Tōga's respect for Alisa was profound as he expressed his appreciation for her humble yet powerful demeanor. "You’re so humble to be so strong. I like it!
" he exclaimed with genuine enthusiasm. Alisa, a Guild Master renowned not only for her formidable abilities but also for her graceful leadership, responded in kind with words that carried the weight of her experience and the gentleness of her spirit. It was a rare privilege to share moments like these with someone of such stature—her striking raven hair and captivating presence were but veils over the immense, almost divine power that simmered within her. Tōga, ever the dragon slayer, was eager to see this power in action, already anticipating the thrill of a future spar.
However, the moment of camaraderie was fleeting as the reality of their surroundings clawed back into focus. Tōga had let his Dragon Force subside but remained vigilant. As Knuckles and Bird took the lead, a palpable sense of unease lingered in the air—this Void Dungeon had not yet unveiled all its secrets. The ominous atmosphere suggested that they were on the brink of encountering a challenge greater than any they had faced so far.
"
Yep. That would do it," Tōga muttered, his voice tinged with a mix of resignation and anticipation as he halted in his tracks. The glacial cavern ahead unfolded into a vast expanse, and there, looming ominously, was a massive ice golem. It dwarfed the ones they had previously shattered, a towering sentinel guarding what they hoped would be the route to their mission's end. Tōga’s pulse quickened with the prospect of battle; the thrill of the fight was an irresistible call.
Before Tōga could make his move, Knuckles, with his characteristic impetuosity, launched himself at the golem. Ice shards that jutted from the creature met his assault head-on. Not to be outdone, Alisa’s presence grew even more formidable as her mana surged, her raven locks transforming into a cascade of ice-white strands—a startling revelation to Tōga. "
She’s a Transcender too?" he wondered aloud, his eyes widening as he observed her mana envelop her like a cloak of visible force. With a warrior's grace, she engaged the golem, her weapons and crystal magic creating openings for her companions to exploit.
Seizing the moment, Tōga shouted, "
My turn!" and charged forward, Kimetsu drawn and his spirit alight with determination. He aimed for the heart of the golem, his muscles tensed for impact. Yet, the battlefield held one more trick; an ice construct emerged abruptly from the golem's side, colliding with Tōga mid-charge. The force was immense, sending him hurtling through the air and crashing against the cavern wall with a resonating thud.
As Tōga's body slammed into the frozen barrier, the impact reverberated throughout the cave with a violence that shook its very foundations. Ice that had clung to the ceiling for ages was dislodged by the tremor, cascading down upon him in a chilling avalanche. The shards piled over him, forming a cold, sharp blanket that threatened to entomb him beneath its weight.
. . . . .
"That hurt…" Tōga muttered, his voice a low growl under the crushing ice. But within moments, heat began to seep through the cracks and crevices of his icy prison. With a sudden burst, flames erupted, radiating from Tōga's form with such intensity that the ice melted away, leaving puddles swirling at his feet. Rising to his full stature, the dragon slayer's eyes blazed with enthusiasm and his Kimetsu blade glowed brightly, its edge blazing with the heat of a thousand suns.
"It’s my turn!" Tōga declared, his voice echoing through the cavern with a powerful resolve. Gripping the hilt of his fiery weapon, he swung it in a wide arc. A brilliant wave of fire unfurled from the blade, morphing into the majestic, ethereal form of a hollow dragon. The spell surged forward, a controlled blaze that snaked its way around his allies with precision, ensuring their safety while homing in on its intended target.
The draconic flames, vibrant and wrathful, swooped towards the golem. The heat was intense, the light blinding, as the fire enveloped the creature, wrapping around it in a fierce embrace. The golem, caught in the fiery grasp of Tōga's spell, seemed to roar in silent agony as the flames swallowed it whole, the heat so severe that the air around it shimmered with distortion.
