Chapter 145
The divine power that leaked from Philina’s hand rode up the sword as it was. A solid blade flashed with a transparent light.
Soon after, a huge force burst out of the dragon’s mouth.
Philina’s blade cut through the light and reached the dragon’s front.
She trampled on the dragon’s legs and slammed her sword down his body.
However, Li’s scales were like hard stones, and the blade did not enter easily.
The dragon moved violently.
Filina let out an expletive and grabbed him by the neck, but his increasingly wild gestures eventually caused him to fall to the floor.
“Ugh.”
There was a tremendous rush of pain. At the same time, a dark shadow fell overhead.
Philina turned her head and saw the dragon’s sharp claws rapidly approaching her.
“Philina!”
Huey snatched her up in an instant, took her in his arms, and rolled over to the side. The dragon’s claws barely dodged it.
But Lee didn’t stop there, swinging his giant claws at Filina and Huey again.
Huey held Filina in his arms and performed a defensive spell. A transparent protective shield formed around his body.
The magic didn’t work, but she was surrounded by Huey’s body and naturally received the effects of the magic he used indirectly.
The dragon’s claws tried to break the transparent membrane that Huey had unfolded. It began to crack finely, like a spider’s web spreading around the area where the toenails were located.
Filina tried to force Huey’s large body on top of her. Then he said, his expression contorted.
“I won’t, Philina. I’ll just fight him.”
As Huey tried to pull himself up, Philina squealed in annoyance as she grabbed him by the collar.
“I told you I would. You’re the last. Help me when I think I can’t fight.”
Philina stood up and swung her sword at the dragon quickly. The back of Li’s foot, struck by her blade, fell back.
The angry cry of the dragon spread.
Filina lunged at Lee once more, climbing up on her rigid body and slamming the dragon’s neck.
Li yelled in agony, moving his head from side to side.
Clutching the dragon’s body stubbornly, she pulled out the blade and thrust her sword into his throat again.
The dragon roared.
The tremendous sound made my ears tear up.
Eventually, Pilina fell from the dragon’s body and slid to the floor. I covered his ears with my hand, but I couldn’t mask all his cries.
The dragon spread its wings and soared high into the sky. Filina, who glared at him fiercely, gritted her teeth.
What should I do…….
What the hell can you do to kill a dragon?
It was too much for him to deal with. He was strong enough to be ignorant.
He could feel Huey fidgeting and staring at him. He seemed torn about whether or not he should help me.
Perhaps he was troubled by the fact that Philina had said that he was going to kill Lee himself.
She glared at the dragon that rushed at her with a piercing gaze.
With a tremendous wind, the enormous body swung menacingly. Philina stood up with a sword that had fallen to the floor, and slashed the blade diagonally and strongly.
The sacred beam of light she created attacked the dragon. There was a huge explosion.
But he broke through the white smoke and hit straight in front of Filina. She held out her sword and managed to block the dragon’s sharp teeth.
Right in front of him, he met with silver eyes.
It overlapped with Lee’s appearance as a child.
“Come to your senses, Lee.”
Filina raised her eyes and muttered in a solid voice. His mystical pupils stared straight at Philina.
“What’s the point of being a dragon? The divine power has become unremarkable.”
Philina laughed and slammed the blade down hard. Lee leaned back and quickly stepped towards her once more.
Filina, who had been glaring at him fiercely, tightened her grip on her sword. Riding on her hand, a noble energy flowed in.
“At least now I see my power clearer than your divine power.”
Philina lunged at the dragon with her blade raised. Lee threatened her, opening his mouth wide.
However, Philina, who had trampled on the dragon’s feet and jumped high upwards, slammed her sword down hard. Pure white lights swirled around her blade.
The streaks of light that flowed into the dragon’s body became a huge energy that healed the corrupted divine power.
It was a graceful and benevolent force.
A small sprout was rising from the desolate land.
The dragon let out a shrill cry in agony. Filina vowed that this time she would kill the dragon.
The blade that had gone into his body was thrust deeper. The dragon’s body shook violently. Then it spread its huge wings and soared into the sky in an instant.
“Philina!”
Huey shouted urgently, but she had already soared high into the sky. Filina squeezed her eyes shut, barely clutching the dragon’s thick nape of the neck.
“This crazy…….”
I never thought it would soar into the sky. What’s more, I’m going to fly with myself.
My heart was pounding hard. The wind was so strong that I couldn’t even open my eyes properly.
No, maybe I’d rather not be able to open my eyes.
If I had opened my eyes and looked ahead, I would have realized that I was high in the sky, and I would have been confused, which might lead to my fall.
In desperation to survive, Filina grabbed the dragon by the nape of its neck.
Perhaps because of the blade she had thrust into, Lee seemed insane. Philina’s sword was still oozing the aura of divine power she had scattered.
Then the dragon began to descend rapidly to the ground again. A tremendous gust of wind blew my hair in a mess.
It was as if he could hear Huey’s voice from somewhere.
She opened her eyes slightly, looked ahead, and saw a dragon flying swiftly across the ground.
Huey seemed to be working his magic from a distance, but he couldn’t get caught up in the fast pace.
Lee flew non-stop toward somewhere, as if he had a destination. Somehow I felt a sense of foreboding.
Philina looked up to look around, then stared straight ahead. At the same time, her red iris opened large.
“Oh no…….”
I could see a navy blue door in front of the dragon’s path. It was a gate leading to the kennel of the swordsmanship academy.
That’s when I knew. Lee was about to get out of the hallucinatory forest.
Huey was also rushing towards him, shouting an expletive to see if he had noticed it belatedly.
A fierce wind blew. At the same time, the indigo door swung open.
Before Philina could try anything, the dragon walked through the door in an instant.
My whole body shook, and darkness fell.
In the space connected to the indigo door, there was a demon that Philina had lurked. The dragon tore apart the monster’s body in one fell swoop with its sharp claws.
Green blood splattered on Philina’s face. She hastily wiped the blood from her cheeks with the back of her hand. There was a terrible fishy smell.
The dragon that killed the monster broke through the ceiling and soared upwards.
The kennel was built with a huge budget from the military academy because it had to keep the monsters in captivity. Therefore, no matter how excited the demon was, it could not be broken.
But it didn’t seem to be the case for the dragons. Breaking the kennel ceiling with immense ease, Lee swam supplely through the sky.
“De, it’s a dragon……!”
The cadets shouted in panic and began to run away. Instructors jumped out of the building, and the school was razed to the ground.
Filina gritted her teeth and wondered what to do with the situation.
In the meantime, Huey jumped out of the kennel and summoned the demon with magic.
I could feel the world around me getting more noisy.
That’s when I spotted a familiar face among the many cadets running out of the dormitory. Filina frowned at the dragon’s speed, but stared at someone stubbornly.
At the end of her gaze was none other than Henry.
He looked around for a moment, then followed the gaze of others and raised his head to the sky. Then, belatedly, he spotted a dragon flying over the academy, and his expression wrinkled.
He didn’t look as embarrassed as the others. In the midst of such actions, Filina noticed Henry’s movements slower than usual.
I couldn’t see well because of the distance, but the pale skin tone bothered me.
Then his eyes widened as he scanned the sky. He had found Philina clinging to the dragon’s body.
Henry, who had never changed his expression before, took on a look of embarrassment for the first time.
Looking down at him, Filina turned her gaze forward again and bowed her head. The demon summoned by Huey sent a black flame towards the dragon.
There was a tremendous tremor. Philina spat out an expletive, straining the hand that held the dragon.
Lee lunged at the demon. The speed at which it sank to the ground was tremendous.
“Philina! Jump off!”
As I reached the floor, I heard Huey shouting. But she couldn’t move. The dragon thrust its sharp teeth into the demon.
At the same time, her body also showed a strong shaking.
“Philina!”
At the sound of Huey’s voice calling me again, Philina shouted in annoyance.
“You idiot! Would you jump out of this situation if you were like me?!”
The dragon shook the monster’s neck with his teeth. Philina’s body moved with it.
Huey shouted in a heartbroken voice.
“But why do you call me stupid! I hate it!”
That stupid thing…….
Philina looked at him in bewilderment, then slowly lowered the one hand that held the dragon.
Her fingertips caught the sword that was still deeply embedded in the nape of Li’s neck.
With all the strength she had, she pulled out the blade from the dragon’s body.
Chang—
Then Lee, who was biting the demon’s neck, screamed in agony and moved his body violently to drop Pilina.
“Ugh.”
My foot slipped on the barrel that had been shaking so inexorably. It hung precariously, clutching the tips of the dragon’s ears.
“Damn.”
She bit her bottom lip and held the blade of the sword in her right hand toward the dragon’s body. To thrust another knife into him.
Perhaps if he stabbed his sword, the dragon’s movements would become more intense, and he would fall to the ground without being able to hold him any longer.
But it didn’t matter. Even if I hung like this anyway, I didn’t know when it would fall.
So it was better to grant as much divine power as possible and thrust the blade deep into the dragon’s body.
She took a deep breath for a moment, then raised her eyes sharply and raised her hand to thrust her sword into it.
At that moment, the dragon’s long tail slammed hard behind Philina.
“Ugh!”
The pain felt like my skin was being torn apart. The sudden attack weakened the hand that had been gripping the nape of Li’s neck.
Just as her disoriented body was about to fall to the ground, someone stepped on the dragon’s feet and climbed up and wrapped her body around her from behind.
At the same time, the tail of the dragon struck them once more.
Filina reflexively squeezed her eyes shut.
“Ugh.”
But this time there was no pain.
Instead, there was only a faint groan from Henry, who hugged her tightly behind her.
