Chapter 826: Hecate’s Fighting Style [Part 2]
Godfrey was expecting to watch an entertaining show.
An entertaining show about the death of Ethan Gremory and his band of annoying bastards.
Although he found it a bit regrettable that the two beautiful ladies, Nicole and Hecate, would die as well, there was nothing he could do about it.
Since they were part of the contract he had with Ethan, even in his death, he couldn't touch or hurt them.
As for that annoying girl, Lyall, the Vampire Lord had no love for her.
In fact, he wished that she would die the most gruesome and painful death of all.
For him, crazy people were like cockroaches.
Some of them wouldn't die even after they were killed.
At first, things were turning out the way Godfrey imagined them to.
Ethan and his comrades' attempts to harm the three-headed dragon, who was both resistant to magical and physical attacks, didn't bear fruit.
However, as the battle continued, they started to employ a different tactic, including summoning an Ancient Wendigo.
This Ancient Wendigo seemed to possess a unique ability which forced Chudo Yudo's head, as it was about to use its Acid Breath attack, down so it hit its own back, making it scream in pain.
But it didn't end there.
He noticed that the Saintess of the Order of the Tidebringer, who shared the name of the Progenitor of Magic, was rushing toward the three-headed dragon.
'Such a shame,' Godfrey thought in dismay. 'If only she wasn't following Ethan, I might have taken her under my wing.'
As he was about to make a toast to honor the young lady's impending death, something he didn't expect happened.
When the three-headed Dragon was about to crush Hecate with its body, something enormous materialized under its body.
An Ancient Earth Elemental suddenly appeared out of nowhere and became the victim of Chudo Yudo's attack.
However, it didn't end there.
More Elementals, although weaker, appeared out of nowhere and surrounded the three-headed Dragon, attacking it with fury.
An Elder Water Elemental, an Elder Wind Elemental, and an Elder Fire Elemental unleashed their wrath on the Lord of the Red Wastes, taking it by surprise.
The Ancient Earth Elemental, which had been pinned to the ground by the Dragon, also stirred and grabbed hold of its enemy's body, preventing it from taking off to the skies.
Besieged from all sides, the three heads of the Dragon tried to fight one opponent each.
But the Elder Elementals were too much for it to handle all at once.
The Water Elemental slapped the middle head of the dragon with a water whip, while the Fire Elemental unleashed a flamethrower at point-blank range at the right-most head.
While, the Wind Elemental summoned a wind blade and hacked at the left-most head with the intention of chopping it off from the dragon's body.
Sparks flew as the blade collided with the Dragon's neck, drawing blood.
The cut wasn't deep enough, but it was more than enough for Chudo Yudo to feel pain.
But just as the three-headed dragon thought that things couldn't possibly get any worse, another Elemental appeared.
This time, it was an Elder Light Elemental, whose entire body glowed in a silvery light.
It raised its two hands and unleashed two rays of light, aimed at the Dragon, which broke the balance of the battle and tilted it in the Elementals' favor.
Hecate then made a hasty retreat to Ethan's side, looking extremely pale.
It seemed that summoning a bunch of Elementals took a toll on her.
Ethan hurriedly came to her side and asked her to ride on his Wind Dancer, where she could rest.
"Drink this potion," Ethan said as he handed a rejuvenation potion to Hecate.
Hecate drank the potion without a second thought before wrapping her arms around Ethan's body, so that she wouldn't fall off from the Wind Dancer.
"That was very reckless, Hecate," Ethan said as he left the immediate battlefield, where the five elementals were ganging up on the three-headed Dragon like a bunch of thugs beating up a random person they found on the streets.
"I know," Hecate replied. "But it worked, right?"
"It did."
"Hehehe."
Although her face was still pale, she was still able to laugh because her plan worked.
Whenever she used any other spell, aside from spells that could directly strengthen her magic, a random Elemental of different Rank would appear.
It ranged from a normal Elemental, Greater Elemental, Elder Elemental, Ancient Elemental, and Primordial Elemental.
Hecate was hoping that a Primordial Elemental would appear since they were the strongest elementals in existence.
Although that didn't happen, seeing that she managed to summon an Ancient Earth Elemental, she was already satisfied with the results.
With the giant golem made of Rocks holding onto the Dragon's body, Chudo Yudo couldn't fly away, allowing the four other Elder Elementals to attack the dragon without any worry.
Nicole, Snowflake, Lyall, and Conall understood that if they were to intervene in the battle, the Elementals might shift their attention to them.
This was something they didn't want to happen, so they retreated and regrouped with Ethan and Hecate, watching the battle from a safe distance.
"How long will the Elementals remain?" Ethan asked.
"Half an hour at the longest," Hecate replied. "Twenty minutes at the shortest."
"That's enough time to rough that dragon up," Nicole commented. "No matter how resistant it is to magic, the power of Elementals cannot be ignored."
Everyone nodded in agreement, and could only look at Chudo Yudo's sorry state.
But there was one more creature who decided to continue fighting alongside the Elementals, and it was none other than Dainsleif.
Since it was invisible, it didn't hold back and used Gravity Magic to prevent the heads of the dragon from mounting a counter-attack by forcibly lowering its heads at the right moment.
This left Chudo Yudo helpless against the bombardment of Elemental attacks that were raining down on its body.
Thirty minutes later, all the elementals vanished one by one, leaving behind a beaten up Dragon who could no longer move its body.
