Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 215 - Stronger, And Smarter

I turned from Zero and looked back out over the purple sea before I spoke. I wonder what memories I had of this world that were sealed away?

The only way that I would find out was by getting my memories back, and staying here was not helping that. There was nothing left to talk about, and I had spent enough time In this place.

"You have two choices right now, so fuck off, or I will squish you like a bug, Toothy. Nothing will change with me, no matter how many times you try because you refuse to bend. You expect everyone else too," I said and turned back around to the frosted vines, but Zero was already gone.

"Where did your statue go… woah!" Fireden started to say but then exclaimed, and I turned back to where I left him.

"Yeah, Zero was here, but he is gone now. Show me what you figured out," I said, and the world shifted back to the center of the maze.

This was all in my head, just like I am now, and that is why everything is so strange and seems out of place. That means that I should be able to control the outside world, but Zero is holding me from closing my hand around the world.

"How is he able to get inside of your head?" Fireden asked as he sat down and then returned the globe to me.

"I am going to hold on to that bit of information for now until I figure out some things. While I don't know if telling you or the others will make a difference. I would prefer to wait because I learned some important things. Now, explain to me what happened to the elements, besides Fire that seems to make up most of the planet," I explained to Fireden and mentally took a quarter of the globe away.

I looked inside the globe, but there was another sphere in the center of the planet that was black. The quarter that I took out didn't come out of the center of the globe, and no amount of concentrating changed it.

"That is where the real six are, but something is sealing them down there. The elements that are here are stagnant, and the energy they hold is just the remnants from before. Wataluga and Hydie will be fine, but the longer the creatures are here, the stronger they become," Fireden explained, and I nodded.

"Okay, we will have to come back then, but I am not sure how at the moment. Still, not important," I said as I tossed away the globe, sending it to a place to store the knowledge.

"Remember, You have already been here for over a day. Don't mess around. Kill them so we can get back," Fireden said, and I closed my eyes and then opened them.

The energy was still just starting to pour into me, and everyone was the same distance from when I closed my eyes. The dragon's pace was steadily getting faster, and I tried to think of a plan while my reserves were being filled.

[Dragons all can fly without flapping their wings using Magic, but they can also use magic to cast. On top of that, they have a second lung that uses the oxygen to breathe Fire.]

''Really? Is that all? Good lord, these things sound like they are going to be a nightmare, considering how fast they adjusted to my attack.''

[That isn't all. Dragon's are resistant to Magic, and physical attacks, Telepathic, and very smart. Much more than you or I.]

''Oh, fuck off! Are you kidding me? Three monsters that are smarter, bigger, and tougher than me, and I am just supposed to fight them?''

[Yeah, I wish you the best of luck. The creatures don't really have many weaknesses, and they are more than likely going to be working as a team since they are all red. The one thing that might be to your advantage is that because their colors are red. They tend to be the least intelligent of the colors, making them easy to frustrate, but they are the most vicious of the colors.]

Well, I could use that to my advantage, and I was almost full of energy. Considering how much power I held, I didn't really feel that much stronger.

[You won't until you need to use more than you usually do. It is a matter of how much you are using because you are not a mage, so you are not casting spells. Instead, you are controlling the elements and shaping them with your will.]

I stood up; the dragon's speed just became a lot faster and steadier, but they were still out of my sight. I turned and started to take lunging steps that must have looked ridiculous, but it was helping me get more limber.

I summoned Fireden, and he was only in the elemental body of Fire, not the suit from before.

"I hope you don't expect me to do that with you," Fireden laughed, and I straightened out with a grin, but they started to take long leaping strides towards the other that I could barely see.

Fireden started to float beside me and nodded as we got closer. This was really the best that I could do; just keep trying to get more muscular like the dragons had been.

I could feel them getting close, but they hadn't gotten any stronger since they started to fly. I started to push my jumping leaps, so I went higher in the air.

It was strange because the closer I got to the top of the canyon, the easier it got to jump even higher. The problem was the last time I jumped up, I went too high, and I had to get massive with Kali's Totem before coming down.

After shrinking down, Fireden grinned at me.

"Thought I was going to have to put you back together again there!" Fireden laughed, and I rolled my eyes as I rubbed the pins and needles of them.

"Z-Zack!" Nushi called to me awkwardly, and I turned around.
