Chapter 53: 6 VS 1: That Is Fair... Or Not
"We are Axel's comrade! If you have a problem with him then you have a problem with us!"
That's... Cliche.
I don't care anyway since my teammates helped me escape and protected me from the attacks of the dragon princess.
How did she become strong? I remembered that I had defeated her father not a long time ago but I could not defeat her?
{It's because the seal to her strength was released. Well, partially released and not completely. I would be able to become as powerful as her if my power was released even if it's a thousandth of my power.}
How did she even release her seal?
{How would I know? If I knew a method to release the seal then I would have done it a long time ago. She might have pleased the gods so that's why the seal placed on her was partially released.}
If it is about please gods, then I'm sure that it has something to do with her becoming a hero which I'm not that sure considering I heard from the prophecy.
Well anyways, no prophecy was absolute so I guessed the prophecy had been tampered with by someone so the information mentioned in the prophecy was just the tip of the iceberg.
{If my daughter did become a hero, then it would explain why she became overpowered in a short amount of time. Her seal must have been partially released after she became a hero.}
As I was having a conversation with the dragon king, I was being protected by Zale from the attacks of Aileen while Aerin was beside me who was rapidly shooting arrows towards Aileen.
Mathew, Sophie, and Pedonar took the chances when Aileen exposed an opening whenever Aerin shot her arrows towards her to attack Aileen.
Mathew would have stolen Aileen's heart (literally) if he had no compassion towards Aileen but Mathew said to his teammates that she wasn't a demon so it's unnecessary to kill her.
He suggested only beat her up and make her surrender. Mathew was indeed a gentleman.
Sophie did not listen to what Mathew proposed and kept on fighting Aileen with the intent to kill.
After all, Sophie's battle prowess would rise another rank if she took her battle seriously and would increase another rank if she was planning to kill her opponent.
Pedonar fought Aileen with nothing more than a friendly battle.
Even though his life would be at stake if Axel died since the master and servant relationship made the servant die if the master had died.
Pedonar cast [Death Touch] towards Aileen to test his magic skill but was then prevented by Mathew since he said that it would probably kill her and if not shorten her lifespan.
[Death Touch] was a skill that allowed the caster to remove the lifespan of a target proportionate to the caster's potency on death magic.
The [Death Touch] skill would cost a tremendous amount of mana if the caster was not proficient with death magic and I could use it but with much more mana used to cast it than the mana used by Pedonar to cast it.
Sophie wielded her two daggers in both of her hands and applied [Poison] and [Paralysis] on it.
Sophie performed consecutive slashes towards Aileen while the latter had a hard time evading Sophie's attack since Sophie had a high speed than me and she was being attacked by Pedonar and Mathew while trying to dodge the magic arrows of Aerin.
Of course, dodging Aerin's magic arrows was futile since she had a 100% accuracy rate which allowed her to make her arrows homing if it would not hit her opponent which was even more unlikely since Aerin almost perfected the flaws of her archery.
Mathew often landed a slash on Aileen but the damage was negated because of Mathew's low attack stat and Aileen's high defense stat, so to Aileen, Mathew wasn't much of a problem but rather an annoyance.
Even though Mathew knew that Aileen felt annoyed by his attacks, he remained benevolent and didn't attack her using [Universal Steal].
Zale was beside me and he did help my teammates attack Aileen since he said that it was unfair to attack a being and win her against numbers.
Even though I disagree about his logic, I still could not help but thank him for blocking the attack of Aileen's [Dragon Breath].
{Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? Your teammates attacked my daughter while relying on numbers and my daughter was starting to lose her stamina and was getting exhausted.}
Nah, that's what you call the power of friendship.
{Power of friendship my *ss! More like the power of shamelessness!}
Oh, stop yabbering! I would not hurt your daughter that much since it was one of the perks of becoming my pet.
Though I'm not sure if it's the same as what my teammates had been thinking.
[You can perform healing magic, right?]
I can only perform [Minor Heal] which was the weakest healing magic. I can also perform [Recovery] which can only recover from fatigue or stamina loss and mental issues.
I'm sure your daughter needs this skill for therapy since she was too full of herself that after she got a fraction of her power, she went rampage against us heroes.
{My daughter is a kind girl. It's because of you, Axel that you made me your contracted pet.}
I don't think that's the case. I believe it's because she's corrupted by her newfound power and she tested her power against us.
{Bah! I don't care anymore! Just don't kill her. I'm going back to sleep}
After I was done chatting with the dragon king, I switched my gaze towards the battle of Mathew, Sophie, and Pedonar against Aileen.
Even though it's unfair to gang up on Aileen, it's still considered fair since she had that monstrous strength while they only had a month of training.
It's only been a month after we were summoned so we should stick together and defeat enemies with the power of friendship.
Pedonar enveloped his hands with demonic mana to form a claw and slashed it towards Aileen.
Their fight was getting nowhere. Even with the three of them against Aileen, they were still an equal match.
I signaled Aerin to halt her from shooting Aileen since I'm going to join the battle.
I had already recovered all of my mana and I don't believe that Aileen could withstand my space magic.
I activated [Dragon Wings] and then a pair of rainbow-colored wings appeared behind my back.
I flapped my wings at full speed which allowed me to appear in an instant in front of Aileen.
I cast [Black Hole] and a black hole appeared on my left hand.
I blasted the black hole towards the abdomen of Aileen which made her crash into the wall while she kept on rotating.
Damn! Even the [Black Hole] skill couldn't penetrate her defense. Maybe I should use the [Void] skill next.
I cast [Void] which made a black sword with sparkling dots appeared in my right hand.
The effect of [Black Hole] faded which allowed Aileen to step out of the wall where she crashed from.
Nonetheless, she was dizzy so she was trying to regain her composure which left an opening and allowed me to slash her wrist but it only left a small cut.
Aileen's defense was almost impenetrable and it must be because of her dragon scales which boosted her defense by several folds.
I harnessed the power of the winds to cover my body and improve both my defense and speed.
My speed went up by two-fold which allowed me to perform multiple slashes and cuts towards Aileen.
Even though it only inflicted a small cut on her body, thousands of small cuts were present on her body which proved how fast my speed was.
Since I'm only able to inflict a small cut on her, I tried to slash the small cut that I inflicted on her which made a deeper cut.
Blood dripped out from Aileen's body that was covered with cuts from my [Void] skill.
"Argh! Cough! Cough! You are strong and quite fast that even I couldn't keep up with you!"
Aileen cough out blood and spoke.
"I am indeed strong. If I had some time to prepare then I could have trapped you in my arrays. Unfortunately, I'm at a geographical advantage and an array would not be suitable to be constructed here."
"You can construct arrays?"
"Of course, I can easily construct low-tier arrays and an average amount of time to construct mid-tier arrays."
I ran and injected my mana in different locations. I formed a hand sign and then the places where I injected my mana had lit up.
The temperature suddenly rose and beads of sweat trickled on Aileen's face while my teammates were still fine despite the rise of high temperature.
"This array is called the Fire Territory. It can improve the fire magic of the one who constructed the arrays and could inflict a high temperature on the selected target. It cannot affect other individuals who weren't selected as the target of the array."
I cast [Explosive Fireball] which had the same size and temperature as the [Ruthless Sun] since its firepower was boosted.
I lifted the gigantic ball of fire on my left hand.
"Do you want to burn and become roasted dragon meat or become my slave?"
