Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 327: Forest of Chaotic Illusions! Part-2.

”These things look so strange... How about I just blast them all off with a breath attack by turning back into my dragon form...”

Selain glanced at the massive pack of giant flying eagles with a look of caution.

The eagles looked more like they were some kind of mutated beast or some kind of chimera.

Snake heads were protruding out of their bodies, which made the mutated eagles look so weird and strange.

”They are spread over several kilometers; if we take a detour, it will take us a lot of time, and if you use such a massive attack, it will attract the attention of more of them...”

”Itʼs better to just power through them in one go...”

Hearing Liaʼs words, Selain nodded her head and said,

”Well, letʼs see who can make it through the siege first... I am sure of my sword skills; donʼt underestimate me, okay?”

Lia also smiled a bit and said,

”Well, of course! That goes without saying... letʼs go!”

The silver wings behind her back flapped, and Lia launched at the pack of mutated eagles like

an arrow.

The flap of her wings alone created a massive sonic boom in the air, and her flying speed was insanely fast.

[Silver Lion Swordsmanship: Obliteration Type: Spiral Rush!]

Lia raised her sword in front of her and started to spin like a drill machine. She directly pierced through whatever came in her way.

Her pierce attack was so powerful that she directly blasted holes, passed right through the bodies of the giant mutated eagles, and didnʼt even sustain a single injury.

The giant eagles fell to the ground as their internal organs started to spurt out from such a massive hole in their bodies.

Some died on the spot after being pierced, and the others fell to death.

Lia had covered herself in the spirit aura, and thus her clothes didnʼt even get dirty from the blood as the aura worked like a barrier for her.

ʼThis technique seems more optimal for short-range rush... sigh, but I still lack speed when compared to Rio...ʼ

While Lia was contemplating her technique, Selain raised her sword above her shoulder and swung it downward.

[Golden petal sword art: Descending Golden Sea!]

Selainʼs mana condensed on the sword and turned into the shape of petals that were golden in color, and thousands of petals launched at the massive flock of mutated eagles in the form of a sword arc.

Each of those petals represented a separate strike from the sword.

When the eagles got hit by it, they split apart into hundreds of pieces and fell down instantly. The other eagles were so frightened that they ran off on their own.

Seeing that the path was clear, Selain flew over to Liaʼs side slowly and said with a smile,

”It seems I was too slow; you win...”

Lia shook her head and said,

”That matter aside, your sword art is quite unique... Itʼs just as beautiful as it is deadly...” Selain nodded her head and said,

”Well, itʼs a sword art created by the first Dragon King himself and then perfected by several generations of SS-rank Dragons of the Golden Dragon lineage...”

”This sword art took me a decade to learn... Itʼs complicated and very difficult; I doubt that itʼs even suitable for anyone but the golden Dragons...”

Only Golden Dragons have the right to become the next ʼDragon Kingʼ, and in the current century, Selain is the only young Golden Dragon.

Which means that she is the heir to the whole dragon valley and will likely become the next dragon king; thus, itʼs not strange that sheʼs quite talented and strong.

Lia and Selain started to fly towards the ʼCoreʼ as they continued to talk.

”Just from the looks of it, it looks unpredictable and difficult to dodge; itʼs like hundreds of attacks combined in one...”

ʼI am sure Rio will be interested in such unique sword art, but still, I doubt she can land a hit on him with just this...ʼ

Selain nodded her head at Liaʼs words and said,

”Well, of course! The reason why I dare say that I have never been defeated by my peers in the Dragon Valley is because of my mastery of this sword art; itʼs very unpredictable and very difficult to dodge-”

*krarrrrrrragggg!!*

Just when the two were still chatting with each other, a gigantic mutated eagle suddenly crawled out of a hidden cave in the forest below.

Just by looking at it from a distance, you can tell that this thing is more than two hundred meters in size.

Itʼs so big that both Lia and Selain were taken aback by it.

”What is going on with this place!? Why are there so many mutated creatures here!?”

The giant mutated eagle has three massive snake heads on its body, and it looks extremely ferocious.

”It looks like hurting the other eagles caused it to get angry; perhaps this is the mother of the other eagle who got angry after sensing us kill its children-”

[Golden Petal Sword Art: Triple-Layer Parry!]

Selain stopped talking and immediately swung her sword in front of her three times to create a field of golden petals to parry the massive claw attack that came at her out of nowhere.

The giant mutated eagle that was so far away on the ground suddenly teleported in front of her and tried to attack her with a claw attack; if not for the fact that she was in alert mode, she would have never sensed that surprise attack.

The golden petals not only parried the claw attack; some of them hit the leg of the eagle and caused some minor scratches.

”It has ʼShort-rangeʼ teleportation skill!? This is insane!!”

Selain was extremely shocked by that Eagle.

A ʼShort-range teleportationʼ skill can teleport you to any location that is in your sight, and itʼs extremely useful in combat, but this skill is extremely rare.

Usually only SS-rankers can awaken it after reaching the realm of demi-gods and becoming capable of being the space-time fabric.

But this mutated eagle is clearly just a mere peak. Itʼs an A-rank beast, so itʼs quite shocking that it has such a rare skill.

...

Seeing that its attack had failed, one of the three snake heads on its body glanced towards Lia, and the whole body teleported right behind Lia, and two of its snake heads tried to bite and poison Lia in that moment.

But Lia was prepared for it; she had seen the mutated eagle use this technique on Selain, so she was ready to counter it.

[Silver Lion Swordsmanship: Counter Claws!]

Lia swung her sword in a down to up manner, and her sword hit the teeth of the snake, causing

a recoil that pushed her back into the air. Thus, she dodged the attack easily, and she flapped her wings and did a thrust attack to counter.

[Silver Lion Swordsmanship: Armor-piercing sting!]

Silver aura covered Liaʼs sword, and the sword gave the illusion that it had started to bend and

blur.

Liaʼs sword immediately pierced the snake headʼs eyeball through its armored protective skin, instantly destroying it.

The other two snake heads tried to sneak attack Lia from the side, but Selain rushed in to help.

[Golden Petal Sword Art: Obstructive Golden Petal Wall!]

The snakes got hit by the wall of golden petals and got cut and repelled by the golden petals.

Her technique is focused on offense, even when trying to defend.

If an enemy hits those golden petal, they are sure to get hit by a sword cut.

Seeing that the attack was successful, Lia and Selain both flapped their wings and retreated a

few meters in the air.

They avoided the mad frenzy of the eagle, who was now thrashing around madly due to the immense pain of getting an eyeball shattered.

Lia and Selain both took advantage of the opportunity when the Eagle had its back on them as

it was groaning in pain and flying around up and down randomly.

Both of them raised their swords at the same time and attacked at the same time, as if they

were in perfect sync.

[Golden Petal Sword Art: Concentrated Petal Strike!]

[Silver Lion Swordsmanship: Armor-cutting claw strike!]

Both of them hit the neck of the eagle from above at the same time and in the same place, as if

they had planned it before.

Both of their attacks were already very lethal on their own, but when combined, they became many times more deadly, and the neck of the eagle was split apart in an instant.

The mutated eagle fell down and died on the spot. Those snake heads are just separated mutated organs; they can work as its brain; only the eagle head had the brain, and thus the eagle died once its head was cut off.

”Impressive. I am surprised you were able to match my timing so perfectly...”

Lia shrugged her shoulders at Selainʼs words and said,

”Well, I have fought with a guy whose sword is just too fast to match, thus my senses have

been enhanced. I can easily match up with others timing now as they are all much slower...”

Selain sighed at those words and thought to herself,

ʼSigh, I really need to come up with a proper counter to Rioʼs speed; otherwise, I will lose the

bet against him very easily...ʼ

”Then, could you tell me what the weakness of the super-fast guy you are referring to is?”

Lia rolled her eyes at those words and said, ”Weakness... hmm... I guess his addiction to ʼTeaʼ can be considered one, right? If you offer him some good tea, he will be willing to talk to you much longer... W-wait! Why am I telling

this to my rival!?”

”Forget I said anything!”

Selain sighed at those words and said,

”I was asking about ʼweaknessesʼ in terms of combat...”

At that, Lia just shrugged her shoulders and said,

”I have yet to find that myself... He has too many tricks up his sleeve...”
