was hard for demigods to die. Every demigod had a hard time reaching that level and hoped to become a true god one day. As a result, battles between demigods weren't usually deadly.

The vast majority of demigods died only because they failed to ascend. Only a small portion died in battle and war. As long as demigods were not impatient in ascending and did not provoke any gods, they could remain immortal.

Therefore battles between demigods usually stopped at some point. They would not arbitrarily waste their precious divine power and not place themselves in dangerous situations.

“I'll ask for your guidance!”

Alexia's cold and lovely face emitted a faint moonlight. Eden and Pamela also smiled. A surge of divine power rose which contained their understanding of divinity.

In contrast to the tragic battlefield, the three demigods were smokeless fires.

Inside the royal palace of Selar, King Selar paced. His face was full of fear and whenever he listened to the battle report, his hands and feet would feel cold.

The gates of the capital had already been breached, and the soldiers of Dragon City were already eating away at the whole city inch by inch. There had even been a few bold soldiers who directly charged toward the palace, but luckily, the two thousand elites sent to guard the palace had stopped them. That said, blocking this tentative attack was not enough. The King of Selar knew that the situation was now a mess and the Selar was about to fall and soon his palace would be besieged. He absolutely could not escape.

The fear of death made King Selar calm down. He paced in place for a long time. When he saw the beautiful woman with a thick veil appear once more, he still mustered up his courage and spoke, “Lady, I wonder when you will personally help?”

King Selar had a bit of trust for this woman of unknown origin because she had brought 30,000 Danbusil soldiers into the battlefield that were currently fighting with Dragon City's forces.

He could not see through this woman's strength, but he could guess that she was definitely a demigod-level powerhouse.

If a demigod was willing to spend divine power, it was enough to change the tides of battle.

The woman with pale hair lightly glanced at King Selar with her demonic eyes, causing his heart to beat faster and giving rise to a wave of lust.

“The situation has already developed to this point. It's time for me to make a move.”

The woman's lazy and demonic voice contained a honey-like sweetness that made King Selar's face happy. Then this woman extended her hand.

It was white and translucent as if all the magic of the world's beauty was in those jade hands. When it reached out, all colors turned gray and the hand was the only white thing that existed. It was like a black hole that attracted all gazes.

King Selar looked at the hand and gulped as he watched it approach him.

Nearer, nearer, nearer…

The hand touched the neck of King Selar. He felt a cold feeling that made him feel that he could give up on everything as long as he could stay in contact with the hand.

In the next moment, before he could grab the hand, he felt pain as his neck snapped and his body collapsed to the ground.

“See, I have made my move.”

The woman smiled and whispered. Her eyes were full of desire as she looked at Alexia in the distance.

“What a beautiful soul that gave rise to my desire. As long as I can get your soul, my harvest will be enough this time.”

Greed flashed in the woman's eyes as she made a gesture to cast a spell. The entire city of Selar lit up with magical formations in all corners.
