Chapter 16 - Leading Party vs Exadactylus (1)

All the forces were in the middle of retreating, but all the members of the leading party had the same conclusion in their heads. They're deciding to regroup while Meyeri is flying really fast around the huge monster to distract it.

Bernard said, "By the name of the goddess of healing, Iaso, Remedy!".

All of them were revitalized and then started to quickly plan what they needed to do.

Cithrel said, "I've read this in an ancient book. Exadactylus, a three-headed Goliath, rivals dragons in power, and it wrecked havoc on the world thousands of years ago. I thought it was made-up legends."

Kairos shouts to Meyeri in the distance, "We need to buy some time for everyone to retreat! After that, we will throw in smoke bombs and run away."

Everyone seems to agree with that; they were in sync and were thinking about giving everyone else time to retreat, but Meyeri thinks otherwise and replied from the distance while busy flying and distracting.

"We need to kill this monster!"

Everyone wasn't aware, but after hearing Meyeri's wake-up call, they realized. Looking at that huge monster, they were at a huge disadvantage in power, but there was no one stronger than them. If they retreat, it would come to the capital and probably decimate the entirety of the kingdom's capital. Not only that, but it will also go to other kingdoms in a matter of hours.

Icarus then said, "We need to switch with Meyeri fast; she needs to conserve her lumine for her best offensive strike to kill it. I have an ace up my sleeve. I'll buy some time; please coordinate an attack with Meyeri."

Bernard, looking at Icarus's determination, said, "I'll follow you."

Kairos then said, "I'll also come."

Bernard then said, "No, if we both weren't able to hang on. We still need you for the second strike with Meyeri."

Kairos frowns but nods in reply. Icarus and Bernard then proceeded to run straight to where Exadactylus and Meyeri were. They both throw smoke bombs at the three-headed Goliath heads, causing them to be frantically disturbed.

Bernard shouts, "Switch!"

Meyeri then reflectively flew away, going toward Bernard and Icarus.

Bernard said, "Go to the back rank and talk to Kairos. We have a strategy."

Icarus then shouts, "Go back fast! We'll buy you a bit of time."

Meyeri nods and flies back to where Kairos and Cithrel are. Then Icarus held up his huge sword vertically. The sword started to be covered with red lumina.

Icarus shouts, "Gigantification!"

The lumina started to become really huge; it mimics the sword's blade thirty times its size. It wasn't as big as the foe, but it was enough to make the foe flinch a bit looking at it. Bernard also started covering his mace with white lumina.

"Guess, we're going to hold on quite well."
