Chapter 427
427 – Triple-Layered Dragonfire
The flas produced from the three dragon heads tear apart the ground, floor, and ceiling, as they rage towards . I try to spread my wings, but with the black light of [Gravity] pressing my body down, I can’t raise them. I gulp. This is bad. The situation really has beco desperate all of a sudden. Crawling to avoid them is impossible.
Three [Dragoflares] at once is seriously abnormal. I rember Azalea’s and Eldia’s [Dragoflares]. Each of their shots had enough power to potentially be fatal to , despite my masses of health an an ouroboros.
“GaaaAAAh!”
『Partner! Those are no joke!』
Even my always-confident partner is bewildered at it. That’s only natural. Compared to any enemy we’ve fought so far, it’s too far outside the norm. It’s absolutely a cheat.
How am I ant to defeat sothing like that?! No, if anything I now know understand why the Saint’s been hiding all this ti. She’s got to prepare carefully to deal with that, right? She’s going to show up to help , right? Is it okay if I place my expectations in that?
I look around, but all I can tell is that she’s not about to step in to help right now.
I twist my wings in front of my body, and turn so that my tail points forwards.
From far above, intersecting beams of overwhelming heat strike .
“Die, IrushiaAAAaaAAaah!”
The flas blast my tail. The impact is far more powerful than the force of the [Gravity], and my body is flung forwards outside the range of the ultra-gravity. My body burns. I feel the unsettling sensation of my body being burnt and disintegrating away under the flas. But, I’ve avoided a lethal wound.
I curl up my body in the air and begin to roll in the opposite direction. The three gods of death chase with thunderous roars.
This is totally a cheat! I don’t know what this impact resistant underground tal chamber is made of, but it’ll collapse right away! No, that might be what the Demon Lord’s hoping for. With that sli body, they could slip through the gaps in the rubble to finish off, or escape easily themselves.
“Ahahahahahahahahaa! Watch, watch God-sama! See, aren’t I the strongest! I’m far stronger than that tiny dragon! How is it, Irushia? Ever since that day! I have always, always wanted to do this!”
The beams of fla, each of them deadly by themselves, veer slightly from their trajectory. Probably, the skill level isn’t very high, so the accuracy is low. But the three at once is far too threatening. The gaps caused by the lack of accuracy are made up for by their size and number, and they accurately drive towards the wall.
“Die for , Irushiaaa!”
I’m in an position where I can’t dodge. I’m being pressed against the wall, and all 180 degrees behind are covered by the flas. It’s no use. No matter how I struggle, I can’t avoid them.
I can’t let it end here. If I died, who knows how many would be left in this world that could stand a chance at defeating the Demon Lord. Even as an upper estimate there can’t be more than five exceptions like Dragon King Eldia… In the worst cast, there’s be no more than Saint Lilixira, Magic Beast King Beelzebub, and Dragon King Eldia. Lilixira defeating the Demon Lord alone is impossible, Beelzebub is uncontrollable, and Eldia is more likely than not to side with them.
If I die, it’s almost certain that that sli will consu the world. Once I lose, Aro, the nightmare and the treant would probably challenge the Demon Lord to a lost battle. To put it bluntly, even if those three joined together and used all their ingenuity and resourcefulness, the Demon Lord’s not an opponent that they could defeat. The Demon Lord is completely out of their league.
Suddenly, an idea crosses my mind. If I’m thinking that avoiding it is impossible, then the enemy might be thinking that too. Possibly, that could give a chance.
There’s a chance the outco could be different from what I expect. For example, if the Demon Lord thinks I’m being cornered, they might slacken their pursuit with the [Dragoflares].
Betting everything on that possibility, I head straight for the wall. Smiling scornfully towards , confident of their victory, the Demon Lord reduces the speed of the [Dragoflares]. No, that’s not right. They might be splitting them up, so that when I bounce off the wall there’s no chance I could escape from their range. It’s a cunning plan, but in another aning by expanding the range, the speed has slowed down, creating the possibility of my escape. At the very least, it has backfired this ti. The one who won the bet is .
“Aha, see God-sama, I can kill Irushia so easily!”
Crashing into the wall, I continue to [Roll] along it. I roll straight to the end of the wall, escaping from the scattered [Dragoflares]. Had they not slowed down, they would have burnt the mont I touched the wall.
But, as expected, using the montum of my [Roll] to forcefully go along the wall soon reaches a limit. My balance collapses. At almost the sa ti, the sound of the [Dragoflares] fade. I kick off the wall and land on the ground. The scales and tip of my tail are burnt off. I activate [Autoregeneration] to regrow the scales.
I look up. The human head in the middle of the three dragon heads looks down at expressionlessly.
“…I missed… But I’ll kill him soon, God-sama. So please watch closely.”
The three dragon heads roar ragefully. I glare back at the sli in the air.
I was delayed by the sudden attack, but I’ll take a look at their status now. First is the species information.
【[Chaos Ooze]: A rank monster】
【A monster that imitated all things. It beca able to imitate all powers.】
【It beca able to do anything, and beco anyone.】
【But still, it could do nothing but destroy.】
【Noone knows what it was that monster wanted to beco.】
[Chaos Ooze]… I vaguely rember hearing that in the legends of so country or other, the na of a faceless emperor was Chaos,[1] so as a fake queen and a faceless Demon Lord, it might be an appropriate na.
【The King of Slis, bestowed the na of Chaos.】
【The mutant species arrived at by a sli able to take in anything, or the shadow of what that sli once was.】
【Parts of up to four monsters can be recreated, and up to four skills that can’t normally be activated at the sa ti can be used simultaneously.】
【Each monster consud increases the power of the [Chaos Ooze].】
Four at once… When you combine [Dragoflares] from the three dragon heads with the [Gravity] from the human part, it adds up.
