Chapter 437: 455 A Few Words about the Highs and Lows_1
“Regardless of the reason, he must be pretty important to you, right?”
Tiamat looked at Black Dragon Otto and continued, “So let’s make a deal. We’ll pretend none of this ever happened.
Just let everything go back to the way it was, alright?”
As for the relationship between the Silver and Black Dragons, Otto knew very well.
Even though there was still the uncertainty of the Endless Demon Sovereign, losing his own body would not be in Otto’s best interest at the moment.
As a result, Otto couldn’t help but be tempted by Tiamat’s proposal, even though he didn’t quite want to let her off the hook so easily.
After a brief consideration, Otto stopped gathering the terrifying energy in his mouth and, to Tiamat’s surprise, swallowed the vast amount of energy that had amassed back into his belly.
What the hell, he could swallow that stuff back up?
Tiamat looked dumbfounded, as he had already seen many unusual things about Otto as a Variant Dragon.
A large amount of blue energy was swallowed back by Otto, the dazzling blue light following his neck downward, eventually settling in his chest.
There, a huge blue orb could be seen shining brightly, even through the thick scales.
Originally, a volcanic core resided there, but now, the core had merged with the blue crystal in the Master of Magic’s chest, becoming a more powerful and effective energy source.
Apart from nearly endless energy supply, as just demonstrated, Otto could also recycle the released energy when no longer needed for an attack, making this fusion much more practical than before.
“*Burp!*”
After letting out a satisfying burp, the blue light flickering in Otto’s chest gradually subsided.
Seeing this, Tiamat first looked surprised, then slightly relieved.
It seemed like they had finally worked things out.
Just as Otto was about to speak, a teleportation gate opened next to Silver Dragon Otto, who was already struggling to hold on, and Sofia slowly flew out.
As soon as she appeared, Sofia waved to Otto and said, “Don’t worry, my magic has mostly recovered.”
Upon finishing, she looked at Silver Dragon Otto, who was now gasping for breath. His wings flapped at an irregular frequency, as if he would fall out of the sky at any moment.
“Seriously, you bragged so much before we came here, but look at you now, all battered and worn. I don’t know what to say to you…” Sofia said, her beautiful eyebrows knitted tightly.
Silver Dragon Otto struggled to lift his head to look at her, tried to say something, but eventually gave her a bitter smile.
Although his power was far inferior compared to his heyday due to the creation of Black Dragon Otto, the main reason he ended up like this was because he was too emotional.
If Black Dragon Otto hadn’t awakened from his slumber in time, Silver Dragon Otto would have definitely lost this time.
Shimmering like gemstones, Sofia’s eyes sparkled as she first looked up and down at Silver Dragon Otto, then noticed a small bump on his dragon armor, near the shoulder.
At this moment, Sofia’s face lit up with a smile, and she shouted to Black Dragon Otto in the distance, “Big dumb dragon, I heard everything you said earlier.
I think you don’t need to consider her proposal anymore. I can help you solve this little problem!”
“Just you?”
Before Otto could reply, Tiamat snorted disdainfully at Sofia and said, “A half-breed Dore? Even Rose Advent wouldn’t be as arrogant as you!”
Then, Tiamat sneered at Black Dragon Otto and said, “Otto, surely you don’t believe a word this doll says? She might have a pretty face, but at best, she’s just a pleasant toy!
You’d better think it over, lest you forfeit something even more important just to please your little lover!”
It seemed that Tiamat had misunderstood something about the relationship between Otto and Sofia.
Poor Tiamat had spent so much time and effort talking, yet it felt like none of it had gotten through to Otto. Instead, the pressure on her neck from his dragon claw only increased.
Tiamat’s neck was on the verge of being snapped by Otto’s grip, and the internal bones were making creaking sounds.
Considering the current situation, Tiamat likely wouldn’t make it long before her neck was broken by the force applied by Otto’s claw alone.
At this point, it was difficult for Tiamat to continue speaking.
Meanwhile, Otto nodded to Sofia, prompting her to continue.
The Half-Elf wasted no time; her strange, glowing magical energy seeped out of her body and wrapped around Black Dragon Otto.
Eventually, under her control, the magic energy took on a cone shape and pressed against the bump on Black Dragon Otto’s shoulder.
At the same time, Sofia didn’t forget to tell Silver Dragon Otto, “Big dumb dragon, you cooperate from the inside!”
Currently, Silver Dragon Otto couldn’t even speak due to the immense pressure, so he could only nod to Sofia with great effort. Afterward, he rallied the last of his strength and began working in sync with Sofia, one from the inside and one from the outside, to deal with the protrusion.
Before long, the bump on Otto’s shoulder disappeared, leaving a small hole.
Through this small hole, one could see the lava flowing beneath the dragon armor and Otto’s scales that had turned red from being burnt.
With more effort from Sofia and Otto, the hole’s size continued to expand. Unfortunately, Sofia’s recovered magical power was soon depleted under the incessant release.
By the time Sofia had no choice but to stop outputting her magic power, the shattered opening on the dragon armor began reclosing.
Tiamat, who was far away, clearly noticed this and initially looked worried. However, once she saw the situation, her expression immediately turned smug again.
If her neck wasn’t being grasped so tightly, she certainly would have made a few snide remarks at this moment.
