Chapter 134: The weakest woman?

The Dragon.

In the dragon's world, it's a title that the strongest dragon wields. It's usually the guild master of the royal dragon guild, but there were a few exceptions to that rule. Of course, every dragon can say that he's a dragon, but no one would ever dare to say that he's The Dragon.

Because of their pride, the dragon's titles are simple and straightforward without any reference to elements or others — Thus, The Dragon is the simplest and thus the strongest title one can achieve.

In comparison, Alexandra's Blue Thanatos nickname is like the third-grade title.

The second grade is titles like The Fire Dragon. And the first grade, just one step below The Dragon, are dragons with titles like The Red Dragon and more.

"The Dragon knew The Nine-Tailed Star's secret and treasured it, wanting her to work with him.. But The Nine-Tailed Star was presumptuous and deemed dragons unworthy of her attention, scoffing at The Dragon and insulting him the most. In his ire, The Dragon roared at her and fought against her, eventually losing..." Alexandra recited her memory, her eyes trembling as speaking of The Dragon's loss genuinely turned her blood cold.

An ice silence ensued in the cave.

But only for a few seconds, as Celes kept destroying the pillars. At the same time, Leon stepped between Alexandra and Louise, then pierced the black eye with his golden irises.

"You'll talk about it after we leave this cave." Leon spoke in a commanding tone like a family head, then his next words went against the demon. "I won't let you buy more time."

"Sucks." The demon sneered within his eye form. "I also owe you an apology. I usually think hard and provide sufficient entertainment to my prey, but I'm not in a proper state for a good game.. Look, it's a simple game where you can reach me only after destroying the energy-draining pillars. There are tons of fake pillars, so take your time! Hehe!"

Those pillars sucked Leon and his girls mana and health points, filling the demon's body with them. Letting the demon suck more was dangerous as Leon's party's only advantage was his low stats.

Leon fished out his divine hammer and tightly clenched it..

Upon seeing that hammer, the demon's eyes shivered. "Can it be.. But like.."

Leon sneered and parted his lips. "I've marked the real pillars on your minimap. Destroy them all."

"Lies." The demon spat and locked his eye on Leon's teammates, only to widen his form!

Leon's girls didn't miss it! They sent their skills at every real pillar and shattered it with ease, slowly paving a path for their master to reach the demon's side!

Leon tilted his head and ambled forward, saving his mana. "I don't blame you for ignoring me. In your eyes, I'm just a human who somehow managed to get his hands on these three beautiful women — I don't mind that. As long as my partners believe in me, I don't need any unnecessary fame." Leon smirked. "As you can see, they do."

Louise slammed her palm against one of the pillars. Feeling the rush of her mana to her hand, she heated it up with her feelings and formed five fox tails that riddled the pillar, shattering it.

Celes needed more strength to destroy the real deals, too. She tangled her bloody threads around her balled hand and thrust her fist against them, crumbling it.

Alexandra threw her clenched hand at the pillar as well. Her punch caused blue ripples on the pillar's form! With each ripple, more cracks spread across the pillar, which could no longer sustain itself. It exploded into debris.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Because of Leon's blacksmith class and the divine hammer in his hands, Leon saw through mana passages much easier than everyone else. His eyes were divine, so it was natural for him to tame the power of the divine weapon. In fact, as Leon held that hammer, he felt like the divine hammer was a replica, not the real one.

It gave off a different feeling than the divine sword within his bloodline.

But it was fine. That item already enabled Leon more than enough.

The demon couldn't believe his eyes as he glowered at Leon, who was closing the distance. Undoubtedly, a man who surrounded himself with girls like Blue Thanatos was no normal man! The demon soon would feel that with his very body.

BANG!historical

The last hurdle shattered into pieces. Now, nothing barred Leon's way from fighting the demon.

"I'm here to save you, but please don't call me a hero." Leon warmly smiled at the little girl imprisoned in the birdcage.

She looked up at him with twinkling eyes and nodded.

Looking at her, Leon was amazed to see that she wasn't scared and calmly analyzed the situation. Leon and his girls' strength had given her a lot of hope, but it couldn't be just that. This little girl was special!

Leon shifted his eyes to the black eye that popped into flies.

The man with fly's wings dropped onto the ground. He wore black pants and a coat. He revealed his chest, exposing the embedded in him green orb. It shone and pulsed, spreading faint veins across his chest.

"Ah, man.. I fished a big one.." The man slicked his hair behind and locked his greenish eyes on Leon. "Congratulations on nearly finishing my game, man. You can't deal with the last boss."

"I was always fond of multi-player games anyway." Leon extended his hand and sent his red scar forth.

Aaron did the same. But from his sleeve, a cloud of flies burst forward, abundantly spreading in Leon's direction. Their speed surprised Leon. He found nowhere to escape as they surrounded him.

He didn't feel threatened yet. "Ignite."

His scarf exploded with raw strength, taking down countless flies around him. He also left some damage on Aaron's fist, burning his skin. However, the demon didn't bother himself with that little pain.

Before the flames subsided, he shrank distance with Leon and struck his solar-plexus with his pale hand covered in a blinding green aura.

Leon felt his stomach and back threatening to burst into pieces. The strength behind that blow already drew blood from his lips and bent his body! He soon lost his grounding and flew up to the ceiling.

But as though he had been expecting that, Leon wrapped his red-black scarf around Aaron's wrist before his flight. Mid-air, Leon clenched that scar and didn't let the man go. His royal vampire wings kept Leon high.

The demon couldn't shake the scarf off, too. Soon, he felt something prickling his skin as though trying to gnaw on his flesh! "The level gap is too much for you, man."

He then closed his right eye as the green orb pulsed again.

Using that as her chance, Louise crept her way to his right side. From the point-blank angle, Louise fired up a series of flashy and sparkling kicks, leaving a few bruises on Aaron's face. When she performed her move, Alexandra also sneaked in her prowess, pummeling the demon from the side with her high dragon physique and enchantment.

The ground below the demon turned into a water pool and whirled, sinking his feet inside.

Aaron felt like someone was trying to split off his feet. Still, he laughed and strained for only a few seconds to leave that unusual pool.

He grinned and screamed. "It prickles! Haha! Oh, how low you've fallen!"

At the same time, Alexandra got rebuked in her heart.

[Attack that green orb on his chest, you blind failure of a dragon! Are you waiting for your fucking master to order you to attack the demon's vulnerable point?! You have my memories, yet you ask him pointless questions! You never want to stand out and be in his shadow, only showing your class when he needs it the most! And you love bowing to him because he keeps looking at your cleavage! Remember! It's my cleavage, you bitch! Ahhh! You annoy the shit out of me! Fuck off, and let me control my body! I'll show you how to kill! I'll murder that demon and let him taste the might of dragons!]

'Why didn't I think of it?' Alexandra questioned herself, making the evil dragon within her spasm from anger.

Louise also locked her eyes on the green orb.

[The Nine-Tailed Star!]

The demon had used that nickname to call her. But Louise preferred [Amaterasu], and even her master said that it suited her more. She also respected that figure and never thought negatively about her. So how come her heart ached a little now that she thought about her nickname?

Hearing that nickname never produced any pain.. And now that she learned about another nickname, Louise's heart turned cold, and she felt pain.

'I wanted to kick his face because he spat that nickname.. I let my feelings take over me..' Louise clenched her little hands and gritted her teeth. 'There are answers in my heart.. and the key to those answers is master's warmth! I'll lose that warmth if I let the unknown take over me and something happens to me or master... I must focus. Recall the loneliness.. And then, Master.. And loneliness again..'

Louise locked her eyes on the demon's face, but deep within her heart, she aimed for that green orb. With her new resolution, she wouldn't commit any mistake again!

And while these two were focused on that, Celes had already thought of the weak point and sent her special bat straight into the demon's chest.

"Arghhh!" The demon spat a mouthful of blood after the unknown object hit him.

When he looked below, his heart trembled as he noticed that the green orb sank deeper into his chest. He then glowered at the vampiress' bat, which differed from others. It wasn't made out of mana but bloody threads.

And as it flew back to his master's side, Aaron followed it and narrowed his eyes at the vampiress. 'She's supposed to be the weakest...'
