Dragon King's Harem Chapter 33. The Ancestral Dragon
As I deep in thought, trying to find a way to defeat him, the Dragon swung his claw again at me. Swiftly, I opened my wings and jumped out of the way but the impact managed to cut the sleeve of my uniform.
The dragon's taunt echoed through the chamber.
"Is that how a dragon king fights? By running away and dodging like a coward?" he taunted. I could see his condescending grin on his slightly transparent mouth.

I glanced at my sleeve before returning my gaze to him. My wings flapped, keeping me floating in the mid-air. My eyes looked at him.
'It wasn't just a bark.' Since he could attack me, I would try to attack him with my skills. Besides I had no other choice.

The sparks surrounded me and my black armour covered my body.
'Rage!' I took out my Bazooka and aimed it at him.
'Rage!' I took out my Bazooka and aimed it at him.
- Boom!
Unfortunately, my attack just cut through him, as if I had only shot the air. My attack landed on the floor behind him. A crack was formed from impact, but soon, it closed by itself, since this room was protected by special magic power. I gritted my teeth in displeasure.
'Tch! As I thought ... '
'Tch! As I thought ... '
He laughed loudly at my failure.
"Physical attacks won't hurt me. If you want to kill me, you have to use your magic skills or your elemental magic," he said in a condescending tone. Looks like he knew I had no other offensive skills besides my Mana Weapon.

"You know it, yet you still put me in a difficult position," I said with a glare. My brain kept trying to find a way to beat him.
He grinned wickedly.
"That's your problem, not mine." Then a huge burst of fire came out of his mouth and charged at me. I cancelled my mana weapon as I flicked my wings to dodge. With ease, he moved his head without stopping his flame. I flew to dodge, my eyes fixed on him and my brain kept thinking to find a way.

I manoeuvred in the mid-air, moving my wings rapidly to avoid the flame that was chasing me. Then suddenly an idea crossed my head.
'I hope this could work!' I stopped and stretched out my hand, casting my skill.
'Mana Barrier!'
'I hope this could work!' I stopped and stretched out my hand, casting my skill.
'Mana Barrier!'
A transparent wall appeared before me.
[A barrier has been formed.]
Another announcement popped up as his flame hit my barrier.
[Ancestral Dragon's flame has hit your barrier, mana barrier energy 2/3.]
The flame spread out in all directions, covering his sight to me. Quickly, I flicked my wings, bringing my body to fly lower towards his feet. Meanwhile, my energy barrier grew weaker.
[Mana barrier energy 1/3.]
'Terror!' A pair of black gauntlets with sharp claws covered my hands up to my elbows. Then I swung my claw at him as another announcement appeared before me.
[Your mana barrier has been destroyed.]
But of course, though I landed a clean hit on his leg, my attack failed. He shifted his gaze at me who was still beneath him and grinned Evilly.
"What a stupid move!" And he shot his flame at me.

'Mana Barrier!'
A transparent wall reappeared before me.
[A barrier has been formed.]
And just like before, the flame hit my barrier.
[Ancestral Dragon's flame has hit your barrier, mana barrier energy 2/3.]
And spread out in all directions, while I retreated to dodge. This time because the flame was too big and my barrier was too close to his foot, he injured himself.
"Khhh!" He was in pain and stopped his attack.
[The Ancestral Dragon has taken 287 magical damage.]
I grinned.
'Gotcha!' Now I knew what I had to do to deal with him. But I still had to be careful, because though he had huge fire resistance and only took a little damage, the damage was quite big. He just needed to land a clean hit and I would die.

Quickly, I cast my Mana Barrier again as I moved around him.
He turned around.
"What are you planning, huh?" he roared in anger. His claw swung at me. Quickly, I flicked my wings to dodge his attack. But then, I went back, as if to mock him and cast my Mana Barrier. He attacked me with his claws and his flame repeatedly. While, I flew from side to side deftly, avoiding his attacks like an annoying fly at the picnic area. But not only dodged it, secretly, I cast my Mana Barrier and arranged it around him. And of course, though I dodged, I didn't move far away and kept my distance close to him.

Fifteen minutes had passed, he stopped his attack and gave me an angry look.
"Stop running away and face me as a real dragon king!" he roared.
"Stop running away and face me as a real dragon king!" he roared.
I stopped and floated not far from him. Though I was gasping for breath since I had to divide my focus to create my Mana Barrier and dodge his attacks, a smirk on my lips.
"Very well. How about we finish everything in one strike?" I said in a casual tone.

He grinned.
"As you wish!" He spat his fire at me once again. While I stretched out my hand and cast another Mana Barrier in front of me.

'Mana Barrier!'
A transparent wall appeared before me.
[A barrier has been formed.]
The last barrier was like the last puzzle piece that completed the other piece of barriers.
His huge flame hit my barrier.
[Ancestral Dragon's flame has hit your barrier, mana barrier energy 2/3.]
And spread out in all directions. This time, since I arranged my barrier to form a dome that bent towards him, his flame turned completely to him and burned his body directly.
"Argggg!" he screamed in pain and stopped his attack. While I glided backwards to make some distance.
[The Ancestral Dragon has taken 1287 magical damage. ]
'Damn! He's really bad news! ' I had to admit that making Mana Barrier around him drained my Mana, luckily, I had a lot of Al's Mana Potions. I could only hope that I had enough stock to beat him.
His flame was gone as my Mana Barrier was destroyed.
[Your mana barrier has been destroyed.]
As the dragon's figure became clearer before me, I could see him staring at me with rage.
But rather than being scared, I replied with a challenging look.
"Shall we continue?" From the previous battle, I knew our strength differences were too big. But I knew I wouldn't be able to escape from here, besides he also didn't want to negotiate with me anymore. The only thing I could do was fight.

But then his anger faded, replaced by a loud laugh. I frowned, noticing his sudden change in attitude.
"Incredible! This is the first time someone used Mana Barrier to return my attack. The real Argod surely has chosen you well," he said with a satisfied smirk.
"Incredible! This is the first time someone used Mana Barrier to return my attack. The real Argod surely has chosen you well," he said with a satisfied smirk.
Then he shrunk and turned into a male figure like me. But what distinguishes it, his body was only made of light like before.
"We need to talk," he said.
"We need to talk," he said.
With caution, I descended and walked over to him. Even though he only seemed willing to test me before, I didn't know what his main intention was.
"You seem a cautious person," he said as he realized I hadn't trusted him.
"I can't possibly trust someone who nearly killed me that easily," I replied as I stopped in front of him, but still, I kept my distance in case he suddenly changed his mind and attacked me again.
"Calm down. I just want to know more about you," he said with a smirk.
A second later, the atmosphere around me turned heavy, I even couldn't move and felt the ground beneath me trying to pull me down.
[Warning! The stun effect has started!]
[Your speed has decreased by 100%]
[Warning! The gravitation pressure increases by 100%]
[Your speed has decreased by 100%]
[Warning! The gravitation pressure increases by 100%]
'What ?!' I struggled to try to move my body but in vain. Even I struggled just to keep myself standing.
He suddenly disappeared and appeared right in front of me.
"If I wanted to kill you, I would not attack you like before but like this," he said with a smirk.
"If I wanted to kill you, I would not attack you like before but like this," he said with a smirk.
"What do you want?" I asked straight to the point.
"You have passed my test, therefore I will give you a chance to lead the Draconis Empire. And since you passed my expectation, I will reward you." He stretched out his hand to me and a huge fire came out of it. Strangely the flame did not attack me but surrounded my body.
[The Ancestral Dragon wants to give you his essence. Do you want to extract it?]
[Yes] [No]
[Yes] [No]
I turned my gaze to him.
"Take it," he said calmly.
"You really hate weak people, don't you?" I guessed why he suddenly gave his essence to me.
"No, I hate when my descendant is denigrated as a weak creature."
I responded with a smirk.
"I will become stronger. Just watch me." I turned my gaze to the screen in front of me.
'Yes.'
"I will become stronger. Just watch me." I turned my gaze to the screen in front of me.
'Yes.'
My body absorbed the flame surrounding me as a magic formation glowed in white formed under my feet. In an instant, my body felt hot, as if a huge flame burnt my body.
"Kkhhhhhh !!!!!" I gritted my teeth, enduring the burning feeling all over my body. Another announcement appeared before me.
[Congratulations! You have acquired new skills: Dragon's Vision, Blazing Orb, Elemental Weapon, Telekinetic ---- Error! The essence is too strong for you! Insufficient level!]
"Argggggg!" I screamed out loud as I couldn't help the burning sensation that bit my whole body.
"Tch!" The Ancestral Dragon stretched out his hand to me.
"Draw!" And the remaining flame returned to him.
"Draw!" And the remaining flame returned to him.
The atmosphere around me returned to normal, the heat that burned my body disappeared. I staggered backwards as tried to catch my breath and keep my footing, my sweat was dripping. That was definitely an unpleasant experience.
[Your speed has returned to normal.]
[The gravitation pressure returns to normal.]

"I think it's too much for you," he said, his eyes observing me and his index finger tapping under his lips.
"Hmm ... How about you levelled up first and came back here after getting stronger. I'll be happy to share my essence to you." Then he smirked.
"But of course you have to beat me first. And our next fight will not be as easy as today."

"But of course you have to beat me first. And our next fight will not be as easy as today."
"Deal!" I said without hesitation in panting breath.
"Good! Next time, you have to fight me better." After those words left his mouth, his body shattered into tiny lights that spread throughout the room.
"Remember, I will always watch over you. Good luck, Argod." His voice echoed once again.
"Remember, I will always watch over you. Good luck, Argod." His voice echoed once again.
I smirked.
"You don't need to remind me about it," I muttered. Then I turned around and walked out towards the exit.
