Chapter 20 19. The Golden Dragon.
We walked more inside the dungeon, golems came in a much smaller number, only 2-3 started to appear and then it came down to one.
We arrived at a Grand door which was decorated with an eye in the middle and many gears surrounding it.
I looked back at Vinny and Jiwoo to see if they are ready, once we set a foot inside, we have to run at extreme speeds or die, those are the only options for us, we will be risking our lives by trusting each other. It is extremely important to understand each other and fight together, where one will trust the other with their life.
"Huuuuu.... You guys ready?" I said as I took a deep breath.
"Do you have a plan?" Jiwoo asked with nervousness written all over his face and I can't blame him because this is the first time, he would facing a high rank monster with his very low strength.
"...." Vinny didn't say anything and looked at Jiwoo weirdly because he was supposed be someone who knows the future and the difficulties that lie ahead, so he was thinking what happened to him.
".. I have a plan but, I'll be on my own if this works out." I said because I was planning on fighting the Dragon alone from the beginning.
"Huh?" Vinny exclaimed.
"... are you sure?" Jiwoo asked with a very worried expression.
"If you guys want to fight then I have different plan."
"What's the other plan?" Vinny asked without hesitation, he looked absolutely resolute.
"..."
".... first, I'll confirm my doubts and for second, then...."
*
We crotched down on the ground I held an ice stick in my hand and drew on the sand as I explained the details of the plan to them.
"Clear?" I asked them for confirmation.
"Clear." Vinny said with smirk on his face.
"..... Clear." Jiwoo said with uneasiness in his tone.
"Good." I said as I stood back up and nodded my head.
I closed my eyes and concentrated, a giant bow and three spears manifested before me as it floated in air, I clenched both the bow and the spears in both hands, Vinny was looking at me amazed expression and Jiwoo was looking awe struck.
"Jiwoo, can I look at your sword?" I asked Jiwoo.
"Hmm? Yea, sure." Jiwoo passed me his katana which he held in his right hand.
CLICK
I unsheathed the katana and looked at it for a brief moment, I sword's craftmanship was poor and the balance of the sword was not good, you could notice it crafted unevenly if looked close enough. I traced my index and middle finger on the sword while channeling mana into the sword after three seconds of mana channeling the sword broke in half.
'I knew it.' I thought while looking at the half-broken katana. I glanced at Jiwoo who stood gape with his mouth wide open and I turned my head to face Vinny who stood there with a casual expression, I glanced at his sword and glanced back at Vinny with a guilty expression, Vinny seemed to understand my expression, he tilted his head as he made a confused face.
"Vinny give me your sword for a moment." I asked.
"Kekeke." Jiwoo laughed weirdly with a grin on his face as he looked at Vinny.
"...."
He passed his sword to me without hesitation which was cracked completely because I used it to slash down the golems with my technique, seems like Vinny had yet to notice it I took the sword before he noticed and used Frost magic on it.
Frost magic started from the middle and his cracked great sword started to split apart, a giant sword formed with chunks of blade emphasized at the corners of the giant sword and clear light blue ice held all the sword pieces in it.
"Whoa!" Vinny exclaimed.
"Whoooooaaaaa!" Jiwoo exclaimed.
Vinny's cracked great sword turned into an ominously beautiful giant sword.
"Hahahaha." I chuckled looked at their expressions.
I felt a burdening gaze on me, I glanced at the direction of the gaze and found Jiwoo looking at me with sparkling eyes.
"Geh. Ahem." I coughed with guilt.
I couldn't do the same with Jiwoo as his basic sword art will get messed up so I waved my hand and katana appeared in my hand as I moved my faster, subspace magic appeared and disappeared in a blink, so they couldn't understand how the katana appeared in my hands, they both looked at the katana dumbfounded.
"This is for Jiwoo. Ahem, it's the one I made myself, though it may look like a normal katana, it'll suit your sword art.... Ahem your style perfectly, I'll buy you a better one if you improve more."
'I almost revealed his main sword art! When even he doesn't know yet.' 'Eh? Why am I acting like his father?' 'Well... it doesn't matter I guess.' I thought.
".... Ok." Jiwoo said in a low tone.
I tossed them their swords and turned to face the Grand door behind me.
"Do you guys remember the plan?" I asked to confirm one last time before entering the door.
"Yes." Vinny said without hesitation.
"Yes." Jiwoo said with confidence.
It surprised both me and Vinny but Vinny looked at Jiwoo with a smirk on his face, Vinny's face said 'He is finally acting like himself.'
"Let's see how long you guys will stay confident" I grinned as I spoke.
I placed my hands on the door and pushed it open.
RUMBLE
WOOOUUNGGG
"WELCOME, MORTALS."
I heard a hoarse voice as soon as I opened the door and saw a majestic being sitting with its head high.
In a semi lit dark room, A being was seen glowing golden with its two horns protruded from each side of its sharp head and its scales looked like they were made of pure gold and golden eyes with vertical black pupils', pride and omnipotence were clearly visible in its face, it was 'THE GOLDEN DRAGON.'
But... something was different, its right half of the body and tail were covered in gears and machines like a robot, its tail was glowing blue at its end, like a gun which was ready to fire a Lazer beam.
"This..."
