"Gowther's abilities are truly terrifying."
"With infinite magic added, I can even change memories at will."
"I can turn an enemy who wanted to kill me into someone who would die for me in the next second."
Caesar looked at the unconscious Selene.
From her memories, he finally understood why she had become like this.
Between humans and dragons, there was no clear right or wrong.
Humans feared dragons and sought to slay them.
The dragons, once kind, had no choice but to raise their claws to survive.
"Let me try something."
"Let us see what happens when these abilities are combined."
Caesar extended his hands.
Light flowed into Selene's mind.
He began experimenting according to his will.
Selene quickly woke up.
When she saw Caesar, she clutched her head in terror.
"Do not kill me."
"I will be obedient."
Caesar confused her again.
He continued adjusting her memories.
"I am a novice."
"Please guide me."
"You rift."
"What do you think you are doing."
"Darling."
"I love you."
"Who are you."
"Why am I at Black Moon Mountain."
"How did I become a woman."
"Come on."
"Let us fight."
"…."
Caesar tried repeatedly.
The more he tried, the more alarmed he became.
Even if memories were altered, powerful beings could sense something was wrong.
For Selene, the effect was even more obvious.
However, when combined with infinite magic, the result was frightening.
Those whose cognition was altered felt nothing was abnormal.
Even their gender could be distorted without awareness.
They would believe this was how things always were.
They could even forget they were dragons.
This was no longer memory alteration.
It was complete cognitive distortion.
Of course, it had flaws.
If Caesar died, or infinite magic disappeared, everything would return to normal.
"Forget it."
"I do not have such twisted interests."
"A small modification is enough."
Caesar erased the excessive changes.
He implanted fear of himself into Selene's memory.
Once she awakened, hostility toward him would be impossible.
The fear alone would prevent her from ever opposing him.
That was sufficient.
"Wake up."
Caesar gently patted Selene's cheek.
Her eyes opened instantly.
When she saw Caesar, fear rose uncontrollably in her heart.
This man was terrifying.
Her attacks meant nothing to him.
He was like an unscalable mountain.
"I can teach you Water Wing Magic."
"I have no intention of becoming your enemy."
Selene spoke carefully.
"I already have what I wanted."
Caesar replied calmly.
"This world is filled with abnormal magic."
"What happened here."
"I injected more magic into magic rich Elentia."
Selene swallowed nervously.
"I wanted to see what this world would become."
Caesar paused briefly.
No wonder this place was overflowing with magic.
He had not reached this part of the story before.
"Forget it."
"It is not my world."
"There is no reason to worry."
His goal was already achieved.
Caesar looked at Selene.
Her body stiffened instantly.
Fear rippled through her eyes.
"You can stay here."
"Do not think too much."
"Running away may be shameful."
"But sometimes it works."
"Do not go to Giltina."
"Find a quiet place."
"Enjoy the moon."
"Drink wine."
"That is enough."
Caesar raised his hand.
Magic surged outward.
A sphere of water formed.
It expanded into a water ring.
On the other side stood the Magic Array Dragon Guild.
"I am leaving."
"Your words are sealed."
Caesar stepped into the ring.
He returned to Giltina.
Selene finally relaxed.
She exhaled deeply.
She looked at the damaged hall.
She sighed softly.
"Does running away really help."
She smiled bitterly.
"I only want the era of dragons to end."
"I want to live well as a human."
Her subordinates returned.
They looked disheveled.
Selene recalled Caesar's strength.
"Maybe following him is not so bad."
"If something happens, he can step forward."
"Then I can simply enjoy the moon and wine."
The thought took root in her heart.
She no longer sought domination.
She wanted reliance.
…
"What did you say."
Elefseria stared in disbelief.
He roared loudly.
Caesar picked his ear.
"I killed the Wood Dragon God."
"The Water Dragon God integrated into human society."
"He will not cause trouble."
"The Moon Dragon God left this world."
"She settled elsewhere."
"She will not interfere with Giltina."
"That makes three."
"Ignia is simple."
"But the Gold Dragon God."
"I found nothing about him."
"That is normal."
A water ring opened nearby.
Selene stepped out.
She wore a new elegant kimono.
"The Gold Dragon God Viernes cannot truly be fought."
"He is both existent and nonexistent."
"He is a concept."
"Selene."
Elefseria stood abruptly.
His staff cracked under his grip.
"I did not come to see you."
Selene spoke coldly.
"I came for him."
Caesar blinked.
"Me."
Selene smiled softly.
She knelt before Caesar.
Her hands pressed to the floor.
She bowed deeply.
"My lord."
"I wish to follow you."
"I will cook."
"I will clean."
"I will do any task."
"Please accept me."
Caesar froze.
He was speechless.
He had only planted fear.
Yet somehow.
Selene wanted to become his attendant.
