Chapter 63 - 63: 062 One-Tenth of the Allies_l
At this point in the story, Otto could easily guess what would happen next.
Because of the soul magic developed by Moray, the Death Lord not only received an equal share of souls from Moray, but also an equal share of power.
However, the Death Lord not only wanted to be independent, he also wanted to surpass Moray, and that was not something that could be accomplished with just a small portion of the souls.
So he needed to obtain and devour other soul parts instead of merging them.
After all, the Death Lord did not want other souls to influence his own thoughts. In simple terms, all he wanted was the legendary power of the Witch Demon Moray.
“From then on, I fought the Death Lord many times…”
“You lost?”
Moray nodded and said helplessly, “Actually, in the beginning, I had the upper hand. After all, the soul volume of the Death Lord was only a fifth of mine. Even if I lost that part, my strength was still four times his, not to mention my countless undead army!”
“But the Magic-Repelling Armor was just too tricky. No matter how dangerous the situation, the Death Lord could always escape by relying on it.”
“Gradually, he also began to have his own undead army and even allied himself with other races and city-states. Soon, his forces surpassed mine, and because of the Magic-Repelling Armor, even if I used a legendary spell, it would be hard to achieve any effect.”
“So, I set my sights on these two foolish adult dragons…”
Finally getting to the point, Otto listened attentively while Moray continued, “A legendary physical attack is one of the few methods effective against the Magic-Repelling Armor, something not even a legendary Witch Demon can easily achieve.”
“I quickly thought of a solution, which was to use the bodies of the two dragons as my new bodies. With careful processing and refining, combined with my Soul Amplification, I could create two legendary Dragon Witch Monsters! With just some simple adjustments, using legendary-level physical attacks wouldn’t be difficult.
“Of course, if only 80% of the original soul was split equally, there would only be 40% of the original power left. That’s why I also need the souls of the two dragons as a supplement, even though their quality is average, they can barely make the final product reach the legendary level! And there’s also a large group of monsters’ souls as the final guarantee.”
It was indeed a very bold idea, as Moray said, his aim was not something as simple as a Bone Dragon.
He used his own soul as part of the raw material to create two powerful
Legendary Dragon Witch Demons.
“There should be True Dragons in the Dark Domain, right? Even if your plan succeeds, can you withstand their anger in the end?”
At Otto’s question, Moray sneered, “Why do you think I managed to live for nearly a thousand years? The number of dragons in the Dark Domain that dare to mess with me can be counted on one hand and who knows where they are hiding. ”
“Alright, let’s just assume you are very powerful!”
Poor Moray was being casually kneaded into various shapes by Otto, making it difficult for Otto to imagine just how strong this guy could be.
” If the Death Lord is really like what you said, then even if you hide on the surface, he would definitely find a way to locate and devour you!”
Otto laughed and continued, “I think I understand the meaning of self-preservation now. You are also a part of Moray’s split soul, right? So, now you are having a change of heart and seeking my protection?”
“You could say that. The teleportation portal that you destroyed was also the channel for the insurance link to work. After all, the range of the spell effect is not infinite, and now the channel is gone, I am free. To be honest, I don’t want to become a part of the main body fusion now…”
In a way, he and the Death Lord were quite similar, except that he admitted to being a part of Moray, but that was all.
Otto was somewhat reluctant to say, “But why should I offend a seemingly powerful enemy for you?”
If what he said was true, then Otto might have to face the Death Lord coming to his door, or another Moray who luckily won. Neither seemed easy to deal with.
Moray knew that this strange Silver Dragon Beast was not a kind-hearted person, and if he wanted to get something from him, he naturally had to pay something in return.
“Even though I am only a part of Moray’s soul, my memory is complete. Knowledge is the greatest wealth of a Witch Demon, and I believe that should be enough to pay for the corresponding reward!”
This was indeed true, and it was also time to find a better teacher for Sofia.
The little girl grew up quickly, and now Saru had nothing left to teach her. Moreover, he was no longer a match for her.
“Deal!”
Otto smiled and agreed, but in case something changes, like the Death Lord really coming to kill him, and he happens to not be a match for the enemy… Then sorry, some cooperation is meant to be canceled, and some allies are meant to be betrayed.
Of course, this is all based on the premise that the other party will come to kill him in a short period of time, and he has no power to fight back.
“So, some issues need to be clarified!”
Otto laughed and asked, “For example, how much of Moray’s total soul do you possess now?”
“Probably only one-tenth, or even lower than that number. In order to prevent me from leaving the Dark Domain, the Death Lord and his allies put a curse on me, making it impossible for my soul to ever leave the boundaries of the Dark Domain. ”
Moray angrily said, “Even though I tried many methods, this was my limit…”
Otto didn’t care about that. The weaker his strength, the easier it was to manage him.
What he cared about was the knowledge in Moray’s head. If he were indeed an undeniable legendary Witch Demon, as he claimed to be.”
Suddenly, Otto asked, “You should be able to open the teleportation portal to the Dark Domain, right…”
“Ha…maybe…”
Regarding this question, Moray began to play dumb again.
However, this time Otto didn’t continue to torment him, because Cassiopeia, who had been in a coma, finally woke up.
About Moray, he had plenty of time to deal with him.
Upon waking up, Cassiopeia tilted her head and vomited a large puddle of dragon blood and broken flesh, as if her internal organs were severely injured.
In her unconscious state, she had also thrown up the ring in her stomach, along with the blood and flesh, her eyes instantly brightening..
