Once I found out that the dragon had overwhelmed the fox and was about to obliterate it, I immediately rushed myself into the scene.

Luckily, I managed to get out of the dungeon as fast as I could and effectively blocked an exponentially enhanced Dragon Blast milliseconds before it hit the dying fox queen.

And right now, I am having a conversation with the dragon through the exchange of attacks in midair. I left Madam behind for her to recover her lost mana and life force.

I am clad in golden light, indicating the activation of Spirit Scathe, while the dragon envelopes itself in the ominous aura of Malignant Darkness.

"Dimension Slash!"

With a slashing wave of my left arm, I cast the most powerful offensive Space-Time Magic in my arsenal towards the hovering dragon, a spell I rarely perform.

A wide, white crescent-shaped wave was released from my slash, flying fast and diagonally toward the dragon. Once hitting the dragon's thorax, the wave effortlessly went through its magic-resistant scales like a ghost.

"?!"

After that wave passed the dragon's body, the lower sliced part of the dragon fell off. The dragon showed a bit of panic and hastily tried to reconnect its severed part.

Space-Time Magic Level 10 spell, Dimension Slash, is an immensely powerful attack spell that rends the fabric of space and ignores any magical defense.

Moreover, all the matter that the spell makes contact with will be sent to a specified location where the caster wants to throw it, for example, a pool of boiling lava.

After the wave passed through the dragon, the twelve inches of its body that had crossed paths with my spell were sent to a certain volcano in the Southern Continent.

Since I activated the Spirit Scathe, its soul has been sent as well. But because of the Immortal unique skill, the separated soul of the dragon has been restored.

It took a few seconds before nerves sprouted from its two halves and intertwined. The upper half pulled the lower half, and the dragon fully restored anew.

"WHAT DID YOU DO, YOU BASTARD?!"

"It's not your business, flying lizard."

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" The dragon got enraged by my provocation and launched itself at me, then I released another wave of Dimension Slash.

"Tch." I clicked my tongue after the dragon evaded my spell, then teleported myself to get some distance. The dragon must have been cautious of the Dimension Slash.

"DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU COULD ESCAPE FROM ME?!"

Once I looked back, the dragon had already shifted its way and rushed forth to my spot at a speed that was supposed to be impossible for its ginormous mass.

Now that I think about it, the dragon still had the superior raw speed even after my evolution. It was a good thing that I brought up the fight a few kilometers above the surface.

"Shit!"

Even though I had cast Aerial Maneuver upon myself, the dragon still had the upper hand. Due to that reason, I activated Godspeed, which greatly enhanced my flying speed.

"Whoa!"

As I am flying southwards, the dragon shoots a Dragon Blast towards me, not only once but once every five seconds. But all of those were easily sensed and evaded.

So Dragon Blast is not a problem as long as I calculate its future trajectory and maintain my reaction time and speed with the Godspeed.

The dragon really is persistent. It is following me no matter where I go. Throwing its beam along with it, a portion of the forest was destroyed.

Since it has come to this and I cannot let the forest be destroyed any further, I decided to bring our fight to the desert at the south of the forest.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

After minutes of supersonic flight, I ultimately reached the deserted part of the Northern Continent, a portion of the continent that is near this planet's equator.

This will be the place where the dragon and I will fight. I chose this place as our fighting ring since this place is almost void of life.

Since we are in a desert, the temperature here is sure dry and hot, but not as hot as the scorching deserts of the Southern Continent. Right now, the sun has set at a certain point, so the temperature is not quite high.

The life here is as dry as this desert, desolate, and barren. But there are things that are capable of living in this harsh biome, such as cacti and desert-type monsters.

I had surveyed this desert before and discovered there are a few settlements being established here. But most of them are situated in coastal areas of the desert, very far from our battlefield.

"Now then..."

Once I landed on the sand, I looked back and waited for the dragon to arrive. The dragon has been flying at the speed of Mach 2 and was left behind. But it is still following me and will reach my location within a minute.

"Okay. Hop."

After waiting for a while, the dragon gave me a warm welcome, just a single Dragon Blast, which I did not accept. Instead, I send the dragon the same.

I positioned myself in a lunging pose and gestured my hands as if holding an invisible basketball. Then I started to gather energies between my palms and waited for the perfect timing.

Once the dragon reached a certain distance, I threw my palms forward and formed a double fang fist, releasing the Dragon Blast I have been doing like a certain move in a certain anime.

"Ha!!!"

The dragon was left dumbfounded upon seeing my Dragon Blast in midair and was hit by it. Of course, you would shock in disbelief if someone was using your exclusive ability.

There's something I noticed as I was casting magic: I consumed less mana than usual. It is not the effects of evolution, though; it is because I modified my dragon blood into an ancient one.

"HOW DID YOU DO IT, YOU PUNY HUMAN?! ARE YOU COPYING MY ABILITIES?!"

When the Dragon Blast subdued, the dragon stiffened and yelled. Since it's basically my first time using it, the power wasn't as potent as the dragon's.

The dragon pushed itself through Wing Blast and furiously accelerated its advance. There's no way I could take its unimaginable momentum head-on, so I have to step back and levitate in the air.

"Level 10 Desolation Lands. Level 5 Quicksand!"

As soon as the dragon crashed on the sand, I immediately cast a Compound Magic spell to sink the buried dragon deeper. But before that, I cast a soul-damaging Earth Magic spell upon myself for better output.

I cast it quite wide since widening the spell would hasten the sunken speed, also because of the gigantic size of the dragon itself. The dragon tried to struggle but doing it hasten its descend.

In just a matter of seconds, the dragon has been swallowed by the desert.

"Okay. Level 6 Quicklime!"

I cast another Compound Magic spell and applied it to my previous spell. The quicksand changed hue and texture and went through a chemical reaction.

A moment later, the quicksand quickly dried, and the sand eventually turned to concrete, sealing the entire dragon within. But as expected, it wasn't enough to hold the dragon, even though it damaged its soul.

(Its Immortal unique skill really is annoying. This is why I don't want to provoke and confront it.)

I am fighting the dragon right now since a certain vixen trespassed in someone's yard. Once this issue is over, if possible, I would like to have a deep talk with her before giving my punishment.

Crack.

As I am thinking about the routines I would like to do with a certain someone, the concrete floor made a crack and broke into pieces. From the rubble, the dragon raised itself by climbing its tomb.

◆◇◆

"NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, YOU COULD NEVER KILL ME. ALL YOUR EFFORTS ARE FRUITLESS. [STAY.]"

"?!"

After the dragon recite the last word, the whole body of Raphael suddenly went froze. He is not covered with ice, but his body won't listen to the commands of his mind.

Eventually, he realized that he is under the influence of the black dragon's Level 7 Dark Magic spell, Malediction, a curse spell that forcefully takes control of the targets body.

The spell only works if the target contains half of the caster's soul essence. That was the reason why the dragon did not cast Malediction on the fox and ultimately invoke the spell on Raphael, whose existence is less than half that of the dragon.

"TCH!"

But for some reason, Raphael suddenly broke the spell and managed to free himself from the curse. Overcoming the Malediction is not impossible, but it is not as early and easy as Raphael.

The dragon had enough of the humiliation and decided to end it in one shot using its instadeath move, Dark Magic Level 10: Gaze of the Abyss.

"WHAT?!" The dragon twisted its face in disbelief when its target was still hovering in the air.

Gaze of the Abyss is an immensely deadly gaze that literally shatters the target's mind, killing the target in an instant. The spell is virtually impossible to block and would work no matter how willful the target is.

The dragon was certainly capable of killing the fox but didn't use it since the dragon wanted to lure the human. But the Gaze of the Abyss doesn't seem to work on Raphael.

And as the dragon gazed at Raphael, the dragon felt that the abyss gazed back at it.
