"Where are the other two?" Shooting an arrow, I rolled sideways to dodge the fire of a nearby underling dragon.
Learning how to use a bow might have been a lot more rewarding than I thought.
I regretted not investing enough time in this.
"Handling the rest." Dick threw stones covered in an eerie red glow. He glowed as well. His ring must have been pretty overpowered too.
"I see. Guess we're stuck with all of these guys."
"Trouble really finds you huh? I guess I can't really complain. After all I'm the one who complained about life being too boring. But I'm cool with it, as long as it's fun. Oh and I can use my shield now, right?"
"You don't need permission from me. Do as you wish. And feel free to use any and every weapon you have." I fired more arrows.
The arrows weren't that effective though.
The dragon god was furious and threw fireballs at us but they were mostly blocked by Alisa's magic. "Why didn't you use ice back then?" I asked without thinking about it. If what she'd said was true then she had her own reasons for not telling us the truth or not using magic in particular.
But maybe she could have helped us that night.
"Ice wouldn't have worked against him. And I really didn't want to fight him. I was scared..." Alisa didn't want to think about the past, but honestly, I really wanted to know.
"You two, mind focusing?" Dick said.
I concentrated on my bow and shot arrows. Now was not the time to be thinking about bygones.
My aim got better. Being desperate helped. But compared to Dick I wasn't doing much damage. The guy was just throwing rocks and that was enough to damage the dragons around us. They didn't even have enough time to fly away. Four of them were now on the ground glaring at us and the three hovered to dodge, barely maintaining flight.
"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? HOW CAN YOU HAVE MY MANA?" the dragon god roared.
The god was basically just sitting back, watching the show, and letting his underlings handle it. But occasionally he was letting out roars: roars which were basically making my ears bleed. Couldn't the guy talk a bit more silently?
"He saying something?" Dick threw stones nonchalantly.
"Something about you having his mana," I said and fired off another arrow.
"I see. So you're the so-called god of courageous flames, Xerphas, the owner of this gem. Don't worry I take proper care."
Am I the only one who doesn't know their names and stuff? How do you people even memorize these things?
I quickly snapped back to reality and switched to the mystic blade. The bow wasn't doing much anyway. Besides, who had time to restock the arrows every two minutes? "Take care of the flying ones. I'll deal with the ones on the ground."
He chuckled loudly. "I suppose you mean that."
I grinned and dashed towards the closest dragon. It didn't expect me to be fast. I sliced it in a swift motion and it roared. These dragons weren't as big as the dragon god or the one which came for me outside the town. These were pretty small compared to those two.
Two other dragons threw flames at me while I was below the dragon. They didn't have any mercy for their comrades.
Too bad.
"Alisa!"
"Got it!"
I formed a dome just like last time. But my concentration and visualization got a lot better. And I was taking fire from only two dragons. The shield held. The fire stopped and I shoved my sword through the dragon's stomach I was under, to the heart. I didn't know if there was a heart here or not but there definitely was a lot of blood. It screeched and fell to the ground. Half of its body was already scorched from friendly fire: it didn't have a chance.
So they aren't fully immune to fire….
"I can't be outdone by that!" Dick took the shield of his back and charged at the two dragons' that were preparing to attack again. I took the chance and ran for the fourth one on the ground.
This one wasn't moving rapidly but following me with its eyes. Before I could get close it swung its claws and I had to jump backward.
I knew it wasn't going to be easy!
I didn't have much mana left but I still had plenty of potions. Stacking up with a storage ring probably was the best investment I'd ever made. Though it wasn't mine.
I drank a potion and focused my mana. Potions didn't have any mana restoring capabilities but they could replenish some of my stamina. That was enough for me to keep going. "Alisa I got this. Focus on blocking the big guy's fires."
"Right!"
A giant ball of light appeared over the dragon's head and then condensed. Not to ice but concentrated light. "You guys like fire, right?" It was a simple experiment. I always wondered what it'd be like to condense air and superheat it. Now I had my answer.
"Ray burst!" A burst of light fell on the dragon's head and it screeched uncontrollably before collapsing on the ground. Half of its face melted and it smelled horrible. Even worse than rotten flesh.
But the magic was very effective. Boriosa's research and my own knowledge had produced this: just this once I was glad I went to college. And I really liked the name too.
Maybe naming things mid-fight, was stupid, but if it helped me visualize, I sure wasn't complaining.
If it worked, it worked.
"Wait, what? How the hell did you do that?" Dick yelled. He pulled out a knife from a not-so-moving body of a dragon he was standing on top of. I looked up and the other three dragons weren't there. They were on the ground and met the same fate. If this guy wasn't overpowered then I didn't know what he even was.
He was Over-overpowered.
