Facing the enraged Cross-tailed Dragon, Durandal paid it no mind and merely raised the lance in her hand.
"Mother, why not leave it to me?" Sirin looked eager to make a move.
"No. I'll handle it myself!"
Durandal stopped Sirin. Hearing that utterly dismissive tone, the Cross-tailed Dragon seemed to grow even angrier. Its speed increased further, and its azure dragon tail swept toward her with overwhelming force, countless bolts of lightning flashing and crashing down around it.
Yet Durandal showed no intention of dodging. She simply raised her free hand, and a translucent blue shield appeared before her.
Compared to the Cross-tailed Dragon's massive body, twenty or thirty meters wide, Durandal's shield looked laughably insignificant.
However, when the dragon tail struck the translucent shield, it was completely blocked without affecting it in the slightest. At the same time, the surrounding space fractured, and Durandal appeared more than ten meters behind it. Raising her Knight's spear, she hurled it straight at the Cross-tailed Dragon's tail. "Roar!!"
The handsome Knight's spear pierced the Cross-tailed Dragon's tail. Its fur and azure scales seemed utterly useless.
The long-forgotten pain made the Cross-tailed Dragon thrash about. Yet its violent movements caused scales to peel away continuously, dragon blood pouring down like rain.
Its piercing cries were deafening!
"Can't take it already? We haven't even started warming up." Durandal landed atop the Cross-tailed Dragon and pulled out her Knight's spear.
Unable to endure Durandal's taunts, the Cross-tailed Dragon suddenly stopped thrashing. Instead, it flung Durandal away with its tail, then swiftly turned around... its cloud-wreathed claws reaching for her.
Radiance of Kingship
Facing the Cross-tailed Dragon's incoming claws, the propulsion wings on both sides of Durandal's armored skirt spread farther apart. Her powerful reactor sprayed out gamma particles, allowing Durandal to evade its attack
