Dragon King's Harem Chapter 49. Pyro Temple

  As expected, once we ehe barrier the monsters' attention was fixed on us."ROOOOOAAAHHHH!" Their loud cries echoed into the sky, warning the others that someone had broken through the barrier. Uhe previous monsters, the monsters around the sacred pce were the guardians of the pd they were the maio of mana from the sacred pce itself to protect it from evil people who wao 'pollute' the pce as well as a test for the intruders, whether they had the right set their foot into that pce or not.

  Luckily, none of them could fly. So as long as I could trol my movements well, I should be able to beat them. I swung my hand forward and the ons uowards the closest moo me. My bazooka and revolvers fired by themselves. While I fpped my wings to fly above them.

  Seeing my attack, the moried to repel it with their fire skills. Large fmes burst out of their mouths, but we were able to dodge easily by flying higher since I had the aerial advahe dozens of fire spikes u us as hundreds of sparks flew their way towards us."Barrier!"

  Evelina swung one of her hands forward and her floating staff that followed us, glowed and created a transparent wall in front of us.

  At the same time, some annous appeared in front of me since I mao nd my ons and my shots at them.

  [Overkill!][You have cut a Fme Lizard for 480 HP] X2[You have shot a Firoyote for 477 HP] X2[You have shot a Firoyote for 475 HP] X2[You have shot a Fire Rattlesnake for 474 HP][A Fire Rattlesnake is in heavy bleeding effect.][Its HP will decrease by 5 points per sed][Its Speed will decrease by 80%.][You have cut a Fme Lizard for 482 HP][You have cut a Fme Lizard for 479 HP]

  Some of the monsters died, but it was different from the usual monsters. They turned into fire mana and disappeared. As for the mohat was affected by the bleeding effect, instead of blood, what came out of the wound was a red flow of mana, as if it was smoke ing out of its tainer.

  Meanwhile, due to their attack whided on Evelina's Mana Barrier, I could see that the transparent wall was about to break."Barrier!" I anded as I took over her Mana Barrier in my Telekiic skill.

  [One Mana Barrier is in your trol]

  As the new Mana Barrier appeared before me, I threw the old Mana Barrier at the previous Fire Rattlesnake. In one movement, the transparent barrier acted like a guillotine bde, separating the monster's head in one ssh.

  My wings tio fp, carrying Evelina and myself as if we were dang in the sky with the two suns as our spotlights, letting the dry air brush our faces and hair. I manoeuvred skillfully in the mid-air, shifted our bodies side to side, letting their attacks past us. My eyes were fixed on the mass of monsters below me who were turning the sand below us into hot, r embers. I focused my tration since I had to attack, defend and dodge, also making sure there weren't any other attacks from the sky.

  My ha moving as I used my Telekiic skill to throw my Mana on at them as well as Evelina's Mana Barrier as my supplementary on. Meanwhile, like before, Evelina used her Mana Barrier and trated her tration to protect me from all sides, but still ... She couldn't block all the attacks of the more than one hundred monsters below us since more and more monsters were arriving from around the temple. And Eir, just like me, he flew and dodged the enemy's attacks as he threw his Frost Bolt at the monsters. Even though his level was much higher than those of monsters, with their huge numbers it was quite troublesome.

  It had been a while since we had been fighting and I could feel my Mana was decreasing rapidly since I had been using my skills non-stop, as well as Evelina and Eir. Our sweat dripped from our foreheads to our s. The clothes we were wearing were getti with sweat. Our breath began to pant due to fatigue. But slowly the number of monsters was reduced aed.

  As the st Fire Rattlesnake's head separated from his body, an annou appeared before me.

  [All enemies have beeed!][Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!][You are now Level 43. HP +200, Mana + 80, ATK and MATK + 20, DEF and SPD +8]

  [HP: 2350/2350] [Mana: 880/880][ATK: 260]   [M.ATK: 260][SPD: 114]   [DEF: 114]

  I fpped my wings and flew towards the stone building.

  As our feet nded in the tre of the stoage of the temple, we dropped ourselves and sat down to catch our breath. No one said a word after that, there was only the sound of ed breath, even though our HP and Mana were full right now, since Evelina and Eir also rose 1 level from the fight earlier.

  "Do I o take our water supplies, Your Majesty?" asked Eir after we were silent for a minute. His gasping breath was clearly heard between his words.

  "It's fine," I said as I got bay feet and ighe rest of my tiredhat was biting my body."Besides, I don't want to stay in this pce too long," I tinued. We only had 20 mio pray before the monsters reappeared. Besides that, we also had to return to the city before nightfall.

  "Yes, Your Majesty."

  I walked towards the altar that was actually just a stoablet with a magiation glowed ihe only thing on that stage. My steps stopped in front of it and my hand touched the magiation. An annou appeared before me.

  [New esseected!][Fire sacred pce's essence][Do you want to extract it?][Yes] [No]

  'Yes.'

  A simir magiation appeared under my feet and it also glowed in red just like the formation in front of me.

  [Essence Absorption initiated ...]

  The formatio out sparks that flew upward and swirled around my body. Just like when I was at the Aral Chamber, the sparks turned into fmes that surrounded my body. Then my body absorbed it. In an instant, my body temperature rose, but rather than burnt, I felt a nice warm sensation.

  As the fmes disappeared, an annou appeared in front of me.

  [gratutions! You have acquired a new skill: Fme Pilr!]

  [Fme Pilr (Requires 10 Mana) - Skill used to create a Fire Pilr that sts for 1 mihe number of max pilrs increases by 1 per base level.]

  I pulled my hand and the formation dimmed. Then I turned around."Let's go back," I said.

  Which was answered with a nod from Eir and Evelina. Like before, I hugged Evelina and flew back tauns, but as we got closer I realized something. Several monsters lurked and surrounded our mounts, thinking they were free preys. Several Cruel Cratu also hid in the sand and approached our mounts slowly.

  Meanwhile, sensing danger, auns swept their eyes around them restlessly a out a low growl, without moving from their position."Krrrrrrr!" Even though the wild Yegaun could fight, the tamed Yegaun was different from the wild ohey were traio obey their riders' riders, not to fight.

  Seeing their state, I increased my speed. Since if one of those monsters attacked, even if they were protected by Evelina's Mana Barrier, they would likely go berserk in panic.

  Unfortunately, as that thought crossed my head, a Ruthless Rattlesnake who was nearby suddenly approached them quickly and swung its tail at them.

  - BRAK!

  A loud thud was heard as the mowo tails smmed into the barrier and as I feared, auns stomped their feet and tried to run away in panic, causing them to crash into each other and crash into the barrier, throwing them into chaos.
