Chapter 943: Slaying Dragons From Left And Right!
-----
Eric and Alberta started singlehandedly defeating dozens of Mithril Drakes on their own. My Familiar Army was rapidly taking them down as well, with the combination of fire and ice to break through their defenses, and with the Vampire Spirits, the Unique Familiars and the Tamed Monsters led by Eleanora's might, they were taking care of at least 60% of all of the incoming foes.
However, more kept sneaking out of their ranks, rushing to attack us. Each Drake was roughly five meters tall, rather gigantic and monstrous beasts, making them formidable resilient to damage. Eric distracted them with wind blasts and weakened them severely, while Alberta swiftly crushed them with her giant, flying golem and their cannon attacks and blazing hammer, which can freely grow in size.
At the same time, Chris was rushing forward alone, handling dozens of Drakes coming his way with his Spirits assistance. Erika and Elizabeth were close by, utilizing their powerful reinforced weapons to smash and crush through the Drakes. Their numbers were quickly going down.
And I noticed Erdrich and Elfriedden rapidly advancing. Their Stats had increased a lot as well after their recent Rank Up. And both of them now had a new, fourth Spirit. Which they were immediately employing against these high ranked monsters.

His fists and rapid movements made of the Drakes mere sandbags, Erdrich Skills combined with his Auras, Ki, Mana, and Demonic Energy made him a completely formidable fighter. And these were just the base stats. Once boosted with his [Accursed Seven Layered Demon Transformation] Skill, he constantly gained higher and higher Stats as he underwent his Half-Demon Transformation.
The tone of his skin constantly changed, as he quickly achieved the Third Layer of this Skill's boundless potential of Seven total Layers, his skin becoming gold with silver-colored tattoos spreading through his body.
His fists once hitting a foe with his new pair of gauntlet spirits, would release explosions of golden demonic flames, burning and sapping his foes of their life, ki, and mana.
But that wasn't all…
"ROOARR!"
"Good, come as many as you can! {Demonic Ki Nova}!"
Erdrich released a large accumulation of Demonic Energy and Ki from the palm of his hands, unleashing an explosive blast of pure red energy, consuming a dozen Drakes into a huge, area-of-effect attack that left a huge crater in the cave's floor.
BOOOM!
Erdrich finally acquired a ridiculous, wide range Skill, and he was using it all the time. His reserves of Ki and Demonic Energy never emptying after he unlocked his gauntlet spirit, capable of draining Ki and Life from foes he hurts with them.
"Hahaha! Elfriedden, you better not stay behind! You're lagging a bit too much, aren't you?"
"Shut up!"
And Elfriedden was right behind him.

Elfriedden didn't had the best physical power, but his Agility and Dexterity were the highest amongst our group, if I don't count myself in the equation because I am naturally a Rank above them. After his Rank Up, he once more acquired a peculiar Spirit that at first sight seemed rather useless to him.
It was a pair of beautiful blue leather boots, not oversized but just the right size for Elfriedden. At first he found them the most ridiculous spirit ever, but after unlocking a skill that worked in tandem with it, his opinion changed completely.
"I will not yield against such insolence, you demon bastard!" Elfriedden roared, having enough of Erdrich teasing.
As he rushed across the Drakes' numbers, he flew using his wyvern wings from my Buff Card, which had been combined with his ice dragon skills to resemble a huge pair of frost dragon wings. He conjured a hundred projectiles made of "Dragon Frost", a much stronger and as tough as mithril ice, and impaled the monsters through their entire bodies, giving them agonizing deaths.
And while doing so, he stomped on them, quite literally. Using his Ice Titan's Boots Spirit and the Ice Titan's Steps Skill, he was able to delicate step over foes and then crush them with an immense weight, while freezing them at the same time.
In mere seconds, he caught up to Erdrich, while quickly transforming his Needle Spirit into a mighty Spear and his thread into a mighty ice dragon armor over his body.
"GRAAARRRGH!"
However, the "peaceful" hunting was coming to an end, as the boss of all the Mithril Drakes, the Mithril Drake Queen, stepped forwards, crushing any familiar on her way and killing them on the spot.
"I suppose it's finally time to deal with you."
