After doing this, Jona Velli slumped.
Emptiness, a boundless emptiness surged into her heart like a tide.
"So... is this what it feels like after revenge?
No pleasure of a great grudge settled, no carefree feeling of letting go, no ecstasy as imagined... only that boundless loneliness and vast emptiness.
Confusion, a trance within confusion—is this relief? Is this right?"
Jona Velli fell into confusion, her sun-gold vertical pupils becoming hollow, losing their original luster.
Now she only wanted to see those two fellows again, only wanted to talk to them, chat with them, even just to see them one more time.
Thinking this, Jona Velli deactivated [Eternity], and time here returned to normal.
Seeing the Demon King killed in the blink of an eye, the monsters of the Demon King Kingdom were stunned for only half a second before they all scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing frantically.
Seeing this, the Dragon Vein Followers' morale soared to a new level, and they all charged forward like madmen.
They hadn't forgotten their objective: kill them all, leave none alive!
Harmody watched this scene; he was starting to understand that this powerful dragon had come to seek revenge against Seranos.
And the targets of revenge also included Veitris, whom he knew.
But as he thought, Harmody suddenly felt a slight sense of familiarity from the dragon before him, as if there was a faint connection between them in the dark.
Driven by some unknown impulse, he asked the question in his heart.
"Excuse me, have you always lived on the Jesup Continent? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Jona Velli didn't even turn her head, just staring blankly in place.
Harmody, receiving no response, scratched his head and didn't give up, continuing to ask.
"I want to ask, have you seen my wife? And my child? My wife is a Black Dragon, so my child should be... no, that's not right, my child should also be a White Dragon, after all, I'm so powerful.
Or maybe a mix of black and white scales, eh, anyway..."
Harmody's words stopped abruptly because he saw Jona Velli looking over.
A strange light flashed in Jona Velli's eyes, but it was quickly hidden.
Harmody felt his skin crawl under her gaze and muttered.
"If you won't say, then don't say, why scare me?"
Meanwhile, Jona Velli had already flown downwards, arriving before the city wall that was several hundred meters shorter than her.
Seeing Gris hanging there, the sorrow in her heart could no longer be suppressed.
"Gris, my brother..."
Jona Velli slowly lifted her claw to gently take Gris down, placed him before her, and gently rubbed him with her dragon head.
Jona Velli's eyes stung, and crystal-like tears dripped onto Gris's head; her dragon body began to tremble slightly.
This always-powerful Lord of White Crystal only wanted to seek the remaining warmth at this moment.
She curled into a ball, holding Gris in her embrace, not wanting anyone else to hurt her brother.
"Ang!"
A sorrowful dragon roar sounded, but it wasn't from Jona Velli—it was Harmody in the sky.
He had just been completely distracted by Jona Velli and only now saw the Black Dragon head hanging on the city wall.
That was his wife, the Legendary Black Dragon Serika.
With a flap of his white dragon wings, a gale blew, and with a boom, Harmody crashed onto the ground.
He ran to the city gate in a panic, tears dripping down.
He didn't dare reach out to take down that head, only pacing anxiously and sorrowfully before the dragon head.
"Serika! My Serika! You... how did you become like this?!
I've only been gone for over a hundred years, how... how could this be?"
This White Dragon could no longer suppress his emotions and wept aloud.
He was grieving for his wife and mourning the child he had never seen.
Jona Velli slightly lifted her dragon head, and seeing this scene, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Jona Velli lowered her dragon head again, meeting Gris's vacant pupils.
At this moment, the emotions in her heart could no longer be suppressed and erupted.
"Roar!!!"
"Why? Why take away my brother!
Gris! Friel! I command you, return to my side at once! At once!
World! How can you be so heartless? Why are you so cruel? Now, I have nothing, nothing at all!"
Jona Velli was on the verge of collapse. Just then, she suddenly stood up, her expression frenzied, pointing a single claw at the sky.
"Since you are so heartless and want to take everything from me, then today, I, the King of Time-Wheel and Frost, will personally take back everything that belongs to me!!"
"Roar!!!"
A world-shaking dragon roar erupted. Jona Velli's eyes were blood-red as she exerted all her strength to stretch her magnificent figure, her whole body emitting a bloody aura.
"You... what are you doing?"
Harmody's attention was drawn by Jona Velli's actions, his tone startled, even though tears still shimmered in his eyes.
He could sense that Jona Velli was burning her essence blood, going into an explosive state!
That wasn't all; Jona Velli was continuously squeezing her potential, her strength rising at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye.
A roar as hard as steel came through.
"I don't accept this outcome, I refuse their deaths!
I will... I will reverse time! Return to the past!
To save my friends, to fight against the heavens, and reclaim everything I cherish!"
"Roar!"
Jona Velli's size ballooned, her realm soaring crazily, but strangely, she didn't break through to the Demi-God level.
She wasn't surprised by this, because her father, that mysterious Time Dragon, had told her many secrets through dreams after she reached the Legendary rank.
At this time, her realm had reached the Three-Ring Legend.
"Wheel of the Future!"
The familiar dial appeared again, the hands turning, pointing to the Elder Stage.
Violent and powerful energy fused into Jona Velli's body, her size ballooning crazily, finally stopping only when she reached over 3,500 meters.
Powerful time energy radiated from Jona Velli, this violent power completely undisguised.
Suddenly, high above the heavens, within the god realms, over a hundred powerful deities opened their eyes from their divine thrones one after another.
"This power..."
"Who is it?"
"How can this be..."
"Time! Who is it?!"
...Within the Evil Dragon God Kingdom and the Platinum God Realm, two dragon gods with bodies tens of thousands of meters long also lifted their massive dragon heads.
They turned their dragon heads and cast their gazes down.
However, their eyes seemed to have lost the brilliance and majesty they should have possessed, appearing somewhat... hollow?
...At the World Tree Roots, the Black Dragon that had just fallen silent suddenly opened its eyes, looking up in shock, crossing layers of space to see that charcoal-White Dragon covered in a bloody aura.
"What's going on? What is she trying to do?!"
Not only that, powerhouses across the continent—from the Underdark, the Holy See of Light, the Elf Forest, the North Ice Plains, the Sea of Old Days, the Sea of Stillness, to the deep regions of the Black Reef Sea—all noticed the powerful energy radiating from the Jesup Continent.
Even within the Demon King City, a subtle gaze was cast, but it went unnoticed.
That was a power not inferior to a god's, yet without a shred of faith or authority.
