Chapter 116: Rebirth of the Legends (I)
I sent out a massive killing intent out towards everyone around me filled with hostility.
"B-b-be careful!" A soldier stuttered in fear, holding his sword in front of him, shuddering violently. "She's going to kill you if you don't pay attention!"
Soldiers halted immediately from his words. They waited in fear for me to attack, because of their instincts telling them instead to run away. The thought of fighting a dragon terrified them.
A brave soldier moved forward, running towards me, screaming at the top of his lungs. He slashed towards me with everything he got in hysteria. I twisted my body and evaded his attack. I was able to see his movements a lot more slowly than before, my dragon eyes were able to see things differently than in my human body. This was the reason why I could decimate hundreds of soldiers without being harmed.
The bravery of the spurred the others forward as another sprung towards my back. I turned, swinging my tail as it hit the soldier squarely in the chest. He flew backward into the other soldiers as they toppled over. Another, I swiped with my claws shredding them pieces. It was a perfect one-hit kill.
All it took was a split moment for another to angrily come storming at me with swords drawn. The soldier bares his teeth and rushes towards me with his sword held up high. I read the soldier's movement calmly, matching him with each beat of his step. My left claw clashed against his sword in a flash while my other hand came around in a circle and crushed him.
The high adrenaline pumped through my system, exciting me in a bloody frenzy. I was so immersed in the battle around me that I didn't hear the sudden shout not too far away.
"Come forth, Ignis!" A young mage had cast a spell over his head and aimed it at me.
The fireball came hurtling down as it hit me squarely in the back, causing me to slightly falter forward. No harm was caused by the only agitation. Smoke surrounded me, blinding me temporarily, covering my body.
At first, the soldiers cheered out in glee when the fireball hit me on the back. Wind picked up, clearing the smoke that surrounded me. Voices died down as they saw how I was still standing.
"An abomination." A soldier gulped in fear. He stumbled backward as I stared down at them evilly. "That should've burned it to ashes!"
My head twirled towards the Magician that hit me in the back. My lips became a thin line when I saw more and more magicians appearing in the fight. I knew then that the third General here was bringing reinforcements.
"Barrier!" The Magician hurriedly called out in fear, when he saw me rushing towards him. I lowered my head and bulldozed my way through. My claws slashed downwards in one swipe, cutting him in half. Blood spurted everywhere as I continually decimated the Magician's like a headless chicken.
When I was done, I turned my gaze towards the surrounding soldiers, they froze in fear at how easily I was cutting through them like butter. Inhaling deeply, my stomach started to rumble from the fire brewing in my stomach. I blew out a torrent of flames, catching everyone in the vicinity. People screamed in pain as they burned to death, eventually only leaving a sizeable scorching mark on the ground as the horrible smell of burning flesh lingered in the air.
I huffed, trying to clear my sinus from the nasty smell. Killing so many people was something that I never expected to happen so quickly in my life. In actuality, the first kill wasn't brutal when I saw them as some kind of monsters trying to harm my people instead of humans.
"Kill her!" The soldier cried out in a frenzy.
"Don't let her spew out another fire, breath!"
"Honor for our fallen brethren!" They rallied to their cry.
The soldiers rushed forward with their spears, shield, and swords. They viciously slashed in the hopes of harming. I tail lashed on, slamming into their body, then followed up with a fire breath. Even though I had spat out fire all around me, more soldiers were quickly replaced. At this rate, I knew that I would get completely overwhelmed.
"Get back!" I barked, coughing up a gust of fireball that exploded on the ground on impact. This threw back a bunch of soldiers away from me as they wallowed on the ground in pain. I willed my wings to sprout out from my back. Skin began to break, allowing the freshly made wings to emerge.
I shuddered in pain.
"A Devil's messenger." Someone whispered in shock when they saw my full white wingspan. My feathery scales glistened underneath the sunlight, giving it an angelic feeling.
"Devil's messenger?" A smile slipped out of my mouth, freezing everyone around me. "If that's what you want, then so I shall be." With a strong pump of my wings, I shot upwards into the sky, blasting everyone backward.
Concentrating all my energy into my mouth, I felt the cold air circulating around me. Ice shards started to form into daggers, floating beside me facing downwards.
I breathed in a deep breath and shot all the energy that I had accumulated downwards. Ice shards pelted downwards like hail upon the enemy, piercing their body and killing them. Even my ice breath froze everything that it touched, creating a nice ice field.
Hundreds of human statues littered the ground, creating a beautiful scenery of ice sculptures. Swooping down, I used my claws to render my prey into human noodles, but all of a sudden, I felt a sharp pain as something pierced my wings.
I faltered in the air and fell crashing down. Groaning, I turned my head to my back and noticed a hole created by a javelin was present. Sharp pain erupted outwards when I shook my wings lightly. I knew that my dragon wings were the only thing that easily got damaged.
Willing magic around the gaping hole, I activated my flesh to slowly close.
"Die!" A sharp husky voice cried out. General Gravion had come forth with a sword in hand and swooped down to cut off my neck.
My hands quickly reached upwards, stopping the blade before it reached my neck. I pushed upwards, slowly getting up to my feet effortlessly.
"What the hell are you?!"
"Me? In your opinion, an Abomination, of course." My tongue slithered outwards like a snake. "General of the human race. Do you want to test how far your kind can last under my power?"
General Gravion pulled back his sword before he could get squashed and sharply turned his body around to cut my sides. I pulled back, just in time, as the tip of the sword grazed my chest. My blood was boiling in excitement; every time I changed my body into a dragon form, my instincts were pleased with the hunt. The humanity left in me was slowly being pushed towards the back of my mind, and instead, the Dragon me was emerging quickly taking over.
All the fear I had of changing into my dragon form was washed away in an instant. It was hard to hold back the urge to go back into my human form. How I missed the feeling of flying and even rolling around in the comfort of my dragon skin. The sheer power that I had was delicious.
I couldn't help but feel stupid that I had such "human" like thoughts and worries. My face started to change into my dragon form. Long white neck wiped around and smashed into General Gravion's body, flinging him across the open area and onto a tree. Two elegant horns grew out of my head, and hair like fur ran down my back. I became larger and larger into my proper form. Compared to the Black Dragon of legends, I was the complete opposite and instead gave off a holy and etheric feel.
"Human of the Dragon Kingdom. You have picked the wrong time to invade my land. You have come to steal and harm my people for your own greed!" My voice was musical but vicious, fear etched into every soldier that saw what I was before them. They knew that the Black Dragon legend and what they could do, and before them, the legend was coming into reality.
Even the citizens on the wall saw me and gasped in wonder and fear. They held in their breath, wondering what I would do next.
"A dragon!" An enemy soldier cried out in hysteria. Formation between the enemy was starting to break down into chaos.
"Run! We're going to be eaten!"
"Gah!"
"Someone save me!"
My tail whipped around, causing a large group of soldiers to be flung back into the trees. Ice erupted out of my mouth, freezing everything in sight.
Relief filled my people's hearts when they saw that I was on their side as I devastated the enemy before me. They were filled with vigor and pushed forward in pushing the enemy back.
General Gravion was able to get back on his feet, but this time he didn't attack. Instead, he called out towards his army. "Don't be afraid! We are from the long line of the past Heroes that slew countless dragons! Stand with me, and we shall bring down another one in the great name of our Dragon Kingdom!"
The enemy started to refocus from General Gravion's words. I couldn't help but gaze in admiration; he was a natural-born leader that guided his army with an iron fist and motivated them to push forth an oncoming danger. He was a threat to my people, and he was on the top of my list to kill.
I ran forward, bulldozing through the soldiers who blocked my path. My teeth snapped and spat out ice magic from my mouth, eventually coming face-to-face with General Gravion before me.
"Dragon! I will kill you here today!" General Gravion shouted he pointed his sword towards me. I smelled no fear in his body, but excitement at the thought of slaying a legend. I couldn't help but be excited at the challenge in front of me.
"I welcome you to try." A gust of powerful ice magic spat forth, freezing his soldiers in a blink of an eye.
