Chapter 89: Slow down

Even though Yasmine could have gotten much better mutations from the offerings of better Gods, she knew that all she needed was her sword and her LifeSkill. She didn't need anything else; it would only detract from her training with the sword.

So, she chose a mutation that would push her swordsmanship to the next level without interference.

She would finally show the fruits of her training.

Yasmine jumped one final time in the sky, with her sword coming from the bottom and rising to the top.

Her blade erupted in a red flame and gave her the boost she needed to perform a somersault twenty feet in the air.

As she did, the flame in her sword created a circle around her body. Sola could see the formation of the dragon in Yasmine's sword, slowly gaining its wings and scales with great quality.

Yasmine's dragon could only be contained to her blade while swinging her weapon. So she would be forced to throw out the flaming dragon because she reached the limit of her swing.

The longer her swing, the more powerful the flaming dragon became. Her swing was very brief on the ground, which limited the development of her dragon, and subsequently, its intensity.

But she didn't have that limitation up in the air. She could perform a continuous swing by rotating in the air and extending her swing with each twirl.

She rotated her body two times, creating a long bodied snake-dragon that rotated around her sword. This attack was much more powerful than what she could contain. Any longer and the fire could seriously burn her skin.

Finally, she stopped turning and landed in the air, with her sword swinging down with fury.

ROAAARRR

The flaming dragon had enough time to develop vocal nodes. It growled like a newborn crying after their birth. It had a long torso like that of a snake with scales that glinted gold red even with flames all over its body.

It slithered across the air and finally landed on the street, burning the puddles of honey asunder. Unfortunately for Sola, pure honey was very much flammable, and with the intense fire from the dragon, it quickly disintegrated into nothing but a brown spot in the street.

It didn't end there. Even after turning the honey into mist, the flaming snake-dragon was still intact. Its matured development allowed it to continue soaring towards its next target: Sola.

The Olympian woman was caught off guard. She underestimated the mutation from the Genesis God, thinking it had no use on the battlefield. She couldn't be more wrong.

She quickly rubbed her hands on her large, bulbous abdomen. Slowly, a strange darkish-yellow substance came out of her glands. When she wiped this strange substance in the air, it quickly hardened and stayed in place! This was a magical beeswax!

With frantic movements, she created a hexagonal cube around her body to protect her from the incoming flaming dragon. It was a testament to her skills and training that she was able to create a defense in such a short amount of time.

However, it seemed she still underestimated Yasmine's strength.

As the flaming dragon hit the defensive wax, it immediately started to catch on fire. It wasn't long before it started to char and melt, creating holes in Sola's protective encasing.

It wasn't long until Sola's entire chariot was engulfed in a fire that rose to ten feet in the air.

She was forced to slow down, finally giving Yasmine the chance to go into first place.

Yasmine stepped into the air and redirected her body to fall perfectly back into her chariot. She didn't waste a second as she took control of the reins and whipped her Bone Horse Canzer.

She watched her chariot pull beside Sola's burning chariot. But that wasn't enough. Yasmine continued to push her mount to the limit until she started to pull away.

"Finally…first place!" she shouted. Joy and happiness filled her face, with the competitive frown nowhere to be seen.

But it seemed that she wouldn't be able to celebrate for long. Sёarch* The Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She suddenly heard an intense beating of drums and hooves behind her. She didn't have to look back to know that Razer Wrekton, the genius of Olympus, was hot behind her tail.

His Gorilla-Horse had both speed and power, using its strangely long arms to run on the ground and increase its speed. It used all four horse legs and the Gorilla's arms to slowly take first place.

Yasmine frustratedly took out her sword and slashed it towards him. A familiar flaming dragon erupted from her sword, with this incarnation being a lot smaller and with a less intense fire.

Razer didn't even mind this attack. He simply used his hand to slap away the dragon as if it was a measly fly.

Yasmine bit her lips. The flaming dragon created from this slash was far from the majesty of the one she created earlier, but it still wasn't something that could be handled using their bare hands. Yet, Razer did. He proved her efforts to be futile under immense strength and talent like his.

Yasmine kept her head down. She knew that she would eventually lose out to him because the difference in their power level was too far away. She dreaded it.

Even though they both had S class LifeSkills, Razer was at the 4th stage Student realm while Yasmine was only at the 3rd.

But she thought she'd at least have a chance to beat him and win first place. However, his casual attitude towards her attack proved that her dream was mere folly.

Then, Razer opened his mouth.

Slow

Yasmine felt her head spin as that word echoed in her mind. And despite her head feeling like it would slip, she still tried to wrestle control of her own chariot.

Unfortunately, even though the Canzer had its blinders on, Razer's 'Word of the All-Father' mutation still overpowered it and commanded her mount to slow down.

Yasmine was helpless as she watched her chariot decelerate. All that effort to gain the slightest bit of lead was gone in an instant all because of one word.

"Nothing personal, Yasmine. But we must prove the superiority of Olympus with this competition. I will win, no matter what it takes."

To ensure their victory, Razer raised his fist and punched the air.

The air compressed at his knuckles and created a shockwave that traveled towards Yasmine at the speed of sound.

The blast knocked off the blinders in her Canzer.
