SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

Chapter 53: Joker's Logic

The Wyvern sensed the attack, but it was too late. The axe dug into its shoulder deeply, so deep that the cracking of bones could be heard as the axe ripped through.

The wound was so large that the arm looked like it would fall off at any given time. The Wyvern fell to the ground in pain.

Silva heaved a sigh of relief, transformed back to normal, and walked to the side of the Wyvern. He wanted to land the finishing blow.

But in that instant, all his warning bells sounded in his head. Before he could react, the tail of the Wyvern slammed into his chest.

It hit with so much force that Silva's ribs shattered, and his body shot like a bullet into a wall.

The attack knocked Silva out, and that caused all his clones to disappear, leaving only Fang standing.

The Wyvern got back on its feet, its wounds healed up completely, sealing them. But the aura around the Wyvern changed completely—it looked very angry.

The eyes of the Wyvern glowed red, and it charged at Fang. It wanted to finish Fang off and then handle Silva.

Fang stood his ground. He roared and fired a thick stream of lightning. The Wyvern countered with a stream of flames that overpowered the lightning.

The flames hit Fang, sending him rolling until he hit a wall and stopped. The Wyvern walked toward Silva; now that Fang was out of the way, it could deal with Silva.

Fang saw the Wyvern. He couldn't let his master be harmed. He channeled all his lightning into his body and used it to dash.

His speed caused a sonic boom, and the wall cracked as well. He became like a bolt of lightning as he collided with the Wyvern, sending it flying.

Though Fang initiated the attack, the backlash he received was great, as he too was thrown into a wall.

Both Fang and the Wyvern got up at almost the same time. The Wyvern shook off the impact of the attack, but the same could not be said for Fang.

His head was bleeding, and his body was trembling. He was at the end of his strength, running on fumes, and even that was about to run out.

But still, he couldn't let Silva get hurt; he had to do something. He summoned all the lightning he could. His body became like a shining light as the bolts crackled around him.

But this was very dangerous, as his body was tearing up. Yet he refused to give up and kept going.

He used all that force to charge at the Wyvern and slammed into it. This time, only the Wyvern was sent flying.

But Fang was no better. His consciousness was fading, but to his surprise, the Wyvern stood back up.

Fang tried to stand, to not fall, to not give up, but his body wasn't responding. Then he felt a hand on him and heard a voice.

"You did well to protect me; now let me do the same for you," Silva said. When Fang heard that, it was as though a switch in his head was turned off, and he fainted.

[Summon Fang has reached the level of Evolution.]

[Evolution has begun.]

"It seems your sacrifice has paid off, Fang. Just stay there and peacefully evolve; I'll handle this now," Silva said.

He walked closer to the Wyvern with slow, steady steps. The Wyvern felt uneasy and became cautious. The look in Silva's eyes caused it to panic.

"Summon all clones," Silva said, and all his clones appeared.

"Joker of the Abyss!" all the clones called out at the same time, and they all transformed.

The Wyvern didn't know what was going on, but it knew that when they all transformed, there was danger.

It spewed a stream of flames in a circular motion to deal with them all at once, but Silva and the clones pulled cards out of their decks, creating all sorts of defensive items that warded off the flames. Then they charged all at the same time.

Two clones leaped into the air. They drew their cards, and this time it was a joker card. They threw the cards past the Wyvern, and immediately upon passing the Wyvern, they teleported to where the cards were.

The joker card allowed the joker to teleport to where the card was, and so they used it to get close to the Wyvern. Then they took out other cards that transformed into weapons.

They all landed their attacks, and deep wounds showed on the head of the Wyvern.

After the first time Silva had used the joker, he tried to find out more about it, and with the help of the system, he was able to get the information he needed.

The Joker of the Abyss was a being with an infinite amount of cards, but he only had a twenty percent chance of pulling what he needed.

But with Silva's ten times buff, he had a two hundred percent chance, which meant he could never pick what he didn't want. Every draw from the deck would be something he needed.

With that in mind, he could pull out any legendary weapon to fight here. The joker was his greatest strength. Even though that dragon girl was able to stop him from using it, this Wyvern couldn't.

And so, now he would go all out to finish the Wyvern. But even with the joker activated, the Wyvern was shockingly able to land some hits on the clones, sending them flying, but the wounds had begun gathering as they used all manner of cards to attack.

The Wyvern was too preoccupied to notice that Silva had transformed into his dragon newt form and was holding the Minotaur's Rage in his hand, charging up for an attack.

All of a sudden, all the clones distanced themselves from the Wyvern. The Wyvern got confused as to why, but when it looked up, it saw Silva coming from above with a powerful attack.

The Wyvern knew there was no dodging that. The axe was about to hit the Wyvern's head, but a powerful force suddenly stopped the attack.
