Chapter 25 - CHAPTER 25: Loot

[Third Person POV]

The battle between Ryujin had Nagis had gone on for thirty minutes straight.

Ryujin was coughing blood continuously while using his magic.While Nagis on the other hand hand cuts all over its body.

Its regeneration power were also running out as it had no mana left to absorb from the surrounding.

Nagis then started using the Mirage necklace and gained more power.

Its green eyes started to glow red and spike started appearing from its scales.It looked as if cactus was growing out from its body.

It swung it's spear at Ryujin's torso.Ryujin dodged it but the force behind the attack pushed Ryujin farther away.

Ryujin was tired.Even by using Rune magic the fight against Nagis was not easy. He could easily kill this monster if he used Kairos but Ryujin was stubborn.

Ryujin closed his eyes. He was going to cast a B-rank magic.This was the last magic attack he could muster using the magic he had left.

Nagis didn't let Ryujin cast his magic.The shield opened and started spitting out fire.

Ryujin jumped and started running in a circle. Ryujin was dodging the attacks and running at the same time.

Nagis wipped its tail at Ryujin but he simply parried it again.

Once the spell was completed tens of magic circle appeared in mid air.

Nagis was ready to dodge the attack that was coming its way.It used the mana from the necklace and buffed its defence even more.

The spikes grew even more and its scales were even stronger now.

Then it released posion breath from its mouth to minimize Ryujin's sight.

Ryujin was not worried about the poison. He held his breath and chanted

Soon tens of snakes appeared from the magic circle. This snakes were black in color and were infused with dark element magic.

Ryujin gave a small smirk.He found it ironical how he was using snakes to kill a bigger snake.

Nagis could perfectly see even in the posion smoke.It could see the snakes rushing at it.It holded it shield in a defence stance and started spining its spear to push away the attack.

But the snakes passed through the spear and the shield and bit on the Nagis.

The snakes bit on every part of Nagis's body and started wrapping their tails around it.Nagis felt immesurable pain and started hissing.

"Hiss!Hiss!"

It tried to move but the snakes had already wrapped their tail around its whole body and locked its whole body movement.

Ryujin then jumped towards Nagis neck. He started to butcher Nagis's neck. The attack wasn't enough to cut to deep so Ryujin kept cutting at the same spot.

Ryujin then used his last bit of mana and coated his knife with fire.The fire started to char the neck of Nagis.

It could only scream in pain. After few minutes of continuously cutting the neck was finally severed . Its head fell down.

The snakes around the body disappeared. Despite being a E-rank Ryujin had successfully defeated a A-rank boss.

******

Ryujin was tired from the fight. He would definetly faint and the posion cloud hadn't disappeared yet.

Since the fight was over Ryujin decided to use Kairos.He simply turned back his body to the time when he had full mana and no injuries.

He looked as if he had never fought the battle.His ability was truly a cheat.Every injury in his body was healed.He was now completely fine.

He then casted a cleanse spell and the posion cloud disappeared.

Ryujin looked at the Nagis dead body and said"Don't worry I will make good use of your loot."

Ryujin then walked towards the huge stone where Nagis was sitting in the first place . He went behind the stone and saw a small room where there was heaps of treasure.

There were lot of silver coins.The coins were shining so brightly that the room was covered in silver light.Ryujin examined the coin.He estimated each coin to be around 1000$. $ was still used as the main currency in this world.

There were also swords,books and armors in the treasure room.

Ryujin then asked the system."Hey system can you store all of this?"

[Yes]

As soon as the system answered the ring automatically moved out of Ryujin's finger and started hovering over the teeasure. It looked like an UFO.

As the system ring was busy gathering the treasure.Ryujin headed towards the Nagis body and started dismantaling it.

Ryujin dismantaled its body.He made sure to seperate the mana core and the necklace.It was now time for its head.It looked at its eye and still felt something from it.

Then the system suddenly spoke

[Would you like me to store its body and the Mirage necklace as well ?]

"Wait!You can talk with me even when I am not wearing the ring."

[Yes, I was made to help you.The ring was just so we could form a connection.Otherwise I wouldn't be able to share my knowledge with you.

However,please keep wearing the ring,I can only appraise thing when you are wearing it]

"Ok"

Ryujin didn't dismantle the head because he didn't want to ruin the eye.

Once the ring finished looting the treasure room.It came hovering over at the Nagis body and sucked his whole body into the ring.

The ring then moved automatically into Ryujin's index finger.

"Hey system appraise it's eye"

[Sure]

[Nagis Eye

-Can increase vision in the dark

-Can increase sight upto 200 meters

-Mana flow can be observed

-Excludes incredible blood lust

]

"What a nice eye. Too bad I cannot have it." As Ryujin was saying that the system showed a message that shocked Ryujin.

[Would you like to integrate this eye into your own eye.]

"You can do that?"

[Yes,Since the eye hasn't been infected I can do it but the pain you will experience will be immense as I am not replacing the eye but integrating it in you physical state.]

Ryujin knew that something in your body would be painful but that also had its own benefit.

It the eye is damaged or ever taken out from Ryujin's body he could use Kairos to bring back his eye and even the abilities that come with it. Only he could do this.

"Start the process now"

[Ok.The process will be for one minute staright please brace yourself."]

The ring then excluded light over the Nagis eye and the eye disappeared.

Soon Ryujin could fell burning pain in his eyes.He sat down and bit a part of shirt to stop him from screaming.

The pain felt as if someone was holding a hot rod of iron staright at his eye.

Blood was pouring from his eye.He was scatching the ground because of the pain.He thought of using Kairos to lessen the pain but that might probably erase the whole process.

After one minute the pain was gone.Ryujin slowly opened his eyes.The system acted as a mirror and it showed a reflection of Ryujin in its screen.

Ryujin looked at his eyes.His hazel eyes was gone and red and orange color was mixed in his iris and his pupil was like a straight line of a snake.

Ryujin then let go of the mana poring in his eyes and his eyes returned to normal.

[Congratulations.The opeartion was successfull.Your stats have also increased.]

"Thanks!Sytem show me my original stats and the most valuable treasure you could find here."

Ryujin was satisfied with his loot.He noticed that the Nagis eye had evolved.He asked "Hey system why did the eye evolve?"

[The ability of the Nagis eye is still the same however the blood lust you can exclude has increased.It is mainly because you can perfectly control your aura however your eyes cannot hide your bloodlust. The blood lust you release with your normal eye is far terrifying than Nagis eyes.Both abilities have combined and the bloodlust will be even more terrifying.]

"Hmm.I see. So what happens to the dungeon?"

[After one week the dungeon will respawn nagas again except the boss because of the large supply of mana in this cave.You can come here again to train yourself.]

"Okay"

Ryujin then walked out of the dungeon and looked at the sky and exclamied"Looks like I can rest for a while."

Little did he know that he had already jinxed it.
