Chapter 437: Returning home
Terra kept healing Rain nonstop until the next day, using her Meditation Mastery and her focus on the damaged spine... Rain didn't expect that in just one day, he would have some results, but soon, he was able to sense his fingers again and then slowly his arms.
"Thanks, it seems that a full recovery is on the path," Rain said while moving his fingers and then sighing in relief. "I guess I should change my way of finishing big enemies in the future."
"Yeah, you should!" Terra said while massaging her eyebrows. "How can you almost die in so many ways? I would punch you if that couldn't undo my work."
Fighting the way he liked was fun, but even while using magic, it was dangerous to fight dragons like a boxer... it was hard to deliver the most powerful blows without risking taking some feedback of the hits as well. While he was being healed, Rain wondered what he should do about that, but at least he gained a lot in exchange for those problems.
Level 25: Mana Flow - Improve your mana control, allowing you to channel spells more efficiently and faster by three percent per level.
Level 30: Mind Ward - Shield your mind from mental attacks, gaining resistance to mind-altering effects.
Level 35: Mana Arrow - Conjure a powerful arrow made of pure mana and shoot it at a distant foe. The more mana used, the more powerful and faster it will fly.
Level 40: Wisdom's Blessing - Bestow a boost in wisdom to yourself and nearby allies of ten points per level.
Level 45: Mana Burst - Release a burst of mana, creating a small explosion around you to knock back enemies.
When Rain equipped Wisdom's Blessing, Terra immediately noticed that her magic power increased... that skill was awesome since it could level up pretty fast the more allies Rain had on his side. He was looking forward to more skills like that.
Moreover, the humans had gone to great lengths to capture and exploit his people, using them as pawns to boost their own power. This criminal act only served to stoke the fires of resentment and distrust he felt towards the human side.
In the midst of these tumultuous feelings, Josar found himself ensnared in a profound dilemma. While the prospect of forging an alliance seemed virtually unattainable, given the tensions and festering grievances on both sides, he also couldn't bring himself to request Rain's further assistance.
He recognized that Rain had his own reasons for mistrusting the magic people, having lost his home twice and almost lost his father at their hands.
These deep-rooted emotions and animosities weighed heavily on Josar, forming a complex and inextricable web of inner conflict, making it a daunting challenge to find any resolution or clarity in the situation.
"If you are interested in being paid for it, we will welcome you to join us in this war," Josar could only say that.
"I will consider it," Rain said.
In the end, they couldn't even shake hands because of the situation. Rain just put the boxes on his earth platform and then stored the leather and the scales of the ice dragon as well. Before long, Rain and Terra were flying back home.
"Maybe with all this, I can convince Lotto to join our side... this will test his skills, and he likes that," Rain thought.
The leather and scales harvested from the ice dragon can be fashioned into an array of remarkable items, each possessing unique and formidable attributes such as Dragonhide Armor. These scales are excellent for crafting exceptionally durable and frost-resistant armor. It offers superior protection against cold-based attacks and ensures the wearer's safety even in frigid conditions.
Blades or spear tips made from these materials would have a chilling effect, freezing the wounds they inflict. Such weapons are highly effective in combat, especially against adversaries vulnerable to cold damage. By reinforcing shields with dragon scales, they become more adept at blocking and absorbing cold-based attacks.
