Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Chapter 104 Zrector's Brethren



Zick and Zrector never stopped clashing recklessly even though their bodies were in a dangerous state.

Zick's current state could only be explained in a single word-

Horrible.

The black scale on Zick's body and arms had lost their previous strong lustre and looked worn out. The scales on his back had already been totally destroyed, exposing his skin which was covered in blood. There was a huge scar diagonally on his back.

The dragon Lord's heart within him started to look like dried wood. There was no sign of its previous vitality.

There were small and large scars all over Zick's body. The scales on his face had been destroyed too, exposing his face.

"Grrrrrr....." Baring his teeths like a threatening beast, Zick flew towards Zrector with his right hand stretched forward.

Zrector had tried to make a little distance between them multiple times while fighting, but it always ended in failure. Zick would keep attacking it, covered in blood like an undying immortal.

Zick's dragon eyes had also been enhanced tremendously, allowing him to see the invisible attack from before. So he was able to block those attacks when it was aimed at the opening of his scales.

Zrector's body was also a mess. It was full of wounds in claw shape and losing two of its back leg had caused its movement to be a little awkward in the sky. It had lost one of its horn, destroyed by Zick.

Zrector bled from all over its huge body.

It had also lost the majestic presence that it had in the beginning.

The dominant presence that it gave off had vanished.

It had almost used up all of its higher form of energy while fighting Zick. Normally, it had a large storage of this energy, but after transforming into the red lightning form a large amount of higher energy was used up.

If Zick was conscious right now, he would label the special ability to turn into red lightning as the best means to escape from an enemy. But Zrector would never use it to run away, it would rather die here than running away.

If it's brethren saw it in such a pitiful state they would have mocked him. A tinge of sadness rose within it, but it was erased the next moment. They were no more in the world in the end, so it didn't matter.

BOOM!

In the next clash, Zick was thrown back by the impact. He had already started losing the power he gained after using the awaken ability.

Feeling Zick's presence falling at a rapid speed, Zrector knew that this was an opportunity. It decided to put everything it had in this one attack.

To protect the place where its fallen brethren rested!

Zrector fought not running away, it actually hoped to die in the same place its family, sibling and rivals rested. He also wanted to rest. It had been protecting this place for a long time.

It had lived for more than a thousand years, experiencing many things. Deep within, Zrector still felt lonely, being left behind in the world.

Even as Zrector grew old, it didn't stop protecting this place. it's body started to wither, but seeing itself dying like this, instead of sadness, it felt immensely relieved.

It felt fatigued, but it didn't want to let its life end in vain. It wanted to protect this place till the very end. It felt immense responsibility rising within it, washing away the fatigue, giving it power to keep moving till now.

Even if Zrector died, there was something it had to do before that.

Zrector glared straight at Zick, it couldn't allow him to live. From what it could see, it knew that Zick in his current state would still go on a rampage even after it died.

No matter what, Zrector wanted to kill Zick to be sure that it's brethren's resting place wasn't disturbed.

ROAR!!!

With all the power it had left within it, Zrector roared loudly with its head lifted up. The whole sky shook from the might behind this roar. The aquatic monster who weren't able to run away died instantly.

Zrector's body started to shine in a red glow, illuminating the whole sky and the sea below. The red glow grew denser with more lightning being generating within it.

SPLURT!

The wounds all around Zrector's body started bleeding rapidly, the blood almost flew out like a fountain. It was exerting itself to form a attack beyond its capabilities.

Zick strength stabilized at that instant, it started rising rapidly again. Reaching his prior strength and even starting to surpass it.

''Roar!!!" In the end, Zick started using his own body's potential to maintain the awakened state. The blood which was converted to that of a dragon started losing its power. Shining a little more dimmer than before.

Zick started preparing to use the breath attack again immediately.

Bang! Zrector headed towards Zick now almost looking like a ball of red lightning. This was its final try, the strongest attack it could conjure at the moment.

Like a meteor, Zrector reached in front of Zick at an unprecedented speed.

BANG!!!

At that moment, Zick breathed out black flames without caring about the limit of his body, he was not bothered at all from the pain which came from his burning lungs and throat.

Zrector withstood for a few seconds before being pushed back. It had runned out of a higher form of energy as well as the remaining endurance of its body.

But of course, this kind of attack needed a lot of power behind. This power didn't come just from the extracted potential, but the lifeforce in other word, his lifespan and as well as his origin of the mana nerves itself.

The black breath attack covered Zrector's whole body rapidly with the resistance lowered now.

Slowly the breath attack stopped, showing the result of this fight.

Zrector's body had been destroyed to nothingness. It couldn't kill Zick in the end.

At last, one of the beings who was considered as the strongest in the world and feared by humans, as the five disasters had died. It had died while fighting to the very end, not escaping even in face of a potential death.

This would without a doubt affect the original plot of the novel ' the hero of velveric fights the demon lord' to a huge degree.

Zick's figure started falling towards the water at a high speed. He had lost consciousness after using the last attack, his body had no strength left within it.

After using the last breath attack, Zick's dragon blood's quality had fallen tremendously. It wasn't possible to re energize it again now that the dragon heart had lost all of its potential along with capabilities.

The dragon heart didn't energize the blood pumped by it one bit now.

The dragon's scales started falling off his body one by one, but some of them had already fused with his body permanently. The horn and the few scales in his face did not vanish.

But the power which came from the awaken ability vanished into thin air.

Zick's body size decreased and reached back to his initial height. There was only a few centimetres difference from his original height and size.

His skin looked extremely pale too, almost like snow.

Zick's strength fell to an unknown level along with all his potential and talent disappearing, really a despairing situation.

SPLASH!

Falling onto the sea, Zick started sinking deeper into the endless abyss of the ocean.

**********

Eastern continent, one of the alchemist tower

''Multiple people appeared out of thin air? And that also in multiple places at once, you say?" A man in his middle age wearing a white coat along with a book in his hand asked his disciple while reading it.

''Yes master, all the four alchemist tower have gotten interested in this matter and are buying them off the slave markets in a flash." The disciple named hevelk, spoke in a respectful tone, filled with reverance to this middle aged man.

''Ohh that is interesting.'' Rubbing his black beard, the alchemist who was the current leader of the Jhesker alchemist tower, Verent took his gaze off the book for the first time.

''So what have they found out about these transported people until now?" Verent felt this incident to be interesting. He had been stuck in an important research for a long time, so he wasn't aware of it.

''From what the towers could gather and have made public, the people who appeared out of thin air were citizens of the other continent, the one we are going to a war with" Hevelk felt this to be absurd just like anyone else.

''From another continent? So how did they get here?" Verent got off the chair, he knew that he had to look deeper into this as an alchemist tower leader.

''Hmm....they said a pillar of pure white light appeared from the sky and brought them to this continent.....'' There was no way anyone could believe this after all. Hevelk found this to be unbelievable to the extreme too. He frown making a disgruntled expression.

Even Verent squinted his eyes pondering about something.

''Most of them have been turned into slave by now, yes?" Verent asked his disciple seriously. If what the slave said was the truth then, he wanted to find out more about this unknown power.

Even if what the people of the middle continent said was a lie, it was still a matter of fact that they appeared in the eastern continent mysteriously. This was enough to make Verent look deeper into it.

''Yes master, most of them have been turned into slaves and put in the labour class slaves.''

In the eastern continent, slaves were a normal thing. So there were many devisions of the slaves.

''Good, bring as many as this slave from the other continent you can and order the other alchemist to collect them too.'' Verent ordered like he was telling to collect some toys.

''Understood!" Answering loudly, Hevelk headed out of the white laboratory room.
