Chapter 247: Three More Hours

White. Nothing, but a pure white light filled the area. The reaches of such a light reached even the extremities of the continent. Some people prayed for safety, while others ran into safety as soon as they sensed the change in the atmosphere. The residents of the continent couldn't catch a good night's sleep ever since the giant serpent showed up. And, now, their peaceful mornings were invaded by the white light.

The light didn't seem to be stopping. Ed's entire KI was put into that attack, and even he didn't know how long it would take for it to stop. He had lost all of his senses inside the white world that he had created. Was he still floating in the air, or did he already hit the ground? Only time would tell him.

Suddenly, the world of white was penetrated by a green line. The dragon lived! The dragon lost most of its scales, and its red blood filled all of its body. The second horn on its head was shattered, while the first one had no trace left. The dragon opened its mouth in an attempt to talk, but no voice could come out. Still, Ed could understand the dragon's intention. It was angry. It was close to death. It didn't want to die. Thus, it attacked even at its last breath.

Ed found himself lying on his back, at the top of the mountain. Nothing obstructed the way between him and the dragon, and Emilia wasn't going to get there in time. The two main parties of the battle were left to their own devices.

Ed stared at the dragon as it closed up on him. Apparently, it used up most of its QI in order to stay alive. It couldn't even use its laser breath anymore. It needed to rely on its most primitive weapons in order to kill Ed. Its talons and fangs.

Suddenly, with less than fifty meters separating Ed and the dragon, something changed within the weaker party. Ed, whose dark eyes lost their shine and turned into hollow pitch black pits, stood up. 'He' grabbed Shusui in his hand and leapt through the air. In an instant, 'He' had already cut the dragon up. Then, 'He' started to fall back toward the mountain.

As the dead dragon and the human body hit the ground, the two dark pupils regained a bit of light as Ed muttered two words 'Thank you.' The boisterous mountain turned quiet in an instant, and after an hour or so, words were finally spoken. It was a notification from the system.

"So, I need to absorb the soul of the dragon now, right?"

[Yeah. You're already late, so you should hurry it up, otherwise, the remnants of the soul will be gone.]

Ed stood in front of the dragon's body and put his hand on the unmoving head. He closed his eyes and sat with his knees crossed, as he sent his KI inside of the dragon's body, looking for its soul. Millions of KI threads invaded the green scaled dragon, and before long there was a reaction.

An extremely hot entity was found inside of the dragon's body. The entity kept burning away all of Ed's KI threads, but the more it burned, the more that tried to drag it back. The KI threads kept coiling around it until they overwhelmed the entity. The threads were able to drag it back faster than it could burn them.

The entity was removed from the dragon's body, and it immediately had an effect. The body turned pale, and the remaining scales started to fall off like dust being scrubbed from a window. The dragon's body was useless.

The green fiery entity entered Ed's body, and he could feel his whole body burn from the inside. In fact, even his companions could feel the heat coming out of his pores. Emilia decided to help by creating ice cubes around him, but they melted as soon as they were ten centimeters away from Ed.

The entity tried to reject Ed, but he didn't allow it. It was down to a fight of willpower, and Ed, by using Haki, was more than its match. Inside of a black area inside of Ed's body, a black flame, similar to the entity, dragged the latter towards it. The entity kept struggling but soon realized that its situation was hopeless. Thus, it gave up.

The black flame kept twisting the entity around it until it turned into an eastern green-scaled dragon flame. Ed was successful. He managed to get a dragon spirit Avatar. Now, he was a step ahead in power.

"So, it seems to be a success," Ed said, as he scratched his head and looked at his companions, with a goofy smile on his face.

"If it wasn't a success, I'd be looking for a new master to serve," Mehen jokingly said as he slithered up to his favorite resting spot, Ed's shoulders.

"It's been an awful fight, but we gained a lot of things. For now, let's go back to get some more information about Blood sect's master!" Ed said as he stood up, but as soon as he did, he felt nauseous, and his feet couldn't support him.

'What's wrong with me?' Ed asked the system as he supported himself on the ground with his hands.

[You've exerted your body too much. You'll need three more hours to be able to move on your two feet. And no, you can't fly either. This is what you get for using Berserk skill consecutively, you idiot!]

Ed could only smile as he stared the sunset above the clouds.

"Uhm, maybe it's not so bad to enjoy the view for a little longer…three hours longer…" Ed said with closed eyes and a smile. His comrades, of course, facepalmed.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
Shigun Shigun

Hello everyone! I finished my presentation, it was good I think...Enjoy the chapter!

Chapter 248: Are You Mad?

"Uhm…guys? GUYS?! Can you please let me down? This is getting ridiculous…" Ed spoke while rolling his eyes. Yet, even though his eyes completed a full circle, all he could see was the sky and a stick. Rather than a stick, it was a tree.

"Emilia, can't you stop them? And you, Bella, you should be helping your brother dearest…Oy, why are you laughing?!" Ed wanted to move, but his body didn't allow him. He was too helpless in front of the wrath of his comrades.

"You've brought this upon yourself. Plus, you can't move, can you? Consider this your transportation method." Emilia, who was walking at the front, turned back to talk to Ed. But, she couldn't keep a straight face for long, so she turned back to the front. Giggling sounds could be heard from her directions.

"I know I can't move, but this is just ridiculous. You could have put me on Mehen's head…so, why am I tied to a tree and being moved around like a prisoner than was caught by primitive people?!" Ed shouted, as his hands and feet were tied to the tree in his field of vision. "Plus, couldn't you choose people with equal heights? My blood is rushing to my head, and my eyes will pop anytime soon!"

Ed complained as the two carrying the tree were Goburou and Garu. Since Garu was much taller than Goburou, and since he was holding the end with Ed's legs, there was a slight tilt.

"Beggars can't be choosers, hehe." Bella, the one ally Ed thought he would always have by his side, said as she made a shaking motion with her finger. Suika was next to her, mimicking while finishing her sentence with a 'Suu!"

"You guys…" Ed gave up and allowed gravity to make his head fall towards the ground. 'At least they're blocking my mouth with something, I won't be able to spend time without talking to anyone.' Ed thought to himself. And, just as he sucked in a breath of relief, he noticed a figure flying above him. Two wings and a jet-black hair. What people would consider an angel, looked at Ed with a devious smile. To him, it appeared like the highest ranking demon.

"Uhm, don't you guys think that we can use one of these fruits to block his mouth? That way he won't bother us anymore!" As soon as Merry spoke, everyone stopped. They looked at Ed, and then they looked at the fruit-filled trees surrounding them from every direction.

"You can't be serious, right? You don't even know if those fruits are safe to eat…" Ed tried to speak some reasoning into them, but his words fell on deaf ears. It was all set into stone once Emilia said, "It's okay. Even if they are poisonous, an Immortal Establishment super genius such as yourself won't suffer from it…I think?" Emilia put one finger on her chin and closed her eyes.

'Monsters…They're all monsters!' Ed, that day, finally felt like his companions were actual monsters. Then, he turned his head towards his oldest and most trustworthy companions, and said, "Raikou, you should hel…"

Just as Ed tried to ask for help, the sight that greeted him was not what he expected. His trust? Betrayed! His hope? Completely gone? His feelings? What feelings? On his right, Raikou, whose QI began to return, used it to make shadow hands and grabbed one of the fruits high up on the trees. While the others were still deliberating, Raikou decided on his next step.

"RAIKOUUUUUU…" Ed's shout was cut in half as a juicy fruit stopped him from talking.

"I don't have any money!" The group disturbed a sleeping Vortigern again, and he reacted in almost the same manner.

"Mmme! Mmmm!" Ed's muffled words of annoyance failed to reach his companions, and now his only hope was his grandfather.

"Uhm…Welcome back, everyone. Is Ed somewhere else I can't see him?" A lie. Everyone knew that it was a lie. Vortigern actually made eye-contact with Ed prior to looking the other way and speaking. He was ignoring the current situation. He denied the reality that he was put under.

"You can all go to get some rest. Of course, inside the cave. Ed will figure something out for himself," Vortigern said as he lifted the waterfall again.

'They…They don't plan on leaving me here do they?!' Ed started to panic once he noticed Goburou and Garu putting down the tree.

[If it was me, I would find a pack of wild monsters and leave you with them.]

'Thanks for your love…' Ed rolled his eyes at the unwelcomed answer he got.

He felt alone as the night's cold wind brushed past him. The trees swayed around, and the leaves rustled. Only the sounds of nature accompanied Ed, along with his silent system. But, he suddenly heard a crunch coming from behind him. He was, still, bound to the tree, so he couldn't turn around. And he couldn't speak either, as the fruit was replaced by a cloth.

"I'm sorry for taking the joke too far. I hope you're not mad," Ed recognized the sweet voice almost instantly. It was Emilia, and she made quick work of the rope binding Ed. She removed the cloth inside Ed's mouth, causing him to breathe in and out. He was finally free.

"Are you? Mad?" Emilia put her hair behind her ears as the moon's silver rays shone above her. Ed looked at her with a smile and said, "I am…and I should tell you, three hours are up. You've all had your fun, now it's time for me to have mine." He stood up and towered above Emilia. Then, in a swift motion, Emilia was above his shoulder.

"Let me down!" Emilia 'struggled' against the tired Ed as she struck him in the back with he small fists.

"Never!" Ed shouted back as he raised his fist into the sky. Then, he looked towards the waterfall, and said with a powerful voice, "I'm coming for you! All of you!" there was no doubt that those inside heard him, as some of them turned invisible, someone dove into the shadows, while some scurried off into different parts of the cave.

Only one person, who was sleeping, shouted, "I don't have any money!"
