Second World Novel

“It’s Eoranth! It’s Eoranth!” The draconian soldiers on the wall cheered. Their cheering soon turned into chanting as they continued repeating the name.

The players didn’t truly understand the hype. Why were these native draconians suddenly turned so optimistic after hearing the roar? The battlefield situation was extremely not encouraging at the moment.

Suddenly, a ray of light pierced through the clouds above and accurately struck the undead Kimat.

Kimat managed to erect a magic shield just before the ray hit, but the force pushed Kimat down and planted him into the ground. His touchdown point also resulted in an explosive shockwave that threw the army down there away.

Another roar was heard. The dark clouds swirled. The ones who saw it thought it looked like an upside-down cloud whirlpool.

A giant object then fell from that cloud whirlpool at high speed. At first glance, that object was an elliptical meteor, but then this meteor came to an abrupt stop mid-air right above the capital’s main gate. This meteor opened its outer shell, which turned out to be a pair of gigantic leathery wings. What the opened wings revealed was a colossal dragon in a humanoid body.

Jeanny thought the dragon looked very much like Jack when he transformed into his supreme dragon form, except this one was covered in silvery white scales and had a long neck. Also, it was much, much, much bigger.

Eoranth looked at the scene below with a gaze that was equal parts disdain and disgust, “Puny insects. How dare you desecrate this place I look over! Suffer my wrath!!”

His jaws opened and a beam of pure light was discharged. This beam swept past the zombie army and obliterated many of the weaker enemy soldiers. Only the ones with the highest HP remained, but even they had a few HP left after being blasted by the beam. As for the players, they stood no chance.

“That was soul breath,” Jeanny uttered. Eoranth was right above her. She could sense the breath the dragon emitted. It felt very similar to Jack’s soul breath. She also used Inspect on the huge dragon.

‘It is even stronger than Themisphere’s country guardian…,’ Jeanny thought.

Eoranth’s soul breath also damaged two of the arrow towers that had come close enough. Seeing those arrow towers still stand made Eoranth feel as if those towers were defying him. He flew forward and crashed into one of them before he started pummeling it into the ground with its claws.

The enemy soldiers around the tower tried their best to send their attacks but their attacks were like mosquito bites to the gargantuan dragon. His defense was too high.

Eoranth was still offended by those tiny attacks, though. After the first arrow tower was down, he stomped his clawed feet onto the ground. A gigantic runic symbol appeared on the ground and shone brightly. The entire space the symbol covered was then encased in a light pillar. Everyone within this pillar received continuous soul damage.

What Eoranth used was a skill called Souls of Heaven and Earth. When the light pillar dispersed, every enemy in Eoranth’s vicinity was lifeless. This included the zombie soldiers.

“Holy… That country guardian is a serious badass!” Paytowin exclaimed.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ Jeanny simply nodded. No wonder Frorryntiar was so confident when she talked about Eoranth.

When Eoranth headed to the second damaged arrow tower and started dishing out punishments, Kimat flew out of the collapsed ground. He still had more than half of his HP. As an undead, he had no fear. He flew directly toward Eoranth.

Kimat cast spells that only served to annoy the dragon. So, Eoranth turned his attention to Kimat.

Spell formation formed as Eoranth aimed his claw at Kimat. Kimat found himself losing control over his flight. His body was unwillingly pulled toward Eoranth.

Eoranth had used the Telekinesis spell to pull Kimat over. Once the draconian came into range, Eoranth grabbed him. The draconian was like a tiny doll in Eoranth’s grip.

Kimat was then used by Eoranth to be mercilessly slammed into the arrow tower. The dragon was delivering damage to both his targets at the same time.

Before long, the arrow tower crumbled. Kimat still had a sliver of HP in him. Eoranth threw him to the ground and stomped his remaining HP out.

Eoranth then turned his head away from the capital. The spot he looked at, was where the enemy’s field command base was. His dragon eyes saw things in the night as clearly as they were in the day. Over there, Master stood with the others. The war tables and the guild army summoning platforms were there.

Eoranth flapped his wings and flew high into the sky. “I’m ending this!” He bellowed.

He looked upward and opened his jaws wide. At the same time, a large amount of mana flowed into his opened jaws. They gathered and created a spectacular light display. It was like seeing several rivers made of light flowing into Eoranth’s opened jaws. At the same time, multiple rune symbols seemed to float around his head, similar to when one was executing a rune technique.

The converged light intensified until even Eoranth’s head was covered by the brightness.

Eoranth then turned his head down and discharged that accumulated energy. The force of the discharge caused a thunderous sound and the air around exploded with a ring-shaped shockwave. A thick beam of pure energy fired downward.

The beam was very large. It also brightened everything in the vicinity, allowing everyone to see the enemy’s command base in this darkness. They briefly saw the enemy’s leaders before they were completely engulfed by the thick beam.

The beam then abruptly expanded, covering even more area. Two flame catapults fell into this beam area. Everyone roughly made out the damage numbers that kept popping up above those siege weapons. The beam went on for some time as the HP bar from the catapults kept on decreasing.

The HP bar was finally depleted and the flame catapults crumbled. If even a siege structure that possessed tons of HP couldn’t endure the energy beam, what more of everything else?

The beam produced a final pulse that created a massive explosion that blasted and damaged everything in the vicinity. Everyone that was nearby but outside the beam was sent flying a long distance away by this final explosion. Many weaker units couldn’t survive this explosion.

As the beam and dust cloud settled, the area that had been hit directly by the beam was filled with dead bodies, except for the place where the enemy command base was.

Everyone, including Eoranth, saw in consternation that Master and his closest aides with the war table and the guild army command platforms were still standing at the center of the charred ground. It was as if nothing had happened to them.
