Chapter 166 - Void Storm Trident!
Chapter 166 - Void Storm Trident!
John waited for the dragon to finish charging it's beam and once it was finally ready and it unleashed it upon him, he shadow stepped at the last second.
As he appeared behind it, he pulled back his arm sending electric currents through the air, at the same time, he began to gather even more wind behind it, and used even more wind magic to rotate it
Because of this, it started to spin so fast it looked like a drill, as the wyvern continued to release a blazing red plasma beam at the wall, it tried to turn around as it could feel john's presence behind it, but it wasn't fast enough
[Lightning... Imagine an ionised path for all this electric energy to travel through...]
Lightning is essentially an ionised path for electricity to travel through, John who knew this implemented it into his spell, the stronger and more accurate the concept, the stronger the spell.
With the knowledge to the combination of all three elements mixed with the speed of lightning itself, John had managed to create on of his strongest offensive's spells yet
[All that's missing is a cool name... Ah, I got it.]
"Scatter." John muttered as he threw the spinning electric trident straight at the wyvern's back
*Voom*
A loud sound resounded through the room as John launched the attack. Serena, and Ariel had stopped their spell as they saw John manhandle the beast
The trident was fast, so fast that John could barely see it's movement. In an instant, there was a hole in the middle of the wyvern's body along with a trident stuck to the wall.
The wyvern stopped flapping it's wings and fell straight on to the middle of the rocky platform in the middle
[T-That was fast...] John thought to himself with a nervous smile
Even he didn't expect the spell to overpower an S-Rank monster like that
[You were lucky that it was only a wyvern]
[Only?]
[That's right, beating them is Childsplay, first the wings, then the mouth, although in your case, you didn't need to get rid of the wings.]
[Is the level of difference really that big between a wyvern and a dragon, then?]
[Dragons can use magic, are intelligent and can transform. Wyverns are like flying birds which can breathe fire.]
[You seem to really like dragons and dislike wyverns...]
[We have a history.]
[Hm... How old- are wyverns?]
John felt like asking Zestari for her age, but when he did, he suddenly felt a shiver go down his spine so he changed the question
[Wyverns... probably since the creation of this world]
[Zestari... Are you a god?] John suddenly asked
[Unfortunately, not, but I know a few people who have enough magic power to rival gods.]
[So they exist...]
John felt a surge of pain go through his right hand as he descended back down to the ground to get some rest
Contrary to what he had expected, that attack took quite a lot out of him, so much that he was even struggling to catch his breath
As he reached the ground, he noticed that the trident was gone and cuts and burns were left on his right arm after the attack
[It's incomplete...] John thought to himself
"J-John... Remind me why we wasted magic power to charge up our spell?" Serena asked as she walked up to him
She then noticed the torn sleeve and cuts on his arm. It was strange because she hadn't seen him get attacked, but the burns could have been from the dragons' attack.
"Your arm, how did it get bruised up this badly?" Ariel asked as she grabbed on to his arm
As she was trying to assess the wound, she noticed that steam started coming out of it as it began healing itself
Seeing this, she looked at john with a confused look before Serena decided to ask
"John, did you finally stop being human?"
"Why is that your first guess?"
"It was bound to happen eventually..."
"Come on Ariel, not you too... Have some faith in me, I'm still human"
"Humans wounds don't heal on their own!" Said Serena
"It's magic!" John replied
"Magic?"
"That's right, after nearly paralysing myself, I discovered a new way to use 'Sana'" Translation: Heal
"A new way?"
"Yeah, that's right. I'll explain it to you guys in a bit, wait here for me, I'll be back in a minute"
"Wait! … Why was he in such a rush?" Serena asked as she watched him teleport over to the giant red magic stone and put it in his ring.
He then teleported over the door where they had come from
"Why's he going back there..."
"Maybe something happened with that party?" Said Ariel as she watched him open the door
"That's the only explanation. Should we go help him?" Serena asked
"No, leave him be. Rather than that, I'd prepare myself if I were you." Said Master Sylvia as she began to do some stretches
"Yes..." The two girls replied
Judging from the way Master Sylvia was acting, the both Serena and Ariel knew that whatever was waiting for them at the end, wasn't something they could take lightly.

"Alphie stay back..." Said Cruz as she extended her arm towards them
"The moment you start casting, he'll attack." Said the dark orange hair boy with the daggers
"Aston, why are you letting him do as he pleases?" Cruz asked
"He'll reap what he sowed. Besides it has nothing to do with me." Said Aston as he watched
"Y-You won't get away with this..." Said Alphie
The man towered over the two girls and gave them a look full of bloodlust as he said
"You two would rather team up with a strangers party and go against me... You only have yourselves to blame for this."
"You won't get away with this..." Said Cruz before she started to chant
*Clap*
Her chant was quickly cancelled by the man as he slapped her right in the face
"Chanting in front of me, this is why we can't conquer this damn dungeon.... All of you all fools! Oi, what's with that look?" Asked the man as he grabbed on to Alphie's chin.
