Release That Succubus

Chapter 274 274 Strong Clara





Disregarding the feeling of unease, the sea dragon took a leap of faith. Its body accelerated like a coiling dragon launching a fierce strike with the full force of its body.

Zach was already prepared as he ducked down low and slid underneath its gigantic body with a roll. He then struck the lightsaber in his hand upward in a stabbing motion.

Comparing normal swords with the lightsaber was like comparing a hand grenade to the nuclear bomb. The power enclosed in that thin light blade far surpassed the power of shells from the tanks as it easily penetrated the tough skin of the dragon.

Given the huge size of the beast, it was impossible for Zach to actually damage it so much with a single poke on its gigantic body but it was enough to give the beast a sense of the danger that Zach and his plasma weapon actually posed to it.

The sea dragon that hadn't felt pain in a long time grew afraid of the glowing stick in Zach's hands. It was such a sharp stick that it could bypass the combined defense of its dragon scales and mana so easily.

While the sea dragon was completely immersed in thought trying to figure out ways to avoid or destroy such a powerful weapon, Clara found the opportunity that she had been waiting for since the beginning of the strife between Zach and the sea dragon.

She came up from the sea dragon's blind spot and grabbed the fishy tail of the sea dragon. Instead of being round, it was actually flat like an oar probably because the sea dragon needed to swim in the ocean and needed the extra push from the natural rudder like tail to help it change direction or propel itself forward in an instant.

Clara had spent her whole life trying to increase the physical strength of her body and had even sacrificed the body she could have had if she hadn't practiced the skill to set her bones in her childhood. The strength in her grip wasn't something even the sea dragon could ignore.

She used all her herculean strength she could muster by rotating her body in order to gain momentum before throwing the dragon in her grip into the air while keeping a firm grip on the edge of its tail.

The sea dragon that was inadvertently pulled into the air by a force that could not be ignored grew furious at this sudden and sneak attack but it could do nothing to change the outcome. It had no choice but to fly until the force pushing it into the air pulled it back abruptly with a jerk.

The sea dragon felt the insides of its head turning into mush as a bout of dizziness took over its senses. In its current state it couldn't tell up from down, let alone control its increasing momentum as its body moved towards the ground like a meteor from outer space.

The entire length of the dragon was as large as the shore line of the island. So, when it slammed into the ground with so much momentum, shockwaves spread out in all directions following the collision and damaged everything in the vicinity. Christina conjured up a light shield to protect the soldiers and those who couldn't protect themselves. Since she wasn't defending against the full force of the attack and just the aftershocks, she didn't have to exert herself very much.

The spectators were stunned; even Zach's mouth was open. Blackbeard's face grew pale after the scene he witnessed. The girl was too terrifying, he hurriedly thanked his gods that he had retreated after losing one hand against her. Otherwise, she might have turned him into meat paste with her next strike.

The sea dragon was suffering as well but it was less pain and more humiliation. Its powerful body had the perfect defense and could defend against such an attack to some extent but the shame that followed turned its inside into a darker shade.

It was a mighty dragon but it had been picked up and slammed into the ground like a worthless snake by a girl that was smaller than its teeth.

While its feud with Zach was nothing but a deal with Blackbeard, with Clara it had become a personal issue. He wanted nothing less than to tear her into a thousand pieces to recover the reputation loss.

The furious sea dragon managed to pick itself up in no time. it had kept the object of its wrath in sight the whole time. therefore, without wasting time it opened its gigantic mouth that had an angry expression plastered all over it.I think you should take a look at

The opening of its mouth was the indication of the previous attack it had used against Zach but there was no time to stop it from executing the move. The sea dragon had visibly shortened the casting time by compromising on the power of the attack. It was no longer interested in flashy moves and wanted to swiftly take care of the girl.

Before the mana beam could reach Clara, Zach intervened as he was the closest to her. Being a strength-oriented mage, Clara had no means to defend herself with so Zach was already prepared to defend her after she made her move.

Zach spun the lightsaber twice and managed to deflect the mana beam on the second swing. The mana beam was cast before time, so the strength behind it had been lowered considerably as well. Zach didn't have any trouble defending against it.

The dragon warily looked at the red stick and hesitated to launch another attack. It only roared to release its frustration.

Christina took this opportunity to cast the magic she had been chanting all this time. It not only had a long range but also the effect was far stronger than any combat-oriented magic.

It was an illusion magic that caused the target to feel dizzy using the target's vision. Since vision was based on the principles of light, Christina cast a few light screens around the target. It caused the light to refract countless times before reaching the target's eyes, causing it to feel its vision shaking continuously. The effect was same as dizziness and there was almost no chance of detection unless the target turned out to be a light oriented mage. And the chances of that happening were almost negligible.

The sea dragon couldn't understand how it could have sustained this much damage from Clara's attack earlier. Its head was spinning and it was unable to shake of the feeling of vertigo.

Although it couldn't come up with explanation about its current condition, it realized one single fact, that these humans weren't exactly harmless. It could not exterminate these ones on its own without paying a considerable price. Battling these humans without a solid plan and a thorough understanding of the consequences would only leave it suffering alone in the end.

Intelligent as it was, the sea dragon pretended to be in a state of fury as it opened its mouth in an attempt to launch another mana beam.

Other than the top-level mages and Zach, no soldier or technology was able to interfere in this high-level battle. Even Blackbeard who was already completely spent, stuck close to the sea dragon in an attempt to keep himself alive from enemy attacks. He was worried that Zach and his soldiers might take the opportunity to get rid of him before fighting it out with the sea dragon.

Zach tightened his hold over the light saber and lowered his body posture when the mana beam was about to be launched.

However, the expected mana beam never reached its target. While all the spectators and those involved in the fight were focused on the expected path of the mana beam, the sea dragon had concocted another plan in its cunning mind.

It turned its flexible body to the side and used its opened mouth to gobble up Diana who was not expecting such an attack.

Fear took over Zach's senses as he began to realize what had happened. The sea dragon was so intelligent that it even knew how to scheme. It had purposely diverted all their attention to kidnap Diana.

Thankfully, it hadn't actually eaten her but was only holding her in its mouth. He wondered if Blackbeard had something to do with this scheme but couldn't be sure.
