"I'm pretty sure you can handle everything else. But would you mind paying a little attention?"
At that moment another dragon almost shoved its head on top of him, trying to put Dick in its mouth.
Dick raised his shield without looking and punched a hole in the dragon's mouth. The dragon just fell on the ground without making any fuss. He walked out of there with blood dripping all over. "Now, what did you do! It was so cool!" I had no idea what he was talking about. His personality changed drastically as I changed my gender. Was he even the same guy? "And that name 'Ray burst!" was so cool!"
Don't tell me you were looking at me while fighting….
I guess he was a hard-core gamer at heart.
"I just made plasma from the air by concentrating holy magic, like lasers."
And I was really glad I took my first semester of physics.
"That's so cool. But what's a plasma?" Dick said. His eyes sparkled.
The boss dragon roared excruciatingly loud and released all its fire on Dick. But again Dick blocked it with his shield. That shield was something else.
Dick didn't even give the dragon a second glance. His focus was totally on me.
"Unfortunately I don't have time to give you a physics lesson. Let's beat this thing and get it over with." But I had better things to worry about.
"Suppose I'll agree with you. But you'll have to tell me later, okay?" I definitely had Dick's attention, no doubt.
The surroundings seemed cold. I turned to Alisa and she stood behind me with her eyes closed. Her forehead flashed blue symbols and she opened her eyes. Her eyes were bluer than my navy blue jeans. "This is the only thing I can do," She mumbled.
She touched my back and the symbols transferred to my hands. She fainted. "Alisa!" I held her before she could fall. I laid her on the ground and turned to the dragon.
I won't let you down.
I didn't know what she did, but the feeling was similar to when I touched the azure Godstone. And if she trusted me with this power, I had to meet that expectation.
"Let's get this over with once and for all."
The dragon God roared even louder. I was amazed at how much punishment my ears could take. "I'm going to tear you limb from limb!"
"Is he saying something?" Dick asked.
"Oh, he's just saying he'd like to have tea with you."
"Yeah right!" He giggled and dashed forward. He threw a rock but the dragon deflected it. This one's scales were rather tough. But dick grinned and slashed the dragon with his knife.
The dragon flicked him back with its tail.
"Okay, that thing's different." Dick got up immediately and was more or less unscathed.
There was a small wound where Dick had attacked. It was working.
But I was different as well. The symbols on my hand gave me the same kind of mana that the stone had given me. Which meant my left hand was about to be restored.
I was a little disappointed as it didn't happen.
Only one dragon stood by the dragon God- Xerphas.
At this point, the name kind of got ingrained in my head.
"Oh well." I dashed forward without thinking and evaded the tail. I slashed Xerpha's scales and backtracked as it threw its breath at me. It happened fast but I managed to make contact where Dick had attacked: its shell cracked. But running around like that, kind of made me feel faint.
Dick made his way to the other dragon and slashed its head off with a sword. I'd never seen that sword. Just where was he hiding it? When I looked back he grinned as if saying- 'It's not your business.
I quickly backtracked as the dragon god almost squashed me.
Dick stood by my side and stared Xerphas down. "I've been wondering. How are you still moving? I mean your left shoulder is dislocated and I could sense that some of your bones are broken too. How the hell are you moving?"
I believed him. I had no reason not to. So I told him. "Just how OP are you? You can tell I'm broke just by looking at me!" I was definitely shocked if nothing else. "Anyway, I've got a curse you see. Regeneration curse I think it's called. And if you haven't realized already, I have been drinking potions this whole time."
I was in serious pain. But since I wasn't complaining, Dick might have assumed I was totally fine. But I was not totally fine. NO! It hurt!
Dick didn't buy that though.
"When you said you heal fast, I thought you were just saying that like you had a good immune system. But seriously? And you called me OP!?" He was freaking out. Xerphas was a little staggered by my attack but it recovered as well. We didn't have time to discuss something like this. "You can understand monsters. You can heal faster than anyone. You have the best frigging weapons anyone can get: and you can move the sword like it's nothing. You have cheat stones! You even got an elixir from an undead! Just who's dick did you suck to get that kind of luck and where do I meet him!!?"
Calm down, buddy.
I almost chuckled, but didn't he realize my luck was the worst?
"Can we focus on the battle please?"
The dragon roared at us as it fully recovered and glared.
"Now I have another reason to be jealous of you," Dick mumbled. He looked kind of pissed. He held his hand up front. "Fiery blaze!" A monstrous fire surrounded the dragon and it roared. "I thought you liked flames. Is it too hot for your preference?"
I guess this was the little magic he was talking about. It was definitely a lot stronger than Lianne's magic if nothing else.
He decided to put his rage elsewhere. I was glad we weren't enemies. However, he was a sharp one. So sharp, that from here on out I needed to be wary.
And this scale of magic, this scale was definitely nothing to sneeze at. He was strong.
"And I went and called friends as backup too. Now, what'd I tell them?" Not to mention he whined a lot.
The dragon fell to the ground and twitched. It almost seemed to be over.
"Wait, you have friends?" I said, clearly confused.
"Of course I do! You didn't think you were my only friend did you?"
"Not at all…" I diverted my gaze. I might or might not have assumed that.
"You're eyes speak more than your mouth." He looked at the dragon which didn't roar for a while and was now lying in the fire. But something wasn't right. "I didn't think it'd end this easily though."
"You just had to say that huh? Did no one teach you not to set up flags like that?"
I had a bad feeling. And we were dealing with a God. I'd already seen how scary gods were so I couldn't help but be skeptical.
Besides even after taking a hell of amount of torture Damsel had seemingly revived itself. Who was to say, the same couldn't happen with this guy?
"Nonsense. It's not like… we-are-in-a movie…." Halfway through, Dick's speech slowed down as he looked up. He stuttered.
I gulped and followed his gaze. There were loads and loads of stuff in the sky.
"You didn't think it'd end that easily did you, foolish mortals?" A blood-thirsty voice came from behind me. I looked back and found Ashirnae, who was sitting on top of a house grinning at me. But I didn't care about him. My full attention was too focused on the sky. "You did pretty good though. You almost came close to my expectations."
There were hundreds- no thousands of dragons up in the sky. If a few was enough to destroy a city this big, I couldn't imagine what thousands of these things could have done. But something was different. The dragons were all bones and they had red glowing eyes.
Red eyes always ended up reminding me of the first night: the night I came to this world.
They're not alive.
Moments later my nostrils complained of rot and rancid scent. There was no doubt about it. We had an army of undead to contend with.
The dragon god dismissed all the fire with a heavy breath and glared at us. "I will erase this entire country starting with this city."
Looks like this one wasn't down either.
I kind of figured. It was too easy and we kind of let our minds fool us into thinking it could have been over just as simple as that.
"Umm Dick. I think your friends would do well to arrive as quickly as they could."
"Yeah, no shit. And who's that behind us? What he want?" Dick was sweating, this wasn't good.
That many dragons certainly weren't something we could handle. This city was done for. But we had to do something about this boss dragon first, or we'd get nowhere.
"First deal with this. And that guy's probably just going to watch. So we shouldn't worry." I was definitely being a lot more optimistic than I should have.
"You really know weird people don't you?"
I tried to smile but given my throbbing heart, it might have warped into something incomprehensible.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
