Episode 44.11 (1/2)

Just as Lecan had anticipated, the Petitfire Dragon began swelling up its throat to shot a fireball.

The dragon moved its neck as it opened its mouth wide, unleashing a fireball.

From Lecan's point of view, the dragon looked to move sluggishly, the shot fireball also flew slowly. However, its firepower is quite something.

He easily dodged the fireball. It landed behind him, causing an explosion.

Petitfire Dragon swelled up its throat and shot out another fireball at Julius. Of course Julius also easily dodged that.

The dragon started charging up for another fireball. As both its legs are full of wounds already, it must be using fireballs to buy time and wait for its legs to heal, making use of dragonkind's astounding natural healing factor.

Lecan and Julius moved to the sides while maintaining their distance from the dragon.

Its fireballs are loaded with a lot of mana to afford their firepower. That amount of mana is not insignificant even for dragons. Its mana would diminish if it kept shooting fireballs. As it mana lowers, it will slow down and get less sturdier. In short, they're adopting a strategy to peel off the dragon's mana and enable their attacks to go through.

A fireball was shot at Lecan. He was going to dodge it, but Eda was just behind him currently. Lecan used <Shield of Wolkan> to flick away the fireball.

The rock below Lecan's feet crumbled down at that point, stumbling him.

This little blunder is nothing to Lecan. He can easily regain his balance and <3D Perceptions> constantly monitors the enemy's location anyway.

But it looked as if he was in a dire crisis from an outside perspective.

Petitfire Dragon took a giant step forward and attempted to attack the fallen Lecan ahead.

That was when Julius lunged forward and cut off the Petitfire Dragon's left leg with his <Gale Sword>.

'Ah', Lecan was surprised inwardly.

The slash was a sigh to behold.

The entire swing of the sword looked as if it was shining.

That's just how terrific that slash was.

The dragon tumbled down.

Julius dodged the falling dragon with minimum movement, then he was already behind the dragon's neck just as the thunderous falling sound echoed, and cut the neck clean with an overhead slash.

That was the decisive blow.

”Yay! You did it, Julius-kun!”

Eda elatedly approached.

As for Julius himself, he's staring in blank amazement at the sword both his hands are gripping.

”What was that move. What's it called?”

”Name? Move? No. I did not utilize any technique. I just swung my sword as hard as I could.”

It clicked with Lecan at this point.
