Chapter 38 - Vs Dragon

Written By Dr. Armstrong

~〈The Wyrm〉~

—BAAM~!*

The Wyrm leaped down from the ceiling as an Earthen Spike erupted from the very ground he had stood upside down upon.

A dimensional rift opened up below him as the Earth Dragon leaped out to confront the Wyrm in mid-air.

He was trapped, sandwiched between the Earthen Spear and its Caster.

"What a fucking dumbass..." The Wyrm commented before vanishing into thin air, reappearing on another side of the battlefield.

The Dragon didn't dodge the Earthen Spear instead, she manipulated the Spear and condensed it into a large ball of rock, completely removing its piercing capabilities.

—Woosh~!*

Like a Baseball bat, the Dragon struck the Earthen Ball in the Wyrm's direction, the impact sending it flying as it broke through the sound barrier.

"!!!" Once again the world around him entered slow motion as he regarded his options.

Looking at the Dragon's Stats, it seems that the Dimensional Maneuvering Skill she had consumed a rather large amount of SP as she only had half of her remaining SP, not counting her Reserves...

Of course, this was also because of Sloth's effects. Trying to win a battle of endurance against the Ruler of Sloth was always an uphill battle...

The Teleport Spell used up a considerable amount of MP but because he had Sloth, this really wasn't much of a problem as he could still last longer than the She-Dragon he was fighting with.

So the optimal strategy would just be to keep using Teleport until she runs out of juice... But the Wyrm recognized the fact the Dragon was very much capable of changing her fighting strategy as any Wyrm who had ascended to Dragonhood had to be fiercely intelligent... At least, in fighting terms.

...Or perhaps he was just overthinking it, a byproduct of him not having to control his body anymore.

'Thanks, bro.' Of course, he was grateful for it.

'Yeah, whatever.' Pilot responded as a Spell Circuit manifested above the Wyrm's head... A Summoning Circle.

「The Skill ~Parallel Minds~ has leveled up. LV raised to 2.」

'Hello—'

'Shut the fuck up!' 2×

'ok...'

—Ripple~Woosh~!*

Out of the Summoning Circle, an all too familiar figure leaped out as the roaring of thunder followed him.

The First Minion, Larry.

—BOOOM~!!!***

The concentrated ball of rock exploded into a burst of dust and earth as the electrifying form of Larry punched through the damn thing, breaking it to pieces like he was some kind of Karate Master.

Standing atop 3 pairs of strong legs, Larry possessed little resemblance to his previous body. His pincers had changed into the shape of Boxing Gloves, becoming perfect blunt weapons for the big beast.

The guy was about the size of a Rhino. His head had flattened and compressed, very akin to a WW2 Soldier's helmet. Various colorful scales adorned his body, with red and blue being the most predominant color of the bunch.

He was a veritable beast of a tank, like a crustacean Ronnie Coleman...

"DIE, DRAGON!" Larry roared out as he sent a fist imbued with electricity in the Dragon's direction.

—WOOSH~!*

A strike of Lightning was sent hurling toward the Earth Dragon with alarming speeds, a speed that only the Light Element could match.

"!!!" The Dragon had a distressed expression as the floor beneath her cracked and shattered into a Rift.

'Now's your time to shine, new guy!!!' Sage and Pilot screamed out simultaneously as Wiz jumped out from the Wyrm's shadow, numerous Spell Circuits manifested as the Captain of Magic took his rightful seat at the mental roundtable.

A nearby wall rippled as the very fabrics of reality were torn open, the front portion of the Dragon emerging out of the space hole.

—DIIIINNNG~!*

Countless beams of purple-green light shot out to the hole, and an enormous barrage of similarly colored light arrows supported them.

Gairasa became even more distressed as she hesitated jumping out and even considered returning to where she had originated...

—CRASH~BOOM~!*

"RAAAGGH!!!" This brief moment of hesitation was enough for the fast-moving thunderbolt to crash right into her draconic ass, blowing her back out with a thunderous boom.

The lighting strike had left the Earth Dragon momentarily stunned and paralyzed, though as for the actual damage, it was actually nothing special as Larry had just recently learned this move, and Earth had a natural advantage against Lightning, anyway...

But of course, that was all part of the plan.

—BAAAAMMMM~!!!***

It had been nothing but a distraction for the real killer move...

"AAAGAHAAAGAH!!!" It was like a rain of light sent from Heaven itself, showering down upon the lowly Dragon of the Earth.

It was like utter chaos, various elements deviously fused together to create an ungodly storm of pure magical might. Such Spells were the definition of instability, yet they still somehow work simply because they were never meant for order.

As the electricity shocked her from behind, the combined might of heretical burning light filled to the brim with acidic and gravitational properties bombarded her from the front.

The poor Dragon had to endure all of this whilst still being halfway inside a Portal...

Amidst the chaos, the Wyrm suddenly blinked out from existence before blinking back above the Dragon's spatial rift, his dagger-like right arm glowing a menacing light filled with all sorts of colors, like a rainbow.

It felt like he had just dipped his limb inside the primordial soup as the chaotic force of all the elements under his command imbued themselves onto his arm.

Such a disgusting combination of elemental force naturally had some side effects, which were clear to see as he was beginning to see literal eyes and tentacles growing on his limb, a severe case of hazardous mutations.

The Wyrm struck down with his mutated arm, smiting the spatial rift with overwhelming elemental energy.

Such a rift was never meant to last long, it was basically considered as a festering wound by the natural world, which was why permanent portals are almost impossible... Combined that fact with the surge of elemental power the Wyrm had given it and... Well, yeah.

—CRACK...CRACK...CRACK

"N-No...!" The Dragon realized all too late as she forced her body to jump out despite the intense pressure pushing her from both sides.

—SLICE~!*

Almost, she had almost just died like that.

—Squirt...Squirt...

Streams of blood dribbled down from her backside, which was now missing its most distinctive feature...

The tail.
