The Strongest Conquest System

\'How did this conversation suddenly become about me?!? We were talking about your nonchalant decision-making skills, not my love life!!!\'

"..."

Why was her life so difficult

*****

In a deep, expansive series of tunnels, tens of thousands of meters below the ground surface.

WAAA!

BOOOOOM!

A bright crimson aura flashed as the earth exploded upwards!

A giant scaly lizard over 200 meters in length was launched out of the ground before it ended up thousands of meters in the air!

An emotionless voice followed such a dramatic action as a man in a sunsettish-colored robe emerged from the rubble unscathed.

"I told you to stop running. So why didn\'t you stop?"

He asked while brushing off the debris on his robes.

\'What do you mean why didn\'t I stop??? You were trying to kill me!!!\'

The thoughts of the giant Earth Dragon spiraled around inside of its horned head as it swore it would call this man every single profanity out there if only it could speak the human language!

Azmond gazed up at the \'flying\' Earth Dragon before his expression became bored again.

"Whatever, just die so I can get this \'special mission\' over with."

Following such a cold series of words was the subsequent release of a crescent-shaped crimson energy slash!

OOOM!

The crescent launched toward the Earth Dragon, suspended in mid-air, before its two slitted eyes suddenly separated from one another!

*Spurt!*

Green and red blood sprayed out of the severed body of the Earth Dragon as both bisected pieces of its 200-meter-long body barreled down to the earth below!

*Ding!* *You have Gained Experience +9,500,000*

*Ding!* *You have completed the Active Quest \'Vanquish the Earth Dragon - E-Rank\'*

He got a few notification pop-ups that informed him of his confirmed kill and the completion of his quest. But what confused him a little was that the rank of the quest didn\'t quite match up with the rank of the beasts designated by the Adventurer\'s Association.

He realized this with all his past quests as well. Did the quest ranks designated by the System go through stricter ranking structures or something?

That must be it...

\'But why would the ranking system be so different from the System\'s?\'

However, his thoughts were soon interrupted by a loud sound ringing out.

A loud explosion echoed throughout the barren landscape when the two sides of the Earth Dragon made contact with the ground surface.

"It really does look similar to a western-style dragon." Azmond began to speak with a slightly intrigued expression as he made his way over to the \'corpse\' of the Earth Dragon.

Although its appearance was irrelevant now, it did have a few distinctive features that would remind one of a Western-styled dragon. Or rather, more specifically, those large spiraling horns and menacing-looking scaly features instantly gave away its distant heritage.

However, his attention was quickly attracted to the dark red color of the bissescted beast.

"This one is only a red-colored Earth Dragon; there must be stronger variations of this one in the kingdom of AquaRing, right?"

He had read in a book somewhere that there was a proper hierarchical system for the dragon speciesa ranking system that included all of the subspecies of dragons as well.

The ranking and corresponding power levels of dragons, from descending to ascending order, went like

Light Green Dark Green Yellow Orange Light Red Dark Red Light Purple Dark Purple Silver Gold Black

All of which corresponded to every Major Realm in the World of Asterion.

The \'Earth Dragon\' that he had just dispatched of would be classified as a \'dragon sub-species\' in the Dark Red Category.

Anything past the Yellow Rank Dragon could be considered quite rare in the entirety of Asterion, and only a few places would have monsters at the Dark Red Rank and above.

That wasn\'t to say that there weren\'t an uncountable number of monsters and beings at the Nascent Soul Realm; it was just that Dragon subspecies were few and far between.

That was not to mention the far superior pure-blood Dragons... They were practically an extinct race in the World Of Asterion!

Azmond was lucky enough to have witnessed and defeated a few dragon subspecies on his journey that led to the present. However, even he had only seen a handful of such dragons subspeciesdragon that only had very miniscule amounts of dragon blood in them.

Dragons are very lascivious and lustful creatures by nature and they mate with just about everything they can get their hands on. So why are their numbers so few, you might ask?

Well, that is because a countless number of years ago, dragons were nearly hunted to extinction by the combined efforts of every race on Asterion. During an Era that went down as the \'Age Of Extinction\'.

And as you could infer, it was dubbed such a name because of the extinction event that occurred with the dragons oh so long ago.

However, none of that was relevant for the current Azmond, so let us get back to it

.....

Azmond cut off the horns of the Earth Dragon and let Emu devour the rest of it. Something that clearly put a happy look on its slimy expression!

"Mhmu!" It squeaked before opening up its mouth to an unbelievably disproportionate size.

Chomp!

The corpse subsequently disappeared.

An apathetic voice followed such an unexplainable event: "Are you guys ready to head back to the Adventurer\'s Association?"

"Mhm," responded a beautiful woman in a white kimono and a fox mask.

She quickly moved over to the stalwart figure of Azmond before linking arms with him.

|Don\'t forget about me!!| exclaimed a gorgeous woman with long brown hair and big, round eyes.

She frolicked over to him before linking arms with his left side.

However, they weren\'t the only ones looking to take their spots back as a black and gold slime bounced on top of his long bed of raven black hair.

"Mhmu!" Emu chirped!
