Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Things seemed to go towards the direction of the dark forces once again. Amera tried to keep up and do all she could, but this wasn't even close enough.

She wasn't the only one here doing her best, everyone else was exerting their best abilities and tried to stop the dark angel mage from executing his plan.

However all they could achieve was just to stop any leader from going inside that zone. It seemed a small feat to accomplish but it meant at least they got enough time till the activation of that nasty portal.

"Damn it!" Amera gritted her teeth while watching the ground getting demarcated more in blackness. She saw what they all did was a failure, and no matter how hard they tried that dark angel mage was simply outsmarting them.

"Woosh!"

"Woosh!"

"Woosh!"

Just to add more to such a bad situation, portals that kept pouring out dark forces started to change color all of sudden. Instead of mages and monsters, clan leaders and big shots started to show themselves in batches.

The dark clans who supported this quest had finally moved their leaders to join this fight. At such a desperate timing, this simple move came to change everything.

"You are all dead now, hahaha!" the dark angel mage seemed to be relieved by this addition of those big names. Just by their presence, the entire world kept shaking as if it wasn't tolerating their brutal energy.

"What should we do now?" Nicole came and stood by Doaf's side as well as Amera and the crow. The four stood there watching these big names whom they always memorized by heart.

"How come they appear here?" Doaf gritted his teeth while clenching the two hilts of his swords tightly out of his rage and desperation.

"They must have put this world on top of their priorities," Nicole said as she knew how her love selected this world before as an important asset.

But it seemed now that the world held much more significance for those dark forces than even Aemie did.

"We can't stand against them," the crow bitterly said, "but I won't let such a chance slip by. Despite being leaders and big shots, they are still limited by the laws of this world."

"Don't get your hopes so high," Amera poured cold water on his enthusiasm, "if we forced them too far they would simply retaliate and destroy this entire world into shreds."

The others could only have a change in their faces when they heard her words. It was a simple and yet harsh truth. Those leaders were able to exert their full strength together, turning this world into a puff of smoke in a blink of an eye.

"So we should let them have it their way then?" the crow yelled in anger while the leaders stood their places motionless.

"Why aren't they attacking yet?" Nicole suddenly asked.

"What? Are you so impatient and eager to die now?" The crow was already nervous and about to lose his cool. He wanted to throw his life away while trying to get a few of those leaders with him and with his men as well.

These leaders were the leaders of the enemy's biggest forces. Killing even one was worth the lives of him and his men. No one would hesitate to do it once he gave the order, but no one on his friends' side would support his suicidal attempt.

"No, she is right," Doaf suddenly squeezed his eyes, "they just appeared and released their auras without moving a finger. Shouldn't they move to the portal and secure it first? Why standing just underneath the portals?"

While they were thinking about these words, Amera suddenly moved.

She was known as being impulsive, preferring talking with fists than words. And now she decided not to think and simply test things out using her fists as well.

"Stop!" Doaf hurriedly shouted, trying to stop her but he was too late. She already turned into a beam of light while merging with her spear. She headed directly towards a group of those leaders.

"Pathetic!" a sudden shout came from the dark angel mage before a thick pillar of black lightning descended over her head, cutting off her path.

"I'm not that push over, moron!" and yet Amera seemed to anticipate such a move as she simply shifted her direction at the last second, evading that disastrous attack.

The lightning hit nothing but empty air while Amera finally reached one of those leaders.

"I bet you are all fake!" she sneered while trying to encourage herself for such a move. Going against any single one of them was like going against her grandmaster Aemie.

It was simply a suicidal move, however this was the only way she could uncover the veil over this trick of the dark angel mage.

She believed he was deceiving everyone, using the fear of the powerhouses appearing here without actually being here.

Their names were enough to scare away any light forces, and that just simply looked a bit fishy.

Why would all of them gather up here without a purpose? Were they all free or were they really that interested in this world?

She also once heard from Arthur that he met one of those grandmasters, his godfather, and he couldn't get in here or else the world would explode.

So how come dozens of these scary names appear here out of nowhere and the world looks simply fine?

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

Just as she went through one after another, each leader exploded in a cloud of smoke. They were all fake, they were all empty clones made out of pure smoke.

"This... Damn you dark angel clan mage!" The crow couldn't help but raise his feathered head and scream in anger before he suddenly vanished.

The next moment he appeared on top of a group of leaders where he started his own barrage of attack.

"Let's not let him have all the fun," Nicole laughed while Doaf still had his dark face.

This time it passed peacefully over their necks, but next time he wasn't sure if they could keep their necks intact.

He saw how scary it was to have such big names here. If this was simply a fluke that didn't mean the next time would be.

After all that nasty portal was getting more and more corporeal with each passing minute. Each wasted time here was a step closer to their demise.

And he just saw how ugly that demise would look like.
