Chapter 283: Origin_4
"Interestingly, they've taken me as their Divine being, believing their Strength was bestowed by me, and they're asking for more. I told them it's too difficult and suggested they make another wish. Then that guy who calls himself King begged me to give him a mount, preferably one that can fly, that's big enough and fierce enough!"
"This isn't hard for me; the d-7447 meat lizard perfectly fits his criteria, and it's just a matter of editing the DNA code to add a pair of wings. I also needed a safe and reliable protein source, so I used genetic synthesis to create embryos of the d-7447 meat lizards, instructing those Primitive People to raise them for me."
"Those Primitive People gladly accepted this gift and named it the Giant Dragon, subsequently calling me 'Dragon God.' Though I don't like the name they came up with, especially hating being equated with those meat lizards, I realized through them, I could more easily understand this world, so I decided to use them temporarily, to satisfy their Spirit dependency on me... I swear, it's not because I had nothing better to do, nor because their flatteries made me float."
"And so, we coexisted peacefully for fifty years. They treated me as a God, feeding the d-7447 meat lizards for me—which they call the Giant Dragon—and using the Giant Dragon's Strength to conquer other Primitive People Kingdoms. As for me, I secluded myself in the forest of this alien planet waiting for the seemingly hopeless rescue, while studying the mysterious Extraordinary Power, doing a few time-killing experiments on the side."
"However, in the fifty-first year, something unexpected happened—a d-7447 meat lizard, which shouldn't have any Intelligence, actually gained the mind of a sentient being and even mastered a very dangerous form of Magic! To escape its fate as a sacrifice, it caused havoc on the altar, not only killing the Primitive People leader who worshipped me but also destroying his castle and burning his village to ashes!"
"I don't care about those hairless monkeys, but illegally enlightening non-sentient beings is a serious crime in the Zeta Empire! Especially enlightening meat lizards... damn, if other people found out, I'd definitely be on the news headlines!"
"At the time, I hadn't given up the idea of returning, and my first reaction was to do something before that damned rescue team arrives! However, the trouble was that those damn Giant Dragons could not only fly but also took me as their father... damn, how could I bring myself to harm them?!"
"After much hesitation, I finally decided to borrow the hands of those hairless monkeys. Although their Strength is weak, their numbers are sufficient. I told them that those who defy me are all Evil Dragons, and if they could kill those fallen scum for me, they'd be granted what they call Extraordinary Power..."
"Conveniently, this group of hairless monkeys was also tormented by the out-of-control Giant Dragons, and they immediately expressed their willingness to become Dragon Hunters, vowing to hunt down the traitors of the Dragon Clan for me, even offering their Soul to me! Haha, these fools have no idea that the trouble was caused by me. It's both absurd and laughable."
"I entrusted them with the 'dragon slaying' task while I researched why the d-7447 meat lizards suddenly gained Intelligence, and exactly who illegally enlightened them."
"But then, something bizarre happened again! A Dragon Hunter returned to me, excitedly kneeling on the ground to thank me. It seemed he truly gained Strength because of my promise... although I have no idea how that happened."
"And what's even more bizarre, he wasn't the only one who gained Strength!"
"I seem to have actually gained powers comparable to a Divine being..."
