Chapter 1636: Chapter 319: Dragon Knight Lancelot

“—Don Quixote.”

Aiwass decided to accelerate the process and raised his hand to command.

However, at that mont, the Knight Heavenly Departnt stood up.

“I’ll go.”

Once again transford back into Lancelot, the Knight Heavenly Departnt walked to Aiwass’s side and patted him on the shoulder.

“Long ti no see, Aiwass.”

The Knight Heavenly Departnt laughed heartily: “I didn’t expect we could still fight side by side… Oh, you’re a knight too, brother!”

His latter words were directed at Don Quixote.

Even though Don Quixote wasn’t wearing armor, just a grey robe, the Knight Heavenly Departnt saw through to his knightly heart.

Then, the Knight Heavenly Departnt looked at Aiwass again, using his left hand clad in tallic armor to firmly pat Aiwass on the back.

“You’ve worked hard enough,” the Knight Heavenly Departnt laughed heartily, “It’s ti for us to shine too!”

Aiwass looked at the unrestrained and boisterous smile of the Knight Heavenly Departnt.

For a mont, he couldn’t tell… whether the one speaking to him was Lancelot or Hayna.

“…It’s not your turn to sacrifice yet.”

An older and more solemn voice echoed from behind them.

The White Dragon shook its body, spreading its wings frozen in ice once more, lifting its proud head.

“The Path of Authority requires soone to succeed it, Lancelot.”

Like a stern and reliable leader, the unsmiling Silver-Crowned Dragon made a not-so-funny joke: “You’re not thinking I endured the humiliation of becoming a pet to return to the Seat of the Pillar God, are you?”

Hearing this, even the Knight Heavenly Departnt was taken aback.

Even Aiwass was sowhat surprised.

When he saw that small White Dragon, he thought the Silver-Crowned Dragon intended to defeat the Red Calamity and reclaim the Seat of the Pillar God on the Path of Authority—

But if the Silver-Crowned Dragon didn’t intend to return to the Pillar God’s seat, why did it deliberately release the Red Calamity? Why did it allow itself to be defeated and live incognito?

It seed like the Crown Lord intended to cleanse itself of its corrupted self in this way.

This could almost be considered a sort of soul “dialysis.”

However, at this mont, the Silver-Crowned Dragon spoke words beyond comprehension:

“Arthur has fallen to this point, soone must be responsible. Failing to guard the Red Dragon well was my dereliction; and the original sin of all this was that gaze we cast into the void in the past.

“When we pursued supre power from civilization, the seeds of the void had already seeped in. Hence, in the past, I cut away my unclean self through the thod of excision… But why didn’t I destroy it completely?”

“…Because,” Aiwass, familiar with ritual magic, imdiately understood the Crown Lord’s thinking, “if one among you dies, the other will complete it. Like recalling those already lost mories. Only sealing it can maintain the separation.”

Just like the relationship between the Great Sage and the Supre Heaven. Like the ritual of a snake preying on its tail.

Everything in the universe tends towards completeness.

Aiwass understood this truth too well—just as Aleister, having been excised from within him, gradually recalled the Heart of Devotion.

If the Red Calamity were killed, even without absorbing its fragnts… the Silver-Crowned Dragon would gradually “rember” the part of itself it had excised.

“However, such a seal is not lasting. Just as power is not eternal.”

The Silver-Crowned Dragon slowly said, “I thought it could exist forever…”

But now, the once void-tainted Red Calamity has beco a vessel of the void.

So how could the proud Silver-Crowned Dragon possibly sit on the Pillar God’s seat again?

If it directly defeated the Red Calamity, the complete Silver-Crowned Dragon might beco a vessel of the void. To hand over a complete Pillar God shell to the void is far too dangerous… Instead, it’s better to hand the Pillar God’s seat to the Red Calamity and defeat it once it loses control completely.

“—Oh believer, I am already the Unclean God!”

The Silver-Crowned Dragon raised its dragon head high, proclaiming forcefully, “Oh subject, I am already the Disqualified King!

“My most loyal knight, Lord Lancelot, heed my command!”

Upon hearing this, the Knight Heavenly Departnt’s gaze wavered for a mont.

“…My King.”

He lowered his proud head, kneeling on one knee before the Silver-Crowned Dragon.

Just like old tis.

“Rember, Lord Lancelot! This is the end of the era of ‘kingship’; this is the beginning of the era of ‘abdication’!

“I pass the crown into your hands, just as I once commanded you as the King of Avalon. Do not tarnish its glory!”

The White Dragon proudly raised its head.

The illusory silver-white crown upon its head gradually dissipated, then reford above Lancelot’s head.

Only the afterglow of the Path of Authority could be transferred in this way. Because power itself is a violence that can be transferred.

Seeing Lancelot receive this illusory symbol of the Pillar God, the Silver-Crowned Dragon finally nodded in satisfaction yet wistfulness.

It spread its wings, biting down on the Knight Heavenly Departnt before it, and threw Lancelot high into the air.

But at that mont, Lancelot suddenly flipped his body in the air, landing astride the White Dragon’s neck!

The White Dragon was montarily stunned, then beca furious: “Lord Lancelot, you—”

“—How can I watch as my forr lord and close friend head to the front lines and remain indifferent? Then my first command as the new king is to order you to go to the front lines with !”

Lancelot laughed heartily, raising the holy sword in his hand towards the Red Dragon and the First Generation Winged King: “If I die, soone else will succeed;

“If no one takes over, then let the Path of Strength be returned to all beings!”

The Silver-Crowned Dragon, hearing this, fell into a long silence.

—And silence is consent.

“Then hold on tight… my King.”

The White Dragon soared into the sky, sarcastically saying, “Don’t let throw you off.”

The next mont, the knight transford into a white streak, colliding with the dragon that had turned into a fortress.

“…It seems, they truly don’t need now.”

Aiwass sighed, gradually closing the Book of Law.

He felt a comforting sense of stability.

Previously, when Aiwass fought against the Abyssal Celestial Envoy, he had already unleashed Lost Paradise. And Lost Paradise could only be used once in a short period.

If Aiwass truly needed to act this ti, he could only offer a few Great Sin Beasts for support…

Fortunately, he was not alone.

Fortunately, he was neither the hero destined to defeat the Demon King, nor the hero destined to save the world.

This world is resplendent with stars, and the night without The Sun still reveals the path ahead.

It’s just…

“…The Red Calamity does have quite a presence.”

Aiwass looked at the Knight Heavenly Departnt, now the strongest Dragon Knight in the world, riding on the Silver-Crowned Dragon.

If the Knight Heavenly Departnt is seen as the future Pillar God… then this round with the Red Calamity is simultaneously a battle with the ‘dead Pillar God,’ ‘past Pillar God,’ ‘present Pillar God,’ and ‘future Pillar God.’

“It really lets him legitimately enjoy a taste of the Supre Heaven treatnt.”
