After Rudeus got reincarnated into a mystical world of swords and magic, he found that various races existed. Whether it be demons, dragons, or elves, these races had established their own system of doing things. On his journey through the demon continent, Rudeus came across Orsted, the Dragon God.
As a member of the esteemed dragon race, Orsted proved incredibly strong. Hitogami even declared him stronger than the first-ranked member of the seven powers despite him (Orsted) being ranked second. Because of his immense strength, one can only wonder if he is among the most powerful members of his race or if some are more powerful than him.
This article contains spoilers for the manga and light novels, so readers should proceed with caution.
8 Dora
The mother of Perugius Dola was no weakling. She was the Armored Dragon General and was in charge of training up the younglings of the Dragon Tribe. Dola loved her work and grew to train the younger members of the Dragon Tribe by using provocation and physical means, which she called effective.
As a member of the five Dragon Generals, Dola was incredibly strong. She excelled in summoning magic and hand-to-hand combat. She even invented spirit-summoning magic, which Perugius, her son, is now a master of. As someone who employed physical means to train others, Dora excelled at beating people into submission, and her son inherited her talent for combat.
7 Crystal
Of the five Dragon Generals, Crystal died first, and his death eventually led to the war between the dragons and the demons. Crystal did not die a natural death but was killed by Necrolia Nacrolia, one of the Eight Great Demon Kings. Despite his early death, Crystal was definitely not weak. The First Dragon God appointed him a Dragon General, showing his immense prowess as one of the strongest dragons.
Moreover, Crystal is skilled in teleportation magic and is the father of Perugius Dola. He was known as the Study Dragon General, so his knowledge of magic and its application was way ahead of his peers.
6 First Dragon God
The First Dragon God is undoubtedly one of the strongest members of the dragons. As Orsted's father and the leader of the five Dragon Gods, one can only imagine what kind of leader he was. During the Great War, after Hitogami took over the true Human God's appearance and tricked the five Dragon Generals into going against the First Dragon God, the First Dragon God was left weakened.
After he was weakened, Hitogami attacked. However, despite his weakened state, the First Dragon God banished Hitogami to the Void world. To banish a god as powerful as Hitogami in a weakened state, one can only wonder how powerful the First Dragon God was at his peak.
5 Orsted
Dragon God Orsted, the second of the seven great powers, is someone to be feared. Although he is the second of the seven great powers, Hitogami claimed that if Orsted and the first-ranked of the seven powers fought, Orsted would win.
Fans of the Mushoku Tensei anime series have already borne witness to a bit of Orsted's power. This happened when Orsted nonchalantly defeated Ruijerd, even though the latter was going all out. Moreover, Orsted is also shown to have various techniques at his disposal, as he was able to revive Rudeus after he killed him. With Orsted's strength, few in Mushoku Tensei can stand up to him.
4 Perugius Dola
Perugius Dola has only been briefly shown in the Mushoku Tensei anime series thus far. However, as the master of Almanfi, the spirit familiar that was able to go toe to toe against the Sword King Ghislaine, Perugius, he is not to be underestimated.
In the past, Perugius was one of the war heroes who fought against the Demon God Laplace. Due to the war that occurred long ago, Perugius hates members of the demon race; however, after some earn his appreciation, Perugius tends to be friendly with them. With his epithet, Armored Dragon King, Perugius has impressive defensive capabilities. Moreover, he is also skilled in using magic circles and teleportation.
3 Chaos
The Mad Dragon King, Chaos, certainly lived up to his reputation while he was alive. Chaos was a battle-action dragon that hated demons. He had a reputation for being stubborn and liked doing things his way. Apart from being one of the five Dragon Generals, Chaos was also the leader of the anti-demon faction, showing how strongly he disliked the demon race.
Despite his tendency to use his brawn more, Chaos was skilled with his hands in terms of crafting. During the dragon-demon war, Chaos was in charge of crafting the weapons and armor used to fight the demon race.
2 Szilard
As the one in charge when the First Dragon God was away, Szilard served as the leader of the five Dragon Generals. He came from the Saint Dragon Tribe and was known as the Holy Dragon General. As Szilard existed long ago, only a little about him is known in the present-day world of Mushoku Tensei.
However, few could match Szilard's power as the leader of the five Dragon Generals, even among his trusted Generals. Szilard was known to possess an indomitable will and a bigger frame in comparison to the other members of the Dragon Tribe. Like many, Szilard hated the demons; however, he never acted impulsively and always remained calm and rational.
1 Maxwell
While Maxwell might not have been the strongest Dragon General in terms of raw power, he certainly ranked among the top in terms of experience. The Dark Dragon General, Maxwell, was in charge of keeping monsters away from the capital city of Kayos in the Dragon Tribe.
This exposed him to constant battles, enabling him to rack up experience and immense survival instincts. Many secretly jeered at Maxwell behind his back; however, those who truly knew him knew the Dragon Tribe was immensely safe due to much on his part. Because of his immense strength and efforts, very few members of the Dragon Tribe died to monsters as they matured.
