Chapter 27 - Big Meat Incoming
Written By Curiostyx
~〈The Wyrm〉~
—ROAR~!*
A burst of bellowing roars resounded in the background as the Wyrm and his Minion zoomed across the stratum, running away after being given a chance to do so.
The Overlord Dragon had abandoned chase, opting to send one of his less important Minions instead; a Gunerave, otherwise known as an Eel.
The Eel was quite fast, dangerously so even on solid ground... Its Speed Stat must be in the 500s, at least—the Wyrm estimated.
A quick Appraisal on the run confirmed this, as well as the bleak future that the pair had to face...

~~~
Granted, it was but a level 1 Monster, though one should still remember that a level 1 Superman would always be stronger than a level 100 Scooby Doo by default...
Of course, the Wyrm and his Minion hadn't been manufactured using the preset factory settings—He was built differently, born bizarre, damn it!
'Larry! Jump like you're about to abandon Yoshi...' The Wyrm delayed the order as the Eel got up on their asses, pouncing from behind like a predatory feline in the savannah...
'....Now!!!' As if imitating the red-colored plumber himself, Larry took no hesitation in jumping according to his Master's order.
Of course, unlike the original source material, no friendships hadn't been broken in the process... Larry had better standards at this point.
—SNAP~!*
The Eel could only taste hot air in his mouth as he attempted to lunge and rip apart these annoying crustaceans... Only to miss by a significant margin as the pair jumped up into the air, barely evading the attack
'Now, feel the wrath of our combined ass power...!!!' The Wyrm mentally shouted as the combined force of him and Larry descended upon the poor Eel's head.
—BAAM~!*
A comical boom resounded through the surroundings as the Eel felt his skull crack after the impact...
The effect on the Wyrm and his Minion's backsides couldn't be ignored, but he ignored it anyways as the Wyrm leaped into the air, clearly about to take advantage of the Eel's momentarily dazed awareness.
The Wyrm raised his dagger-like arms in mid-air as Magical Power surged through his body, reinforcing his arms with a burst of strength.
At this very moment, he activated all of his Attack Skills, focusing them on his arms. Heretic Attack gave his already reinforced claws torture-inducing stabs.
Acid Attack was activated as well, completely ignoring his lack of resistance to the element...
The Wyrm couldn't care less as his arms were enveloped in a surge of pain, dipped in sulfuric acid as if it were a Mcdonald's nugget dipped in BQ sauce...
2 spheres of bright light manifested in front of his arms. With a pair of Expels, the balls were penetrated deeply by his dagger arms.
He then used another burst of Expels to launch his new combo claw back down to the Eel.
—RAAAGH~!*
The Eel released an agonized scream as the Wyrm's claws stabbed through his right eye.
「The Skill ~Piercing Enhancement LV 1~ has been acquired.」
The reinforced power of the dagger arms made the attack possible, while the combined force of acid and heresy surged through the Eel's right eye, burning it to crisp.
「The Skill ~Energy Attack LV 1~ has been acquired.」
The Wyrm's balls explode upon impact, dying the Eel's face a hue of pure white as the light enveloped his non-existent field of vision.
「The Skill ~Light Magic~ has leveled up, LV raised to 2.」
「Additionally, the Skill ~Light Attack LV 1~ has been acquired.」
The Wyrm had made the Eel half-blind, reducing the Eel's overall HP by 350 points or so...
A Critical Hit!!!
—ROOOAAAR~!*
The Eel released yet another booming roar, this time the panic was clear in his voice... The guy was scared, scared for his life!!!
Rightfully so as the Wyrm was sent flying into the air once more, this time it had been due to the half-blind Eel knocking him away.
Larry hadn't been so fortunate... With a thud, the Lobster was enveloped in the Eel's tight grip, crushed under the sandwich-like pressure of its jaws.
—Crunch~!*
The Lobster screamed in pain as his entire lower half had been ripped apart, torn asunder as the Eel initiated a type of dance iconic to crocodilians...
The Death Roll!!!
"AagHAGha!!! Master... mAstaEr!!!" The Lobster called out in panic as his Pain Resistance Skill experienced back-to-back level-ups.
'Larry! Fuck... Don't leave me, you bastard!!!' The Wyrm practically screamed as his form was launched back from the sky, using one last Expel to initiate a deadly finishing move...
His form once again got strengthened and reinforced as Magic Power covered him from head to toe. His SP was also burned in the process, utilizing his new Energy Attack Skill to its limits.
His body burned in the acidic jelly as it stuck to him like a baby koala riding upon its mother. A purplish hue covered the once-green acid, the signature color of heretical corruption.
A faint twilight enveloped the Wyrm in pure white as his form accelerated through the air, the Magic clearly being put to use to increase his speed by leaps and bounds.
The Wyrm opened his mouth, revealing what could be called a tiny ball of pure force inside. It was a Fireball imbued with Heresy, Acid, Light, Physical Energy, and pure Magic Power, compressing it into an almost impossible Sphere of Annihilation.
Such a ridiculous Spell would have been considered too extra, and it was. It wouldn't even last more than 10 seconds before collapsing in on itself and producing a huge explosion.
But the Wyrm did not need more than 10 seconds...
The Wyrm kept the Sphere of Annihilation in his mouth as his form zoomed through the wind, injecting more and more power into it until his MP ran out.
Then, it became a simple matter.
'BIG MEAT INCOMING!!!' The Wyrm screamed out as his Magic-covered body impacted the Eel straight in his forehead, launching the Sphere of Annihilation at the very last second.
—BOOOAAAM~!!!***
The countless critters in the surrounding area all fled as what could be called a miniature mushroom cloud the size of a small apartment appeared on the horizon, giving the Overlord Dragon quite a show as he watched with amusement.

The Wyrm passed out before he could hear the rest of Voice-chan's words.

"With Larry being half-severed, who's gonna save our Wyrm? Find out in the next episode of Dragon Deeaz Nuts—" -Remark
Stones and I shall lay more chaps.
Somehow, a lot of people can't read since they think the aux chap is a prologue for this fic. It's not, it's for another one I will be making in the future.
