Nieve, Acorn, and Johanna flew into the skies as fast as possible, aiming to target the bone dragon holding the hellish domain in place.
"We’re almost there!" said Nieve, gathering her magic powers as she drank her last Elixir to regain her health, stamina, and mana. "Dragon! Stop evading us! Fight us if you’re so arrogant!"
"Coward! Just fight us already! If it so easy to kill us, why are you taking so damn long?!" Johanna asked angrily.
"We’ll survive… and get out of here!" Acorn roared.
The skeleton dragon’s bone face transford, showing utter anger and wrath as he gritted his sharp fangs tightly together, his empty eye sockets glowing bright red and phantasmal blue.
"Y-You really get on my fucking nerves!" the skeleton dragon scread angrily. "Fine! I’ll bring you the death you desire so badly!"
However, instead of going down he simply conjured more of his magic, manipulating his domain to do sothing incredible.
RUMBLE!
Suddenly, all the bone beasts below rged together, rapidly turning into aberrant, massive monstrosities made of bone and rotten flesh, a mass of endlessly growing rotting parts that seed never-ending.
Nieve, Acorn, and Johanna panicked at the re sight, shocked by its grotesque form, the entity rapidly reached the skies and attempted to grab them.
"He made an Undead Chira even larger than the one before and so easily?!" Acorn asked. Continue your adventure at empire
"This is not good!" Johanna scread. "If it catches us, we’re finished!"
"But this proves it! He can’t move from his position!" Nieve said. "There’s no way he would take it so slowly against us which he stated hated us so much… for no reason at all!"
"No reason at all? NO REASON AT ALL?!" The dragon angrily scread. "There’s a BIG reason why I HATE you to death! And I’ll make sure you die! So stay quiet and accept your fate!"
"GROOOHHHH!"
The Giant Undead Chira’s massive claws reached the sky, clashing against Nieve’s aura and shattering it! Its force was so strong it imdiately overca Nieve’s freezing aura alone.
Crack, crack…!
CRAAASH!
As the barrier-shaped aura shattered into countless of pieces, the massive claws reached Nieve, who quickly tried to slash them away with her rapier.
"B-Begone!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
She constantly attacked the giant claw with her rapier, slicing through the mass of bones and flesh as they ca, only for more and more to continuously grow from where it was sliced.
"Hahaha! Be crushed, you punny bug!"
As the dragon laughed, Acorn gritted his teeth, rushing towards Nieve faster than he ever thought he could, infusing his own wings with lightning, and reaching her!
"NIEVEEE!"
He grabbed her with his huge hands and then, the claws reached him instead.
"Acorn?!"
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
"G-GUH…?!"
Nieve’s eyes widened as she looked up, noticing Acorn’s eyes widening in pain, the squirrel gritted his teeth as she saw blood coming from his mouth.
"Nieve… are you ok?"
"E-Eh?"
Nieve glanced into the giant squirrel’s body, noticing dozens of bony spurs piercing his stomach, ribs, and chest, blood and guts coming out from enormous holes.
"ACORN!!!"
Nieve scread in horror as he saw Acorn letting go of her while falling from the skies.
"Hahah… HAHAHAHAHA!"
The dragon laughed above the skies, as the giant squirrel fell from the skies into the mass of bones and flesh, they opened into a massive jaw, aiming to devour him while he was still clinging to life.
"One down."
CRUUUNCH!
Acorn’s entire body was torn to shreds, his pieces exploding into the skies and the floor, as Nieve and Johanna fell into silence, their eyes contemplating the utterly despairing scene.
And his laughter continued, completely delighted by their agony.
"Hahaha… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
Crack, crack…!
Yet, as everything was happening, the skies began to gain countless cracks.
CRASH!
Nieve, Johanna, and the dragon glanced into the skies, as a woman with long silver colored hair and scales erged.
Her eyes widened as tears fell from her eyes.
"No… I won’t let that happen."
While crying, her Draconic Heart started beating faster and faster, all the energy within it was spent into this single spell.
"{Ti Reversal}!!!"
"Eh?!"
TRUUUM!
Suddenly, everything beca gray, space and ti itself stopped for a split second, and then it began to go in reversal like a movie.
FLAAASH!
In front of everyone’s eyes, Acorn’s entire body rapidly reford as if he had never died, and everything went back to the mont he shielded Nieve.
"[Heavenly Pinnacle]!"
And then she appeared before the bony claws, swinging both Gram and the Replica of Excalibur at once, unleashing a massive, upward slash that resembled a ray from the heavens.
SLAAASH!
The slashing attack pierced through all the monstrosity, then reached its body below and completely consud it into an explosion of pure holy light.
BOOOM!
Crack, crack…!
And due to the enormous attack, the domain quickly ca undone, shattering into countless pieces and revealing the dragon sitting in the ground, glaring in disbelief at the scene.
"It’s you…! How… when… where did you get such power?!"
As he scread in frustration, he saw a huge heart-shaped pink beam reaching him from above, bombarding him and pushing him down into the ground.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"UUAAAGGGGHH!"
Florie flew towards her sister, Acorn and Johanna, at the sa ti as their savior.
"My liege!"
Nieve cried as she hugged Planta and Acorn at the sa ti, who had returned to his smaller, original form.
"I-I… I died… Lady Planta, I died…!"
Planta cried as well as she hugged them both.
"I’m so sorry for being so late! It’s okay now… Everything will be okay now…" Planta said, caressing their heads.
"Y-You really ca… but it has only been three… no, perhaps four seconds?" Johanna wondered.
"Seconds? Hardly!" Florie said. "Did he trick you into thinking that?! It has only been less than six minutes since you were encased there!"
"So the ti dilation wasn’t as extre?!" asked Nieve. "S-Still, it was so much anyways…!"
"I ca as quickly as possible, but even then, I was unable to save you from dying, Acorn," sighed Planta. "I reversed ti, but the experiences you lived… they remain. I’m sorry for failing you."
"N-No, you saved …" he sighed. "And there’s no ti for this Lady Planta, that monster… I think I know who he is!"
"RAAAHHHH!"
The dragon surged from the ground, rapidly growing larger and more monstrous, flesh and scales growing over his skeleton body, revealing a familiar appearance.
A pitch-black dragon!
"PLANTAAAA! ONCE AGAIN… ONCE AGAIN RUINING MY PLANS!"
Planta cleansed her tears as she nodded, facing the dragon as she walked towards him calmly, growing another pair of arms holding more weapons.
"You…"
"He’s Fafnir!"
Acorn’s voice echoed behind Planta, as she widened her eyes.
"So it’s you… I see. I just didn’t want to believe it. I was sure your soul was destroyed… But you… ca back anyways, huh?"
"Heh… Hehehehe… HEHEHAHAHAHA!" Fafnir laughed. "Yes! My master’s powers over Death, surpass what you can pitifully do to my soul! He managed to retrieve a few of its pieces, and made whole anew, and stronger than ever before!"
"You’re like a cockroach that simply never dies, hm?"
"You dare call a cockroach?!" Fafnir roared angrily. "I am the Evil Dragon King! And my powers… now surpass yours!!!"
RUMBLE!
As Fafnir scread, thousands of souls all around the battlefield gathered within his body, at the sa ti as tens of thousands of Undead.
As he absorbed them all, his body continued growing, and growing, and growing!
"I’LL CRUSH YOU LIKE A BUG!"
