68 Chapter 67 (1/2)
Leon wanted to believe that he had the power to defeat dragons; he was almost sure that dragons and megalodons were mortal enemies. One controlled the sea and the other the skies, one couldn't approach the other because they would lose their own terrain advantage… Leon could kill megalodons because he could fly above their reach. Besides, Magma Spear could burn the flesh of the enemies for quite a while. That being said, he only could because the megalodons could only defend themselves inside the ocean… outside, they were quite weak. However, Leon had not a single advantage over dragons… the real dragons, not those earth dragons. It was almost stupid to compare them.
”What is the plan?” Mafuyu asked, looking at the pale Leon.
It didn't look like that dragon could regenerate its body parts so that it could be killed. The problem was the fact that it had to be killed three times. If Leon could attack its heart, it would be great, but the creature was too big and the scales to thick for him to do that alone.
”Cut the heads,” Leon answered. ”It is the only option.”
”I doubt that we have the power to do it,” Mafuyu analyzed the monster. ”The necks are far too thicker for us to cut down.”
”I will do it,” Leon affirmed. ”You guys just draw the attention of the monster and dodge the attacks.”
Leon wasn't expecting much, he even considered the hypothesis that they might leave him to die at the start of the battle, but he just needed a few seconds, if they worked as baits for a few seconds, it would be more than enough.
”All right… we will act as baits,” Mafuyu nodded. ”What exactly do you plan to do?”
”Soon, you will see, just do your best to draw the monsters' attention for a while,” Leon said. ”After that, you can hide if the monster does something unexpected.”
Mafuyu nodded and then started to move with his underlings, while he was trying to approach without being noticed, Leon flew to the ceiling above the dragon. He moved slowly in order not to be seen; he even made a wall of earth to simulate the dungeon's walls. Eventually, he reached the point but soon started to approach the beast when the creature saw Mafuyu and the others.
The earth dragon used to heads to shot earth arrows toward them, but with their speed, they managed to evade the attacks. In the meantime, Leon landed on the monster's nape.
”Some people say that the eye of the storm is the safest place to be… I will confirm this theory now.”
Leon shot several Fire Arrows at the point where the three necks were connected, and when he confirmed that there wasn't anything blocking the path, he made his spears spin and dug in the dragon's flesh. Leon saw the moment clearly when the dragon felt shivers; soon after, the dragon started to tremble.
”GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!”
