Chapter 242 Draco Galarian King Alpha And Beta
Chapter 242 Draco Galarian King Alpha And Beta
"You humans are always interesting." The Draco Galarian King commented as it blocked Leah's sword and counterattacked with slamming its head onto her. "There's so much of knowledge in those libraries. This is why I love to spend time at Gaia."
Leah flew back for a dozen meters before she gains her footing on the ground and dashed towards it, "Then, you should have stayed back there and lived a quiet life. Alas, you chose to become greedy about power and invite your death."
Holding the sword tightly, she poured soul energy into it and slashed rapidly at the empty air numerous times, creating more than thirty small energy arcs that are aimed at the target in a wide range. After launching the attacks, she stopped in the midway.
She knew the one standing before her is no longer the same one as the one she defeated in the finals. After eating up a peak-rank-6 platinum grade beast from another region, it made a breakthrough to the Upper Elite realm, and its current maximum strength was soared to high-rank-7. The fact that it almost killed the boss of this level-3 region with ease tells how strong her enemy is. Moreover, the Draco Galarian was not only stronger but also faster in its original form.
With the power behind each attack being only in the Lower Elite realm (rank-4), she hoped for the beast to take them easily and block it so that she merges all of them at the last second, launching a surprise attack.
To her surprise, the Draco Galarian didn't block the attack and took a more cautious approach despite being confident that it was far stronger than its enemies.
Flapping its wings, it flew upwards and let these tiny energy attacks pass by it and hit a rock and destroy it, spilling snow nearby. Seeing how the enemy doesn't appear to be arrogant, Leah's facial expression changed.
Her enemy's actions made her change her strategy quickly and she proceeded to perform a popular advanced sealing technique, the Restrictive Chains that not only restrict one's movements but also drain their soul energy and stamina.
From the memories of Vann and Leonard, the beast has the knowledge of known runes from basic to advanced, although both of them are not talented in sealing techniques.
As soon as Leah was done with halfway, it realized what the seal going to be. Obviously, it doesn't want to wait for the purple energy chains to erupt from the ground from all the sides and capture it. So, it decided to interrupt her.
The Draco Galarian opened its mouth and spit a golden fireball at Leah. Looking at it, the princess of Camelot was quick to leave the sword and raised her right hand. As the sword fell on the ground, Leah activated Reflection with its right palm facing the fireball.
The fireball made its way towards her and just as it was about to hit her, to the beast's surprise, all of a sudden, the golden fireball stopped when it was only one centimeter away from her. Even if it doesn't hit her, the fiery hot flames on the fireball usually should have affected her but they didn't and instead, turned into purple fireball within a couple of seconds before firing back at the beast in the air.
"She can reflect even this?" The Draco Galarian remembered the semi-finals of the tournament and its eyes widened in surprise. "How is it possible?"
Just like how Azzy sees the death of other people, how Claire uses her golden wings to fly, and how Aclein Academy's Rune subject teacher Exea uses her magical voice to attract every listener, Leah has her own unique passive skill she was born with. It is to reflect the attacks aimed at her back to the enemy. From the memories of Vann, the Draco Galarian very well knew of the data available on her.
The strangest thing here is that like every unique passive skill, the Reflection skill also has its own limitations. One, it can only reflect the attack that doesn't surpass Leah's own maximum soul power. Two, it can only reflect the ranged energy attacks.
Under Melee attacks, it will become useless. And what it now reflected is a ranged Energy attack. However, the Draco Galarian soul power is around 3 million while Leah's soul power is supposed to be 999 thousand. Then, how did she do it?
Was the data that Moon Academy gathered on her was wrong? Or was she suppressing her soul power? The second possibility seems very unlikely as the Celestial grade beasts can sense the real amount of soul power. Even if she suppresses her realm, she couldn't hide it from the Draco Galarian King.
The beast didn't understand how she did it. Whatever the case, it realized that it can't get near to her because of the seal and neither was able to attack from far away because it will be reflected.
What to do? The beast was racking its brain to think of a solution.
It was then, its eyes landed on Claire who was guarding a dazed Azzy. With no black wolf being seen anywhere, an idea popped up in its head.
<strong>"Soul skill: Fission"</strong>
The Draco Galarian unleashed the soul skill of a two-headed Salamander that it consumed a while ago. It started to glow in the sky before turning into the two identical beasts Alpha and Beta, each with 1.5 million soul power.
Flapping its wings, one of two Draco Galarians flew towards Azzy and Claire, ignoring Leah who finished the seal and attacked the remaining beast.
Purple chains erupted from the ground and chased after the beast, which is trying its best to dodge them.
"I didn't expect you to acquire such a skill," Leah mumbled with seriousness. Glancing at the flying beast, she motioned her arm and controlled the restriction energy chains to capture it. The Draco Galarian Alpha flew even higher to escape the range while trying to burn them.
Meanwhile, Draco Galarian Beta made its way towards the teenage couple. Claire, who was acting as a guardian for Azzy until he's back to senses, stood before Azzy and spread her golden wings to cover her boyfriend while unleashing her third soul skill, which she rarely uses.
<strong>"Soul skill: Celestial Shield"</strong>
A sturdy golden shield that's as big as her appeared in her left hand. She tightly grabbed it to make sure to defend against every possible attack. She wasn't the type to defend and majorly depends on her powerful recovery ability. But, since there was someone that she needs to protect at all costs, Claire had no choice but to use this shield. As for why she didn't use the Holy ground, she doesn't want to harm Azzy.
Reaching the range, the Draco Galarian Beta started breathing a sea of golden flames. Claire put the shield in front of her to block the flames.
Alas, Claire wasn't Leah. Even after the beast's strength was halved, her power is nowhere near to it. The shield she hoped to block the attack was cracked and was destroyed like a piece of glass and the flames struck her.
"Argh…" She screamed in extreme pain with her skin started to burn. If not for her powerful recovery ability, she would have burnt to crisp. Sensing her golden wings are half burnt, Claire didn't hesitate to unleash her strongest skill, the Descent of Heavenly guardian.
Her sword disappeared and a thick golden aura covered her. Her wounds were healed instantly and her wings were repaired before the flames burnt her again and she screamed in pain.
Her mind was screaming to step aside and dodge but her body refuses to listen to it. "I won't let you harm even a strand of hair on my Rael." Claire gritted her teeth and bared with it.
For a whole ten seconds, she stood there like a statue, getting burned and healed over and over again until the flames stopped and the beast descended onto the ground commenting, "your recovery ability is excellent, Claire. Your meat is more worthy than a platinum grade beast."
Panting heavily, Claire growled in anger, "and should I be grateful for it?"
She was frustrated as her movements became heavily restricted. And at the same time, she wasn't confident that she would be able to protect Azzy for a long time. But, she won't give up either way.
She created twin golden swords and went into a battle stance with a sword in each hand. The Draco Galarian Beta rushed forward. Before she makes her move, an infamous familiar hysterical laughter was heard from behind.
"he he hehe hehehe hehe he"
Claire shivered for a second before she turned her head to see Azzy was back to reality and has a laughing purple skull in his hand. His facial expression seemed indifferent but somehow she felt he was angry.
"Soul skill: Eyes of God"
"Soul skill: Rise of the Undead" "I summon you, Hydra, Aurora"
"Come out, Vajra."
Without talking to her, he unleashed a couple of soul skills and summoned his black lightning wolf. A skeletal four-headed snake and a skeletal wolf rose from the ground and Claire sighed in relief that he's back.
With all of his preparations done, Azzy finally looked at Claire and thanked her before passing an instruction, "Claire, we are proceeding with the formation. Get back and take your position."
