Chapter 1104 Lesson Learned.
The concept the fountain of life made was very powerful but it couldn't control it yet. That meant t couldn't become a Sovereign of life. It is a powerful creature that can already kill Origin gods but it will die as a titan because it bit more than it could chew. That would be very pitiful and it didn't want that for itself. So it sought to empower its inner world and grant it control over the concept. That's why it came to this plane.
The Fountain of life said after understanding its motives and purpose, "The Life crystal is very important to me. That tiny Warrog girl threatened my chances of getting it so I killed her. You are threatening it now so you must die."
Ragnarok said with glee, "Is that so? Then bring it on. I am not going anywhere." Ragnarok said with glee.
He is fit and ready for battle. His body has fully recovered. The dragon flames have been devoured and the cracks on his body healed. The crystalline pillars on his back have grown brighter. Their blue light shone brightly against the black and red bone armor that they were attached to. He can go for another round of fighting without any issue.
He even moved closer to the fountain of life in his eagerness to start fighting but the fountain of life jumped back from him. It kept a safe distance from him so Ragnarok stopped chasing after it. He focused the devouring power of his tails on his environment. It made the crystalline pillars on his back glow brighter.
The changes going on with Ragnarok as he devoured the world did not elude the eyes of the fountain of life. It could see and understand that its chances of getting the life crystal are getting smaller and smaller the brighter the crystalline pillars on Ragnarok's back get. It made it want to rush forward to stop Ragnarok but something was stopping it from moving forward.
The fountain of life regarded him silently. It has forgotten the name of the tiny Warrog girl that it killed but it can't forget that it is Ragnarok that made it forget the tiny Warrog girl's name. Something is clear to it now and that is that it must not get close to Ragnarok. So it circled Ragnarok while keeping its distance. Then it fired a beam of dragon fire at him.
The dragon breath came in the form of white flames in a straight path to Ragnarok. He didn't dodge. He used one of his tails to block the lance of fire. The reddish-black tail clashed with the dragon breath without an explosion. There was no explosion because the tail swallowed the fire as it came.
Ragnarok advised with good intentions, "This isn't going to work. Devouring trumps life and devouring trumps creation."
The fountain of life knows that. It already tried to use the law of creation and it failed. So it is not a surprise to it that its dragon breath failed too. But it is out of options to attack.
It is a dragon of life and they are the weakest type of dragons when it comes to attack power. It is best at healing and manipulating life. Its concept will be powerful against other beings that don't devour everything that comes close to it.
Ragnarok continued to advise, "Your concept has been nullified so if you want to stop me, you will have to get close to me physically. How about that? Don't you want the life crystal anymore?"
He is trying to goad the fountain of life into getting close to him. It is not that he doesn't have range attacks, but he can't use them now that he is focusing on destroying the plane. So he wants the fountain of life to come close enough for him to take a good bite out of it.
But the fountain of life didn't come closer. It made him frustrated and also proud of himself. His concept, bottomless abyss, will eventually turn him into a bottomless abyss.
At this point, it is already difficult to harm him since everything around him gets devoured. It would be very difficult to kill him as an Origin god when he literally becomes the bottomless abyss. He is looking forward to it.
Ragnarok attacked when the fountain of life didn't try anything else. He opened his mouth and exhaled. A bright blue beam of energy came out of his mouth and struck the fountain of life right in the chest. It caused the crystalline pillars on his back to dim but it also threw the great white dragon aside in a fiery explosion of fire and earth so it is worth it.
He rushed after the fountain of life immediately to take advantage of its situation. But the dragon took to the air before he got close. He could chase after it but that will mean he has to stop devouring the plane. So he remained on the ground.
The fountain of life took one more look at Ragnarok. It said, "A dragon never forgets. We never forget."
Then it flew away. Ragnarok watched it go for a while before he started to laugh.
He shouted at the retreating dragon, "Where is your pride? Show me your dragon pride. I stand here to end a world. Hopes and dreams shall end today. Many lives will end. Will you let your hope die here today too? Will you watch as I bring this plane to oblivion with your hope with it? Or will you fight if only for your pride?"
The fountain of life didn't reply. It has learned many valuable lessons in its short encounter with Ragnarok so It just flew away and entered its sinkhole in the north. It chose defeat over death.
Ragnarok considered chasing it but decided against it. The fountain of life will just run away again. Instead of going on a wild goose chase, it is much better to destroy the plane. Anyone that wants to stop him will have to come to him.
