Overgeared

A loud scream was heard from the sky, which shone a brilliant gold, as if the sun had melted and covered the world. But once that golden light cleared, the sight of the serene blue sky made it seem like nothing had happened at all, like everything was just an illusion.

The swarm of humans and the clouds around them disappeared without leaving a trace, but nothing around seemed damaged, as if the destructive power of the cultivators’ disappearance had never occurred in the first place.

[There is a tenacious one among them.]

Nevartan snorted and disappeared from where he’d been standing. At the same time, a black thunderbolt fell from the other side of the sky, followed by someone’s scream.

Cranbel had been quietly watching the situation. He said, [Did you offer to help me as soon as you regained your freedom? That’s inspiring.]

Cranbel secretly harnessed what little magic power he had left. He didn’t trust the old dragons. He planned to surprise attack Raiders and run away.

Raiders’ golden eyes slowly turned to him.

[There is no reason not to help you. There are only a handful of our species left. You are the only surviving top dragon. You have helped Grid and the humans time and time again, and that is something you should be commended for. You will have to work with the humans to take on the new enemies.]

[......]

Raiders had a point. Cranbel’s wariness eased a bit.

Nevartan returned.

[I lost them. They used a bizarre trick... Was that the one who attacked your lair?]

[No, she was much stronger.]

[Her strength is comparable to ours.]

[Yes, she is among the strongest invaders of this world.]

Raiders nodded before telling Cranbel, [You trust Grid. Knowing him, he won’t turn away from you. Try to take in the overall situation while recovering.]

[What are you going to do next?]

[Unusual magic currents are being detected all over the world. Judging by the shape of the flow, these currents have the power to distort space.]

[Are we talking space rifts?]

[That’s right. This phenomenon is deliberately caused by someone.]

[That someone is aiming for a dimensional connection.]

As apostles of the foreign god, the dragons naturally knew the truth of the world. This world was nothing more than a place with the purpose of entertaining beings from the same dimension as the foreign god, also known as players.

It was unthinkable for a being born here to cross over to a higher dimension, but it was easy for a being from a higher dimension to cross over to this place. The existence of these players was clear proof of that.

[Forcing open a space rift to come here means that these invaders haven’t received the authorization of the foreign god.]

[That is how I interpret it as well.]
