My King System

Chapter 227 - Struggle



The spatial blade which Yuki had forced to move instantly landed right in front of the dragon, in turn creating a type of protective shield for Yuki so that he couldn't be attacked from the front.

Seeing this, the dragon noticed the obvious flaw in Yuki's strategy and took advantage of his other open spots. Those being attacked from the sides or the back.

However Yuki wasn't going to act stupid on a situation like this and instantly forced 3 more blades to surround him. Each one covering his right side, left side or back. As such, enclosing him in a box-like structure which was entirely constructed from a spatial blade. 

Now having nowhere to attack from except one area, the red dragon grit its teeth before flying high in the sky so it could go in for a final attack which was the only way he could reach Yuki from.

"I see, so that's what you've opted for. It's a bit too risky. Even if you're an animal, you should still be smart enough to know that it wouldn't work," Yuki said in a disappointed tone as he expected the red dragon to fly towards the sky before turning back down and attacking Yuki from the top since it wasn't enclosed.

From the looks of it, it really did seem like the red dragon was going to go on with the plan which Yuki hypothesized to be the one it would use. However a sudden change of pace occurred which would cause Yuki some harm. 

"I guess I'll just counter its movements," said Yuki as he watched the red dragon begin to descend back towards the ground as he headed seamlessly towards where Yuki was. Seeing as his hypothesis was starting to come true, Yuki began to direct one of the spatial blades to start going down to where he was standing as it would just stab the red dragon.

However that plan would backfire as the red dragon made a sharp turn towards the side which made Yuki gasp in shock and confusion as he couldn't understand what the red dragon was planning.

That wouldn't matter for Yuki though as he had more important things to worry about like how he would stop the spatial blade as it was already moving at a speed where directing it back wouldn't work and it would still attack Yuki.

With a last second thought, Yuki quickly moved over to a corner of the box-like structure he was in, in turn barely avoiding the spatial blade which was close to cutting him in half.

"That was close. Maybe I should stop underestimating this beast," said Yuki as he caught his breath and prepared to counter attack.

However it wouldn't be that simple as while Yuki was busy recovering from his mistake, the red dragon was already spinning in circles around the box-like structure Yuki was in so it could gain some momentum. After a while of doing this, which was exactly when Yuki prepared to counter attack, the red dragon used its body to slam into one of the sides of the blades which were creating the box in which Yuki was enclosed inside. 

In doing this, the red dragon caused all of the blades which were near Yuki to slide down towards the other direction, opposite to the one where the force of the dragon had come from. One of the blades which were near Yuki almost even cut Yuki which caused him to stay extra alert while trying to avoid being injured as it would be bad news for him.

"Damn it! Did I really get outsmarted by an overgrown lizard? I'll make him pay,!" said Yuki as he lifted all of the 5 blades which were near him by simply pointing his fingers towards the sky. When the blades were lifted, all that remained was a simple child which had a bloodthirsty look that only sought revenge.

Without a single second wasted, Yuki forced all of his blades to point at the red dragon before commanding them to all chase the dragon until it was dead. Somehow knowing what Yuki's commands were, all of the blades extended from the spatial gates which they came from and began to chase the red dragon which a chain still hung from the back of their hilt which forced them to stay close to their respective spatial gates.

Nevertheless, the red dragon continued to dodge all of the attacks which were incoming towards it. For a while, now even a single slash made contact with its body as it slipped past off of the blades like a slimy snake which was running away for its life. All the while, all of the members of FFF's WD along with the smaller dragons which came out of the event stood there and watched the magnificent battle take place right in front of their eyes. 

"Let me hit you already!" Yuki complained as he continued to throw as many blades as possible at the red dragon while making them turn and twist to the point where it didn't even make sense as to how the red dragon was still alive. However all of Yuki's efforts would finally pay off as he manages to land a single scratch on the red dragon's face. Just seeing that little cut as blood began to flow out made Yuki gasp and smile as he was finally making progress.

Although that little cut would also backfire at Yuki as the red dragon got a sudden look of anger on its face before charging towards Yuki even while

dodging the ongoing attacks of the spatial blades. It got so bad that within just a few seconds, the red dragon had come face to face with Yuki who's smile of happiness was now completely wiped out as he stared at the dragon which wanted revenge for getting attacked.

"Oh no-" Yuki said right before the red dragon brought its claw forward and smacked Yuki's whole body and sent him flying into a nearby building before also going straight in that direction so it could deliver more devastating attacks.

Just that single attack alone would have been enough to kill nearly every single member of FFF's WD clan with ease.

"I seriously hate relying on them but I guess they're my only hope. Wait no!" said Yuki as he remembered something else. "Fallen angel of hell" wasn't his only treasured blade. In at moment, he remembered another familiar blade which would come in handy at a time like this. As such, he wouldn't have to call upon One or Zero.

[Open inventory]

Yuki looked through his inventory as quickly as possible before the red dragon could come near him and finally found the object he was looking for. Using his right hand which was open while his left hand carried "Fallen angel of hell", Yuki pulled out "Niflheim's holy treasure" from his inventory as he prepared to give everything he had into his battle.

Right before the red dragon came in contact with his body, Yuki used the new blade in his hand by placing as much stamina as it needed for it to start activating its special properties. However unlike "Fallen angel of hell", this weapon didn't cause the colour of the sky to change, nor did it create spatial gates which allowed other blades to come out of it. Instead, all it did was create a single tiny snowflake right in front of the injured Yuki.

Even the dragon which saw this happen as it charged towards Yuki wanted to laugh at how pathetic his weapon was.

However it's real powers would only get revealed once the red dragon got close enough as it came only a few centimetres away from Yuki. 

At that moment, Yuki closed his eyes as he braced for impact but nothing happened. 

While Yuki had his eyes closed, the single spec of a snowflake which was there began to grow in size as it became double the size of the dragon's head and acted as some sort of weak shield around Yuki.

Seeing as it looked to be just a simple overgrown snowflake which would still be weaker than a sheet of paper, the red dragon dived into it with no hesitation which instantly made it regret its decision.

The grain snowflake, instead of breaking or melting wrapped itself around the body of the red dragon as it somehow became stronger than steel while making it lose control over its own body.

Just a few seconds later, the snowflake began to grow once more as it swallowed the entire red dragon while making it look like a helpless fish that was caught in a net. However the red dragon continued to struggle as it believed that it could escape and still manage to kill Yuki.

In that precise moment, Yuki opened his eyes to see the red dragon helplessly struggling. That moment was also when the dragon's fate was sealed as the snowflake began to fix the patches which were empty and turned into complete ice. The red dragon was left frozen in a large block of ice as it couldn't even make a single move, let alone struggle for escape.
