Chapter 550: Crimson Dragon Spell [2]
550 Crimson Dragon Spell [2]
Aaron looked in the distant sky where a beautiful woman in a pink dress was single-handedly fighting against three king ranked demons.
Watching this scene, his blood boiled, and his aura flared. For a moment, it seemed he would fly into the sky and join the battle, but in the next moment, his aura vanished and his shoulders slumped. Sighing, he said, "I want to, but she won't let help her. I can insist, but..." He shuddered and shook his head, "...I don't want to get beaten and end up in bed."
Everyone behind him chuckled upon hearing this.
"You really do fear, senior sister. Senior brother, is it really true she beat you up when you guys joined the Fire valley?" A cute young lady asked.
Aaron glared at her, making her lower her head and laugh silently.
Seeing this, he sighed inwardly, 'Just in a few months, I changed a lot.'
It was true. He really changed a lot. He wasn't arrogant and self-centered like before. If it was before, he would've attacked her for laughing at his expanse.
'I was really a horrible person before, huh?' He smiled bitterly upon remembering how everyone used to maintain a distance from him. Even his family members stayed away from him as if there wasn't anything important. Now, however, he had many friends and followers who he can talk freely and laugh with.
'It's all thanks to her, Crimson Monarch, and that guy... Max. I wonder how strong he has grown after receiving Crimson Monarch's legacy.'
Boom!
A loud explosion in the sky brought him out of his thoughts.
He looked up and saw Margaret Adler had forced the demon trio back. She then raised her dainty right hand up.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Immediately, a large amount of fire elemental Mana started gathering above her. The demon trio's expressions turned heavy. They could feel the spell she was going to cast was several times more powerful than the spells she used before and it could threaten their lives. They exchanged quick glances and rushed toward her, wanting to interrupt her spell casting. Margaret, however, gently raised her left hand in front of her. Her hand glowed before crimson red fire started burning on it. When the demons were about to reach her, three fire spears shot out of the glowed toward them at lightening fast speed.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The demons clenched their fist and covered them with their demonic energy before punching at the incoming spears.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The spear exploded one after another. Although they didn't harm them, they pushed them back a few meters. Just as they were about to charge at her again, more fire spears shot toward them. The demons looked up and noticed the fire elemental mana had stopped gathering and was now taking the shape of a giant python like creature which emitted a deathly aura.
Seeing this, they stopped trying to charge forward. One of the three stood in front of them and started destroying the fire spears, while the other two started casting their spells. Hundreds of balls of black energy appeared in front of them, which then shot toward Margeret at an incredible speed.
Margaret wore the same indifferent expression which she had until now. She eyed the black balls and an equal number of fire spears shot from the glow in her left hand, aiming to destroy the balls.
The demons smirked when they saw this.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the balls and fire spears collided, the fire spears got destroyed. Although the black balls became slow and smaller, they continued shooting toward Margeret and split second later; they were in front of her.
Margeret, however, didn't even flinch. Right as the balls were about to smash into her, a thin layer of crimson energy covered her.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
Aaron and the group watched the battle without blinking. When the black balls smashed into her and exploded one after another, engulfing her figure, everyone except Aaron stopped breathing.
The young lady who previously asked if Margeret had beaten him or not, looked at him and worriedly said, "Senior brother, shouldn't you go and help her now? Those demons are bullying senior sister with numbers."
Aaron shook his head and smiled wryly. "How are they bullying her? Look closely, it's senior sister who is bullying them."
"Yeah, junior sister. Look, their attacks couldn't even scratch senior sister's energy barrier." A man in his mid-twenties pointed at the sky.
The young lady looked up. As the energy and smoke from the explosions dispersed, Margaret, surrounded by the layer of crimson energy, appeared in her vision. Seeing Margaret was unharmed, she sighed in relief. Then she noticed the mass of fire elemental energy had almost finished transforming. It transformed into a ten feet long serpentine creature. Countless scales covered its whole body. It had two large wings, although transparent, and two fiery eyes. Also, it had an intimidating presence that sent chills down everyone's spines.
However, the most eye-catching thing about it was the fact it looked... alive. Yes, rather than a lifeless mana form, it looked like a living being.
"This... senior brother, is this the senior sister's famed Crimson Dragon spell?" The young lady asked.
Aaron's eyes flashed with a hint of envy as he looked at the Draconic creature floating above Margaret and nodded. "Yeah. This is it."
Everyone looked at the dragon with glittering eyes. The young lady opened her mouth again, wanting to say something, but just then, the Margaret lowered her right hand and pointed at the demons. "Go."
Whoosh!
...
The demon trio's smirks disappeared when their attacks couldn't harm Margaret even a little, let alone force her to stop her spell casting.
Just as they were about to cast another spell, an intense feeling of dread washed over them, which made their hearts shudder.
"Fuck! A monarch rank spell..." One of them shouted out.
Hearing this, the other two followed his gaze and when they saw the lifelike creature floating above the frustrating human lady, their pupils constricted in fear.
"RUN!" both of them shouted at the same time. Turning around, they fled in different directions while praying, 'Please don't target me.'
Margaret raised her delicate brows when she saw this. She then targeted the demon, who was farthest from her, and pointed her hand at him. "Go."
Whoosh!
The demon's speed was no joke. Within these short few moments, he had fled over 200 meters. However, the moment Margaret said 'Go', the dragon caught up to him and slammed into him.
BOOM!!!
The dragon exploded into a giant mass of crimson fire, creating a deafening booming sound, and fire engulfed the demon.
When the explosion settled, and the flames vanished, there was no sign of the demon. He was completely wiped out.
The other two demons who had escaped far by now couldn't help but shudder. They also felt lucky that Margaret didn't target them. After casting a last glance at her, they vanished into the distance.
As Margaret saw them disappear, she looked disappointed and muttered, "I need to figure out a way to lower my casting time. I can't let them run away like this each time."
