My Dragon System

Jack was currently at the edge of the arena slumped down with his back up against the wall. He wasn't passed out but was badly hurt keeping an eye on Ray fighting Killer. He had never been this hurt in his life before. He was wondering what on earth that purple liquid Killer took was. That was the turning point of their battle.

Right now though, there wasn't much he could do but hope Ray was strong enough to beat him.

Although Ray had gotten some of his mana back, he was still struggling in the fight against Killer. He was still badly injured from before. Ray thought hard about it until he came to a conclusion.

Ray figured out the trick to the spear. There was an advanced beast called the spider crab. The spider crab's shell was special. It had the ability to bounce back attacks of a certain level. Killer's spear was made from the advanced beast of the spider crab.

Ray was struggling. He could attack but because of the weapon, but he wasn't able to put any Ki into his attacks. If he did, it would only recoil back onto himself like before.

Killer's weapon was not only a higher tier than Ray's but also Killer was able to put his Ki into the spear. Although elemental attacks would work, without Ki or mana they were basically useless.

The only thing that was keeping Ray in the battle currently was his footwork from the black sash training and his hand to hand combat skills learnt from the old man. Ray's chest was currently exposed due to the damage he took. He no longer had the fanged boar armour.

The attacks were coming in fierce and fast like a snake but Ray would knock each one away. Jack was amazed. Not only was Ray strong physically but he was also skilled.

"Dammit if I had dealt with him early on it wouldn't have been a problem. It looks like his speed, his power, everything has doubled." Ray thought to himself.

Ray wished right now he had some of his dragon skills. With the fire and ice attribute at most, he could transfer it to what he was wearing. He wasn't able to cast a fireball or an ice ball. This way he could create a diversion.

As a spear attack came down on Ray, he went to uppercut the spear as hard as he could without using any Ki. It was the only thing he could do. As the two weapons collided, Ray could hear a cracking sound in his gauntlets.

Ray had more strength than the average human. Even without Ki, he would be able to match some students in terms of raw power but the main problem right now was his intermediate Gauntlets weren't good enough to go up against an advanced tier weapon.

When Ray was starting to run out of ideas, a voice sounded from behind.

"Here!" Jack said as he barley stood up holding his great sword.

Jack then threw the great sword in the air towards Ray.

Ray leapt up and caught the weapon.

"You need a better weapon, right? Well, you can borrow my baby girl for a little while."

Jack had been watching Ray for a while now. When he saw Ray's gauntlets nearly break, he knew he needed to help out somehow. Jack was reluctant to give the weapon to Ray. There weren't many that could wield it for its huge size and weight. But if there was anyone who had a chance, it was Ray.

Ray happily took the great sword from Jack and went on the attack against Killer. The sword was indeed heavy for Ray forcing him to use two hands to swing the thing.

The two weapons clashed with thunderous roars, sending out shockwaves throughout the arena. The weapon Jack had lent Ray was the same tier.

The two of them were even in terms of power. Ray knew he needed to do something to turn the tide. Ray gripped the great sword in his right hand. It was going to take all of his power to hold it with one hand and use it properly.

A spear strike came stabbing towards Ray's head. He moved to the side and grabbed the spear with his left hand.

<Ice attribute>

Ray used the remainder of his mana to freeze his hand with the spear. Ice started to not only cover the spear but Ray's entire left arm as well. The spear's special skill had activated recoiling the damage back to Ray.

<Mana 0/41>

It was risky. If Killer had the strength to move the spear there was a chance Ray could lose his arm. With Ray's right arm he went to swing the great sword, his veins were bulging out of his arm as he gathered every ounce of strength he had.

The great sword weighed a ton and it took all of his strength to swing with one arm. He had used all of his mana and Ki on the ice attribute. So, he had to finish killer of with his pure strength.

Killer was reluctant to let go of the spear but he knew if he didn't, he'd be a goner. As the great sword came closer to his head, he finally decided he had to let go and escape but when he tried to pull away, the ice had already started to reach Killers' hand, causing him to be stuck to the spear.

The great sword sliced right in between killer's head and shoulders cutting his head off.

Ray was sweating hard; his heart was beating fast. Too many times now he had been in a life or death situation. His hand was still stuck frozen to the spear. Ray walked over to Killers' body and placed his hand on Killer's chest.

"Mana drain"

<Error, the host is infected unable to use mana drain>

"Was it because of the shadow plague?" Ray thought. After Killer had absorbed the purple liquid, his aura changed from yellow to a purple just like the dark guild members.

"Are Pureblood and the Dark Guild related to the Shadow Plague somehow?"

Then another notification sound came up.

<Task 4/1000 has been completed>

<You have unlocked the new skill "Transform">

It seemed like to Ray whenever he got out of a life or death situation, he unlocked a new skill. Maybe the system was rewarding him for that.

Ray thought back to all the situations so far: when he defeated the black wolf, when he fought the dark guild members, when he fought the minotaur and now when he thought against the pureblood member.

But that couldn't be right because there was one instance where Ray didn't receive a skill. The first time he fought Pureblood with Gary against Lancy. If that was the case, that situation was just as tough as this one, yet he didn't receive a skill at that time.

Ray then quickly went to search for Killer to see if he had anything on him. Then Ray managed to find an extra vile of purple liquid in a small glass test tube. Ray held the test tube up with his right hand.

"So, this is what Killer drank…"
