The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Agetha fought the Lava Dragon head on with her large great sword. The other transcendental warriors did try to help them but were unable to as the heat emitting from the dragons body was too much for them to bear.

Normally these transcendental powerhouses were very much capable of bathing in lava without feeling anything from that but probably because the dragon was stronger than them, they had no resistance against the lava coming out from its body.

Even for Agetha with her peek green grade power level, prolonged contact with this Lava could be dangerous. The only reason why she was still able to fight this dragon without feeling that was because of her unique armour that gave her resistance against all manner of things including heat.

But the amount of damage she dealt to the dragon with each hit was not a lot. That was because the lava dragon had very high resistance against physical damage. Agetha obviously had her powerful Orange Fire chromatic affinity but it was even more useless as this dragon was almost immune to the fire element and even her chromatic fire element was barely able to deal any damage to it.

But still she continued to hit this dragon again and again. If hitting it once was not enough she decided to hit it hundreds if not thousands of times. Her hits were definitely dealing damage to it no matter how minor and that was all she needed to have the confidence to defeat this mighty foe.

She was targeting the part where the long neck of the lava dragon met the rest of the body. That part of exactly the weak spot for the dragon. Obviously the dragon was not dumb enough to have its weak point exposed so it was using a very powerful fire barrier to defend that place and Agetha was trying it bring that exact barrier down. After that it would not be too hard to badly injured this dragon.

Even though she was unable to use her fire magic to harm the dragon in any way, it was not like her fire magic was completely useless. She was using a fire magic spell called "Overflowing Flame" to boost her strength and attack power. Alongside that her armour was also providing her with a power boost and that was the reason how she was able to punch such a big dragon away.

Another thing that was on her side was the fact that this Lava dragon was somewhat slow for its own rank. It was obviously fast enough for a weaker powerhouse but for Agetha whose power level was the same as the dragon, she was able to easily react to all the attacks it made.

Obviously it did not mean that her life was not in danger when facing this dragon. The power behind each one of its attacks was extremely scary. Even if one hit was not enough to kill her outright, it would definitely injure her badly. So she had to always be on a high alert to perfectly dodge all the attacks made by the dragon.

But still she was able to make decent progress in breaking down the barrier that was protecting the weak point of the dragon. One of the main reasons behind that was the support that she received from all the other powerhouses present there.

Even though they were unable to fight the Lava Dragon from the front because of the heat, they still did their best to help her out from the distance by throwing various things and by using their long range skills. Just like that all of them were able to bring the mighty Lava dragon down with an impressive team work.

When the flame barrier was finally down, Agetha went into overcharged mode. This mode allowed her to gather more power than what her body was capable of holding. This was a destructive move just like Rien's but as she only stayed in this form for just a moment, she was able to get rid of most of the dangers and she only used them in perfect opportune moments.

That was the reason why the Lava Dragon was also taken by surprise when Agetha suddenly became stronger and faster. So it was not able to defend against the monster at all and its long neck was separated from its body. The Lava Dragon was finally dead.

Everyone started to celebrate this great victory and in this mayhem none of the combatants noticed a hidden figure running away from the battlefield who was hiding all this time among the weaker adventurers.

But before he was able to create some distance between him and the legendary powerhouses to use his teleportation item to run away, suddenly black smoke covered him from head to toe and he immediately lost consciousness.

Even though none of the legendary individuals including Agetha noticed him, he was unable to hide himself from Tasha and he was immediately caught by her for interrogation. She had also analysed the teleportation location of the item he was about to use and so she even had a general idea about his true identity and the organisation behind him.

...

After Agetha was told that she had missed the presence of this man, she was a bit embarrassed for not being able to do a perfect job. Normally she would not have made such a mistake but this time it was inevitable.

The dragon she was facing was truly powerful and she was forced to give it all her attention when fighting it. And on the other hand this man was truly very good at his job and also the support of a powerful treasure that was helping him. And he was not really targeting Agetha and was just watching over the whole situation from the perspective of a bystander which a lot more people were also doing.

That was why it was almost impossible for Agetha to find this spy out in the heat of the battle.

...

The spy was handed over Utrena for interrogation and she also asked Agetha's and Tasha's help of this matter. As they were very experienced with interrogation, they would be able to gather more information from this person.

But it did not turn out to be as useful as they expected it to be. This spy basically did not have any idea for whom he was working. He was trained till his childhood in an orphanage to blindly follow any orders given to him and to not have extra curiosity than what was needed. So he had been working as a spy all his life without even knowing who his superior was.

In this case he had a very simple duty to just witness the outcome of the situation and to speak about it to another one time use magic item. He did not even have any idea who was getting that message from him. This was truly a very strict and well built organisation that they were dealing with.

With these problems in mind, the grand event came to a somewhat successful end.
