Chapter 319 Queen of the Dragons
Reaching the top didn't take much time for me since my [Warp!] was upgraded to [Unique!] level. But what was even more surprising was that the duo, Aarick and Diaspora, reached up here in no time as well.
Freaks. Both of them…
"What are you daydreaming about? Not like you reached here earlier than us," Aarick spoke with a slight grunt as he looked at me, while Diaspora caught her breath before looking at me with an indescribable look.
'But I cheated,' is what I wanted to say, but I just sighed before looking at the main gate of the temple in front of me. Not waiting for the two idiots, I began walking and reached the main gate.
-Thud!
'Hmmm… it's heavy,' I thought before I took a step back and got in a punching position.
'Spear Art: Unbreakable belief,' concentrating all my strength on one point…
[Temporal Redo (Unique) (Level 10)!]
[Description: The user can cause a replay effect in time that can occur a number of times, causing the damage and effects to be amplified. For example, after the first time, the user kicks a ball, the next time, the ball goes further, and which continues with the subsequent kicks. This can be applied to other things as well, such as breaking things or damaging through a punch. This may be used at any time.
Effects: Allows the user to increase the effect of an action by 100 times
Skill Mastery Points required to evolve the Skill: 5!]
And then I used this skill…
[Temporal Redo!]
-BOOOOM!!!!!
"Eh?" I looked at the scene in front of me as the door flew far, far away, before it fell down in accordance with gravity.
'Did I overdid it?' I smiled awkwardly, as I didn't expect the gate to be this weak. Shouldn't it be really hard to break or something?
"Oi! Stop scaring the kid," Aarick spoke out from behind as he hid Diaspora behind him. She was really shocked by my actions and looked at me with a rather shocked look.
"Oops?" I spoke as I looked at them, making them sigh a little.
"Well. Whatever. You are the one who brought us here," Aarick spoke as he moved closer to me with Diaspora right behind him. Reaching closer to me, he asked,'' So? What now? Shall we wait here or brage in?"
'Since we are going to kill the dragon,' I turned around as I moved into the temple. Stretched a little while, I cracked my fingers, before speaking," well. Since we already have helped ourselves, then let's go all the way."
Aarick nodded as he prepared to jump taking Diaspora in his hands, while I looked as far as I could sense. My eyes traced to the very final point I could visibly see…
-Whoosh!!
Aarick ran first, passing me by with the wind while I
[Warp!]

Took about a dozen or so [Warps]; I ended up reaching the center of the dungeon pretty easily. Filled with the texture of blood coloured sakura, the entire area looked rather dark. The top was black, and the ground was muddy bright.
There were sakura trees, but the leaves were red more than pink. And apart from that, there was a small central open area where a lady was meditating with her eyes closed.
The lady had white-grayish hair with a pale face. Wearing a ragged cloth, she stood there with the energies circulating around her body in all directions. She looked a bit more mature; her face a little more similar to Diaspora.
"Queen," Diaspora mumbled as she saw the girl meditating in the center of this… er… garden?
"Something is wrong," Aarick spoke as his fists turned slightly red and the veins on his body started becoming visible, slowly turning blood red as well. His eyes, which were red, were now darker.
On the other hand, I found the girl meditating in the center, slowly opening her eyes as she stood up. The surrounding energies began convulsing while she looked at us.
"So you have finally come," she spoke as she took a step towards us.
[Eyes of the TimeKeeper (Foresight)!]
The air in the future was turning chilly enough to freeze everything around us. The only reason we were alive in the future was because Aarick was defending us to the best of his ability.
I saw her slowly raising her hands as she began chanting her spell.
[Warp!]
[Ground Zero: First Slash!]
But I sliced it apart before it could even activate, thus changing the future again.
[Eyes of the TimeKeeper (Multidimensional View)!]
-BOOOM!!!!!
Aarick kicked her away from me before covering me with a shield. The red blood sakura almost reached me before the shield deflected it while I kept my eyes concentrated on that monstrous girl still standing there without any problem.
She looked at her cut apart arm before she mumbled something in an unknown language and the arm healed in an instant.
[Warp!]
[Ground Zero: First Slash!]
I cut again, this time near the neck, trying to kill her in one go, but….
-Thud!
The slash couldn't penetrate her skin. Looking closely… the energies were combining around the area where she was standing, protecting her from the attack. Though since she had used her energies here…
-BOOOOM!!!!!
Aarick once again punched her away, making her reach the far ends of the temple, where she hit the wall and fell down. Since there was now a considerable distance between us, Aarick looked at me and asked,
"What the heck is going on?"
Though honestly, I don't have much idea of it other than the fact that we have to kill her. I observed him for a moment before speaking." We have to kill her. Or at least something along those lines."
"The heck do you mean by killing her? My powers are nowhere close to killing her and yours, despite being insane, cannot do a dime to her. You don't even know how to use Divine Energy, no matter what you use or do. It's not possible to kill her for us." Aarick looked at me seriously. This was the first time he was talking with me this seriously.
"Can I… talk to her? Maybe we can come to a conclusion?" Diaspora, who was watching everything from the sidelines, spoke up finally as she looked at us.
Her eyes were kind of sad, perhaps because of the person in question being her Queen, and one can see that she was hesitant when it came to killing her.
"You can? I don't really think she is in the mood to talk right now," Aarick looked at the Queen, finally reaching back to us, one step at a time as she observed us carefully.
"Well. It's not like we have much of a choice here. If she doesn't want to talk, then we just have to make her talk. Or perhaps try killing her? Anyway, not much difference in the process," I spoke as I activated my skills again. It has been a while since I had to calculate how to fight.
'Makes me a little happy,' I smiled as I positioned my sword towards the Queen.
