The dragon's harem-Chapter 809 Swinging The Sun
Chapter 809 Swinging The Sun
As the ashes faded away, nothing was left on the circus's stage only fire and brimstone. The sheer heat and magic gushing out made the beavers pass out and even Arad and Tempo could feel it, how much power Betty backed into that massive combo.
"Not yet!" The devil lord that Betty summoned shouted, "This fucker is an abomination! The fight is never over with them!" He clenched a fist and then extended his claw, fire sparking out of his wings as he started unleashing each remaining drop of his curse.
"Betty! We can't hold back against this thing, I'm going all out!" The devil's magic expanded into a burning aura as he swung his arm, conjuring a massive seal of fire and skulls around where the abomination was.
A tiny blood droplet floated in the air, and from it, veins expanded out in the blink of an eye. A skeleton formed, one that albeit taking a general humanoid shape, had tens more joins and far denser bones. Seven brains and nine hearts emerged inside the skeleton before the organs filled in and then everything got covered with flesh. One glowing red eye glared at Arad before the body fully healed, the abominable monster regenerated out of nothing in the blink of an eye, his regeneration was off the chart.
Arad expanded his wings, shifted into his half-dragon form, and flew to help the devil lord. "The one who beat Alony? I'm counting on your help!" The devil smiled, conjuring a massive morning star.
"Don't forget about me!" Tempo flew in and cleaved the abomination's neck off, burning the head and upper chest into ash. He then turned around, [Eruption]. With an upward slash, he cut the abomination from the groin up and his blade released an explosion akin to a volcano erupting, blasting the monster into burning ash.
The abomination's left arm survived the blast and got flung into the sky, spinning from the sheer impact of Tempo's attack. The abomination regenerated from it and swung a fist at Betty's barrier while still spinning.
ZON! Arad appeared between Betty and the abomination swung a fist and blocked the abomination's punch with one of his own. Their arms exploded and the abomination giggled, "We're equal in strength, but I'll win in regeneration."
Arad's bone immediately grew back toward the abomination's face and caught him before the flesh could even regenerate. He used gravity magic to move the bones before the muscles could regenerate, allowing him to act a bit faster than the abomination that had faster regeneration.
"Gra…" As the abomination was about to speak, Arad punched him in the guts with a fist engulfed in darkness. Arad was going from blunt damage using the void's shockwave that releases when it absorbs matter, if the flesh is bruised and not destroyed that might make the regeneration harder.
Usually, crushing damage is harder to regenerate than even lost flesh due to needing to remove the damaged flesh before healing. This isn't needed with cuts.
"…vity." The abomination finished the word with a growl as his internal organs got crushed. But even with that, he still swung his fist at Arad's face. He already noticed that Arad protected his head and spine, those are his weaknesses.
Arad opened his mouth and bit the abomination's fist off. The iron jaws of a dragon are a weapon of destruction and violence, trying to punch them in the face is only asking to get chewed off.
The devil's morning star wrapped around the abomination's body and pulled him to the ground.
The abomination spun and swung a kick toward the chain of the morning star, but his mouth was left open as he saw Tempo running on the chair toward him. "To the titan's glory!"
[Rising Burst] Tempo sliced the abomination from the leg up to the skull, exploding him in a burst of lava.
"Betty! Your combo didn't work." Arad looked at her.
"I know. If completely erasing his body wasn't enough to kill him, we have to attack his soul directly." She growled, "It'll take me a while to prepare such a spell."
The memories of his last fight with the dream walkers flashed in his mind, "Abominations don't have a soul!" He and the devil shouted at the same time.
"Wait, what? They do?" Betty gasped, their knowledge conflicted. She was certain the abomination had a soul, but now with two people telling her otherwise, especially since one of them is a devil that lived since the old gods' war, she can't help but rethink her plan.
^Do I waste mana on keeping the expansion up? Do I cancel it and create a powerful soul destruction spell, no, that would be suicide if they didn't have a soul. Is it better to seal him back in, forming a massive sealing spell might be a better bet if nothing but to give them time to think.^ Betty's mind raced in the fraction of a second that the abomination needed to regenerate from Tempo's attack.
"Normal sealing magic won't work! I couldn't even bind him to the nine hells!" The devil flew up and breathed a blast of acid at the abomination's regeneration bits.
Arad flew in through the acid and punched the abomination in the face the moment he finished regeneration and sent him flying to the ground.
The abomination landed on his feet, and Arad pulled the adamantine sword and swung it down, engulfed in flames. He aimed for the abomination's neck but missed and slicked him down the shoulder.
"Those moves?!" Tempo gasped, seeing as Arad shifted his stance.
"Void Eruption" With an upward swing, Arad released the energy he harnessed from crushing matter in the same manner that Tempo did with his magic, blasting the abomination in a beam of pure white energy. He then quickly stored the sword back into his stomach.
"My sword skills?!" Tempo shouted and Arad roared, a chain of plasma emerged from his palm with a [Ho-white Nova] dangling at the end; he started spinning it while releasing waves of gravity magic that forced Tempo and the devil to back away. Even though Doma was helping Arad a bit with maintaining such magic as he was already focusing on curing Zul, the fact he pulled something like this made Betty start sweating.
"HOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Arad roared, swinging the [Ho-white Nova] at the abomination, this was a combination of his spell, Eris's chains, and what he had just witnessed from the devil lord. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
The abomination saw the [Ho-white Nova] flying toward him with a chain and he couldn't believe his eyes. "The sun?" He tried to dodge, but Arad's gravity magic was pulling him and the spell together, he couldn't dodge it.
The nova burned the abomination into ash and reduced him to nothing more than energy from the sheer heat. It exploded in a brilliant blinding burst of light as the plasma chain crackled with lightning, and Arad pulled it back to him.
"Those were my Morningstar moves!" The devil growled, "Is this how Alony lost? How fucking fast is this bastard at learning?" He glared at Betty, "Did you raise a damn monster?"
"It wasn't me! I just met him a few days ago!" Betty cried.
CRACKLE! Arad held the chain and started spinning both ends, in each of them a new [Ho-white Nova] appeared. ^This bastard thinks he's a monster…let's see about that. As long as matter exists in my reach, I'll keep conjuring Novas and smash his head in. My wives are on the surface, I can't let this thing out no matter what.^
"Two at once?!" Tempo lifted his sword, "He can fight like that? I knew he killed Vlad and destroyed the second layer of hell, but isn't this too much power?" He stared at Betty.
"I don't know, don't ask me!" She stared at Arad unable to believe her eyes, he was running out of mana, but immediately sucked back what he used. Mana recycling, she can do it, but not to his extent, simply as she doesn't have the body nor constitution of a dragon.
The abomination started regenerating from the last hit and he glared at Arad with a single eye, burning with rage. "I see, you're the biggest problem here. Just what are you? I don't remember a void dragon swinging a white nova like that… that is Kussuth's move, the goddess of fire." He realized that Arad was swinging two, not one. "What are you doing?"
"I'm nothing more than a husband and a future dad. Your existence endangers my family, I have to protect them. Eliminating any possible threat is my job and duty." Arad stared at the abomination with a passive face and remembered Yuwaku, Serin, and Ignis, his wives above the ground, Mira is pregnant and is now drinking potions, and they hurt her stomach.
One of his wives is suffering now, so he can fight. He can't let this continue.
"That's it; I'm nothing more than a dad doing his best so his wives and children live a calm, peaceful, and fruitful life. You don't exist in that ideal future of them, so you shall die by my claws." Arad started to realize his reason to fight wasn't that different from Lydia's first oath, it was to protect.
"AH!" The abomination gasped, "I remembered my name… I'm Vorvadoss." He said with a mischievous smile, his tongue dangling out as green flame burned out of his shoulders.
