Spoilers
I feel a massive spoiler giving on, so skip this if you want to avoid it! When the main character finally ascends to godhood as a demigod, he gains the Divinity of Rot. This divinity puts him with odds directly to one of the most abhorrent and powerful outer gods in existence as he wants this divinity. And he will used it cure someone who just happened to be sword a Famous Fanboy,' a soul entwined with fate and lore.

Argus's side should be more ominous than ominous; it seems that the development has been too smooth in the past few years.
As a result, the Voltan family has lost the vigilance they should have.
In the past, he would not rush in with the army so recklessly.
He thought he could solve everything with the Holy Shield of Brutality.
But now the family has lost nearly 30 brutal holy shields, and there are still so many elite fighters.
This responsibility needs to be borne by himself.
Suddenly, the sky was once again covered by a huge shadow.
A white heat ray followed.
The team was immediately shattered by the impact.
"It's that black dragon; he's coming again!"
"Damn it!"
The mount under Turom was directly frightened by the dragon's shadow, lying on the ground. No matter how the master drove him, he couldn't get up.
"Prepare the formation and defend quickly!" Turom shouted hoarsely.
But the dragon flew away after killing about forty or fifty soldiers with his breath.
Turom breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt a little sad looking at the miserable appearance of the soldiers in the field.
"Lord Turom, the purpose of this black dragon is very clear. He just wants to grind us to death here!" the adjutant said anxiously after counting the number of dead and injured.
Turom clenched his fists; he didn't know why, but there was nothing he could do.
According to the strength of that black dragon, he could kill all of them directly at once.
But he didn't take any risks; instead, he chose a safer method to slowly torture him and his subordinates.
He had long heard that the black dragon was the most despicable, shameless, and insidious among the Chromatic dragons, and he had learned it this time.
'If I can return alive this time, I must make this damn black dragon pay the price!'
---
After spraying randomly, I flew to a gravel beach.
This is the place I, Winnie, and Danylan agreed to meet.
After a while, Winnie and Danylan, who smelled of blood, appeared from the air.
There are still some wounds on Winnie's body. After all, the people who can be sent to deliver the letter at this time are not bad.
It took Winnie a lot of work to clean them up.
"Master, they sent three waves of messengers and six people, and they are all here, nya!"
Then six bloody human heads were thrown out from the magic tool.
'My eyelids twitch; is my bitch so stupid?'
"Very good!"
I encouraged dryly.
Then I said, "Next time, you don't need to bring their heads back!"
"Good Lord, Shadar and the others are also nearby!" Winnie touched her cat ears; she felt as if she had forgotten something.
"Shadar? Didn't I tell them to withdraw to the Evil Tooth Tribe?" I knew that Shadar and the others fought against each other with the belief that they would die this time after knowing the strength of the enemy.
So I didn't think about how to blame them. It's hard to find such loyal subordinates.
"They want to do something for adults!" Winnie shook her head, remembering the miserable appearance of Shadar and the others.
"Let them clean up the battlefield later and block the surrounding jungle by the way. I don't want any human soldiers to come out of here alive!"
After the last wave of testing, I knew that the remaining army basically had no fighting power.
I didn't see the inhuman fighters before, so I decided to deal with those soldiers directly in the next wave.
After all, if you break into the dragon's territory, one must be prepared to pay the price.
Although they don't know that this is their territory.
"I obey, Lord; I will not let any human soldier escape. I will inform Shadar and them now!"
Winnie bowed, bouncing, and then disappeared into the air.
I looked at the place where she disappeared and shook my head. The girl, Winnie's racial talent, is really powerful.
Then I yawned and flew up.
Time to get these guys on their way.
I didn't feel bad about killing so many people.
After all, I was a dragon in this life, not a human.
And I don't think that human beings are supreme, like some senior traversers, who insist on becoming purebred humans.
This time I flew very high; I was about 800 meters above the ground and then slowly descended to 400 meters.
With the amazing vision of the dragon, I found the remaining human soldiers on the ground.
The atomic furnace in my body began to glow, so that there was a fiery red light on my chest.
I hadn't fully released the energy of the atomic oven a few times before, but this time I wanted to really release it.
...
Turom always had a bad feeling today, and his intuition is sometimes very accurate.
"Pass down the order and be on strict alert!"
Turom hurriedly ordered everyone to be alert.
But these soldiers had been very tired for a while.
They had been marching in haste and had little food.
At this time, there was another roar like thunder in the sky.
"All alert; prepare to defend!"
"It's the black dragon; he's coming again!"
"Run!"
"Why can't you let us go?"
"I want to go home; my wife is just pregnant!"
...
But this time, some soldiers didn't listen to his orders, and they started running in all directions.
After all, they are not brutal holy shields without humanity.
Serving as a soldier is just to make life better for themselves or their family.
After several attacks by the black dragon, the tense nerve finally broke!
But I didn't let them go; I passed over the team, exhaling white and slightly blue breath from my mouth.
This breath was hotter than before, and many soldiers' armor melted with their flesh...
Even the ground was melted and crystallized by the high temperature!
I directly ignored attacks like those spears and fireball ice arrows.
After all, even if injured, I can constantly recover.
I now feel that my condition is better than ever, and the energy in my body is continuously pouring out, as if I were constantly using my heat breath since I got it, making me eager to vent.
Turom put on his helmet and ignored the frightened and shit-pissed mount.
He looked at the black dragon who slaughtered his subordinates wantonly in the sky and said firmly:
"I'm Turom Voltan; I won't lose!"
He took out a bottle of red potion from the magic tool and drank it directly.
A scarlet light flashed in Turom's eyes.
"Everything is for the Voltan family!"
As the effect of the red potion began to ferment, the blood in Turom's body began to change slowly.
This change is somewhat similar to the previous brutal holy shield, but it seems that there are many more things.
His body grew as if inflated until it reached nearly five meters. The armor on his body surface was torn, and his boots were pierced by sharp nails.
The skin on the surface of the body began to turn red, and huge sharp horns grew on the top of his head. His head elongated, and rows of teeth grew out of his mouth.
Another pair of huge arms grew out of his back, covered with bone fragments and spikes.
And what grew on it were not fingers, but large claws like crabs.
The current Turom can't be told from the outside that he was once a handsome middle-aged man.
"Master Turom, you..." The adjutant looked at Turom in horror.
Turom grabbed the adjutant and said:
"Evacuate with the rest of the army, as much as you can go!"
Then he threw him far away with ingenuity.
The adjutant gritted his teeth and looked at Turom and the black dragon in the distance, leading a few soldiers straight to the depths of the jungle.
Turom looked at me frantically after doing all this.
"Dragon, I will tear you apart!"
A hoarse voice came from Turom's bloody mouth.
I stopped killing a long time ago; my scarlet eyes narrowed slightly.
"Devil!"
There happened to be such a memory in the inheritance memory of the real dragon, and I recognized the identity of the other party.
That's right; this guy in front of me is a devil descendant.
In the past, in the main material world, there would often be some powerful devils who came across the plane to start wars.
In some special cases, some devils would have a relationship with humans to give birth to offspring with both bloodlines.
This kind of human-devil hybrid is called a devil descendant!
No wonder I felt that the aura of those fighters was very familiar before; but now that I thought about it, those guys were also implanted with devil blood in some way, thus awakening it.
But the person in front of me is different. His ancestors should be a hybrid of purebred devil and humans, and his devil blood is not as strong as the first generation of devils, so he can completely control his blood.
But I was a little puzzled; the character of the devil is not like this.
The character of this kind of creature is actually similar to that of the Chromatic dragon. They are born within the Nine Hells and should undoubtedly become the overlord who dominates mortals, considering all mortals as ants.
It is said that a boring nobleman has done an experiment and fostered the devils in the homes of kind people since birth, but the evil of the devils has been revealed since childhood. For their benefit, they will even kill their adoptive parents without hesitation. Town planning riots and the like are commonplace.
The man in front of me was willing to sacrifice himself for the only thirty or so human soldiers left.
His current state should be that he used medicine to suppress the blood of humans and stimulate the blood of devil.
"But this method of forcibly stimulating the devil form is very dangerous. During the battle, the devil blood in his body will be continuously consumed, and after a long time, the blood will be exhausted, and he will die.
'Go to hell!'
'No, you are already going there.'
Turom didn't speak any more but rushed up directly.
Turom knows the history of their Voltan family better than anyone else, so what about the demons?
The warrior fighting spirit in his body turned into some kind of black energy and attached to his arm, full of ominous atmosphere.
'Roar…'
I let out a deafening roar at the charging Turom.
I focused all my feral wild scream on Turom.
The sound waves, visible to the naked eye, attacked Turom.
Suddenly, Turom felt the demonic energy in his body surging, and the skills accumulated on the surface of his body were directly interrupted and disappeared.
He seemed to be deaf in both ears.
Then, a dragon's tail struck Turom's body as fast as lightning.
Rumbling~
Turom's body slammed into the nearby jungle.
Countless trees were smashed.
I didn't give Turom too much time to react, and the atomic furnace in my body began to exert force.
A blue-white ray hit Turom directly.
I sprayed for ten seconds before stopping, and the surrounding trees and grass were all scorched black.
After the smoke cleared, Turom's miserable figure appeared in place.
One of his eyes had been scorched.
There was only one and a half of the four arms left, and the other arms had just been used to protect his vital parts, using all the Ki in his body to counter my breath.
But my breath's temperature was still too high. Even if Turom now has the physique of a devil of the tenth or eleventh order, it could not be avoided.
I didn't expect to burn the opponent to ashes.
'What kind of monster are you?'
Turom didn't think the opponent was a black dragon at all now.
The black dragon didn't have the ability to interrupt spellcasting, and even though it wasn't the first time he had seen this kind of breath, Turom was still full of doubts.
If this black dragon can breathe fire, then it's probably a cross between a red dragon and a black dragon.
After all, it is not that there have been mixed-blood dragons in history. The Voltan family has heard that an old red dragon beat a silver dragon and gave birth to a mixed-blood red dragon.
And the breath of the black dragon in front of him has never been heard before!
'I think you're the real monster here—devil, even. As for us, there's no 'hell' in our fate. The worst of our kind ascend to Dragon Heaven! Not that I have any desire to witness that firsthand.' I gazed at the other party with sharp, amused interest, sizing them up with a smirk curling at the corner of my lips.
Under my gaze, the wounds on Turom's body were healing at a rapid speed, and even the broken arms were growing back.
It reminded me of Wolverine from the movies in my past life, or the relentless trolls in this one. That kind of power—regeneration so potent that it makes you nearly unkillable—is something I crave beyond reason. I'd bargain with the Devil himself to attain it. Imagine... a dragon my size, with unstoppable regeneration. I'd be a force beyond comprehension, nearly untouchable. Isn't that the ultimate goal? To be truly 'invincible,' a being untouched by gods and mortals alike, standing above all, immune to both time and death itself?
'Come again!'
Seeing Turom, I, who was standing there, spread my wings and charged directly. The brief fight just now gave me great confidence.
This guy's strength seems to be... just like that...
Turom's newly grown arm also greeted me again.
I didn't breathe this time; the heat ray was fired too hard just now, and he needed to slow down.
'Roar~'
Turom let out an inhuman roar; the black dragon's desire to fight in close quarters was just what he wanted.
He was originally the top fighter in the Voltan family, but now he was even stronger with the addition of the devil's physique.
He didn't believe that his fighting skills were inferior to the opponent's.
Turom ran quickly and turned sideways to attack my abdomen.
Guys, are you going to solve me with a sliding shovel?
The scales on the belly of the true dragon are indeed weaker than other places.
But that was another true dragon, and my defense had no flaws, no dead ends.
'Rupture!'
Dragon language magic began to be cast.
Countless soil thorns suddenly drilled out of the ground around Turom, and immediately he felt his body become extremely heavy, and his speed slowed down.
'It's actually an earth element fusion magic!'
Turom's pupils shrank. Why?
'Fireball!'
Without hesitation, I unleashed the fireball spell at full force. Yes, I had sworn to focus only on water and earth elemental magic, but come on, could I even call myself a true mage if I didn't know fireball? The spell scroll was practically a rite of passage, and it had been just sitting there in my treasure for more than five years, waiting to be used. Besides, I knew I could acquire fire affinity, just as I had with earth—all I needed was the right creature to devour.
In an instant, more than a dozen massive fireballs, each about four meters in diameter, erupted into existence, orbiting around me like a blazing storm.
