Chapter 177: Surrounded
"Die, traitor!"
Alexandra had used the situation to escape her prison.
She went through many corridors, avoiding dragons. She had also lost them and was rather free, only to see one of the elders, whose presence made her shiver.
That was the elder whose word was the highest in The Dragon's absence.
He was the one to strip Alexandra from her levels and banish her to low-level grounds.
He wasn't alone. Many other dragons screamed at her after surrounding the dragon maid.
Alexandra was in a pinch with nowhere to go.
"People like you, who willingly become slaves of humans, don't have a place in our new era." The elder sighed and extended his hand, forming a wind blade.
He cut through Alexandra's clothes and flesh, drawing a wide laceration going across her torso. She screamed and closed her eyes, only to open them wide. Keeping her equilibrium, Alexandra panted and glared at the dragons.
The water danced around her, ready to protect her.
"It's unusual to see you so silent." The elder faintly smiled. "I expected to hear a lot of curses from you. How tame have you become, Alexandra?"
Winds went through the dragon maid, cutting into her flesh. Blood spurted in abundance, splashing around her. Alexandra once again felt like losing consciousness but held on and stood straight.
Not answering the elder, she crafted a plan in her mind to escape.
[You don't have enough mana to escape.]
The evil dragon said from the inside.
[Come and see me!]
Those words weren't the usual fit of anger. There was a commanding tone in the evil dragon's words, which forced Alexandra's consciousness to go inside her soul.
In this soul, both Alexandra's looked at themselves.
The evil dragon rushed at the dragon maid, toppling her backward. She saddled her and looked straight into her eyes, which were looking back at her.
In comparison, Alexandra Aquarisen's eyes rippled with fear.
"You don't fear that elder."
"You do."
"I do. You might think I would love to die at that man's hands. That's wrong! I'll decide on my death! Only me! That's why I'll kill myself!" Alexandra screamed.
That was a quite pitiful and loser-like declaration.
The dragon maid bit her lips and shouted at her back. "So go and kill yourself! I will survive, escape them, and return to master's side!"
"If I kill myself, you'll die, too." Alexandra Aquarisen sneered. "And that's what will save you."
A sudden understanding flashed through the dragon maid's eyes.
She understood the meaning of those words and what would soon happen. As though not having any means to stop or impede that plan, the dragon maid closed her eyes and let out tears.
Alexandra Aquarisen hovered her eyes on that crying face, then, with hatred coursing through her, she screamed. "I'll kill myself now! Only I can kill myself! Only I can decide on that — no one else!"
And with those words, Alexandra Aquarisen leaned down and bit the dragon maid's neck. In this soul world, no blood came out, and a significant part of the dragon maid's neck disappeared like that.
The dragon maid opened her tearful eyes and revealed her teeth. She soon did the same to the evil dragon, eating her.
Both blue dragons slowly eat themselves.
Their souls joined into one.
Their hearts became one.
Their minds and experiences became one.
And thus, Alexandra Aquarisen's level skyrocketed, and her stats refilled.

"Tremulous Aqua World!"
Alexandra Aquarisen's refilled stats cleansed her body of the wounds. She raised her hand high and summoned a grand technique that turned everything around her into water. That element churned around her, turning into a zone that no normal dragon could survive.
All those dragons shouting insults at her lost their footing and swirled around her, soon losing their lives.
Alexandra leveled up more and more.
She smiled widely and looked at the elder. "You like that, twat?"
The elder dragon was like an immovable mountain. He smiled at Alexandra's words and shook his head. Then, he took a step forward, his wind blades drawing empty stripes in the ground.
Alexandra expected that, though.
She controlled her water in a way it seemed like the wind formed grooves. And when the elder stepped on dry ground, she reverted her water element and trapped him inside.
Water gobbled up the elder.
Alexandra quickly spread her wings and escaped him.
The elder looked up and sighed. "I guess I can't kill her now that she's back."

[You have become the legendary vampire.]
[Your Gluttonous Vampire Bloodline has reached perfection.]
[You have absorbed the divine concept.]
[Your body physique has advanced, and you've received The Yin Physique, eligible to wield the time control.]
Celes became someone like Louise's equal. And with the next changes, it seemed like she was even better. Though it annoyed her that she had a body that was The Human Emperor's Queen, she could use that power to thwart his plans.
That evolution didn't go around Roger Dream's eyes.
He ignored The Black Dragon and descended before Celes and others.
"I can't believe my eyes." Roger Dream smiled at Louise, then looked at Celes. "Tell me, are you a virgin?"
Celes and Louise chortled and laughed aloud.
Celes' sworn sisters became tense, but someone that laughter appeased their fears.
Roger Dream squinted his eyes. "Answer me."
Celes shook her head. "I'm spoken for."
"So you don't deserve that power!" Roger Dream thrust his sword.
He froze time for a second so that he could get enough room to kill Celes in one go. But as he stopped that time, he saw that Celes moved just fine, utterly ignoring his divine concept. She coated her hand in her black and red bloody threads, then deflected the blow.
The time continued.
Louise soon rose to the skies and summoned her star.
The vampires stood below it, unaffected by that warmth. "I guess we will face him…."
"It's because you are too greedy." Louise rolled her eyes.
And then, The dragon maid descended behind them. "Mistresses!"
Celes looked at her and nodded with approval. "Protect them." She pointed at her sisters.
Alexandra looked at the three women and spat. "I'd rather fight that guy, but I can see I don't have a room in that battle… I'll keep them safe, then."
That change shocked Louise and Celes, but they shrugged it off and focused on The Human Emperor.
Soon, much more people joined their side.
Those were Peace Alliance's forces.
People like August and Lotus Eve were amidst them.
"That brings back some unpleasant memories." The old man said.
The Human Emperor, utterly untouched by the concept of aging, sneered. "You took that words out of my mouth, August."
