The Red Dragon Just Wants To Do As It Pleases

It's like playing a massive online game, where the skill slots fill the screen with a myriad of options; too many choices can cause hesitation when making decisions during emergencies.

But sometimes, a moment of hesitation in battle can be fatal.

He already had a jumble of abilities under his belt, yet his 'Mana Bar' was still so limited.

Moreover, he lacked overpowered Arcane Arts abilities like Ultimate Rank 9 Arcane Time Stop combined with the legendary Arcane Time Duplication. These would have allowed him to unleash a dozen spells in 'Bullet Time' to overwhelm enemies. Consequently, his battles remained 'tit-for-tat' and 'semi-turn-based'.

As a result, his usual combat style involved initiating with a powerful move (Breath of Flames), then using Gluttony to recover some mana. Subsequently, he would engage in direct confrontations with both Arrogance and Greed activated, while simultaneously employing Jealousy for spell counters.

This strategy was indeed a divine artifact for steamrolling weaker opponents; enemies at his level who didn't understand his combat style would often be bamboozled by his onslaught right from the start.

However, as he grew and his fame spread, his name and information had secretly made their way onto the desks of influential powers.

Like the High Elves, who had already figured out his identity.

So in future encounters, he would definitely face enemies who understood his combat style, even those who had specifically studied his 'tactics' to counter them.

It was like that time years ago when a well-prepared Dragon Slayer squad tried to take down his mother Pavla and her divine protection.

If his mom hadn't hidden a trump card like Atomic Fission Breath to instantaneously eliminate them, there could have been trouble.

As far as he knew, many Dragon Slayers now wouldn't engage in a direct confrontation targeting a dragon's eyes, neck, or heart. Instead, they would target its 'large weak spots' and focus on its lower body—which was just damn annoying.

So now, one of his most urgent tasks was to organize the 'skill list' that would best complement his own fighting style and plan for 'skills' relevant to his future development.

Of course, he could plan several sets of strategies to counter different styles of enemies.

Only this beautiful vision seemed to shatter with the crash of the Book of the Dragon within the Nirvana Mechanical Clock.

David's patience had run thin. He said goodbye to his dragon father, Attilicia, packed his things, and began leading the other dragons back. They retraced their path through the Avernus wilderness of Barto Hell. Just as they were about to reach the Planar Transfer Base without incident, something unexpected happened. The Book of the Dragon, which David had thought completely 'crashed,' suddenly restarted as if a dead machine had rebooted. A cascade of data models poured down onto his retina, leaving his entire dragon form utterly dumbfounded.

Then, he saw the Book of the Dragon, which he had painstakingly fed and trained, finally generate his panel:

Still question marks? What the hell?

David was instantly pissed off.

And my Charisma is only 22?

Am I really the least charming in this family?

Unsatisfied with this, David immediately felt Wrath.

But when he saw his flexible alignment, which danced around the Sudoku Grid like a mosaic, changing with his mood, he was completely baffled.

What in the world is going on here?
