Episode 51.6
Sixth day of dungeon expedition. 13th of month two.
The Rocky Mountain's summit was within sight.
"Uwaa, look at that, Lecan! The scenery is so amazing. You can see everything we passed through so far. This must be what they an by picturesque. But really, it's soo spacious. This dungeon is unbelievably vast, isn't it."
Eda turned around as she got all excited.
However, Lecan cannot afford to turn around here.
He's glaring hard at the top of the mountain.
No.
He's looking at the thing beyond the mountain top.
It's still outside range so its form is unknown but depicts an overwhelming presence.
Realizing Lecan's state, Eda readied her and glared at the mountain top.
Then a gigantic head of a magic beast popped up from behind the mountain top.
"Eh?"
Eda sounded perplexed.
Then the shoulders ca up, chest and then abdon.
"H-hold on. Lecan? That's..."
Eventually, the behemoth showed up in its entirety atop the mountain.
It's still 200 step away from them.
Yet it's as if the entire thing is already right beside them.
"T-that's the Great Fla Dragon."
Its height exceeds ten steps. Five tis Lecan's. Its upper half is gigantic by itself, but its mass concentrates on the lower half, its legs are thicker than any giant trees.
THUD, THUD, the behemoth drew near leaving heavy thumping sounds with every step.
It stopped moving.
Glare, its giant pair of eyes scowl at Lecan.
Lecan broke into run toward the behemoth.
Followed by Eda a bit later.
Lecan changed course to the right.
Eda to the left.
Lecan ran up a slope and once he got to a point slightly higher than the behemoth, he charged at it. Eda also ran toward the behemoth from the opposite side.
Once they got to around 100 steps close, the Great Fla Dragon inflated its chest hugely before spewing out a white breath.
The breath shot out toward Lecan at trendous speed.
Lecan dodged to the left.
But the white breath also changed its course following Lecan.
's barrier blazed up. Lecan reflexively covered his face with his left arm. His view has been completely obstructed. By this enormous attack both in size and power.
What's surprising is how the Great Fla Dragon kept spewing its breath without pausing and even spun around to shot it at Eda.
Even Eda whose nimbleness wouldn't fall behind Lecan had no way to dodge this attack.
She relied on and crouched to minimize surface area of damage.
Grounds and rocks hit by the white breath burned and lted down.
(A breath that lts even rocks huh.)
(And it can keep shooting it for an extended period.)
(That's so unbelievable firepower.)
The Great Fla Dragon who spun clockwise while shooting its breath kept spinning round and round.
Its massive tail made its appearance. It's more like an extension of its body than an attachnt at its base. That's just how thick it is. And it spans for quite a length, getting smaller toward the tip. There must be around ten steps from base to tip.
The dragon swung this tail while roaring terrifyingly. Everything it touches gets blown away, be it rocks or boulders.
Lecan greatly leaped backward.
"!"
He deployed during the leap.
Amidst all the flying rocks, the tail tip passed through right before Lecan's eyes.
Big and small rocks assaulted Lecan afterward.
blocked the rocks, but not the countless pebbles. He could only endure the barrage.
Lecan grabbed from and plunged at the still spinning tail-mowing Great Fla Dragon.
He slashed at its right leg. Not just once. Two, three, four, five, he kept on slashing. The Grace was extrely effective, it cut through the gigantic Great Fla Dragon's right leg easily. However, it doesn't cut that deep. And Great Fla Dragon is overtly big, with overtly thick legs.
(This'll take forever.)
Lecan kept slashing as he went around to the right.
Great Fla Dragon spun to the left, going after Lecan.
As he went around the dragon's huge body, Lecan put away the , took and put all his mana into it.
An extra large magic blade erged. The maximum length he rarely ever deployed. It's more than two steps long. Enough to exceed the Great Fla Dragon's leg thickness.
Lecan lunged at the dragon's leg and drove onto the right leg.
"What?"
phased through Great Fla Dragon's right leg.
Lecan leaped back in a fluster and went around to the right of the dragon ocne again.
After a slight pause, the dragon roared in anger.
(Looks like it did hurt this thing.)
(Yet the blade didn't cut through.)
(What's going on?
He plunged once again and swung the at the dragon's right leg.
But it didn't cut it.
(Uh.)
(Not good.)
(Used up too much mana.)
Manifesting the maximum length consus a huge amount of mana. Maintaining that demands a similarly huge amount.
Lecan erased the magic blade and put away.
The Great Fla Dragon roared, stopped moving, inflated its chest while inhaling greatly and started converging its mana.
It's trying to shoot its infernal breath.
Eda had retreated outside the tail's range, shooting her magic bow all the while. Her attacks produced small explosions around the Great Fla Dragon's head and face, but it didn't seem to have dealt any damage. These arrows likely will never go through the hide no matter how many she shoots.
"Eda! Get over here!"
Lecan took a 30 step distance from the Great Fla Dragon. He drank Magenta Potion, and signaled the running Eda to hide behind him.
The Great Fla Dragon unleashed its incandescent breath.
"!"
Lecan put his left hand gripping the shield forward while reciting the spell.
The rushing incandescent breath got reflected by the right away. The reflected breath squarely hit the Great Fla Dragon yet the breath wouldn't stop. An overload of light and heat stripped their vision. As Lecan kept making small adjustnt to the shield's direction to reflect the unending breath attack, he plunged his right hand into the hidden pocket in his leather armor, gripped and poured his the maximum amount of mana into it.
The breath eventually stopped.
Looking at it, the right half of the Great Fla Dragon has been burned and shaved down from the reflected breath. Its right shoulder has been gouged off too, its small--relative to its body size--right foreleg is also gone from the elbow down.
The leftover left eye glared hard at Lecan before it marched forward with its huge body.
"!"
Lecan turned his shield back to gauntlet form, took out, and gripped it with both its hand before he too rushed ahead.
The Great Fla Dragon crouched down and opened its mouth greatly.
Its upper and lower jaws looked like the full rows of hundreds of swords.
Its gigantic face skimd the ground as it went for Lecan.
Making use of his running start montum, Lecan lifted overhead and swung it down the Great Fla Dragon's cranium. A single strike loaded with the maximum power boost effect of .
He could feel the sensation of crushing a wine barrel.
Lecan got blown away. He spun in the air and stuck his landing.
Great Fla Dragon tumbled down, sending rocks flying everywhere before it eventually stopped moving.
