Chapter 270: Wind Breath
Rain began to run around the area while keeping an eye on the enemy. He was trying to save some mana while he tried to learn the patterns of the monster, but the beast was smart enough to keep its distance while not showing any of its powers aside from the wind blade.
"I guess I will have to force it to show its cards..." Rain thought. "I can't take my time when the others are fighting... those two dragons are stronger than the one I faced before."
Rain jumped with all his might and reached two hundred meters of height, but the wind dragon flapped its wings away to build some distance. Still, when the creature was about to attack again, Rain created a blast of wind under his feet and propelled himself toward the dragon.
The creature was caught off guard, but when Rain was about to land the punch, it created a wind barrier. The impact made the dragon tremble, and its head was pushed to the side, but before Rain could do anything else, the wind pushed him away in a massive blast... It was a defensive spell that was activated when the enemy attacked.
Rain spun in the air a couple of times, but he still managed to land on his feet. However, he soon began to fly again by controlling the dirt on the ground to propel himself forward... it consumed a bit of mana every second, so he didn't have time to waste.
The wind dragon recovered from the attack but soon saw Rain getting closer. Without wasting time, the dragon used its mouth to fire a blast of wind... it was a wind breath. So, maybe just calling breath would be enough... regardless, Rain tried to approach the enemy. Still near the wind dragon, he felt as if he stood at the precipice of a fierce tornado.
The dragon's breath was an invisible hurricane, pushing against him with an unstoppable force. It seemed as though he were attempting to step into the heart of a raging storm, where the relentless winds threatened to toss him about like a feather.
"Shit... it can't be helped," Rain thought.
Rain used Impulse with all his might and then dashed toward that area. It didn't take long for him to see a bunch of magic people being blasted away by super-concentrated water cannons.
The attack soon reached Jori and the others, who tried to block it with their weapons. Asche and Liss used wind magic to weaken the episode a bit, but their wind barrier only lasted for a second. At least the blast only knocked them to the ground.
Terra approached to heal them since she could see them coughing blood, but then the monster targeted her as well with another water cannon. Fortunately, she raised her arms and blocked the attack with the forearm guards that Rain made of Reinforced earth to her, but she was knocked down as well, and her guards broke.
The monster could have attacked them with another water cannon to finish them off. Still, the dragon approached Terra instead to eat her alive. She was lucky that she didn't see that massive mouth closing in...
Still, before the monster could eat her, Rain arrived and punched the face of the beast. The attack had been so powerful that it emitted a blast of wind upon impact that made the area tremble and even made the dragon roll on the ground before coughing a mouthful of blood.
Rain charged again and then punched the monster with all his all his might, pushing the face of the beast from one side to the other. In contrast, the monster was semi-unconscious and unable to react. Still, when Rain went for the kill, the wind dragon arrived and pushed him away with another dragon breath...
Rain crossed his arms in front of his face to avoid being knocked down, and he also summoned an earth wall to protect the others. Before long, he clicked his tongue in annoyance when he saw the water dragon starting to fly again, but soon the creature began to fly away, and the wind dragon covered their retreat...
