I, The Dragon Overlord-Chapter 533 - Becoming the Main God
“I’ve kept you waiting, Your Highness Drexler!”
In the hall of Sleeping Dragon Temple, Drexler, who had turned into human form, quietly sat on a raised chair. It was a position Louie had specially prepared for his subordinate gods. Any of his subordinate gods would sit on these chairs to display their godly superiority.
“His Highness Anhur has fallen. What you have done is truly a display of the might of dragons, Your Highness Dragon God!”
The God of Evil Dragons slightly lowered his head and said respectfully to Louie.
Although Drexler was known as the representative of evil dragons, it did not mean that he was an arrogant person who looked down on everyone. The so-called evil dragon aspect of him was only his doctrine and pursuit, It was the way of survival that he respected.
Contrary to what most people believe, the Obsidian King, who was infamous in the main continent, was actually a very elegant and easy-going person. This was because he had long outgrown his rampant state and was already a learned ancient dragon. His ferocity and arrogance had greatly reduced from then and he had become far wiser over the years.
In fact, the current dragons were different from the pre-Era of Disaster counterpart. During the Era of Disaster, the FIve-colored Dragon God fell and the vast majority of dragons died. The current dragons could be said to be the new generation of dragons. The dragons had gone through their own evolution by natural selection in the era where no god existed. Compared to the ego and diffidence of the dragons in the Age of Gods, the current dragons were more conscious of their actions.
Although Drexler was still bitter that Louie had flushed his life’s hard work down the drain, he also appreciated Louie’s actions that were in line with the doctrine of an evil dragon - to use strength and fear to make other races submit.
For example, this time, Louie was so crazy that he used his true body to invade Valhalla to kill the God of Strategy. Another would be when Louie self-destructed in the Astral Realm to make the God of War Marzalis lose a lot of resources. Because of his actions, all the gods understood that dragons were extremely stubborn, powerful, and crazy creatures. The gods would begin to fear the Dragon God and this alone was enough to gain Drexler’s respect.
“This is an act that a dragon should do. For the glory of the dragons, as the Dragon God, I am obliged to make the gods pay careful attention and dare not underestimate me.”
Louie sat at the top of the throne and shook hands with Drexler.

“Don’t talk about these things, Your Highness Drexler! At the top of the food chain, dragons do not need to fear the persecution of other races. The only thing we need to worry about are the gods. In the face of the gods, the only ones who could talk and fight against them are also true gods. Since we are able to make this choice for the dragons, the dragons should also pay tribute to you.”
To be able to resist the temptation of the gods, a dragon has to sacrifice their greedy character. Drexler deserved to be one of the two most famous dragons on the main continent. For this alone, Louie would give him respect.
“The race on top of the food chain? This description is very good… Your Highness Louie. You have proven that you are the true god most suitable for the position of the Dragon God.”
In the future, Drexler would be under Louie, so Drexler did not mind complimenting Louie and said a few good words, “From now on, I will become your subordinate god. And together, we will build the prosperity of the dragons!”
“Yes, the prosperity of dragons is an inevitable result, Your Highness Drexler. There’s no need to question this point… You have just ascended as a god yet you already provoked His Highness Marzalis and Her Highness Chauntea. This is an unfortunate start, but you do not need to worry. Whether it is Her Highness Chauntea or His Highness Marzalis, they hate me more than you. As the main god, I will shoulder the hatred of the gods for you.”
“As for His Highness Gorsh, there is no need to worry about him. That person is more interested in having good relations with us for now. If things continue as is, I wouldn’t have minded His Highness Gorsh’s friendly gesture, but the Beastman Empire is too close to Heloise’s Land of Dragons. Heloise is different from you. The majority of her believers are humans. If a problem arises in the Land of Dragons, there is a huge possibility that she could be pulled down and fall from the Astral Realm.”
“Dragons also need the God of Good Dragons. If the good side is lacking, it would feel incomplete. For the sake of Heloise's ascension, I will have a hard time accepting His Highness Gorsh’s friendly gesture.”
Louie was not a totally selfish god. That was tantamount to being a complete tyrant. Now, Heloise was in an awkward position. If he wanted her to be able to ascend and survive, then accepting Gorsh’s friendly gesture was a questionable choice.
In this world, there were no eternal enemies. If the interests of both sides aligned enough, Louie would not mind joining forces with his enemies. There might even be a possibility for him and Chauntea and Marzalis to cooperate.
Between countries, there was no such thing as feelings, only interests. This was the same as the gods. Except the gods were individuals and are more affected by feelings as compared to countries.
Of course, if there was a chance, Louie would also retaliate back in the future.
“Heloise is not here, so I will thank you for your kindness in her place!”
The God of Evil Dragons expressed his gratitude for the future God of Good Dragons. This might seem unbelievable because both of them seem to be in a hostile relationship.
“You really have a good relationship with Heloise.”
“If we didn’t have different paths and thoughts on ascending, causing us to have different doctrines, she and I would still be close.”
Drexler smiled to himself, “Moreover if you want the doctrine of the evil dragon to be accepted, you must have the doctrine of the good dragons, and vice versa.”
“It’s good that you know.”
Louie nodded his head appreciatively.
War needed peace to offset it in order to highlight the importance of war and the preciousness of peace. Good and evil also needed each other’s existence to confirm each other. This was why the God of War Marzalis mocked the Goddess of Peace, but still paid enough respect to her and ordered his priests and believers to never persecute the followers of the Goddess.
It was clear that he understood that if there was no peace, war would have no meaning. Drexler was clearly a wise dragon who understood this concept, that without goodness to offset, evil would have no place.
“As a new god, the most important thing for you to do right now is to establish your divine kingdom, your safest haven, and fortress. Inside Dragonblight, you can pick a place to establish your divine kingdom, then you need to create your incarnation. Your godhood might not be high enough in level, but you can just use divine power to create a demigod incarnation. Then send it to the Underworld to help manage the Underworld together with the other gods. Your remaining incarnations should be used for your daily actions.”
“Next you need to find a way to continue to expand your church and faith. You should explore new domains to have the evil dragons promote their god. This is what you have to do next. After that, you no longer need to rush. You can take everything slowly, and as a dragon, you should already be accustomed to this leisurely state of ‘wasting time’.”
As the forerunner on the path of true gods, Louie acted as a teacher and taught this newborn god what to do. This way Drexler could take the shortest route on the path of true gods. New gods who had no teachers had to grasp straws in order to figure out the path of the gods and were probably still figuring out the path at the moment. Those who would make noise at the moment were those ancient gods who were long accustomed to being gods.
“With your teaching, my path as a god is also much easier.”
Drexler thanked Louie for his detailed guidance on everything.
“Right, by the way, there is one thing I need to tell you. The Kobold God is also my subordinate god, but this god does not like to show his face, so you do not need to pay attention to him.”
In the past, there were only two gods in Louie’s divine kingdom, him and Shae, so they did not need to worry about being exposed, but with the addition of the God of Evil Dragons, they would have to prevent Drexler from finding out anything. Louie made a greeting in advance and asked him to treat the Kobold God as if he didn’t exist.
Shae’s secret still couldn’t be exposed yet, even if it was a god in the same divine system.
“I will try to get along well with this God, Your Highness Louie.”
Drexler nodded and said. He didn’t really have any interest in the Kobold God.
“Her Highness Heloise is also about to complete her ascension. Once she succeeds, the initial Dragon God System would be established.”
Louie said happily. After some effort, he finally established his divine system. With his power, he was about to become a veritable god of a divine system.
