Reborn As A Dragon!?

Chapter 183: Conclusion

I blinked pulling myself out of my soul space. For a second, confusion clouded my gaze as I glanced at my surroundings. This, however, only lasted for a couple of seconds as my eyes were drawn to Breta's collapsed body.

My eyes glowed momentarily as my vision changed. Looking at her, I could see the shade's disgusting mana trying to wreak havoc inside her body. Taking a deep breath, I calmed myself and reached out to my newest elemental additions.

The two black and green dragons inside my soul space steered as they felt my pull. Thankfully, they didn't seem to have any intentions of defying me. I first attempted to cleanse Breta's body using the black poison dragon.

This proved to be useless, however, as the earth-based poison element was ineffective against the shade's mana. My heart sank at the results, leaving me wondering whether or not the water-based poison would turn out to be better suited for the task.

Still, I had no time to be nervous as Breta's situation worsened by the minute. I hastily commanded the water-based poison elements from my soul space, a strand of it flowed inside the goddess's body. A frown quickly made its way across my face as it did.

The shade's mana reacted strongly against my poison elements, this could only mean one thing, it was effective. My heart fluttered with joy at the realization, and I hastily commanded the water-based poison elements to subdue the invading shade's mana.

Seconds turned to minutes, and minutes turned to hours, as I sat down with my eyes closed trying to suppress the shade's mana. The sky darkened, yet the battle between elements continued to rage inside the goddess's body.

"Fuck..." A curse escaped my mouth, as I foresaw my impending defeat.

At first, both elements seemed equally matched, no I even held somewhat of an advantage as I commanded my poison mana to drive back the shade's mana to a corner. Both elements clashed in an attempt to destroy one another.

This, however, brought about consequences I did not foresee. The clash between the elements was slowly destroying Breta's body from the inside. This forced me to employ the earth-based poison elements as well even though it was not very helpful against the shades. I utilized it as a barrier of sorts to prevent the conflict between the water-based poison and shade mana from destroying Breta's body.

For a while, it worked, though the damage Breta sustained was already quite serious. Seeing no way out of it, I utilized my water mana as well to heal her wounds. Employing three different elements at the same time caused my mind to feel as if it was about the explode.

Still, I forced myself to prevail since I held the advantage in the situation. This changed though when I felt my elements dwindling. In the first place, my soul space mana was not infinite. When using mana, I would usually employ the one inside my soul space as a link of sorts to help me utilize the elements from my surroundings.

Now that I was using it solely from my soul space, however, I was on the verge of running out of mana. Something that never quite experienced before. "Shit, why now out of all times?" I cursed my luck and raised my head to glance at my surroundings.

I needed to change my location to one with abundant amounts of water mana. Luckily, I knew just the place. Taking extra care not to stop the battle raging inside Breta's body, I carefully held her in my hand while making sure that my claws wouldn't hurt her.

I took one final glance at the place where Amanita's crystal was once at and solemnly bowed before I shot towards the sky. My destination, the vast lake near our floating mountain. It didn't take me long before I was upon the shores of the massive lake. The bright moonlight illuminated the area almost as if it was day, causing the water the glow faintly.

The second I landed, I felt my mood elevate as I took in all the surrounding water mana in delight. I slowly walked from the shore towards the middle of the lake, the water below was as if it was solid ground. I could see the various water elements of all shapes and sizes dancing in joy at my presence.

They welcomed me, and I welcomed them. For a second, I almost forgot the reason why I came. Yet, the presence of the shade's mana quickly brought me back to my senses. I gently reached out to the water elements asking for their help, to which they happily complied eager to please me.

The sudden appearance of the water mana reinforced my poison elements who were struggling to keep the shade's mana at bay. It also helped me heal Breta's injuries with relative ease. The goddess's frown softened as her expression turned calm.

With me on my home ground, the shade's poison was slowly but surely pushed into a corner. My water-based poison consumed it greedily as attempted to fight back but to no avail. Here my mana was truly near infinite.

By the time the first rays of the morning shone on the lake, the last strands of shade mana disappeared with it. A long sigh of relief escaped my mouth, as a wide grin subconsciously made its way across my face. 'I did it, I healed her and managed to repel the shade's mana,' Such thoughts kept swirling in my mind as my grin broadened.

It didn't take long after that for Breta's eyes to flutter open. Her gaze was confused at first as she stared at the blue sky above. Her eyes then slowly moved towards me, my grin still evident on my face.

"I told you i'll get us out of there," I proudly spoke.

She, however, remained silent content in simply staring at my face. This made me feel a bit uncomfortable as I hesitantly asked, "What? Do I have something on my face?"

"You saved me," She spoke, her tone laced in confusion.

"Well, yes," I replied scratching my head.

"Why?" She questioned.

"Why you say? Well, I supposed because I consider you a friend?"

Her usually emotionless face broke for a second and her eyes widened slightly. Looking at her reaction brought me enough satisfaction that I felt it was worth the trouble I experienced as I nodded happily.
