Chapter 612
It isn't flapping its remaining wing or using any magic to slow or change the direction of its fall.
The creature seems to have given up and is just permeating sadness as it falls into this artificial abyss.
My steps through the air are powerful, so the distance between us closes in less than a minute. However, half my mind is still in fear of the dual-wielding silver swordsman right behind me. Any lag in my downward momentum will leave me open for another attack that I can't defend.
My breathing slows, and I focus on what I have to do as all three of us plunge into the darkness at speeds exceeding anything I've ever flown before.
Every second that passes, multiple kilometers of downward motion through the crater pass.
I charge up both my swords with everything I have, pointing them forward at the dragon's core and making an all-out final push.
There's no more thinking involved; I just thrust my blades through the monster's chest.
A yellow hexagon of light is created still, as an instinctual response to stop my blades, but it's shattered instantly.
Both my swords pierce its scales and flesh, plunging deep into the bright yellow and white True Core full of Divine Light.
