〖 Interference force, that’s what I call this power. You humans probably call it mental power or something to that effect 〗 Negary’s draconic features gradually shrank as he returned to a humanoid appearance.

〖 Strictly speaking, this should be a power that only remnant souls can possess 〗 Negary continued as his gaze randomly swept across his surroundings: 〖 After all, the [Origin] controls the soul, and the soul remains stable while the [Origin] exists, making it almost impossible to produce interference force 〗

〖 And yet your interference force surpa.s.ses even mine, an Evil Spirit 〗 Negary spoke with certainty: 〖 This must surely be the ability you obtained from the Last G.o.d 〗

〖 Let me guess. Earlier you had said that the larger the territories that the Last G.o.d controlled, the stronger he would become. Combined with how much you reject the Church of Divine Grace, a conclusion can be drawn 〗 Negary a.n.a.lyzed: 〖 Your source of power is probably something similar to ‘faith’〗

〖 The more citizens that are dependent on you, the more powerful your mental power would become. Am I right, Eldridge!? 〗 Negary abruptly turned around and swung his hand with his palm in the shape of a knife, something in the air resisted him, then quickly fell back to silence.

〖 In other words, this is the moment when you are the weakest 〗 if Negary had a.s.sumed correctly, then this was indeed the time when Eldridge was weakest. After all, with Royas’ invasion of Interkam failing, the Royas people’s support of Eldridge wasn’t as p.r.o.nounced as it was before: 〖 And that’s why you are hiding 〗

Negary’s words were full of contempt as if Eldridge’s current behaviour was unfit for his status as a king. At this moment, Negary had conveniently ignored the fact that he had also concealed himself and ambushed Eldridge earlier. It was as if being shameless and blind to their own faults were essential qualities for those in a superior position.

Negary’s words contained a certain level of psychological suggestion. Although he didn’t know whether it would work on Eldridge or not, as long as it could affect his emotions even just a little bit, that would bring Negary closer to victory.

For opponents who were essentially just food, Negary could employ strategies that roused their spirit and force them to exert more of their potential, which would make their souls more delicious to consume. But Eldridge, whether Negary wanted to admit it or not, was an ent.i.ty on the same level as he was, so Negary wouldn’t play such a dangerous game and would use every means he could to kill him as soon as possible.

This way, the situation gradually became deadlocked, Eldridge hid in the shadows and occasionally used interference force to attack and ambush Negary, but didn’t make any big moves out of fear that Negary would find him.

As Negary had said, his power came from faith. The faith of each person that supported him would directly reinforce him and make his mental power stronger, eventually growing to a terrifying degree. But now that the invasion of Interkam had failed after 10 years of fighting, his power had reached rock-bottom. Comparing individual strength alone, he was definitely no match for Negary right now.

It might be easy to say that you are inferior to someone, but how many people could actually admit such a thing? Especially for people like Eldridge who had once stood at the peak of the continent, achieving success that far surpa.s.sed any other king of Royas and attaining great glory. However, it was he who defined this glory and not the other way around, for these kinds of people, they themselves are powerful.

Even if Eldridge didn’t have his excellent background, he would still have achieved success, but there would have been differences in the magnitude of success.

〖 How cautious! 〗Negary walked towards the group of Ancestral Spirit knights who had pa.s.sed out because of his willpower, grabbed one of their helmets, and crushed the helmet with a press of his bare hands.

Although this armor had fused with an Ancestral Spirit, without a wielder, the armor itself was still laughably weak against Negary’s dragon body.

He slowly rolled the fragments of the helmet into a tiny steel ball in between his hands, then threw it out like a shotgun sh.e.l.l, scattering the fragments all over the area. The stone walls all around were swiftly punched full of bowl-sized holes from the attack.

Perceiving the changes in the trajectory of the steel ball, Negary grabbed one of the knights and plunged his finger into the knight’s body. [Dragon’s Pressure] swiftly harmonized his surrounding rhythm as he uttered a foreign syllable: “Kielit!”

Some sort of power was infused into the knight’s body, who was then thrown by Negary to the side. The knight’s body started to inflate like a red balloon and burst, scattering his blood and flesh all around.

An invisible force appeared to repel the blood away, and Eldridge was finally forced to show himself. It wasn’t because of cleanliness that he did that, but because the power of [Dracotongue] was infused within the blood, so allowing it to contaminate him would only lead to an even worse result.

Negary didn’t know a lot of [Dracotongue], only 4 kinds in total. [Jliost], which meant ‘unstoppable’, capable of destroying everything that obstructed the user, which represented the peerless power of a dragon.

[Kielit], which meant ‘surging force’, capable of injecting one’s own power into various items, then manipulate the item through that power. Negary injected his power into the knight’s body and turned him into a live bomb. Since every bit of his flesh and blood contained Negary’s power, if Eldridge had been contaminated, he would be marked by the power and be at an absolute disadvantage when facing Negary.

In addition to these two syllables of [Dracotongue], there was also the [Deliwo] syllable that represented defence, and [Cioul] which represented flight, or rather, levitation. A total of four syllables.

Although these 4 syllables seemed simple, each one of them contained great power, even the seemingly most useless syllable for flight would become exceedingly powerful when used well.

“It seems like you’ve made up your mind to kill me” Eldridge’s face appeared somewhat gloomy. He didn’t ask Negary why he must kill him, if the other party’s intentions had been revealed, there was naturally no need to hesitate or prolong anything.

“Unleas.h.!.+ Seal of the Empire!” a huge interference force began to spread to their surroundings, altering everything little by little.

Normally, mental power or interference force manifested as a power that acted upon its surroundings like telekinesis, but Eldridge was displaying another use of interference force.

“My people believe in me, they believe that I can lead them to build a great Empire, an Empire belonging to the Royas people!!!” the scene around Eldridge began to change, what was originally a staircase had turned into a large plaza with people who donned uniforms gathered inside it.

“This is the expectation of each Royas citizen, and the miraculous power formed by their expectation is also my ideal country!!!” Eldridge stood among the crowd of people, but stood higher than the rest.

Negary felt the control of his [Dragon’s Pressure] over the surroundings dropping to nil, if he used [Respiratory Art], he would find that the surrounding rhythm had completely harmonized with Eldridge.

This was Eldridge’s power, one man turns into an army, one man stands as a country!
