Chapter 82 - Seraph's weep

Sitting lonely in the very quiet library, Iode was engrossed with what he was reading then he said out loud breaking the silence in the room.

"Why in the world is their spells like this, not only is it long but it is also... how do i put it, they are a bit cringe... Eww".

"I'm really glad we don't have to say poetry spells before we cast anymore, I'm really glad ".

Then he resumed his reading.

Igor was stunned with what happened moments ago, he would have been a splatter of red paint if the elf who called himself Zenobios hadn't arrive on time.

"Let's take this thing down together err" Zenobios said.

"Igor, I'm Igor ". Igor said to him.

"Right Igor, let's take it down ".

"I will get its attention using my arrow, you continue casting your spells". Zenobios said. Igor nodded in agreement.

Zenobios jumped off to do his work. Igor watched him, he was having a sense of energy familiarity with the elven individual.

"..."

Zenobios is a brown haired elf who wore a white shirt and green trousers with black cape behind him. He jumped in front of the dragon pulling his bow and ready to launch his arrow.

" spirit of the wind come to my aid and make the piercing strength of my arrow multiply". Zenobios said releasing the arrow from bow.

Visible green energy packed with tremendous power of the wind was sent flying towards the dragon. The arrow hits the dragon in its left eye making it wail in pain.

Igor was quite dumbfounded with this display of power, none of the attacks he made worked on the dragon but a single strike from the elven arrow made the dragon groan in pain, how marvelous.

The dragon became even more enraged than ever before, it roared very loudly and angrily. This time rather than just destroying properties with her limbs, she starts to breathe fire of destruction to the surrounding area with the intention of burning both Igor and Zenobios especially Zenobios.

"Tch, with no arm and no legs, spread your waves and quench the burning incandesce in front of me ". Igor said as waves of water from thin air appeared and quenched what little flame it could.

"Tsk, the water isn't enough, i have to cast more spells ". Igor said.

"Igor!, are you alright ". Barbara said as she ran towards him.

"Barbara? What are you doing here, you are supposed to find a safe place to stay ". Igor said shocked seeing Barbara with him.

"I can't leave you here alone fighting a suicide battle, plus your sister would kill me if i told her you fought a dragon alone". Barbara replied.

"Fair enough ". Igor said.

"I hope i am not interrupting such a sweet reunion but we have a problem we have to deal with here". Zenobios said getting out of a rubble.

"Right ".

"You two keep casting spells on it to slow it down, I'll get on to deal as much damage as i can ". Said Zenobios.

"No problem". Both Igor and Barbara said.

Zenobios lunged forward towards the rampaging dragon, while Igor and Barbara stood in where they are casting spells together.

"Igor cast this spell with me wisdom of the earth is second to none, use your talent and sink our enemy ". Barbara said to Igor.

Igor nodded as they both casted the spell together.

Like quicksand, the ground around the dragon starts to sink. The dragon noticed this and attempts to get away but Zenobios would not give her the chance, he kept firing arrows after arrows, distracting the dragon as well as dealing damage.

The dragon has been successfully trapped in the quick sand and Zenobios kept firing arrows. While the arrows were dealing quite the damage, it was not enough to put the dragon down.

"Tsk, my arrows only remains five i have to do something before they are exhausted". Zenobios said to himself.

He jumped on the dragons back and aimed his arrow at the nape of the dragon, firing it at a precise point.

The dragon who was already super angry shook itself aggressively at an attempt to make Zenobios fall and also free herself.

"Element with a sense of direction, direct yourself in the form of a sharp cutting edge of a blade and cut my enemy as you wish ". A voice said a little distance away.

Wind with visible sharp cutting edges were seen moving towards the dragon. Zenobios seeing this jumped off the dragons back and the wind blades were hitting the dragon.

Zenobios smiled seeing a new helper join the fight. He pulled his bow and fired his arrow at the neck of the dragon. The dragon made a loud cry.

Sustaining numerous wounds from Zenobios arrows and the very shallow cut from the wind blades, the dragon seems to be bleeding quite a lot. With it remaining one eye, it looked at Zenobios and his two companions as well as the two who just joined the fight with great contempt.

It roared very loudly and angrily making an ear deafening sound. It soon free itself, growl a little then it flew and went away.

"Did we win"? Barbara asked.

"Seems so". Zenobios replied her jumping by her side.

"Igor"!!! Seraph made an ear deafening cry that made Igor shriek behind Barbara.

"What is the meaning of what I just witnessed, i saw you fight a dragon all by yourself". Seraph said angrily.

"What? It to save people in times of distress". Igor replied hiding behind Barbara.

"Distress? You were fighting a battle of suicide, you called that saving? If you had died you would have died for naught you fool of a boy". Seraph ran to Barbara's back and held Igor by his ear twisting it.

"Ouch, ouch it hurts, be careful don't cut my ear". Igor pleaded.

"Your ear should be the last thing you should be worried about, and you, where were you, why did you let my foolish brother get to fight a dragon on his own ". Seraph said pointing at Barbara.

"I tried to stop him but he ran off on his own ". Barbara defended herself.

"Igor youuu". Seraph said has her anger starts to become weeping

"Igor you are the only family member left remaining, i don't know what i would have done if you have died fighting the dragon ".

"Promise me you won't do such reckless thing again without my presence okay ". Seraph said weeping and hugging Igor tightly.

Igor knows it's because of love that made his sister break down like this, so he didn't refute Seraph's words.

"What a warming sight, wish i have someone that would worry over me too". Zenobios said with a bit of a sneer.
