The Elemental Tower - Chapter 44
Chapter 44: I’m A Legend!
Dra’s heart sank, because her opponent’s attack was truly fearsome. She was well aware of her Dragon King Shield’s Defense Ability, and knew that it would have been tough for her to break it in one move too, so she could imagine how powerful her opponent was to be able to hurt her after breaking it.
Alice was extremely powerful.
While Dra was feeling shocked, she was absent-minded for a brief moment.
Alice captured that moment perfectly.
“Hmph, trash is trash. How can you be absent-minded in this situation!” She shifted her right leg to Dra’s left side, then gave Dra a heavy whip.
The immense power sent Dra flying away, such that she rolled a few meters away before she was brought to a halt.
“Damn it.” Dra frowned. Though her body was not hurt, she felt that her dignity was trampled as she was easily knocked down by her opponent.
The fury of the Red Dragon Queen gave her much stronger power!
Nevertheless, Alice did not give her a chance at all. She approached Dra slowly. “Since you’ve used your ability, it’s time for you to have a taste of mine.”
Upon hearing her, Dra was ready to resist no matter what!
However, even when she put on her tightest defense, the outcome was still leaning to the worst for her.
When Dra was defending, Alice, who was a certain distance away from her, said after some time, “Are you ready to defend?”
“Try me!” Dra lowered her body and wondered, ‘Watch how I’m going to beat you into a pig head!’
She was full of wrath.
“Hmph.”
Alice scoffed, then suddenly disappeared. Before Dra could react to the situation, she sensed an exceptionally threatening aura behind her.
Boom!
Alice somehow appeared behind Dra in a flash to punch her back.
Dra forced herself to take the hit as she was ready to counterattack.
Nonetheless, the instant she turned around to grab the corner of Alice’s shirt, her lower abdomen suffered a heavy hit.
Before the pain at her abdomen even rose to the peak, she was attacked again by continuous punches.
Dra was stunned. She felt that every part of her body was being struck, and she sensed danger coming from every direction.
When she opened her eyes to look, Alice seemed to be everywhere, but she soon realized that the figures were illusory, and she could not determine Alice’s exact location.
Avina and the others who were watching from afar were dumbfounded as well. They saw a few of Alice’s figures punching and kicking Dra simultaneously, causing Dra to be hit more than ten times in a second.
After a few seconds, Alice suddenly appeared somewhere far from Dra. On the other hand, Dra was on her knees as she had lost her balance, then she fell forward.
“Dra!” Lucy screamed and ran over to her. The other female Heroes cast a hateful look at Alice, then surrounded Dra to check her injuries.
When Kara lifted her magic staff, stardust gushed into Dra’s body to heal her.
After a short while, Dra pushed the other Heroes around her away, then tried to stand up. She glared at Alice, who was far away, and clenched her fists together, but did not charge at her impulsively.
“Do you know why you’re not a match for me?”
Alice grinned and approached Dra when she noticed that Dra was not resigned to the outcome.
“Why!” Dra asked with a hoarse voice. Since they were both Dark-gold Grade Heroes with a Disaster Rating, she figured that their combat power was similar, yet she realized from the battle that there was a great disparity between them. In fact, the difference was much larger than if she compared herself with Lucy.
“You probably won’t understand since you have a low IQ.” Alice stood in front of Dra and looked at her disdainfully. “I’ll explain in a simpler way.”
“You’re aware that our Rating is Disaster, right?” Alice continued after Dra nodded, “In simpler terms, Disaster can mean natural disaster, which is a mighty power far beyond Humans’ reach! For us, low-Level enemies are not a threat at all, and the distance between us and them becomes bigger as we grow.
“But there’s also a huge difference between different natural disasters,” Alice stared at Dra as she mentioned, “A small earthquake is considered a natural disaster, a hurricane that sweeps the coast is a natural disaster, and a meteor that destroys a whole continent is a natural disaster too!
“Among natural disasters, the few that leave a deep impression as they cause huge losses are unforgettable.” Alice turned her head. “For our Lord, natural disasters like that are given the Legend Rating, which is the Red Grade!
“You’ll understand better if I use people instead of natural disasters.
“Let’s say that a Disaster is a heroic figure in an era, but how many from multiple eras are recorded? How many are spread from mouth to mouth? On the contrary, a Legend is considered a top-notch figure regardless of the era, and will always live in people’s hearts even if one isn’t recorded!
“I happen to be someone like that.” Alice headed to the door, then turned to smile brightly at Dra. “Although I only have a Disaster Rating at the moment, I’m approaching Legend without a limit. I need time to settle down. With sufficient time, I’ll definitely become a real Legend.”
Dra looked at Alice in disbelief as she was clearly shocked by the information.
“On the other hand, you’re just a little Red Dragon that struggles to become a Disaster, and the gap between us is beyond your imagination!”
With that, Alice left the room, leaving the other female Heroes in bewilderment.
“How is that possible!” Lucy could not accept that something like that happened.
“Why is she doing that? How dare she do that? Her actions are unforgivable if our Lord finds out!” Stardust’s Child Kara was indignant at the way Dra was treated.
“Legend… She said that she’ll become a Legend!” Avina clearly knew the meaning of a Legend more than anyone else, thus she was much more worried than the others. “She’s actually so powerful.”
“I don’t believe it!” Dra knelt on the ground, then punched the floor hard. “I’ll definitely take my revenge, I definitely will!
“Just you wait! I swear by the Red Dragon’s blood that I’ll become a Legend one day, and I’ll pin you to the ground!
“Ahhhh!!!”
Dra roared for some time before she suddenly stood up. “I’ll go on patrol outside.”
She felt so humiliated and mad that she needed to vent with the Werewolves!
