Master Of None

Chapter 2311: 2311. Volcanic Horror

Speed was a shocking factor that the volcanic horror possessed. For the larger size of its body, it was surprisingly quick. The legs shot out trying to stab at both Ignus and Walker. A reason that Ignus had remained in his dragonkin form instead of his fire dominator dragon form.

He would just be a larger target and damage his body sooner.

They needed to avoid the shocking speed of these attacks while also trying their best to break through with any damage at all. Walker knew that he had to focus the buffs he gave Ignus and the angels on any mana that was not light so that it wouldn't bother Rise.

Losing her focus right now would be catastrophic.

Another sharp leg shot out towards Walker this time. He noticed that there was even more trembling in the volcano as the sharp legs of the volcanic horror dug in to the stone. The sides of the volcano were being cracked and broken by its movements.

Yet, as he worried that it might break the volcano's mouth entirely, a few spots along its body shot out molten webbing and dragged more stone together. The gray color that formed on those stones right after was exactly how it had caused the top of the volcano to become blocked too. It wasn't like a normal spider, it could use its webbing from multiple spaces in its body to keep its nest controlled.

"I can't use water mana because it will cause the collapse of the volcano no matter what. There would be a violent reaction to the water and fire together. Ignus, can you force the fire mana to calm down for a moment?"

The fact that Water mana was also on the banned list with light mana did not make things easier. Walker knew that the results of a volcano meeting a lot of water would be a larger explosion. Adding that to the massive amount of pressure right now would make things just that much worse when it did explode.

A volcano exploding with two large factors like pressure and water mixed in with molten magma? No, that couldn't happen.

"I can make that happen. The fire mana is not under that things' control alone." There was a competitive tone in Ignus's voice. He hated that he was feeling some threat from this monster.

While it was an ancient monster which perfectly melded the two affinities which it possessed, Ignus was a dragon! He should be able to use his strength to beat this thing without causing any issues. Even holding back his physical might and true dominator dragon form, he could beat this volcano horror in fire mana control.

The fire affinity angels moved around Ignus and drew some of the fire mana toward them. Their skin had begun to turn a shade of red as they tried to handle the what and intense fire mana. Their red feathered wings had grown to a much deeper red color matching that of what Ignus's scales normally were.

The angels could feel the threat that they were under, but they could also sense the strength that Ignus had with fire mana. They could only work with him and learn more through this fight. They did not like seeing a monster with the potential to destroy an entire area like this. There were volcanic islands near the Sigil continent, meaning that there were threats to the angels too. They needed to learn from this experience to defend their own homes from ancient monsters like this.

Their attachment to the fire mana and how they used their natural affinities and their natural racial abilities to drag it towards them gave Ignus a better handle on the fire mana around them all. He could easily have done the same, but this was like having some of the weight taken from his burden. He could take advantage of this small amount of assistance and build on it like a foundation.

The fire mana which had been growing and running wild suddenly calmed. Not enough to make the volcano cool so the magma appears less volatile. However, it was enough that Walker could sense a clarity in the air. This gave him a chance to work on what he had been trying to do.

In a flash, he had used wind mana and a little space mana to move through the air and appear underneath the volcanic horror. His focus had not been on directly fighting the monster. He understood that it was resistant to a lot of blunt damage and the most effective magical attacks he could use were not applicable right now.

His hand landed on the gray stone created using the volcanic horrors' webbing and the magma ores and stones. He could feel the heart mana much more than before since the fire mana was not causing a clash to a higher degree.

While he felt his hand begin to burn, Walker just focused more on his goal knowing that he could heal any wounds like this. The splashes of lava hitting him were not enough to cause substantial damage right now. Instead, he should be able to resist that with his level and resistances.

Searching for him, the volcanic monstrosity felt the change in the fire and then the earth mana. It knew that this was not what should be happening since it was the one controlling the volcano right now.

Yet, as the rumbling beneath its sharp legs grew even more, it understood that the pressure was too great beneath it. Normally, it would have let out a large burst of smoke and the pressure would decrease. It couldn't do that right now because of the fight happening. The chances of it losing control over its nest and territory were growing. Nothing good for it.

Just as it moved to check the threat beneath it, that's when it noticed where Walker was exactly. Moving with its higher rate of speed, it attempted to pierce Walker with its fangs. The molten magma venom dripped proactively.

Walker's work was done though. This monster was moving quickly, but he had already influenced the earth mana which had been left free for a moment. Just enough time for Walker to manipulate it. To change the structure of the tough gray stone mixed with webbing to hold all that pressure back.

Another flash, and Walker was right beside Ignus and the angels. His sudden manipulation of wind mana dragged them all close before he pushed at the wind and the space mana around him. He had not used this much space mana before, but he had his entire mind focused on it within this moment.

They moved somewhat further away while the ground shook with an even more frightening power.

The fire mana reared in ferocious waves before they heard a crack that pushed wind away from the volcano. The forces at work were a mix of both earth and fire mana shooting through the only place that had been made weak to the pressure built within.

Walker had weakened the blockage created and now the magma and pressure had one place ton/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

go.

Up.

The volcanic horror was launched in to the air as well. All the magma and fire mana hitting it directly underneath causing more damage than what Ignus and Walker could have used. If Ignus had not used his fire mana affinity to quell the fire mana for a moment, then the earth mana would have been too chaotic to manipulate for Walker.

He was powerful, but Walker was battling the will of nature and the will of the volcanic horror, an ancient monster with potent mana affinities for earth and fire.

Many stones trapped within the volcano also were launched out causing the ground to shake with each one hitting it. Many cracks and fissures opened up in the immediate area along with large amounts of smoke. But the light was still shining down.

It even appeared in a massive burst which Walker could tell was some of the last light mana around. But that was not the new danger.

Rise was falling.

In a single burst of mana, she had lost her ability to stay conscious.

Yet, just as things appeared to be worse for the light dominator dragon who would have fallen right in to an erupting volcano, Ventus's roar came from the side.

She had enough mana left to capture Rise and pull her along with her. The weariness in her own wing flames showed enough that Ignus took his full fire dominator dragon form and rushed as fast as he could.

With the additional support and the sharing of mana from Walker, they were able to begin moving away. The fire angels also took refuge on the backs of the dragons since they were at their limits. The fire affinity dragonkin were also fleeing for the time being with everything

they had needed.

Plenty more had to be down here, but for the moment, they needed a place to rest.

Repent now and go here, http://wbnv.in/a/ccfhAus
