Chapter 509 Power From The Scales

CLANG! Zuggtmoy flew back, glaring at the two rushing at her.

Arad pulled the adamantine sword from his stomach. ^Doma, you two had a plan, right?^

She started dumping the information into his head as he swung his sword.

CLANG! CLANG! Using her long mushroom tentacles, Zuggtmoy deflected Arad’s swings and tried to stab his head.

CLACK! Merida jumped in, deflecting the tentacle before it could pierce Arad’s neck.

Arad jumped over Merida’s back and swung a punch at Zuggtmoy’s face. CRACKLE! She could feel her neck crack, and the shockwave of his punch radiated down to her feet.

SWOSH! Merida slipped between Arad’s legs and swung her sword at Zuggtmoy’s knees. CRACK! She couldn’t cut them, but the impact was enough to drop her down.

Before she could hit the ground, Arad kicked her face, forcing her to stand again where Merida swung at her face.

^Those two… are in sync. No, she’s the one following his moves. At this rate, getting out of their combo is hard.^ Zuggtmoy thought, being thrown left and right by Arad and Merida. 𝓵𝒊𝓫𝙧𝙚𝒂𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝒎

^At this rate, they would kill me…^ Her rocked from left to right, white mucus splashing out of her wounds. ^NO! Even one death is insulting,^ Her eyes turned white.

[Fungal Garden]

From the ground around Zuggtmoy’s feet, sharp mushrooms sprouted like spears, as thick as hair. Arad snatched Merida and started void stepping everywhere, dodging the countless thrusts.

^Should I transform, no, that would make me a larger target.^ Arad started thinking of a plan to buy time. ^She can’t be petrified and doesn’t have blood, so my vampire skills won’t work. She’s quite resistant to magic as well.^

Merida’s fungus slowly absorbed Zuggtmoy’s power and weakened her, but that takes time. Arad’s mind raced to find a way to survive, even for a few more minutes.

It was then that the images Arad saw from Doma’s clairvoyance came to his mind. ^In the far future, humans used my scales to lift islands into the sky to escape the monsters ravaging the land.^

Thud! Arad stood, letting Merida stand behind him as he smiled. With his nails, scrapped scales from his shoulders and arms. “I got a nice idea.”

^It’s the same in the capital when I spread my magic with void expansion to locate targets and activate magic around them. But not I’ll use a more permanent attachment.^

He threw one fist-full toward Zuggtmoy and sent one into his stomach.

The scales around Zuggtmoy started floating, pulling stones toward them with gravity magic until they formed one-meter radius balls. They then burst into flames, resembling meteors as they started orbiting Zuggtmoy, ready to fall on her head.

“I do have more,” A wall of the void appeared behind Arad and the weapons he gathered from all the bandits he killed slowly poked through, pointing at Zuggtmoy. “I have a hoard, a treasury, so I might as well use it.”

^All those weapons have a scale on them that he uses to control them with gravity magic.^ Zuggtmoy stared at Arad, ^This bastard, he’s growing by the second.^

“DIE!” Zuggtmoy pointed her palm at him, sending hundreds of tentacles his way.

BAM! Arad rushed forward, the swords floating around him deflecting Zuggtmoy’s tentacles and shattering with each deflection.

CLACK! The meteors he created started smacking Zuggtmoy left and right, never giving her a chance to rest or focus.

“As I thought!” Zuggtmoy growled, “You kind are better off dead! You magic dragons are monsters that shouldn’t exist!” The tentacles rushing at Arad increased.

Thud! [Time Slow] Arad has been keeping this in the back seat. He didn’t touch it since the last fight he had with Five. But it’s always nice to keep a hidden card all the time.

Time slowed by 90% and Arad’s sword burst with void as jets of flame pushed him from the back, accelerating him further.

Arad cut all of Zuggtmoy’s tentacles in the blink of an eye, his blade reaching her body before she could even realize it. “Action surge, adrenaline rush,” VROOOM!

CLAP! Twenty-eight attacks fell on Zuggtmoy, chopping her head off and dicing her body as Arad blasted through her.

At that moment, when Zuggtmoy realized that her head was chopped, all the meteors fell on her, exploding with enough power to incinerate her flesh.

Arad stood in the back, laughing as blood trailed down his nose. Keeping all this magic active wasn’t easy on his mind, but he wasn’t going to stop anywhere soon.

Each time a meteor exploded, Arad’s scale flew out of it, picked more stone, and ignited again for another attack. An endless rain of meteors kept falling on where Zuggtmoy dropped as Arad tried his best to keep her dead as long as possible.

^He’s a monster,^ The fungi in Merida’s body said.

^Stop talking and hurry. We need you to absorb her power as quickly as possible.^ Merida growled at him. ^I don’t know how long he will last,^

^Gentle words from the one who once tried to throw all of this on him and hide behind his back,^ The fungi replied.

^Shut up! That’s none of your business!^

^Just saying, but I’m at 30% of her power. Hold for a bit longer.^

CRACKLE! As Merida watched, she heard something in the sky. Orion, the constellation Arad assigned Doma to create. As she looked up, her eyes opened wide. A titanic ball of flames blazed above them, and a comet powerful enough to blast the demon queen to ash was getting born.

[Halley’s Comet]

At one moment, an aneurysm burst in Arad’s brain from keeping this much magic active, and his mind stopped working for a second. That slither of time was enough for Zuggtmoy to come back to life, sending one of her tentacles blazing toward him and piercing his chest.

“You’re still a mere mortal!” Zuggtmoy shouted as her body regenerated.

Thud! Arad crabbed her tentacle with his hand, a smile on his face, “I caught you.”

“40%!” Merida shouted.
