14 – Full power loli
"Oooori-aaaa!!!"
Without thinking about anything I release all my magical power at once. It wasn't exaggerated to say that my aura literally turned into an erupting volcano. The stick part of Kaa and Laa vanished. As for the snakes themselves, they wrapped themselves around me, one head on each of my shoulder. I was constantly surrounded by a golden aura and my eye color changed to bright emerald.
A gust of wind no weaker than a tornado took them by surprise and then blew away quite a large number of them. I didn't have to worry about the minotaurs as long as they stay inside the crevice.
"What absurd magic power! Is she for real?"
The pain these guys inflicted on me… I will return it 1000 times.
I took my stance.
"Deep Sea Dragon… Vortex Arrow!"
Dragon Slaying magic. It's amongst the strongest types I know. And given that I also have All Element Mastery, this just means I can tap into all elemental dragon powers. Don't even think you can dodge this. I avoided those two big shots on purpose, but my arrow hit the army and engulfed a good chunk of it into a tsunami explosion.
"Not done. Purgatory Dragon… Maximum Inferno!"
Blazing scorching flames fell from the sky like stars constantly assaulting the battlefield and causing explosions that would make anyone shake in fear.
"Wha!? What's up with this power? Even the high grade defense armor that is supposed to cast a barrier is shredded like paper!"
No. You haven't tasted true despair yet. Your screams are not loud enough.
"Tempest Dragon… Hurricane of Destruction!"
Various tornados erupted from the sky. These weren't meant to simply lift stuff in the air. But to pierce anything they touch and slice flesh with pure air pressure. Not to mention oxygen is deprived inside, so if by miracle you survive, you will still suffocate.
"This can't be…"
Once the screams stopped, the skeleton and his crystal brother were left speechless.
"Impossible. Our army… 50 thousand troops… gone…"
"Tsk. I'm disappointed in myself. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't have resorted to my full power. This is so pointless. Even 20% would have been more than enough."
"You… you little bitch… all this for some crappy village!?"
"Little brother, don't…"
The warning came late. This guy fired from his body something that looked like a crystal spear. It was probably traveling faster than the speed of sound. But it was still slow in my eyes. I easily caught it and crushed it.
"Fool! Speed is my strong point! You're wide open! Whatever magic is surrounding shall be nullified now!!"
True, he did circle behind me. But I haven't lost sight of him for a second. He clenched his fist in a crystal like mace and and sent that strike towards me.
A shockwave was produced but I didn't flinch one bit.
"What!?"
"You call that speed? Please. You're nothing more than a mosquito. Would you get out of a mosquito's way if it came at you? No. You would simply swat it away."
I gently grabbed his hand. And when I say gently I actually mean that I crushed it and tossed him a few feet away. He does have some regeneration skills… but it's useless. I once again raised my hand.
"Don't look down on me! Magic has no effect on me!!"
"How wrong you are."
I wrapped my hand in flames. In a similar manner like back in the dungeon I swung it down like a sword. The flames traveled like a balde and made contact.
"I told it won't… Aaaargh!! It hurts!! It fucking hurts!! Aaaaa!!!"
Flames wrapped around his body for a brief moment. They then vanished, but his crystal body was visibly burnt.
"How… how is this possible?"
"Anti-magic is a simple principal. It does nullify magic, but only up to a certain extent. Don't think for a second that my mana can be restrained by something so trivial."
"Stay back…"
"As if."
I instantly closed the gap between us and thrust my palm into his chest. Then, just like glass he broke into thousands of pieces. One down, one left.
"What the hell are you? Can you perhaps really be the Goddess that village was praying to?"
If I was a Goddess I could have saved them. At this point, granting them revenge is all I can do. You took advantage of my absence and got on my nerves. I don't remember ever being this angry before. Wrath was fueling my resolve. I took one step after another towards the skeleton.
"Don't come closer! You dare raise your hand against me?"
This foolish girl. I am a lich king. Go ahead. Kill me if you want. I will just come back to life. And when you will be at your most vulnerable I will…
"It's useless. You won't be able to resurrect."
"!?"
"I will devour the very core of your soul. There's no return for you."
"Gah… get back. Skull Nightmare!!"
Various dark skull shadows erupted from his body and were heading for me. I see. Just like a lich, he intends to try and absorb the power of his opponent. What a stupid irony. I've had enough.
"Kaa, Laa… devour him."
As soon as I said those words, the 2 cobra heads on my shoulders rapidly grew in size and opened their large mouths. A purple tornado was formed. Just like a demon claw it violently grabbed his magic attack and devoured it in an instant.
"No… I can't fall here… I can't… my dream isn't… Hiyaaa!!"
His body was also dragged into the vortex and eventually faded away. It was over. I… killed all of them. But that didn't make me feel better at all. Not one bit. My heart is still bitter. And… my body… was getting heavy. My eyelids… we're closing… and I was getting sleepy. I feel on the ground and Kaa and Laa returned to staff form. And my consciousness drifted away.
