Chapter 604 Faldo

Faldo

A High Dragon.

Just like High Elves were superior to Normal Elves, High Dragons were leagues above normal dragons.

And to make matters worse, Faldo was just like Evan.

An Irregular with an 'Undefined' level.

That's one hell of a character to be a hidden boss, innit?

**THUMP-THUMP! THUMP-THUMP!

Evan's heart was beating louder than it ever had, his breaths heavy as he stared at the severed lower body of the adventurer who was standing beside him.

'If I was even a second late…!'

The boy dreaded to think of what would have happened if he was a second late in activating Blink, especially as he didn't have BoD active.

Just as his erratic heartbeats began calming down, he sensed a gaze on him from afar, turning to lock eyes with that of a red-haired woman whose appearance couldn't be any more familiar.

'Kethryllia!'

The instant he saw her, everything fell into place.

The reason why he, and not the 'highest levelled person' was the dragon's first target.

It was Kethryllia who had told the dragon to attack him instead. I mean, it made a lot of sense when you considered how much of a menace to the Demonic Hand he was.

Enough to make her want to stuff him down a Lizard's throat. And she almost succeeded too.

'This is bad.'

Evan needed his BoD + Limit Break combo to handle this Dragon. Kethryllia being here as well, might as well be a death sentence.

'The Beast Kingdom's soldiers are here, but no Sovereign…'

The boy was racking his brain on how to deal with the Demonic Hand executive, but contrary to his expectations, the woman only glared at him from afar, before turning around and disappearing into Lacertilia.

'Why? It's a perfect opportunity for her to take me out if she want-?!'

In his hypercognitive state, his mind fished out the answer before he could even finish questioning it.

From a memory of his, a memory of Aidos Online.

'She wants to reduce the level limit for the barrier!!'

He arrived at the correct conclusion immediately, but he could not do too much about it, as he had a White Dragon Raid Boss to deal with.

[You seem distracted, Irregular Hero. That's not wise.]

"?!"

[Dragon Breath.]

'Elemental Sheild!'

"Divergent Wards!"

**BOOOMMMMM!!!!

'Perhaps this was how one would feel getting hit by a dump truck?'

Evan pondered this as his body crashed against a building wall, blasted out and hit another behind it.

The building's foundations crumbled due to the force of his landing, and it didn't take seconds for the whole thing to come crumbling down on him.

Thanks to his and Eliza's quick reactions, Faldo's short breath did not damage him, but the knockback from it was enough to send him flying all the way from the buffer zone, and straight into the main city.

Thankfully, he crashed into a building that reduced his momentum, so he wasn't sent flying too far in, just a few hundred metres from the buffer zone.

As for the building that collapsed on him? That was negligible.

Evan could currently have a certain 102-floor skyscraper collapse on him and come out with barely a scratch. That A+ durability stat wasn't there for fancy.

The boy emerged from the building's ruins, waving his hand to clear away the dust covering him before looking up to see Faldo perched atop the roof of the first building he fell through.

[You're quite sturdy, so am I.

Or at least, that's what my previous opponents told me before I annihilated their souls.]

Faldo wasn't just talking big; the dragon could really 'Annihilate' people's souls the same way Evan could 'destroy' them.

And that was what made him very dangerous.

Even as he spoke, his tail was waving about so fast it seemed like a blur, smacking down projectiles of all elements that were fired at him by the S rankers behind him.

Seeing this, Evan remembered when Artemisia told him of a year ago that he would not survive a tail flick from Faldo, and the boy couldn't help but agree.

'Certainly, me at that time could in no way, deal with a tail flick that can flick apart Tier 3 magic casually.'

As he thought that, Faldo's tail smacked a giant flaming spear that Evan recognized as 'Flamebourne's revenge', breaking it in two, before going on to send a 'Grand Fireball' back to its caster.

This excludes the part where he hijacked the Grand Fireball and turned the flames white in the short instant it touched his tail.

**BOOMMM!!!

Faldo momentarily glanced at the explosion in the back, and the cloud of smoke it sent up into the sky, drawing a three-ringed darkness magic circle with his tail and firing the spell into it.

Screams of pain and agony rang out from within the smoke, and some of the presences there disappeared, making Faldo lose interest as he turned back to Evan and his party.

The dragon looked at the icy mist that had surrounded his body, sighed as he flapped his wings to clear it up and spoke.

[Mind telling the spirit to stop? It's not going to work.]

Faldo had long noticed Milena's attempt to mix her icy mist in with the dust from the destroyed buildings around them and had blown it away.

While he was speaking, Evan appraised him and made the status tab visible for all his party members, so they could see the stats and skills of the opponent in front of them.

"Is having a ton of skills something you Irregulars fancy or what?"

Eliza couldn't help but ask that as she saw the skill tab in front of her. When she looked a bit lower, she found the source of the very familiar feeling she had been getting ever since Faldo appeared.

'Last time it was Domnik Velak with a 'Child' skill, now this guy has a 'Breath' skill. Why the heck do we keep running into opponents with series skills?'

The girl questioned internally as her grip on the Radiant Codex in her hand tightened. Her support magic skill had been on overdrive since she was currently preparing what she could say was the greatest set of buffs she'd ever used in her whole life.

Evan Faldo was momentarily dumbfounded when he sensed the sheer amount of ether rapidly concentrating on the Radiant Codex.

He certainly wanted to attack her and stop her from doing whatever it was she was doing, but Greed and Pride stood in front of her protectively, while Kayla in her full Spirit Raiment hovered in the air behind her.

Faldo gave up on attacking her since they were very much on guard, but if the dragon could hear her thoughts, then he would definitely rethink that decision.

'Physical Damage-Up + Physical Breach-Up + Keen Weapon + Mighty Arm + Boon of Enhanced Assaults + Charge of Bolstered Binding.

Elemental Damage-Up + Elemental Breach-Up + Tri-Elemental Boost [Flame, Ice, Earth] + Magic Boost + Magic Resistance Negation.

Enchant: Life + Greater Vitality + Stout Guardian + Shallow Grave + Tenacity + Resilience Infusion + Vitality Surge + Invigorate.

Greater Resistance + Magic Ward::Elemental Ward [Flame, Ice, Light] + Energy Ward + Greater Magic Resistance…

…'

The girl's head hurt as she stacked up so many buffs, but she did not relent and even consumed her Child of Life skill charges to enhance both the potency and the duration of the buffs.

Against a dragon with those stats and skills, she wasn't ready to take any chances.

'Support Magic: Grand Sextet Etheric Augmentation.'

Just as she cast the spell, a four-ringed magic circle appeared around her arm, but it glitched and sinister green light tendrils lashed out at Eliza, compelling her to drop the Radiant Codex.

Two of the spell's rings broke, leaving two on the circle until activation.

Evan wanted to turn around when he sensed this, but he also couldn't afford to take his eyes off Faldo who was watching him closely.

[Master, she's fine. It's just a trick for the dragon.]

Kuro's voice rang out in his head, and the content of his words made Evan have a bit of a hard time containing his surprise.

At that same moment, he felt something circle around his arms and legs, underneath his clothes and right atop his skin.

Eliza's buffs manifested visually in the form of rings of light around the user's body parts. And the type of buff dictated where it appeared.

That was something the dragon would see, so she used her skill to move these rings of light and hide them under her companions' clothes.

Only two rings of light appeared on their arms and legs, while the remaining four manifested under their clothes.
