Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

"FLAME ON!" I roared and took off into the air like a rocket, burning the fire faster than I could take it in.

I put everything I had into pumping out as much heat as I could so that I could reach top speed. It was a bad idea, but I needed to make sure that the Carnica actually zeroed in on the Fire-Dread Dragon.

[You don't want to take in too much of Emfirza's energy, so don't drain yourself too much. If you do too much, you will become poisoned, and the effect will be diminished. The kind of energy used is precisely the opposite of the type that we use, so it will cancel out yours, and vice versa.]

I slowed down and then sent a thought.

'Can Wataluga hit me like you did? I can't fight that thing with fire!'

[What?! What is he talking about?! You didn't force the Pact, did you!?]

[I don't suggest it; your mind won't be able to handle it! We shouldn't have done it the first time.] .

It was clear to me that the reflections above me were now angled downwards at me, and I glanced back at the monster rising from the canyon. I could never have imagined that there would be a monster like that.

'Does it matter if we all die anyway? Look at that thing! It is three times as big as the one that ate the gem! HIT ME!'

[Hold on to sanity, this is going to pull and twist your mind past its limits!]

As I glared at the dragon, I gritted my teeth and prepared myself for the fight. Although I could sense the Carnica in the distance, they were still too far away from me to pose a serious threat to me.

There was something in the Dread Dragon's eyes that seemed to smile at me. Even though this thing knew it could kill me, it still waited as my body swelled into a throng with a form of wild elemental power.

[Creator of Life, I, The Water that Quenches, Seal the Binding Force Pact!]

*BOOM*

After suddenly exploding, my body became compressed. I began to flatten out, then spread out, causing my body to become paper-thin as if this was what was planned.

My mind felt like it was being ripped apart as my body spun. In the midst of my confusion, I felt cracks beginning to form in my sanity, and then I heard the first word echoing in my head.

[Churn!]

When my body snapped back, both my body and my mind were thrown back into their original positions. The moment I was whole again, the energy began to fill me again.

Watery tentacles appeared from my body, causing me to scream as they appeared. With watery swords, they began striking out at the small Carnica, cutting them out of the air in the process.

My mind then stretched like a cross as I burst again, and as a result, I started to fragment.

[You can do this, Zack! Don't give up now!]

My body spun as massive flat, watery discs as Fireden's voice sounded, and I suddenly remembered the girls.

[The Storm!]

My mind was again smashed into my own flesh, but this time I could sense the Fire-Dread beginning to combat the Carnica. The watery tentacles burst from me as more power overflowed me, and I screamed as more tentacles burst from me.

In the process of forcing the girls to pass through my mind, I began to wonder in my mind. What was the reason for it still hurting this much after stretching my reserves out the first time?

Despite my best efforts, I could feel myself being pulled away from the question at the very last moment. Despite my fighting, my eyes sprang open when I was suddenly sprayed with white-hot pain from a magical shot of power that struck me straight in the head.

"I REFUSE TO FAIL!" I roared, and all the power retracted.

I lost control of the liquid whips, and they started to slam back into my body in a violent rush. As a result of the intense whiplash, I opened my mouth in a wordless cry.

I ruptured, once again, bursting with the unbridled rage of what felt like a hundred storms all at once. As my body was blown into four flattened whirlpools, an eight-pointed star formed from my four body parts.

[Within!]

Once again, back in the memory of the explosion from Helsin and my heads colliding. I found myself at the edge of the wave, but this time it was no longer moving.

I was then being sucked backward by a force that I could not control. The wave picked me up and threw me back to the place I worked, and the wave forced me to the spot where I crashed into Helsin's head.

At this point, something changed. As I looked around, new cracks started to appear, and new planets began to appear, vanish, and then reform.

The next moment, I found myself standing in a room filled with portals. The place I was in was not new to me - because I had seen it before when I left the last time.

That was also when I gave Mark his name, Time.

I understand that he destroyed everything, but if I'm thinking the right way, nothing has really been destroyed. Even though Helsin was in a position to restrict me, I still had some control in my head.

"I have always been in control. I am always the one that holds power," My voice said to me like an echo in my mind.

"If I have always been in control, then why am I restricted now?" I asked, but no answer came, and I started to feel something strange inside my chest.

It was both elements rolling around in my body as I absorbed them. My power was within my control now, and yet I felt like I could push myself even further now.
