Chapter 243: Thunder and fire (2)
DRAGON LAIR
''Arghh'' some yelled out loud, seized by fear, their scream is full with dread. The dragon suddenly pped its wings and the force created by simply pping its wings was enormous.
The winds are like storms. Wind is raging through the cavernous area. Some of Arial troops are thrown back, hitting their body to the stony surface and the hills around the caverns.
Some are smashed to death by its force. Then dragon opens its n mouth and it roars, the sound was like the thunderous roars of the sky of a lightning storm
Some of Arial troops were thrown back by its intensity. Their ears seem to be bleeding and their knees and hands are trembling with absolute fear.
"Whaaaa"
Some of them turned around and tried to escape. The Kobold on the other hand prepares their swords, unsheathing it with calm and ferocity in their eyes even as their ears ae bleeding
The Orcs prepare their mace, holding their position like disciplined soldiers. The Dark Elves, some of them tried to escape, with their hands on their ears, dripping blood from their nose and ears.
The Dwarves seem dazed.
The dragons move and began pping its wing, showing its massive wing and creating a storm of turbulent wind gust in the area
Arial had to dodge the wind gust as the dragon flew upwards and broke the first level of the ceiling of the cavern and then as it had a little space in the air, it swooped down and eat one of the Dark Elven
As the dragon chews the Dark Elven, the Dark Elven screams filled the cavern, like a warning.
Arial looked upward and notice there is anotheryer of ceiling. This cavern is huge he mused.
He is still fearless.
Arial is trying to use the cavern to his advantage but before he could see any further above he realizes that the stone ceiling is falling and will crush his troops.
''Dodge it! The ceiling ising down!'' Arial yelled to Vmina as he sees the debris of the ceiling began falling down to the ground.
Vmina heard the shouts and immediately take actions. The others are not so lucky.
Some of them were crushed to a puddle of blood when one of the huge rock lodged dive onto an Orc. And he was not the only one.
Some were crushed by a huge boulder, turning into mashed meat under the impact of something so heavy andrge.
But Vmina is calm and collected and shows her agility.
Vmina is like the wind, dodging, using the debris as a stepping stone as she keeps running upwards to approach the flying dragon.
She even had the chance to provoke Arial, grinning at him, like saying ''Come if you dare''
Arial could not help but marvel her agility in battle. The unlucky ones were crushed to death; their screams resounded in the caverns.
Blood flowed. Screams heard. Pain and carnage began. And Arial knew that he still had to the hard work.
It thought it would end that easy.
''SET THE FORMATION. THIS IS IT. LET US FIGHT! ATTACK!'' Arial jump upwards and led the charge with glint of fire in his eyes.
Some of the troops took a smart approach and hide around the hill inside the caverns and attack from a distance.
The dwarves also use the same approach.
The Kobold and the Orc started an all-out assault.
The dragon then swings its tail and two of Arial troops below it was caught by the whipping force of the dragon tail and were smashed to death on the nearby wall, leaving a stain of blood in the wall surface of the cavern.
Both of them exploded because of the impact force of the attack
Then the dragons opened its mouth and Arial seeing this yelled. Arial could see fire is forming from inside itsrge throat.
''Run from his line of attack!!'' Then fire, of such great heat poured out from its mouth, melting Orcs, Kobolds and Elves and hills, stones and metals.
The iron shields melted into molten metal merging with the swords and axes and maces and thest remains of the dead troops.
A fire that melted everything. Fire that melted anything.
For a moment, all Arial could smell is fire and charred corpse. The smell of death is all around him but he is lucky in that he avoided the fire in time.
This is a dragon. You do not underestimate it.
In one attack one hundred of his troops fall in battle. All of them is turned to charred ashes and the smell is revolting and suffocating as smokes fills the cavern area.
It is lucky that they did not meet this beast in an open in.
Arial believed if they met it at an open in, its one breath could burn three thousand troops or maybe more. The cavern surrounding help restrict its movement.
Arial gripped his hand tighter
''if I do not die by you, I would die by the poison. Then I have no choice but to kill you'' he said
The sight of the dragon is monstrous.
The world inside the caverns shakes.
Hills and rocks were melted in fiery breaths as smokes rises upwards mixed with the dust of the debris making visibility dropped down.
This is why dragons are called the strongest creature in the world. Vmina pulled out her sword and rushed forward fearlessly.
''WHAT ARE YOU DOING ARIAL! LET''S KILL THIS BEAST!'' she screamed as she swings her sword and something slices the air around the dragon and it hit the dragon.
A powerful force came from her sword. And it snapped the dragon. Arial knew she is not an ordinary woman.
After he calm himself down, taking a deep breath, he entered the battle. Arial jumped around the ledges of the first ceiling of the caverns and then he leaps toward the dragon, unleashing a sword attack.
Vmina and Arial, they are tangling with an ancient creature, powerful and imposing but they did not lose in terms of power. Every sh of Arial sword has tremendous crushing power.
If it was human he is fighting, no one would survive his sword strike.
Every strike sends a shakes to the surrounding and to those who look at this battle it was like the Battle of the Gods.
With endless stamina, Vmina is running around on the dragonrge body inflicting damage while avoiding being burned by the dragon breath.
The constant hunting has improved Vmina speed and dodging abilities.
Arial and Vmina is dancing around the dragon, a perfect bnce of speed and power, overwhelming the sick and awakened dragon.
''They are monsters'' the Kobold said while looking at Vmina and Arial fighting the beast on equal grounds.
They all looked from the grounds as each sh produce a spark of fire and produces sound waves.
Imagine this scene.
A woman and a young man are using their surroundings, the nearby cliff, and the jagged cavern wall, to fly around the dragons, jumping and dodging its tail.
Running around its body, avoiding its ws and its fiery breath while slicing, shing, stabbing their way around the dragons.
Every strike, every sh imparted itself on the cavern.
Each time their weapon strikes the dragon, a sound like thunder is produced and all around these two warriors are fire and blood.
Vmina technique that infuses mana on her attack made even the Dark Elves trembles in their spot.
The sound of a thunder, a thunderous sound that is produced by Vmina strikes, as sparks of lightning are formed each times her strike hit the scale of the dragon
They are fearless. They are inevitable. They are.... something else. That is the thoughts of those troops looking at the battle up in the air.
The Orcs is ashamed at themselves to lose heart after the first attack.
''Let us help them.'' Quickly the mercenaries enter battle again but everyone knew that this battle will be decided by Arial and Vmina.
Whether they will live or die here, it depends on everyone to bring down this beast
They joined in and try to inflict damage to the dragon feet which jutted out thanks to Arial and Vmina who is blocking the dragon to fly to the secondyer of the cavern
The dragon is restricted by Arial and Vmina constant attack while the group marvel the cooperation between Arial and Vmina.
A legend is born that day.
Arial does not hesitate to protect Vmina and Vmina protect Arial back, providing distraction. And thus begins their battle.
With thunder and fire.
