I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 327

Chapter 327 – The Captive Shae

“Kneel down, Lady!!”

The face of the Goddess of Night was extremely twisted and crazed. She struggled with all her strength, but she was just a divine creature at the moment. How could she resist the oppressive force of divine power?

Her jade hands pressed down on the ground, and her graceful back seemed to be carrying the weight of a thousand mountains as it bent deeply as if she was kneeling in front of Louie.

The veins on her forehead popped as her body trembled from the pressure, displaying that she was using all her will to go against Louie’s spirit.

“Tick… tick…”

A coppery taste coated her tongue as she knelt. Louie stood in front of her, gazing indifferently at her struggle.

This was an absolute insult to the Goddess…

Gods weren’t beings that hadn’t been humiliated before. Shae herself knew that during the Era of the Gods, there had once been a Goddess who trusted a powerful demon lord before being deceived by it. In the end, she lost her divine power and was imprisoned in the depths of the Abyss where she was ravaged by demons every day and night. It could be said that she had been turned into the demons’ plaything.

If the Goddess hadn’t been fortunate enough to be saved by a passing mortal, then she would have been pulled down from the Astral Realm and died in humiliation.

The gods did not really care even if they were humiliated as long as they were alive. Their moral values were simply different from mortals’, and some goddesses were said to have messy private lives. Just as there were messy goddesses, there were also goddesses who were clean, and Shae was in this category.

She was the most ancient goddess, the embodiment of all the darkness in the world. Her pride and arrogance did not allow anyone to touch her. She may have teased mortals and gods on occasion, but she would definitely never lower her head and accept insults.

The Goddess of Night gnashed her teeth, almost to the point of crushing them. After resisting Louie’s spell and regaining control of herself, she immediately prepared to detonate her own divinity and leave the palace, not leaving a single bit of divinity for Louie. This was an extremely decisive act.

However, when this thought appeared, she instantly felt a huge surge of divine power once more. Although Dragon City could not be compared to a divine kingdom, it was still Louie’s home turf. The speed at which he converted divine power was quite fast.

Even if Louie’s divine power was nearly exhausted from when he was on Earth, he still had the faith of 300,000 believers of Dragon City. Louie was able to rely on the converted divine power to defeat a legendary rank powerhouse. This many believers was already enough for a god to reach mid-tier divine power. Moreover, even if he did not rely on a god’s power, Louie’s profession was also a high rank. He was, after all, a perfect dragon.

The divine power emerged and smoothed out Shae’s divinity that was about to explode. In other words, Louie had forcibly used divine power to cut off all possibility of Shae killing herself.

“Your Highness Shae, as long as you are in front of me, you won’t be able to kill yourself even if you want to.”

Louie waved his hand, causing Shae to painfully grunt as her whole body was lifted up in a ‘cross’ posture and bound to a wall. Spells and divine power formed into chains that passed through Shae’s body and locked her in place. Her blood flowed and dyed the ground blood red.

“Your will has been imprisoned by me in time in this incarnation. You cannot detonate your divinity, and your power is as small as an ant in front of me. To think I actually managed to capture the Goddess of Night, even if it’s only one of her incarnations.”

Louie smiled and stood in front of Shae. He had completely arrested her movements. And as long as he wished for it, he could turn her incarnation into his own private property.

However, Louie knew that there was no point in doing so. The humiliation might drive Shae mad, but it would not really harm her. This was the biggest headache about the gods. They would never use their true body to move. As long as their true bodies still existed, they would still receive faith. Losing an incarnation did not matter much.

“Lady Night, it is extremely foolish to show your weakened incarnation in front of another god. Did you think that you can swindle a new god like me, or did you think that I don’t dare do anything to you? Or perhaps you have run out of options and have chosen to meet me with such a weak incarnation?”

“… I personally think that the second point is more likely. With your wisdom, you shouldn’t have made such a laughable mistake.”

Louie sat down on the sofa opposite Shae. He sipped his wine while admiring the seductive pose of the ancient god who had lost her freedom.

“God Louie! Treating an ancient god like this is a foolish act, a blasphemous act that only those filthy demons would do. Are you going to completely stand against me and become irreconcilable enemies with me!”

“I swear, this will be the worst decision in your life!”

Shae had been agitated by this humiliation and anger. At this moment, she had newly lost her mind, but she still maintained a trace of sanity.

Shae did not let out any more threats. She was now caught without being able to resist. Saying any more threats would make her look like a clown. She was ready for this incarnation to be insulted by Louie, perhaps for a century, a millennium, or even ten thousand years. No matter how she was played around with, her will would not be distorted, nor was it possible to make her fall.

It wasn’t too late for revenge no matter how long it took. The Goddess of Night swore that once she regained all her powers, she would definitely face this dragon to death, draw his skin, pull his tendons, extinguish his divine fire, and cause him to fall from the Astral Realm and return all humiliation she suffered to him.

Facing the unyielding, angry, and seemingly indifferent eyes, even Louie shivered. The nature of this Goddess was truly scary. She had even tried to return everything to nothingness for her own peace.

She even worked together with an alien civilization and betrayed the gods of her own world.

Although in terms of the outcome, this Goddess had reached a miserable end.

“I know that you have countless enemies in your lifetime. Each enemy was defeated by you and disappeared into the long river of time. Even Her Highness Selune nearly fell in your hands…… I also know that you are quite patient and can spend countless hours planning against me.”

“But that is assuming that you could return to your throne and reach the top of the gods. If you cannot do this, you cannot possibly defeat me.”

Louie calmly and unhurriedly spoke to the Goddess in front of him.

“Do you think that I would fall under the attack of the other gods?”

Shae found that she might have underestimated this dragon. He did not have the youthfulness of a new god, and even had the confidence of becoming one of the strongest gods. He could even face her, an ancient goddess, without a trace of fear.

It was extremely difficult to become a powerful god. Even in the Era of the Gods, there weren’t many powerful gods, so Shae had no idea where Louie’s confidence came from.

The Goddess of Night did not know that Louie obtained the original Dragon God’s godhood. As long as he moved forward step by step, at worst, he would be a mid-tier god with a little ability and tricks. He could easily reach the threshold of a high-tier god. At his base, Louie had gained access to the power of the camps that would make him fearless against any gods in this world.

“There is a great possibility that you would fall under the siege of the gods, especially with how weak you are right now. You are also a god who possesses many divine authority and a lot of divinity, which makes you a walking treasure trove that could move the greedy hearts of others… Naturally, with your means and abilities, there is also a very small possibility that you will once again return to your exalted throne and recover your glory and authority.”

“But this possibility is very small. The reason you came to me is that you can threaten me and force me to work together with you so as to increase your possibility of success. Although you pursue tranquility, you would definitely not pursue it at the cost of your own downfall.”

Louie faced the bound Goddess of Night and said calmly.

“You are wise, God Louie! Compared to those who are blinded by the chaos and those who are corrupted by pleasure, you, a new god, are wiser and possess more vitality than I imagined.”

Shae’s gaze was obscure as she lowered her eyelashes.

“No, I am not wise, but you, Shae, are at the end of the road and have no more means to use. As a result, you have resorted to this tactic, and I called your bluff.”

Louie put his glass against Shae’s chin and smiled, “I’m just telling you this right now, Your Highness Shae! You have nothing to negotiate with right now. Rather than a covenant, what you are seeking is asylum. I hope that you can assess your position and use a more appropriate posture to talk to me about cooperation.”
