After leaving the Land of the Soaring Dragon, Otto flew with his two clones to the center of Nolan Forest, which was once the location of the Thorn Nest.
After Otto burned the Thorn Nest and the ancient tree that supported it, the area nearby became forbidden for most creatures.
The burned ancient tree seemed to be constantly emanating a curse, causing all the surrounding plants and trees to wither and slowly spread outwards.
Although Otto didn’t know the specific reason, he chose to stay on the safe side by ordering his subordinates to dig deep trenches around the area as a barrier after discovering the anomaly.
So far, this method seemed to be quite effective, as the strange curse effects were no longer spreading.
And with almost no creatures appearing here, this place naturally became Otto’s optimal choice for the time being.
Slowly descending onto the charred remains of the ancient tree, Otto looked warily at his two clones.
“How do you feel?”
Otto looked at his clone with a complex expression.
“How can it be? I am you, and you are me. Don’t you know that already?”
One clone didn’t answer, and the other clone replied nonchalantly.
“Alright, I suppose I was just being nosy…”
With a stern face, Otto began contemplating his strategy.
From the current situation, swallowing Rose’s divine power recklessly seemed to bring some troubles.
Although his own absorption ability was slowly taking effect, before Rose’s divine power was completely absorbed, it was spreading rapidly like a virus inside Otto’s clones.
Even Otto himself was unsure about the result if this continued.
That’s why he left the Land of the Soaring Dragon immediately to prevent any adverse effects.
Suddenly, one of the clones’ expression changed, and it quickly plunged its claws into its own chest.
Immediately after, the clone burst into extraordinarily powerful energy, which shattered it on the carbonized top of the ancient tree.
At the moment of the explosion, Otto had already recovered part of the soul scattered in his body.
Although he had lost part of the physical body, as long as he had enough energy later, he could quickly recover to his peak state.
Originally, the other clone had also prepared to do the same, but it seemed to be a step too slow.
Its front claws had touched its chest, but then it slowly retracted them.
“I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be a reckless Silver Dragon…”
A hoarse, ghastly voice came from the possessed clone, and just the sound of it made Otto feel an indescribable fear.
The blue color of the possessed clone’s scales quickly turned black, and its limbs changed into spider-like legs.
Spider-like leg segments grew from between its front and hind legs, making it look like a half-dragon, half-spider creature.
Seeing this, Otto quickly withdrew part of the soul from the possessed clone with a dark expression.
He could feel some resistance during the recovery, but eventually, he managed to take his soul back successfully.
Now, Otto could be certain that his clone had been temporarily possessed by Rose.
Perhaps Rose’s divine power wouldn’t have invaded his main body as quickly if it had been absorbed by the clone, and it might have resulted in another outcome.
However, Otto didn’t want to take any risk. He knew the difference between losing two clones and risking his entire self.
“A quite peculiar ability…”
The hoarse female voice once again came from Otto’s possessed clone, which perhaps was more fitting to be called by Rose’s name now.
The completely black, half-dragon-half-spider mysterious monster moved its body as it stared warily at Otto.
“What can I say? A Silver Dragon, trying to claim my divine power. Should I say you have big guts or are courting death?”
On the black dragon’s head, its scarlet pupils stared fixedly at Otto as it sneered: “Now, have you tasted my greatness, Silver Dragon?”
Under Rose’s gaze, Otto actually relaxed and smiled: “It seems that I was overthinking it.”
“What?”
“A god? If it was your true body descending, that would be another matter.
But look at you now, such a pity…”
“What do you mean?”
Rose glared angrily at Otto, finding his attitude after witnessing the will of a real god quite different from what she had imagined.
“Nothing much, just lamenting my foolish actions just now.
If I had known earlier that the final outcome would be like this, why on earth would I have allowed my other clone to self-destruct and wasted your precious divine power?
Right, the great Spider Goddess.”
Otto sneered, not only showing no respect for Rose, but even showing clear hostility.
“You dare defy the will of God?”
Just as she was filled with rage, a scorching Flame Breath enveloped her.
Moments later, Rose stared at Otto unscathed. She didn’t expect that Otto would really attack her without a word.
The reason Otto didn’t show any respect to Rose was quite simple—that she seemed to be too weak at the moment.
Rose was merely occupying Otto’s puppet-like clone with the help of a wisp of divine power, and her strength was far from her true power.
As for her immunity to the Flame Breath, it was solely because Otto’s clone had a natural immunity to fire damage.
“I see, so my abilities have been perfectly inherited, huh. It seems that at least passive abilities are working as such…”
Otto nodded, then slowly walked towards Rose.
She stared coldly at the approaching Otto, while her hoarse voice cackled: “Well then, let me give you a taste of a deity’s wrath!”
As she spoke, Rose muttered language that Otto had never heard before. Her movements also became strange, as if she was casting some divine spell.
As Otto stared warily at her, after a good while, nothing had happened.
So was she trying to scare him or just buy time?
Just as Otto was puzzled, Rose suddenly shouted, “What’s the matter with you Silver Dragon? Even though your body is so powerful, why can’t you even communicate with magical elements?
Are you a Dragon Beast?”
The truth was revealed: due to Otto’s body’s uniqueness, Rose couldn’t use his possessed clone to cast divine spells.
And without the help of divine spells, the possessed clone, which was only the size of a tenth of Otto’s main body, was completely insignificant.
