Odyssey of the Blind God-Chapter 509 Enemies?

Nial had only encountered a single Draco until now, but that was already enough for him to know that they were not to be taken lightly.

Ophelia was probably one of their most important geniuses, if not the most important. However, that didn't say much about the Draco race's average strength, which races they were at war with, and so on.

The only thing Nial knew for good was that the Dracos were a race with a high fire affinity and great Artisan skills. They were exceptional in the fields of blacksmithing and rune engraving.

Thus, their combat prowess increased by a notch no matter what rank they were at or how bad their combat awareness and combat experience were. They could simply forge high-quality equipment from low-quality materials.

'I really hope that they can't create Broken Runic Armaments, otherwise, everyone is dead…' Nial mumbled, not even daring to imagine how powerful Broken Tier-3 or Tier-4 Runic Armaments would be. Everything would end up getting destroyed the moment someone were to use such Broken Runic Armaments.

Nial shuddered a moment before he told Ryu to slowly descend near the Royal Princess.

"Are the Elven and Dracos at war?" He asked immediately while Ryu continued to fly a few meters above the surface.

Nial was ready to jump down if necessary, and fight if there was no other way around but he was still hoping that things wouldn't escalate to that level.

Unfortunately, visualizing the tense expression of the Elves all around him only made him feel worse. None of them looked calm, or as if they had the situation under control.

That was a little bit worrisome but it also answered Nial's question before the Royal Princess could open her mouth.

"Let's just say that our traits are different. They love fire, we don't really adore fire. Even the Pyromas Elves don't love fire to the extent the Dracos are obsessed with it. There is definitely tension between our races, but we haven't been at war, until now," The Royal Princess explained at the end, her voice cracking lightly. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

'The fact that you guys are tense is not something I cannot not see….'

Nial was not sure in what direction the situation would turn but the tension all over the region was definitely high.

"Alright, I will observe first. You guys do whatever you have to do, I guess…" He told the Royal Princess who had already diverted her focus from him. She looked at a large Draconic Bull whose entire body was clad in burning scales.

The dungeon beast was powerful and it was not an existence that could be tamed easily. The beast wouldn't listen to anyone but the Original it had accepted as its master.

"Desmian Leshoq, long time no see!" The Royal Princess shouted out a greeting after a moment. Her voice reverberated through the surrounding area, just for a hushed line to follow suit, "...not that I like seeing you again though…"

Nial's lip twitched at Princess Evalyne's outburst. He was still hoping that the entire situation would not result in bloodshed, but it didn't look like the Elves were of the same opinion.

'Have they forgotten the fact that provoking an army with more than a hundred thousand members is not something you should do when you're just a group of what…100 Elves?'

For now, less than a hundred Elves had emerged from the Forest of Life to aid the Royal Princess. Most were still unsure of what was going on, but that was not the problem.

Nial could pretty much tell that the Dracos were at an advantage, whether it was in terms of Armaments, Mana Core Rank, racial traits, or environmental advantages.

The Dracos could attack the Forest of Life, forcing the Elves to react in a desperate manner to protect their home.

There was also the Empress Divinity Fragment in the Forest of Life. The Elves had to protect that as well!

"I don't really like seeing you either, Wood Princess. How about you hand over your mother's divinity fragment and we separate immediately after that? I hope I don't have to see you anytime soon either!" A loud voice answered.

It echoed through the entire region and filled Nial's ears. He felt weird for a moment, just to realize that a type of altered mana had been used to make sure that the Draco's voice could travel through the surrounding area.

He didn't amplify his vocal cords but the noises that came out of his mouth were very loud and clear.

Nial had never witnessed something like that even if it was nothing he would consider difficult to do.

'To think that this could have such unique effects…' Nial thought for a moment before he repeated what the presumed leader of the Dracos had done.

"How does my voice sound?" He asked Ryu quietly while using normal Mana to amplify his words rather than vocal cords.

Afterward, he did the same with his dark energy.

"And now? Am I more imposing, is it the same? What changed?"

Nial and Ryu couldn't directly talk with each other, but they could transmit feelings. Nial was also able to speak to Ryu, but the Darkness Gryphon was not able to reply if one excluded his violent chirping.

Nonetheless, Nial and Ryu were good at communicating with one another because they could understand each other.

That made it quite easy for Nial to experience what exactly the change in his voice caused when he used mana or different types of energies.

In the end, he spends two minutes testing out a bunch of things. He even tried to use Chaos to change his voice, but that was rather painful. The entire lower part of his face hurt when he tried to converse with Chaos. However, other than the last attempt, it was a great and very intriguing experience.

Nial didn't forget to pay attention to whatever occurred below him while he was having fun in the air. He observed everything with great detail using his range of perception and Mana Sense.

That was also how he figured that there were not only Dracos but also a bunch of tamed monsters on the ground and hovering on top of the clouds above him.

Wyverns were hiding above the clouds, ready to dive down the moment they received the order.

It was pretty obvious that the Wyvern were either there for a nice meeting with the Elven, or to burn everything to ashes if things were to go south.

Considering that the Dracos demanded the Divinity Fragment of the Elven Empress, it was pretty obvious that it was only a matter of time before war would break out.

Nial didn't really want that.

Thus, he chose to act like a fool and pull the Dracos' attention toward him.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your reunion, but how about we don't fight? There are more than enough enemies all over the Origin. Furthermore, Ophelia, your once-in-ten-thousand-years prodigy, wouldn't like seeing my death. She finally found a rival…" Nial said, knowing deep down that he was just spouting nonsense.

But maybe…just maybe, it would work!
