Fantasy System-Chapter 262: Calamity Black Dragon

A burst of QI erupted in the battlefield and a pillar of darkness connected the earth and the sky. No-b lost focus for a mere second, and the hand holding his enemy flew in the sky. Ed was now free from his clutches, but his anger towards him hadn't subsided yet. His rage burned inside of him, and his eye never parted from No-b. A moment of silence ensued, which was broken by the anger filled shout of the herculean man.

No-b ground his teeth and retreated back to Sarin's side and demanded, "Ask your little pet to heal me as well!"

"And why should I do that? You intrude upon my battle, and ask for my help? Aren't you ashamed?" Sarin said with a smile. "You should take care of your own wounds, little chameleon."

No-b looked furious but decided better than to push his luck against Sarin. He held out his spatial ring finger, which was luckily not attached to his severed arm, and withdrew a couple of items. He quickly ate the pills and drank the potions, all while attaching a plant like substance on his stump. His flesh started to grow, faster than the eye could follow. It was back as new, but from No-b's appearance, it was clear that it cost him quite a lot.

Back at the pillar of darkness, Gobuta jumped up and flew into the sky, standing next to Ed in an instant. Behind him was the deceased body of one of Sarin's subordinates, buried in the abysmal pillar. He made short work of his enemy once he noticed the Kraken.

Gobuta looked at Ed expectantly and said, "I want him! I decided that the first one will be him!"

Ed took his eyes off No-b, looked at Gobuta and said, "Go for it. I'll make sure they don't interrupt you."

Gobuta's face lit up along with his dark tattoos as he shot toward the Kraken. Sarin wanted to interrupt him, as he feared for his Avatar, but a slash had interrupted him.

Ed attacked him using his Space magic, and Gobuta had already started fighting against the Kraken. Ed contacted his system secretly and asked, "Can he make it his own? Even if it's only an Avatar?"

[The Avatar is the remaining soul imprint forcefully taken by a cultivator. As long as he 'kills' it, I'll be able to scan the soul and retrieve all the important information, thus making a card for Gobuta.]

Ed's face revealed a smile as he received the system's answer. No-b was already back in the sky and attempted to attack Ed, while Sarin was sitting back, watching his Avatar fight against the Ogre.

No-b was pushed away by Ed's KI, as he charged up to the maximum. His golden KI and Ren aura fused together and continued to enhance one another. The flux of aura continued to rise and grow as Ed powered up further and further. Then, like a meteor, he crashed into No-b. His black katana penetrated the man's chest, nearly missing his heart. No-b panicked and retreated quickly. He could feel that his lung was punctured, but had no time to worry about it. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

'How?! How come he's faster and stronger than before?!' he wondered. Of course, he had no idea how Ed was able to grow stronger by killing his enemies.

Back at the ground, Sarin was about to make a move when he noticed his Kraken falling back, however, the ground around him froze up, his legs included. He looked up and gazed at Emilia with a non-interested look.

"You should know that you are no match for me," he said. "Go away, or you will die, like your mother."

"I don't believe you'll be able to kill me. I daresay I'm better protected than you," Emilia answered with a smile. However, almost instantly after, a purple smoke erupted out of Sarin's hand; it enveloped Emilia.

"So be it," he said while turning around, certain of his victory. An ice blade emerged from within the smoke and attacked him, but he was able to dodge it just in time. He looked back and noticed a barrier surrounding Emilia, which protected her from his strongest poison. The battier soon waned and disappeared, leaving only Emilia's untouched body.

Emilia discarded a piece of jewelry, all while withdrawing a second one from her spatial ring. Ed had mass manufactured protection jewelry in order to protect all of his friends from fatal attacks. She started to hold off Sarin, while Ed's monsters and the Sword Sect members finished off the remaining Poison sect minions.

Ed was locked in air combat against No-b. Although he powered up to the max, he was still weaker than his enemy. Ed was holding him off using his willpower only, and his Berserk skill which fueled every strike.

Ed, however, still had some trump cards under his belt. He retreated back, took a deep breath, and looked at No-b. He withdrew all three of his swords and equipped them. Ed activated his Shunpo and Spectral Shadow Steps to their maximum capability, and along with his Space magic teleportation, he managed to plug in the weakness that his super speed gave him.

No-b was unable to handle the speed at which Ed attacked him with, and quickly, his whole body was covered by injuries. Blood dripped from his wounds, but the intense heat generated from the collisions of the two's energies vaporized it before it hit the ground.

Even with his super speed, Ed didn't manage to inflict a serious wound. He knew that this was unavoidable since to kill No-b he needed to charge up an attack, but it wasn't possible. Thus, his plan was to weaken No-b until he was unable to fight back.

No-b, however, had his own trump card. His muscles hardened up until they turned into steel. His skin turned dark red, and, gradually, it grew tougher. The more Ed attacked it, the stronger it grew until it sounded like his swords clashed against metal. Ed retreated back, as he noticed how No-b's QI was burning inside of him. It was clear that he wasn't able to hold on for too long.

No-b withdrew a small round item, which Ed recognized as a teleportation device.

"You won't escape!" he shouted.

"Don't worry, I don't plan to go away," No-b responded. "I'm calling in a slave."

As the ball was crushed inside of his hand, Ed felt a distortion in space. Above No-b, a pitch black being appeared. Over one hundred meters long, a body hulking with muscles, surrounded by black scales darker than the night. It had four limbs and a pair of bat-like wings protruded out of its back. Its claws seemed to twist the air that it grabbed on to while its wings' flutter caused tornadoes.

It growled and released its QI into the wind.

WarGreymon looked up in a hurry as it noticed the figure. It seemed to call out to him, and his two 'Dramon Killers' vibrated. He quickly abandoned his weakened enemy and flew into the sky, right next to Ed, as Sieg finished off the leftover enemy and turned it into a zombie.

"Ed! Let me fight it!" WarGreymon said.

However, Ed was too busy staring at an all too familiar screen that appeared in front of him.
