Chapter 432: Dragon's power
Rain ascended the long, winding staircase that led to the heart of the capital of the magic people. Each step he took seemed like a journey in itself, and with every stride, the weight of the impending confrontation pressed heavily on his shoulders.
As he reached the top, the view that greeted him was both awe-inspiring and scary. The dragons' colossal forms dominated the skyline, their powerful wings unfurled, and their eyes fixated on the unfolding scene below. The dragons exuded an aura of regal authority and raw, primal power, and their presence alone was enough to send shivers down Rain's spine.
"I told her that I would deal with them, but how exactly?" Rain thought while furrowing his eyebrows.
Rain could see three fire dragons, two water dragons, two wind dragons, and two earth dragons being led by one ice dragon chasing a battalion of magic people… the ice dragon should be at least three hundred years old. That guy was just watching the others chasing and attacking the magic people from above as if it were just evaluating the younger dragons.
"I guess I should bring that guy down… easier said than done," Rain thought.
If anything, at least Rain would buy some time for that group being chased to escape… then again, he wondered if that crazy bitch was among them since he didn't see her until now. At the same time, there was also Leo… Rain wondered if he had become a snack for dragons already.
After taking a deep breath, Rain calmed down and then made up his mind. Helping those assholes sucked, but Rain would gain a lot of experience by killing that dragon, and this time, he definitely will bring some of its parts back home. At the same time, he would increase the morale of the magic people, and the humans would lose the momentum to strike… It was a three-against-one victory.
"Well, here I come…" Rain said.
After jumping from the top of the building, Rain landed on the staircase of the other side of the city and then inclined his body upward as if he was falling. Still, in the last moment, he used Limit Breaker, Magic Boost, and Impulse toward the ice dragon.
In a single moment, Rain crossed almost one kilometer of distance, but the target was still two kilometers away… he created an ice platform under his feet, and then he used Impulse again… he crossed all that distance in the blink of an eye before punching the ice dragon in the face.
The powerful impact echoed like a thunderbolt in the area as the ice dragon stopped in the air, completely stunned and unaware of what just had happened… but it wasn't over. Rain jumped after landing on the face of the creature and then summoned a giant earth arm over his… when he fell, he punched the beast downward with all his might… making it fall and then collide with the earth dragons.
"Wait… since this is an ice dragon, wouldn't lightning be insanely effective against it?" Rain thought while he was falling. "Maybe not, since I used water magic to create the lightning bolt conditions."
All the dragons looked around and saw Rain falling, but soon, he stopped when he created giant earth boots around his shin guards as well. He could control them and make them float, so he basically could fly now. At the same time, the battalion that was running away slowed down to see who stopped the enemies, and they couldn't help but show their astonishment when they recognized Rain.
"Shit…" Rain clicked his tongue in annoyance when he recognized that woman leading the group. "It seems that she lost that dragon already… serves her right."

In any case, Rain pulled off the task of stopping the dragons… now he just had to do that for who knows how long. The ice dragon eventually recovered from the surprise, shook its head, and then eventually saw Rain flying above.
The ice dragon began to glare at Rain, and then its bloodlust made the other dragons retreat… it was so intense that it could only be described as earth-shattering… Before long, the beast began to emit its cold aura thanks to the dragon's rage, and even the ground began to freeze and caused the earth dragons to run away… still, all of them stopped moving and turned around to see the battle… it seemed that they wanted to see the power of their upperclassmen in action.
"Fine by me," Rain thought.
The dragon opened its mouth and then fired a barrage of ice spears through it. Rain didn't know if that was its version of dragon breath, but it didn't matter… he immediately flew away to escape the attack.
The monster kept chasing him with the attack while it took flight as well and slowly recovered its speed… At first, Rain tried to fly in circles to be able to watch the battle in the vicinity of the capital… but the more the dragon attacked, the colder the area got. Or maybe it was thanks to its freezing aura.
At some point, Rain decided to close the mouth of the creature, and then he turned around and stopped moving. When the enemy's attack was about to reach him, Rain began to move again while zigzagging, from one side to the other, up and down…
As he got closer, Rain felt his body trembling due to the cold… the monster dragon's rage was much more intense than the others… Still, Rain kept going and eventually punched the right side of the creature… Rain felt like he had punched a dragon made of steel… His arm began to hurt despite the protection offered by the giant earth gloves, and the head of the dragon only moved to the side a little.
It seemed that things would be way harder than he had expected, but it explained a lot given the actions of the other dragons.
