I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 61

Chapter 61 Chapter 54 Frost Ice Dragon, First Appearance (Part 2)
The blazing fireball and the frost ice dragon’s breath collided fiercely, scarlet and ice blue lights spreading rapidly, pale water vapor evaporated by the high temperature swept by the strong wind.
Verafia extended her slender fingers to smooth her soft, fluttered hair, her flawless, exquisite jade-white little face reflecting the beautiful luster of the interchanging flames and ice.
To the dragon’s surprise, having just released a magic, her movements were not slow at all as she raised her staff again and attacked the angry frost blue dragon.
“Flame Expansion!”
With the girl’s soft voice came violent magical fluctuations. The dragon frantically vibrated its membranous wings and pulled its body up, but in the next moment, the scorching flames that rushed in fiercely struck its body.
The crystal-clear, beautiful, yet incredibly strong scales, under the attack of the flames, had several pieces explosively shattered, revealing gold and red seeping from the gaps, but faintly carrying a trace of frost blue dragon blood.
Although such a small wound was nothing to the noble and powerful dragon, to be injured by the magic of a mere gold-ranked insignificant human, even feeling a trace of pain, made the frost blue dragon completely enraged!
“Roar!”
The dragon spewed frost ice dragon’s breath, raising its head and roaring, the powerful sound wave directly broke the surrounding few remaining large trees, its rushing dragon body almost broke the sound barrier, a ferocious dragon claw carrying immense kinetic energy descended from the sky!
The sharp dragon claw seemed to cut through space, and in just a blink of an eye, it swung in front of the girl who had dodged the dragon’s breath, the giant waves of wind were torn apart, bursting with sonic booms!
However, facing the dragon claw which seemed like it would tear her to shreds the next moment, Verafia showed no panic at all. The girl placed the staff in her hand forward and chanted.
“Flame Barrier!”
Instantly, a blazing wall of fire rose from the ground, blocking in front of the girl; the immense kinetic energy carried by the sharp frost blue dragon claw also arrived in an instant and poured out directly!
The urgently released blazing shield’s light flickered drastically, shattered flames condensed into frost, splashing everywhere, and in just a moment, it was completely torn apart by the sharp blue frost dragon claw.
However, during this time, Verafia had already raised her staff again, and intense magical fluctuations swirled on the blazing long staff, her spell incantation ready.
Although the magic power intensity was still only that of a fourth-tier gold rank, the level of magic constructed by the immense magical fluctuations on the staff had clearly broken through the gold rank limit, reaching the platinum fifth tier, which was above extraordinary.
In Verafia’s raised dazzling gold eyes, golden flames flowed, the sound of wind torn by the dragon’s sharp claws touched her swaying hair, and the girl suddenly tilted her staff.
“Blazing flames of deep crimson, born from the world of flames! Right hand of the Blazing Giant!”
The moment the voice fell, the burning flames behind the girl rapidly materialized, and a giant burning with fierce flames stood behind her, raising its arm and striking towards the enraged dragon claw carrying immense power!
In the next moment, the dragon’s giant claw tore towards the flame giant, the flame giant’s arm, destroyed in an instant, exploded with terrifying flames, forcefully shaking and pushing the dragon’s claw away.
“Boom!”
The colors in mid-air instantly shattered, the dragon’s heavy claw slammed into the ground, tearing out deep ravines.
The immense impact made Verafia stagger back a few steps, the girl forcefully turned her wrist to hold her staff horizontally to stop her figure.
“Cough, cough, so violent… not like a lady! As a dragon, can’t you learn from this young lady?”
The girl’s small chest under her dress rose and fell slightly, she couldn’t help but chide. The expression on Verafia’s exquisite jade face became slightly solemn, and her raised dazzling gold eyes looked at the charging frost blue dragon.
“Roar!”
The frost ice dragon roared in anger, its vibrating wings cut through the surging flames in mid-air, and with a diving posture, it swung its dragon head towards the human girl on the ground and sprayed the most extremely cold frost ice dragon’s breath.
Verafia neither dodged nor evaded, and suddenly raised her arm. On the top of her staff, scarlet flame light condensed into a blazing rainbow-colored long sword, and she slashed towards the cold dragon’s breath in front of her.
“Sword of Firelight, Divide!”
Scarlet bright light moved, the frost ice dragon’s breath that sprayed in front of the girl was instantly split into two. Between the red and blue colors, the two diametrically opposed powers of scorching heat and extreme cold collided, and at every point of contact, fierce battles erupted.
Rolling frost cold swept with flames, ice crystals condensed in the air, but were instantly melted by the flames.
The girl’s wrist holding the sword hilt trembled slightly, she gritted her silver teeth, raised her hand, and pulled out the sword edge again. The magnificent blazing sword light almost swept the sky. The blue frost dragon shook its head and spewed its breath, and the giant wave-like impact of deep cold and scorching interleaved instantly submerged the thunderous roaring explosions.
“Hoo… this dragon is quite strong. It seems this way won’t be enough to deal with you.”
Verafia took several steps back, waved her sword from behind to cut off the frost ice dragon’s breath that rushed towards her, the light of fierce flames reflected in the frost blue surrounding the deep enclosure.
A few wisps of dragon’s breath that were splashed, having exhausted their power, still carried a trace of frost cold, like a cool breeze, gently touching Verafia’s flawless tender face.
The girl took a slight breath, raised her eyes, and looked at the dragon’s frost blue vertical pupils, her golden eyes as if flowing with brilliant flames.
——
The frost ice dragon’s mood was very irritable.
It had thought that punishing the two insignificant humans, whose strength was at most gold, would be incredibly easy, but it never expected that the delicate girl in front of it, who looked like she could be eaten in one bite, was actually so powerful, and her released spells could even pose some threat to it.
Although the claw attack, rushing, and dragon’s breath just now were not its most powerful means, the dragon did not hold back.
According to its estimation, this series of attacks was enough to make a platinum-ranked human completely regret their actions, but the currently gold-ranked human girl easily blocked it by waving her staff.
Even, in just a few breaths of time, this girl had released several magic spells of considerable power, yet her aura hadn’t changed much.
This made the dragon feel incredibly perplexed, had human magic developed to this extent?
The long sword formed by fire instantly divided the fierce frost dragon’s breath. Suddenly, the dragon saw the girl under the dragon’s breath gently raise her eyes.
The beautiful and brilliant dazzling gold color flowed like golden flames, calm and gentle.
Even by the dragon clan’s aesthetic standards, these were a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, but for some reason, the frost ice dragon felt an instinctive sense of fear.
It seemed that this insignificant human stood high in the clouds, looking down with contempt at the noble Frost Dragon Ophi.
The inexplicable fear, and the anger born from humiliation, made the blue frost dragon raise its head and roar in anger.
The frost breath and the flame sword formed by magic suddenly exploded, the sweeping white frost storm almost covered the entire ground, and the resulting shockwave directly blew the girl several meters away.
