Reincarnated as a Dragon's Egg

I dive down towards Eldia. As he lifts an arm, I quickly swing my own. [Dimension Claw] cuts through space to rake his arm. His tendons sever, and his arm falls.

This can work. At this distance, I can kill him before he can escape.

…I’ll do it in close combat. That's the most certain way. If I give him a chance to recover, I’ll be pressured by Beelzebub. With this difference in stats, I should be able to kill him in close combat without taking much damage in return.

I meet his eyes. I wonder for a moment if he’s about to use [Scorching Breath] or [Freezing Breath], but instead he just unmovingly stares at me through empty eyes.

I’ve reached him. I swing my foreleg down, but just barely miss. Eldia didn’t dodge, nor did I hesitate. Instead, my body suddenly lurched backwards.

Black walls have appeared, surrounding me on all six sides and trapping me in a translucent cube.

…This is Lilixira’s skill, [Gravillion]. It’s a vicious skill that traps and squishes the target.

It apparently also has the effect of pulling the target towards the centre.

The black walls surge towards me as the cube contracts. My legs, head, and tail are pressed in.
