Chapter 84 - 084 | Vaal Ignis: Heaven’s Verdict
The Drake with its two curved horn on the head, opened its mouth wide and fired a breath made of rocks, gravel and dirt.
Reyansh instinctively formed an V-shaped wall, however, he was still being pushed back from the sheer force of the Drake’s breath.
’Of course, an Earth Drake will spit rocks and dirt.’
[Ent_Lord_345: Yeah, the infamous Dragon’s breath, though I half expected fire.]
[Raisena_Forge: It’s an Earth Drake, its breath would consist of rocks and dirt, that’s obvious.]
[The Blazing Sandra: The breath of a draconic species depends on themselves rather than their species. And its hardly a Dragon’s breath, a hatchling true dragon has more powerful breath than this lizard.]
’Oh, she looks pissed. She is a true dragon, so I could understand her anger. But let’s get out of its way, first.’
Turning slightly, he pushed himself away from the breath and threw multiple fireballs.
The fireballs exploded on impact near its face as he expected but the only result was smoke.
As the smoke cleared, revealing the pissed off face of The Drake. The mountain like deep brown scales of The Drake weren’t even scratched. Its molten bright eyes searching for Reyansh.
The Drake finally stood up, all four of its limbs visible, its head reaching up to thirty meters in height.
The Drake opened its mouth and roared, there was no shockwave, just simple strength of its roar prompted Reyansh to erect a wall again to save himself from being flung back.
However, at the same time, his senses rang like crazy, warning him of danger. He acted on his instincts and ducked.
The next moment, the Drake’s tail smashed through the Reyansh’s firewall like it was made of mud.
He felt Terrax’s rocky tail pass above him. He rolled ahead to distance himself from the tail.
’I need time to copy the skill I want.’ He thought.
He manifested the bow again, condensing another arrow on it, bigger and stronger. Stretching the string as far as he could, aiming at the most vulnerable area he could think of, its mouth.
The Drake fired its breath again, Reyansh formed a flat compact wall this time, focusing on high temperature.
The dirt and gravel collided against the wall but the high temperature forced the rocks to melt, forming a crude wall as the amount of rocks and dirt increased.
Just as the breath ended, Reyansh jumped higher than crude wall, targeting the moment its breath had ended but the mouth still remained open.
He stopped thinking about the target for a moment while he was in the air. Just when he felt right in his instincts, he released the string. The arrow streaked through the flying dust like a comet in dark space.
"Peekaboo."
Before The Drake could close its mouth completely, the arrow impacted at the corner of the mouth, causing an explosion bog enough to push back the Terrax’s head.
[Storm_Knight: That was some fine archery.]
[Raisena_Forge: But it won’t be enough, Drakes are notorious for their defense and this is an Earth Drake, so it’s defence is probably one of the best in ranks of B-rank monster.]
[Daoist_kun: Maybe use the flame spears you used earlier.]
[Dread Fist: I am waiting for your actual response.]
Lyrielle was flying near the camera at distance, her eyes focused on Reyansh, waiting for his action.
’Let’s see what you do, StarWalker,’ she thought folding her hands, watching him intently.
After releasing the arrow, he immediately changed his position, running to his left, hiding behind a large boulder.
He thought of using perk 4, a list of viewers appeared in front of him, but he just skipped to one name, he mentally commanded, Red Falcon.
[Viewer: Red Falcon]
[Available Skills to copy:] Flame Serpent (Elite|5☆); Eye of Fire God (Legendary|6☆); Bands of Ignivar (Legendary |6☆); Vaal Ignis: Solar Tribunal (Ancient|6☆)
He went over the names, for a moment, he saw the field he was lacking in, ’I still have a long way to go.’
He may have Mythical-rank talents, but to defeat a creature like The Drake, he needed stronger skills.
’Focus.’
Looking at the list, he chose the Ancient-rank skill for the overwhelming power.
[You have chosen an Ancient-rank skill...]
[Perk 1 is being applied...]
[You have gained a Mythical|7☆ rank skill, Vaal Ignis: Heaven’s Verdict, temporarily.]
The information about the skill and the way to use it suddenly appeared in his brain.
Before he could act on his thoughts, he heard a loud THUD, cracks in the ground widened as he sensed the Terrax’s tail moving.
Reyansh saw the crude wall getting blasted to dust. The Drake had recovered from the minor pushback, swinging its tail in anger.
He immediately focused on activating the skill before the tail destroyed the boulder he was hiding behind, his mana emptied out like it was sucked by vacuum.
After all his mana was used by the skill, he sensed the wall of his mana core expanding and sucking in more mana from the atmosphere to compensate.
’This must be the Sandra’s talent,’ he thought before focusing back on the skill.
Suddenly, the air above Reyansh head multiple cracks appeared, like the dungeon fabric itself was being torn apart due to skills.
His mana limit could only open five portals, each gigantic enough, every portal bigger than Drake’s head.
Reyansh finally stepped out from behind the boulder, walking towards the Drake, his senses sharp and body ready to act even at Drake’s tiny movements.
"Looking for me?" He called.
The molten bright eyes that were searching for Reyansh, locked on to him immediately.
[Ent_Lord_345: Bro WHAT?]
[Ramon_Night: This is his moment, he has a habit of doing that, just watch.]
[Ellise: I am waiting to see the skill he will use.]
The camera hadn’t shown the five gigantic portals in sky, this was maneuvered by Lyrielle, to create more impact to the viewers.
So she saw him walking towards The Drake, she understood immediately, it was time for the climax.
The Drake opened its mouth again, stretching his mouth, ready to spew as large breath as possible.
Reyansh smirked, with one hand in his pocket, still feeling the mana drain, he pointed his hands upwards.
"Before you spit more dirt, look above."
The Drake feeling a little disturbed by the sudden courage of its prey, looked above.
At the same moment, the Lyrielle also focused one camera above. ’I was waiting for your clue boss, you are a natural.’
The visuals of five huge swords coming out of five portals that looked like it was tearing the space itself. Each sword burning with red hue, radiant molten white edge and a small obsidian orb at the base of the sword, acting like a core.
For the first time, The Drake flinched, watching five sword almost as big as its head, floating above. The presence of each sword made The Drake feel like it was time for its judgement.
[Red Falcon: Hahaha...I see what you are doing. Just amazing. That Lizard is good as dead.]
[Red Falcon has donated 10,000 Cosmic Coins for your magnificent use of the skill.]
[You have obtained 1,000,000 Cosmic Coins.] (Perk 1)
Reyansh didn’t wait anymore to give The Drake time to react further.
"This is Overwhelming Power," he spoke as he brought down his hand, aimed at the Drake.
There was no gap between the action of his hands and the movement of the swords.
One moment, the swords were floating near the portal, the next moment, all of them pierced through the thick mountain like scales of the Drake.
One sword pierced its head, two of the swords pierced both shoulders, the last two swords entered through back, place of most dense scales and came out from its abdomen.
The Drake fell down, kicking up dust, while its terror filled eyes still looking at Reyansh.
