Chapter 163: MT- Killing Cloud Bone Wind Drake!

The Wind Drake speed tripled as it utilized the skills Air Rush and Swim Like Fish. It was like an arrow shot from the celestial bow to destroy the Sun.

In mere seconds, it got close to Whittaker and suddenly, it stopped and powerfully swung its tail at the young boy.

Seeing the tail descending from above, Whittaker decided to evade the attack sidewards. As the bladed tail came towards him, he ghost-stepped at the right time, however, the bone-needles dawned on him.

He parried them with his sword but the force behind the needles was too great, and he was blasted back by the force.

However, it was at this moment when the Frost Bolt released some seconds ago reached right nearby the Wind Drake, while flying mid-air, Whittaker was able to set his eyes on it, and at the same time, the massive bladed tail that was coming straight at him to pierce his guts.

He instantly whispered Frost Elemental Shift gently and vanished.

The Drake had already opened its mouth, for it believed that its tail will pierce through the black-haired boy's stomach and then it will eat him.

Bam!!

The tail crashed on the wall of the floor and cracked it. The dragon lifted its tail to its mouth to eat the red, raw meat it had cooked but it was not there. Replacing his meals were mere chunks of white ice that were scattered all over his tail.

Just when the tail was about to crash on him, Whittaker had shouted Frost Elemental shift to switch places with the Frost bolt which was released some seconds ago.

In other words, he had seen this attack coming ages ago!

His thought processes and mental fortitude surprised many high-rank Rulers.

"Either his mental fortitude is very high or he has the bloodline ability Foresight," A high-rank Ruler said.

"Yeah. I'm guessing his ancestor is an S-ranked mage," his porter added.

The high-rank Rulers watching this scene were impressed by what they saw and they continued to look at the crystal ball. They thought that Life Taker is the descendent of an S-rank mage. It's because only a descendent of an S-rank mage may awaken the bloodline ability "Foresight" but people with such an ability were less and not many in numbers.

Whittaker had teleported just beside the neck of the Wind Drake. He was nearby the left side of its neck which wasn't covered by scales.

Right now, he was standing on top of the beast's neck, which gazed around several areas in search of him, and It even thought, 'where's the boy gone to?'... Unaware that he was standing on its neck.

It was the weakest part of the beast that didn't have much skin or any scales protecting it, and Whittaker have noticed this weak point and was going to take advantage of it.

He brandished his S-rank sword in a downward slash and at the same time poured 10 units of battle energy in his hand.

Spu!

Spur!

Spurrrrrttt!

A red line was drawn on the defenseless neck of the Wind Drake and the line was getting deeper and deeper as blood spurted out of the wound in waves.

Gahhhhhhh!!!! The Wind Drake roared in pain as Blood Drinker went deeper and deeper into its neck. It could feel the tearing pain taking over its soul and clouding its mind and thought process. 

'How can a mere kid have so much strength when he's only at the E-rank. He has even managed to cut my neck that's harder than C-rank weapons. This doesn't make sense! I have to make a sacrifice otherwise, I will die,' The dragon thought in disbelief. It had decided to use the power off authority it has been saving for months.

"Hahahaha, nice one. Kill it, kill it. This bastard devoured me whole when I challenged it. Took me three whole years to become a ruler."

"Life Taker, take its life!"

"Ah~So climatic. This is totally unexpected. I was never hoping for this but got lucky!"

"Yeah. I could have never thought that a mere E-ranker will deal a heavy blow to a Wind Drake. Even though it's a young boy, it still got dragon blood in its vein."

"Hahahaha, Kayn just hand it over to me already, what more you want to see?" the princess, Lillia laughed while kicking her legs out in excitement. She was gonna win a bet she made with Kayn, after all. 

"Don't count your chickens till they hatch. It still hasn't used its authority. Once it uses it, the boy will have no chance to survive." The porter replied confidently. Although Whittaker winning this trial will be a massive event and a huge victory for the human race, he didn't want to see him win.

Kayn has made a bet with Lillia that Whittaker will lose this trial and die after he gets eaten by the Wind Drake. He had bet his S-ranked beast weapon with Lillia who bet her 7-star equipment.

Clank! Suddenly, Blood Drinker hit something metallic and got stopped in its track, this in turn surprised Whittaker very much.

"Eh?" Lillia's mouth opened in surprise.

"Look, it's like I said. The boy won't stand a chance against its authority!" Kayn exclaimed in excitement while swinging his Scythe in a circle motion to look cool. Yes, the scythe was an S-rank weapon, and he had bet this for the 7-equipment of Lillia.

Whittaker was smiling thinking that victory was here but suddenly his smile deflated. No matter how much strength he put behind his hand, the sword remained unmoving, it didn't move a single inch ahead.

The Wind Drake has used its authority to create an ivory Defensive Scale to block the advancement of Whittaker's weapon. 

"Haaaaaaa!" He shouted and pressed his entire weight on the sword stuck inside the neck of the Wind Drake, and at the same time, he poured as much battle energy he can into the attribute line to activate the skill,

Three-Clawed blood slash!

Blood Drinker still pierced into the drake necks fired out three streaks of Scarlet lights shaped like a claw which crashed into the ivory dragon scale and it shattered; However, the blood claw didn't dissipate and advanced deeper into the neck.

The claw-like Scarlet light drilled deeper and was threatening to rip its neck apart!

The Cloud Bone Wind Drake eyes dilated as fear crept up to its heart and soul. It finally decided to use the authority of the tower without limitation.

Ting! Suddenly, the scarlet lights wrecking insides its massive neck got crushed into pieces by a massive force and then got annihilated. The same forced slammed into Blood Drinker and pushed it out of its neck.

The tides of the battle were turned in a single second.

Whittaker, who was standing on the back of its neck, was forced to take three steps back.

He nearly lost his footing there but held on after doing a flip and grabbing one of the many cloud bone protruding out of its back.

"What?" This surprised Whittaker, once again but he instantly understood what has happened as the same force crashed on his body and blasted him away.

60/100

In a single surprise attack, he lost 40 HP, and blood covered him from head to toe.

20/100

The speed at which he was blasted away was very fast. His body moved past the 9-meter long and 5-meter wide Frost spike with sharp edges which stormed in a single trajectory of his choosing and he crashed on the ground with a Bam. After the initial impact, due to inertia his body rolled like a football Blood Drinker still clutched in his hand.

As he was spinning, Whittaker mustered up whatever willpower he could to remain slightly clear-headed and he stabbed his S-ranked sword on the ground as hard as he could. His sword pierced into the ground yet he still didn't halt.

Screech! A ten-meter long gash was made on the ground before Whittaker stopped. He felt pain all over his body and dropped to his knees. He felt as if he could no longer move.

"Cough!" He spurted out a mouthful of blood which sprayed on his chin, shirt, and the ground. He frowned and shivered because of the pain spreading throughout his body and also beamed a smile while looking at the scene in which a massive Frost Spike stabbing into the drake.

---------

Ten-second has passed some seconds ago. The Frost spellbook has finalized the deal, and it had shot out a giant ice spike towards the Wind Drake when it blasted Whitaker away.

--------

The Wind Drake noticed the Frost Spike storming towards It when it was merely a very short distance away, and It wanted to dodge it, but it was already too late.

"GAHHHHHHH! DAMN YOU, LITTLE BRAT!"

Everything happened too suddenly, and the Wind Drake wasn't able to release enough pressure of the authority to stop the massive Frost Spike, and its sharp edges stabbed in the back of the Drake.

Gahhhhhhhhhhh! The Wind Drake shouted in pain as Its wings got impaled by the spike which still pushed forward.
