This last month inside the divine realm I've been teaching and helping Benladann how to use her newly awakened draconic capabilities. As she evolved and raised her Mana Core Rank, she ended evolving, and the bloodline of dragons she got by drinking my blood further enhanced itself with her evolutions. She had already learned the power to cover most of her body with incredibly hard silvery blue scales, but she also quickly learned how to turn her nails into sharp black draconic claws, and even her teeth can turn into dragon fangs. Her horns change shape and turn more draconic when she transforms as well and well, she can now grow a long scaled tail as well as wings!
I had some time ago speculated she would get them, but it was a real shocker when it actually happened and two large wings just came out of her back when I saw two cuts suddenly appear in there… and then they just popped into existence. It was impressive, and it slightly reminded me of Benladra when she hides her wings, there is like a little pouch inside their backs that somehow can fit the wings inside.
"Amazing, Benladann! You're getting better at flying already." I said. "Let's fly for a while, I want you to follow me with your full speed, you have to get used to flap your wings."
I could use Wind Magic to cheat my flight and put no effort whatsoever, but Benladann really wanted to learn how to fly on her own, saying that "there might be times that you won't be able to help me, in such times, I want to pull my own weight", it was always quite moving when she said that, and I felt the motivation to aid her and teach her.
Both of us then began to fly across the skies, Benladann had to slowly adapt herself to this flight and gain the enough stamina and vitality needed for such a feat to be constantly happening. Her flight must be kept continuously, and due to her big weight as an ice giant, it is a hard thing to do without practice.
"Oof… Hahh…" She sighed while gritting her teeth.
"If you infuse Mana into your wings slowly, they'll get less tired, try doing that." I said while flying ahead of her.
"O-Okay… I am getting better at this anyways!"
Benladann infused hers wings with a lot of mana, making them more flexible and even bigger, this helped her fly more easily and better, and allowed her to have an easier time. She was flying around freely and slightly tiredly, but happy nonetheless.
Benladann quickly flapped her wings and then began to hover in midair by flapping them constantly at a fast speed, keeping herself in midair in this way was very exhausting, but she had the stamina to do so.
"Well done… Now let's spar in midair!" I said with a smile.
"Eh? Spar?!" She asked.
"Come on, I won't do much, attack me with your draconic abilities…!" I said, inviting my wife to attack me.
"Alright… if you're so confident…!" Said Benladann, as she smiled slightly maliciously.
She flapped her wings once, unleashing a storm of winds from behind her as she stormed me with constant attacks, a barrage of kicks and claw attacks started to rain over me. I blocked a few with my arms but received some with my bare body, naturally I wasn't even being damaged by her hits, they were missing enough divine power to hurt me.
Nonetheless, they were still rather intense and amazingly strong. I was surprised by her growth and the draconic blood running through her veins might also be the key for her to grow even stronger beyond her limits… leaving aside her Chaos powers, unique to her which can even defy the world.
Benladann opened her jaws, unleashing an explosive breath attack of Chaos element! It was surprising, as she was perhaps the only one capable of combining dragon powers and chaos as good as her.
I felt my skin burning by her powerful breath attack, as when she finished, I found my entire body charred. Although the damage was superficial, I still looked rather ugly after such a strong attack, my skin was burning but it only tickled for me.
"D-Drake! Are you okay?! D-Did I overdid it?! let me heal you!" Benladann flew to my side concerned, as my wounds suddenly healed themselves naturally, my hair grew from my charred bald head and I looked as good as new.
"Don't worry, I am alright now." I said. "I got Immortal Body, remember? But your attack was indeed amazing! Chaos element can even damage gods such as me due to its ability to distort element and even matter… If you fuse it with the explosive power of a dragon breath, you might even have a chance against enemy gods, if we ever fight them."
"T-This is…well, if you say so… But still, you alright? I… Sorry for hurting you." She said.
"Haha, you're way too gentle for a warrioress, don't worry about me, I bathed in divine flames, it wasn't much what you did, but I really want you to further develop that attack." I said.
"Hmm… Alright, you're a bit carefree nowadays after becoming a god…" Said Benladann. "Sometimes it doesn't even feel like its you by how lightly you take things!"
"A-Ah… Well… Sorry about that." I sighed. "I am still adapting…"
"No, don't be sorry! Now you're going back to how you were before… But how about you slowly try to get a middle ground between both of your natures?" Wondered Benladann.
"That's easy to say…" I sighed.
"Hahaha! Anyways, I guess if you're so alright, let's spar some more… Let me show you some more of my secret techniques!"
Benladann's scales suddenly turned black and purple, as her wings, tail, and horns also turned of this color… She had infused her Chaos Attribute Soul Powers into her Draconic Powers, enhancing her power greatly!
And like that, we ended sparring for way longer than anticipated.
