Chapter 567: Two for two

Michael sourly tosses the mangled Frost Giant skull up and down in his hand as he and the others walk towards an icy river that was directly under the Temple of Auriel.

"Are you still mad at me killing that thing?" Saeko humorously asks.

"Mad? No, just disappointed..."

"That won't work on me, it didn't work for my father and it wouldn't for you." she states with folded arms.

"You had a shitty father too? Maybe we're best friends after all!" Serana snarks at the side.

Michael tosses the skull over his shoulder and into the snow, "Alright, let's stop playing around and fight these dragons. I'll take one while you take the others... Also, stay off of the ice, neither of you can fight underwater so don't risk it." he states and the duo nod.

With that, he takes one step onto the ice covering the lake and-

*CRAAAAAAAAAAAASSSHH!*

*SPLLAAAASSH!*

Two huge dragons smash two large whole in the ice as they fly out from the water, destabilising the rest of the surface and leaving huge splintering cracks. If it wasn't already perilous to walk on, it certainly was now.

"DIR, VOLAAN!" both dragons roars simultaneously, just as Serana fires a lightning bolt at one, hoping to draw its attention away so Michael could focus on the other... Unfortunately, these weren't like the mindless in the game, these were intelligent, twin dragons, who had fought side by side for countless centuries.

They fly upwards for a time, circling each other in a sort of spiral before they both turn and begin diving towards Serana, side by side.

"AUS JOOR!" they roar and start to breathe fire, "YOL-" but are interrupted as a blur slams into one of them...

"Not so tough when your enemy can fly, huh!?" Michael exclaims as he presents his smoking, bloodied first that'd just punched a dragon straight in the face, or snout if you want to be specific. At his back were his icy wings gifted by Auroth, which when combined with [Convection] allowed him almost the same freedom in the air as the dragons themselves.

The one he'd punched slams into the icy surface below, submerging underwater as the other turns with a fierce glare. "BO LIR! ZU'U WAH BONAAR HI!" (FLYING WORM! ALLOW ME TO HUMBLE YOU!) "VEN GAAR NOS!" it shouts, causing a powerful wind to form underneath Michael and vacuum him downwards. He tries to resist it but he wasn't nearly strong enough in the air to resist the pull, throwing him to the ground with great force.

He ends up under the ice like the other dragon, and just as his eyes adapt to the underwater environment he spots the beast rapidly swimming towards him like an enraged crocodile. It tries to bite him, but he responds with a kick to its chin which forces its head upwards, slamming its snout into the bottom of the icy surface of the lake, actually cracking it from the force.

Unfortunately, this world didn't work like Michael expected, allowing the dragon to look down at him and shouts "FOH KRAH DIIN!"

Instantly, all of the water around him freezes solid, locking him in place and attempting to suck his stamina dry from the innate effect of frost magic... It doesn't do much considering his ice affinity and inheritance from Auroth, so other than locking him in place he takes little to no damage.

[Despersion] also activates, reflecting a portion of the damage he would've taken had his resistances not blocked it. His skin and flesh around his arms turn purple with a shadowy aura momentarily as a tendril of the strange magic leaps at the dragon, striking it in the forehead as it smugly glours at him.

Aright, let's try that again.

*CRACK!*

He flexes his muscles and burst out from his icy prison, kicking off of the water from solid footholds he'd created with his [Vanntalfdir] runes. "Again!" his shout is distorted by the water as he uses sends yet another punch with [Wynningbaldr] this time.

*KRRAAK!*

The scales on its face splinter and flake away under the force of his strike, his runes only multiplying the damage dealt. Its head whips back with incredible force, crashing through the surface of the frozen lake and leaving its head slumped out of the water while it attempts to recover its senses.

While it was recovering from the mind-boggling punch, Michael finally draws Derflinger and dashes towards its unprotected stomach...

*PUCHHI!*

*SLIIIIIK!*

*ROOOOOAAAAAARRRR!!!*

Derflinger's blade easily bypasses the giant lizard's scales, thrusting deeply into its stomach as Michael pulls it horizontally, splaying its blood and guts out and dying the water red. The dragon thrashes around in agony, but isn't able to do anything as Michael slips his hand into the wound and stabs Derflinger straight up into its heart.

DRAGON SOUL GET!

Earlier :

After Michael is slammed under the frozen lake, the dragon turns its attention toward Saeko and Serana, "SOS AHRK DINOK! YOU WILL PERISH WITH YOUR COMPANION, MORTALS! YOL TOOR SHUL!"

"Behind me!" Saeko exclaims as she pushes past Serana, knowing well that vampires were very vulnerable to fire. "BHEI!" she shouts, slashing in front of her and halting the breath for a moment, she slashes against and splits it, allowing it to bypass the duo.

Once the fire was cleared they were greeted with the sight of the dragon diving toward them at great speeds. Serana steps forward this time, conjuring a spell with both hands before launching it and firing a huge spear of ice. It was far larger than its base spell entails, being almost as big as a small cart...

This forces the dragon to divert its flight to avoid it, slowing it down enough for Saeko to make a move. It swoops past and tries to swipe Serana with its wing, but Saeko pushes her out of the way and leaps upwards with Suekue, allowing her to grab ahold of the dragon's extended wing.
