"How did you get here? If the war is already over as you said, then the possibility of you getting thrown inside a space tear is low," Asked the goddess with a suspicious look on her face.
I frowned at her hostile tone, yet chose to ignore it instead. "I was experinting with teleportation, and next thing I know, I was here."
"T-Teleportation?" Hearing what I said, the goddess stuttered in disbelief.
This caused to sneer in disdain as I replied. "Yes, teleportation."
The goddess quickly regained her previous calm as answered. "What are you acting so haughty about, dragon? In the end, you still got stuck here."
Clicking my tongue in annoyance, I shook my head before speaking, "My na is not, dragon." I waited for a few seconds expecting her to ask for my na, though the goddess simply stood there staring at with a blank expression on her face.
'Heavens, why did I have to get stuck with soone like her?' I inwardly grumbled.
"My na is, Aether!" I proudly proclaid, with my head raised high.
The goddess simply stared at silently with her expressionless face. "Uh, aren't you going to tell what's your na?"
Letting out a sigh, the goddess replied. "I am Breta, daughter of Oaris Goddess of light, and Ultarr God of peace."
"Your father is a God of peace, and the first thing you do when eting soone, is hurl a spear at their face," I clicked my tongue in annoyance.
"Stay your tongue, dragon!" She growled as her spear suddenly appeared in her hands.
"I said, my na is Aether," I snarled, my water mana slowly surrounding my body creating a blue hue.
"And I have no problem in ripping you to shreds again,"
Faced with my threat, Breta frowned as her spear began to emit a bright blinding light. "My spear won't miss this ti. Don't test ,"
"Haven't you heard that it's not smart to anger a dragon?"
"Neither is it to threaten a deity."
Right before our confrontation could escalate any further, a loud cry made us both turn our attention towards the sky. The sudden appearance of a large bird-like monster made frown. The bird monster was on fire ... literally on fire.
Every flap of its wings dyed the sky red with flas. I was unable to make out its exact features. With the flas hindering my sight, the most I could see was its vague shape, that of an abnormally large bird.
The bird seed to have locked unto us as it leisurely made its way towards our mountain peak. Seeing that, a curse escaped from Breta's mouth as she glared at the newcor.
"Sneaky bastard."
"Hmm? You know that thing?" I asked, perplexed.
"That bastard cos here everyone and a while, trying to burn down my mountain," She explained, the spear in her hand grew larger as she wielded it in preparation.
"The damn beast runs off every ti I'm close to killing it," She added with a grumble.
"Hmm, I'll lock him into one place. You take him down," I said while glancing at the fiery bird with a loom of interest. The goddess studied my face for a few seconds before nodding.
"I only need one shot, just hold the bastard steady, I'll handle the rest."
"Yes, yes."
Closing my eyes, I hastily reached out to my mana. Water counters fire, so It should be fine. A water whip instantly materialized before and then shot forward towards the bird, like lightning. The beast had no ti to react as my water whip held it by the neck.
As my water mana and its fire mana collided, large amounts of steam rose. Followed by a loud cry of pain, as the bird trashed about in an attempt to break free. Yet my whip held him in place. A frown quickly made its way to my face. The beast's mana was stronger than expected, and it was only a matter of ti before it broke free.
Right as I was about to call out to the goddess. A sudden streak of light flashed by eyes and flew towards the bird flapping about in the air. Her spear struck true, completely blowing the poor beast's head apart. The monster had no chance to cry, as it fell from the sky towards the mountain range below, its body still burning.
The spear that delivered the final blow quickly flew back to the hand of its owner. There was no blood nor blemish on its blade. 'Fuck, that was cool,' I inwardly cursed as Breta softly muttered to herself.
"Die, you little shit."
"..."
"What? You got a problem?" She suddenly asked .
"I thought a goddess was supposed to be holier than thou. Not soone with a foul mouth like yours."
"I'm a goddess, not a nun. And I don't want to hear that from you." She replied, her face still eerily devoid of any emotions.
"Did anyone tell you, that you are creepy?"
Clicking her tongue, the goddess walked towards the edge and glanced downwards towards where the bird's corpse fell, all the while ignoring my remarks. I silently walked next to her and glimpsed at the mountain range below as well.
"Oh, it's still burning. Did It not die?" I asked in confusion.
"It did. But that's Phoenix, their flas never die out."
"A Phoenix?" I frowned at the sudden revelation. "Don't they like get reborn from their ashes and whatnot?"
Turning to stare at like I was an idiot, Breta replied, "Where did you hear that ridiculous notion?"
"What?"
"It's dead already, didn't you see blow its head apart?"
"Yeah, but that," I said as I motioned towards the still-burning body down below with my head before continuing, "That's suspicious."
"Heavens, why did you send a dumb dragon?" She muttered to herself in annoyance.
"I can hear you, you know. Damn shitty goddess."
Ignoring , Breta then proceeded to jump off the edge and into the mountain top below. With a sigh, I quickly followed behind her. The wind brushed against my scales made my heart montarily thump with excitent, as the feeling of weightlessness overtook . Right before reaching the ground, however, I opened my wings slowing down my descent and landing with a thud.
"Now, what use is this fiery thing?"
