I Received System to Become Dragonborn-Chapter 111 First Dungeon Death
Erend blinked a few times.
'What the hell was that?'
Erend looked around in all directions. While still using [Dragon Eyes] Erend could see a monster that looked like a bat hanging right above him.
As soon as Erend saw its presence, the bat immediately slid down towards him and spun around.
Its claws landed on Erend's shoulder and the bat threw Erend to the other side of the cave a second time.
Erend immediately jumped to his feet.
'That fucking bat is fast!'
Erend didn't think that a bat with an abnormal physique would be able to move this fast.
Also, Erend just realized that his shoulders and chest felt a pain that he had never felt before while activating [Dragon Scale].
'Did that monster attack have any effect on me?'
If that was correct, Erend thought it would be very serious. What happens when the strongest protection he's been hoping for, doesn't work as well as he wants it to?
The Bat didn't allow Erend to dwell on his problems. It flew towards Erend and spread its hind legs.
Now when he took a good look at it, Erend could see that the claws on each of its legs were extremely long.
There are three claws on each leg. Due to its size, the bat seemed to have three daggers sticking out of its legs.
The greenish light emitting from its mouth was also very unsettling.
Erend still didn't know what the strange green light could do.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Claw (Lv.1) ]
Claws appeared on both of Erend's hands. He was no longer trying to escape. Instead, he ran over to the bat that was flying at him.
His anger was already burning in his chest from being thrown twice. Erend jumped up while the bat raised its claws.
Erend's claws and the bat's claws clash and scrape sieves. Orange sparks such as those that occur when metals rub against each other appear.
The bat continued to fly to the other side while Erend landed. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢
Erend felt the pain in his hand which collided with the bat.
'It looks like our strengths are on different Levels.'
If this was a game, then Erend was facing a Boss who had a level far above him. A Boss he shouldn't be fighting right now.
But this wasn't a game, so Erend felt that he still had hope of winning.
'Should I raise my Skill Level?'
Erend thought of that as he turned and looked at the bat monster.
But actually, Erend was reluctant to do it. He wanted to use his Skill Points to get another Dragon Skill.
However, now the situation seems to be unfavorable for that plan.
'No, I can still manage!' Erend determined.
He saw the bat hovering above with a silent flap of wings. No sound came out of the bat at all. And that made Erend a little anxious.
Moreover, the bat has incredible speed.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Wings (Lv.1) ]
Dragon's wings grew behind Erend's back.
Realizing that the battle wouldn't be good if he stayed on the ground while his enemy could fly freely, Erend activated [Dragon Wings] to give them a bit of balance in this fight.
Erend flapped the Dragon's wings and shot straight at the bat. But the bat immediately dodged by flying to the side. Its movements were so smooth and fast that Erend couldn't even touch it.
As soon as Erend was in a state of shock because his attacks could be dodged easily, the bat counterattacked just as smoothly.
The bat gripped Erend's face with its claws. Then pushed him until he hit the cave wall.
After that, the bat monster grabbed Erend's neck. Erend felt the bat monster's sharp claws grip his throat and face.
It really worried him because he finally felt for himself how the monster's power penetrated the [Dragon Scale] that was previously impenetrable by any attack.
'This is bad!'
Erend realized his current situation was not favorable.
Unfortunately, the bat monster didn't even give him a chance to worry any longer.
The bat grabbed Erend's face and neck and carried him out of the cave wall.
Erend tries to use his claws to attack. But now his vision was being obscured by the bat's claws so he didn't know where to attack.
Erend just extended his claws and hoped he would hit any part of the bat's body.
But he didn't hit anything.
The grip on his neck grew stronger. Erend even now felt that now the claws had started to pierce his neck.
'I have no other choice!' f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
[ Skill activated: Fire Dragon Transformation (Lv.1) ]
A red light appeared along with a shockwave that spread out in all directions.
The bat monster was blown away by the wave and released its grip.
Dragon-Erend finally appeared in the Dungeon for the first time.
Previously Erend didn't expect that he would use [Dragon Transformation] because he thought this battle wouldn't be this difficult.
The monsters that appeared before were easy enough to deal with, so it made Erend come to that conclusion.
But suddenly this bastard bat monster appeared and made him think of all the conclusions he had come to.
Dragon-Erend spit fire from his mouth accompanied by all kinds of irritation he felt towards the bat monster.
But it turns out the bat monster can dodge the flames easily. He was gliding sideways with a silent flap of his wings. Letting Dragon-Erend's torrent of flames streak past it and hit the cave wall.
*BOOM!*
The cave wall that was hit by the torrent of flames collapsed. A rumbling sound echoed throughout the cave and became the backdrop for the tense battle.
Dragon-Erend continued to hunt the bat monster who also kept avoiding him.
Erend didn't know how such a blind and odd-shaped bat monster could have enough intelligence to continue to dodge well like this.
Not only in terms of dodging, but the bat monster was also smart enough to determine when he could counter-attack.
The bat darted toward Dragon-Erend's face and tried to get its claws into his eyes. But luckily, Dragon-Erend was able to close his eyes in time so the claws just hit his hard eyelid.
,m Then Dragon-Erend swept its claws at the bat like repelling mosquitoes.
But then again, the bat monster was able to dodge it.
Dragon-Erend gritted his teeth. The fire that blazed on his shoulders grew bigger, indicating that now his anger was also increasing.
'Slime!'
Erend called out to Slime. His presence would definitely create an advantage for him.
Unfortunately, the notification Erend saw shocked him.
[ You cannot summon companions in Dungeon Level 1. ]
'WHAT?!'
The bat monster flew again and quickly disappeared from Dragon-Erend's sight by flying behind his head.
Erend couldn't believe what he saw. Can't call a companion? what kind of bullshit is this?
But there's no use getting angry about it now. Maybe this is some kind of restriction because this is still a Level 1 Dungeon.
In that case, Erend must rely on himself in this battle against this strange bat monster.
Dragon-Erend emitted hot steam from all over his body to prevent the bat from getting close. He didn't know if it would work but Erend could only try.
Then Erend turned his body. The bat monster floated with its mouth open. Between his sharp teeth, Erend could see a green glow that was getting brighter and brighter.
Erend now feels like he is seeing that the bat was showing him a mocking smile.
Erend rushes at the bat and shoots a fireball.
*BWOOOSH!*
*BOOM!*
As before, the fireball simply shot past the bat monster and hit the cave wall behind it. But Erend already knew about that possibility.
He shot straight at the bat and swept his claws from two different directions.
Erend also opened his jaw to grab the bat. The bat monster that had been ambushed by attacks from three different directions was already unable to dodge.
However, the bat monster hadn't taken out the weapon he had.
The bat monster opened its mouth and spit out a slightly glowing green liquid into the Dragon-Erend's wide-open mouth.
As soon as the liquid entered his mouth, Dragon-Erend immediately felt something extremely painful from inside his mouth.
The pain was so unbearable that Dragon-Erend finally staggered. He fell on the floor of the cave with a booming sound.
Dragon-Erend was unable to think anymore. [Fire Dragon Transformation] was canceled and he returned to his human form again and the pain continued.
Erend lay on the floor of the cave. The pain was not only in his mouth but now it has spread throughout his body.
Erend's eyes started to blur and bloodshot. Then he lost consciousness. It was then that a notification appeared within his dark vision.
[ You have died. ]
[ Reviving to Dungeon Lobby. ]
[ 3 ]
[ 2 ]
[ 1 ]
...
Erend opened his eyes again at the surface of the empty gray ground. In front of him, the double doors were still wide open.
Erend sighed heavily.
"I really have died."
Erend stared at the door that opened into the dark room. Just now, he had a pretty traumatic experience.
