Chapter 57 Stage Four vs Stage Two Monolith! - Heavy Wounds
Xavida was tending to Asura when she felt a huge wave of magic oscillating from below the mountains. The tidal wave of magic caused her eyes to widen and her body to tremble—the sheer density was enough to cause her body to feel the weight...
'I cannot fight... That... But Asura isn't able to run...!'
"What... should I do husband... after I vowed to you... will it end like this?" (Dragon Speech)
She tried to steady her body, but her left nostril began to drip with blood before her body began to deploy her half-dragon form with beautiful pink and purple scales covering her body.
Xavida struggled to stand firm, looking towards the entrance as the barrier stones crackled and exploded like pop rocks in a bucket of water...
Her heart began to tremble, both of them beating rapidly with a deep thud as if to force the blood and Anima through her veins as she stepped towards the exist...
'The monster cannot find Asura... I will fight!'
⟪Devouring White Dragon Arts⟫
∟ Thunder Raiment!
∟ Lightning Blitz!
Xavida's body crackled with two intense trails of lightning, one white and the other purple, as it arced around her entire body with a loud zap, empowering her muscles and flesh with the white lightning inside her body, while the purple lightning was thicker, striking even her bones as her eyes began to glow brilliant purple with small lightning bolts dancing inside her pupils. But there was a deep terror of facing the enemy outside—with each step it came closer, her bones and soul seemed to tremble in terror.
'I will fight...'
'I will FIGHT!'
'I WILL FIGHT!'
The moment she spoke, her foot kicked off the ground as she shot from the cavern holding two knives now glowing bright purple. Her Stage Three evolution was in full swing as her body wore lightning-like clothes.
Thud!
Her entire body was wrapped in thick purple scales, her teeth sharpening as two huge horns extended from her current smaller ones that she began to hide after noticing most people didn't have them.
Sizzle!
However, now the pink, curved horns crackled with lightning as each step she took caused electricity to jolt from her feet.
As she tore through the air, close to the speed of sound itself, her eyes glowing for each moment, she grew closer to a dragon, her eyes finally spotting the monster...
A tall, dark, bipedal creature, almost humanoid, looked dormant with a body covered in an earthy, brown exterior.
"May the Dragon gods praise my hunt! I will Kill his enemy!" (Dragon Speech)
Xavida's body shot towards the creature—her arms pulled back as two beautiful white wings expanded from her back and propelled her towards the creature with a loud sonic boom.
Like a miniature typhoon surrounding his body, the air and magic density reached impossible levels for Stage Two as his eyes narrowed, darting left and right as he could see and feel the collisions between two powerful creatures.
Bang!
The weaker creature was smashed against the wall... as their magic density plummeted.
Thud! Stepping on the ground, his body fired from the cavern like a bullet, his eyes not leaving the huge mana density as his arms pulled back, one covered in a freezing flame, the other a raging fire of destruction.
He wanted to help Xavida, but the only way to do that was to make this bastard interested in him alone.
"Xavida... wake up... Xavida.... hurry and run! Activate your talisman!"
Asura didn't speak or think anything but to crush this enemy as his left fist, burning with a frigid and intense flame, smashed towards the monster.
"A....Abyss...?" The monster spoke the moment it saw Asura. 'A monster spoke?'
[ASURA DODGE!]
Boom!
There was no time—Asura was sure his fist hit the target... he was sure... but the moment he realised something was wrong, an intense blow caused a sound like something detonating... the world suddenly began to spin rapidly as pain exploded all over his body.
He smashed into the cavern wall, his back torn apart as the black scales as hard as stone and metal were crushed, torn and destroyed like paper... his right eye was damaged with his jaw hanging loose, blood oozing from his damaged eardrum and shattered cheek.
Zzzzzzzzz! The sound of humming... like static and a high-pitched scream, while his vision spun rapidly...
'What...' Bzzt!
Da! Da! Da! Da Da! The monster suddenly appeared in front of the wounded Asura and began to hammer him with barrage after barrage of brutal fists, the sound like a rock hitting a bag of flesh, followed by a loud crack and explosive sound as blood poured from Asura's mouth.
Bah!
With a final blow, the monster smashed his head into the forehead of Asura, knocking him down to the ground, where he landed on the bloody and injured body of Xavida... the sight of blood leaking from her mouth caused him to panic more than his injuries as her talisman finally flickered.
"X.....X...Xavida... Be careful...full... I am Coming...!" The concerned voice of Lorem sounded from the static talisman as his vision almost completely turned black... 'Ah... with this, she will be saved... His fading thoughts sounded.'
"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAA ABYSS!!! ABYSS!!!!" The monster roared, beating its chest, as a huge amount of earth-type magic began to gather density, making it hard for the pair to breathe as it stacked above them.... huge pillars of stone aimed to crush them.
[Asura! Don't sleep... Asura Fenix!]
The hysterical voice of the normally mature and melodic black phoenix from his spirit palace sounded as the sky was blotted with rock pillars... a soft hand squeezed his... despite his arm being crushed and twisted the wrong way...
'Ah... Xavi... I can feel your concern... but I am just a little tired...'
Asura's mind faded into the voice as she tried to embrace his back, with tears dripping down her face onto the destroyed rocks.
"B...bad....guy.... wake up..."
