Logan did not back down. With a lot of his blood now inside the monster's mouth and being swallowed, it was only a matter of ti before it would turn sluggish, having to fight not only Logan but also his taming ability.
Logan took this as a sign to hit it with his strongest abilities; he needed to set the beast straight and have it understand his position.
Starting with his strongest skills right off the bat, he went with Holy Nova in the form of a whip. He knew he had to get ready for this fight, and this was probably going to be the best chance to test it out. He did not want it in the form of a sword or lance that might kill the beast, but using a whip might put fear into the large tyrant.
It was hard to maintain its shape in this form, but he had practiced it for a few days. He had to keep not only Holy Nova up but also Elental Control. The whip lashed around, hitting the large beast in different parts of its body.
"Co on, attack if you dare!" Logan shouted, losing the fear as he saw the monster waver, each hit cutting off a piece of its scales with ease. The serpent coiled, looking for an angle from which to attack. anwhile, Logan kept lashing out, keeping his distance.
Seeing the beast not coming close, he made a feint and let the whip turn small, as if he had lost too much mana.
Seeing the weapon used to harm him was no longer as long, the serpent opened its large maw and went forward, not caring about being whipped but wanting to end the boy's life. Logan did not let this pass. He used wind to push himself back before the giant snake could bite into him.
"Co on, I know you're holding back, use your skills!" Logan shouted, turning his whip long, letting go of Holy Nova, and instead switching to Electromagnetic Pulse compacted into the whip.
The serpent, sensing danger from the crackling weapon, reeled back and produced crystals to send towards the boy from the water.
"See, I knew it." Logan used the ground to produce pillars of stone to protect him.
He knew he needed to end this soon and went with a large stone cannon to the creature. He wasn't going to keep on having mana if he did not do this much.
He readied as much power into a round stone that beca bigger before making the pillar before him be absorbed by the ball before sending it out in a surprise attack. The large stone was directed towards its large face, hitting it as it was charging the next volley of crystals.
"That one is for Kai!" Logan yelled out, happy that his blow landed. The beast almost fainted from that hit as it staggered to stay up. Logan was beginning to feel it; the connection between the two was forming. He needed one more push, sothing strong but not enough to kill it.
He went with another vampiric blood skill from Serana's arsenal. The beast was already showing a few cuts around its skin, so it was ti to use them so that his own blood could seep in.
Logan collected so of his blood and dark magic and created a few needles he needed to control. They were to enter the beast, which was still out of it. Logan walked forth with care and threw the blood in form of sharp needles at three different parts: the face, the neck where it had a large wound, and one of its fins, which was cut.
After doing so, he rushed back to find cover to control the blood from afar. It was tedious, but he felt with each drop of blood entering the beast's system, the ntal defense of the beast wavered.
Lisa and Alma were still taking cover, seeing the fight in front of them. They saw how Logan was slowly winning; he was behind a large pillar while the beast was growling out of its mind. They both looked tired and mana spent, but out of the two, the large serpent looked worse.
"Do you think we should help now?" Alma asked, feeling that they could tip the balance if they worked together.
"No… he's got this. If we interrupt… it would take from his achievent," Lisa said, feeling conflicted. She did prepare herself to cast healing at any ti if needed.
Logan, on the other hand, closed his eyes. He could feel his blood and the darkness spell in front of him drilling into the monster as it coiled and ramd the walls, breaking crystals and rocks.
"Co on!" Logan called out, trying not to lose hope or concentration.
It wasn't long before they were both interrupted by the sound of sothing entering the place with a crackle. Orus, along with nurous griffins and a few of Zephyr's eagles, entered.
Logan smiled as the beast wavered, feeling the strength of the incoming monsters. That was enough for the boy to strengthen his ntal power, which needed to hold on to the leviathan's defenses. It was slowly being tad; Logan felt it even if his mind wavered from ti to ti.
Kryst kept healing him, but she knew she couldn't heal his lost blood easily.
"It's fine, Kryst… I am almost done." Logan closed his eyes, feeling the power of the large beast. The experience points from taming such a large and ancient monster were beginning to strengthen Logan, giving him the euphoria of gaining more than enough levels, each one healing him and making him stronger.
"Weak child… why do you want to form a pact with ?" He heard the voice of an elder, a powerful voice that reverberated in his mind like that of a certain masked villain wearing a black helt who wielded a red plasma sword.
"Demons… they need to be stopped. We need power to defend ourselves," Logan used his ntal link to explain.
"For such a thing… you invade my palace… very well, I shall help. In return, you stop taking more than needed from my ho," it said, putting a clear condition.
"It's fine, I won't take without giving back." Logan stood up. As he got closer, he took a sip of the magic water, which was far stronger than what he had in his volcano. It quickly aided in helping him recover.
The monster, anwhile, looked towards Kryst, who had separated from him.
"Little one, so you left for this…" Logan heard the voice speaking towards Kryst.
"Want to help more… need to be stronger." Kryst said, wrapping her body over the large beast's wound to heal it.
"You did get stronger… I may have acted hastily. Not first of humans to enter with greed," it spoke to Logan, almost in an apology.
