The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

As soon as Stella saw the state Rein was in, her mind immediately got clouded in anger. She was obviously angry at the dragon to hurt Rein so badly but she was even more angry at herself for not paying enough attention to the battle.

Rein got hurt so badly because he was trying to protect her. Even when half of his body had disappeared, he was still not in any danger. But for the time being he would not be able to attack anymore as that wound would take a lot of time to heal even for someone like Rein.

So, Stella channeled all her rage into strengthening her willpower and did something very dangerous that she had never done before. She started to utilise the power of the spirit of magic exceeding her limits.

Stella did not have an insanely useful regeneration ability like Rein's which allowed him to heal in any condition. So she never tried to go past her limits as that might even kill her. But today, in her anger, she took that step.

Even though magic was not very effective on this dragon if Stella could not return the favour of it hurting Rein, then she would feel measurable.

After she started to break her limit, she combined her light, wind and lightning spirits and made them to transform into a bow that had an extremely strong ability to accelerate any arrow as this bow was made using three of the fastest elements.

Then she tried to do something she had never managed to do before and that was to combine a total of 5 elements together. She could do it with four, she could even make opposite elements to work together, but even after trying for many times, she had never managed to combine 5 elements together.

But now she felt like she would be able to do it. So she first took out an extremely powerful one time use arrow and coated it with the transformed ice spirit. As this dragon had a very high magic defence, Stella thought that using a powerful physical arrow as the base would be a good idea.

Then she mixed the water and fire elemental spirits together. But the water spirit was getting a slight boost from the ice so the fire was unable to melt the ice or evaporate the water. Stella manually controlled the water spirit to not extinguish the fire.

Next she used the wind spirits to boost the power of the fire so that the combination of fire element and wind element now had the same powers as the combination of ice and water element.

Finally she used the earth spirit which could boost both the fire and water and Stella adjusted the power output to make sure all the elements were in perfect balance. It was her new finishing move "Five Elemental Arrow".

...

Stella poured all her anger and self blame into drawing the string of the bow and released the arrow with an enraged shouting -

"VERMIN!! DIE!!!!!"

As soon as she released the arrow, it immediately reached the dragon without giving it any time to react. The whole process of her creating the arrow and releasing it looked long from the description but actually all that happened in just a blink of an eye.

What Stella targeting was also an eye. Specifically, the seventh eye of the dragon located at the middle of its forehead.

The magic resistance skin of the dragon that was not badly damaged even after enduring so many magic attacks from Stella looked like a soft piece of tofu in front of this "Five Elemental Arrow" and was penetrated easily.

The Arrow pierced its seventh eye and exploded after reaching inside the dragon's brains.

Obviously a dragon as strong as this one was a special being but even that was not enough to eliminate all weaknesses. And for most beings, the brain was definitely a weak point. As soon as the arrow damaged the dragon's brain, it let out a loud and pain filled roar.

Tasha was not one to miss such a good chance and she immediately used a breath beam attack on the Black Dragon. Dragons were not the only race with breath attacks, most of the primal beasts were capable of using that too.

But actually that breath was only a distraction. When the dragon was busy protecting itself from the breath attack, Tasha hid herself and sneak attacked the dragon. Then she clamped down on its throat with her powerful jaws.

But still even all that was not enough to bring this boss monster dragon down. Even while its brain was damaged badly and its throat was pierced by sharp teeth, it was still not down. Stella and Tasha needed to do something more.

They just needed to give it a little more push and it would definitely die.

So to give the last push, Stella mastered all the remaining powers in her body to wield her unlimited mana once again to cast a spell, but with her body's condition, it was very possible that she might just die now if she pushed herself more.

So instead of using a spell she just combined all her spirits half hazardly and threw it out. It was not a combination magic anything as there was nothing combining in this and it was an amalgam of various elements. Even just doing this was too tiring for her now and she almost fainted.

That amalgam of elements went straight toward Tasha. Yes, toward Tasha and not the Dragon. Did Stella make a huge mistake in her weakened state. Obviously not.

Her good friend Tasha soon proved it.

Tasha used her Black Dark element to take control over the amalgam. She was trying to do the same combination move she had planned with Stella before.

But managing eight together was impossible for her, so she divided them into two portions and combined four elements with her lethal Black Dark attribute.

After that she sent one of them inside the open wound on the dragon's forehead and another one inside the dragon's open mouth. They detonated inside and dealt a massive amount of damage to the dragon.

It made the dragon to stagger and Tasha pressed it to the ground. Now she just needed a little bit more time to tear its head off with her teeth and the victory would be there. As Tasha was able to understand it, the dragon too was able to guess the same. Its life was coming to an end.

A proud dragon was dying like a prey while getting bitten by a mutt. That was unacceptable for it.

So at the very last moment the dragon decided to self destruct. It tightened the muscles around its neck so that Tasha would not be able to go away from it and started to self destruct. It at least wanted to take down one person from the people who were responsible for killing him.

Now suddenly Tasha found herself in a dire situation. She had no way to stop this dragon from self destructing as she still needed a few more seconds to completely kill it. But that much time was more than enough to self destruct.

Normally a boss as strong as this one did not usually have self destruction skills as it did not need something like that so it was very unexpected for her.

She was unable to even run away as her teeth were stuck in the dragon's neck because the dragon was tightening its muscles around that area. Even as a primal beast, Tasha's defence was not her strong point, especially against an enemy like this dragon who was incredibly strong.

So her chance of surviving this explosion in such close proximity was close to zero.

But then suddenly a crimson flash lit up before her eyes. She saw her beloved, the person she had given all her heart, body and soul performing a sword art she had never seen before. He was still not healed.

He had only one half of his body remaining on the upper portion and he was holding his sword with just one hand. But both of his legs were present now at least.

As soon as Rein felt sensation disappearing from one side of his body, he immediately focused his mind on controlling his inherent special ability to heal his leg first. In the meantime he also started to think of a way to kill this dragon even in this wretched state of his.

He saw Stella getting insanely angry and doing something very reckless. He wanted to stop her big decided not to as currently for Stella venting her anger was better than bottling it in. He also watched how his amazing lovers were able to lock the dragon down.

While observing all that a certain move started to form inside his mind.

He focused on this thought more and tried to finalize it as much as he could and very soon his efforts paid off and he got a good idea about a move he would be able to use even in his current condition.

It was something he was designing for quite some time, actually he started to design this move just after he saw a dragon for the first time, and now finally he was able to finalize it.

So when the dragon started to self-destruct, he immediately moved. He combined his crimson lightning and golden light to create something that was ineffective against everything but super effective against a certain specified species.

And then he completely decapitated the head of the black dragon who was unable to self-destruct itself. The name of this move was "Dragon Killer".

This hard dungeon was finally conquered.
