Erii: A Journey Through the Heavens Begins with Frilian

Erii rubbed her eyes and quickly took out her camera to take a picture.

She had only ever seen such a fantastical sight in games and anime. She bet that if this yak were in her own world, it would definitely be defined as a dragon-blooded creature!

Because it's too big.

It is at least twenty meters long, with a rugged suit of armor cascading down its towering back, and thick hair peeking out from the gaps, exuding an ancient and dignified aura.

The bull's head is huge and ferocious, with two pairs of horns like strong branches.

Besides their size, they also differ from normal yaks in facial features.

It has only one eye.

As for why Erii knew this...

The moment she pressed the shutter, the enormous monster opened its single eye in the center of its face; the vertical eye in the photo clearly contained the resentment and grumpiness of someone who had just woken up.

"Moo!"

Instantly, a roar that pounded the eardrums echoed repeatedly in the cave.

"The Mountain Barbarian Demon Bull," Frilian said calmly, "is not wild."

"It's wearing armor, could it be?" Philen asked.

"It may have once been a mount of some demon," Frilian said.

As the two were talking, the ground began to shake violently.

The Mountain Demon Bull had already staggered down from the Golden Mountain and was charging forward relentlessly towards the invaders.

Even from a distance, a suffocating stench assaulted her senses, causing the female magician to gag repeatedly.

"What should we do?"

"withdraw!"

"The exits have all collapsed, where can we run to?"

The adventurers were at a loss; faced with such a colossal creature, these third-rate warriors simply did not have the courage to confront it head-on.

"Philan, you take charge of defense, I'll..." Frilian hadn't finished speaking when she caught a glimpse of red hair flashing by out of the corner of her eye.

Whoosh!

Everyone felt something flash by, and then they saw Erii facing the Mountain Barbarian Bull without dodging or flinching.

"Has she gone mad?" the female mage exclaimed in fear.

"Can a warrior really get close to this kind of monster?" an old adventurer asked with difficulty.

"Damn it, are we men or what? Sending a little girl to her death!" another adventurer roared, gritting his teeth and wanting to risk his life to rush out as well.

"Quite the opposite." Frillian shook her head and put down her wand.

"Eri, her?" Philon asked with some concern.

"She has never used her full strength since we first met," Frilian replied, stating her deduction.

Philon's eyes darted around, and he said in a barely audible voice, "Her too?"

call!

With a light tap of her toes, Erii leaped into the air.

The blade hummed as it was held in both hands as it fell, while the Pompompurin plush toy hanging from the backpack bounced up and down.

Her dragon blood purity reached a terrifying level that no hybrid could match, and when using the power of her bloodline, her physical body was no different from that of a next-generation dragon.

There used to be a limitation of bloodline backlash, which the body could not withstand.

But now, with just one injection, Erii has essentially had her limiter removed, making her a true humanoid dragon!

Her limitless potential will continue to be explored and unleashed in battle!

Clang—

With a single slash, a bull's horn flew up.

Before the mountain bull demon could roar in anger, Erii had already stepped on its neck and charged backward. The fighting instincts granted by the dragon blood drove her to make various judgments at lightning speed, and she locked onto the gap in the armor in just one glance.

Between the base of the neck and the shoulders/back!

Erii stopped abruptly, raising her long sword high with both hands.

hum~

Words of Power: Judgment and Release.

The killing intent coiled around the blade, condensing it into a straight line.

"Moo!!!"

Feeling threatened, the mountain bull demon began shaking its head wildly, causing the cave to seem about to collapse.

Erii's wooden clogs were gone, and her blood-stained white socks had long been removed. Her bare feet seemed nailed to the thick hair, and her expression was inexplicably sacred.

At this moment, the chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) spirit buried deep within is burning fiercely.

She wanted to end this heinous maze boss in the most stylish and dazzling way, just like a protagonist in a ghost story!

"Accept your destiny."

The arm fell, and the knife tip pierced through!

Hair, flesh, and cervical vertebrae were cut open in an instant.

With a loud "pop," a large amount of arterial blood gushed out from the rupture, like a blooming crimson wreath.

Erii's delicate pink toes gently stomped, and the entire bull's head slid smoothly off the base of its neck, crashing to the ground with its single eye wide open.

As her massive, mountain-like body crashed to the ground, she lightly jumped down. Amidst the shocked and bewildered gazes of the crowd, she lifted her skirt, tiptoed, and ran a short distance away to put her wooden clogs back on.

She looked down at her dirty wooden clogs, then kicked them away and pulled a pair of pink and white running shoes from her backpack.

Everyone was charmed by this incredibly contrasting scene.

Excuse me, is this delicate girl, who is squatting there right now, wiping each of her toes until they are spotless with wet wipes, then putting on her shoes and tying the shoelaces into cute butterflies, really a berserk female warrior who can kill a huge monster with a single strike?

"Eri-san, you're even cuter than I imagined~" Phil couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

"Cute?" The female mage's lips twitched, forcing a smile. "She is indeed quite cute."

The adventurers looked at each other in disbelief, all impressed by Erii's absolute strength.

They glanced at Frillie and her apprentice again, thinking to themselves that from now on they must never underestimate any beautiful girl.

rustling~

Particles from the disintegration of monster corpses floated in the air.

"Good heavens, this maze has finally been completely conquered!"

Grandpa, your wish has come true!

"Let's go see what good stuff they have!"

"We're just looking, esteemed mages, those are all yours~"

Everyone was overjoyed, almost saying they wanted a sip of soup.

Frilian didn't care about that; she only cared about whether there were rare spellbooks or strange and unusual magic.

Philon didn't care about worldly things; he only needed enough money for the rest of the journey.

So, after Erii joined them, the group headed towards the Golden Mountain together.

Passing by the still-partially dissipated corpse of the demon bull, Frilian glanced at it subconsciously, then her eyes narrowed instantly. "Wait, something's not right."

laugh!

Almost as soon as he spoke, a beam of dark magical light shot out from the severed neck.

hum!

Just as it was about to pierce the female mage's head, Philon activated his defensive magic at zero frames, blocking it.

The female magician, who nearly fell, turned pale and, supported by her companions, said "thank you" with lingering shock.

"What's going on?"

"Not quite dead yet?"

Suddenly caught off guard, everyone hurriedly moved away, their relaxed vigilance rising again as they stared intently at the demon bull's corpse.

"Hmm?" Erii noticed something amiss. "It didn't disappear."

As she said, the head of the Mountain Barbarian Bull had completely disappeared, but its body was completely intact, showing no signs of decay.

"The magic within it is still fluctuating, and it is expanding rapidly." Philon raised his wand and aimed it.

Frillie remained silent, observing with curiosity.

Erii's eyes lit up, her excitement evident.

She was all too familiar with this situation. When the boss was killed, not only did it not drop any equipment, but a thrilling background music started playing!
