Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

Despite having keen senses and perception, the dragon didn’t notice a huge comet falling atop it. But how can a huge falling celestial object go unnoticed? That was actually the work of the fox’s unique skill.

The unique skill, Mystic Artist, allows the fox to combine abilities and develop new techniques. Magic spells can be combined with art techniques; techniques can be combined with skills; and skills can be combined with the spells; and with themselves.

In order to hit her target, the dragon, with precision, she has to make her attack unnoticeable to the dragon. As she was casting her World Magic spell, she secretly applied a certain skill of hers to it.

By cloaking her spell with the Perfect Concealment extra skill, she was able to conceal the falling comet from anyone on the surface. Hiding the comet’s fascinating, glistening tail from the world.

The keen dragon was no exception to not perceiving the attack; even its awareness of danger didn’t alert the dragon at all. Unbeknownst to the invisible attack from above, the dragon unknowingly suffered severe damages and was injured.

The Mystic Artist unique skill was the reason behind the unimaginably fast excavation of the Sinkhole spell and the fox’s continuous barrage of powerful spells.

Raphael was impressed by the potential of the Mystic Artist of the fox queen to the point where he desired to obtain the skill. It was one of the reasons why he accepted the offer from the fox queen.

The fox knew even World Magic spells were not enough to take down the immortal dragon. But she has to buy enough time until Raphael returns.

“KU KU KU. CUNNING AS EVER, AS EXPECTED OF A FOX. BUT TRICKS LIKE THAT WEREN’T ENOUGH TO DEFEAT ME.”

Despite its body being crushed by a massive object, the dragon spoke as if nothing else happened. The dragon then pushed its body aside and effectively set the giant frozen celestial body aside.

Splash.

The size of the comet made a huge wave as it was flipped by the dragon. The weight of the comet is not something easy to lift, but dragons are naturally strong to begin with.

Due to its unique skill, Immortal, the dragon had already completed its recovery. Standing quadrupedally in the middle of the newly created kilometer wide lake, the dragon widely spread out its majestic wings.

“HMPH!”

“?!”

Before the silver fox were able to react, several black matters extended from her own shadow and quickly coiled up around her four limbs. They extended up to her chest, neck, and tails, completely incapacitating the fox.

Once the fox has been restricted by its Dark Magic Level 3 Shadow Bind, the dragon opened its mouth and started to gather up energy within it.

“?!”

The fox immediately recognized the dragon’s next attack, and her danger sensors are annoyingly alarming her. She tried to struggle, but it made her binds tighten further.

Even though the spell is Level 3, the dragon is the ruler of dark-typed dragons. Any spell of that element can be enhanced by the dragon greatly.

Before, the dragon was in the binds. But now, the table turned and it’s the fox is in the pinch. Immobilized, the fox watched as the black dragon released its Dragon Blast.

Being bound by extremely durable Shadow Binds, the silver fox fully racked her brain, seeking a slight hope to escape her dire situation.

In front of her, a powerful ancient dragon is gathering energy for its annihilating attack. An attack that she was sure would inflict serious and severe damage to her body, or even death.

She instinctively came up with an idea and reflexively activated the Holy Light and enveloped its maximum power around her body to overcome the darkness lingering on her body.

The interaction between the light and dark reacted, and smoke was emitted from it. The black binds around her are gradually dissipating as the light wins against the dark. 𝒃𝙚𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍．𝙘𝒐𝙢

Few of the ties vanished and disappeared. Once reaching a certain threshold, the fox vigorously struggled with the binds and successfully freed her left front limb.

Less than a second has passed; the fox has managed to get out of her restraints and do a small sidestep to the right. At the same time, the dragon has finished its charging and fired its Dragon Blast towards the struggling fox.

The moment the fox escaped, obliterating light passed through her left whiskers, reducing them to ashes. With just a hair’s breadth, the fox miraculously evades her unfortunate fate.

The beam goes through the trees between them and behind her, disintegrating them to dust upon being swallowed by its atomizing light.

“I MISSED? JUST BARELY, YES?” The dragon sneered at the fox.

Even though the blast barely misfired her vital parts, such as the head, she was not left unscathed. When she looked at her rear, she saw that two of her ten tails were missing—no, her tails had been obliterated by the Dragon Blast.

“—?!”

The fox felt the agony of seeing her disintegrated tails, but she endured the pain for her to focus on her fight properly. If she paid her attention somewhere else and slightly ignored her opponent, the opponent could seize that chance to attack, just like the dragon fastly approaching her.

The dragon, with its Steel Wings activated, is flying fast, several meters above the ground. The wind pressure it created caused the ground and collapsed trees to blast out tumultuously. In a matter of seconds, the dragon briefly traveled a kilometer and reached the injured fox.

“!!!”

The fox took the dragon head-on and collided with the massive, sturdy, and heavy body of the black dragon. The fox could not handle the monstrous momentum of the impact, and she was blasted away.

The dragon held the fox and dragged her around the forest and plowed the earth. The dragon didn’t stop, prolonging the dragging of the furry fox. Due to her bushy tails, the dragon seemed to be sweeping the fox on the surface like a mop.

Being dragged on the rough surface like that inflicted more damages to the fox. The dragon has much more physical attributes than her and has nothing to do about it.

Her magic keeps healing her wounds, and she cannot cast magic to fend off the dragon. Even if she used magic, she doubted it would penetrate its magic-resistant, tough scales. The longer that assault continues, the more she suffers.

Suddenly, the dragon finally stopped, then flew up to the sky, leaving her covered in her own blood.

She sustained critical injuries and is suffering from extreme pain. Broken bones, torn muscles, missing tails, internal hemorrhage, and so on. With her insufficient mana, her Regeneration could not keep up with her damages.

Despite being in that condition, she gathered her remaining strength and peered up. As she looked up to the sky, she saw the dragon preparing for other shot of its Dragon Blast.

Her eyes opened wide upon witnessing the heavenly sight of the hovering dragon. She doesn’t seem surprised since she saw it several times this day. She is worried about her well-being.

She is helplessly lying on the ground, severely wounded and slowly recovering. She has no way of moving in her current state, let alone evading a light-speed lethal attack.

The Dragon Blast would certainly be capable of terminating the injured Celestial Fox. It couldn’t be defended against with normal methods, and even her maximized barriers wouldn’t have been able to deal with it.

Blood was gushing out of her body, and her consciousness started to fade. She tried her best to move, but her body wouldn’t listen as her eyes gradually closed.

All of a sudden, as she was gradually seeing the light of the afterlife, a magic circle obstructed her vision of the sky. The magic circle is quite large, wide enough to cover her entire battered body.

A second later, gentle and soothing light rained down from the magic circle and bathed her in ease. Her mind is vague from the blood loss, and she let the light engulf her as she was unconscious.

Then, she quickly opened her eyes and realized her body had been fully healed. She remembered that Raphael would still give her support while he was gone. This must be his aid.

With her injuries healed by Raphael’s Area High Heal, she immediately stood up and ran away before the deadly Dragon Blast made a twenty-meter wide hole on her lying spot a second later.

“DAMN YOU, PUNY HUMAN!!!” The dragon boomed in annoyance after its prideful attack missed again.

The dragon was about to finish its first target, the fox, but had failed due to the intervention of a lowly human. The dragon got so mad that its voice resonated for kilometers.

Fueled with rage, the dragon flew down and rushed toward the fox. But before the dragon hit the earth, the fox swiftly stepped back and effectively evaded a meteoric sky dive; she doesn’t want to take the dragon head-on anymore.

The earth shook upon the landing of the gigantic black dragon. The impact of its furious drive even carved a shallow crater on the ground and emitted a significant shockwave.

The dragon cannot stomach its misses and has decided to change its way of offense to close combat instead.
