I turned north and started to shoot in that direction as the dragon chased me. The speed it could move was absolutely amazing, and its aura cooked anything that got anywhere close to it.
On top of the oven aura, it had some type of reactive skin that created a ridiculously strong explosion. It was activated when something like the burning body of a Carnica would impact it.
The body would be blown to bits, but there would be no marks on the dark red dragon after. That alone made the creature nearly impossible to fight, but that wasn't even mentioning the deadliest part of the massive creature.
The ability to spit out ten-foot fireballs that could be detonated at will had already almost knocked me out of the air. I had tried to just barely avoid it, but the ball of fire ruptured beside me, sending me spinning through the air.
Luckily, the fireballs also exploded on contact, so I had been hiding in the creatures. Still, the shockwaves from the blast were eno
I remember being a kid at the lake, and a friend's parents had bought a strange giant air bag. One person laid on the front of it, depressing the massive bag, and then another person climbed up a tall ladder.That person jumped off, and landed on the back part that was filled with air. The results were you being catapulted into the air about twenty feet, and then back down to slap the water.This was about four times as hard, and there was no upward arc to slow me down. I speared into the lava, and my Fire Gog Totem and Fire Force Pact took over.I had to keep my eyes closed, the lava was far too bright, and I didn’t need to see to eat. I opened my mouth and the fiery thick milkshake textured lava poured in.[Good, consume as much as you can while they are busy. It is filling you with energy, but if they kill the dragon, you should be teleported from here before the Tri-Gods can get you.]‘Should be, isn't that inspiring.’
[Zacks View]The wave of lava from the Elemental splashing into the fire lake hit me, and I was taken under with it. This really wasn't much of a problem, and I plunged deep, using my arms to pull myself to the bottom.[Blaza is trying to get to you, but you need to seal yourself from him and then try to absorb what you can! fifteen seconds till eternal damnation is released, and the top ten feet for a mile around is vaporized!]I didn't need Fireden's voice to remind me about the burgeoning atomic bomb worth of energy. I kept Keri's Totem up but changed to my Water Force Pact and started to churn the fiery sludge.The massive surge was building within the Dread Dragon as I whipped the lava around me faster. I could tell that it was about to reach the crescendo of overcharged unbridled power, so I needed to be faster.I closed my eyes, entirely slipping into my Water Aspect, forcing my body to expand. Then I started to swirl my body around, creatin
[Ooo, that is not going to feel good in the morning!]'Great to hear you again too, Hero.'[Yes, well, you look like you have been run over many times, but what is with this intense aura you have? Your energy is almost completely depleted, but you still have more than what your limit was when you left!]In the background, there was silence, but I could feel the Demons all around us… wait, why did I feel that?"Ugh, yeah, had my mind blown apart a couple times, but you saw me after that, right? Also, since when did a human join us?" I asked out loud, and the bodies that were crushing me into the steps started to move."What did you just say?" Mex asked as everyone got off me.I ignored him, my eyes were still closed, and I rolled over. I reached my hand out to push myself up, but the hand slipped, and then I tumbled the rest of the way down the stairs.[You should try opening your eyes, I hear they help when looking for places t
"Me? What are you talking about?" I asked as I looked around at the gathered and waiting Demons.They were all looking at me with expectant faces… wait… they were waiting… Me?I could actually feel that from them, but I didn't understand what It meant. Was this part of being a Demon Lord?[You are the strongest, and the only Demon Lord left on this island, but you are immensely more potent than anything that is on this island. I suggest you call a meeting and recall the ones that were sent out to attack.]"Am I the Lord of everyone now? How does that even happen?" I asked Mex, and he mimicked the shrug I had just given him."I guess that you are too strong, and they have all been forced under your control. I think that only Nixi, Lani, Nushi, Dack, and Nushi are the only ones strong enough to be able to resist you, but I will give you my loyalty without question. You fixed me!" Mex said with excitement as he grabbed his crotch
I told Mex and Nushi to head back to the Keep and let everyone know what was happening. Before they left, I asked Hydie if I could talk to her.I wanted to pick her brain about Beeno and see what I could do to make her more comfortable. Clearly, she was very stressed out, and I don't think she understood what was going on."Yes?" Hydie asked after she joined me in the back storage area I had used to enter Dao's tent."I wanted to ask you about Beeno. She seems distressed," I said to Hydie, but she rolled her eyes to my surprise.Not the expression that I assumed I would get, and then Hydie took in a deep breath. After letting it out in a long sigh, Hydie shook her head and then looked back at me with a grin."Nushi told her about all of us and our relationships with you. Now she thinks that she is going to be standing in a long line. The girl just wants to be able to spend time with you, and I get it, so I think you could maybe do some stuff with h
Before leaving, I went through a couple of the boxes until I found something to put on. The shorts I found were red and had some bloodstains, but it gave them a textured look, and I really didn't care what they looked like.I left the storage area and backed out into the central tent area, but the place was deserted. I looked around, and I didn't see Beeno at first, so I closed my eyes.I immediately felt her and opened my eyes to look in the direction that I had sensed her. The raised hexagonal dais that was surrounded by stairs blocked my view, so I walked forward.I looked around as I did, the place looked much different and empty, but most of the arenas did. Without the people and the energy that came with them, the place was just a tent.Beeno was squatted at the end of the stairs, and she was using one of her long fingers to draw in the dirt. As I got closer, I was surprised at what I saw in the dirt.She drew a picture of me fighting with on
I smiled, but I also activated my Fire Aspect, and fire slowly covered my body, but it didn't cause Beeno to pull back from my chest.I grinned down at her and lifted into the air slowly, not wanting to set everything below me on fire. Once I was about fifty feet in the air, I turned on the heat, rocketing forward to my destination on the map.Now that Hero was back in my head, I no longer had to rely on doing everything myself. I knew that Hero helped me out a lot, but having him gone made me realize just how much I relied on him.[It's about time that you noticed, but I am just glad that you were all able to make it back safely.]*Wataluga: You were talking about the table?*I didn't have far to go, so I relayed about Arthur Pendragon and his Knight, and it was well-received by both Elementals. Of course, I didn't really explain that much; Hero had to explain most of it because reading wasn't really my thing.*Fireden: I like the sound of
Fireden was right, and I didn't want to waste too much time with this. I still had the demons that were still gathering to deal with, and I wanted to get home to see my girls."Okay, let's go check it out; I am not sure if we will even find anything. I had just found it very suspicious that the Gnolls didn't try to attack me when I found them all heading down here. If I had had more time, I would have checked it out then, but it is probably better now that we are all together," I explained to everyone and then waved Fireden ahead.I let the others go ahead and offered Beeno a hand, but she only looked at me strangely. I resisted an eye roll and reached down, taking Beeno's thin hands in mine."Are you sure you want to hold my hands?" Beeno asked me shyly, and I looked down at the hands that were in mine.They were thin, long fingers and a bit rough, but there was nothing wrong with them."Yeah, let's get going. Who said your drawings were stupid or
