Chapter 467: 452 The Sealed Dragon

With the Broken Carnwennan removed from the big chunk of ice, it seems I have unknowingly unleashed something that is being hidden inside the transparent ice. The ice started to shake that Atlas and I had to instinctively move away and watch what is happening.

"F*ck, it seems the Carnwennan was used to seal something on that ice and that is the only thing keeping that seal from being broken," I pulled out my Versatile Weapon and readies myself to fight.

"Get ready master, I can sense something big is going to come out."

The two of us point our weapons ready to the ice as it continues to shake. Every time it shakes, the more we are tensed waiting for it. It's not like we are nervous but we are wishing it's something that we can handle to fight without Guts. I am also ready to summon Lucia and the others if necessary if things go south.

Soon, cracks on the ice's surface started to show up and the shaking started to intensify. And then...

CRACK! BOOOM!

Shards of the ice block started flying in different directions. I immediately deployed the Shield of Vanagloria and blocked the remainder of the shards that comes to us.

Once the shards are no longer flying, I changed my weapon into a Magic Sword and activated [Flaming Sword]. Atlas also readies his greatsword to respond to the new enemy.

Before us is a giant serpent-like dragon with red stripes and green markings on its body. It doesn't look similar to the dragons found in Chinese Legends but it had the same form those dragons possess. The only difference is that it isn't flying or floating in the air as Chinese Dragons do, it has big hind legs that it is using for walking. It looks like a dinosaur with a large serpentine body. It doesn't look like an actual and appropriate form for a dragon.

"Is that... a dragon?" Atlas seemed to have formed a question in his head seeing the creature.

"More like a hybrid of a dinosaur and a Chinese Dragon. One thing is for sure, that is not a normal creature.

I checked the info of the monster that is still trying to get used to its body.

[Pendragon](Weakened Sealed State)

Level ???

HP: 3,000,000/????????

Trait: Mythical Monster, Dragon, Reptile, Hybrid

"Pendragon... that is also the surname of King Arthur. It also means Head Dragon. If the Carnwennan is used to seal it, does that mean it is connected to King Arthur in some way?" I frowned.

"Perhaps Master. So what is your assessment? Should we flee or attack it?"

"It looks like a monster with high health but due to its weakened state and sealed status, it was lowered enough for us to handle it. Atlas, coordinate with me and defeat this monster down. If we leave this guy out here without killing it, we might be in deep trouble later on. Let's strike it down before it can recover from the seal."

"Alright, Master!"

I pulled out a scroll on my inventory and tear it up into pieces.

"What was that, Master?"

"A scroll named [Weakening]. It reduces the attack power and defense power by 5% of an enemy that was targeted. Now, we shouldn't dawdle since the time is ticking, don't we?"

After explaining, I rushed forward and headed straight to the Pendragon. It hasn't recovered fully yet so when I was near it, it didn't get a good reaction to my first slash but as expected, it wasn't that easy either. The strike didn't do anything but graze its scales for a little bit. But since my Versatile Weapon has a passive to reduce its target's defensive values, it can slowly degrade the more I strike it.

Atlas made a follow-up and imbued his Greatsword with dark energy, and utilized it.

"HA!"

DANG!

N0 v el Next. CoM

The greatsword managed to hit but the scales are proving to be hard that the Greatsword looked like a big dull metal being carried by Atlas.

"Its scales are hard!"

"Not a problem!"

The Pendragon started to notice our attacks and uses its long tail to slap us off but with our quick reflexes, the tail slap came a bit late and we managed to dodge it. Once its attack was performed, I grab one of the nearest scales, and using the Versatile Weapon, I forcefully removed it. It wasn't easy to remove as it sticks quite well to the skin of the Pendragon but with the Versatile Weapon, that isn't much of a problem.

With a scale removed, a big spot was revealed to us, a spot where it was only bare skin without any protection. It might just be one scale removed but that is enough. Without waiting for the Pendragon to do anything, I stab the Versatile Weapon into the exposed skin of the Pendragon and activated one skill.

"[Earth Fissure]!"

ROAR!

The skill immediately activated and with it happening inside the body of the Pendragon, the damage was tremendous. The Pendragon howled in pain and slammed its body around, flinging me off. As for the Versatile Weapon, it remained stabbed on the Pendragon and the monster is trying its best to remove it. And despite the [Earth Fissure] being used to it, unlike the most monsters I used it dies immediately due to internal organs being ruptured and minced to pieces, the Pendragon is fine.

I inspected its HP to see how much I managed to inflict against the Pendragon.

[Pendragon](Weakened Sealed State)

Level ???

HP: 2,523,198/????????

With the [Earth Fissure] alone, I managed to inflict at least 400k damage. But that is due to the fact that I already rebuffed it and I used the skill in my own way that I managed to deal damage. But I doubt I can do that a second time.

"Atlas, cover me, I will need to bury the Versatile Weapon deep into the body of the Pendragon. Buy me some time to get real close."

"Gotcha! I got your back!"

Atlas swings his greatsword and made sure to grab the attention of the boss. It didn't take much time until the Pendragon is now focused on Atlas. With his passive that allows him to increase his combat capabilities when fighting alone, He can perform a duel against a single enemy and fight without problems.

Pendragon's attention is now fully focused on Atlas now and has completely forgotten about me already. I checked the cooldown of my [Earth Fissure] and there are about 30 seconds left, enough time rate to perform another attack again,

Before rushing in, I grabbed another [Weakening] scroll and tore it to pieces before running towards the Versatile Weapon still stuck on the wound I made earlier. The Pendragon is moving too much that it made quite a hassle dodging and running around before I can effectively find my way back to near the Versatile Weapon. I am at a distance from it and I thought of something that I want to try out.

I enhanced my legs and focused all my force on my legs and made a leap. It made a bit of a booming sound the moment I leaped and locked my eyes on the Versatile Weapon.

"ORYAAAA!"

Stretching my legs, I made a flying kick and slam down my shoes to the Versatile Weapon's handle. I know my weapon won't be damaged from my attack especially since it doesn't possess any durabilities, any kind of attack movement that would naturally degrade a weapon's durability will not apply to the Versatile Weapon.

BANG!

ROAAAAAARRR!

It made a small shockwave after my kick hit the Versatile Weapon's handle and pushed the blade even deeper. This time, it wasn't just a minor pain, it was a big pain as the moment I struck that real hard, the blood of the Pendragon started spurting out from its body and leaked out like it was overfilled by something and a strong force was applied to it, unleashing a damaging attack.

"I am not done yet!"

I grab the handle of the Versatile Weapon and grasped it tightly. I know it won't just kill the dragon but I have to make sure the Pendragon knows that we are not just something that it can mess with.

"[Earth Fissure]!"

The blood leaking out from the Pendragon's body started to release more streams of blood that made the Pendragon scream more and even on the outside, anyone can hear the blood that seems to be gurgling and the flesh and bones being crushed by the pressure from the [Earth Fissure].

Once the skill was inflicted, my hands exerted a bit more force on the Versatile Weapon and started to drag it while still embedded in the Pendragon's body.

"OOOOOOHHHHHHHH!"

I increased the force of my drag on the sword and as soon as the Versatile Weapon hit a scale, the scale immediately breaks into pieces and reveals more skin. While dragging it, I unleashed the [Flaming Sword] inside the body, increasing more damage inflicted. And to increase my attack more, I activated [Berserk]. Since my old upgrade to the Berserk was revoked, it was back to the basic [Berserk] skill, but that is sufficient enough.

"RIP AND TEAR! DIEEEEEEE!"

Blood and guts started to splurge out as my Versatile Weapon continued to slice through the body of the Pendragon. This time, it is close to dying.

"OOOOOHHHHHHH!"

My [Flaming Sword] blazing red hot is now dyed brightly red as the blood coated the blade of the Versatile Weapon from the blood of the Pendragon.

I continue to drag the Versatile Weapon on its flesh and even if the scales tried to block my slice, it wasn't that strong to resist the sharp blade of my Versatile Weapon.

"This is the end!"

Swish!

The huge wound that I created exploded and blood fall out without stopping. This alone is enough for the high HP of the Pendragon to plummet in split second. A few moments later, the Pendragon tried to swish its tail in its last attempt to retaliate but it wasn't enough and it slowly loses its HP rapidly.

But then...

[Title Effects activated][Instant Death Inflicted]

"Wait, what the heck..."

The title effects were activated and I was baffled. During the times I am in danger, the effects do not even activate, but when I don't really have the needs of it, it would suddenly activate. It doesn't make sense and the timing is just very off at times it's a bit frustrating. But since I killed it, then so be it.

I didn't expect that I will receive that much experience from killing one single dragon that was previously sealed. Of course, if not for the fact that it was weakened and had been previously sealed, then killing it would have been impossible and I would have died there alongside Atlas. But due to the after-effects of the Carnwennan, I managed to do it. Yet despite the amount of experience I earned, that was not enough. It's not even halfway through my level bar now.

"We did it, Atlas..."

"Yes, Master. I didn't expect we would be successful in dealing the final blow on the monster before it can recover. Not only that but I received a few levels ups too. It was quite a rewarding kill."

"Damn, lucky you. The experience I gained did not even have a small glimmer of being able to move my progress bar of mine. Perhaps if we hunted more monsters in similar rating as this Pendragon then perhaps I can level up."

"Don't give up Master. You are getting stronger anyways so just be sure to keep on fighting and winning."

I sighed. The amount is getting ridiculous and the number has ramped up quite a lot. It might even reach the point where leveling up will take a lot of years, who even knows, it might also cause me to stay at this level for the remainder of my life playing the game.

Guts haven't returned yet so I opened my inventory and inspected the items I received. I also noticed that I managed to earn 500 billion gold by killing the Pendragon alone. That is already quite a big deal. It's even bigger than the amount of gold I received from selling the first Guild Token which is a bit terrifying.

Now, time to check the spoils, I found two of the drops inside the Items Pocket which are the two Pendragon Eyes and the five hundred pieces of Pendragon Scales. The eyes can be used for item crafting or potion brewing while the scales can definitely become part of item creation or even accessory and armor creation whichever of those choices, both are fine choices.

But I am quite sure I got one more drop other than those two so I searched it up. Then, I realized it wasn't even in the items pocket because it was a different drop. It's a weapon.

The only problem is that, for some unknown reason, I can't choose it. Whatever I do, I can't take it out, drop it or remove it from my inventory. But based on the picture of the photo which I read earlier as the [Pendragon Spine], it looks like Scythe to me.

Is this for the new class? Perhaps, because in the future patch, a few more classes will be added and one of them is a scythe-wielding class which is the Reaper.

Now, the next thing I needed to do is get rid of the carcass of the Pendragon. As much as I want to butcher it up and dismantle its parts, it was too big and I don't think my inventory space will be able to even handle the number of items it can generate if I dismantle it. As much as it was a waste, I won't be able to bring all of them all anyway which will be another waste.

Because I don't want the monsters to come running here after the Pendragon died, I needed something that will allow me to remove the dead body and remove the blood of the Pendragon. Then, I turned to look at my Versatile Weapon.

The greed and gluttony of this thing have been showing nowadays especially when it managed to gain a body. It is not only devouring weapons, armor, and other equipment, it also devours monsters and other things like the black mana. And as much as I don't have to associate this weapon with the Greed and Gluttony Weapons of the Seven Deadly Sins series, I can't help but think that this weapon might be indeed part of the Seven Deadly Sins Weapon Series.

I know I am benefitting the way this weapon has its bottomless stomach, but I also can't help but fear it. After all, Greed and Gluttony are very compatible combinations and they complement each other.

Without any other choice, I pulled the Versatile Weapon back out from its scabbard and aimed it at the dead body of the Pendragon. My action alone made the creature inside the Versatile Weapon react and it started salivating from the sight of the Pendragon's carcass even though I haven't given permission, it is now very eager to open its mouth.

"[DEVOUR]!"

The shadow dragon smirked and extended its body to open its giant mouth. It was big, much bigger than the dead body of the Pendragon. Anyone who witnesses this for the first time would be very terrified to see a weapon that devours things and weapons like that.

CHOMP!

In one snap, it shut its giant mouth and the dead body of the Pendragon disappeared. I thought that was it but then the Shadow Dragon started licking its mouth as it stares at the pool of blood on the ground. It should have been done with the devouring but for the first time, it seems it wasn't just satisfied by the carcass, it also wanted the blood. The shadow dragon turned to look at me with anticipation as it alternates its eyes to the pool of blood and to me.

"Uh... [Devour]?"

The Shadow dragon seems to have been delighted and it immediately went straight to the pool of blood. I thought it would drink the blood which is "devouring" it but to my surprise, the shadow dragon did not do that, instead, it dives into the water and started to waddle into the pool of blood like a duck that seems very eager to swim in a puddle.

It was a bit silly of the shadow dragon as it playfully bathe itself in the pool of blood and it didn't mind how sticky and a bit disgusting it was. It was enjoying it to its finest and I can say this is the main definition of a Bloodbath seeing how it is bathing in blood but that is not even a pun, I mean, just look at that since it was literally doing it.

"Uh, Atlas, can you explain to me what is happening?"

"I don't know about this master, but it looks similar to how it is trying to absorb the essence of the blood into its body."

"Absorbing the essence from the blood?"

"Yes. Do you know Blood Monarchs?"

"Yeah. I have some knowledge of them but I haven't seen one yet personally."

"Then that would save us time to explain things. Just like the Blood Monarchs, this kind of practice is to absorb the energy and power that is flowing in the blood. It was one of the main reasons why Blood Monarchs like to kill and gather the blood of their victims before bathing using the blood they have gathered. Now, I don't know what your weapon is doing and why it looks like it was waddling into the pool of blood like a dog but because it was very similar, I think it was indeed absorbing the essence present in the blood of the Pendragon. After all, it is better to do it like that than to drink it like juice."
