Alice the Evil – [ダークファンタジー異世界]

After 10 minutes, a very large crater with a diameter of about 2 kilometers and a depth of 500 meters became visible. Alice, Arina, and Whitefox were still floating in the air, observing the True Abyssal Dragon Lord, which remained mostly hidden due to the thick smoke from the massive explosion.

"So, how much HP does it have left, roughly?"

"I don't know, Alice-sama, but it's likely around 35 to 40%."

Suddenly, Alice felt nauseous and coughed violently as a result of adding numerous buffs to her Tier S+ magic. She had added 5 metamagic buffs to her spell, which drained a significant amount of her mana.

"Ughhh!!"

Blood also spurted from her mouth, hitting the inside of her helmet. Using mana-draining magic often came with severe side effects, but Alice managed to suppress the most critical ones, such as physical harm and fainting.

"Alice-sama, are you okay!?"

Arina rushed to Alice's side, deeply concerned about her condition after using such powerful magic. She held Alice's back and examined her using her skills.

Alice knelt for a moment but then stood up while floating.

"Alice-sama, you've lost 75% of your mana!" Arina said with a worried tone.

"I know. I don't want everything I've gathered and the guild's legacy to be destroyed in one night."

"In that case, I'll continue to protect you, Alice-sama, as the Tanker and Support you've created."

Alice chuckled softly upon hearing Arina's somewhat unusual words, likely because she wasn't used to hearing her Servant or NPC speak.

"Haha, thank you," Alice smiled behind her helmet.

"Watch out!"

Not long after, the True Abyssal Dragon Lord emerged from the smoke and attempted to devour Alice, Arina, and Whitefox, but they managed to dodge in the nick of time using their high-speed capabilities.

Despite its giant size, the True Abyssal Dragon Lord moved at a speed similar to a normal-sized monster, which was not favorable for Alice.

Alice then summoned her two weapons, a sniper rifle she held and 10 floating swords on her back. These weapons were named [Ultimate AWP-X] and [Ten Blade of Olympus Fire].

One of the God Items Alice possessed, aside from God's Judgment, allowed her to change her role in battle based on the situation without affecting her skills and spells or incurring penalties. This allowed Alice to freely use any weapon, be it long-range or close-range, depending on the ongoing battle situation. Alice, Arina, and Whitefox were currently scattered and not in a single formation.

"Target the eye..."

Alice immediately aimed her sniper rifle at the True Abyssal Dragon Lord's eye and fired a golden bullet.

The golden bullet flew at an incredibly high speed toward the dragon, hitting its right cheek and causing a significant explosion.

"Hm?"

The True Abyssal Dragon Lord began gathering a massive amount of mana energy in its mouth, and Alice knew what skill it was about to unleash because she had faced the True Abyssal Dragon Lord in the game Monsterland before.

Not long after, Whitefox appeared near Alice, followed by Arina using [Teleport]. When Mythical Monsters prepared to use magic or spells, they gained absolute immunity to attacks, so it was pointless to attack for the time being.

"Arina!"

Alice called upon Arina to instruct her to use magic or skills that could protect Alice and White Fox.

[Dimensional Shield]

Instantly, a spherical purple shield appeared, protecting Alice, Arina, and Whitefox. Meanwhile, Alice switched her weapons, now wielding two swords. One of the sword blades appeared black with purple patterns, while the other was white with golden patterns.

The True Abyssal Dragon Lord roared once more, creating an enormous shockwave that even eroded the ground, making the previously formed crater even larger. Alice, Arina, and Whitefox were thrown downward due to the shockwave.

Even three level 150 creatures could be thrown off balance by the roar of a Mythical Monster. The three of them were propelled toward the ground but were still protected by the shield. However, the shield appeared cracked and on the verge of shattering.

[Dimensional Shield] is the Ultimate Skill and is equivalent to Tier S magic.

After the roar subsided, the TADL suddenly disappeared from the air. TADL could teleport to any location, but it had limitations.

"From below!"

Alice warned the others that TADL would emerge from below the ground, a prediction she made based on her previous experience fighting TADL.

Alice, Arina, and Whitefox immediately moved away from the area where the True Abyssal Dragon Lord was expected to appear. TADL emerged from underground at the predicted location, intent on devouring them all.

Of course, Alice and Arina didn't miss the opportunity created by TADL itself. Since TADL was quite fast, approaching it was challenging, but now Alice and TADL were in very close proximity.

"This is our chance!"

With determination and a serious expression, Alice leaped onto TADL's body. TADL's body appeared considerably damaged from the earlier hydrogen explosion caused by Alice.

Alice successfully landed on TADL's body and immediately used her twelve swords to brutally strike various parts of TADL's body. Alice's movements were lightning-fast, making her seem like a spinning top moving at incredible speed.

It can be said that Alice is currently reluctant to use too much magic and skills because she is concerned that there might be other players or powerful creatures that will attack her after defeating TADL. Alice is trying to use skills sparingly to prevent the worst-case scenario.

On the other hand, Arina uses a skill with a [Taunt] effect, causing TADL to relentlessly focus on targeting Arina, while Alice continues to wield her twelve swords brutally.

The ten floating swords appear to move automatically, and Alice only focuses on using the two swords she holds. Meanwhile, Whitefox continues to attack using many ice pillars created with magic.

Perhaps these attacks seem simple, but they can deal high damage.

On the other hand, the True Abyssal Dragon Lord starts flying higher into the air along with Alice and Arina, who continue to attack it. Arina attacks the side of TADL's face directly.

Of course, TADL is not passive when being attacked; it flies higher into the air, trying to breathe its darkness element breath towards Arina. However, Arina keeps evading it.

Everyone seems focused on the battle, so only the sound of slashes, TADL's roars, and the continuous [Taunt] effect emitted by Arina can be heard.

"True Abyssal Dragon Lord, damn it!"

True Abyssal Dragon Lord is one of the Mythical Monsters with the highest HP among the others, so it would take a long time to defeat it through physical attacks.

Suddenly, the body of the True Abyssal Dragon Lord, which was originally black, began to change to red in a very short time. Whitefox is still keeping her distance from the True Abyssal Dragon Lord, while Alice and Arina are in close range.

"Oh damn... I forgot about this,"

Alice forgot that the True Abyss Dragon Lord has a self-destruct skill, but the True Abyssal Dragon Lord won't be harmed if it uses that skill. If someone is hit by that skill, even a level 150 player could die instantly.

"Alice-sama!!"

True Abyssal Dragon Lord unleashed a massive explosion, as if it had detonated itself.
