Chapter 83 (1)
The dragon was injured in the air, it was suffering from intense pain.
Tatsumi and the flying dragon are directly connected by the chain of “Amaryllis”. In this state, if the flying dragon moves violently, the lightweight Tatsumi will be swaying out of control.
The dragon’s body had tremendous power and there was no way for Tatsumi to keep holding on to the dragon. So, he pulled the chain from the flying dragon and collected it back to his hand.
The chain, which returned to Tatsumi’s hand according to Tatsumi’s will, wrapped around a gauntlet while making a soothing noise.
‘ Amaryllis ‘ easily penetrated through the outer shell of the flying dragon, and the magic certainly destroyed the flying dragon from the inside. However, Tatsumi was too small compared to the flying dragon. The difference in body size made it impossible to destroy the fly dragon’s body with a single hit of ‘Magic Strike’.
Here is an analogy. Imagine sticking a small needle into a large chunk of meat and trying to bake the entire meat with just the heat transmitted from the needle. The analogy is similar, but in this case, the needle is the weapon and the large chunk of meat is the dragon.
If you destroy the dragon from the inside with ‘Assault’ using the chain of Amaryllis, you will eventually be able to kill the flying dragon. However, no one knows how long it would take to kill the dragon.
Tatsumi was not worried about magic being used. As an exterminator, he was able to continue absorbing magical powers from his surroundings, so no matter how much magic he used his magical power will never run out. Rather, he was worried about his physical strength.
With Acceleration, Momentary Transition and Magic Strike in play, the flying dragon is going to die soon.
If Tatsumi was to go back down to recover his strength with magic, it would waste too much time. However, it is the determination of one’s heart that truly fuels one’s strength.
Even if Tatsumi was to leave the flying dragon, Calcedonia and Jadokh wouldn’t be able to stop the flying dragon completely.
As a flying dragon, it is a living thing, and it may instinctively choose to escape if its life is being threatened. It would not be strange for a flying dragon, who got seriously injured, to choose to escape.
However, if it flies away from this place, some towns and villages that are not in the royal capital may be attacked.
After all, Tatsumi had no choice but to stop the dragon here.
Tatsumi, who just made the decision, once again disappeared from sight.
The next moment he appeared on the flying dragon, which still drifted its body vigorously in the air.
Tatsumi wanted to kill the dragon by stabbing its head.
No matter how strong the dragon is, it is still a living thing. It definitely can not survive if Tatsumi stabs its head.
It was difficult trying to destroy the dragon’s body with ‘Magic Strike’, but it should be much easier destroying the head with Magic Strike.
Tatsumi then appeared near the neck area of the dragon. Then, using the chain of “Amaryllis,” he chained the dragon’s body.
The chain wrapped around the body of the flying dragon again. He stabs the dragon near the area.
No matter how violent the flying dragon is, as long as the chain is not broken, it is nearly impossible to disentangle Tatsumi.
“Now, *Hiryu let’s see. My strength or your head, which one collapses first.” Tatsumi said as he inhales a large breath, reflecting the light of his determination.
“This game is over!”
A golden light flows into the body of the dragon through the chain to the head of the flying dragon, while Tatsumi clung to the flying dragon.
The flying dragon is still violently raging in the air while making a painful noise. However, the chains made of gold metal didn’t break, and Tatsumi kept clinging to the flying dragon while transferring magic into the flying dragon.
Despite being anchored, using ‘Amaryllis chain’ and clinging on to the flying dragon consumed a lot of energy. But, he was dead set to destroying the flying dragon’s head using ‘Magic Strike’.
If this was a game, the physical strength of the dragon would be visualized by a gauge, it would have been possible to see that gauge was losing power slowly and slowly.
Before long, the “physical strength gauge” decreases to just before the red zone. Tatsumi was beginning to get dizzy due to the rapid exhaustion of his physical strength.
He was starting to worry about not being able to stop the *Hiryu. Suddenly, something happened.
The huge dragon’s body, which was rampant in the air, started suffering from convulsions.
It was clearly visible to those who watched the battle from the wall and those who looked up at the sky from all over the capital city.
Silence befell! And after a moment, the body of the flying dragon slowly started descending.
People were shocked when they saw such a scene. The flying dragon was called, “the king of the sky”. At last, it is evident that Tatsumi won the battle.
From the wall, the castle, each temple and from all over the royal city, everyone cheered the youth who defeated *Hiryu.
But.
The cheers will soon came to a halt. The reason being that the large flying dragon from the sky is about to fall into the capital city.
The flying dragon, who gradually lost its vitality, lost its ability to fly in the sky and began descending slowly.
They were fighting outside the walls surrounding the capital city. But *Hiryu, who had been damaged by the ‘Sage of Magic’, was flying down in pain from the sky, reaching the sky above the capital city.
Tatsumi kept desperately clinging onto the flying dragon and was solely dedicated on destroying the dragon’s head, so much so that he did not even realize that they were above the capital city.
