Chapter 449 - 24

I wanted to kill her. Not damage my teeth any further. I spit out those damaged teeth. I was glad the scales that covered the muscle of her wings was thinner. It gave me an idea of where I should strike next.

I yanked both of my wing hooks through muscle. Making it nearly impossible for her to continue flying. She was going to fall. I let her fall. I snapped my wings open, and my fall turned into a sharp glide.

I turned up sharply. Ignoring the male as he tried to regain his lost altitude. I circled closer to the another group. I could practically taste their fear. I was on a warpath.

Killing everything in my path, and they knew it. I inhaled again. Preparing to blast them with elementally charged mana. The temperature of the air around me dropped sharply. I wasn't going to use lightning this time.

I heard the second volley go off. I felt the missiles speeding along. I dove away from the wyverns suddenly as space warped. The missile were all directed at the smaller wyverns. Once the smaller ones were taken out I would only have to worry about one wyvern.

It was more difficult to contain this explosion then the first one. It was my fault for trying to contain the explosions with less mana. I turned upward sharply after the explosion went away. The second volley killed all of the remaining males that were grouped up with females. A glance down was all it took to make the remaining male slammed right wing first into one of the frozen trees.

Someone wasn't paying attention to where he was flying. I could kill him later. There were only two females left now, and neither had any males with them. One more volley was a bit extreme for just the two of them. My eyes darted over to the alpha when Gaia's power left the battlefield.

That was a problem. I snarled as my roar shook the battle field. The alpha sensed the same thing that bothered all three of her remaining subordinates. The amount of power I had accumulated throughout the entire field was staggering. I could see the moment the alpha decided to kill me before I could make use of that power.

I rushed away from her as she pursued me. She was faster then I was, but I could still manipulate the space around me. I could cheat my way ahead of her as many times as I needed. I swung outward as she chased me so that I would be able to swing my way toward one of her three subordinates. The air shook as I started gathering control of all the mana within my barrier.

The alpha sensed the change in that mana. Not just her. I was pretty sure that every single living creature within the storm could sense the change as the rain stopped falling. People had slowed in their efforts to reload the cannons.

"Don't stop," In my attempt to make my voice carry the way Gaia had I accidentally projected my voice to the entire area under my control.

The men redoubled their efforts to reload the cannons so I didn't think about the slight waste of mana. The air started blowing hard as all the mana within the barrier started moving with me. The wind hit my wings. Pushing me forward with a great deal of force. My speed far exceeded what I was normally capable of.

I took advantage of the surge in speed to stay ahead of the alpha. My bones felt almost as if they were creaking under all the extra force. The third volley was almost ready. I surged forward. Staying just ahead of the alpha female as she tried to blast me with flames.

The flames were consumed by all the surrounding mana under my control. Adding to the amount of power I could manipulate. I snarled at her stupidity. She disliked that I had the balls to snarl at her.

{Poke that big bitch in the eye,} I mentally asked all three of my bonded.

I wanted more room to breath. Her teeth snapped a scant ten feet from the tip of my tail. I pushed myself along even faster. I felt it more then saw it when Savannah threw a mass of darkness at her. The darkness hit her in the face.

It didn't burn like fire so there was no smell when she burned. The darkness didn't last long, but the alpha did back off when she was temporarily blinded. I heard the cannons go off. It wasn't difficult to manipulate space so that every single one of those missiles were aimed at the four remaining wyverns. The buffer of fire, and debris that flew from impact propelled me clear of the alpha.

I took all the surrounding mana under my control all at once. The entirety of the storm stilled all at once as the clouds above us broke revealing clear blue sky for a split second before all hell broke loose. All of space within the barrier broke all at once. Only two places were spared. Where I was, and where the humans were.

Large chunks of the ground were suddenly skyward. Space warped, and crack in multiple places as dozen of small black vortexes sucked in loose debris. I'd intentionally broken all space within my barrier. Shifting it violently, and creating the vortexes. Large chunks of flesh hung suspended in the air for a few seconds as space corrected itself.

Slamming massive chunks of rocks, and flesh into each other as space snapped back into place. The vortexes shrank quickly by the second. And I was still in the sky. The large alpha screamed in anger, and pain as she was drug back down to earth by the natural gravity of the world. She was missing large swaths of her body.

Large chunks of her wings were missing. She would never fly again. Now that I was getting a better look at her I could tell that she was lucky to be alive. She'd lost large chunks of her body along with her wings. Her left leg was missing entirely.
