The artifact in Olax's hands surprised Sven, Marlis, and Osvald as well as puzzled them. They were skeptical that so artifact, though special, could defeat one of the strongest beings in the universe.
"I understand that you can't believe it, although you're generally right. The Last Seal cannot really do anything to the Naless King, however, it has other uses." Olax said quietly as he glanced at the pyramid spinning inside the cube.
"The Last Seal has two steps or rather two ways in which this unique artifact can be used. First, the target can be sealed, then using all the energy of the artifact, it can be destroyed by causing an explosion of devastating power." Olax explained.
"I see... You want to use The Last Seal to keep Naless King from escaping, right?" Marlis asked with a serious expression.
"Well, that's only one outco. Look, if you use The Last Seal imdiately against Naless King, he will easily destroy it with his chaotic energy. However, fighting against with Arox, he'll lose a lot of power. He will be at death's door, perhaps like us, then it will be ti to use The Last Seal." Olax spoke coldly.
"Hahaha, now I get it!" Osvald grinned, "You will weaken him, lock him in The Last Seal, and then blow him up! That's how you defeat the Naless King himself!"
"Osvald, sotis you think faster than others, you know how to surprise." Olax said with a slight smile on his face, "However, you were wrong about sothing. The one who uses the artifact will be Sven."
Sven nodded quietly, fully understanding his task.
"Hmm...? Why Sven? I an... I'm glad you're entrusting him with such an important mission, but wouldn't it be easier to use the artifact yourself?" Osvald asked with a confused expression.
"Agh... Osvald, you never change." Olax shook his head with a bitter smile, "Obviously I would like to do that, but it takes too much energy to activate an artifact. I'm more than certain that by the end of the battle with the Naless King, I will be completely drained. In that case, I won't even make the artifact glow."
"Ouch... I understand..." Osvald muttered, scratching his cheek with an awkward look.
Olax was silent for a while before he said, "Sven, do you understand your task or do you have any questions?"
"No. I understand and am ready to complete my task." Sven said with a deadly serious look.
'Unbelievable... I've never seen Sven so serious... Has he changed that much since the first Great War?' Wain muttered with a thoughtful expression.
'Fine. You're as fully committed as ever. Well, now let's talk about sothing else, before the war begins we need you to resolve a few issues." Olax said calmly, handing The Last Seal to Sven.
"I just realize how important this is. Don't worry, I won't let you down." Sven said calmly, looking intently at Olax as he took The Last Seal.
Olax smiled, "Yeah, I know that. I'm sure after a while you'll be equal to or Arox. Hahaha, never thought I'd say this, but you are the epito of perfect."
Olax smiled as he touched his chin, "You haven't failed a single mission, reached the God Stage faster than anyone else, have superior abilities and what's more, you have a great team. Frankly, I'm even a little jealous, my way to the top was filled with obstacles while your way is a clear road without a single pebble in the way."
"You overestimate . There were obstacles in my way, too, but I was lucky enough to encounter small pebbles that you can just blow away, while you had to go through the mountains." Sven said calmly as he moved The Last Seal into the ring.
"Hahaha, in addition, you're also very humble." Olax laughed, "Alright, now let's get down to business. I want you to go to the one space where the Dragons of the group are, the Azure Tail."
"Azure Tail...? If I'm not mistaken, they left Dragon World recently, didn't they?" Marlis asked.
"You're right. Anyway, your job is to eliminate them. For all we know, Azure Tail has been trying to get all the Dragons to side with the Naless King, and they say they almost succeeded in talking to the Progenitor about it." Olax said calmly, without tension.
"Damn... Looks like they might have actually made a difference..." Osvald muttered as his eyes went wide.
"Well, it helped that there are those among the Dragons who support us. They couldn't talk to the Progenitor because they were interrupted by the Black Whip. These guys are their real adversaries. In any case, we need to get rid of Azure Tail to avoid possible problems." Olax shrugged his shoulders.
Wain watched them like a ghost, listening intently to their every word. Oddly enough, he was unaware of almost anything he heard.
'Damn... It's obvious I didn't know what was going on behind the scenes with my opponents, but so far I've learned a lot. Only Azure Tail and Black Whip seem familiar to ... Hmm... So why weren't they involved in the war? Am I about to see Sven with Marlis and Osvald destroy a whole group of Dragons?' Wain pondered as it all seed rather strange to him, especially Sven, who looked not like a human but like a real living weapon.
"Do you know where they are?" Marlis asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.
Olax shook his head, "No. It's your job to find them. However, I'm not forcing you into every space with a high concentration of energy, as I have sothing that can help you."
Olax's ring flashed again as a massive blue flake appeared in his hand, strong and sharp.
"Oh... Now I get it. Well, in that case, I can easily find where they're hiding. Do we have to keep soone alive?" Marlis asked calmly, taking the scales in her hands.
"No, that won't be necessary. Get rid of every mber of the Azure Tail to eliminate the possibility of the Dragons helping the Naless King." Olax waved his hand nonchalantly.
