The dragon's harem



Arad ran toward Xaviin, swinging his fist. The moment it was close to his skull, the lich lifted his palm and deflected it.

CLANG! Jack slipped in from the back, swinging his palm. ZIP! A steel wire wrapped around Xaviin's wrist, pulling him away. "Come here, bones." Jack smiled and swung the wakizashi at the lich's head.

"You're a mere human with no magic," Xaviin growled, opening his jaw and biting Jack's blade. SIZZLE! A faint hint of holy magic started seeping from the blade and burned the lich's teeth.

^What? A holy weapon?^ Xaviin jumped away and pulled a small wand from his wrist. ^I need to move away from them. The spell is about to be completed.^ He flew away.

CRACKLE! Abel flew after him, flapping his devil wings with thunderous lightning, "Fall down," He swung his swords, and Xaviin was forced to block with his arms. SIZZLE! Abel smiled, his holy magic starting to burn Xviin.

There was one reason why Arad put Serin down. He didn't need to be the one delivering holy magic since Abel is here. VROOM! He flew to the sky, swinging his sword at the falling Xaviin.

CLANG! Abel managed to hit the lich's head, while Arad hit the torso. "Arad, let's bring him to the ground."

Air wasn't the best place to fight with weapons after all. To use swords and melee weapons effectively, you need to have support from the ground. And that isn't possible while flying.

"I know!" Arad shouted, spinning and pointing his hand at the ground [Gravity magic] He created a cylindrical zone of gravity magic beneath Xaviin, pulling him to the ground at rapid speed.

BAM! As the lich smacked into the ground, Jack and Merdia ganged up on him, taking hits and looking for his phylactery. A small object that he uses as a core to hide his soul.

Xaviin tried to retreat, but Arad fell on his skull with a drop kick. Abel followed soon with a lightning-fast slash.

^I'm dying once again. This is the third time,^ Xaviin growled inside, Arad punching him from the left, Abel stabbing him from the back at Merida trying to cleave his head while Jack tied him in place with wires, looking for the weak point.

Xaviin lifted his wand, aiming at Merida. But before he could blast her, Arad punched him in the face. Abel quickly followed with a lightning bolt, and Merida slashed again.

^They are faster than me. I need to find an opening and get away.^ Xaviin jumped back, but he got kicked back down. ^They aren't even letting me move, not a single opening that I can exploit.^

^What a bad situation, I'm in. I won't last long like this.^ But, he started giggling inside, his eyes looking at the clouds. ^This is death.^ He could feel his spell finish. And the burden on his mind lifted up.

In the blink of an eye, Xaviin stood still, necrotic magic building up from his bones.

Jack noticed that Xaviin's behavior changed and he got alerted. ^Something big is coming.^ He opened his fingers and pulled on the strings he was using to tie Xaviin down, and tied Arad and the rest with them. ^You better get away. I feel like he's about to explode.^ Jack smiled as Arad, Merida, and Abel got pulled away from Xaviin, leaving him alone.

CRACK! Xaviin opened his jaw, an eldritch green flame burning inside his throat from a purple crystal.

[The Bone Zone] He laughed at full power again.

As green necrotic flames consumed Xaviin, massive bones spiked from the ground. ^Mortal, today you welcome death.^ The lich glared at Jack, mocking his flesh.

^Let's see who's the best.^ Jack smiled, pulling all the explosives he had stored, and throwing them at Xaviin.

BOOM! A fiery explosion covered the place as bones spiked from everywhere.

Arad, Abel, and Merida screamed, seeing Jack getting consumed in the chaos.

Xaviin was unharmed by the explosives, his magic had returned to normal, and he could deflect such things with ease. He looked forward, seeing a pool of blood and Jack's arm on the ground, with a small glass bottle to the side.

"He died, I see. Even potions couldn't save his life," Xaviin sighed, looking toward Arad, ready to finish him next.

Thud! Xaviin felt an arm hug his skull from the back, twisting his neck as a knife got pushed between his teeth. "You're the dead one, I saw it when you regained your power," Jack said, cracking the phylactery that Xaviin kept on the back of his throat.

CRACK!

The phylactery cracked, and Xaviin's necrotic magic exploded, sending Jack flying toward Arad's house. BAM! He hit the wall, cracking it.

SWOSH! Xaviin wasn't dead yet, and he flew toward Arad as fast as he could. ^Alcott is dead, and all I need to make sure you're dead as well.^ He swung his wand toward Arad faster than anyone could react. Arad lifted his arms at the last moment, but a fiery explosion blasted him away, sending his body flying toward Alina at an incredible speed.

Xaviin didn't wait and flew away leaving Abel and Merida in the dust. ^The meteor is falling down. I need to get away. That stupid rogue destroyed my phylactery. If my body got destroyed now, I'm done for.^ He didn't want to rest now that he lost his safety net.

As Nina was chasing the death knights around, CRACK! Arad broke through the trees, and flew at a blinding speed, digging a trench as he stopped on the ground, barely breathing. His eyes stared at the sky, seeing a massive boulder falling down.

"Did we lose," He mumbled, but then spotted a woman standing below the meteor with her white hair crackling with magic.

Merlin took a deep breath, lifting her staff up. She didn't lift a finger to fight this entire time, only so she can focus all of her mind on stopping the meteor.

GRWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Merlin screamed, [Reverse Gravity] She started pushing back on the meteor with her magic, trying to stop it mid-air,

BLUSH! She could feel her arms and muscles crack as she started bleeding from every orifice. ^I have the magic to stop it, but my body can't take the pressure without breaking.^

Humans are weak, and their bodies cannot handle massive spells without intensive preparation. Merlin didn't have enough times to prepare for lifting a whole meteor.
