Tio and other members of dragon race could transform into dragon was because they as a race had “dragonification factor” mixed into their soul.
That story was something that Hajime and Tio had confirmed between them during the time before the final battle in Tortus, when Tio was learning how to transform other races into black dragon as her new magic.
After all, that magic worked by Tio duplicating her “dragon factor” and inserting it into the target.
「Not to mention, as the result of you continuously enduring the interference of the “Dragon”, you became able to sense your “dragon’s factor” even stronger than before──no, you became able to sense “dragon’s factor” even in other people. Anyone else would also easily reach the same idea if they know that.」
Hajime shrugged and easily spoke something absurd.
「──Even Tio, should be able to do similar thing even if not to the same degree like the “Dragon” shouldn’t she? That kinda idea.」
『Uumu, that might be so thanks to the hindsight but……』
To be talked like she was at the same rank like Hajime, with his Creator disposition, whose inventiveness could be said to be his greatest strength without exaggeration……a strained laugh seeped into Tio’s tone.
『It’s the power of a monster that couldst destroy not only a planet but even the universe thou realize? Normally, nobody wouldst dare to think that, I couldst also do the same thing!』
「That so?」
That was so. An out of bounds existence that had the means to do “pseudo-revival and subordination” of mythological dragons, not only existing dragons, and to do it in a world-wide scale. Normally nobody would easily reach an idea of comparing themselves to such existence. And even if somebody could, they wouldn’t go as far as carrying out the idea.
It was the same like someone who had a hobby of doing some kind of sports, thinking 「I can also do something like that am I not?」 after watching a godlike-feat of an undisputed and absolute champion of that sport who had left their name in history.
But, even though Tio’s expression convulsed as she said 「That’s impossible」 when she first heard the idea, Hajime told her 「It’s possible if it’s Tio」 with a strange conviction.
「But, thinking it again it’s not that unreasonable of an idea right? You can even transform other race into black dragon and turn them into your subordinate. Controlling power-wise, that’s a similar thing with the “Dragon”’s authority right?」
『Goshujin-sama spoke like it’s so simple……well, I’m honestly happy that thou hath such high expectation on me though.』
「Yeah, I have high hopes for you. I also trust you.」
If it was only limited to dragon race, her controlling power was an overwhelming one that surpassed “Divine Word”.
She had the absolute advantage even if she was facing a being that possessed divinity.
It was possible if it was Tio. She would answer his expectation. Definitely. Then──
「You’ll be able to suppress even the “Dragon”. If it’s Tio then no doubt about it. No, it’s absolutely so.」
『As I thought, that art Goshujin-sama’s final objective.』
