Chapter 1953 1953. True Draconic Guardian

The source of what had kept these ruins trapped was right in front of Su. a larger scorpion with a black and ice blue color. It was clearly the parent to the black shadow scorpions living above. But the ruins had been buried and offered this nest. Therefore, the scorpion had been able to make a nest full of young.

Even without it passing on its ice traits to them, the black shadow scorpions had been able to survive. The mother had been an ice shadow scorpion. Able to control ice and shadow. Hiding and injecting its prey with icy venom that could easily freeze and kill many opponents.

Since Su could feel the deathly aura around such a monster, she knew that its venom would effect her more than the black shadow scorpions. She had to resist such a venom if she wanted to survive. it was very clear that without her armor, when she was struck she would be at a disadvantage.

But that might be a good thing. Su saw the scorpion moving toward her. Frost spreading around the area much more. The tone walls had been covered in ice and become dimmer because of the shadows around the scorpions. They sued their darkness mana to affect this place as well. They made it their best place to live.

Therefore, this was also a reason why the light mana left behind by the light dominator dragon was missing. It was covered in ice and darkness mana. These two things blocked it from being able to be easily sensed by Rise who was waiting above for Su to die or to emerge triumphantly.

As the ice shadow scorpion struck out with its larger claws, Su moved backwards. She was fast enough to dodge. Even with frost being to gather on her body. She had trained in cold temperatures before. She had also battle against Walker when they were training.

Walker's frost whip skill and even the cie dragon domain had allowed Su to experience harsher cold. This alone had boosted her natural resistance. With the addition of her dragon blood now being stimulated, the resistances only increased a lot, especially since she could tell that her skin was similar to toughness with the scales of a dragon.

When the scorpion realized that the cold had yet to slow Su down, it was a little angry. It was already fighting a thing that came in and attacked its young. But worse off, it had fallen right in to its nest. The place that it believed was the safest and was its one and only home. Normally, a monster would just attack and kill whatever was so bold. But this scorpion was enraged. It wanted to tear Su to shreds!

"I won't let you try that!" Su mocked the scorpion to make it angrier. She knew that forcing it to get angrier was risky because it was larger than her. Yet, she also knew that it was going to fight her regardless. If she made it distracted and blinded by anger, then it would get reckless in its actions. It might even ignore its own instincts to retreat when she started to attack.

There wasn't a question of if Su could beat this opponent. This monster was here in front of her. Regardless, she had to fight it. She also had to ensure that she made it through this trial. But what Su did not realize while she dodged the claw attacks, was that her heart was beating much more strongly. nove/lB.1n

Her entire body had started to adapt to the cold and the darkness mana oozing around her from the ice shadow scorpion. Its constant use of skills to boost its own attack had begun to allow Su a better method of battle.

Allowing her instincts to begin taking over, Su pushed forward. This sudden change from dodging and deflecting claw attacks made the ice shadow scorpion lash out.

Shadows filled the air around its tail. The blue and black streaked tail arched down toward Su. but with the shadows acting as illusions, Su could not easily dodge or block them. She could only slam the twin shields together and call on the earth to block.

However, another feeling appeared. One that was more annoyed than guarded from danger. This annoying feeling was a normal dragon pride. Syuu suddenly felt that she was being insulted. A mere scorpion was trying to stab her and add its venom? How insulting.

But the earth added to her shield wouldn't do a thing. It would just block for her. So, she let her instincts take hold of the mana around.

Water mana flowed in a sudden flow. It reached Su's twin shields and became a larger ice shield with severely sharp and domination spikes. The tail slammed in to it while the shadows dissipated. But when the scorpion tried to retract its tail, it found that the stinger remained behind.

The stinger had been speared by one of the ice spikes. It was left behind because it was stuck there. The pain caused the ice shadow subscription to screech out as if it was being murdered. The entire ruins shook while every single black shadow scorpion began to run. It had screeched like this when it was extremely hungry or angry. Therefore, the children knew to be far away when they heard this.

But to Rise, this was the sound of music. She knew that seeing these little scorpions rush away was a symbol of Su defeating the reason there were there in the first place. Her slight laughter was unheard by Su who had instinctually dropped the frozen shields and leaped forward.

Her hands flashed with shadows as they were mimicking claws. Sharper claws grew out melded with darkness mana and with earth mana. Su's leap led her to be on the scorpion's back without risk of being stung. She also was out of the way of the claws because the scorpion had been too foolish while in pain to strike out against Su.

The claws Su had created slashed in to the hard carapace of the scorpion. Its ice armor was nothing since Su could also manipulate the water mana that made up the ice. But when she cut in to its back, the ice shadow scorpion pureed to flail and throw her off.

Feeling that she should allow that much, Su jumped up. Unfortunately for the scorpion, Su was still letting her instincts guide her on how to fight in the most brutal and overbearing way. Her deep breath before leaping had been to bring in enough air. The scorpion didn't even understand what was happening when the bright flames burned through its open wounds.

The single roar of victory that Su released next as the ice shadow scorpion died before her as enough for Rise to know it had all ended. She had already taken her dragonkin form and moved within the ruins. Small symbols being enough to guide here to where she should be.

Finding Su standing and panting while looking ahead of her was enough. "I see you have finally found the balance. Letting your human side guide your tactics, your dragon instincts to guide your power. You are a true draconic guardian. One who guards the only true dragon champion. You have just been blinded by your own fears of harming others and limiting yourself by believing you may only be human and always only be human."

Rise spoke in the most positive and matter of fact way that Su had ever heard from her. But when Su saw that the system reflected all of this, she was stunned. Her race said half dragon. Something she had not imagined was possible.

The system also showed that it was not just a draconic guardian system it was the true draconic guardian system. The further Su looked the more that she saw other skills. The shadow claw skill. The earth claw skill. The ice spike shield skill. All of these things had been there but blocked by her own mind. She had been failing to grow as fast as the others because she had not actually been allowing herself to grow at all. She had only seen part of her true strength.

"I was foolish. But I am the half dragon that will protect my family. Rise, thank you." Rise hummed out a bit of a proud growl.

"Even half a dragon is powerful enough. You are young but I believe you may be able to beat me sooner than later." Rise had shown a lot of strictness. Right now, she was showing unmoving pride and warmth. Su felt that Rise truly cared for all that dragons were. She was strict because of her love for her own race. Not because she truly hated anyone or anything. Su could only sense their new bond as Rise moved toward the light left behind for her to find.
