Scenes of bloodshed, pillaging, and merciless slaughter became a grim ritual on the once-flourishing lands of the Seven Kingdoms. Cities that once sparkled with prosperity and trade now lay in smoldering ruins. The soil drank deep of blood, and the air hung thick with the stench of decay. The law of survival of the fittest was no longer a theory—it was a brutal reality carved into the land itself.
Amidst this chaos, the followers of the infamous "Black Dragon Monster" were forged through relentless war and carnage. Battle-hardened and merciless, only those who endured became legends. The fallen, countless and nameless, were swallowed by time—forgotten before the echoes of their screams faded.
Human resistance in the Seven Kingdoms crumbled. Entire towns and cities gold with its strongest vanished overnight. Villages once filled with song became graves marked by silence. Most of the survivors had perished, their defiance extinguished in ash and fire. Those fortunate—or cursed—enough to survive fled across the scorched plains, desperately seeking sanctuary. Whispers of a fragile peace, a sanctuary forged between Queen Laysa of the Del Kingdom and the Black Dragon, spread like wildfire. It was a desperate hope… and the only one left.
The Del Kingdom, once a modest and overlooked realm, ascended like a phoenix cloaked in golden flame under the reign of Queen Laysa. Her rule was not merely one of command, but of conviction—her decisions swift, her will unyielding. In a world collapsing into madness, she stood as an unshakable pillar amidst the storm.
Where others starved, her people feasted. While distant kingdoms buckled beneath famine and fear, not a single soul within Del's borders went to sleep on an empty stomach. Astonishingly, even with the unrelenting tide of refugees pouring in from every corner of the Seven Kingdoms, there was always enough—grain silos full, bakeries lit day and night, hearths warm and brimming. It was as though she had foreseen this dark tide long before it came, preparing in silence for the flood that would one day beg sanctuary at her gates.
And when they came, she welcomed them—not with scorn or suspicion, but with open arms. She threw wide the gates of her kingdom to the broken and the lost, offering them not just food and shelter, but the most sacred gift of all in those days: safety.
For while the rest of the kingdoms was gnawed upon by the teeth of chaos, the Del Kingdom alone remained untouched. The dreaded Black Dragon—whose presence alone could raze cities—and its monstrous horde skirted Del's borders as if repelled by some invisible decree. Not a single claw crossed her lands, not one shadow of the beast dared stretch over her skies.
It was as if an unseen wall of divine will protected her domain, or as though the Black Dragon itself had sworn an unspoken vow: this place is not to be touched.
Her promises were never empty. They were iron-clad and carved into reality with the strength of her spirit. In the eyes of the people—noble and peasant alike—she was more than a sovereign.
She was providence.
To the weary and displaced, it felt like divine providence.
The monstrous beast that had drowned an entire seven kingdoms army in one fell, cataclysmic attack—a city swallowed whole, erased from the map by a single overwhelming force—and the creatures that devoured anything in their path, avoided Del's borders as if repelled by some unseen hand. The contrast was staggering. Where the rest of the kingdoms descended into madness, the Del Kingdom flourished.
The people began to call it The Holy Land.
Due to the significant increase in population, the borders of the Kingdom of Dal began to expand unprecedentedly…
Nobles offered up their ancestral lands without hesitation. Mercenaries, knights, and battle-scarred soldiers knelt before the Queen and pledged themselves. Farmers and craftsmen, widows and orphans—they gave all they had to serve under her banner. Her name spread not just with respect, but with reverence. She was no longer just a monarch. She was the last light in a world swallowed by shadow.
Queen Laysa was hailed as the Savior of the Seven, the Shield of the Meek, and The Empress of Dawn.
As her influence surged, entire legions defected to her side. Former kings, broken and hollowed, bowed to her authority with trembling hands. They no longer had coin, nor the strength to fight—only fear, and the hope that maybe, just maybe, her light could shield their remnants from the storm.
No one dared question how such a peace with the Black Dragon had been secured. None spoke of what she might've offered… what sacrifices were made behind closed doors in order to keep the beast at bay.
But every survivor, every child who slept through the night without fear, every woman who no longer clutched a blade beneath her pillow, every man who could now look up at the sky without dread—owed her more than words could capture.
And still, no soul alive could answer the one question whispered in shadows:
What truly passed between Her Majesty the Queen… and the Black Dragon that obeyed no man, no god, and no law but its own?

A dozen days later, in the palace of the Sunset Mountains, I opened my scarlet eyes, and the feast was finally over.
It was still the same three heads, no more grew, and the body size became 87 meters, with no major changes in appearance.
I began to look at the panel to see if there were any changes in my talent.

I felt very magical when I looked at these two abilities.
The ability of space-time teleportation is somewhat similar to the teleportation in this world. The difference between this magic and ordinary teleportation magic is that it is a cross-plane teleportation.
So it cannot be said that many creatures can do it, but there are definitely quite a few.
For example, the abyss devils, demons, and angels in heaven can do it, otherwise why would countless of them run around in different planes every day?
But different creatures use it in different ways. Demons generally need sacrifices and through Abyss Contract to teleport, and angels' own wings are a way to cross planes.
The feathered serpent used teleportation to leave this material world before, and it has the same characteristics as angels.
But knowing and being able to teleport are two different things. Some weak demons can't reach the plane they want to go to through teleportation.
After all, the rules of the plane crystal wall are not a joke; otherwise, the demons in the abyss would have been eager to descend on the material planes to burn, kill, and plunder.
But my own space-time teleportation has many more advantages than the teleportation in the other planes, and it does not require the consumption of magic power or any sacrifices.
All I need is my own extended power. I have too many extended powers. The Seed of Distortion, Soul Chain, and Void Blood are manifestations of this power, which means that I can appear next to my followers with these powers in effect at any time.
This ability doesn't seem very powerful—it's just teleportation magic—but one has to know that even gods can't teleport so arbitrarily. Otherwise, there wouldn't be creatures like angels or unicorns as agents of gods.
It will be much more convenient in the future!
I reflected that it appeared as though numerous planes were signaling to me, and those infinite resources would ultimately transform into my personal ingredients.
The talent of the Radiant Force Field just made up for one of my own shortcomings. Although the feast is an all-around enhancement and my spirit is also extremely powerful—ordinary mental spells can't affect me at all—the last time the feathered serpent hung on the reincarnated angel, that strange mental magic did affected me.
So far, super speed recovery has only been able to heal physical wounds.
It was super helpful for dealing with mental and soul damage.
I directly turned on the Radiant Force Field, but my body didn't glow or anything.
But I obviously felt that my mental state was much better, and a very comfortable breath came from my body.
I knew that this was caused by the first time I activated the Radiant Force Field. I might not feel so comfortable after getting used to it.
I enveloped my body with the Radiant Force Field and am currently experiencing its effects. I have resolved to maintain it in active mode on a daily basis moving forward.
The mental energy consumed in this way is not worth mentioning with my second profession 'Mountain Believer.' It is not as fast as its recovery speed.
Just activate it normally to prevent some evil guys from attacking me with mental attacks.
As for who to treat? Let's save it for now and use it first.
My blood 'donation' control talent can be used to treat other creatures, but it has basically not been used. It is a skill to survive, but it doesn't matter if they can't survive.
Of course, if it is a very important follower, I am still willing to help—just like Tursun, a die-hard follower. It's a pity to lose him.
I thought about it and felt in a good mood.
Then I came to a space deep in the palace and turned into a dragon man.
After entering, the unicorn Westbey was stroking a small tree in a daze. These were the few small trees and some strange flowers and grasses that I had spawned here after I first obtained the ability of the Forest Friend.
"It seems that you have recovered well!" I looked at the unicorn, and her forehead seemed to have recovered a little bit.
"You've become stronger again." Westbey's clear eyes turned back to look at me in front of her.
"So you can never escape from my palm!" I stretched out my ferocious dragon claws with some evil taste and hooked the other's chin.
Westbey couldn't understand this action. She still looked at me slowly and then spoke, "Actually, I'm curious that although dragons are lustful, true dragons are higher creatures after all, but you seem to be particularly..."
At this point, Westbey didn't know how to describe it, but she continued to look at me without saying anything.
I didn't care at all. It can't be said that this is a very pleasant thing. Is it wrong for me to want to have fun with a sexy girl?
Moreover, the unicorn Westbey is different from other creatures. She is a very pure celestial creature with a simple mind and a hot body. It can almost be said that she is a perfect female creature.
It would be unreasonable not to bully the other party. And unlike Shea and Laysa, Westbey is a celestial creature unicorn, and her body tolerance is extremely strong force.
I could be wilder with her. After all, when I was excited, I was afraid of tearing Laysa or Shea in half, but Westbey was much better.
I can have fun!
Without saying much, I began to release my desires. I also covered Westbey with the Radiant Force Field. At this time, the flowers in the room seemed to shyly close their petals...
