Chapter 19 | Rival

6 Months Later

The sky looked clear, but a few moments later the sun began to be covered by clouds, the arrival of a powerful being, namely, 2 Red Dragons in Aretha's Blue Dragon Territory.

"Why did you bring me here mom?"

The young girl with red hair that was similar to the beautiful woman next to her was the Humanoid Form of the two Red Dragons.

The young girl's name was Lilia she was a Wyrm-class Dragon, and next to her was her mother Catherine Ancient-class, just like the Blue Dragon Aretha.

Someone showed their presence before the 2 Red Dragons, That person was none other than Esther the Dryad.

"Enemy?!"

Lilia was in an attacking stance.

"Lilia, I told you to stay quiet"

Lilia was silent and looked down at her mother's words.

"Welcome Madam Catherine"

"It's been a long time, Esther, I didn't think the Dryad we saved had grown so big, so how does it feel to serve my Best Friend?"

The conversation between Esther and Catherine continued, Lilia only had a sullen face behind her, and because they were enjoying their time talking Lilia left because she didn't want to disturb, and entered Aretha's residence.

"Hmm, this place is so beautiful, more elegant than I thought, even the walls are made of gold?!!"

Lilia passed through a slightly open room, but a strong vortex came from the room.

"What is this strong vortex? Hmm it looks like someone is in the room"

Lilia peeked into the room, she saw a woman sitting facing forward (Meditation position) and her back was exposed so that the Dragon Tattoo on her back was visible.

"Excuse me are you, Blue Dr-"

Before finishing her words, the woman moved with lightning speed with the Moonlight Blade and Cosmos Sword. Yes, there was no mistaking that woman was Ina, who was a disciple of the Blue Dragon Aretha, but Lilia didn't know it.

"What does this mean?"

With her dragon hand, Lilia pushed back Ina's attack, making her jump a few meters back.

"[ Mana Blast ]"

A burst of Mana headed towards Lilia, but she didn't panic on the contrary she was happy.

"Hahaha, I've never heard of a Dragon using Mana Blast, interesting!"

The extremely powerful Mana Blast easily bounced upwards, making a hole in the roof.

The two of them started advancing so fast that their footprints were imprinted on the floor, Lilia with her scaly dragon arms and Ina wielding Dual Swords.

Until finally Lilia's attack hit Ina's waist, making her injured, and bleeding profusely.

"Why isn't the Wound closed? How can a Dragon like you not have Regeneration?"

"Who knows"

Ina used Sarashi covering her chest to cover the wound. Taking a deep breath Ina tried to enter Eternal Peace.

Her eyes turned golden and the aura around het changed. Using Buddha Step forward Lilia.

"What?!"

Lilia couldn't see the speed, Ina used Buddha Palm, and although Lilia managed to block it with both hands the pressure from this Technique was so strong that it slammed her into the wall.

"Urghhh!! What the hell is that?!"

"Shall we end it now?"

"Hehehe, I'm starting to like you! well let's end it"

Ina made a Dragon Arts [Dragon Wrath] stance. Creates a Dragon shadow behind her, coupled with Intense Killing that scares the enemy.

But the opponent is Lilia, a Wyrm Class Red Dragon, Lilia transforms into a Heavenly Dragon Body, which makes her magical energy increase drastically, of course in this state the Dragon Fear will always be active.

The pressure of magical energy filled the room, the two preparing for their final attack.

"[ Dragon-Arts [ Dragon Wrath - Ultimate ]"

"[Red Dragon Hellfire Blow]"

The two of them used up almost half of their Mana in the attack and it was about to cause a very powerful explosion to occur.

But before the two attacks collided, Catherine stopped both attacks with her bare hands.

"What?!"

"Mother?!!"

The two of them were pushed back by Catherine.

"Okay you two are enough for the sparring, you can destroy my house"

Aretha came from the door with Esther.

"Mom why did you stop us?!"

Without thinking, Catherine hit Lilia's head.

"You stupid child, do you want to blow up my best friend's building? I hope you two don't mind if I consider your fight to be balanced, right?"

Catherine glanced at Ina at the last sentence.

"I don't mind it, forgive me for attacking Miss Lilia so suddenly"

"Ah no problem, I'm the one who should apologize for bothering you"

The two of them had a long conversation.

"Looks like you two are already getting along, huh? How about we move to a better place to chat?"

They moved to a beautiful garden, Catherine and Aretha sat on a bench enjoying the tea Esther provided.

Lilia and Ina strolled around the garden and chatted.

"Aren't you a Dragon?!"

"Yes"

"Then could you possibly be a dragon slayer?"

Lilia Dragon Fear activated.

"Of course not"

"Although you are indeed a true dragon slayer it is impossible to absorb a dragon heart, it is hard to believe that someone could do it"

"Well, by the way, your mother is very strong huh, I wonder if Miss Catherine fights Master who will win"

"The Mainland may be in chaos if that happens, I just can't imagine that"

"Hahaha you're right"

"By the way, I want to see your sword"

"Hooh? looks like they caught your attention"

Ina gave her two swords to Lilia.

"Could this be?! Moonlight Blade?! I really can't lift it!"

Lilia immediately became enthusiastic about the Moonlight Blade that Ina was using.

"That's right, do you know something?"

"Of course, this is the best sword made by the collaboration between Dwarves and Elves, this sword is rumored to have the Moon Spirit inside which is still sleeping"

"Moon Spirit?"

"Yes, Moona the Moon Spirit"

"The one who absorbed my Mana back then...was her?"

"It seems so, to awaken the Moon Spirit sleeping in this sword you have to give it Mana, I don't know how much but it seems you are aware of its existence"

"Yes...."

"This sword of yours...Where did you get it from?"

While raising the Cosmos Sword.

"Oh, this is a forged sword My friend, she is a Dwarf, she said the metal used to forge this sword came from a meteor"

"Meteor? makes sense, if you use an ordinary sword with Moonlight Blade the ordinary sword you wield will be destroyed.

Because Moonlight Blades have a strong pressure when used, and the reason why Cosmos Swords don't shatter is because they have Metal from the same place that is space"

"I see, I also feel that these two swords are very compatible with each other..."

Meanwhile in the conversation between Catherine and Aretha.

"So my friend Aretha, what are you planning with that girl?"

"Purification"

"?!! is the Spirit King starting to make decisions against mankind?"

"No, the Demonic Emperor and the Demonic God planned that"

"They crazy bastard looks like they planning on taking over the human world"

"That's right, it requires a body that can accommodate their strength. This kid is so perfect, the Wind Spirit King will take over her body when that happens"

"Sylph? is she against refining?"

"I don't know, I'm not sure either."
