57 Slaying a dragon

Mikax steadied his heart as he thought to himself how to manage this situation. He couldn't rely on force casting to get through this, it wasn't reliable enough. It came with a 5% chance for the spell to backfire on him for 7th-tier magic and under.

He would need at least 7th-tier to weaken the spells cast by the Dragon enough to deflect or tank the attacks. He really couldn't afford a risk like that in this battle. His new plan would have to be to buy time.

He knew Mellona wouldn't step in. Using her power to slay a being of this world could expose them all. That left him with 2 people he had to hope came to help him.

Zokar and Sekhmet. Till they came or he could figure out another plan he needed to focus.

"Impressive but if that is the best you can do then you should hand over the Goldhorn and die peacefully." Avesta the dragon spoke in his booming voice.
