Aveline allowed her Dryad Queen form to fade away, returning to her original look. Her vines grew weaker, but countless stone walls began to line the battlefield.
'If I can't use my vines to constrict them, I'll try to blind them with their technique.'
Aveline began to make her stone walls crumble, spiralling them into the air and recompiling them into sand dunes. Large gouts of flame began to erupt along each dune, slowly melting the surface of the sand.
"M-Master, what is she doing?"
"Her last ditch effort. I'm curious, what can she cause with sand and fire?"
Aveline began to pant.
'I can't use ice, he will just manipulate it with Alpho's powers. I need to make it hotter! I need more power!'
Her deep crimson flames suddenly began to turn a flowing violet, the area noticeably growing hotter.
"Not enough."
Sweat began to build up, slowly sliding across her body. Aveline raised both hands, chanting.
"Build on heat, increase the flames, scorch what I wish!"
Suddenly, an eruption of flaming wisps sprouted in the area. Many settling within Aveline's fire. The violet hue began to waver, causing deep blue flames to appear.
"Haha! That's nearly... enough!"
Aveline smiled as she saw the sand begin to liquify. Increasing her direct input of magic, she could feel a sudden searing pain within her chest.
"Damn. Fueling fire with magic is dangerous."
The corrupted beings stood on the opposite side of the dunes. Both were confused as the temperature continued to rise. Desv's assistant knelt down as the pressure became even more unbearable.
Aveline's eyes began to blur as she manipulated her magical flames, increasing the heat even more.
"Why... why can't I do it? Am I really that weak against mental attacks?"
A voice suddenly resounded near her.
"Your efforts are commendable, but at this rate... *sigh* I wish not for my daughters broken heart. Take this blessing, young hero. May the flames in your heart grow stronger. Rend this trash to dust, then allow him to reclaim his former glory! We depend on your power!"
Aveline smiled as a new flame erupted on her shoulder. It burned through her shirt, leaving her left shoulder bare as the flame etched itself into it.
'Draconian Champion's Mark received.'
"Good. I don't know what the hell you'll fuse with, but your power is mine!"
The Draconian mark began to emit powerful waves of heat, increasing them temperature of Aveline's flames drastically. The dark blue flame slowly became a snowy white.
"This mark may as well activate fully."
The white flame crept over to Aveline, consuming her body. Overhead, Naname looked on in fear as Aveline vanished from sight.
-
Sitting up, the tan beauty rubbed her eyes.
"Aveline's birthday... hehe."
She smiled, revealing her sharp teeth. Her short red hair began to glow as flames sprouted on it.
"Ack! Calm down, calm down! Don't burn the bed again!"
Wesrey got to her feet, patting out the small fires she left behind. Smiling at her goofy show, she spun around and started to ready herself for the day. She was quick, even with her larger body. Going about her routine, she suddenly felt an intense heat wave. The magic emitted was familiar.
"Aveline? Is she practicing fire magic? I could've helped her..."
Wesrey pouted as she began to head towards the flames. Even if Aveline didn't wanna bother her, she was gonna bother Aveline.
"I've loved you two times now, I have a right to bug you! Especially when you're sweating from those incredible... flames? What the hell?"
Picking up speed, the heat of the flames began to concern Wesrey. She bursted through the wind barrier, notching it only after it sealed itself back. The flames inside were much hotter.
"This isn't a practice area! S-Sylvra?!"
Wesrey crouched down next to Sylvra. She was drenched in sweat, but her face was determined as she stared into an incredibly massive white flame.
"How are you even awake?"
Wesrey began to cast flame warding spells over Sylvra, her face noticeably calming.
"Aveline... in the... fire."
Before Wesrey could dash towards the flames, knowing they'll burn even her alive, Sylvra grabbed her arm. Her eyes said everything. "Believe in Aveline."
-
'Hehe. This feels really nice. It's like I'm being licked by a snowman. It's so cold... no hot? So hot it feels cold?'
Aveline opened her eyes and stared at her skin. The beautiful pale color was turning a beautiful bronze as her clothes turned to cinders. She stared in wonder as the flames on her body extinguished, leaving a line of scales that along her body. From both sides of her neck, leading down to her wrists. The scales grew, covering her wrist fully as a powerful claw looking gauntlet appeared over her hand... no the claw was her hand. Deep crimson scales, and dark smouldering claws. The scales fully covered up to her half of her forearm, the rest was the same line leading to her neck.
Aveline flexed her fingers, the feeling was almost natural. She smiled as she inspected more of her body.
The same phenomena appeared on her legs, her feet becoming draconic in appearance. The deep red scales, as well as the black coal like claws. The claws could even move individually. Her scales ran up her knees, wrapping around her waist as a scaled skirt appeared on her body. This wasn't her body, however. A black, almost pantylike, scale covered her precious area as deep crimson scales flared out from her hips. The skirt was almost cute, though it was rather lewd as half of the black scale was still visible from underneath. From her hips, the red scales lined her body, reaching her armpits, then continuing towards her wrists once more. From her ribcage, the scales wrapped around her breasts and in between them. The same black scale material covered them, surrounded by the crimson ones.
Aveline blushed at her heavily exposed body, moving it as best as she could when a fire seemed to fall in front of her face. She reached for it, tucking it behind her ear as if it was the only natural reaction.
"Wait, my hair is fire?"
She pulled it back down, a beautiful white flame erupting within her eyes.
"It's gorgeous... what the hell am I?"
She giggled as the white flame covering her faded. She stretched her muscles, realizing how toned she became in this form. Gleaming red eyes blazed with excitement as her white flame erupted with more power.
-
A trail of blood fell from two princesses noses as they stared at the tan beauty that stepped free from the flames.
"Does she even realize how sexy that is?"
"I don't... think so."
Both girls wiped their noses, watching her every move. They noticed a massive scaled tail coming from her waist, both wondering what it could do. It looked strong.
"I don't think I can hold back if she ever approaches me like that."
"I'll melt... maybe she... can become icey?"
A cute blush spread on Sylvra's face, her precious lewd reaction a mere memory.
"I'll she gains ice, it'll be beautiful. That fire though... I swear, my panties have never been wetter."
"Pervert."
Both girls eyes were glued to Aveline as she began to stare at her own tail. They giggled as they saw her reach for it, her crimson eyes lighting up in excitement. Her voice was loud as she screamed.
"I'll have a fucking tail! That's so... awesome!"
