Chapter 364 Black Dragon, Giving Face to a Deity
Ouch.
That damned Black Dragon actually spanked her in front of Hammond, Erinna, Austin, the Young Dragon, and the other two Giant Dragons, and it hurt even through her War God armor.
War God armor should have made her impervious to any magic of a forbidden spell level, and even attacks from Sword Saints and Sword Gods couldn't breach its defense.
Her War God armor was a Divine Artifact, yet the Dragon Claw of the Black Dragon, with its ruler, could bypass its protective features and strike her directly.
Absolutely outrageous.
As Sophia was shocked by the power of the Black Dragon's ruler, her behind hurt again; the Black Dragon was still spanking her, and in a short while, her behind had been struck countless times by its ruler.
Ouch, it really hurts.
She was the Saintess of the Wisdom Holy Mountain in her past life, spanked by the Black Dragon, and reincarnated as the Saintess of the War God Holy Mountain, even cultivating diligently to become as strong as those who had condensed their own Divinity. Why was it that whenever she encountered the Black Dragon, she still got spanked?
Don't get her started on the fact that she was wearing divine gear.
Damn it, damn it, damn it!
How powerful was this Black Dragon that roamed the Human World?
It hurts so much.
Her butt was going to swell...
(༎ຶ෴༎ຶ)
She was the Saintess of War God Holy Mountain, how dared the Black Dragon do this?
Wasn't he afraid that War God Holy Mountain would mobilize the Knight Legion to retaliate in order to maintain her honor?
Luckily, the Black Dragon had a strong sense of measure; he was using a ruler to spank her, not his Dragon Claw directly, which earned him a little bit of goodwill from her.
Had it been any other Pureblood Giant Dragon, they certainly wouldn't have used a ruler but their Dragon Claws instead; Male Pureblood Giant Dragons were lecherous, and upon meeting a human girl like her, they would not hold back.
The Black Dragon using a ruler was his way of telling her that he only wanted to beat her, not take advantage of her.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Black Dragon, she was just a little one, the Saintess of War God Holy Mountain.
For any other Pureblood Giant Dragon, she wouldn't have thought this, but for the Black Dragon, it seemed a perfectly normal line of thought.
Previously, when the Judgement Scales adjudicated the Black Dragon, those princesses he had taken never suffered his violation; the Black Dragon always kept his distance while interacting with them.
"Stop, please stop... It hurts, it really hurts."
"Do you admit your mistake?"
"I didn't do anything wrong. Only you can hit me? I can't hit you back? What kind of bandit logic is that? Put yourself in my shoes, if someone beat you up and you became stronger later, when you meet them again, wouldn't you hit back?"
"I would hit back, but..." Black Dragon Lance smirked, "but, you see, I, the Black Dragon, am quite hypocritical and don't always bother with reason, so... when I ask you if you made a mistake, it can only be you who is wrong, not me."
Despicable!!!
Sophia gritted her teeth, hurt and furious.
Hammond, carrying the Book of Wisdom, flew in front of Black Dragon Lance; his silver hair danced in midair. As Divine Personnel of Mountain of the Goddess of Wisdom, he couldn't just watch the Black Dragon humiliate... okay... bully War Saint Mountain Saintess, Sophia.
After all, Sophia used to be the Saintess of their Wisdom Holy Mountain.
He had refrained from intervening earlier, thinking Sophia could suppress the Black Dragon with her own powers, but it seemed he was mistaken.
Sophia was strong, but the Black Dragon... seemed even stronger; this creature could even blast Deities with a punch...
Although it wasn't a Deity in true form, the feat was enough proof of the Black Dragon's might and his arrogant attitude that disdained Divinities.
"Enough, Black Dragon, Your Highness Sophia has already been hit so many times by you; even if she is at fault, you should know when to stop."
Hammond's gaze fell upon Sophia's face, which she played the part of with such authenticity that, had he not known the potency of the War God armor, he might have really believed the Black Dragon had hurt her.
Well played.
That was why he stepped in to intervene—a way to suggest to the Black Dragon that he might have hurt Your Highness Sophia, hoping the Black Dragon would be satisfied with his retribution and let her go.
From the conversation between Black Dragon Lance and Your Highness Sophia, it didn't seem like he intended to seriously harm her.
He just wanted to discipline her, that's all.
As if Lance hadn't heard him, he spanked Sophia a few more times with his ruler. It was only natural for him to bully the Temple Saintess who worshiped the War God since the War God had bullied him, right?
What the War God said was quite true.
Bullying the young was indeed interesting.
"Black Dragon, if you don't stop now, I'll have to use the Book of Wisdom to rescue Your Highness Sophia. I dare not release some of the overly powerful Divine Artifacts in the Book of Wisdom for fear of losing control, but if you don't heed my advice, then I have no choice but to show you the true divine power of the Book of Wisdom."
Woosh—
The pages of the Book of Wisdom fluttered, and above Hammond's head, visions appeared with various powerful creatures' phantoms flitting across the void, featuring mountains, waters, humans, demons, and a variety of Primordial Beasts, and it seemed even the Demon King...
Lance glanced at the Book of Wisdom in Hammond's hands, eyes glowing with greed. He wanted it.
Such a Divine Artifact as the Book of Wisdom... Black Dragon Lance felt it was destined for him.
Borrowing it for a little read shouldn't be an issue, right?
"Sophia, the War God armor on you isn't bad. Do you have any spare sets? Give me one, and our previous issues can be put to rest. What say you?"
"You attack me, and now you're after my War God armor? Do you really not fear retaliation from War God Holy Mountain?"
"I'm just negotiating with you. If I really wanted your War God armor, I would have stripped it from you already."
