Chapter 643 – Are you scared? 5
Dorph sighed after looking at Rasheel, who just quietly stared at him with a stiff expression on his face.
‘Dragons are not omnipotent.’
Magic, lifespan, and attribute. Dragons were born with the greatest conditions such that it would be weird if they did not get strong. But their ‘attribute’ or ‘special trait’ that helped make them become strong was also a restriction on the Dragon.
They couldn’t help but be impacted by powers that were incompatible with it.
‘Most Dragons have traits that are the opposite of dead mana or darkness.’
It made sense since they were most experienced with living mana and not dead mana.
‘His power has decreased.’
The grey mana surrounding Rasheel’s body was smaller than before. This proved that Rasheel was being impacted by the power of this black wall.
“Nothing more to see here.”
Dorph turned around without any hesitation.
‘Cale Henituse. I need to stop that bastard.’
Dorph had already felt that the darkness he had cast at the bottom of the pit had disappeared.
Cale Henituse would have seen everything. That bastard will do whatever he could to hinder them, so Dorph had to hurry.
There was one other reason.nove(l)bi(n.)com
‘The Dragon will adapt to this very quickly.’
Unlike the others, the Dragon will quickly find a way to properly use his mana underneath this darkness.
That black Dragon named Raon had already done so once before.
Dorph made eye contact with the Cat tribe leader.
He then motioned toward the mountain peak with his eyes.
‘I’ll head over first.’
That was the meaning inside his gaze. But he could see the Cat tribe leader’s mouth urgently opening.
“...Behind y-!”
Dorph felt chills down his back before the Cat tribe leader could finish.
“Heh.”
Right behind his back... Actually, it was right behind his neck. Dorph had to roll forward as soon as he heard a low laugh right behind his neck.
Baaaaaang!
His eyes opened wide at the explosion that had taken place and realized that he had just barely managed to dodge.
“...How?”
Rasheel had much more mana around his body compared to before as he stood there in the scattering dust.
“Heh, hehehe-”
Rasheel commented while laughing as if he was very amused.
“Keep dodging. You’re dead if I catch you. Kehehehe.”
He charged toward Dorph again. Dorph gasped in surprise. He had to move with urgency as a Dragon’s physical strength was comparable to his in his present berserk transformation.
“How-?!”
Why was this Dragon not as affected by the black wall?
Actually, why was this Dragon becoming stronger?!
“Why?! Why are you not impacted?!”
Dorph asked, but the response he got was a fist aiming for his head.
He jerked both arms up to block the fist.
Baaaaang!
“Ugh!”
There was a loud bang and Dorph was pushed back by a formidable amount of mana and strength. Rasheel did not miss that moment of opening.
Rasheel’s foot that was covered in so much grey mana that it looked as if it would explode was used to kick Dorph’s calf.
Pow!
“Ugh!”
The impact was so strong that Dorph, the largest of the berserk Lions, was shaken to the core.
Dorph frowned.
“This, crazy-”
‘Why the fuck is a damn Dragon more skilled in fighting like this than using magic?!’
The enemy continued to attack the shaken up Dorph without holding back.
“Did this Lion bitch just call me crazy? Hmm? Huh? Do you want to die? No, I’ll just pummel you until you’re just about to die, kehehehehe!”
Rasheel felt as if he was relieving all of his stress for the first time in a long while.
He peeked toward the black wall while nobody could see him. His smile became thicker.
‘Rasheel-nim, what is your attribute?’
Rasheel had a conversation with Cale a while back. He recalled the conversation he had had with Cale while Raon had been on Cale’s back.
‘Me?’
Rasheel had confidently responded to Cale who was asking about his special trait.
His attribute that was more hostile and destructive than anybody else’s was his pride and joy.
‘Indomitability.’
‘...Excuse me?’
‘My special trait is indomitability!’
Raon and Cale had looked confused, but Rasheel had not noticed as he continued talking with pride.
‘It is a very offensive and destructive attribute.’
‘...Rasheel... That is what indomitability means?’
Raon had tilted his head in confusion.
‘Human! Doesn’t indomitability mean that you will not submit under any situation and overcome everything-? I, isn’t it used in a different way than for attacking?’
‘My, my. Little kid, you still have a lot to learn.’
Rasheel then explained the true meaning of his attribute to Cale and Raon.
‘Thanks to this indomitability attribute, I am not impacted by environments that should negatively affect my mental or physical strength.’
‘...You are not impacted by the environment?’
‘Yes. This great Dragon’s attribute has an even more amazing factor.’
‘What is that, Rasheel-nim?’
Rasheel became excited after seeing Cale looking very interested and thoroughly explained.
‘To beat the enemy down or pummel them to death! As my desire to win no matter what grows deeper, my Indomitability attribute gets even stronger in negative environments. I become almost invincible during those times. Kehehe.’
‘...Rasheel! How is that used for attacking? I still don’t get it!’
‘Tsk tsk.’
He explained something he learned throughout his Dragon life to the little Dragon.
Gashan smiled while remembering Cale’s stoic expression. His smile was directed at the Vice Captain.
The Vice Captain had asked about the people fighting here right now.
The answer was already predetermined.
“We are an organization trying to rescue the Eastern continent.”
“...An organization? What is its name?”
“Ah, its name is-”
He had not discussed a name with young master Cale.
Gashan debated for a moment but decided to use the value that Cale was pushing for.
“We are the Society of Peace.”
“...The Society of Peace?”
The Vice Captain had never heard about this organization.
“That’s right. That is our name. Did you know...”
Gashan walked toward the Vice Captain.
Caw. Caw.
As the crows continued to caw... Gashan looked at the Vice Captain and spoke to the Sez Kingdom’s troops who were looking at him.
“The person who abducted the Sez Kingdom’s king is someone called the White Star.”
Actually, Cale had done it.
But besides that lie, Gashan told the people in front of them about the truth that they didn’t know about.
“Furthermore, there are citizens of the Endable Kingdom, an ally of the Sez Kingdom, imprisoned inside this mountain. This was all done by this crazy villain called the White Star. Ah, there may be some of you who do not know about the Endable Kingdom. Mm, to tell you everything......”
Gashan quickly but thoroughly delivered his message to the Sez Knights Brigades, mages, and soldiers.
They looked as if they could not believe what Gashan was saying.
But they still accepted Gashan’s guidance and quickly headed toward these allies called the Society of Peace. They needed to help this organization of good that was fighting against this evil villain called the White Star.
One of that great villain’s most loyal subordinates was going crazy right now.
Baaa, baaaaang, baaaaang! Bang!
“Ugh, ugh!”
Dorph had no idea what was going on because Rasheel’s attacks were slowly getting stronger.
He could not understand why Rasheel was getting stronger even though he had strengthened the black wall. He debated whether this Dragon had the darkness attribute, but that wasn’t it.
“Fuck!”
Dorph chose to escape.
He charged toward the mountain peak as quickly as possible.
“Oh?”
‘Crap!’
He heard a crazed voice behind his back. It was a formidable reaction speed.
Rasheel grabbed Dorph by the back of his neck.
“Ugh!”
Dorph felt as if he couldn’t breathe because of the strong grip as he made eye contact with the Dragon.
“I guess you think that Dragons are nothing.”
Dorph then saw a grey fist landing on his face.
He quickly raised his arms. The grey mana slammed into the arms of the Lion King, the strongest individual while berserk.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!”
And those arms broke instantly.
The stronger the black wall became and the angrier Rasheel became, the stronger his body and mana became. They were strong enough to easily defeat Dorph now.
In some aspects, Rasheel was the most incompatible enemy for Dorph. There might have been different results if Rasheel went up against someone else, but Cale had stuck Rasheel on Dorph and that had pretty much sealed Dorph’s fate.
As for the other leader who was trying to move to the top of the mountain as well...
“...You motherfucking bastards......!”
Ron was in front of the Cat tribe leader. On and Hong were releasing a red fog as they walked toward him while cutting off all paths of escape.
The Cat tribe leader stopped running away.
He needed to stop what Cale Henituse was doing on the mountain peak, but he could not accept the two beings getting in his way.
“You bastards, you dare to attack me to pay me back for the grace I showed you by keeping you alive-!”
The tribe leader’s eyes had an odd glow as he looked at On and Hong.
He was going berserk.
The Cats’ berserk state was different from the Wolves and Lions who became stronger and more destructive.
They became quicker, sharper, and the special ability held by a select few of the Fog Cat Tribe became stronger as well. For the tribe leader, it meant that his fog ability became amplified.
“What do you mean by grace?! Stop with the nonsense!”
On bared her fangs toward him.
Hong stood next to his sister and closed his eyes as he slowly took some breaths.
On and Hong. In the quiet moment as the tribe leader’s change was happening...
“Oh my.”
Ron leisurely walked in between them.
“Tribe leader. You don’t seem to understand the situation.”
“What?”
Ron smiled and pointed to the mountain peak. On and Hong looked up as well and their faces lit up while the Cat tribe leader looked extremely desperate.
They all heard Ron’s relaxed voice.
“It looks like our young master-nim has achieved his goal to some degree. I suppose we don’t need to drag this out any longer.”
The tribe leader turned his head toward Ron.
“Go on and go berserk. I shall show you the official art of the Molan household.”
It was at that moment.
On a place higher than the mountain peak... They heard noises from the sky on top of the black wall.
Rumble- ruuuuuuuuumble-
It sounded like the clouds just before a thunderstorm happened.
The citizens of the Sez Kingdom standing outside the mountain curled up in fear at this new situation, but it was an extremely welcome noise for Cale’s allies.
“...Thunderbolts!”
The Mercenaries Guild’s Ranger Brigade members pointed to the sky.
Ruuuuumble- ruuuuuuumble-
They could slowly see flashes of rose gold light trying to pierce through the black wall.
The rose-gold thunderbolts looked ready to strike down at any moment. They were roaring while waiting for orders from their master.
