Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

Once detonated, the most destructive part of the spell, which is the fireball, only occurs for a very, very short amount of time at an unimaginably fast rate.

After that hellish heat, a destructive and powerful scorching shockwave will blast and burn everything around. Even S-class monsters weren't exempted from the blast if they were as near as eight kilometers from ground zero.

But the targets of the black dragon, the fox, and the human disappeared without a trace. They were not atomized by its spell; rather, they are currently sixty kilometers away, safe and sound.

The dragon had estimated that if the human used his full speed to attack the dragon before, the dragon would conclude that he couldn't escape from its spell.

But instead of getting permanently deleted from the world, he managed to escape with the fox and transport themselves to another place.

Not only was the spell missed, but the dragon also suffered inconveniences such as depleted mana, spiritual damage, and severe internal hemorrhage for overusing its own body.

But its Immortal unique skill maintained that its body stood inside a three kilometer wide and five hundred meter deep crater, which was the center of a charred and burning forest.

"NONSENSE! HOW DARE A MERE HUMAN COULD HUMILIATE ME?!"

The dragon was displeased by the results and fueled itself with rage. Its pride as a dragon got shattered once again, and its pent-up anger that the dragon is piling has raised up.

From its original plan to get rid of the fox who trespassed in someone's yard, it changed to the disposal of the fox and the human. The dragon just suffered its first defeat last month and was humiliated by a mere human just now.

Whoosh!

Burned dust fogged the center of the crater when the dragon flapped its wings. Though the dragon flickered its wings weakly, its gigantic size made it create a strong gust of wind.

With a single use of its Wing Blast, the dust thickened before the dragon soared to the sky, approaching its targets.

◆◇◆◇◆◇

Fixing her eyes northward, the Celestial Fox is gazing at the horizon. Beyond that ocean of tall trees was an unnatural vista of an incredibly tall mushroom-shaped cloud, so high that it literally reached the heavens.

It's her first time seeing that kind of magic. It was so powerful and full of destruction, yet she found it beautiful and mesmerizing, as if she felt like a moth that is instinctively allured by the warmth of a lamp.

She understood that getting near it would totally erase her from existence, but she got stunned by the sheer power of the spell and didn't move from her spot. It's just too lucky of her that Raphael still have care for her.

The intention of the giant silver fox was not to look at the bizarre view but to wait for the arrival of the artist who created that beautiful landscape. The one who detonated a catastrophic art, the Dark Ancient Dragon.

"THERE YOU ARE, FOX. WHERE IS THAT PUNY HUMAN?"

"..."

"HMPH." The dragon was displeased and cast a spell at the fox.

Three ten meter long Dark Magic Level 4 Black Spears are being conjured around the black dragon, which will rapidly shoot them at the fox, who refused to answer its inquiry.

The dragon just lost a massive amount of its mana and recovered little by little. Throwing low-level spells is the best thing the dragon could do for its state.

The silver fox quickly jumps into the air, avoiding the black spears that are aimed directly at her. Once the spears missed and embedded themselves in the ground, she began her attack.

All the ten bushy tails of the fox shone with a golden glow. As if replying to the black dragon's black spears, the silver fox shoots two speared spells of five elements towards the dragon.

Level 4 Fire Lances of fire, Level 5 Icicle Spears of water, Level 5 Wind Spears of wind, Level 5 Rock Spears of earth, and Level 5 Electrospear of lightning.

There are two spears for each element, and each of them is targeting the hovering dragon. But the dragon had a simple response to the fox.

"HM."

A single pitch-black, opaque circle, around the diameter of a hundred meters, was conjured in front of the dragon, completely obstructing the massive figure of the dragon from the vision of the fox.

But the spell the dragon had cast wasn't just an ordinary barrier. Once the multi elemental spears touched the Level 5 Void Barrier of dark magic, the spears were absorbed by the void.

The purpose of the Void Barrier is not to block magic spells but rather to absorb them. It's like a 2-dimensional black hole that absorbs mana once in contact and could be used as physical defense because of its durability.

"..."

But the spears are just for distraction, feints to hide the attack from the dragon's attention. Looking above, the dragon saw a massive object fall directly at its spot, a massive rock.

That five hundred meter rock was the spell the fox had cast a little bit earlier before the spears, the Earth Magic Level 10 Meteor.

A destructive spell purposefully designed to be dropped several kilometers above the target. But the caster needs to accurately and precisely calculate the dropping point. It would be a big mess if the spell missed.

Once the meteor reached an altitude of two kilometers above the ground, the dragon pointed its snort toward the sky and opened its mouth. A few seconds later, the Dragon Blast has been unleashed, targeting the falling rock.

With just a Dragon Blast, the beam of light hit the meteor and caused it to explode. The meteor was smashed into pieces, and the fragments showered down on the forest.

"HA HA HA!" The dragon laughed then landed on the surface, unbeknownst that it had been falling into the fox's trap.
