"Damn, it looks like my body can't handle this spiritual weapon." Davion thought while looking at the whip. Even though he bled, the injury didn't look so serious.
However, he felt a powerful aura brewing from the back. When he looked behind, he saw a red-colored and blue-colored aura coming out from the dragon.
"Did it get triggered after seeing me hurt?" He muttered as it looked like his plan worked.
"Senior Sister, what is happening to this dragon?" The two girls also looked worried because the aura was becoming stronger and stronger. It was about to reach the Golden Core Stage and they might not be able to handle it.
"My lightning ring had already absorbed all of its Qi. It should not be able to release it. Maybe it is burning its essence," Leyla said.
"Stay near me or else I might not be able to protect you all." Leyla infused her Qi into the whip and powerful lightning energy was gathering on it. It looks like she finally became serious.
"I think I should stay near the dragon. Even though it is releasing such strong energy, it might not be able to beat a disciple in the Golden Core Stage. Especially someone who has mastered a lightning spell." He knew that among all the elements, lightning was the most destructive. It could blow someone to bits in a second. Even his dark energy was not capable of this.
So, he backed away and came to the side of the dragon. The dragon didn't bother about him but was looking at those girls with hatred. Its eyes had already become red. Suddenly, both of its heads opened their mouths at the same time and shot a pillar of flames and ice together which slowly turned into the shape of a dragon.
Seeing this, Leyla swung her whip in a graceful manner and uttered, "Lightning Serpent"
A blue-colored serpent fully made of lightning energy came out from the whip. It had two small wings on its back. It flew meters in the air and then dived down straight towards the dragon made of flames and ice. It looked like it had a life of its own as it perfectly coiled around the dragon and stopped it before reaching towards the girls. However, an explosion took place which generated a huge aftershock.
"BOOM"
"Wow, these special effects were really good. I think I need to learn them in the future." While Davion was exclaiming, he was suddenly caught by a claw.
"Eh!"
The dragon put him on its back and started running. As it had burned its essence, it became very weak after the last attack. So, it was running very slowly.
"Wew, I can't believe it allowed me to sit on its back. Not only that, it's even trying to save me," Davion sighed.
"Trying to escape?" Davion suddenly heard the voice of Leyla coming from the back.
He looked back and saw several small lightning bolts coming for them. Davion was about to make a move but the dragon swung its tail and blocked them.
"Bang! Bang!"
The dragon managed to block them but it felt its whole body getting numb. These bolts were not something that could be handled by it in a weak state. It walked a few steps and couldn't take it anymore. As a result, it fell on the ground with Davion.
Both of its heads looked at Davion and whimpered. Then it finally passed out.
"I.." Davion felt very guilty looking at it. He could feel the love and sincerity in its eyes. However, he simply played mind games with it. He should have been happy after achieving his goal but rather he felt disheartened.
He looked at its body and noticed an unusual change happening to it. The body of the dragon was slowly getting smaller. In a few seconds, it became the size of a house cat.
"This…" He got scared.
"Did something wrong happen?" He inspected it with his Mind-Eye and found that its breath was stable. It looked like it had run out of energy and was in a very weak state.
"Wew, I nearly had a heart attack." He took out some pills from his space ring and fed them in both of its mouths. As he didn't know how the inner system of this dragon even worked.
"I think it should work. Now there is only one thing left to do."
He looked back and saw the girls coming towards him. Then he asked, "What do you want?"
Leyla coldly looked at him and said, "I saw you taking out some pills from the ring and feeding the dragon. It means that you are not from the forest. You are here for the dragon."
"Oh!" Davion looked at her playfully and asked, "So, do you want to kill me?" As his task was completed here, there was nothing left for him to worry about. Thus, he could go all out now. But deep down he was getting annoyed as he couldn't trick them with his new identity. After all, he went through the trouble of wearing the same clothes a native would wear.
