Chapter 166: The Dragon and Louise's heart
In the spirit realm, The Royal Dragon Guild's representatives had gathered.
The Dragon's seat was empty, for they hadn't found a proper replacement after all those years. However, in the recent era, the dragons had a new plan.
A plan to get the best version of The Dragon and take back what was theirs — the adaptation.
"He's calling us."
"Does it mean that he's succeeded?"
"Probably."
The dragons left their hall and headed to a certain temple located on the highest mountain of their spiritual lands. No one could enter that mountain except for chosen dragons. In the past, a certain blue dragon wanted to break that rule and see what was inside the temple—to become The Blue Dragon herself—and miserably lost all her prominence and levels, for all dragons punished her.
Inside that temple, a familiar chaos pool resided.
The dragons had luckily got their hands on that element. Moreover, they had the human with that power locked inside that temple. He was one of the humans with peak humanity bodies, whose element was the chaos element. Of course, he had caused a lot of mess in the past, but no man lived forever.
He was forced down by no one other than The Oracle.
The dragons spoke with that woman and offered their temple to keep the man sealed.
In this way, they wanted to make a connection with someone above the humans. And in the latest era, the dragons decided to try a new plan — to get the chaos element for themselves.
The Dragon selected a representative to enter that temple.
And that man had been locked here for too long, unable to even witness the news of The Dragon's death.
His main task was adapting to the chaos element and devouring the human with it. He had been enduring torture worse than death for eons! Then, something happened in the world, as the chaos element started accepting him… It was not too long after Leon became Eros.
The temple's doors opened by themselves.
And from the inside, a naked dragon came out.
He was in a humanoid form, with vast black and gray wings sprouting from his back. He had two tails, golden eyes, and fine skin. His long black hair swayed behind him as he inhaled the fresh air.
"I'm The Dragon."
The dragons before him knelt.
The Dragon carried on. "I've seen our dragon race's past. The fates of previous readers and humanity's sins… We will tear down them all, including the betrayals of our race. I lost all my levels, so I must level up… Announce the war to all spirit races."
"As you wish!"
Another massacre unfolded.

Leon stroked Louise's hair, even though she was burning.
He couldn't care about his wounds and had his high potions in the inventory, so nothing bad would happen to him! He wanted to be with her as it was clear that Louise had quite a drama in her heart.
Soon, Leon heard a scream.
[Die!]
It was undoubtedly Louise's voice.
She sounded so much different, though.
[I can't be killed.]
And then, Amaterasu's voice slipped into his mind.
Leon was bemused but soon started connecting the dots. He could either miss or be perfectly on the spot when it came to his beloveds' plights. This time, Leon saw through Louise's problem perfectly and understood that Amaterasu and Louise were in a fight.
'She must have grown to hate Amaterasu at some point.'
As though those words were key to Louise's heart, Leon's consciousness entered her.
Soon, he was in a room where flames dominated the scene. This element brimmed Louise's heart, and Leon saw nothing but tongues of flames dancing around him.
He raised his eyes and gasped.
On his right side, Leon saw The Nine-Tailed Star. She had a mini-planet beneath her feet, from which nine tails like snakes sprouted.
Those were all in flames, hacking at Amaterasu.
Amaterasu floated with the sun behind her.
Everything melted in her presence except for Louise's nine tails. To fight against them, Amaterasu had to use her legs and fists.
It seemed they were in a stalemate.
"Stop it, you two!" Leon shouted and clenched his hands, his voice sounding angered.
His appearance froze the scene.
Louise and Amaterasu wheeled to him.
His adorable fox's pinkish hair fluttered bashfully as her cheeks flared up. She hadn't expected that just seeing Leon would turn her into an adorable woman, yet The Nine-Tailed Star had exactly turned into that kind of a woman. She was in a honeymoon phase, too, for it was the first time she interacted with Leon — other than watching him from Louise's heart.
After all, she hadn't assimilated with Louise's heart yet.
Thus, Leon's angered face and voice sliced her heart.
Amaterasu also was shocked to see him. She grew flustered as she never wanted her beloved to see that scene. And from how it looked, it didn't seem like her intent was clear. Amaterasu was on the defensive side all this time, wanting to come to a truce with The Nine-Tailed Star.
Thus, she was a step behind Louise.
Louise, or rather, her final memory, flew down and stepped before him.
She gave him her back and spread her arms, shouting. "I hate this woman, Leon! She's the cause of my pain and loneliness. Because of her, I was alone and couldn't trust anyone! If it weren't for you, I'd never feel any love and be a cold killer wandering the world without any purpose!"
Amaterasu's face scrunched, and she screamed. "We're both victims of Amaterasu Seat. It's clearly not a seat for us!"
"Shut up, you bitch! How often have you said that you love that name? Do you remember your own name after all this time?!" The Nine-Tailed Star growled and clenched her little fists, ready to fight this woman head-on.
Now that Leon was here, Louise was ready to go all out.
Leon stood baffled, not knowing what to say.
"Could you all… start from the beginning?" He asked.
