184. Do You Like Me, or the Dragon Egg?
The moment the magic was completed, the entire plain was left with only a flash of light and white.
Dragon Slayer’s black scales showed devastating cracks, constantly falling off his body, his flesh collapsing, and he let out a chilling roar.
Dragon Slayer had claimed that he could only be killed by the Goddess of Light, but this was the first time he had been injured by [Dorricati’s Burial].
“Awoo—!”
Then the domain shattered.
[Dorricati’s Burial] was one of the Goddess of Light’s strongest skills.
A super-powerful magic that combined sealing magic and damage, prepared for dealing with powerful single enemies, it often had the strongest destructive power against a single target. Reina still remembered once using this move to kill some nascent gods, and also some alien creatures who wanted to invade this world.
Once, there was an existence named “Dorrica” who intended to seize Reina. This was a skill specially prepared for this powerful being. Reina found it troublesome, so she later named this move after “Dorrica.”
The only price was that the consumption was too great.
Dorricati’s Burial consumed 90% of Reina’s power, and with the influence of Vassal Instinct, it could basically put Reina into a half-depleted state. Therefore, Reina’s Light Clone directly dissipated after one blow.
She might not even be able to stand for a few days.
Her consciousness was completely transferred to her main body, and she lay limply on the dragon egg.
Then, her brow furrowed slightly.
“Damn it…”
“Did I fail?”
Reina could feel it.
Although it was after meticulous calculation, she had still analyzed all of Dragon Slayer’s weaknesses at the last moment, and finally calculated that even if she used all her strength with Dorricati’s Burial, she couldn’t completely kill him.
Level 190.
Was he a monster?
But having survived from the Primordial Era until now, it wasn’t completely without reason.
From the beginning of the operation, Reina had temporarily formulated a plan, confirming the action plan with the highest probability and the smallest sacrifice, just to completely eliminate the threat of Dragon Slayer. But now, she discovered that it wasn’t that simple.
“Damn Dragon Slayer, damn it…”
Reina muttered to herself, a little angry.
But to avoid passing these resentments to the dragon baby, she gently patted the dragon egg and sang softly, “Baby, be good, baby, be good~ Mama will sing for you~”
“Hehe…”
However.
It seemed that seeing the dragon egg had made her mood much better.
Reina discovered that this time, it wasn’t a complete waste.
[Devour]
Reina discovered that the ability she had almost forgotten was actually useful!
Back in Wood Village, Reina had personally witnessed Calysia devouring other demons. If she, as a vassal, could also learn this skill, then leveling up shouldn’t be difficult.
Reina had [devoured] Dragon Slayer’s power this time.
Her Light level had directly reached 81.
In other words, the current Reina was already a level 180 existence.
As for Dragon Slayer, even if he wasn’t dead, he was crippled.
His scales were destroyed by Dorricati’s Burial, and he was basically on the verge of death.
Logically, he would self-heal after a period of time, but the damage caused by Dorricati’s Burial would accompany him for a long time. The next time they met, he would have more weaknesses due to the recurrence of his old injuries.
“But I still regret it…”
Reina said again.
But seeing the dragon egg, she chuckled again, and even licked it gently, then wagged her tail and sang a song.
It seemed she had fallen into some kind of cycle.
She first planned to create a new Light Clone as a proxy. After all, before “Light” and “Dragon Mark” were completely separated, someone had to carry that part of the light. After all, the memory fragments of the Goddess of Light were still in the process of being digested. Without a suitable carrier, this progress would become extremely slow.
Reina had another guess before, that the use of memories and abilities was also related.
To completely get rid of this trouble, she either had to wait for the memory fragments to be digested, or she had to level up her Dragon Mark to 100 in advance.
But being taken by Calysia… after making so many mistakes, she didn’t know how the Dragon Mark could continue to upgrade.
A level 100 Dragon Mark, would something irreversible happen?
She had a feeling that her [prayer] was losing its resistance to mental submission. What would she be like when she completely submitted…
“Little Reina~”
With the sound of the wind, Calysia retracted her dragon wings and landed gracefully in front of the bedchamber door, gently pushing it open… she was home.
Her speed was very fast, probably able to cross the entire continent in a few minutes.
Seeing Reina’s weak state, Calysia first came over and kissed her caringly.
“Mmph… Master, so, did Light say anything to you?”
“Of course.”
“Let’s go take a bath first!”
Smelling the “snow scent” on Calysia, Reina looked at Calysia with disdain, and the latter had no choice but to comply.
After her bath, Calysia took off her stockings and also lay down on the bed.
“Light and I, she will persist to the end. You still have to continue to ‘educate’ her.”
Calysia’s task was to stall Light.
She wouldn’t allow Reina to casually kill one of her great generals, and now Reina had no chance to explain to her. But Reina had already had Calysia “hint” at her to be careful of the first Elven King.
It felt more tiring than raising a daughter… Reina complained. To avoid upsetting the dragon egg, she patted it gently, and then placed a sailboat toy model she had nearby directly above the dragon egg. This way, the dragon baby would surely be very happy.
“By the way!”
Reina suddenly remembered something and bumped against Calysia with her body.
“Little Vassal, what’s wrong?”
“My Light Clone, I can’t use it for now, I guess… after the Dragon Mark reaches level 100, I won’t have this concern, right?”
“Mmm,” Calysia nodded.
“So,”
Reina blushed, not knowing how to express her next request.
“Master, you like me a lot, right? No… that’s not how I should ask.”
Reina mustered her courage. Although she really wanted to say it, her throat felt like it was blocked by a stone.
“Of course I like my Little Vassal. What’s wrong?”
Calysia said, even moving closer to Reina.
“This way… I…”
“Do you like me, or do you like the dragon egg?”
Reina’s face was so red it was like a steam furnace.
“Of course I like both.”
“You have to choose one!”
“Mmph,” Calysia fell into deep thought.
It seemed that no matter which one she chose, Reina wouldn’t be happy.
“Forget it, you don’t understand.”
Reina shook her head in anger.
“Help me with something, it’s not a big deal… It’s just that my Light Clone can’t be summoned for now, and my movements are inconvenient.”
“Mm-hmm.”
“I might have to go out and do some business here, it’s just that… the plan has been a bit much lately… Although it’s nothing, it’s very troublesome, understand?”
“Okay~”
“So,”
Reina bared her teeth, trying her best to endure, so as not to lose her elegance.
But when she looked up at her master, she still couldn’t help but look shy:
“Master… can you help me… incubate the egg?”
