While Menia’s attack ate at him from the inside, Tark the Lindwurm hurled a blast of Origin Flames mixed with the corrosive breath typical of his species that eroded both Vladion’s blood core and equipment.
’Once I get out of here, I’ll find all those who called me "worm" in the past and melt them with my acid flames. Not even "true Dragons" have such power. I’m not just one of Leegaain’s failures anymore, I’m the first of a new species that’s better than the original!’ He thought as he hurled Flames non-stop.
’Solus, analysis.’ Lith said.
’Something is off as f.u.c.k.’ She said, trying to make sense of the scene in front of them. ’Yes, they are Awakened. Yes, they are similar to a Guardian’s bloodline, but everything else is f.u.c.k.e.d up.
’No one has a core above deep blue and their body refining has been forcefully brought on par with their cores in a sloppy but efficient way. My guess is that those who already had a blue core died of Awakening, leaving those with a bright cyan as the only survivors.’
’Is that good news or bad news?’ Lith asked.
’Bad. Due to their mass, they are still stronger than you, and even though they are magically weaker, it’s not by much. On top of that, they might have a breakthrough at any moment now.’ Solus replied.
’Lith, I’ll take care of the Altered Sphinx. Life Maelstrom is a hassle to face if you don’t know what you’re doing so I’ll leave the Drake to you.’ Scarlett said via their mind link after the Eyes gave her a status report identical to Solus’s.
Like his companions, the Sphinx was overeager to get rid of the "lesser" part of his species. Kunia breathed a jet-stream of deep blue Origin Flames at Lith just because he could.
There was no strategy behind it, he just wanted to lose himself in the power of the Dragon bloodline and in the ecstasy that Ambrosia gave him.
’Seriously? What kind of a moron is he?’ Lith replied in kind and his violet-blue Origin Flames made short work of the opponent’s, carrying with them the power of the explosion that conflicting Flames caused.
Kunia screamed in pain as he snapped out of his delusion of invincibility. The Origin Flames ate at his body and mana at the same time while the explosion ripped several of his scales off.
Lith didn’t leave the Drake any time to recover and unleashed both of the Final Sunsets from his spell-holding ring, drowning him in a sea of black flames. Kunia’s Orichalc.u.m armor had already been weakened by the Origin Flames so he didn’t hesitate to sacrifice it to save his life.
He overcharged the pseudo core of the armor to cause a powerful explosion that spread outward from his skin, dealing him no damage and blasting all of Lith’s attack away.
"Cool spell, bro. Do you do it like this?" His Dragon eyes allowed him to understand tier five spells after seeing them once. Drunk on his newfound powers, Kunia unleashed five Final Sunsets, one for each one of his left hand’s fingers.
"Indeed. Can you copy this as well?" Lith didn’t falter and activated the penta-elemental tier four Spirit Spell, Piercing Explosion.
An emerald ray as thick as an arm pushed the Final Sunsets that Lith failed to dodge away thanks to its light and earth aspects while using water to cool down the flames that came too close for comfort.
Piercing Explosion’s tip spun on itself at high speed like a power drill thanks to the air aspect, having no problem getting through the Drake’s thick scales, bones, and muscles. Then, once it reached the middle of his body, it exploded while releasing the darkness aspect.
’F.u.c.k me sideways. Some Dragons are really capable of learning spells on the fly. Luckily, even if the Altered Drake survived, he had no way to copy Piercing Explosion unless someone had taught him how to weave Spirit Magic spells.’ Lith thought.
’Vladion can fend for himself. We need all the knowledge we can get to understand the nature of our real enemy.’ She thought, eager to avenge Mirim in the cruelest and most painful way.
"I hate you!" The Sphinx yelled as she used Life Maelstrom directly on her body and core, making them both evolve to the mid-blue level. frёewebηovel.cѳm
