Chapter 1951 1951. Su's Challenges

"It's just a violent lizard. You are weaker than that!?"

The shout was all that Su heard. Rise had stopped being nice and controlled the moment that the two had teleported to the Sigil continent again. Instead, she had become feral if that was even the right word.

The kindness and controlled Rise was letting way to the true nature of a dragon. This wasn't because Rise was cruel, but because she was focused on discovering the light dominator dragon ruins. She also knew that Su needed to be challenged properly if anything else.

Therefore, Rise did not hold herself back and pushed Su to fight monsters well over her limits. For a perfect example, Su was fighting the earth affinity violent lizard with very high defensive powers.

This wasn't the normal challenge that everyone would expect. For Su, it was one that she could not turn down. She was a defender of the entire party and now multiple races. If she were to lose to a monster that had tougher defenses, wouldn't that be an insult?

This wasn't an example of Su letting the dragon instincts taking over, it was a fair and clear example of her instincts and the dangers she had to deal with now. This challenge was just a? single step in the entire path to being able to properly protect everyone.

What really was happening between them, was that like many monsters, this violent lizard had a trace of dragon blood. Because Su did not use the dragon blood now in her body, the lizard had seen her as prey. A way to get stronger by accumulating mire dragon blood overall.

This was just the way of monsters on the Sigil continent. Everyone who had come here knew this. But Su had not realized how protected she was by having Midnight around her. Because Midnight had been around, these monsters had understood a syringe monster was around tem. Regardless of Midnight being part of the dragon race or not.

But now that Rise was covering herself and hiding the fact that she was a dragon, then Su was out in the open. A seemingly weak dragon blood holder that could be eaten easily because of her smaller size.

Rise knew this well and pushed Su with words of insult and determination. This was the same challenge that other draconic guardians would go through after they had managed to be able to take over the rituals. They would need to prove that they had established themselves. Accepted the more powerful existence that they were becoming.

Normally this journey could take years or more. Bit for Su, it was being pushed to a more intense level. Especially since she was a hero who already had begun doing so without a dragon encouraging her.

What Rise had not told Su, was that she believed Su to be the best person to protect anyone. She had seen the way that Su thought. A calm and compressed method of growing stronger through learning and adapting. nove/lB.1n

That had been the case when she watched Su and Alice fight. Flexible changes to form and technique in battle styles. A method to the madness of learning new skills that would normally be tough for many people.

The light shield skill had already piqued Rise's interest. It was a skill that allowed for healing and protection using the light mana in the air. Rise could do something similar. It was why she had pushed Su to learn more against Alice in the first place. The casual words that no one else took as seriously as Su.

But when the earth mana also joined the light mana, Rise understood that the benefits of a dragon champion having all affinities was more than even she knew. When she saw that Su possessed a massive ability to resist all elemental manas, that thought only bloomed.

"That tail is going to break your body! Break that tail first!"

Rise roared out as Su dodged the spiked tail of the violent lizard. The earth had bent around that tail to form sharpened spikes that could easily break through metal or other forms of defenses. Especially other hides or scales.

Su rolled forward slinging her armor with a single pinch of clasps. She was doing this intentionally to speed herself up. She knew that the changes in agility would radically change the battles she had. This was the advantage of being able to easily alter her battle style. Shocking an opponent and being able to beat them in this way was just part of her adaptable skill.

As she dashed forward after the roll, Su reared up in a lap before slamming the pointed ends of her repaired twin shields down. This caused the violent lizard to release a massive screech of pain. It hadn't naturally released its tail to flee, but now it was beginning to think that it should flee.

The tail had been severed and Su did not let upo. The lizard had been distracted in this pain. The violence that it had was unable to reach Su since she had dropped weight from her body. The armor just sat watching for its wielder to return.

When the next attack came from above it, the violent lizard screeched again. Su had gone right for the back of the neck. Behind the toughened earth armor it had pulled from the ground on to its body. The beck was always a weak point. And Su used her shields to attack it constantly.

Five stabs of her shields ended the fight right there before Su saw Rise move up in her dragon form. "I remained hidden to avoid distraction. That was a decent battle." Rise used her claws to pull off the skin of the violent lizard and left it for Su. She ate it quickly to replenish her energy. But Su was confused as to what to do with the lizard skin after Rise had eaten the lizard body.

"That skin will have meat on the edges. Eat it and leave the sin to return to nature. We can not take it with us." Rise was clearly waiting for Su to eat.

Instead of being disgusted with the raw meat, she was actually starving. She had fought like this over seven times so far. Her body needed food much more than she could care right now about it. What she hadn't realized, was that her body had been enhanced more than she knew. Especially internally.

Her internal organs could easily deal with these sorts of raw meat. Now that she was able to eat it, she didn't hesitate. She let her instincts work. Su ate what she needed as fast as possible. When that was done, she saw that Rise had used the light to blend back in tot he surrounding forest. It was easy to see that there was no way that Rise could get caught in the air or in the ground.

The high degree of control that Rise had was immense. She could hide right in front of someone suing the light mana that she controlled. Something that Su could never think of doing with her measly control.

"Seven more monsters heard you fighting and are coming to scavenge the scraps. Defend your prey or run. What will it be?"

Su smiled widely. Her teeth showed with a sharper glint than before. Her eyes were slits just the same as a dragon's and the heat in her chest grew as she was ready to fight again. "Not a single weak monster will be touching my food."

"That's a real dragon's answer. You are used to the tame world of humans. Of protection. Let the wild dragon that flows in your blood speak for the first time. Now we run toward the ruins I have sensed." Rise had sensed the quins some time again. But she had waited for Su to grasp her internal instincts.

As the two ran, smaller monsters appeared. They were like dogs but had darker fur and a rotting smell around them. They were after the remains, specifically, the tail the violent lizard left behind. But with Su moving in her special battle style, she broke the snouts of every single monster before they could pass by her.

This was a brutal style, but it mimicked the way that a dragon might fight in real life. It was brilliant. It stood out. It Was dragon!

Su felt the energy in her body growing as she fought. The intense desire to stand above the others who dared attack her. When she eventually roared out with a flame breath, she finally found the balance she had been looking for. Rise didn't speak. She didn't have to. She could feel it. A draconic guardian becoming one with the wild dragon they had accepted in to their being.
