《Reincarnated as the companion of a God》Chapter 37: Challenge!
Advertisement
I quickly created a wall of ice in front of me to stop the great ball of fire coming towards me, how ingenuous I was to hope that this would stop it, the difference in power was too high to give me time to form a wall strong enough to stop it.
It may not look like it but the size of the fireball was reduced, as a last attempt I tried to use my ice breath to stop it but without much hope.
I activated my ability to increase my speed, on the spot my body compressed a bit, with this burst of speed I was able to take some distance but this damn thing kept following me.
While I was trying to get away I kept cursing myself internally for accepting this damn Ignar's challenge, clearly I was going to get beaten up, I a dragon with a few months how could I defeat that thing.
-1 day earlier
[Ignar]: "Well, I'm more comfortable that way, so let's get started"
[Ignar]: "Do you have anything to say about all this Kaiba?"
I didn't expect that question from Ignar so suddenly, plus he was very serious and I honestly don't know what he wants to know now.
[Kaiba]: "What should I say?"
[Ignar]: "Well, it's obvious, but it seems that we will have to refresh your memory."
[Ignar]: "First you are hiding some kind of power that you do not want to teach for some reason but if you do not tell us we cannot help you in this case either, on the other hand the growth of your brothers and your own is abnormal compared to other hatchlings that are one month old, usually they do not reach the young stage until the year or two years, besides your brothers told certain things like once you lost control and look where kilometers of an island covered with a strange material was reported a few weeks ago and coincide with what the guards who accompanied you, said. "
[Kaiba]: "..."
[Ignar]: "So you want to say something about it, I think the evidence should make you talk, right?"
[Kaiba]: "Yes, it was me, but it wasn't for pleasure that I made that mess, although now that I think about it I could go and clean it up.Well I don't want to deviate from the subject, if I can generate some kind of metal and I kept it a secret because I had my reasons for doing so, although I was forced to use it in some situations because of that you discovered it."

[Kaiba]: "What do you plan to do now that you know this."
Ignar]: "Nothing has changed, we brought you here and trained you as the Royals are strange to see, even more now that one of the king's sons has disappeared, so now the vigilance over you is going to increase, although the fact that you have that unique element never seen here before gives you a plus and if we would like to keep it a secret for now we don't want to produce more commotion than we have".
[Kaiba]: "So if I may ask, what happened to the missing royal?"
[Ignar]: "We just don't know. He was missing for a while and that has made the king nervous, from my point of view I'm sure he got into some trouble he couldn't handle, I guess that's what makes you think you're the king of the world."
[Kaiba]: "So that's why they want to stop me from leaving here... But I can't stay still Ignar, I need to go out and look for my father I think he's in this area and I don't have much time to find him."
Ignar: "Well I told you, if you want to get out of here you'll have to go through me before you do that."
[Kaiba]: "Huh?"
[Ignar]: "A little duel if you manage to defeat him I'll let you go, I can't be behind you all the time to avoid this kind of trouble and the guards don't seem to be enough to keep you out of trouble."
[Kaiba]: "I will do it, I have no time to lose."
Ignar]: "When you are fully recovered I will take you with me and don't even think of running away or I will not restrain myself and leave you in bed for another month".
I had a fright when Ignar said this, but it quickly passed. I was intimidated only when he looked at me and it seemed to unleash some of his power in the room, or so I think.
[Ignar]: "This afternoon I will come back, if you feel well we can start today and I will teach you a lesson about this world in passing.
Ignar left the room, when I noticed a small detail that I didn't think about at the time, I didn't look at his status and I agreed to do this, although I could always back out but, my power won't increase much more if I can't get out of here beyond the small changes in statistics that I get when I train, but it has no point of comparison when I go up levels or evolve.

That morning I started to go over some plans that could work maybe? I didn't know that I had ever seen Ignar fight seriously and in training I never exchanged blows with him.

[Kaiba]: "I'm already better than I was yesterday, but mana exhaustion is a problem, I'm practically halfway through my capacity in that respect, but even so I don't think I'll have any problem with that, the biggest problem will be that Ignar is stronger than me in everything, I doubt that a dragon with who knows how many years I can outplay him in a month of life.
I spent the morning thinking about how to face all this with Ignar's fight, certainly I want to accomplish those missions as soon as possible better, although the one that worries me more. I still don't know who is following me and knows about my element so they will come prepared.
Ignar entered the room, asked the dragonborn who was here to leave again, again we were left alone.
[Kaiba]: "I guess you know what I want today, no, you've already seen that I'm much better and I want to stretch a bit so why don't we move things forward a bit and do the duel today if possible.
If I'm right, Ignar should hold back a little longer if he doesn't know for sure how I am or I hope so.
[Ignar]: "Are you sure? You want to be here for another week so badly.
[Kaiba]: "Let's say I have confidence in my abilities, but please be as private as possible, if what you told me was true only a few people know my peculiarity and I would like not to expose it."
[Ignar]: "Whatever, but don't say later that I Didn't warn you.

[Ignore]: "Whatever, but don't let it be said that I warned you. At the moment I deem appropriate I will end the fight, that is the only rule I will set, apart from not killing the rival clearly".
[Kaiba]: "All right."
[Ignar]: "Well, I'll see you in a while, I'll let you go out and see your brothers before I go."
go out and see your siblings before I go."
