Chapter 413: The Other Side Of The Battlefield
After the miserable defeat of the three last sect members of the dark shadow sect, Pekora, Tisha, and Benladann's parents gathered together and quickly moved through the forest, going back to the walls of the sect... meanwhile, another battle in the other side of the sect was still going on, and they all tried to move there than wait patiently...
This battle had the other stronger Elders and also the Sect Master, due to this it should be an easier battle, even more as Drake, Benladann, and Miranda are there fighting relentlessly! However, things were getting heated up...
The shadow beasts were mostly fodder at this point, the might of the Elders and the Sect Master pushed them back easily and constantly whipped them out of their sight, only for more to come from the forest, they were not being produced, but there was something like squadrons or reserves behind them which moved after a certain number of soldiers was killed.
Drake, Benladann, and Miranda continued to fight against the shadow beasts, putting their power into the fight with all they had, the trio continued to push forward while the Elders behind them supported them. The Lady Winter Lotus glanced at Drake and her wife's performance with surprise, the power they were putting in was surprising. She was growing more intrigued about who they truly were at each passing second, but it was impossible to ask in the middle of the battle as everyone was fighting for their own goals as of now, which were shared, and were about slaying the enemy in front of them anyways.
Drake unleashed powerful spiraling vortexes of slicing winds, utilizing the power of his wind attribute to its fullest, while merging it with his cold Winter Magic and generating an aura of wind and ice that enhanced the power and damage dealt of his magic and also his defenses against these two elements! The power of such magic was incredible, and he pushed it forward with ease, the shadow beasts in front of him were all turning into shadow mass as they died one by one.
Drake's thoughts flashed with many things, although he was mostly wondering about this Lady Lotus Winter or whatever she was called, which seemed to exude a strong presence. She also had like five spirits and a dragon! something he had never seen before until now. He felt excited to greet and talk to this new dragon, as he was a dragon himself, but before that were to happen, he had to get rid of the enemy in front of him.
Benladann was also using her powerful Chaos Magic for the task, mostly abusing her giant axe, and coating it with the deadly power of chaos! This chaos rotated around her weapon and enhanced its damage to new and completely insane levels. Each of her blows unleashed a shockwave of dark chaos that consumed her targets easily, and her power was enhanced furthermore by fusing with Mold partially (without it being visible) through her Mold Legion Ability, enhancing her stats even more... this was one of Benladann's greatest cheats after all!
Miranda was weaker than the two, but she made up for it with her versatility in battle, she was able to shapeshift to her heart's content as if she were a slime, if not even better. She moved around taking the shape of a deadly black wyvern, a roaring bear, or a fierce alligator, biting, slashing, and crushing things before her sight. Drake couldn't help but think of her as Beast Boy from DC Comics based in how much she was constantly turning into other beasts to fight... However, Miranda added the dreadful power of mold into the mix, her very presence sent chills to the enemies and even new allies from this new sect, who looked at this pale human-shaped girl turn into all sorts of beasts without issues, only wondering what kind of magic could do that even...
Drake checked the battlefield after slaying enough beasts, sensing the presence of enemies diminishing greatly, he finally began to think that things were turning for the better.
"We are pushing forward pretty well! In a few more minutes we should be able to completely wipe out this entire place- Huh?!"
However, three massive snakes emerged from the woods, being mounted by three bold dark shadow sect members, the Lady Winter Lotus looked at the scene as she was shocked, they had finally showed themselves! She was only able to see them and share her sight with the elders through her Clairvoyance Skill! Now that they had showed up everyone could clearly see these beasts!
"You... Be careful against those monsters! They wield the power of shadows and have the bloodline of Jormungandr! That bloodline has amazing potential and even more incredible power!" she said.
"Wait, what?! Jormungandr?! Are you for real? You're saying the truth, right?" asked Drake in disbelief.
"Erm, naturally! I am telling the truth, yes! (Why is he so excited over such a thing?!)" said the lady winter lotus, as Drake suddenly licked his lips. He was a gluttonous and greedy dragon deep down, imagining tasting those delicious Rank 4 Mana Cores excited him! he was already seeing his cultivation raise a bit more! And the meat of a legendary beast descendant would also be wonderful! But also, deep down, there was an increasing rivalry growing inside his heart against these snakes, as if they were made to be his enemies!
"I cannot move from here but... My Lunar Dragon can aid you! Go!" Lady Winter Lotus said, as her Lunar Dragon flew into the battlefield, reaching Drake's place and roaring loudly, its entire body emanated a glorious golden glint as moonlight showered its body constantly... this beautiful creature was a dragon like Drake had never seen before, ever! It looked like a majestic Eastern Dragon too!
"Amazing..." he muttered.
"Your soul... and scent... you're a fellow dragon, aren't you? You've mastered shapeshifting amazingly well. I almost couldn't tell..." whispered the dragon. It shocked Drake! It could talk through telepathy...
