My System Academy

Chapter 83 Retaliation (2)



A few minutes before the cracks appeared in the skies…

Arahon arrived in front of the hundreds of thousands of magical beasts that Harrtugg Naaw rallied.

His magmatic hydralisks hissed in disdain upon laying their eyes on the prey. They were no less than ants in front of the hydralisks' power.

Arahon raised his hand, signaling them to attack.

The hydralisks roared and descended the mountain. Lava continuously leaked out of their monstrous bodies, forming an appearance that the mountain was experiencing a magma eruption.

The snow instantly vaporized, alongside the beasts who foolhardily stood in place not until the lava arrived and consumed them.

When the hydralisks caught up, they simply slid on the ground, trampling over the small ants that dared to stand in their way. Even the 5-meter tall bisonic trampler could only stare in horror before being crushed into meat paste.

A large white-furred ape tried to fight back, punching the rocky nose of a hydralisk. Annoyed, it opened its mouth and devoured the white-furred ape in whole.

The heroic attempt of that ape ignited their hopeless bravado and followed its actions. They attacked the hydralisk's body on all sides, thinking that they could get away with it scot-free.

Arahon shook his head, "There's a reason why their bodies are made of molten rock and lava! You better get out of there before my pet is angry!"

The hydralisk grumbled and expanded its body to twice its previous size. This forced the molten rocks to disperse from one another.

The creatures were stunned when the hydralisk screamed and spewed balls of lava from every inch of its body.

A large area was affected, creating a pool of lava for the hydralisks to merrily swim.

Arahon grinned side-to-side, thinking that this show of might would finally bring their bravado to a halt and force them to retreat.

Unfortunately, his plans were thwarted when a 30-meter white-furred ape descended from the sky and smashed the center body section of one of the magmatic hydralisks. The ape then grabbed the two separated body parts and pummeled the hydralisk from head to tail.

It wasn't long until the hydralisk crumbled and died.

The ape roared in victory. Thumping on the pool of lava and splashing it away from his body.

Arahon didn't get angry, however. It was a normal occurrence since he only used those hydralisks to try and force the small ones to go away. Against a king-level beast like that huge white-furred ape, it would need four of them to be at a standstill.

Arahon closed in on the edge of the mountain cliff, observing the ape who was wreaking havoc upon his summoned monsters.

'This otherworldly aura filled with insanity and the urge to destroy everything. There is no doubt this ape is corrupted by demonic essence.'

No wonder these beasts were acting aggressively out of nowhere.

'Ah, please don't make it that Harrtugg Naaw was also afflicted by this as well.'

Arahon stared above and closed his eyes. What a long day this was going to be. After pondering for a short while, he felt the ground shake in distress.

Arahon saw the ape standing in front of him, knuckling its arms in preparation for another brawl.

"Oh, you wanna fight?!", Arahon imbued both his fists with divinity and immediately punched the arrogant ape.

Golden light flashed on impact, radiating towards the insides of the ape before it was knocked unconscious. The 30-meter figure rolled down the mountain like a boulder, killing the beasts who were on their way to the top.

"Hmph!", Arahon snorted.

He had met some arrogant beasts back in the days and whenever he did, he would give them a taste of raw dragon power. This hobby of his wasn't going to change anytime soon.

In fact, Arahon was longing for more to come.

And fortunately, for him, it did.

The wind surged as a king-level dire swirl eagle swept past Arahon's figure and tried to slice him using its sharp white glacial feathers.

He lifted his right hand and grasped its right-wing, almost ripping the eagle into two due to it flying at sonic speed.

Arahon tightened his grip on the eagle's wing before throwing it away in the direction where a large glacial scorpion suddenly popped out of the ground.

Despite the eagle's shriek, the glacier scorpion was caught by surprise and the two collided. The latter accidentally injected the bird with fatal frostal poison.

The poison paralyzed its senses and it lay motionless on the ground.

"What a bunch of idiotic beasts you are!". Arahon mocked and imbued his draconic arms with divinity.

Golden lights flashed again and the two suffered the same fate as that white-furred ape from before.

"Grr!"

A growl gathered Arahon's attention. There was a bear half the height of that ape yet it was covered in thick frostal ice on its entire body.

The frostal ice armor squirmed around as if it was a living organism. Arahon was disgusted by this and instantly dashed towards the bottom of the frostal polar war bear's stomach.

The bear couldn't react on time and its hairs stood on end. It knew that something bad was about to happen.

Flames surged out of Arahon and quickly expanded outwards.

"Divine Flame Burst!"

The flames exploded in point-blank range relative to the frostal polar war bear. It propelled the king-level beast high into the sky.

Its arms flailed helplessly before realizing the absence of the thick frostal ice armor it was so proud of. The bear's mouth opened wide, providing Arahon the opportunity to hit its dumb and disoriented face.

He sent the bear to the peak of the mountain and crushed the entire thing. The bear was sent rolling down to the other side.

Arahon landed on the ground and sensed a strong aura emanating behind him.

"Arahon Agui, what business do you have in my territory, you bastard?!"

The familiar cold voice rang in Arahon's ears. He turned around and basked at the enormous dragon figure of Harrtugg Naaw, the divine frost dragon.

"To stop your madness, Harrtugg Naaw.", Arahon replied, "It seems like you have grown inept, my dear old friend."

His red eyes glared, "To think that you would easily succumb to the demonic essence of the Otherworld."

"I thought us divine beasts, with our historical lineage of ancestors raised by the Heavenly Magic Academy, you could've at least offered a fight."

Arahon's body slowly enlarged, transforming back into his original form one body part at a time.

"But no, you failed. Miserably at that."

"No wonder the academy master didn't bother to approach you. You are one incompetent and ungrateful bastard!"

Arahon's transformation ended. His body was larger and longer than Harrtugg Naaw's, featuring an almost unimaginable size of 600 meters and wings that extended twice his body length.

Harrtugg Naaw looked like a dragonling compared to him. He covered half of the mountain range just him alone.

Flames spewed out of Arahon's mouth, inviting Arahon to rebuke him. At the same time, it started a forest fire on the once deeply frozen forest and creeped its way towards Harrtugg Naaw's position.

With his spiky neck and chilling breath, Harrtugg Naaw threatened Arahon.

"I'm going to give you a chance to leave this place alive, flame dragon! If not, you're going to regret it for eternity!"

The skies darkened in response to Harrtugg Naaw's roar. A snowstorm was brewing, accumulating ice hail that swirled above the mighty frost dragon.

The forest fire was instantly extinguished.

Arahon cackled at Harrtugg Naaw's unfounded confidence.

"It seems that you have forgotten an important part of history, Harrtugg Naaw. That demonic essence has truly made you and your afflicted minions dumb to a great extent."

"Shut up, Arahon! Retreat or die!", Harrtugg Naaw wasn't going to have any of Arahon's lessons today.

"Then so be it, Harrtugg Naaw! Just so you know, unlike your divine frost dragon family, we, the divine flame dragons are amongst the three origins of flame!"

The entire ground covered by Harrtugg Naaw's body lit up intensely before a devastating earthquake erupted, collapsing the earth he was standing upon.

This destroyed the snowstorm and brought back warmth to the frozen lands.

The frost dragon lost his footing and tried to flap its wings but his reaction was too late. Several chains made of pure elemental flames strangled his entire body and pulled him closer to a pool made of boiling magma.

Enraged, Harrtugg Naaw emitted an intense freezing aura in order to freeze the damn chains enveloping him.

Arahon predicted this and pre-emptively launched an attack.

"Meteoric Cataclysmic Firefall!"

Arahon's spell caused a widespread disturbance over the entire world of Aludia.

Archmages and radiant knights alike succumbed to fear at the might of such a powerful spell.

And the one who took the most pressure was no other than Elder Flock who was a hundred kilometer away from all of this chaos.

He dumbfoundedly stared high at the sky as molten rocks and lava gathered together and formed a meteor with a radius of 100-meters.

"Master, what the hell is that thing from above!", a feminine voice asked him in the middle of his contemplation about life and death.

The beautiful woman was unable to get any information from Elder Flock and began to pout. She then detected a spatial disruption near that meteor.

'Did someone just discreetly isolate a plane?'

Meanwhile, Harrtugg Naaw was facing the nightmare of his entire life. Or rather, it was the nightmare of his entire species.

Little did he realize that the red glint hidden deep on his eyes were long gone.

"Arahon, do you want to destroy this world alongside me?!"

"No, I'd like to destroy that ego that has corrupted both your body and mind, you fouled creature!"

Just as when Arahon forced the meteor to descend, the space shook intensely, generating cracks on the skies.

The disturbance lost him control of the meteor, causing it to shatter into fragments and fall down on the frost dragon with minimal force.

Harrtugg Naaw saw this as a chance and broke free from his restrictions. He roared intensely and flew quickly towards Arahon who was still dazed at the sudden event of space cracking.

The frost dragon opened its mouth and tried to bit the flame dragon's neck.

Arahon timely retracted his head out of Harrtugg Naaw's reach which caused the frost dragon to miss his mark and propel high into the sky.

Arahon ignored Harrtugg Naaw and calmly thought of the current situation.

'The space is cracking and the aura of the Otherworld is leaking out! Isn't their invasion a little bit early?!'

Arahon was no longer interested about the case of Harrtugg Naaw's affliction from the demonic essence. He was simply making a fool out of his old friend back then just as how he did in the past.

It was to also send a message to the demonic creatures to not mess up with his friend another time.

The chains he used to cripple the frost dragon's movements was imbued with divinity and burned all the demonic essence away. Coupled with the magma pool that was emanating divinity as well, Arahon was certain that that frost dragon was now clear of any corruption inside its feeble mind.

'I don't know what those cunning demonic creatures are planning, but…'

Terrifying roars of demon beasts resounded on the other side of the crack. Arahon felt nostalgic after not hearing them for a long, long time.

"Harrtugg Naaw, my friend. If you don't want to join my cause, I suggest you go back to your lair and cower under the safety of your frostal ice caverns."

The frost dragon landed beside him, snorting at Arahon's mocking remarks.

"Arahon, I'm not planning on thanking you any time sooner. However, you're right about one thing.", Harrtugg Naaw stared at the cracks widening at a slow pace, "We need to deal with this issue first and foremost."

"Do you have a plan?"

Arahon clicked his tongue.

"I know someone who might."
