Chapter 286 - A Brutal Dragon Fight!
"Be careful to not overuse the strong attacks of us, as the map star won\'t handle this pressure well," Sara warned them again when they were so close to the clustering monsters.
They looked like they were going to station themselves in the last stand, and Arthur planned for it to be so!
"So I can only use my claws?" Tina said in complain but Arthur had another opinion as he said:
"Just close over one, and send a direct hit towards it, then jump to another and so on."
"That\'s much better,are they up front?"
"Just fly directly and you will reach the constellation they are standing above."
"Great," she said before waving her wings directly heading towards the direction Arthur pointed towards. As she moved, Sara glanced at him as he said:
"If this was the way to crush this star map, then why didn\'t they use it up till now?" he simply said that before taking out a weapon he long didn\'t use; that bloodthirst sword.
And the moment it came out, it hummed, showing its discontent to be left out for such a long time.
"Don\'t complain buddie, I kept you for such a grand feast, look up ahead!" Arthur just smiled before holding it in his claw, feeling slightly off by the small size of this sword. "If only you were bigger, sigh!"
"Buzz!"
The next moment the sword got broader, longer, and heavier. Strangely it swelled up like it was a sponge absorbing water; not fragile but showing much power than before. "Oh, you can do that?" Arthur muttered in surprise before laughing a roaring laugh, "sure, you are such a nasty sword. Let\'s go my old friend."
Arthur was moving steadily towards the large group of monsters that kept getting larger. Tina had already reached there, and the fight proved to be much harder than she expected, making her very satisfied!
After taking out the sword, a dragon was launched out like an arrow, heading towards the monsters; holding a large intimidating sword in a claw, waving it right and left.
One hit, and the monster attacked would be sucked dry out of blood; turning eventually into a pile of ash!
Monster after monster turned into ash, while they started attacking to defend their protected circle of stars. Arthur started to feel pain, but he didn\'t stop his steps even once; always pushing forward.
One star, two stars, five stars were liberated of the handle of the monsters, but he kept pushing forward. When the trio were pushing the monsters and more stars started to be liberated, Arthur just flew backward, suddenly throwing his sword to the front, like a death scythe it moved claiming the lives of any monster it met.
And during this, a bow and a bunch of arrows appeared, and the mighty big dragon vanished; popped up like a soap bubble showing the true human behind it.
And Arthur just grabbed the bow, put the arrows one after another, pulled the string as hard as he could before sending the arrows inside the stars he just flew above.
Each star got around dozens of his extermination arrows, and that sneaky attack was met by angry roars by the monsters.
"Watch out!" Tina shouted when some monsters left the plan of defending the fort and ventured like mad dogs towards Arthur. Arthur was still in midair, but the next moment he channeled his energy, transformed again into the dragon, to embrace the incoming attacks with one simple sentence…
"Come back, babe!"
The bow and arrow just vanished, as they were taken back.
"Buzz!"
It wasn\'t a roaring hum of the sword but its appearance alone was enough to cause fear in the hearts of those watching it.
No matter who, the target would be drained out of blood once touched by such a blood hungry sword. The sword was kept for such a long time inside Arthur\'s ring, and all this time it grew restless, angry, and very impatient.
And now it was it\'s time to shine, especially when the meal contained such a high grade of blood.
When it was called upon by his master, it complied, flew backwards, hitting many monsters in the process, killing more before finally falling in the claws of Arthur again.
"Come you worthless worms," he evilly smirked in the face of such an evil clan. He didn\'t hesitate or wait for them to come over his direction, as he went directly towards them.
They were angry, and he was impatient, so both sides hit each other and a strong suicidal fight erupted where he fought with over fifty monsters while he alone stood in the air.
He endured all the wounds they inflicted at him; they were attacking without any care or reservation. Like monsters at their last dying breaths, their last stance, last charge, last bite; they caused severe deep wounds over Arthur\'s body.
But Arthur wasn\'t doing anything as he kept waving his sword, with each wave he killed one or two of these monsters. The fight end result was obvious, but the cost Arthur had to pay was greater than what he expected.
"Those nasty monsters could go berserk when they wanted to be!" he gulped for breath when he finally dried the last one up. "I shouldn\'t enter such suicidal encounters with them so soon," he laughed at his messy state before glancing at the front.
The sudden venture of these fifty something monsters created gaps along the fortified clustering of the monsters. They were trying to amend these, while making Tina and Sara busy.
"You forgot me, ain\'t you?" he laughed out loud before throwing his sword again towards the front, targeting a gap that directly created a path to the heart of this group; that was where he selected to aim; that was his target.
The sword moved, cleaving all monsters in its path, making the gap look more void, ready to welcome Arthur.
And he just ignored any other monster that tried to jump at him, leaving the fight with Tina and Sara, in a try to stop him.
"Come back!"
