Odyssey of the Blind God Chapter 520 Reason

Chapter 520 Reason

Nial was subjected to weird gazes by almost everyone.
His fight with Michael Ignis was over but Nial was still fighting with some Draco. Calling it a fight might be an overestimation because Nial ended up knocking out the Keltia-ranked Draco even before he could touch Nial but that didn't matter.
Nial did what he wanted to do, which meant that he garnered everyone's attention, if only in a rough way.
"He was a little bit arrogant, don't you think so?" Nial asked while looking in the direction of the Dracos Leader and Michael Ignis. He had a faint smile on his lips and looked seemingly unbothered about what he had just done.
"Good fight, by the way. You're really strong!"
Nial knew that his comment wouldn't really appease Michael Ignis's wounded ego but he felt the need to tell the Draco's prodigy that he had been quite powerful.
"...Thanks…I guess…" Michael Ignis responded, not sure what else he was supposed to say when he looked at Nial and the Keltia-ranked Draco who had been knocked out in an instant.
After using Dominion in its second strongest form, Nial followed up with a powerful roundhouse kick that was enhanced by the Power of Chaos.
"Was it really necessary to knock him out?" The Dracos Leader asked all of a sudden, just for Nial to shrug his shoulders in response.
"I don't know. Would everyone else have paid attention to me that quickly? He released killing intent and charged at me, either way. Just feel lucky that I didn't kill him," Nial said in a manner that clearly showed how little he cared about the unconscious Draco.
"I want to do business, not to beat the shit out of you guys!" He had to add before he pointed back at the Forest of Life.
"Why did you guys want the divinity fragment portal of the Elven Empress, either way? Sacrificing an army of a hundred thousand powerful Dracos and tamed beasts in exchange for a small chance to procure the portal is not exactly worth it in my opinion.
You guys should have created a worldbridge, or multiple if you guys are not satisfied with the efficiency of a single worldbridge!"
It was hard for Nial to comprehend why the Dracos wanted to get their hands on the Empress' Divinity Fragment portal and be ready to sacrifice so much. It couldn't be because the divinity fragment was a portal…there had to be more to it. Otherwise, it really didn't make any sense!
The Dracos Leader looked at him evenly, not intending to answer at first. However, it was Michael who answered instead.
"If I answer this question, will you answer one of my questions?" Michael asked while his wounds were getting tended to.
Nial gave Michael Ignis a nod while motioning him to continue.
"Alright…to answer your question first, you don't seem to be very knowledgeable about worldbridges. That is not exactly important but you should know that there can only be one worldbridge connected from a certain planet to a certain region of another planet. Some planets are too small and their planetary mana core is too weak to create and sustain multiple worldbridges connected to only one other planet.
We wanted the Divinity fragment portal because its the strongest type of worldbridge we've encountered until now. We want to bring our runiciers, weaponry, engraving and forging equipment and materials to the Origin, but that is easier said than done because our origin planet is rather small in comparison to the other planets we've expanded to.
There are some problems with the other planets as well, but that is not something you need to know."
Michael's answer was somewhat detailed, yet also lacked the necessary input. Nial understood the rough meaning of the Draco's words, which was enough for the time being. A plan was being formed in his mind and he was slowly getting somewhere with his train of thought.
"As for my question…did you go all out against me?" Michael finally asked.
At first, he had been certain that Nial had given his all. After releasing the silverish-white beam, Nial bled out of his eyes and nose. That was a pretty intense sign of the effort put in by the blind Original.
However, just a moment later, he forced a Keltia-ranked Draco onto his knees before he knocked him out with a single kick! Nial didn't even seem exhausted afterward. And to top it all, nearly everyone who heard him saying "Kneel!", flinched and almost went down on their knees.
They hadn't even been targeted by Nial, yet, they almost went down on their knees in supplication because their subconscious told them to do so.
Nial thought about the best answer for a moment before he came to a realization. Even if it was harsh, telling the truth was still best in that situation.
"I didn't go all-out while fighting you, but that has other reasons than me trying to humiliate you or anything like that. I hope you won't misunderstand."
Michael Ignis looked at Nial for a few seconds and he ended up nodding his head. It was frustrating and somewhat humiliating that Nial didn't go all out against him but Michael didn't think that Nial was lying.
Nial chose to consider that the discussion had come to an end. Thus, he turned his head lightly to make sure that his milky-white, lifeless eyes would stare in the direction of the Dracos Leader, though unfocused.
"When you go back to get your hands on the Greater Forest Dragon egg, you can also take these things with you. I can produce dozens of Broken Tier-2 runic armaments within a day. With good Master BLacksmiths by my side I can probably be even faster," Nial said while throwing a small spatial ring to the Dracos Leader.
A bunch of runic armaments could be found inside, basically, all types of runic armaments Nial could create in the Halheim shelter.
"If you cannot bring your weaponry and other equipment to the Origin, just make new ones! With the blacksmithing talent of the Dracos, it would be much easier for me to work hard, become a better runicier and earn more money as well!"
The Dracos leader retrieved a few runic armaments from the ring, which is how he realized that Nial was already a Grandmaster Runicier, with an exceptional variety of runic constellations at his disposal. The way he engraved runic constellations and connected them was quite unique as well. It just showed how exceptionally talented he was.
After looking through the weapons for a while, Michael Ignis grasped one of the heavy greatswords that caught his eye. It was almost two meters in length, bloody red in color and crimson runic constellations were engraved along the entire blade.
Ignoring his injuries, Michael inserted mana inside the Tier-3 runic greatsword that began to vibrate all of a sudden. Flames shrouded the vibrating blade and the Draco felt a sudden spurt of strength and vigor entering his body.
"What the hell is that?" He mumbled, realizing that he was looking at something that he had never seen before.
"You can use your mana to replenish your vigor and increase your strength temporarily. The amount of mana drained from your body will increase the longer you keep the runic constellations necessary to create this effect activated, but that's why there is also a flame shroud and vibration runic constellation to increase the weapon's attack power drastically!" Nial explained, throwing a lot of confusing words at once without telling too much.
He was looked at weirdly for a while before the sound of someone clearing his throat reached Nial's ears.
"We are not on good terms with the Elven races as you can see…is that fine with you?" The Dracos leader asked all of a sudden, all the traces of hostility wiped out of it.
