Chapter 251 Roy’s Dragon Slayer Magic
Looking at the changes in Giovanni’s expression, Roy could roughly guess what he was thinking and could not help but sneer inwardly.
But he did not say anything. After calling out to Julia and Ca.s.sandra, he took advantage of the fact that night had not pa.s.sed to begin his journey again.
Lying on Fat Tiger’s long back, Roy glanced at Giovanni, who was with the undead army below. Roy could not trust this vampire count. The so-called cooperative relations.h.i.+p was currently only a verbal agreement, and Roy could not even be bothered to sign a demon contract with Giovanni.
This was because he knew that Giovanni was also watching, watching to see if Roy could help him achieve his wish. Since he could easily betray Arantir, he could also easily betray Roy. But this guy did not understand that the so-called cooperation could only be discussed when both parties’ strength was equal. When your strength was weaker than your collaborator, and you still wanted the other party to fulfill their promise, it was simply a pipe dream. In Roy’s opinion, a few hundred years of being an undead had made Giovanni’s mind go stiff…
Therefore, Roy only planned to squeeze whatever value he could out of this guy.
After looking at Giovanni for a bit, Roy stopped paying attention to him and began to think about how to deal with Arantir.
He was certain that Arantir would come back. It was impossible for this fanatic believer of Asha to let go of any demon he saw, especially one like Roy, who had already shown grave threat. After fighting Roy this time, Arantir had already figured out Roy’s methods, and it would certainly be more difficult to deal with him the next time he appeared.
As a hero who had made a name for himself in the world of Ashan, Arantir definitely exceeded most high-rank demons in terms of strength. He was only a little bit away from becoming a demiG.o.d, plus he had that powerful spectral dragon, the Death Incarnation. It was no wonder that the death lords of the kingdom of Heresh regarded him as a powerful contender for becoming the undead monarch.

Although Roy had the upper hand in this battle with Arantir, it could only be said that it was not much of an advantage. This was mainly because Roy’s two elemental powers of frost and darkness did not have much of a restraining effect on the death power of the undead. It was the same for the Dark Lightning. Although it had the special effect of annihilating souls, due to energy collision, most of its power was expended to offset the thick death power on the spectral dragon. The theory of energy restraint was universal in any world. If Roy could use the power of holy light, even if he were just an ordinary high-rank demon, he would probably be able to make Arantir flee in a sorry state. But the problem was that Roy could not use the power of holy light. When energy restraint was not achievable, two sides of similar strength naturally could not form a crus.h.i.+ng effect against the other. Thus, it was difficult to eliminate the opponent quickly.
In order to kill Arantir and seize his soul, Roy had to find a way to kill the spectral dragon so that it could no longer protect Arantir. As long as the spectral dragon was killed, Roy had plenty of ways to get close to the fragile mage Arantir. Therefore, while traveling, Roy sat on Fat Tiger’s back, thinking about how to improve his strength.
The first thing Roy thought of was flames! Although not as obvious as the power of holy light, the power of flames was quite effective against undead. So Roy’s first thought was to create flames for himself.
Expending souls could allow Roy to create some skill models that used flames through the system. But such skills would probably be activated through magic power, and their power would be limited to Roy’s attributes and magic power output.
The best way was to create a flame clone and then fuse with it to obtain a magic power circuit of flames. He could then directly transform this elemental power into his own source power and use it as he wished in the future. But looking at the number of souls he had, Roy felt a little depressed because there were simply not enough to create a second clone of the same level.
After all, Roy now wanted to create clones that could fuse with him. Every time he made one, the consumption would double… In particular, when he battled against Arantir’s undead army earlier, he did not obtain any souls from those d.a.m.n undead after killing them, as though he had fought for nothing. Roy’s second thought was to target the spectral dragon specifically.
In this world, dragons could be considered the favorites of the world. Not only were the Elemental Dragons revered as the dragon G.o.ds, but other dragons were also thriving in this world. Although Roy only encountered a spectral dragon this time, it was still a dragon after all. And Roy had just come here. If he continued to stay here, he did not know how many dragons would appear and oppose him. It could even be said that angels and t.i.tans were not necessarily more threatening than dragons in this world.
Furthermore, unlike other races, dragons were naturally resistant to magic. Roy did not want to get into bitter battles every time he encountered dragons in the future.
Therefore, he felt that it might be necessary to develop an ability specifically against these dragons, such as the Slaughtering Dragon Art, Dragon Slayer, or… Dragon Slayer Magic?!
With this thought, he could not stop because he found that with the more than thirty thousand souls he currently had, creating Dragon Slayer Magic might be possible. According to Roy’s estimation, this kind of Dragon Slayer Magic did not involve any increase in strength but only used existing magic power to deal greater damage to dragons. Such an ability might not consume too many souls.
Roy went to work right away. He patted Fat Tiger’s neck to get him to walk more steadily, and then he summoned the system interface and began drawing.
This time, Roy made an animated model. After all, just an item with the attribute was not easy to display the effect of Dragon Slayer Magic. Thus, Roy planned to make this ability into a status skill similar to Cryogenic Fate.
As the carrier, Roy chose his tail.
Speaking of which, Roy had not used his tail to fight for a long time. In the face of increasingly powerful enemies, his tail had gradually become useless, and it just so happened that he could modify it this time.
In Roy’s memories, Dragon Slayer Magic belonged to the relatively special Slayer Magic in Fairy Tail. The so-called Slayer Magic referred to the rare magic produced to eliminate specific things. In addition to the Dragon Slayer Magic, there were also the G.o.d Slayer Magic and Devil Slayer Magic.
The latter two did not need to be discussed for the time being. Dragon Slayer Magic referred to transforming the user’s physique into a dragon’s body and was used to kill dragons. This kind of transformation often caused parts of the body to have dragon characteristics, such as dragon scales.
According to the circ.u.mstances of creating skills in the past, Roy estimated that when he created this skill, the system might also read his memories to perfect it. Therefore, if he wanted to use this skill, some dragon characteristics would probably appear on Roy’s body. In order to prevent the location of these characteristics from being uncontrollable, Roy simply chose his tail as the carrier.
Through drawing, he depicted the gradual changes on his tail, making hard dragon scales gradually appear on it to achieve the special effect of this skill… Of course, it was only the tail.
This special effect was naturally relatively simple, so it did not take Roy long to complete it. Then he defined the attributes of the skill.
Dragon Slayer Magic:
This ability can be activated and deactivated at will.
When this ability is active, all attacks will cause greater damage to dragons and dragon subspecies.
When this ability is active, the user can consume the magic of the target dragon to gain increased stamina recovery, strength growth, and improved defensive capabilities.
When using this ability, the user will not suffer from motion sickness when on any form of transportation.
Roy deliberately added the last one after thinking about it for a long time. After all, he was about to become a demon lord. If he used this ability and vomited, how would that look?
Originally, Dragon Slayer Magic had a specific target. For example, Fire Dragon Slayer Magic was used to kill fire dragons, and Lightning Dragon Slayer magic was used to kill lightning dragons. Roy could have set the dragon scales on his tail to change to different colors to achieve a better targeting effect. But the problem was that there were too many dragons. In addition to the commonly seen five-colored dragons like black dragons, white dragons, red dragons, green dragons, and blue dragons, there were also bronze dragons, copper dragons, gemstone dragons, fairy dragons, bone dragons, spectral dragons, dragon liches, and so on. It was too troublesome to match them one by one, so Roy simply made it work for everything After defining it, Roy consumed souls to materialize it.
The next second, the souls Roy had stored in the system s.p.a.ce started rapidly depleting….
One thousand, two thousand, ten thousand, twenty thousand. Finally, after consuming twenty-two thousand souls, it stopped!
Dragon Slayer Magic materialized successfully!
