OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

"How about I serve as the referee for this match?"

At that moment, a figure appeared between the two.

"The Sorcerer King? Why is he here?" Jircniv thought, watching the Sorcerer King in confusion.

Standing in the center of the arena was Pandora's Actor, disguised as the Sorcerer King.

"Fine by me!"

"I agree!"

In a shadowy corner of the arena, a man fully clad in armor sat silently.

"Ainz Ooal Gown, the Sorcerer King? Is this guy a player? Is he part of the same group as that four-winged birdman?" he muttered through gritted teeth.

He was none other than the Platinum Dragon Lord, who had been killed by Peroroncino in the past. His Level 85 Dragon Armor had been completely destroyed, leaving him no choice but to don a simple suit of armor to gather intelligence covertly.

His true form couldn't be revealed—it would draw too much attention.

"I wonder if these two humans, forced to join Ainz Ooal Gown's Sorcerer Kingdom, can be persuaded to turn against the Sorcerer King," he murmured to himself.

"Are both of you ready?"

Momonga nodded.

Peroroncino said, "Let's begin!"

"Then, let the battle commence!"

With that, Pandora's Actor flew into the air above the arena.

"Flame Domain!"

Peroroncino slammed his palm forcefully onto the ground, and intense flames erupted from his hand, quickly spreading across the entire arena.

Peroroncino did this not for any particular reason, but simply to look impressive.

The spectators in the front rows could all feel the heat radiating from the flames.

"Fighting in flames is amazing!"

"Just how powerful are these two?"

Despite being surrounded by the blazing fire, the two combatants remained unharmed, letting the flames burn around them.

"What kind of technique is this? I've never seen anything like it," the Platinum Dragon Lord pondered.

Momonga drew the two greatswords from his back and charged forward, rushing toward Perorochino.

Peroroncino also summoned a black and a white sword in his hands and charged toward Momonga.

"Clang!"

In an instant, the two were in the center of the arena, their weapons clashing with such force that a massive shockwave was sent out.

"Clang!"

"Ping!"

"Clang!"

In the midst of the flashing blades, their attacks were exchanged at lightning speed, with ordinary people unable to follow the movement of their weapons. All they could see were the sparks flying from where the weapons collided.

The two of them simultaneously unleashed a powerful strike.

The immense force from each of them forced the other back.

"You're stronger than I expected," Peroroncino remarked.

"Then it's time to show my true strength," Momonga replied.

As a max-level mage, Momonga's close combat abilities were naturally stronger than Peroroncino, who was level 55.

The attacks they had exchanged earlier were merely probing strikes from Momonga, as he was inherently cautious.

"Since you're ready to use your true power, I won't hold back either."

"8th-tier magic—Summon Angel!"

A massive magic circle was formed in the center of the arena.

An angel wielding a silver-white greatsword appeared. Its size was slightly taller than Perorochino, and its body resembled the ordinary angels once summoned by the Slane Theocracy.

However, its strength was far beyond that of those common angels.

"Dominion Vehemence"

Level: 50

In a distant corner of the arena, a person from the Slane Theocracy widened his eyes in disbelief.

After Jircniv had invited the Slane Theocracy to observe the Empire, this individual had stayed behind to monitor the Empire's activities.

As a member of the High Priest's retinue, he had seen the Slane Theocracy's Sunlight Scripture. He recognized the angel immediately—this was the Angel that the High Priest had always wanted to summon using only his own power.

But despite many attempts, the High Priest had never succeeded.

Dominion Vehemence was one tier below the Dominion Authority, the same type of angel that Momonga had dealt with in the beginner village of Carne Village. It was an angel that the Slane Theocracy needed a Demon Sealing Crystal to summon.

As Dominion Vehemence appeared, Momonga immediately rushed toward Peroroncino.

"Go ahead and play with it for now!"

"I was born from the shadows."

Peroroncino recited an incantation, and his figure vanished from the battlefield.

The moment Peroroncino disappeared, Momonga arrived at the spot where Peroroncino had been. His speed was much faster than before.

Dominion Vehemence appeared behind Momonga and swung its sword at him.

Momonga dodged just in time.

As Momonga prepared to counterattack, Peroroncino reappeared on the other side of the arena.

"Maximaze Magic Chain Lightning Dragon!"

A roaring lightning dragon surged toward Momonga.

The spectators could only stare in shock, unable to believe what they were witnessing.

"Ninth-tier magic—Spatial Restriction!"

Pandora, who was observing, cast a spell that separated the battlefield from the audience, preventing the Chain Lightning Dragon from potentially harming any humans in the stands.

As Pandora frequently impersonated the Sorcerer King, and since the Empire was a vassal state of the Sorcerer Kingdom, it was his responsibility to protect the spectators.

At this moment, Momonga desperately wanted to dodge the Chain Lightning Dragon, but Dominion Vehemence charged forward, restraining him.

A momentary hesitation was all it took for Momonga to be hit by the Chain Lightning Dragon.

Dominion Vehemence also took some damage, but as a summoned creature, it wasn't concerned about being attacked. It would only carry out its master's orders.

Momonga didn't take much damage, as his true form was a skeleton, and lightning had little effect on him.

Dominion Vehemence charged at him again, ready to engage in another sword fight.

Without hesitation, Momonga launched a fierce counterattack on Dominion Vehemence.

As Dominion Vehemence was on the verge of being slain by Momonga's relentless strikes, Peroroncino's voice rang out.

"Eighth-tier magic—Summon Angel!"

At that moment, Peroroncino's mana bar had fully regenerated, thanks to the powerful mana recovery items. Peroroncino once again cast the spell to summon an angel.

"How shameless! Peroroncino," Momonga silently yelled in his mind.

"If you can't win, you can always surrender!" Peroroncino seemed to have noticed Momonga's thoughts and spoke up.

"It's too early to surrender now."

Momonga struck down the injured Dominion Vehemence with a single sword strike.

At that moment, another Dominion Vehemence charged toward him.

"Seventh-tier magic—Swamp Abyss!"

Just as Momonga was about to attack the angel, the ground beneath his feet turned into a swamp. He quickly leaped into the air, trying to jump out of the swamp's reach, but was struck by Dominion Vehemence and failed to escape the swamp's range.

The swamp seemed alive, with the mud gathering around Momonga's feet.

Momonga, unsure where from, drew out the Frost Pain.

"Freeze Blast!"

Several ice blocks appeared around Momonga, using them as leverage to push himself out of the swamp with one hand.

Dominion Vehemence charged at him, attempting to knock him back down.

"Freeze Blast!"

Dominion Vehemence was surrounded by ice blocks, its movement restricted. As it struggled, the ice blocks began to crack.

"Piercing Spear!"

Peroroncino threw a spear made of energy at Momonga.

Momonga withstood the attack head-on, simultaneously slaying the Dominion Vehemence.

"Ability Increase!"

"Ability Super Increase!"

"Perception Enhancement."

"Speed Limit Break!"

"Body of Domination."

"Berserk!"

While Momonga was killing Dominion Vehemence, Peroroncino wasn't idle either.

He applied several buffs to himself.

"How shameless! Taking advantage of the fact that I can't use magic!" Momonga roared inwardly.
