Pov Stella (Spirit Queen of Illusion):
I was facing the entrance to Nix's Dungeon, this Dragon's head looks a lot like Arash, at least it has many of his characteristics minus the overly aggressive part of him.
"I didn't expect you to stay here." (I)
"I can say the same for you, but I know our tasks are the same." (Lorraine)
"Why do you keep Fairy Layla under surveillance?" (I)
"She's not the one I'm watching." (Lorraine)
I look at Lorraine, she's been my friend forever and she's also been friends with the previous Stella for millennia.
"I'm more interested in Zenos, the Fae is already someone I can understand, she's a lot like my mother with the only problem being her immaturity, nothing a few centuries of experience can't fix." (Lorraine)
"But your contractor is a big problem in many ways." (Lorraine)
I can understand her, all the Spirits know about the Faerie Goddess finding a Champion, but I must be one of the few who knows who that Champion really is.
"He's not just a mortal, he's also someone involved with many Gods, all this not to mention his identity as a Demigod at least until now..." (Lorraine)
"The Contract between them is not something normal, and the very existence of Zenos can be considered more important to Layla than my mother." (Lorraine)
"That can't be changed considering what Zenos has done for her." (I)
"I just want to watch him more and see if he has a chance of becoming an enemy one day." (Lorraine)
"..." (I)
I cannot go against this thought, this is also a concern that I have even if to a lesser extent.
As a Vampire and one day becoming a full Demigod, Zenos is basically immortal in a way far beyond normal Vampires, he's also very young, even though he's an Outsider he's not even 100 years old counting his previous life from what Arash told me.
Knowing what he will be like in a thousand or a hundred thousand years is something we cannot predict, the younger someone can be the easier it is for him to change, while those like us who have lived for so long do not change easily.
"You think too much, until this moment he has only demonstrated how important those around him are to him, the kind of change you fear will not happen." (I)
No matter how much a person changes over time, they never stray too far from the character they develop during their youth, their worldview may change, but not their personality.
"You must do your part, the Gray Elves are already on the move, leave things here as they are." (I)
"You might be right..." (Lorraine)

Pov Arash (Dragon Emperor):
"Haha hah hahahahaha..." (Rhaegal)
"Finding it hard to fight me Arash!?" (Rhaegal)
"Your power means nothing now just as it meant nothing in the past." (I)
"Do not be too proud of the power you have received from others." (I)
My Imaginary Realm was in pieces as it mixed with parts of Rhaegal's Imaginary Realm, light, and shadow scattered chaotically while the ground itself as well as the rules that make up this space are broken.
My body was covered in injuries just like the body of the fool in front of me, he prides himself on inflicting these measly injuries as I gouged out 2 out of 6 of his eyes while inflicting much more serious injuries on his body.
"You fought to the end, but the result will always be the same, your skull being crushed in my claws." (I)
"Let's end this now!" (Rhaegal)
"< Sun Guardian Dragon >" (Rhaegal)
"< Abyss Dragon's Claw >" (I)
The darkness and light surrounding it once chaotically mixed throughout this space now split into two sides with me as well as Rhaegal at the center.
The Darkness and Light in this space are the remnants of our two Imaginary Realms that were torn apart by the battle, but now each of us prepared a blow to once and for all decide victory.
Rhaegal absorbs its territory into its body to increase its explosive power, its 1600 meter tall body is covered in white metal armor while its body exceeds 2800 meters and its body gains more humanoid aspects by changing its posture.
It destroys space itself as it lunges at me, creating a miniature sun in one of its claws.
I, unlike him, used my Authority to gather all the murderous intent we released during our combat together with all the power stored inside, using all of this I open the Abyss of my Imaginary Realm from where a claw of Darkness larger than the body itself Rhaegal appears in front of him colliding with the miniature Sun causing an explosion that causes the Imaginary Space itself to crack to the point of almost breaking.
When the turmoil of energy passed Rhaegal without an arm and two wings on the same side as the missing arm, but I was also injured as one of the wings that was left of him became a blinding blade of light that pierced my heart at the same time my Soul, a very serious wound that made even my Aura unstable.
I used my superior strength to destroy that wing as my tail and his collided separating both of us by the force of the blow as a hole of view to the normal world opens with the complete destruction of the space in that area.
"You look... Cough... Cough... on the brink of death... Arash..." (Rhaegal)
"I still can... guhg!" (I)
My injury and his were serious but not enough to cause our deaths, even now I was just straining the power so as not to make my wounds worse and he must be struggling to remove the risks of my power corroding his wounds.
I so wanted to laugh at the deplorable state he was in as I rushed towards him to grab his Soul with my own hands, but this is not the time to get carried away with emotion yet.
"This fight is already over… before it even starts…" (Rhaegal)
"< May I be the Herald of Light >" (Rhaegal)
"< Daylight Deity >" (Rhaegal)
When he started talking his body returned to its normal size of 1600 meters, then Baldr's symbol on his chest glows in golden light while his horns break off forming a large ring of golden energy on his back.
I saw all my energy being blasted out of Rhaegal's body as his wounds were rapidly healing as his lost limbs grew back.
All the holes and cracks in the space around us were rapidly closing as the space around us becomes a blue sky with a golden sun, that sun being behind Rhaegal in the center of the ring on her back.
Her Aura grew more than (×5) taking everything as she pressed me, her victorious smile plastered on her smug face, I couldn't help but smile so wide it felt like splitting my head.
"Now you are mine to kill as you wish…" (Rhaegal)
"< Territory: Divine Realm >" (I)
"< Abyss Divine Dragon Realm >" (I)
My Aura as well as my Authority and Divine Power explode to the surroundings consuming all Divine power in the area, the blue sky turned red as Black Dragons made of pure darkness flew by the hundreds in large groups, and in the sky only one big golden eye filled with intent assassin and below me a Battlefield filled with all kinds of bodies with a large crack where blood was seeping in, a crack filled with Darkness whose depth was unknown.
When the space became mine again any and all connections to the outside were severed, just in case I felt the power of Akatosh Fluorine from my body to my wings before blending with the surrounding space creating an impossible escape cage.
Endless black energy rises from the bottomless Abyss below me healing my entire body as my Aura smashes the insect in front of me to the ground, the golden ring containing an equally golden sun is grabbed by a large claw like the one I created in the last attack, but this time much more realistic with a large jaw on the palm, this claw ripped this ring with a sun away from Rhaegal making him bleed all over his body.
"I've waited so long for you to use the Divine power Baldr bestowed on you." (I)
"As expected, you left it until the last moment, your pride wouldn't let you use another's power until you realized you couldn't defeat me?" (I)
"ARASH... LIKE YOU..." (Rhaegal)
"Finally I can crush your Soul with all my might and feast on your corpse... hahahahaha...." (I)

Pov Zenos:
I couldn't deal with any more problems right now, even if I had recovered my Mana and Spirit Energy, my mind was still exhausted from helping Layla and Nix, not to mention the pressure I felt during those two occasions on my Soul.
I told everyone to wait for me at the mansion and I didn't listen to anyone, there was no point hearing new problems if I hadn't finished solving the old ones, so I took a deep breath before entering the Communal Temple and stopping in front of the statue of the Dragon God Akatosh.
