Chapter 624 Vampiric Sun Dragon
Chapter 624 Vampiric Sun Dragon
Eris stood from her chair, staring back into the ballroom, "Aella," She called.
Aella approached her, "Need something?"
"Tell Arad to meet me at the destroyed Alter," She said, her eyes glowing with purple and golden. Her body shifted into a black and golden mist, shimmering through the night sky as she flew into the sky, leaving a trail of strange magic.
Aella lifted her hand, catching some of the mist, "Holy and blood magic at the same time, they aren't canceling each other, but instead getting stronger."
She could see the full moon shimmering in the sky, "No, a plasma draconic mixed magic was mixed in."
"If Amaterasu blessed her," Zephyr landed on Aella's head, "Vampiric Sun Dragon," She said, "It probably won't be a transformation, but she'll slowly?mix her bloodlines with holy magic and grow stronger,"
"A vampire that can't just resist the sun, but holds its power," Aella turned to call Arad but found him standing right behind her.
"You here? Eris said to meet her at the alter,"
"Katal's Alter, the place she blew up weeks ago," Arad took a step, walking past Aella, "She's already there, probably asking for a fight."
"I don't think that's the case," Aella sighed.
"Arad is right," Zephyr said, "I can't get in her head, but it's how dragons marry," Zephyr looked at Aella's eyes, "Since she's the one coming to him, she went and laid rest close to him, waiting for him to attack."
"Fire, lightning, plasma, sun, and blood. She'll be waiting there with all of her might, waiting for me to answer her call," Arad's muscles expanded a bit, "I'll not disappoint her,"
ZON! He disappeared into thin air, using [Void Step] To teleport to the house that had the cavern's entrance.
Upon landing in the courtyard, he could feel an ominous presence pulsing from the building. He looked around, seeing that people had woke up in the middle of the night, sensing danger and starting to move away. Not a single animal or monster remained near. They all fled out.
"Like a proper dragon, her mere presence is forcing the ecosystem around her to change.
Arad approached the door and held the handle, feeling a cold sweat dripping across his back. Upon opening the door, he could feel a gust of warm wind rush out, carrying Eris's scent, will, and magic out like a powerful perfume.
He smiled, walking inside the abandoned house. With each step, he could feel Eris's presence grow stronger. She was the same woman he knew, but something about her was different, holy magic trailed alongside her magic that he knew.
Arad reached the stairs leading to the basement, and he could smell Eris inside, like a flowing cloud. He could see her magic gushing out of the basement.
Arad smiled, "In such a short time. By only having an additional element, her power spiked this much. She is stronger than that adult red. No, she may have reached the level of an adult purple dragon like her father. Despite being a half-dragon."
He pushed further, reaching the stone door blocking the entrance to the cave system. Strands of magic sealed the door, only allowing entry to those authorized. This wasn't magic set by Eris, but something left by others.
^I thought Eris destroyed the place. Did someone come here after that?^ He touched the door, and it flashed white.
"You shall not pass," A woman's voice came out of the door, "What is the word?" She added.
Arad stared at the door for a second, "It isn't wise to get between a dragon and his mate,"
The door remained silent for a second, then opened up, "Go in," She said.
As Arad entered, Doma was inspecting the magic of the door. ^[To think magic would respond to a dragon? I doubt that thing understood fear or reasoning. Was it programmed to let Arad in? What were the conditions?]^She then giggled, ^[I get it, a fiend,]^
Arad walked through the cave until he reached the open cavern, and he could hear Eris breathing inside. He went inside and could see her sitting on a stone, staring at him with glowing eyes.
"That was quick," She said, "I expected you to take longer,"
"I can wait if you still need to prepare," Arad smiled, opening his arms, "I never expected you to awaken such power, albeit it could be my fault as well," He remembered how Amaterasu showed up and he couldn't move, if he was a bit stronger, it might have played differently.
"No, I'm ready," Magic pulsed out of Eris's body as she jumped down from the stone, all of her nails glowing crimson as her bare feet landed on the ground, scorching it.
Arad cracked his neck, "Last time, you managed to push me to half-dragon form, but lost immediately,"
"I'd love to say I'll drag you to the bed," Eris stared at him, "But no one got her time since the weddings started, and I'll not step over them," She smiled.
"So even if you won, you'll wait for them?" Arad smiled.
"And you should do the same," She waved her hands, her nails leaving a golden trace in the air, "I just have this itch, to test my strength on you."
"It's the same," Arad stared at her, "When a human girl gets something beautiful, like jewelry, let's say a ring, the first thing she does is show it to her lover," He took a step forward, "For dragons, it's the same with power. You want to show your strength,"
"Does that mean," Eris looked at him, "You never loved anyone, you never attacked any of us,"
"I do love you all," Arad clenched his fist, "It's just that I understand that only dragons express their love with violence. Humanoids appreciate different things, and I do try to learn."
"Guess," Eris took a stance, plasma and holy magic sparking from her nails and up to her shoulders, "More dragon than an elf,"
"Express yourself as you wish," Arad took a stance, "Be it in dragon's way, or in elves' way, I'll adjust to what you feel comfortable with,"
"Thank you," Eris smiled, her lips glowing red as her fangs grew longer, lusting for blood, "For now, I'll act as a dragon. But I'll try being an elf later,"
