Chapter 41: Karma
I leaped into the air, gripping my sword in one hand as I lunged at Tiamat. My other lit up as I used [Fireball], flinging the flames forward at the dragon.
She responded by opening her mouth, breathing out a massive burst of blue flames that easily overpowered the fireball, consuming it whole as the flames streamed toward me.
I flicked my wrist, a massive wall of ice appearing as I used [Ice Conjurging] to block the flames. The ice didn't hold for long, melting and being blasted through near-instantly, but the split second was enough.
I reached down, gripping the [King's Claw] and squeezing it. As I did, a notification appeared to the side of me.
[[F-Tier] [Sacred Treasure] [King's Claw] has been activated!]
[You will temporarily gain access to five skills!]
[Skills rented: [First-Strike], [F-Tier Speed Enhancement], [Piercing Blow], [Momentum Boost], [Rampaging Beast]].
[Scalability] - [King's Claw] has recognized [Great Dragon King] [Chaos Dragon Karma] [Tiamat] - Level 750 as your opponent!
The power of your rented skills has increased!
I used [Momemtum Boost] and shot down to the floor instantly, allowing for the burning blue flames to stream over my head. The [Scalability] wasn't just for show - the momentum boost had flung me downward faster than I'd ever moved before.
Tiamat was an insanely strong opponent, so I could use the abilities of her own sacred treasure against her.
