Desert area.

1 week after split up.

"Iris...please rest,you already up around 4 days!!"(Alice)

"It's fine,This wasn't my limit ,I still could look for the dragon."(Iris)

"Alice,Stop it. If you want to rest then felt free to do so,we won't blame you.."(Jessica)

"But ,but her eyes already so red..at this rate she would die.."(Alice)

To be honest not just Iris,even Jessica also very tired as she was kept fighting days and night.They kept forcing themselves.At this rate they would died before they found the dragon.Yet what she could do?She was useles when it truly matters she was useless..as she thought that Iris who was standing suddenly nearly fall on ground...but she quickly regain her balance...

"Iris!!Please stop it!!Your body couldn't hold it anymore!!!"(Alice)

"I still could kept going!!!!There was no need to stop!!"(Iris)

As she said that she kept searching with her mana...even thought her mana use the wind itself to feel but the mana usage also huge,not to mention the larger area means more mana was consumed. Iris mana was massive if compared to others and it need a month for her to emptying her resources in theory. But it put huge burden on herself as it need a lot of concetration to maintain searching..

".....Ugh.."(Jessica)

Jessica also fall on her knees,unlike Iris . Jessica was fighting while maintaning her barrier. THe monster around here weren't that strong..but they come in huge number and constantly every hour. Even thought with Alice support it,she could easily deal with it but it take a lot of stamina to kept fighting and guarding iris and Alice at sometime..Suddenly her barrier dissipated.....Iris sense was heightened and immediately cancel her searching

"Jessica!!!!"(Iris and Alice)

"Sorry,Looks like this was my limit ."(Jessica)

"It's okay,just rest.."(Alice)

"I found a cave..let's retreat to the underground cave for time being.."(Iris)

They immediately retreated toward the cave,by the time they arrived at cave...Iris also passed out as she was too tired both physically and mentally. Alice at this time panicked but she immediately calm herself down...

"No I couldn't be protected anymore,I didn't want to be left alone again!!"(Alice)

Alice then take out a knife out of her bag...even thought her hand was shaking..but she did her best to hold it in. She then go outside and met with some kind of wolf type of monster..

"I wouldn't let you hurt my friend!!"(Alice)

At the same time

Volcano area

Riese was standing in front of bunch of magma golems and was cornered. Unlike others ,volcano area was lot smaller compared to other areas. But the numbers of monsters and it's climate also the worst.It also had time limit for anyone who entered it. As every 3 days volcano would erupt and kill any living thing inside of it.

"I didn't had time to play with you, golems!!!"(Riese)

As Riese said that she flicked her finger and a bunch of tiny fire was created around her. Then one by one moved toward golem ,once it hit the magma golem ,the magma golem immediately melted. At the same time riese go deeper inside the vocano. This already her third tries and she still couldn't defeat flame dragon within time limit.Right now he was exploring the volcano.

"Another failed run?damn it."(Riese)

Riese said that as she looked at wall in front of her.She then take out some map and then begin to change it. It was map that she draw by herself.She then kept it aside and then begin to do another round of explore.

"I must be faster..faster!!!"(Riese)

Rain forest.

An area where it was raining for 10 hours a day,the area where the forest itself was located inside the flood itself.The dragon was slept inside the deepest part of the forest and also the longest and biggest dragon continent,it boast the durability and the greatest healing ability among other monster.This dragon was the hardest to kill,not because its strength but because it's durability and healing ability. It also stay underwater 24 hour and would run if it was wounded..As the water element was only belong to shiroyuki only she could battled the dragon as it stay underwater. Maybe ruby could killed by a single attack,but dragon was intelligent creature once it sense people who were stronger than they were ,it would run and hide itself..because of that only shiroyuki able to deal with it.

"My attack...It was too weak..."(Shiroyuki)

Shiroyuki said to herself as she resurfaced but then take a deep breath and enter the flood again..There was still 3 weeks..there was still enough time.

"I must kill it ..if not then there was no future."(Shiroyuki)

WInd dragon site.

"Not enough!!!Your strength was not enough at all!!!You couldn't defeat wind dragon!!!You might better give it up while you could!!!!!"(Emerald)

Emerald said that as he looked at them,compared to others dragon maybe was the simplest but it was also the hardest.The reason why it was the simplest was because the dragon itself was simple to found and you could fight it again and again. but the reason why it was the hardest because the dragon itself was the strongest and the smartest dragon among the other dragon.Not to mention they fight them at air which need corresponding skill to fight. Fighting in the air and fighting the ground..It was easy to see which was more harder...

"Grandpa,we still could fight!!!We wouldn't give up!!"(Luna)

"There was no need to worry,we will kept fighting until we won!!"(Sakura)

"I already understand,next time I wouldn't be burden anymore!!"(Lisa)

"...Fine..rest for a hour then we would resume our training."(Emerald)

Emerald bit his lips as he underestimated the difficulty of this mission..regardless of that he would see throught this until the end..

"That's why forvish please kept fighting!!"(Emerald)

3 weeks left.
