Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 121: Silver wolf and wilderness cave

It's Grays evolution which I've been waiting for! I can't wait to see what he becomes.

Let's take a quick look.

Silver Wolf

There's only one, so there's no need to get lost! Let's take a look at the description.

Silver Wolf

A wolf with beautiful silver fur. Its fur can be raised to the hardness of silver and it has the speed of a gale. It attacks its enemies with silver claws and silver fangs and the roar of the silver wolf blows its enemies away.

That's a lot of abilities. It's going to be so strong! I can't wait! Let's evolve!

Gray's figure is now the same size as mine and his fur is a beautiful silver color. His figure is imposing, like the king of wolves.

"You look cool, Gray"

"Gau"

Gray bumps his head against mine. I wonder if he's appealing to me to pet him. When I pet him, I see that his fur is smooth and silky. Fluffy is nice, but silky is also nice.

"Let Lily touch too~Gray~"

When Lily tries to touch him, Gray quickly ducks and uses me as a shield.

"Why won't you let me touch you!?"

Lily is shocked, but I think the first choking incident has traumatized him.

Well, I guess I'm going home for the day.

As I'm thinking this, Gray tugs at my robe. Did you find something?

I looked at Gray and saw the hole where the King Cobra was hiding. Since we're here, let's take a peek. Just in case, I changed the members. In place of Kotetsu and Byakuya, I summon Gale and Yuuga.

As we approach, we see that it's a huge hole. It's like a cave...or rather, it's a cave. With Gray in the lead, we begin our search.

We quickly found a mining point. Is it red clay again? I thought it might be red clay again, but what I got was an earth-based stone.

Gray! Nice! You're the best! As a reward, I'll make you some honey juice when we get back!

But this cave wasn't just any cave. Gray and Yuuga were alerted to something. An enemy?

Multiple flying glass skulls appeared. I'll try to identify them.

Glass Skull Lv8

Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active

Just like that, huh? But these glass skulls were no ordinary skulls.

They suddenly shot fireballs at me. Great!

When I got motivated, Gray, who was in the lead, accumulated something. What is it?

"Wooon!!"

Gray shouted and at the same time, a shockwave was generated, obliterating the fireballs and blowing away the glass skulls.

That's how the glass skulls died.

Eh? One blow? Isn't that strong?

I was immensely impressed by Gray's strength, but I tried to dismantle them anyway.

As expected, they dropped silica and limestone. And there were quite a lot of them.

I guess this is it. That means I'll have to kill a lot of glass skulls here! If Gray's here, there's no problem!

There are mining points here and there and we hunt glass skulls as we mine. By the way, those glass skulls were a one-hit wonder even without Gray. I thought it was a bonus monster, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be that easy.

An unseen abnormal condition has occurred in Kitsuneko. It was a curse. It seems that if you defeat a glass skull, it has a chance of entering this state. It's a very skull-like ability.

The effect of the curses abnormal condition seems to be the invalidation of buffs and recovery. It's okay because these guys are small fish, but it's an unpleasant abnormal condition. You don't need to cure it here.

As I was exploring in a languid mood, Gray and the others were on the alert. It's okay! No matter how many glass skulls come my way, I don't feel like I'm losing.

As I rounded a corner, I saw a huge bone. What's this? Let's try to identify it.

Skull Orthros?

? ? ?

I'm sorry for getting carried away! I'll just go home!

"Return!"

Failed due to the effect of the curse

...Return is also a nullification target, isn't it? I'm sorry for underestimating the effect of the curse.

Because of the spell I cast, Skull Orthros turns to me. Hello.

"...Takuto"

"Ah. Let's get out of here!"

"Yeah!"

We're making a mad dash for the exit. Damn it! The curse must be wearing off soon!

The Skull Orthros is chasing us, making rattling noises.

Damn it. I still can't escape! In the first place, Orthros is a monster from Greek mythology and the meaning of its name is fast. There's no way I can escape.

"Gaa!"

Gray's warning! What will Skull Orthros do?

I turn around to see flames closing in on us. Just in time!

"Earth Wall!"

An earth wall appears just in time to prevent it, but footsteps are coming closer. Can it move while spitting fire?

"Not good! It's no use. We'll just have to fight our way out of here and buy ourselves some time!"

"All right!"

I tried to change the members, but the curse interfered again. Ah, that's annoying!

I thought about Legion summon, but this is a cave, it's not big enough and the opponent is a monster. If I use Legion summon, I might be able to buy some time, but it would probably cause a lot of damage. It's selfish of me, but I don't want to do that in this situation.

It was hard for me to think about the other members of the group, but I decided to do something about it.

"When the earth wall breaks, we'll set it up! Gray roar, Gale lightning magic, Kitsuneko fire magic! I know it's dangerous for Yuuga, but see if there's an opening and attack!"

"""Gau!"""

"Koon!"

"Lily, pseudo-dragon! Ready? You don't have to win. Just buy us some time"

"Yeah!"

When Lily uses pseudo-dragonification, the earth wall breaks down and a two-headed dog in bone form appears. This guy is Skull Orthros...it's too big!? But I can't help but be surprised!

"Now! Splash!"

"Woon!"

"Gaaa!"

"Koon!"

Countless water bombs, shockwaves, lightning and fireballs hit Skull-Orthros, but they don't do any damage. It's a level that barely hits the shock wave and flutters. Yuuga bites in that gap.

However, even as Yuuga is biting, Skull Orthros builds up something. That's not good!

"Lily! Stop it! Yuuga, get away!"

"I got it! Takuto!"

"Gau!"

Lily uses her fighting spirit and readies her sword.

"Dragon technique, dragon claw!"

Lily's dragon claw hit directly and succeeded in keeping a distance from Skull Orthros.

However, I think we could finally earn a distance with this maximum firepower technique.

And I've found it. Skull Orthros's accumulation hasn't been canceled yet!

Why...no, it's worse than that!

"Gray! Take care of Lily! Kitsuneko, illusion!"

"Gau!"

"Koon!"

Gray enters Lily's defense with the speed of a gale. I don't know what's coming, but this better come off!

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaa!!"

Skull Orthros's roar echoes, creating a shockwave. That guy could use a roar too!

Oh no! The range is huge!

Just as I thought that, Gale, Yuuga and Kitsuneko jumped out in front of me. ...Everyone.

"Kyaaaaaa!? Uguu!?"

"Guhaa!?"

I was blown away by the roar of Skull Orthros and crashed into the wall of the cave.

I've lost all the durability value of my piranha robe and I'm back to the robe I had at the beginning. My cypress staff was barely intact, but Lily's werewolf large sword was broken.

However, I survived thanks to Gale, Yuuga and Kitsuneko acting as my shield and Lily is safe thanks to the effects of pseudo-dragonification and Gray's protection. I'm not sure if Gray is ironclad or not. His silky fur has become tickly and it seems to have reduced the damage, so he's safe.

But they were all wounded. The next time they get hit by something, it's over. I looked at their status and saw that the curse had been removed from me, Gray and Lily. In this state, we can make a return! It wasn't in vain that they risked their lives!

"Return!"

Return is activated. This time it was my complete mistake to ignore Gray and the others' warning. I need to reflect on that. It's a big mistake, I could say I killed Gale and the others.

But...I'm looking at you, Skull Orthros.

We cant beat you now. But we'll hunt you down someday!

I vowed to do so and when I returned to the store, I heard information. If you lose, you won't get any experience, but you will get experience for using your skills.

Earth Magics level has reached 20. Desert Storm and Bottomless Swamp have been acquired

Water Magics level has reached 20. Aqua Wall and Water Prison have been acquired

Desert Storm is a sandstorm. It's not the large-scale one we encountered in the wilderness, as you might expect.

Bottomless Swamp is a bottomless swamp. This could have stopped Skull Orthros in his tracks.

Aqua Wall is a water wall spell.

Water Prison means water prison, but what kind of magic is that? If it's a prison made of water, I'll be able to escape quickly...I'm curious, but I'll have to check it out tomorrow.

While I was thinking about this, Ion and the others who found us in shambles were in a panic. This is the first time we've been so completely defeated...it's still frustrating to lose.

Looking at Gale and the others, it looks like it'll take six hours to summon them again. I'll have to apologize to everyone tomorrow and thank them for their help.

"The sword Takuto made for Lily...it's broken..."

Lily is looking at the broken sword. I look at it and think of all the battles it's saved me in. I touch the broken werewolf's large sword.

"Takuto?"

Lily looks at me strangely, but I continue.

"It wasn't Lily who broke you, it was me...you've been a great help to me. Thank you for fighting with Lily so far"

I thanked the werewolf sword and Lily mimicked me.

"I'd like to thank you for fighting with Lily until now...thank you so much"

I pat her on the head, desperately thanking her.

"Takuto?"

"We may not be able to defeat him now, but this sword is one of us. We'll avenge our friends someday, I promise"

"!! Yes! Takuto!"

Lily and I vowed to get revenge against Skull Orthros.

After that, I gave Hephaestus the materials, requested a glass sword and logged out.

Author note:

This was the time of Gray's evolution and the time when Takuto and the others suffered a great defeat.

This is one of the turning points for Takuto and Lily.
