“Me” “Savior?” “Understand” “Impossible”
Adhai found it hard to believe what Ham Ort had told him.
“I” “Body” “Small” “Strength” “Weakness” “Savior” “Impossible”
She was born with a small and dwarf body. She was lucky enough to meet good people and grow up, but her body is still small. If she is strong, her body size is smaller than that of a hatchling.
That she is the savior? That is impossible.
“You” “It’s true that it’s small” “But” “The first companion” “Taught me” “Savior” “The power of the stars” “It’s related”
“First companion?”
There were females who had mated with black dragons before her, as Ham Ort was the third companion. The first of these females to be mated with was the fifth-ranked ancient dragon.
“First Companion” “Where is it?”
“Dead”
“!”
“Odd Grad” “Truth” “I was afraid” “So” “I killed”
Adhai was shocked when he heard that.
Although he has fallen far down the pecking order due to old age, the first companion is the oldest of his kind in the pack. In terms of respect, he is as respected by his kind as the great Odd Grad.
And yet, he killed his first companion. It was suspicious that Ham Ort was lying.
Adhai used his senses to the best of his ability to examine the pure white female. Her psychic powers extended out and touched Ham Ort’s body. Ham Ort also knew that his daughter was watching him, but he remained still.
After a series of tasks, Adhai was able to confirm that at least Ham Ort believed so.
The death of his first companion was also a sad event for Adhai, as she was the only one of his kind who had treated him well.
Even more so than her biological mother, Ham Ort.
However, the words left by the first companion and whether she was truly special were two separate stories.
Ham Ort said she had the power of the stars, but that didn’t really resonate with her. If she really had that kind of power, she wouldn’t have been captured here.
“The Daughter of the Star” “The Savior” “The Evidence” “There’s More”
“?”
Ham Orc pointed to her grass-colored scales with his forepaw.
“Growth” “More than its peers” “Faster”
“I” “directly” “hunting” “prey” “a lot” “predation”
She objected, but Ham Ort shook his head.
“Wrong words” “No” “But” “Too fast” “Same race” “Growth” “Strength” “Food” “A lot” “A lot” “Needed”
Adhai doesn’t know much about it since he was banished at a young age, but Ham Ort knows.
When she discovered traces of her daughter who had left the star and returned, she felt that the daughter of the meteor had grown abnormally quickly.
Among her congeners, there are quite a few whose scales have changed from aquamarine to green. They are superior to her in both size and the strength they store in their bodies.
But Ham Ort feels that the day is not far off when the body of this little daughter in front of her will be clothed in the same scales and pure white clothes as hers.
The daughter of the meteor has grown to this extent without receiving any of the benefits of the nest where the dragon’s power flows. What does it mean that an exiled being grows faster than her kind who have received all the benefits?
The answer was simple.
The first companion said before he died. The Savior may look humble, but he has tremendous potential. If only the conditions for releasing that potential are met, the daughter of the meteor will be able to blossom into a being that is only known as a legend.
“The Daughter of the Star” “Special Feed” “Necessary”
“Special food?”
“The Body of Kings” “Necessary” “Follow Me”
After shaking her body enough, she got up from her seat. As she went out of the cave, Adhai quickly followed her.
From the day he brought Yoo Seong’s daughter home, Ham Ort went hunting without rest. It was to find food to give to Yoo Seong’s daughter.
And today afternoon, I succeeded in hunting a monster that existed far away. The monster was very large even though it was not fully grown. She could not lift and move it by herself, so her compatriots had to lift and carry it together.
“That?”
Adhai, who had entered the forest together, let out a thought wave. In front of them lay the corpse of a huge beast. The creature’s entire body was torn into several pieces, each piece being larger than the size of a white compatriot.
Ham Ort proudly explained, looking at Adhai, who was tilting his head in front of the beast’s corpse.
“The King of Snakes” “Immaturity” “The Individual” “Ham Ort” “The Hunt” “The Daughter of the Meteor” “Growth” “Catalyst”
She had expected her daughter to be surprised, but Adhai’s reaction was completely different from what she had expected.
“I” “I tried”
“?”
“It was delicious”
「?」「?」
Ham Ort looks embarrassed.
Adhai paid no attention to her reaction and licked his lips as he looked at the Ice Horror’s corpse.
–
Crystal Wing hesitates as she looks at me who has changed. It is understandable to be bewildered when a creature that was not even half as big as her appears and becomes larger than her.
I roared once and charged towards the thing. Perhaps because of the ‘Stealth Maneuver’ effect, my footsteps were barely audible. Only the sound of the trees breaking against my body was audible.
Then I and Crystal Wing collided.
“Kuaak…!”
The one who couldn’t dodge properly because he was flustered screams. Even when my body was small, it had its wings torn off by my horns. It couldn’t be okay if it hit my body, which is longer than its wingspan.
The one with one wing torn off by my charge opens its mouth. Just before the particle beam is fired, support from No. 26 flies in.
“Kueuk?!”
A tree uprooted from its roots flew down and landed in its mouth. As it squirmed, tentacles shot out from my back and wrapped themselves around its wings.
The erosive tentacles quickly tighten like a snake hunting a flying bird. The broad wings tear and bone fragments protrude.
I opened my lower jaw wide to finish him off. My jaw split into two and I was about to swallow his head whole, but he fought back.
The guy who chewed and swallowed the tree that was in his mouth fired a particle beam.
I had to close my mouth quickly as the intense heat burned the roof of my mouth. It is true that my body is stronger than the outer wall of the ship, but that is not the case inside.
The one who overcame the crisis swept the wing with particle rays that were wrapped around tentacles.
“Kuaaaaak!”
To his surprise, the thing shot a ray and tore off its own wing. With its wing destroyed, the thing quickly retreated back, free from the tentacles.
‘Super regenerative ability.’
I thought he had just become an adult, but he’s quite good. He has a very good understanding of his abilities.
In an instant, new wings grew from the wounds of the retreating creature. The creature, with its newly regenerated wings spread wide, flew upward.
He must have realized that he was at a disadvantage in close combat. He changed his strategy to aerial bombardment, which was Crystal Wing’s specialty.
‘But you’re not the only one good at firefighting.’
I already expected him to come out like this. I was also preparing for an artillery battle.
The thing floating above the forest tried to fire a particle beam.
At the same time, the tentacles that had grown up to my neck and chin moved.
The black, glossy shell becomes tinged with purple. The latent energy in the body is converted into psychic power and then gathered at the tips of the tentacles.
The power of the dragon, psychic breath. This is the pure state without activating ‘Color of the Abyss’.
The moment the Crystal Wing male fired his particle beam, the monster tentacles attached to my jaw and neck also radiated strength.
Above the snowy peaks covered in black clouds, turquoise and purple lights clashed.
A thunderous noise like thunder in a storm rings out, and the entire mountaintop shakes violently. Before the noise subsides, the sound of the sky collapsing can be heard from below the peak. An avalanche has occurred halfway up the mountain.
The confrontation between him and me is shaking a mountain. And Number 26 has joined our struggle.
All kinds of objects, such as trees, rocks, ice, and dirt, levitate into the air and spin like a giant drill. This is the technique of No. 26 that previously left fatal injuries to the Ice Horror.
Crystal Wing, seeing that sight, quickly cut off the beam and dodged. My psychic breath passed over the creature’s crest.
The moment their confrontation ended, the psychic drill created by No. 26 was fired at the creature. A mass of intangible energy tore through the air and blew off one of its wings.
“Ku, kuaaaaak!”
The expression “blown away” is not a metaphor. In an instant, the guy’s body is torn in half and he falls to the ground.
Meanwhile, I activated the colors of the abyss. The tentacles that had been glowing with a vivid purple glow were now wearing clothes of mixed colors. Green, purple, and complex colors that were difficult to describe in words were wrapped around the tentacles.
With the colors ready, I activated ‘Gaze of Fear’.
The energy that escaped from my tentacles clumped together in the air. The liquid mass of energy seemed to boil over as if it was being heated by fire.
The amorphous mass, which had been writhing ceaselessly as if it had an ego, transformed into a single, giant bubble.
‘It’s bigger than I thought?’
The ominous colored bubbles looked to be about 5 meters in diameter. I can’t tell now whether it was because they were enhanced by the symbolic effect of hunting, or because my body had returned to its original state.
Soon, a huge bubble began to move towards the target.
The bubble’s target was the bastard’s torso. The bubble flew through the air, causing nightmarish pain to all living things.
“Koo, kuak! Kuak! Kuaak!”
Crystal Wing lets out a fearful cry as she sees the flying terrifying gazer. Her wild instincts must have told her that the bubble is extremely dangerous.
Instead of fighting back, the creature tried to dodge the bubbles by flying away. If he had fired the particle beam at that spot, the bubbles would have burst and rained down on him.
‘I expected that. Next ball… .’
Anyway, this attack was a bluff. Then, when he was about to pull out his prepared move, something surprising happened.
The giant bubble broke into dozens of smaller bubbles and began flying towards him at a much faster speed.
‘Number 26?’
Each and every one of those drops had a thin purple thread hanging from it. The owner of that thread was number 26 behind me.
Thanks to the guy’s help, the bubbles that had been flying at incredible speeds burst in front of the Crystal Wing ship. As the bubbles burst, their contents covered the guy’s head.
The colors spread out like paint mixed in water. As soon as the colors touched him, he stopped in his tracks. He couldn’t think because of the extreme pain.
Now that the bastard is immobile, this is my chance. I deactivate the abyssal color and fire my second psychic breath. The purple heat ray that flew through the scattered snow pierced the bastard’s heart.
“…coup.”
A situation where he lost his heart due to dizzying pain. Crystal Wing stumbled and fell down on the snow. He let out a long sigh as if he was wronged and did not move any further.
The hunt was much easier than I expected, but what was more important was what just happened. Because something completely unexpected happened.
‘I didn’t know it would end this easily.’
Originally, I had planned to subdue them with a distraction tactic utilizing the colors of the abyss. However, thanks to No. 26 showing off his new power, there was no need to use the prepared moves.
‘I knew you were good at handling psychic powers, but…’
I never thought I’d be able to interfere with the supernatural technology I wrote.
‘It looks like it can only intervene in technologies that have the color of the abyss applied.’
Otherwise, he would have assisted me from the beginning when I first shot psychic breath.
‘Or does it have to do with the form of the attack?’
A dense mass of energy like a heat ray might be difficult to control, but it might only be possible to control attacks that are small in size and slow in firing, like bubbles.
‘… Whatever it is, it’s a great achievement.’
Even if he can’t intervene in all of my superpower attacks, it doesn’t matter. If he can control even just the enhanced fear gaze, he can apply it in a lot more diverse ways.
I unconsciously looked back at the guy. The guy facing me was waving one of his tentacles.
“I tried it because I thought it would work!”
A word from a confident guy. There’s only one thing I can say back to him.
[Zuzu zuzuzu (very good job)]
“huh!”
This Crystal Wing strategy was purely for the purpose of improving my mobility, but I gained something unexpected.
I wanted to praise him right away, but there are still enemies left. Let’s talk about No. 26 after we take care of the females.
[Zuzu zuzuzu (Then shall we go?)]
“Yeah. Let’s help the middle child and her friend.”
I ran to help the guys fighting on the peak side with the guy on my back.
About 5 minutes after the male died.
Two pairs of brilliantly shining jewel wings fell side by side on top of an unknown peak.
After two days of waiting, I succeeded in hunting two Crystal Wings.
