Strongest Alchemist System
Chapter 23: The person who returns

Looking at the figure of Elvy who was slowly descending down, everyone was silent in astonishment. They did not seem to believe that the girl who had previously died was cut in half had come back to life.

“El-chan?!” mila exclaimed as soon as she saw Elvy coming back to life.

She immediately ran towards him excitedly and hugged him, even he immediately dropped me to the side as soon as he saw me who was still being carried by Elvy.

This guy's terrible.

“El-chaannn! Huaoo! Onee-chan is so worried about you you know! Please don't leave Onee-chan again like that!!” whining her with a loud cry while hugging Elvy very tightly.

I don't know why he looks like me.

Elvy also hugged her gently, and perhaps because she was experienced with me, she was able to calmly handle the woman.

“Sorry has made you worry, Mila-san,” she said with a gentle smile, stroking the head of the crying adult woman.

“Everything, sorry to worry you guys! Now that it's okay, leave it all to me! I will make this dragon accept all his deeds!” elvy shouted with a sharp gaze and pointed towards Roden who kept paying attention to him.

Hearing that everyone looked extremely happy, and a light of hope began to be seen in their eyes.

Now it's time to strike back.

“Fucking little bug! What can you do alone! Do you really think you can beat me!! Dreaming also has its limits!!” Feeling annoyed by Elvy's declaration, the dragon began to make him a target and ignored all the attacks from the other Elves.

Seeing that, I frantically immediately dragged Mila along with me to get away.

He seemed to be complaining, but I didn't care.

With incredible speed, Roden started running towards Elvy and intended to hit him. Using his sharp canine teeth, he got ready to eat the girl

“Raaaggghhh—!!”

But, still in his smile, Elvy managed to withstand the impact from Roden just by using his arm alone, it made Roden surprised. However, it was not enough to get there, Elvy strengthened the strength in his legs and with all his might began to lift the body of the dragon Roden.

“—Hah?!”

Seeing that, me and all the Elves who witnessed it opened our mouths in surprise.

I did know that the material I used might come from a powerful monster, but I can't believe it will be this strong.

Elvy easily lifted Roden's body up high, and then slammed him with all his might.

“Hiyah!” scream Elvy, and throw the dragon as far as possible.

“Oooh!”

Seeing that dragon being thrown off so easily, me and the Elves exclaimed.

It's really a great fight, our level is too different. Though I have not given him the [Buff Potion], what is with that beyond reason strength?

Isn't that too cheating?

“Keh! Damnit!” roden groaned as soon as he fell to the ground with a loud bang, making his body scream in pain.

“How, have you given up?” elvy asked as she flew over to see the dragon slumped on the ground.

“Redy?! Don't be arrogant, bajing*n!! Just because you can throw me once, you've acted like a winner?! I'll tell you what the real power of a dragon is like!!” roden screamed, and he charged straight towards Elvy once more at a savage speed.

Flapping his wings, he slid to where Elvy was flying. However, Elvy shrewdly avoided it, and they began to fight one-on-one above the sky.

The loud thumping sound continued to resound above the sky, as if the sky was about to collapse.

Roden repeatedly shoots Elvy with a fireball, but Elvy easily avoids him. Then, he began to approach Roden, and forcefully struck the dragon. However, Roden also managed to hold on with his fists.

Elvy once again retreated to take some distance, and Roden instantly swung his tail as soon as he saw the girl who wanted to escape. Elvy tried to dodge it, but it didn't take time and he simply deflected it using both wings.

“Cih! You're really disturbing!” Roden pressed Elvy at a more ferocious speed, and blew the girl's body away.

“Ergh! I won't let you hurt my friends anymore! I will beat you here!” shouted Elvy. He immediately flew closer to Roden as soon as his wound recovered, and punched the dragon's face with his small arms.

However, different from the looks of it, the strength exerted was much stronger. The dragon staggered slightly back when he received the fist.

“Cih! Basic lowly creatures! A creature like you should die and be my food is enough! That's why you were created!!” roden shouted with a gaze filled with anger.

“No!!” refute Elvy to Roden's statement, while hitting and fending off all incoming attacks.

“All beings deserve to get their happiness!! Just like you, they are trying to live too! They all fought hard to survive this harsh world! Just because they are weak, doesn't mean you deserve to determine their destiny!!” elvy added as she delivered one powerful punch to the dragon's face.

I've known this for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be this bad.

“Elvy-chan is really very innocent,” I said in a flat voice as I watched all their fights.

“Really, right?! That's what my sweet El-chan is!! She is really so innocent and cute!! Ahaha, it turns out that you have good eyes too, young man!!” said Mila beside me with excitement and patted my back.

This one woman is also as troublesome as my goddess.

That's why I can't focus on seeing their fight. Every time Elvy gets attacked and attacks, Mila always makes me her tool. He would sometimes pull my hair or hit me.

Really annoying.

Can't he watch quietly. Are you the father who watches football games?

Geez, my body hurts all though I'm not the one fighting.

“You really are a noisy girl!!” cetus roden with a fiery fury.

Until now, their fight was still tense and there was no sign of them being finished yet. This was because their strength was almost equal so it was difficult to determine who the winner was.

However, it seems that they are also fed up with it.

“I'm tired of this! I'll end you right now!” roden shouted, and at that moment, a blast of black flames burned his body, making his entire body currently enveloped by the smoldering black flames.

I and everyone who saw it was shocked.

It was the same power when he missed our previous attack. I don't know what it is, but that power can negate all the bad statuses he has, and increase his strength many times over.

This was critical, if he were to use his fire breath in his black flame mode, it was likely that Elvy would not be able to endure it.

He was indeed a Homunculus, and he was an immortal being. But, even that remained difficult for him to regenerate when his entire body was burned out without sparing the slightest dust.

But—

“Alright, I'm tired of all this too! Let's end this with a single attack!” said Elvy, who also began to get ready with his strongest attack.

“No Elvy-chan! You don't have to follow him!!”

Shit, he's too innocent.

It was indeed cool to fight each other using their strongest strength, arguably this was the fantasy fight I dreamed of. But, it's too risky if you think about it for real.

Whatever it is, I have to stop this.

But, unfortunately my voice could not reach them because they were too far above the sky, where many winds were driving away my voice.

It's really troublesome.

What am I supposed to do?

There, while I think of a way to help Elvy. Elvy was already preparing with his fists, he took a slightly lowered position, and focused all his strength on his right hand.

At that very instant, Elvy's right hand began to become increasingly large and bulky, forming the arm of a giant dragon.

“Eh?!” Seeing that I was surprised.

I can't believe he could do something like that. Actually how strong this Ragnarok dragon is, from its name I know it must not be an ordinary monster, but I can't believe only its teeth can be this strong.

No, now is not the time to think about it.

I need to figure out a way to stop Elvy or the dragon as quickly as possible.

The two of them were currently both gathering their strength all together to deliver a crushing attack that could kill his opponent in a single strike.

But, judging from the situation, I think Roden will first burn Elvy to the point of vanishing before Elvy can swing his fist at Roden.

Whatever it is, I have to think of something to help her.

Can I interrupt the dragon's concentration for a moment?

“Mila-san, can you direct your magic right in the dragon's eyes?!” I asked Mila who was currently also furious to see Elvy who was fighting against the dragon.

It seemed that he also understood the situation, his face looked panicked.

As he wanted to answer me, he ducked gloomily. “Sorry, but all my magic power is up, I can't use magic anymore for a while.”

Keh, this is really painful.

Is there no other way?

“Oh yes, Regime! Can you use my arrow to shoot the dragon's eyes?!” I shouted to the Regime who was currently standing on top of a tree watching Elvy fight as well.

Hearing that, he shook his head.

“Sorry to disappoint you, Riku. But, even I can't reach them from here.”

“Uuh..”.

My body became increasingly limp, and it made me worry even more about Elvy. I've exhausted all the ways I can to disturb the concentration of the dragon for a little while.

Come on, there's gotta be a way.

Think of something, Shinomiya Riku, or you'll lose Elvy again!

What am I supposed to do?

What am I supposed to do?

What am I supposed to do?

“Alright, it's too late! I'll burn you without rest!!” roden screamed, and he began to breathe out his black flame towards Elvy.

I'm already late.

This won't be able to help him anymore.

Shit, are we going to fail this time too?!

But—

Before Roden could breathe out his fire, an arrow suddenly pierced his eyes, and made him lose control of his fire breath.

Seeing that, my eyes opened wide.

“Who is it?” many spontaneous.

Not only me, everyone who saw him was also shocked.

“Mustahil...” muttered Mila as if in disbelief. He seems to know something about this, but he says nothing at all.

“Keggh!! What—“ groaned Roden when he realized his eyes had been pierced.

But, when he wanted to find out who the culprit of the arrow was, it was too late for him. Elvy had finished with his giant arm, and was preparing to smash all his strength onto the dragon.

“Alright, this is the end for you, Roden!!’ screech Elvy as she forcefully swung her mansion-sized dragon arm at Roden.

Realizing this, Roden intended to avoid it, but it was too late. Elvy's gigantic fist instantly smashed into his dragon body, and crushed all the flesh and bones he had mercilessly.

“Sial!” with a dead face.

Then—

‘Bum!’

—Laybe a mosquito that was patted hard, he died with all his body shattered.

The fight ended with Elvy standing as the winner.
