Chapter 75-Farosh Dragon
Kylia left the village and headed towards the Faron region at Mach 1, taking only a few of hours to arrive. After a couple minutes of searching at high altitude Kylia and Zirka found the dragon Farosh soaring near Floria Falls.
Looking over Floria bridge, Kylia soon realized just how majestic it is in real life. Its horns sparkled with lightning as dozens of lightning balls radiated off the dragon's 338-meter body along with the large updraft of air that it creates in its graceful flight.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Zirka said. "We got no time to waste!"
Shaking herself out of her stupor Kylia swooped down towards the dragon Farosh before leveling out a couple of meters above its mid-back.
"What do we do now?" Kylia asked Zirka.
"First we need to get its attention." Zirka explained. "Strike it really hard and fast to send it into a frenzy. Then throw me in its mouth then fetch me out!"
"Why?" Kylia asked.
"I need to be inside to get the best of its essence." Zirka said. "Simply snatching a claw or a scale is simply not enough!"
"Ok." Kylia flew upside down as she circled to the dragon's soft underbelly. Once positioned she sent a relatively weak plasma slash of 10,000C upwards, no reaction except for shedding a couple of scales.
"Too weak, try again." Zirka said.
"Tougher than I thought…" Kylia steeled her eyes as she sent out a 100,000C plasma slash. Too much power and Kylia were afraid that she might accidentally slash the dragon in two.
"Roar!" The belly, already weakened by Kylia's previous slash, now bore a shallow scratch with red blood seeping out. In its fury the dragon reared up and roared, green lightning arcs radiating meters into the surrounding area and green lightning orbs multiplying by tenfold.
"Welp, we angered it!" Zirka said.
"I know!" Kylia snapped back as she accelerated to Mach 1 from underneath and quickly outclimbed the dragon that was now flying at 300km/h.
"Its mouth is closed!" Kylia shouted as she looked down at the dragon's head.
"Well pry it open!" Zirka retorted.
"Tsk!" The pupil irises in Kylia's eyes, which were already rotating quite fast, now blurred out into a secondary black ring around her main pupils. Kylia's hair shimmered as plasma filaments extended outwards forming two ginormous plasma hands that latched onto the dragon's jaws, forcing its mouth open.
"Now! Jump in!" Kylia shouted!
"Have you gone insane! I don't have legs! You need to throw me!" Zirka shouted back.
Embarrassed Kylia took Zirka out of her scabbard and threw her into the dragon's mouth.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Zirka's scream trailed off as the blade tumbled end over end into the dragon's throat and vanished into the dark.
Kylia hovered in front of the dragon's jaw, strained plasma hands crackling as they held it open. Farosh thrashed, trying to shake her off, and the whole sky crackled with green lightning.
"Zirka?"
"IT'S WET IN HERE!" came a muffled reply. "I'm absorbing power now! Just hold the mouth open for a few more seconds!"
"A few seconds?!"
"Maybe a few more than a few!"
The dragon twisted and thrashed about but the plasma hands did not budge. Kylia gritted her teeth. Staring at the dragon created a strange temptation to test her power and see how much punishment the dragon can stand. To use the plasma hands to split its jaw open, crush its skull, flay its skin off and then tear it into chunks.
Shuddering, Kylia put those thoughts away and focused on what was at hand.
"Woosh!" Unexpectantly Zirka somehow ejected herself from deep inside the dragon's maw.
Catching Zirka with her left-hand Kylia asked. "What now?"
"Raise me up and prepare yourself!" Zirka shouted back.
"Wha-!" Before Kylia could continue a stream of bright green flames shot out of Farosh's mouth, aimed right at Zirka. Kylia quickly raised her Zirka up to block the flames.
After less than a second the stream of green flames ended leaving Zirka's blade covered in green aura. At the same time the plasma hands dissipated and Farosh scurried away like a rat now that Kylia felt the dragon had served its purpose.
"Raise me up high, now!" Zirka called.
Raising the blade in a heroic pose, the sword suddenly flashed a golden light and grew a tiny bit in proportion to Kylia's size.
"Hmm…running a self-diagnostic." Zirka mumbled to herself. "Most severe damage from the last 10,000 years has been repaired, health at 80%. Energy stores are still empty, however with my major magic conduits and circuitry repaired I can now absorb external energy to solve this. Strength now fluctuates around Sub Boss Level, up from a Peak Mini Boss and down from the original Master Sword's peak of Goddess Level. All in all, things are looking good!"
"Hmm!" Kylia responded back.
"I'll take that as a compliment, but now onto Naydra and then Dinraal we go!"
…
"Here is the second stone!" Ghirahim clutched the Kokiri Emerald in his right hand while grinning at the shivering Lord of Mabe Village.
"Now where would that final stone be?"
…
"Kylia, you will regret this!"
Yuter: "…"
[Author note: I changed the design of the Valor eye activating from a Sharingan like K Tomoe to just a black ring in the iris. Makes so much more sense and the previous design copied the original Naruto inspiration a little too much. Also, I'm somewhat abandoning the Susanoo like plasma giant for Kylia. It really copies Naruto too much and does not make much sense for a character like Kylia, especially after the introduction of Ghirahim. He is just too fast. Also unlike the ninja world Kylia body is a lot tougher and the cost effectiveness for creating an entire plasma giant is poor. The energy consumption is too high and for what she can block with a plasma giant, she can definitely block with a much smaller plasma wall (sort of like Frieren). So yeah, no more black Ks in Kylia's eyes and plasma giant usage in quite a while.]
