Arad looked back at them as Jack smiled on his back, "Getting swallowed by a dragon and surviving, a take to tell the grandchildren several decades from now," He jumped to Arad's neck, "I'm first."
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! As Arad spoke with Jack, they heard something buzzing in the distance, rushing toward them at high speed.
"She's back!" Arad growled, turning to the right to see Zephyr's smiling face. CRACK! She kicked upward, hitting him in the guts like a man kicking a cat.
Blood splashed across the grass as Arad's body flew into the sky, falling to the ground with a thud.
Zephyr giggled, "What a monster." She looked down with sweat dripping from her face.
The blood splattered didn't belong to Arad but to her. When she kicked him, he munched and clawed at her leg, shredding her foot.
Arad stood, spitting Zephyr's toes on the ground with blood dripping from his teeth.
"You couldn't dodge since the acceleration would kill the people on your back, so you braced yourself and attacked my foot instead." Her foot healed immediately as her eyes glowed with a green eldritch flame.
Arad immediately turned toward everyone else, biting Jack and swallowing him. "Wait a moment!" Cerilla cried as Arad swallows her next, and then Dalla without caring about their protest.
Lydia and Eris rushed toward Arad, "Get us out of the way," He swallowed them without a moment's hesitation.
"Please hold a moment," Isdis lifted her, trying to run, but Arad caught her.
"Eating your own?" Zephyr stared at him, "No, you're protecting them. Should I expect a large area of effect spell or something?" She conjured a wind spear and pointed it at Arad.
Arad glared at her with eyes glowing purple. SWOSH! The light faded from them, followed by an expansion of darkness.
The bug's bodies disintegrated, getting digested the moment they got consumed.
Zephyr flinched as the darkness covered her. She stood in her place, looking around with a puzzled face, "Nothing?"
ZON! Arad teleported behind her, swinging his claw at her neck.
SWOSH! Zephyr swung her spear, hitting him on the head and sending him flying. "What an interesting attack," She smiled.
ZON! Arad started floating in his void, "Why aren't you disintegrating?"
Zephyr smiled, "I have my own protection. The wind is the only thing protecting this world from the hunger of the void. Why can't it protect me?" She smiled, glaring at him with a smug face. "I have my own atmosphere. Deal with it,"
Arad growled, feeling his scales tingle. This thing is dangerous beyond belief.
^[Arad, run away with everyone. You're facing a free elder spirit. All the wind of the world is beneath her feet.]^
"Where is Aella!" Arad shouted, but Zephyr just stared at him with a smile. "I can't hear cause the void, but I know you're asking about that girl." She stared at his eyes, "She's dying in the mansion. But don't worry, that's as far as she would go."
BA-dump! Arad scales stood up as he started growling, magic oozing from his claws.
Lumps of stone emerged from the void, the ones he swallowed from digging and destroying the forest.
Those lumps started orbiting Arad's body, heating up as they rubbed on the mana leaking from his body.
^That one!^ Arad remembered the meteor the undead almost dropped on Alina. ^A fast, red-hot rock. Simple but deadly, I want more!^
ROAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR! Arad roared, his void muffled by the void, but Zephyr could feel her atmosphere shaking.
"MOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE!" Arad roared as his entire void got filled with red hot glittering stones that filled it like stars.
As Arad roared, countless stars fell on Zephyr, chasing her as she flew away. "Damn it! They are small but dangerous. I shouldn't have expected less from a magic dragon, let alone a void one." She grunted, "A massive talent for magic, and attunement to the largest element in the world."
CRACK! As she flew, something caught her leg. She looked down, sweating. Arad had bit her, growling like a starving beast.
"Where did you come from?" She growled, trying to stab him with her spear.
CRACK! Arad twisted his neck, spinning like a crocodile and ripping her ankle off.
Zephyr smiled, "I should fill this void first," A violent blast of wind expanded from her body, trying to push Arad away. "Wind already filled the world. It won't be hard to fill you as well."
ROAR! Arad roared, swinging his claw at her chest.
Thud! Zephyr flew back, dodging his stroke with a hair strand and only getting a single scratch on her stomach.
"That's all?" She smiled, "I thought you had more strength. Sorry. You're weakened since I shrunk your size."
"Kaboom," Arad growled. Zephyr blinked as her nipples blasted into blood, ripping holes as deep as her lungs.
The stars flicker reflected from the magnificent blade in Arad's hand, his legendary weapon that guarantees great damage on anything. [Exploding Nipple Knife]
BLUGH! Zephyr coughed blood, glaring at Arad's claws, "You hold an artifact? Where did you get that?" She growled as her body rapidly healed.
BAM! Arad lunged back at Zephyr, swinging his second claw.
Zephyr dodged him. ^It I need to keep an eye on the knife.^ As she looked, the knife had disappeared.
STAB! The tip of Arad's poked her butt. The knife stuck to it.
"Ah! Shit!" As Zephyr growled, her freshly healed nipples disintegrated into the void with a bloody explosion.
"FUCK OFF!" Zephyr shouted, blasting Arad away and pinning him to the ground with a violent gust of wind, "Damn it! That's painful," She growled, healing herself again.
The knife disappeared from Arad's tail and appeared behind her, flying at her thigh guided by gravity. STAB! KABOOM! Blood splashed from her chest as she fell to her knees, "You bastard," She glared at Arad, unable to believe how persistent he was at destroying her nipples.
"That's right," Zephyr smiled, "This is your domain, all attacks can reach me with the right method." She giggled, "But that won't matter soon,"
CRACK! The void above them cracked as Aella jumped in, glaring at Zephyr with green glowing eyes.
"KNEEL!"
