Not-So an Extra

Chapter 89 Ch. 89: The Hidden Treasure’s Guardian [2]

?

"RRROOOAAAARRR!!!!"

Upon hearing it, Adrian couldn't help but grin from ear to ear, his lips stretching wide in a triumphant smile. 

The thrill of excitement that filled his heart was almost overwhelming, like a burst of fireworks exploding inside him.

'That's right. Wake up, you bastard!'

—Flap! —Flap! —Flap! 

As the monstrous creature flapped its massive wings, the thick black smoke that had previously obscured its form began to dissipate, revealing a Wyvern floating in the air.

The creature's scales glimmered in the sunlight, and its feral eyes glared down at the crowd frozen in terror before it.

The students stood in stunned silence, unable to move as the Wyvern's presence loomed over them. 

"Rooaarrr!!"

Suddenly, a piercing scream shattered the stillness, causing the throng to abandon their preparations and scramble away in fear.

"Huaaa!!"

"Run away!!"

The Wyvern's mouth opened wide, and a fiery glow could be seen gathering within, however—

—Boom!

"Rooaarrr!!"

A thunderous boom echoed through the air as a lightning bolt struck the beast's gaping maw. 

The Wyvern swayed violently, smoke billowing from its nostrils.

Quickly regaining its composure, the monster stabilized its body in the air and let out a fierce growl.

"Rooaarrr!!"

Glancing at the source of the lightning bolt, the monster's gaze fell upon a white-haired boy hovering on an earth plate, a cocky smirk plastered across his face.

"Rooaarrr!!"

With a deafening roar, the Wyvern launched itself towards the boy with lightning speed, forcing Adrian to quickly create another earth plate and leap to the side.

—Boom!

With a mighty crash, the Wyvern collided with the earth's plate, shattering it into pieces. 

As it looked to the side, the monster saw a youth leaping from one earth plate to another.

Wasting no more time, the Wyvern soared toward the boy at incredible speed.

When the distance drew near, the monster opened its jaws and unleashed a blazing torrent of fire.

—Fwoosh!

Catching a glimpse of the raging inferno behind him, Adrian let himself fall freely, narrowly avoiding the flames.

—Thud!

Landing perfectly on the earthen platform he had conjured, the boy quickly fired off a barrage of lightning bolts at the Wyvern.

However, just as his attack was about to strike it, the creature stopped breathing fire and took off, flapping its wings with incredible force, resulting in his attack hitting the empty air.

It was common knowledge that, not only fast, but the Wyvern was also highly agile and had a 50% resistance to elemental fire attacks. 

So, using elemental fire attacks was out of the question.

Soon, the Wyvern pivoted and darted toward the white-haired boy.

Unfazed, Adrian continued to fire a relentless volley of bolts at the monster.

Nevertheless, the monster deftly flickered left and right, dodging his attacks with ease.

"Tsk."

Adrian clicked his tongue in annoyance. 

He realized that fighting the Wyvern in the air would only give the damn beast an advantage—he needed to act fast and ground it.

Adrian despised it when his prey had the upper hand.

As the whizzing sound drew closer, the boy quickly conjured an earth plate next to him and hopped sideways before running forward.

—Whack!

"Rooaarrr!!"

The Wyvern let out a piercing screech of agony when its massive head collided with the earth plate.

Upon hearing the Wyvern wailing, Adrian couldn't help but let out a small chuckle.

"Hehe."

He had hardened his last foothold, knowing that the Wyvern would strike it regardless.

Halting his step, Adrian turned to face the Wyvern, who was seen shaking its head to dismiss its dizziness.

Seizing this opportunity, Adrian swiftly summoned three hardened earth spears and launched them at the beast.

Sensing danger, the Wyvern hastily flapped its wings to fly high. 

Just like before, the monster managed to nimbly evade by flashing left and right; however— 

—Slash!

"Rooaarrr!!"

Red blood spurted out of its scales when the spear grazed the beast's thigh.

The Wyvern abruptly halted in mid-air and wide opened its jaw, flames flickering in the back of its throat.

Without wasting any time, Adrian invoked other earth plates and fled for his life.

—Fwooosh!!

The earth plates behind him cracked and vanished into the flames.

The moment the Wyvern halted its breath of fire, Adrian sprang into action. 

With a swift gesture, he conjured a series of earth plates leading toward the beast. 

Drawing his sword from its magical sphere, Adrian slashed his sword in the air whilst running, sending numerous crescent lights.I think you should take a look at

But his attack did not stop; a Magic Circle crackled to life behind him, unleashing a volley of earth palisades toward the monster.

Little did Adrian know, the Wyvern would shoot its breath of fire once every five minutes.

Since it had already been unleashed, then Adrian should not worry about it.

Undeterred, the Wyvern flapped its wings with ease, gracefully zigzagging and effortlessly dodging his every attack.

As the Wyvern closed in, its jaws gaping wide, ready to devour the boy before it.

With a flick of his hand, Adrian created an earth pillar beneath him, propelling him into the air, out of the Wyvern's reach.

—Boom!

The tower crumbled down as the monster struck it, and Adrian immediately jumped down when the monster passed underneath.

Landing perfectly on the Wyvern's back, Adrian immediately jabbed his sword.

"Roooaarrr!!"

The Wyvern came to a sudden break in midair, its massive wings beating frantically as red blood continued to ooze from the wound.

Thanks to his beloved Damascus Sword, he could easily cut through the Wyvern's scales regardless of his sucks Physical Strength.

"Roooaarrr!!"

With a fierce snarl, the Wyvern swiftly spun its body in the air, attempting to dislodge the boy from its back.

Unfazed, Adrian clung to his sword and recited a spell.

Before long, a magical circle materialized on the Wyvern's back, enveloped by crackling streaks of lightning that greedily siphoned off his mana. 

—Tzz! —Tzz! —Tzz!

As it intensified, the lightning surged into the wyvern's body through its bloodstream.

"Roooaarrr!!"

The Wyvern wailed in agony right after the lightning coursed through its veins, its wings flapping frantically as it tried to escape the pain.

Overwhelmed by the sheer force of the electrical energy, the creature's muscles gave out, and it began to lurch downward.

Pulling out his sword, Adrian conjured a bigger earth platform in the air and threw himself on it.

"Ugh!"

Adrian let out a grunt of pain the moment his body kissed the ground.

—Boom!

The Wyvern fell with a thunderous thud, shaking the earth violently and sending debris with clouds of dust billowing into the air.

"Haa… haa…"

Adrian used both hands to force himself to stand, his whole body trembling.

Elementalists, by means, were not immune to their own spells.

When they created a spell (conjure) or did Manipulation, 'control' played a crucial role.

As long as the Elementalist maintained control, the magic would not harm them. 

However, once the magic was released, it was entirely out of their control and could potentially harm allies and the caster.

Nevertheless, thanks to his rank S Magical Defense, he sustained less damage.

But still, tasting his own magic hurt as fuck.

"Haa… haa…"

Standing firmly on both feet, Adrian's cerulean eyes scanned the area below, where the Wyvern lay motionless on the ground. 

Without wasting any more time, he lifted his sword and released a volley of crescent lights toward the beast.

—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!

The sound of explosions echoed through the air, causing Sylvina's heart to ache.

She looked to her left and right, only to find that the crowd around her was standing frozen in shock.

Clutching her hands tightly, Sylvina ran towards the monster, firing out a barrage of lightning bolts.

—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!

The ground erupted, causing rubble and dirt to fly in every direction.

Adrian gazed into the distance and saw a girl with pink hair hurling bolts of lightning at the Wyvern.

Without hesitation, Rhea, Ralph, and Péréz joined her in charging toward the fallen beast, conjuring their most powerful spells.

Upon looking at them, the crowd was awakened from their amazement.

They felt a surge of determination and one by one, they began to join in the battle, unleashing their own spells.

—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!

"Tsk."

Adrian clucked his tongue in annoyance.

Here he thought that he could single-handedly the Wyvern; it seemed to be the way around.

As this was a teamwork mission, then Adrian had nothing to say to them.

Anyhow, upon watching them from above, it indeed reminded him of an MMORPG where a guild was battling a World Boss.

Shifting his attention to the giant board hovering in the air, Adrian noticed that the Wyvern's health had been reduced by half and was continuing to decrease slowly under the relentless bombardment of the crowd's magic.

However, amidst the billowing black clouds in front of them, a sudden loud thud echoed, followed by the ground beneath them shaking violently.

—Thump! —Thump! 

The crowd abruptly halted their magic in fear and looked around in confusion, their hearts skipping a beat.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed through the air.

"Roooaarrrr!!"

—Flap! —Flap!

The sound of flapping wings followed, dispersing the clouds of dust and revealing a Wyvern standing on its hind legs.
