He first took out a short dagger. This dagger looked unassuming and simple but it was actually made from the teeth that Alexis had found at the centre of the Fallen Dragon Wasteland.
Actually after years of wear and tear, the teeth was not in a very good condition. But still this was a very good medium to channel his dragon magic.
That was why, in the last few years, Alexis had learned a few things about blacksmithing, especially magjc blacksmithing. Then after having sufficient confidence, he had created this dagger.
Alexis used the dagger as his medium and cast a spell called "Sword of Koltradia". Immediately flames erupted from the dagger and soon the small dagger turned into a giant flaming sword.
The aura of power this sword gave off was so intense and powerful that both of the monsters started shaking in fear and tried to run away. But Alexis did not give them the chance.
He swang his sword horizontally once and the lamb like monster's head went flying. Then he swang the sword again but vertically this time and the furball monster was bisected in two.
After casually killing both of the powerful monsters, Alexis returned to the fortress. The soldiers were dumbfounded for a moment but as soon as they came back to their senses, they erupted in cheer.
...
After Alexis got rid of all the monsters, the soldiers had a chance to take a little break. They had fighting non stop with the monsters for almost a whole day now.
So Alexis asked them to rest up and brought out a few bottles of wine from his spatial storage. In the freezing cold of the Nirfall Barrens, having some wine would give the soldiers the motivation boost that they needed.
As the soldiers got busy partying with the booze and the meat of the monsters, Alexis held a meeting with the three generals.
In that meeting Alexis told them that he was now going to track down the monster and face it away from the fortress. That way, the soldiers' life would not be in danger and Alexis would also be able to go all out.
After telling the generals about his plan, the general who was scouting the large disaster class monster gave Alexis a map with the approximate current location of the monster marked on it.
Alexis gladly accepted the map and thanked the general. Then he left the fortress silently without letting anyone know to take care of the monster.
...
As Rein flew toward the location marked in the map, he was using his senses to monitor everything in his proximity. As Alexis was alone now, he had no need to still restrict his strength. So he was currently utilising all his abilities.
Very soon Alexis was able to find the monster in question. The map was actually quite helpful. Without it Alexis would have needed a few more minutes to find it.
After finding it Alexis increased his flight speed and immediately approached it. After getting he bit closer, even though he was srillm far away, Alexis was able to clearly see the monster.
The scout general had called the monster a mountain many times during the discussion. Alexis had not given his words much thoughts but now it looked like he was trying to give a literal description of the monster.
The figure of the monster before him was at least 800 meter tall. It was actually a large turtle with a mountain on the back. But instead of having a single head, this turtle monster had four heads in four different directions. It was travelling very slowly with its four pairs of legs.
Alexis had never seen or read about this kind of monsters. So it looked like either this monster was a new species or it was something very rarely found in this region.
Alexis decided to ask the Hero Association's help to find more about the monster. But before that he needed to defeat and subjugate this monster.
This would be a good opportunity for Alexis to test his spells, skills and arts out. This monster looked to have a high defense so it would be the perfect punching bag.
...
Alexis started the fight by bombarding the monster with multiple fireball spell at the same time. Even though fireball was a beginner level spell, Alexis was boosting their power by giving the spell more mana.
So the power of the fireball spell was not to be underestimated. The fire rain that had wiped out most of the monsters near the fortress was this same trick. So in someone like Alexis' hands, even a weak spell like the fireball was also extremely dangerous. So as soon as the fireballs hit the turtle monster all over, explosion happened.
But after the dust of the explosion settled down, Alexis saw that the monster was completely unharmed from his attack. This actually made him happy and instead of disappointing him.
That was because as the rocks on the turtle's back was able to withstand his spell, it meant those rocks were not regular. And seeing how big the turtle was, Alexis would be able to get a lot of material from this monster alone.
As Alexis was calmly watching the monster, after he attacked it, the monster also noticed Alexis. One of the heads that was facing toward him let out a loud roar and launched an purple beam attack from its mouth toward him.
As soon as Alexis was attacked, he immediately dodged it. This beam breath attack was extremely powerful. Alexis was sure that his Adamantine Shield would be nothing against it and even his Divine Scales might not be able to completely block this attack.
So Alexis dodged the beams while observing the monster. His Draconic Eyes were continuously analysing the monster while trying to learn as much as he could about it.
While dodging, Alexis was not being completely passive. Just like his fireballs, this time he was continuously throwing flame spears toward the monster.
As flame spears was way stronger spell than fireball, the monster was continuously taking damage from it. This was making the monster even angrier.
After doing this for a few minutes, Alexis stopped. He was already satisfied with the power of his continuous flame spear bombardment and his mid air dodging capability. So next, he wanted to test his other spells and the limit of his defense.
So Alexis stopped dodging the beam breath and allowed it to directly hit him. At the same time, he used a powerful spell called "Thunderfire Bluster" on the monster.
So what would be the result of this exchange ?
