X-Loves: From Another World
Chapter 45: Zui, The Second Elder

A pretty clear morning in the sky. People seem to pass by to move, either on foot or by riding Layang. Some of them drove to and from downtown Lhokseumawe. Seen the city in the north of Pasai Region looks very crowded. Not too surprising because the city is one of the busiest port cities in the Strait of Malacca. The sea was the link between the eastern end of the Azian Continent and the western end of the Veropa Continent at Tierra Hyuma, and the city of Lhokseumawe was one of the favorite stopovers for transcontinental traders.

Anna Sahilatua, Dwi Septianto, and Aldy Heraldy fly into the region to welcome the arrival of the Second Elder, Zui, and defeat him before destroying the city. Seeing from what Ika the First Elder did to North Bacan made the two Parachi worried. The Second Elder was definitely stronger than the First Elder, and it was inconceivable what kind of damage he could inflict.

They also landed smoothly. Worries are still on their minds. But what happened was beyond a doubt. Aldy didn't land them downtown.

“Lah, this is not Lhokseumawe. We are still in the middle of the forest,” Anna cetus.

“Crue. We didn't land downtown. Because according to the information obtained by Tia, Zui will appear in this place,” explained Aldy.

“Oh so, huh? Good too anyway. This place is quite far from the settlement. We do not need to worry about any injured residents,” said Dwi.

“But we can't let our guard down either. We don't know what the Second Elder is as strong as,” tepis the Da class president.

This is a forest that is not too dense, located on the slopes of a mountain located about a dozen kilometers southwest of Lhokseumawe. The atmosphere seemed lonely here, there was no sign of human existence other than the three of them. The leaves of the tree moved in the wind. Wild birds chirped from a far enough direction. The three stared in all directions, focused and alert. Everything was silent in the clear weather, until Anna saw something from the sky.

“It...”

They're watching. A black object flew in from two o'clock. Its shape looks like an oval, but shortly after its original shape began to be seen, a pair of wings and a long tail can now be seen by both eyes. The figure was moving towards them at a speed of about 60 km per hour. He seemed to float until he finally landed on the top of the hill with a hard hit, producing scattered dust.

BRUKK…

The original form of the figure was blocked by the dust it produced. But the black shadow of its shape can still be seen quite clearly.

“GRROOOAAAAAHHHH.

The creature growled, its voice so thunderous and its echoes were heard up to several hundred meters away. His voice is very similar to the monsters that are usually in the film.

His growl that produced the gust of wind removed all the dust that covered him. Now the original form can be seen clearly.

“Not wrong again, he..”.

It was a two-headed dragon capable of standing firm. It was nearly three meters tall with a wingspan twice the size of its body. The skin is very thick and purple-black, except the scales on the abdomen are white. The breathing of the two dragon heads was seen emitting purplish-colored smoke with a large and dense mana content. That's right, he's Zui the Second Elder.

Unlike the previous Elder, Zui was the only Elder who could not speak human language. He can only growl like a dragon in fantasy stories.

The dragon looked towards the three of them then roared with a thunderous voice. Ordinary people would probably run away immediately when they heard it. Not with Anna. The blonde-haired girl was even more eager to take down the creature.

“Good. This is the time,”

Anna took out her Heirloom Parang and took a swing to attack. Shortly afterwards, he cast a spell.

“Mantra Copyright, Bayu..”.

It was not very clear what spell was spoken by him, but the wind magic produced circled his body. A few seconds later, the girl darted quickly towards the dragon. The magic technique he created produced a gust of wind that was quite strong.

The girl seemed very excited to defeat the Second Elder, but unfortunately she acted too quickly.

“Wait, Anna. Don't be rash!!” aldy Sahut.

“HIYAAAA!!!”

As if ignoring her screams, Anna still darted towards the purple dragon and intended to punch her machete into the creature's neck. But it was true what the senior said, the girl was too rash.

TINGGS…

“Aghh..”.

The sharp heirloom machete did not manage to cut off the creature's neck even with the help of wind magic. Anna felt pain in both of her hands that were holding the hilt of the weapon. It was like hitting a very hard power pole.

Seeing the opportunity, one of the dragon heads launched a counterattack by trying to bite************ Anna. Fortunately, he still avoided.

“Heh, perverted dragon base. How dare you!” said Anna.

As if still unwilling to release its prey, the dragon again launched an attack. This time he was about to pull out a fireball from both of his mouths. It was very difficult for the girl to dodge her attacks this time. But it seems that luck still favors the girl.

A fire magic attack hit the dragon's head, distracting him from Anna. The magic attack came from the bottom, or rather was launched by his partner Dwi.

“Anna..”.

The girl managed to dodge, but now the attention of the dragon was diverted to Dwi and Aldy who were below her. The two-headed monster then flew towards them.

“Sial, Phoenix” Overpass

“Cih..”.

“Still less, Dwi. Copyright Spell, Bara, Multi Ultima Float Phoenix”

Aldy next to him launched a similar magic attack, but with a much larger and more powerful number of firebirds. Dozens of fire birds lunged at the dragon and made it stop instantly. The magic technique that the white-haired man unleashed was much more powerful. The dense smoke enveloped the Second Elder, making him flinch. This is an opportunity for the two to escape and prepare to prepare a counterattack.

The dragon roared again to remove the smoke that enveloped it. And just as the thick smoke was gone, Anna again drew her sword at the creature. Now the girl uses water magic to defeat him.

“RECEIVE THIS!!!”

He thought that water magic might be able to extinguish the fire magic. But apparently it is still not enough to bring down the creature.

“Cih, what the fuck?”

The dragon again attacked Anna, and again the attack was stopped by the dark snake magic belonging to Dwi.

The flying creature faced various attacks from the three. A melee attack from Anna, a ranged attack by Dwi, and a mixed attack by Aldy. The various magic elements they had taken out to defeat the Second Elder, yet none of them were able to break through his extremely hard skin. Although the flying creature moves quite slowly, only about 60 km per hour, but until now still no one is able to subdue it. Even Aldy's sky thunder spear class was still unable to penetrate it.

The purple dragon was still unable to be dropped, and he did not look exhausted at all. In contrast to the three humans who had almost run out of mana to fight.

“DWII..”.

Anna's partner, Dwi already looks really exhausted. He was barely able to stand up again so tired from using too much magic. The man did use more magic compared to his two friends. No wonder he's running out of energy now.

Seeing one of his opponents who was about to fall, the purple dragon directly launched a fire breath attack at him.

“DWII..”.

Anna who saw it instantly blocked the fire's breath with her special protective magic.

“Salawaku”

BOOMMMM..The fire breath hit the shield and produced an explosion that broke the atmosphere. The attack looked simple, but it had a very strong mana content. If Anna had only used ordinary Parisha, she might not have been able to hold it.

The fire breath slowly disappeared. Anna managed to hold him off with her special shield. Even so, he appeared to be very exhausted from resisting the attack. He looks like he is bored.

“Anna..”.

“I... I will protect you.. Dwi.. Until we can return... Huff....”.

Thinking that the danger had passed, Anna let go of her shield. Unfortunately, it was a disaster for him.

A ball of fire shot towards him from behind the wisp of smoke. The girl didn't have enough time to stay away. He also suffered the attack.

“Agghhh..”.

“ANNA!!”

The blonde-haired girl was blown away tens of meters away by the explosion from the unexpected attack. Not long after, the dragon roared back and shot towards Dwi.

Seeing that, Aldy immediately attacked him with a wind sword from the left. But again, it was still not enough to pierce the monster's thick skin. The senior crashed after one of the dragon heads hit the man's stomach.

“KAK ALDY!!!”

BRUKK. The man was barely able to move his body because it was almost out of mana, while his two friends were blown away by the monster attack. He is now in a state of emergency.

“Sial, how is this?” thought.

He was really desperate. But who would have thought. In the dead, something happened.

SWINGE…

GROOAAAHH….

The dragon seemed to be roaring in pain, like something had slashed his body. And sure enough, the white scales release green liquid due to slashed something. But who did it? Anna and Aldy were knocked quite far away from the place, while Dwi himself was barely able to move at all. No need to wait for long, the answer to that question was already in front of his eyes.

“Basic 'Aneuk Bajeung', how dare you disturb the peace of this Pasai Land,”

There was the sound of a grown man in front of him. He stepped his foot right in front of the Javanese man. From the way he spoke, it seemed like he was a native of this region. So who is he?

“K.. You who?”
