NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 7: Fusing With Ashkar!
[Fusion mode activated!]
The system's notification flared, but Aleron ignored it, he could feel an ancient desire to burn everything to crisps.
He let out a loud roar and the next moment his figure blurred as he moved.
His speed was too fast for the rank 2 summoners, who were still recovering from the shock of his transformation.
Aleron appeared in front of the first man and immediately his hands moved.
He could feel his arm strength was more than ten times stronger than before.
With a clasp of his hand, he crushed the man's skull, killing him in the process.
[Gained 200 Exp]
The notification flashed but he didn't care about it.
I don't have much time left, I have to finish this and quickly leave this place, Aleron thought inwardly.
As he attacked, he thought of the most effective way to strike, which would also take the shortest amount of time.
Because of this, the time he spent killing the first man was just a few seconds.
Not delaying any longer, his figure moved and vanished into a gust of wind.
In an instant, he had appeared in front of another unsuspecting Genesis enforcer.
His claw-like hands moved with precision and he swiped them towards the man.
Before he could react, he was slapped away. His body crashed onto a wall, creating a deep pit. He twitched for a bit and then stopped moving entirely.
How strong, Aleron muttered inwardly, amazed at his own strength.
Just then, the beast, which had been stationary for a while, moved, and he was surrounded.
Aleron frowned. He was avoiding this situation by killing the masters and setting the beast free from their control.
At that moment a childlike voice filled with excitement, ancient wisdom, and pride echoed in his mind: Dad, use the dragon breath!
Aleron's eyes widened slightly. I can use that? Although he was shocked, he didn't hesitate, and immediately his origin energy moved to his throat.
Letting out a loud roar infused with rage, a burst of flame emerged from his mouth. In the blink of an eye, it had engulfed the group of summons that had surrounded him.
Aleron was astounded at the damage caused. Besides, the feeling of releasing the dragon breath felt like venting out his emotions. Now he felt slightly lightheaded after the process.
Just at that moment, a system's notification blaring with a red light surfaced on the screen.
[Origin energy is below 5, it is advisable that the host deactivate the fusion ability.]
Hearing the system's warning, Aleron was stunned. I have barely kept the ability active for a moment; how did my origin energy decrease so much?
[By using origin abilities, this resulted in a drastic decrease of your origin energy.]
The system's reply came almost immediately. Aleron eyes widened in understanding. In that case, I can't linger here any longer.
As soon as he had the thought, his origin energy moved to his back. He could feel a slight pull and he already knew what that was.
Wings!
How good it will feel to fly, Aleron thought as he quickly accessed the wings and then his origin energy revolved slightly.
He felt a faint memory in his mind as though he could understand how to use the wings.
Not delaying any longer, he quickly used the technique in the memory.
The moment he flapped the dark wings behind him, dust rose up. The next instant, he was sent into the skies.
Aleron's eyes widened slightly at the sight but he didn't stop for a moment.
As soon as he saw that he was falling from the skies, he quickly flapped his wings once again.
Using the momentum to propel himself forward, Aleron slowly left the place.
However, just then a whistling sound cut through the air and before Aleron could react, he felt something pierce him.
This… Aleron was stunned. He felt his vision turn blurry instantly. It contained something? A poison perhaps? Aleron's thoughts churned as he felt as though he was losing grip of himself.
Have... to find… somewhere safe… can't become shackled again!
Resolving his thoughts, Aleron ignored the pain of the bullet, bit his lips, and clenched his claws, causing them to dig into his dragon scales.
Due to all the bleeding and pain, he was able to slightly keep himself awake.
Fortunately, with a few flaps, he had gone far away from the genesis coil.
As soon as he was out of their sight, the system's notification resounded in his mind once again.
[Overuse of Origin Energy will affect the host.]
[Deactivating Fusion Ability forceful to not cause further harm to the host.]
[Gained 200 Exp.]
[Gained…]
Aleron could no longer focus on the system's information. As soon as the fusion ability was deactivated, all the pain came crashing on him like a tidal wave.
Instantly, he crashed heavily into the forest. Fortunately, just before he could be crushed to pulp on the ground, Ashkar caught him.
Bringing him slowly towards the ground, he placed him atop a rock, staring at him worriedly.
But Ashkar was also exhausted from the fusion ability and all the mental fatigue.
He soon curled up close to Aleron and fell into a deep sleep.
…
Back at the Genesis coil, a young man with good facial features, blonde hair, and a rifle in his hand shook his head in regret.
"Failed to hit target." He recorded the information on an interface crystal in his hand. After that, he spoke a few words into the interface crystal.
"Pull up all feeds; I want all information on the infiltrator. Place his name on the bounty list, and I want to know… What kind of creature was that?"
At the same time, he wondered silently in his heart, Was that really an origin ability just like mine?
…
What they didn't know was that inside the Experiment 0 ward, where the most critical experiments involving certain secrets were usually held, a crimson shadow slithered across the wall.
Lights flickered incessantly as its figure rapidly blinked.
Then, a deep voice filled with longing, excitement, and a slight chill resounded.
"Was that… a dragon???"
"Got to eat… a dragon!!!"
"Evolve… stronger than… god!!!"
