章 185: The Strongest "Dragon"
"Just three mages aren't enough! Even if one of you is a dragon slayer!" Lahar shouted.
"And how are you supposed to help us? Any one of us could take on the entirety of your squadron." Jellal said. Lahar flinched at the comment and clenched his fists. He immediately turned around and faced his squadron and Arcadios.
"This is a direct order from the council! Save as many people as you can and get them far away from here!" Lahar began running towards his squadron but paused briefly as he turned his head to glance over at Meliodas. 'You haven't let me down before, so I'm counting on you this time as well.'
"Meliodas." Jellal said. "Can you create an opening from the three dragons in front of us? I'll use that to slip by and get to Future Rogue. I suspect he's the one controlling them."
Meliodas nodded his head.
"And I'll deal with that tasty looking one coming right at us!" Natsu said with an excited grin as he ran towards Atlas Flame. "I'm all fired up!"
High above the city, Future Rogue stood atop Motherglare's head, looking down at the three mages. "You think I'll just let you all escape from here?! Motherglare! Release your eggs!"
Holes began to open in Motherglare's abdomen as hundreds of human sized eggs rained down from the skies.
"Jellal, can you deal with those?" Meliodas raised his arms up over his head, concentrating a huge mass of darkness above him. Meliodas threw the large mass at the three dragons, engulfing their bodies completely.
"W-what the hell is this?!" Zirconis questioned as he felt a massive force exerted on top of his body, pushing him down and rendering him unable to move.
"This isn't magic…what is that human?!" Scissor Runner questioned.
"Have your senses dulled Scissor Runner?" Levia responded. "The nature of his magic and his scent…he's no human at all!"
"Meteor!" Jellal crouched on the ground as his body was engulfed in a bright light. With blinding speed, he dashed past the dragons and flew right up into the air towards the eggs, shattering them midair as he dashed back and forth between them.
"I won't let a single egg touch the ground!"
"That speed?!" Future Rogue questioned. 'He might actually be able to destroy them all…'
Future Rogue looked down at the city below. Atlas Flame was attempting to shake off Natsu as Meliodas held down three of the dragons with his darkness. 'Meliodas…you may be able to overpower three dragons, but you can't defend yourself now!'
"Motherglare! Use your roar on Meliodas!" Future Rogue ordered. Motherglare took a deep breath in as a large amount of magic began to gather in his mouth. Meliodas looked up in the sky as he sensed the huge concentration of magic.
"Jellal get out of there!" Meliodas shouted as he released his hold over the three dragons and put his hand on the handle of Neo Mel Force. Jellal nodded and flew off to the side and out of the path of fire. In that next moment, a huge mass of magical power flew right past him and down to the ground towards Meliodas.
"Full Counter!"
Meliodas swung his sword, bouncing the large blast back at Motherglare. Motherglare quickly folded its wings over its body and put its arms up, shielding itself as it became engulfed by its own attack. As a massive explosion lit up the night sky, Meliodas felt a looming presence right over him.
Zirconis slashed with his claw right at Meliodas. At that moment, the dragon felt a sharp pain under his chin as he was launched up into the air, falling flat on his back.
"Gghhh!" Zirconis grunted as he hit the ground. 'I felt that punch through my scales?!'
Before Meliodas landed on the ground, he noticed Scissor Runner charging straight at him with the horns on his head. Wings of darkness sprouted from Meliodas' back as he grabbed Scissor Runner by his two protruding horns, halting the dragon in place.
Behind him, Meliodas could tell Levia was charging straight towards him. Meliodas gripped Scissor Runner's horns firmly and heaved as he twisted his body, throwing the massive dragon towards Levia. Scissor Runner crashed right into Levia, knocking the two of them down and flattening the buildings, leaving a massive crater in the city.
The two dragons quickly recovered and raised their heads and saw Meliodas walking towards them with his blade in hand. Meliodas raised Neo Mel Force up above him, pointing it at the sky. 'Looks like my help is here.'
"Enchant: Hellblaze!" Meliodas said, his sword becoming clad in black flames. A grin formed on his face as he felt another presence coming from behind him.
"Meliodas! I'm enchanting you with dragon slayer magic!" Wendy called out.
"That child is an enchantress?!" Scissor Runner exclaimed.
Meliodas dashed forward towards the dragons, vanishing the moment he was within striking distance and reappearing behind them.
"Divine Slayer: Dragon Eater!"
The two dragons' eyes widened as they felt sharp pain all over their bodies. Their tough scales cut straight through as blood gushed from dozens of spots on their bodies.
"I-Impossible…" Levia gasped as a massive pool of blood was forming under him. He soon fell down to the ground, his eyes empty. Immediately after, Scissor Runner did the same.
"Oh ho? So this pipsqueak human is an enchantress? How tasty!" Zirconis commented as he approached Wendy. Wendy's eyes widened and she took a step back. Zirconis reached forward with his claw towards Wendy.
"Now then I'll just have to-" Zirconis immediately froze as he felt a deep pain in the middle of his claw. His eyes widened as he saw a small hole in the center of it and blood coming out of it.
[Trillion Dark]
Before Zirconis could react, he felt pain all over his body. Thousands of tiny holes were pelted throughout his body and head as an innumerable amount of tiny condensed balls of darkness pierced through his body. The remains of the jade colored dragon fell to the ground with a loud crash.
"T-that was too close." Wendy gasped as she looked at Meliodas with a wide eyed expression. 'His magic…is so different and dark…is this really Meliodas?'
Meliodas walked towards the astonished Wendy and patted her on the head. He gave her a warm smile as she looked into his pitch black eyes. Despite his eyes at first glance having seemed cruel and lifeless, she could feel the kindness in his expression and gesture.
"Why don't we go and check on Jellal." Meliodas looked towards the far distance in the sky where clouds were forming. In the center of the clouds, a hole was forming followed by a bright light.
"W-what is that thing?!" Wendy exclaimed.
