The dragon's harem

Even with how vast Euri’s world was, Arad had almost swallowed it whole by this time. He only had the main planet left and the dead sun.

As he wanted to leave Euri and his planet last, he headed past them and reached the center of the solar system, where the sun should’ve been, and he found it.

A while dot of smoldering iron, radiating with pale light as it still retained much of the sun’s heat. This was the corpse of a sun, what would be left after the great titan devoured all its power and slowly faded away. For more chapters visit NoveIꜰire.net

The sphere of iron was so massive and vast that Arad felt small flying around it. It even dwarfed the Mortal World and emanated a harrowing gravity that it almost ripped Arad in half and crushed him on its surface.

Arad still managed to fly, but just barely. Not because his wings were powerful, but only because he could use his own gravity magic to resist. If not for that, he would’ve been long dead.

That had caused him to stop for a while to think. If all of this power were contained in the relatively cold corpse of a sun, what would Amaterasu be capable of? What would Eris be capable of in a few years?

This also forced Arad to think about gravity for a few minutes and realize that while gravity can be forced to occur through magic, it can also naturally emerge in nature.

The massive objects of the universe all have a powerful gravitational field. He had seen it in all of the planets he had eaten, and this dead sun is heavier, and it has a stronger field.

Arad had two ideas: one was that when objects reach a certain mass, they gain gravity. Or, everything has gravity, but its strength depends on mass, making it unnoticeable in smaller objects.

Arad could already test that in his stomach, and the result was clear. Everything has a gravity field; they are just too weak in smaller objects.

Arad didn’t know if that information could be useful or not, but any knowledge is better than nothing, as long as it’s not forbidden knowledge.

He then flew down and landed on the surface of the sun, looking at the glowing iron beneath him. Pure and plentiful, a true treasure.

For him, this was almost useless on its own, but to Mira, this was a few centuries’ supply of iron.

He immediately expanded his elemental expansion and started devouring the whole sun. Unlike the planets, which were relatively small, this sun would take him hours to finish.

All this time, Euri was struggling with the remaining soldiers to cool their bunker, barely able to survive as Diana watched from above, heating the planet with another strike whenever she felt like it. Mathilde flew all around the world in circles, looking for anyone who dared get out of the boiling ground to kill them.

Devils were extremely resistant to heat, so surviving in the red-hot crust wasn’t as impossible as it would’ve been for humans, but they still couldn’t endure days of being locked in a pressure cooker.

As they guarded the planet, the two angels had many conversations, most of which were about Arad. Mainly because Diana couldn’t believe that Arad was eating this entire solar system like it was a giant buffet.

She had seen many void dragons, but almost none of them tried doing such a thing. They all trained day and night, ate uranium and abominations, then spent all of their remaining time either flying across space or sleeping.

The drakainas she saw in her life were also all the same, carrying any world that was given to them in their stomachs and then floating in the vacuum of space till the end of their lives.

No one was as active or daring as Arad and Gojo were. She had seen Arad fight, and he didn’t fight like any void dragon. In the war, the void dragons acted as massive carriers that flew across space, blasted anything with their breath, and left most of the physical confrontation to the soldiers and angels most of the time, unless something really bad happened.

Void dragons were massive, heavy, tanky, and fast, making them the god’s moving forts, and a fort isn’t supposed to be punching things with its wall, even if it can move.

Watching Arad fight, Diana always had this painful feeling in the back of her head. It was like watching someone use a sword as a stick instead of swinging it properly.

Void Step, that thing wasn’t made to teleport behind an opponent to stab them; it was supposed to be a tool that allows a void dragon to retreat behind the angels’ defensive line.

What terrified her more was seeing him move. Arad tore the fabric of space, grabbed the threats of space with his claws, and catapulted himself forward with Vorvadoss’s space magic. It was the same method he used to move past the space rifts in the World Tree, but since he was in space now, he could fly more easily and get even faster.

“What are you thinking about?” Mathilde flew closer to Diana and looked at her, “Running out of divine magic?”

Diana looked at her with a smug face, “Me? Her divinity, Kali, has enough divine magic to drown your goddess ten times over.”

Mathilde smacked her on the back, “I can’t deny that, but doesn’t that say you’ve been cheating against me in all of those fights? Having ten times more divine magic than I? Oh, wait, I won a few fights. Does that mean I’m more skilled than you?”

Diana growled, “First, we fought on the frontlines, we all had the same rations of divine magic. Kali has more overall, but it’s spread across multiple archons and countless angels and demons.” She pointed at Mathilde’s face, “And you are nowhere near as skilled as I. I was born to fight and destroy; you were not.”

Mathilde smiled, “Can’t argue with that, but I can kick better.”

She wasn’t wrong. Overall, Diana was stronger. But Mathilde had better kicks than Diana.

“Said the foot fetish angel.”

“Said the chaos fart!”

Seconds later, the two were already fighting, not seriously, but with enough power to shake the already crumbling planet beneath them. When Arad returned, the two were already getting serious. Mathilde had caught Diana’s head between her thighs and was trying to crush it like a melon, while Diana had managed to tear Mathilde’s wings off and burn her back to a crisp.

“What are you two doing?” He asked, looking at them with a tired face.

“She started it!” Diana pointed at Mathilde, “Look! She is trying to crush my head between her stinky legs!”

“No! I wasn’t!” Mathilde gasped, “She roasted my wings, like they were chicken wings! She hit me first!”

As Arad stared at them in silence for a few seconds, they moved apart and sighed, “Sorry.” Said Diana, “It always ends up like this.”

“Yeah…” Mathilde scratched the back of her head. “We almost always fight when left together.”

“Mathilde, your injuries.” Arad looked at Mathilde’s back with a worried face, but she instantly healed it, “Not even a scratch. Check her.” She pointed at Diana.

“She crushed my head earlier,” Diana said. When Arad found them, it was the second time Mathilde caught Diana in the iron jaws of her tights. “But I’m fine.”

As the two seemed fine, Arad looked back at the red planet. “I finished swallowing everything here. Time to go down and greet the bastard.”

“We’re killing him?” Diana asked.

“No,” Arad smiled, “I’m breaking all of his bones and taking him to Tyal.”
