Chapter 705 The Road To The Shard (Part 5)
The dark shark headed toward the bone monster as it opened its jaw wide. The monster stared at the shark as though it were a harmless fish as it lashed out at the shark with its massive claws. However, the shark just bit off the monster's arm with a large chunk of space.
The monster was shocked for a moment and during that time the shark bit off one of the monster's hind paws.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
The monster lost its balance as it fell to the ground with a loud rumble and a massive cloud of dust that rose up.
"Well, it's in the way, isn't it?" Wain muttered with a slight smile on his face before swinging his arm.
At his will, the shark took a deep breath as all the dust headed toward it and disappeared into the massive mouth.
"Huh, that turned out to be easier than I thought." Wain grinned as he snapped his fingers.
The shark headed toward the monster, but suddenly the darkness dissipated and blood rushed out of Wain's mouth as he fell to one knee.
'Wain, you overdid it.' Gladius said in a serious voice, 'Maybe those bones weren't Dragon's, but earlier you couldn't even scratch them, so now you've reached your limit.'
'Fuck... I guess you're right,' Wain muttered internally as he wiped the blood from his mouth.
'You just need to get my shard out, then that monster won't have the strength to attack you anymore.' Gladius uttered in a confident manner.
'Well, then I'll do as you say. With only two limbs, it can't do anything to me.' Wain said inwardly before turning into a dark flash.
Wain had almost no energy left which made him feel exhausted, but his physical performance was a little affected, so he reached the monster in just a few seconds.
Whoooooooooosh.
Wain jumped over the bones to the monster's head and stood on its nose, right in front of the dark shard that was in the center of its forehead. There was a powerful eerie aura emanating from the shard and a clear murderous intent.
"That shard doesn't seem to want to come back to you." Wain uttered with a calm look.
"Well, it tried to revive, but without me it's nothing more than a rare artifact, nothing special." Gladius said in a careless manner.
Tremble.
The monster tried to get up, but it was too heavy to hold on to only two paws, so Wain had no more obstacles.
Wain touched the shard as a powerful wave of energy passed through his body that headed straight for Gladius.
"Yeah... That's what we need." Gladius muttered in a satisfied voice, "Go get me the shard!"
Crackle.
Wain squeezed his hand around the shard.
"What...? Why isn't it working?" Wain frowned as his aura intensified.
Whooooooooosh.
Suddenly the monster's skeleton glowed brightly as a powerful pressure came over Wain that made him vomit blood again.
"Fuck! What's going on here?" Wain exclaimed while in disbelief as he tried to pull the shard out.
Roooooooooooaaaaaaarrrrrrr!!!
The monster roared furiously as waves of sound shook the magic circles and suddenly the monster jumped up.
"What the hell!" Wain shouted with a dazed look.
He hadn't expected the monster to be capable of this, so all he had to do was try to get the shard out.
The monster pierced the ground with its massive body, the caves, and the mazes of the ruins, so after a few seconds they were outside as for a moment the monster hovered in the air.
"Bastard! I wanted to do this quietly! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Wain exclaimed with a furious look as for a moment he activated a Beyond.
Dark energy enveloped the shard as several cracks appeared on the monster's skull and Wain was finally able to pull it out.
Whoooooosh.
As soon as the shard was in Wain's hand, it headed toward Gladius as the monster's massive body collapsed to the ground. Bones shattered to the sides, destroying the ruins around it.
Wain fell next to the skull, leaned against it, and sighed.
"Well, at least we made it, didn't we?" Wain asked with a slight smile on his face as he raised his hand.
"Yeah. That's what it takes. I'm about twice as strong." Gladius uttered in a satisfied manner as the seal on Wain's palm shone brightly.
A long, dark sword appeared in his hand. Outwardly, Gladius had changed little, save for the appearance of several runes on his blade, which emitted powerful energy.
Whooooooosh.
The occasional breeze rippled Wain's black hair as a shadow fell over him.
"Well, well, I was wondering what kind of an unusual human got into Dragon World. Turns out you have such unusual powers." The man said with a smirk on his face.
The man had gray skin, two long horns, white hair, and purple eyes as well as two massive black wings behind his back. He wore a simple dark robe that fluttered in the wind.
"Who are you?" Wain asked with a wary look.
"Oh, I've been watching you since you got here. You're pretty weak, so you couldn't spot me." The dragon said in an arrogant manner, "I was curious why a human came here, apparently you came for the shard, nothing wrong with that, so I was about to leave, but then you used that strange power..."
Step.
The dragon stepped forward, spread his wings, and with a wicked smirk said, "This power is dangerous and totally unique, I can't even see how great your potential is, so... don't hold it against me because for the good of the world I have to eliminate you."
At the same time, a powerful aura departed from the man as his arm was covered in white lightning and blurred.
Wain's pupils narrowed as he thrust his sword out in front of him. He managed to block the attack at the very last moment.
Whoooooosh.
The impact rippled through his entire body causing his face to twist in pain as it threw Wain back several hundred yards.
"Hmm? I couldn't break his sword? Damn, only one of the hundreds of Legendary Weapons can do that." Dragon uttered while shaking his head, "Well, it still won't make any difference."
