Chapter 163: Great Red's Warning
A man with twelve black wings on his back was looking at the sky with a grave expression.
Normally, nothing could be seen in that area of the sky, but he had used means to create a hole in the sky.
On the other side of the hole was the Dimensional Rift.
Just moments ago, he had detected an abnormal impact in the Dimensional Rift, causing him to rush over urgently.
After all, if problems occurred in the Dimensional Rift, it might cause issues across the three realms.
So, what problem had occurred in the Dimensional Rift?
The first possibility that came to his mind was that the Infinite Dragon God Ophis, in order to return here, had once again launched an attack against Great Red who occupied this place.
The clash between these two Dragon Gods could potentially destroy the world with a single misstep, so it was only natural for him to rush over in a panic.
But what would he do upon arriving? Intervene directly?
Don't be absurd—these were two supreme Dragon Gods. Would he risk his life by stepping in?
Of course, he would attempt to mediate through diplomacy, though the chances of success were exceedingly slim. Still, he had to try.
However, if the two were to truly engage in an all-out battle without restraint, Azazel, the Governor of the Fallen Angels, would desperately try to stop them.
And it wouldn't be just him—others would also rush to the scene. To protect their world, they would resolve to halt these two calamities, even at the cost of their lives.
Moreover, Azazel had recently been investigating information about the Infinite Dragon God, Ophis, and the findings weighed heavily on his heart.
This Dragon God, who had always acted alone, had now become the leader of an organization—one composed of dangerous individuals.
Thus, he grew deeply concerned about what these people might be plotting and what goals they aimed to achieve by using Ophis.
The tremors in the Dimensional Rift made him highly suspicious that this organization had begun to move.
Suddenly, a magic circle glowed brightly beside him, and a figure emerged.
"Yo, Sirzechs"
This was the current Maou Lucifer, Sirzechs Gremory—no, since he had become the Lucifer, he had to separate from the Gremory family, so he should be called Sirzechs Lucifer.
Therefore, the future head of the Gremory family could no longer be him, but would instead be inherited by his younger sister.
"How's the situation?"
Sirzechs, who had just arrived, asked in a low voice.
Currently, nothing could be seen through the hole in the sky, nor could any signs of battle be felt.
In other words, had the Infinite Dragon God been repelled again?
But it might not necessarily have been a fight between the Infinite Dragon God Ophis and Great Red—perhaps some accident had occurred in the Dimensional Gap itself.
"Don't know"
As he said, Azazel had also arrived less than a minute earlier and discovered that the Dimensional Gap had already quieted down.
The so-called Dimensional Gap, to put it simply, was the dimensional wall that separated the human world from Heaven and the Underworld—it was the boundary between dimensions.
It was said to be a world of nothingness—a void.
And now, he had opened a hole here, where it was easiest to access the Dimensional Gap. Great Red often flew through this area, so they were waiting for it to pass by and ask what had happened.
"On Heaven's side, I wonder if Michael noticed anything"
As for monitoring the Dimensional Gap, this angel was always vigilant and must have noticed the recent abnormal vibrations.
So, he would have immediately begun investigating the Dimensional Gap as well. The only question was whether he had encountered Great Red first and obtained information about the recent anomaly.
"We can only wait for Michael's notification. Hopefully, he'll bring us good news too"
Sirzechs responded with a sigh.
"I hope so"
Azazel also sighed.
Their sighs weren't because they thought Michael would withhold information or lie to them, even if he had news.
Their sighs were mainly because, among the three factions, they didn't know when true hatred could finally be set aside.
He, Sirzechs, and Michael were all committed to achieving genuine peace among the three factions, but each of their sides had hardliners and stubborn elements.
These people simply refused to accept the idea of peace; some even longed to reignite war and completely eliminate the other side.
"This time, it seems pretty quick"
Azazel made a somewhat pleased sound because the one they were waiting for was about to pass through the hole.
Then, a dozen or so seconds later, a figure appeared at the hole—a colossal being over a hundred meters long, a crimson giant dragon. That was one of the two Dragon Gods—Great Red.
"Great—"
"Mechanical invasion. Foe of Rahu's Seven Luminaries, evil god. Could not defeat. Has left."
Such words interrupted Azazel's attempt to call out.
The voice came from Great Red, resonating directly in their minds.
But couldn't it speak more clearly?
It was as if it had never communicated with anyone before, resulting in some kind of communication disorder that made it unable to speak smoothly.
Ah, it might very well be like that.
This True Red Dragon God Emperor had never paid attention to anyone, so it was possible it really had such a communication barrier.
Then why can't it stop and replenish some content?
You mean it just flies away like that?
Regarding this point, Azazel also has some speculations.
The current view on Great Red is that it continuously flies through the dimensional gap to maintain the stability of this space.
Therefore, it cannot stop, otherwise problems might occur.
So now many people don't want Ophis to return to the dimensional gap and regain control.
Because Ophis has been too exposed to this world and stayed too long, its way of thinking may have changed, and people fear it might cause issues if it returns to the dimensional gap.
"This is very bad, Azazel!"
Sirzechs' face darkened.
Although Great Red couldn't explain clearly, those words alone contained terrifying amounts of information.
First, the mechanical invasion, what exactly is it invading?
And this invasion is definitely not ordinary, beyond normal phenomena, even surpassing the previous three-way war.
After all, during the three-way war, Great Red showed no reaction at all.
Then there's the evil god [Rahu's Seven Luminaries] does this mean there exists an evil god named Rahu's Seven Luminaries?
This evil god just fought with Great Red, and Great Red actually couldn't defeat it?
This is terrifying!
After all, Great Red personally used the word "powerful enemy"!
"Hmm, it seems necessary to immediately convene the three-way conference"
But where should the three-way conference be held?
Azazel has a place in mind, where there's been some intelligence that has caught his attention recently.
However, he's currently investigating the Infinite Dragon God and doesn't have extra capacity to investigate that place in detail.
So this time, they'll hold the conference there and see what this Satan's sister is trying to hide.
