My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer-Chapter 280 The Resounding Voice In The Soul
As soon as Meredith and Wanney started running towards a large rock that was near them, the giant dragon's eyes
followed them.
The pair of horns on top of the dragon's head glowed for a brief instant as it opened its mouth. In the next second, a long blast of dark energy began to spew from the monster's mouth toward the fleeing duo. Dragons were too proud creatures to let victims escape unharmed.
Luke propelled himself forward with speed, and hit the dragon in the jaw with an explosive punch, in a move so fast that even the dragon could not predict it.
Luke's blow was so powerful that it stopped the dragon's attack.
Face to face with that imposing monster, Luke knew he had no time to hesitate, after all, he had seen countless times with the <Leg of Horus> what just a moment's hesitation could result in a battle against a dragon. Determined to let the other two escapes, Luke spliced his right jab into a left jab from below, aiming to strike the monster's jugular.
Luke managed to hit the jugular, and it threw the dragon's head back a little, but that was all. The dragon's scales were too tough.
'Damn, the toughness of that thing is even greater than I could have predicted, I won't be able to fight bare handed.'
The half-wolf lost a lot of mobility every time he chose to use the Behemoth Axe, and even though this weapon was a crucial key to his greatest victories, using it against a dragon was tantamount to abandoning the full range of possible attacks that the Sea Ornament martial art provided. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

In Luke's hands, an abyssal-looking black axe suddenly appeared, and Luke immediately spun it around to try to attack the dragon.
As he ran, Wanney looked back for a brief second, and saw that that wolf-eared man really was managing to slow the dragon down. In the Melki Empire, half-beasts were a Class of common servants and employees of the wealthy, and Wanney had never heard of any that could be a warrior, so to be defeated by a half-beast and to see him fighting on equal terms with a dragon was certainly a surprise.
Wanney was pulled by Meredith to continue their momentum to the rock, and when they finally got there, Luke felt relieved because he no longer had to hold back. After one more attempt at scratching the dragon with one of its front paws, Luke defended with the Behemoth Axe and felt his arms shaking from the tremendous strength of the monster, but he managed to withstand it and jumped back, stepping back.
"I don't care how strong and big you are, we will not stop here." Luke spoke to the monster and slammed the axe handle into the ground as he knelt down."<Yggdrasil>" he uttered.
A gigantic tree instantly formed between the dragon and the half-wolf, whose trunk was ten meters thick. The roots of this tree dug deep into the ground, and its branches formed a shadow in front of the beast, who was obviously surprised that this was suddenly summoned.
Still, what was a tree to a kind of monster capable of destroying entire forests in minutes?
The dragon's ornamental horns glowed, and the energy beam shot out again, cutting the tree in half.
Luke already knew this would happen, but he hoped he would at least have time to control the branches of the tree first.
Luckily, the half-wolf was able to use the smoke created by the burning of the trunk to sneak through and the thunder of the tree falling to advance unbound, thus creating the opportunity he had been waiting for. Luke concentrated very well as he pulled plenty of air into his lungs and used a technique he hadn't used in a long time, a technique taught to him by Yoelona.
With much experience and a slight feeling of strangeness, Luke managed through his breathing to coordinate his heartbeat, speeding it up. At that moment, his muscles became firmer and his whole consciousness more precise. Luke didn't know and didn't understand, but at that moment he concentrated his Qi.
Like a dark flash of lightning, Luke suddenly came out of the smoke, startling the dragon, which turned to strike him with its tail.
The half-wolf used the debris from part of the <Yggdrasil> tree to change its trajectory, which once again surprised the monster. Luke did this maneuver again and again, using every feature and feature of the battlefield to his advantage, aiming for the best possible result.
From the outside, those watching this would see the dragon confused by not knowing which direction his enemy could attack from, however, in the heat of battle Luke couldn't even think about how funny it was to see a confused dragon, because he was too focused not to miss under any circumstances.
Luke didn't have much time with his improved strength, so he had to attack, at least that's what he thought. The dragon surprised him when it flapped its wings and flew a few feet upwards, with no patience for the games of that human who was annoying to him.
"What do you think you are doing, insignificant creature?" The dragon asked, startling everyone with his thick voice.
Just the beating of that monster's wings was enough to clear the battlefield, so Luke had no choice but to stop propelling himself to and fro. After all, this was certainly not foreseen.
"Can you really talk?" Luke asked as he looked up, still with his axe in his right hand, and ready for anything.
"Of course, I can talk, what do you think I am?" The sound coming out of the dragon's mouth was strange, as if it was resonating all the way down to the soul of the half-wolf.
"A monster." With all the simplicity in the world, Luke stated.
At that moment, the dragon sighed through its large nostrils and a sudden explosion of black smoke occurred around it. The half-wolf didn't understand, and just gripped the handle of his weapon tighter, but almost dropped it when he saw the small creature that came out of the smoke where the dragon was.
