Transmigrated Into the World of Magic and Swords-Chapter 278: Silver Dragon

Talia wiped the blood from the corner of her lips and rose to her feet slowly. "Don’t act like you have won. The fight is not over yet."

’Twin Ice Tornadoes.’

The temperature suddenly turned cold, and the wind disappeared for a moment.

Then, in the next second, two massive ice tornadoes erupted from either side of her, spiraling upward violently.

Debris from destroyed buildings was lifted from the ground and swept into the storms, becoming one with them instantly.

Talia’s robes fluttered violently, and her eyes glowed with fierce light.

Even though she stood between two raging ice storms, she was completely unharmed, as if the tornadoes were a part of her.

"Die!" With a single swing of her staff, the twin tornadoes surged forward, dragging the ruin of the city with them and rushing toward Scarlett with merciless, killing intent.

Despite seeing two raging ice tornadoes dashing toward her, Scarlett didn’t move from her place or panic.

Instead, she locked her gaze on the storms and slowly raised her sword.

The moment she raised it straight above her head, its tip glowed red, and spiritual energy surged rapidly into her sword.

Then, like a dam bursting under the pressure of a flood, flame energy erupted violently, shooting ten meters high in the air and turning the area around her into a wave of blistering heat.

’Crimson Ascendant Slash.’

With a single, fluid swing, Scarlett unleashed a massive diagonal flame slash that cut through the air like a burning scythe.

Boom!

The moment her slash collided with the two raging ice tornadoes, a thunderous explosion filled the air, sending fire and shards of ice scattered in all directions.

Talia’s lips curled up into a grin when their attacks met because she believed her attack would not lose.

But the moment the twin ice tornadoes vanished into nothingness, her confident expression disappeared, replaced by terror.

’No!’

Her pupils quivered as the flame slash flew toward her at an incredible speed.

Boom!

Her staff broke, and her skin was burned.

Even though she was still alive, only a thin line separated her from death because the power of Scarlett’s attack was so powerful.

’I...lost?’

Talia lay motionless on the shattered floor and stared at the blue sky because she could no longer move her body.

Scarlett retrieved a health potion from her space ring and approached Talia slowly.

"You’re not allowed to die yet. You haven’t suffered enough. You need to feel more pain." Scarlett grabbed Talia’s face and poured the potion into her mouth.

At that moment, Scarlett seemed like a completely different person.

The spoiled, childish girl was replaced by someone cold and ruthless as if this had been her true self all along, and the cheerful version of her was nothing more than a mask she wore to conceal it.

Of course, that was not true.

Talia had destroyed her city and killed countless innocent people, so she was blinded by anger, causing her to act mercilessly and cruelly.

"Cough...Cough..." Talia choked as she struggled to breathe because Scarlett forced the potion into her mouth without a shred of care.

’She gave me... a health potion?’

She slowly turned her head toward Scarlett.

’No! She is planning something!’

Her body trembled uncontrollably because, from Scarlett’s cold expression, she could tell that she didn’t save her out of mercy.

"Good! Now, you can take another beating." Scarlett pierced Talia’s right thigh and twisted it.

"Aaaggghhh..." Talia cried out in pain.

’It hurts! It hurts like hell!’

Tears of pain rolled down her cheeks, and immense pain spread through every inch of her body.

"My people suffered more than this! You need to feel more pain!" Scarlett pierced Talia’s other thigh, causing her to scream in pain again.

"More! More!" Scarlett stabbed and sliced ​​Talia’s body mercilessly.

Some of her subordinates even trembled in fear when they saw her torturing Talia.

Of course, none of them hated her or felt disgusted by her actions because they knew she was doing it to avenge their fallen brothers, sisters, and fellow citizens.

"Kill me! Kill me! KILL ME!" Talia could not endure the pain anymore, so she begged Scarlett to end her life.

But instead of granting her wish, Scarlett poured another health potion into her mouth.

The pain of those who had lost their families was so great, so Scarlett wanted Talia to suffer for every life she had destroyed and for every soul she had taken.

"Aaaggghhh...." A soul-piercing howl of pain reverberated in the entire area.

While some of Scarlett’s subordinates were horrified by what she was doing, many of them cheered with joyful expressions.

Talia had taken many lives, so in their eyes, she deserved to be tortured.

Boom!

At the same time, above the city, Ren was fighting against Kaela and Zerina.

Like before, he still had the upper hand in the fight.

They said they were stronger than Nathalie when they fought together, but to him, it was a lie because facing Nathalie was more difficult than fighting them.

’Ice Clone.’

He created two clones and surrounded them from three directions. freeweɓnøvel~com

"Lightning Dragon!"

"Finger of Death!"

"Thunderclap Strike!"

He and his clones attacked them with magic and skills from all sides.

Kaela and Zerina defended themselves by conjuring spheres of ice that completely enveloped their bodies.

At first, their shields could block his attacks, but everything changed when Ren and his clones unleashed their third strike.

Cracks formed across the surface, and moments later, their shields shattered into countless shards.

*Slash...Slash...Slash...

Ren and his clones didn’t give them time to rest and launched another attack.

Kaela and Zerina were helpless under the relentless flurry of sword slashes, causing them to get hit multiple times and fall from the sky.

"Cough..." Blood splashed out of Kaela’s mouth as she fell because one of his clones rushed toward her and pierced her in mid-air.

"Fourth Elder!" Zerina shouted worriedly before finally unleashing an ice needle toward the clone, destroying the clone instantly.

Bang!

The sound of Kaela’s body slamming into the ground reverberated in the entire area.

"Fourth Elder!" Zerina rushed toward Kaela and helped her up.

"Cough...Cough..." Kaela coughed up blood again.

"Fourth Elder, let’s retreat. We need a plan to kill him." Zerina hated to admit it, but they could not defeat him in a fair fight.

"Fifth Elder, it’s already too late for me. You should retreat with the Seventh Elder." Kaela didn’t know what had happened to Talia, so she thought Talia was still fine.

"No!" Zerina refused to leave her. "I’m sure our healing mages can save you."

"Fifth Elder, I know my condition very well. I also know this is going to be my last fight. That’s why I want to make him suffer and weaken him so that it would be easier for you to kill him when you face him again." Kaela knew the severity of her wounds, so she chose to use the last of her life to make him regret ever crossing the Misty Palace.

"What are you going to do?" since Zerina could not stop Kaela, she asked what she was going to do.

"I will turn him into a magical beast." Kaela gave an honest answer.

"You will..." Zerina widened her eyes because Kaela was about to use forbidden magic.

"Fifth Elder, please protect me for several seconds." Kaela uttered.

"...Alright." Kaela had made up her mind, so Zerina agreed instantly.

Ren’s clone attacked Zerina again, but she could block his attack easily this time.

Not only that, but she could also destroy it because his clone was not as powerful as the real Ren.

When Ren was fighting against Zerina in the sky, Kaela performed forbidden magic.

"Use my body as the sacrifice and my soul as the curse. Be reborn and suffer for eternity as a magical beast!" right after Kaela’s voice faded, a magic circle appeared above Ren.

Ren thought it was a long-range magic attack, so he used the Lightning Movement skill to avoid it.

However, the magic circle reappeared as soon as he was in a new place.

Ren used the Lightning Movement skill again.

But the same thing happened.

Wherever he went, the magic circle reappeared above him because he had already been marked as a target.

’What is this?’

Right after he lifted his head, his body began to glow with a golden light.

At first, he felt nothing, but a moment later, his body began to change.

Two silver horns sprouted from his head.

A pair of wings burst out from his back.

And a long tail also grew behind him.

A dragon!

Ren’s body was no longer in a human form.

Instead, it was in the form of a dragon.

In other words, his body was like Julzreon’s.

The difference was that Julzreon’s scales were black, while his were silver.

A Silver Dragon!

"A dragon? He turned into a dragon?" actually, Kaela’s forbidden magic only turned him into a magical beast.

She didn’t know what kind of magical beast he would turn into because it depended on his talent and fate.

If Ren was destined to be nothing in the future, he would turn into a useless and weak magical beast like a small ant.

Since he turned into a dragon, that meant he was destined to be a great person in the future.

Of course, that was only valid if he could stay alive because many geniuses had perished before they ever had the chance to fully bloom.

"Cough...Cough..." Kaela coughed up blood again.

"Fourth Elder!" Zerina flew toward Kaela after she dropped to her knees.

"I didn’t expect him to turn into a dragon." Kaela said in a weak voice. "Fifth Elder, take the Seventh Elder and return to our organization with a teleportation scroll."
