10 Chapter 9 : War of Words

Azel was furious. But Azel is still trying to stay calm and control his emotions. If he was emotional, then it would immediately waste the opportunity to put on the headgear.

 "Oh yeah, sorry for not introducing myself, I'm Azazel," Azel said while lowering his head slightly. It could be said that Azel imitated the dress style of a high noble to look more dignified.

 Zorecco, who heard Azazel's words, immediately gritted his teeth. He remembers very well that Azazel was the one who attacked his brother in Hell. But Zorecco decided to hold back his emotions for now.  If he was too emotional, then it could benefit the enemy.

 There was no longer any reason for Zorecco not to fight. It was the right decision for him to face someone who had come out of Hell. Moreover, switching between the Mortal World and Hell was something that could upset the balance of the world.

 As a True Dragon Lord, it was right to destroy someone who would break the balance of the world.

 "Ahh, I don't want to fight. How about we settle this matter peacefully?" Azel offers Zorecco a peaceful solution.

 "Resolve this peacefully?" Zorecco asked again to make sure he hadn't heard wrong.

 "Of course! After all, why are we fighting because it will cost us," said Azel in a convincing voice.

 If only ordinary people heard Azel's words, then surely he would be very sure if Azel was serious about offering a peaceful solution to the problem. But the person Azel is currently talking to is not a commoner, but a True Dragon Lord. According to rumors, the True Dragon Lords were known for their extraordinary wisdom, so that every True Dragon Lord could be nicknamed the Wise King.

 "Interesting, peaceful solution..... Peaceful problem solving... I agree with that," Zorecco agreed with Azel's statement that offered a peaceful solution.

 Of course, Zorecco wasn't completely convinced by Azel's words. He just wanted to know where the topic of his conversation with someone who managed to get out of Hell would go.

That said, this was Zorecco's first time meeting someone capable of breaking out of Hell.

 "Alright, how about we forget about this matter and pretend nothing happened?" Azel offers Zorecco a solution.

 "Sorry, that's not my job, but… Are you afraid to offer a peaceful solution?" Zorecco tried to get emotions out of Azel.

 Azel, who heard Zorecco's words felt very annoyed and furious. He even gritted his teeth and pressed hard enough, but Azel was still trying to calm himself down. He should not be emotional in the current situation.

 This discussion will also buy time so that Azel will be able to use his headgear.

 "I don't want to say I'm scared or not, but I just want a peaceful solution and don't want to fight."

 "It's not that I'm scared or anything, but isn't it pointless if one of us dies in a fight?" Azel drew back the emotions from Zorecco with his words.

 Zorecco remained calm and hadn't been provoked by Azel's words.

 "I see, so you think one of us will die if we fight?" Zorecco asked Azel back.

 '"Of course, aren't our strengths balanced?" Azel asked Zorecco with an expression arrogant enough to provoke emotion from Zorecco.

 "Balanced?  Hahaha, aren't you weaker?"  Zorecco chuckled and thought that Azel was weaker than him.

Azel smiled slightly because he already knew that Zorecco had underestimated him. Of course, Azel shouldn't be too happy just yet. If you pay attention, Zorecco sounds dismissive of Azel, but there is a possibility that this is just baiting to make Azel confident. He decided to just treat it as something that is not important.

 Zorecco saw Azel's expression, which seemed to smile slyly. He also smiled because his plan was likely to have worked. One of Zorecco's plans is to make the enemy too confident. If the enemy is very confident, there will be many loopholes. Later, the gap will be used to deliver a crushing blow.

 But it would be better if his current opponent was someone stupid enough to be capable of being manipulated.  Even so, Zorecco doesn't see Azel as someone stupid, it is very clear from the way he talks.

 "I'm sorry, but I think our strength is equal, True Dragon Lord, Zorecco Cummoin el Greida," Azel said while showing a posture like a very polite noble.

 Zorecco is quite impressed with Azel. But there is a possibility that it was all a hoax. He must not be deceived by someone who has hurt his brother.  On the other hand, Azel smiled slyly because his combat armor had already reached 98%. In other words, he just had to buy himself a little more time.

 Zorecco said coldly, "You seem arrogant, Azazel,"

"It may be so, but it may not be, but aren't you the one with the cocky nature?" Azel asked Zorecco with an expression as if insulting Zorecco.

 "You made me….. Forget it."

 Instantly, the cave where Azel is currently shaking and Zorecco's giant body is no longer visible. A person was wearing full gray armor in front of Azel right now.

 The armor has a light gray color and covers the entire body of the person inside. Of course, Azel already knew if the person inside was Zorecco or the True Dragon Lord.  Neither the Dragon Lord nor the True Dragon Lord was able to transform into a humanoid wearing full combat armor.

 Behind Zorecco's armor were ten long swords that floated, and they had a brownish-black color. The back of Zorecco's armor also has a brown cloak, and no part of his body is visible because everything is covered in armor.

 Azel knows very well that Zorecco currently intends to fight because he has turned into a humanoid form.

 Azel smiled widely and his teeth were also showing, which indicated that he was very happy. The big battle was unavoidable. In Zorecco's helmet, there are only two small holes that seem to give off yellow color. Of course, the light came from Zorecco's bright yellow eyes.

 Zorecco's current height can be said to be quite high for the size of a humanoid because it has a height of around 2.5 meters.

 Slowly, a helmet-shaped helmet that was thick enough began to be attached to Azel's head. The helmet is very tightly closed and only has a hole with a vertical line in the middle. The light from Azel's glowing red eyes is also clearly visible in the hole.

 Both sides are ready for battle even though Azel can't use all his strength.

 Azel and Zorecco stared at each other from about twenty meters away.
