I check Aika's stats.

<Ultimate Skills: Tyrant Slayer, Demon Slayer, Undead Slayer, Evil Slayer, Radiant Ruby Supernova>

So this is her true power. For her to not have Dragon Slayer, she must not have killed one.

"<So, your transformation was instant.>" I said. "<What a surprise, it usually takes around a minute for each person in a sequence and the enemies just wait.>"

Aika, Aoi, and Hyori went stiff from my statement. Soon, I realized what I said is true.

"<No way...seriously?>" I said, cringing. "<I understand the fictional stance, but not in practice.>"

"<We are NOT fictional!>" Aika yelled, red in the face.

*Swoosh!*

I rushed towards Aika to perform a reverse rising kick to push her away from the two so I could hold at least one of them hostage.

*BZOOOSSHH!!*

I used Tempest Magic on my right leg to kick her away to proceed. That is until I felt something was off.

I kicked a sword instead of a body. The crazier part is that Aika was unharmed.

The blade that I kicked is a giant greatsword with a shiny ruby blade with a shade of pink. The blade itself is bigger than herself and yet she lifts it as it was nothing.

"<Flare Up! Ruby Buster!>" Aika yelled.

*FWOOSH!!*

The sword summoned its flames at my leg and the heat from it was unlike before. It was burning hot, hotter than the time I was close to a volcano.

"<Sapphire Water, transform!>"

"<Emerald Wind, transform!>"

Aoi and Hyori shouted their commands and pillars of Wind and Water bursts upward.

"Yaaaah!" Aika yelled again to attack me again with her greatsword. She flew forwards to give a downward slash.

Just after she raised her sword, I dashed forward to catch her blade before she swings it.

*Clash!*

I stopped her blade with my left hand and imbued my right hand with Lightning Magic.

*Kzzzt!*

*SPLASH!*

A stream of water strikes my electrified hand. That electricity that was there is no more.

"Pure Water." I thought to myself.

"<Surge Forth! Sapphire Saber!>" Aoi yelled. A blue light flashed in her right hand and created a sword. Its blade is the color of sapphire and has a hand basket as well with the texture of a sea shell.

I check the stats of Aoi.

And then Hyori.

<Name: Hyori Kazama>

<Gender: Female>

<Race: Outworlder>

<Rank: X+9>

<Hero Level: 2>

<Skills: Wind Magic-LC, Healing Magic-XXX, Hyperspeed Regeneration, Wind Nullification, Light Nullification, Poison Nullification, Perception, Appraisal, Hyper Strength, Hyper Endurance, Ultra Magic, Ultra Resistance, Extreme Speed, Hyper Body Refinement, Bravery>

<Ultimate Skills: Tyrant Slayer, Demon Slayer, Undead Slayer, Radiant Emerald Tempest>

This time, I'm alone and I don't think Alden would be able to get to me as he is occupied with other heroes.

That Pure Water trait is troubling as it can nullify my Lightning Magic. If I am going to use Fusion magic like Tempest, Storm, or Tidal, I need a bit of time.

"<Storm forth! Emerald Rings!>" Hyori yelled.

*Swoosh!*

Hyori threw her rings at me that is being covered in razor sharp winds. I flew towards her as the rings come towards me.

*Pzzzing!*

The rings bounced off of my shoulders that showed human skin. It's obvious that I am still a dragon regardless.

"<Eeeek! It bounced off of her!?>" Hyori began to panic.

I imbued my right hand with Lightning Magic to electrocute her.

"<Sapphire Lance!>" Aoi yelled.

She summons a large spear of ice at me. The spear is moving at a fast rate, but it's trajectory is simple.

I twist my body and turned towards it and flew just above the spear, missing me. However, I felt something dragging me downwards.

*Krrrk!*

Frost began encroaching my wings, hindering my ability to fly. The spear Aoi launched was cold enough to freeze my wings despite it not touching it.

[Warning. Your wings are beginning to freeze rapidly.]

Damn, this could be a problem.

"<No way, she can barely dodge at that distance!?>" Aoi exclaimed.

"<Jump, Aoi-chan!>" Aika yelled.

Aoi performs a backflip so that I see Eika's sword pointing at me. The sword ignites in flames and thrusts forward.

If I get Aika to hit me with enough flames, I could get Fire Resistance and Fire Magic. Then, get my Plasma Magic.

"<Flame Vortex!>" Aika yelled.

*FRWOOOSH!!*

The flames engulfs me whole. I can feel the intense heat of the flames, hotter than the volcano that I was once located. My flesh began boiling and my scales began peeling.

[Warning! You are burning!]

[Hidden Skill unlocked. Fire Resistance.]

Good, keep going. I need to get Fire Magic to be able to get Plasma Magic.

"<Hyori-chan, with me!>" Aika exclaimed.

"<Yeah!>" Hyori nodded.

Aika and Hyori flew up in the air and Aoi began retreating.

"<Emerald Tornado!>"

*GWOOOOOSH!!!*

A violent tornado exploded forth, intensifying the flames.

"Rrrgh!" I growled as I continued to endure the flames and the cutting wind.

[Warning, you are burning!]

<"Ruby Flame Pillar!">

*VWO-BOOOOM!!*

An even bigger inferno rages at my location, intensifying the heat even further. More of my flesh began burning and peeling away from the sheer intensity.

Hyori and Aika holds the greatsword together and fuses their Fire and Wind element together to conjure a burning tornado on the blade.

"<Blow away the evil and burn away the darkness! Inferno Tempest!>" Aika and Hyori yelled.

*FWRA-BWOOOOSH!!!*

They swung down the sword and created a bigger tornado of flames tearing into the mountain, incinerating everything in its path.

Yet, I remained in there taking the full brunt of that attack.

"<That dragon is definitely weaker than the one we fought. But she is faster and smarter.>" Aika said.

"<My Wind Magic doesn't work on her, especially my weapons.>" Hyori said.

"<But she's not resistant to Fire.>" Aika said.

"<Did you get her!?>" Aoi asked as the two gently float down on the ground.

"<This move defeated even the Frost Giant King, Merzan. I doubt Za'trika can as well.>" Aika said.

[High Fire Resistance acquired.]

[Fire Magic-XX acquired.]

Why would they say such things that triggers death flags? Well, I can't say that I am surprised as it always happens when it comes to such things.

And they're gonna pay for it dearly.

*Ding!* *Ding!*

[Conditions Met. Plasma Magic-X, Plasma Resistance acquired.]

[Secret Evolution available. Tyrant Plasma Storm Dragon.]

"Evolution." I said.

[Acknowledged. Now evolving...]
