The dragon's harem

The dragon hunters rushed away from Arad, trying to regroup back with the warrior. He's their party's tank, and without him, Arad could one-shot any of them.

"Take her away!" The swordsman shouted as he turned to face Arad, "I will hold him here!" He lifted his sword up, swinging it down at Arad's head the moment he got in range.

CLACK! The blade bounced off Arad's head, barely scratching his hide.

AWOO! Arad swung his claws at the swordsman without wasting any time.

The swordsman gasped, taking a step back and swinging his sword to block. Sparks flew everywhere, ^This monster, He's fast.^

The moment Arad noticed his strikes getting deflected, he lunged back and took a deep breath, focusing on how to direct his power.

"Leave me and go fight him!" Ann shouted, smacking her fist on the ranger's back.

"Shut up, shitty Ann! He's smart, he would ignore us and attack you." The ranger replied. Looking back to see the swordsman struggling to keep up, Arad's speed and aggression kept rising without a limit.

BAM! Arad launched forward, ramming the swordsman and rushing toward the ranger and Ann with a bite.

BAM! CLANG! The warrior managed to get back in time, barely blocking Arad's strike with his shield. "We're together, let her stay in the backlines,"

"You're finally here," The ranger smiled, throwing Ann away and pulling two daggers.

SWOSH! The swordsman rushed from the back, lunging at Arad's tail, spinning all the way from the tip of the tail to Arad's head, slashing like a madman.

Countless strikes rained down on Arad. The ranger swung his daggers at Arad's face, aiming at his eyes. The swordsman went after the wings and the warrior tried to smash Arad's knees to drop him down.

"Don't give him a chance to fight back!" Ann shouted from the back.

"Run away! Bitch!" The ranger shouted at her.

"Don't stand there like an idiot!" The warrior growled, waving his sword at her.

"Get the hell out! One wrong move and he'll jump at you."

AWOOOOOOOOOOOO! Arad screamed, his howl so loud it stunned the hunters who stood so close. He then lifted his claws up and smacked them down, blasting the ground.

The hunters flew away from the shockwave and debris, barely dodging the massive hit.

"How aggressive can you be?" The ranger growled, "You draconic blood wolf,"

BAM! The warrior rushed in, bashing Arad with his shield, "Take her as far as you could."

The ranger growled as he picked Ann and ran away, "We can't fight with you close by," He grunted at her, "You're a weak point, protecting you is making us more vulnerable than a mug of free beer on a tavern counter,"

"Shut up! I'm the one holding his draconic and vampiric power in check, at least, deal with one." She glared at him.

"I'm saying we can't do it with you around. He would kill you and release your magic." The ranger growled, "Can't you find a way to teleport away, sacrificing an arm or something? You mages always pull shit like that out of your ass."

"I'm not Merlin," She growled at him, "I might have her power, but that doesn't mean I can do anything she could."

"You're such a pain," The ranger growled.

"How much can…Dodge!" She screamed her lungs out in his ear, and he jumped to the side, only losing an arm as something flew by.

"The fuck was that!" The ranger looked forward, seeing three massive grey claws stuck on the ground.

He slowly turned back, seeing Arad's claws instantly growing back. "The fucker can throw them?"

AWOOOOOOOOO! Arad howled, leaping from one hunter to another, slashing at them. When they tried to get away, he threw his claws at them mid-strike.

CLANG! The warrior lost his arm and shield, and Arad didn't waste a second and swallowed the shield.

"Fuck it all," Ann growled, clapping her hands, "This won't work!"

ZON! The whole labyrinth disappeared.

"You bitch!" The ranger screamed as he disappeared alongside the hunters.

"Begone!" She glared at Arad, sealing his wyrmwolf powers as well.

Arad screamed, his body shifting back into his humanoid form. Thud! He fell to the ground and Ann stared at him, panting.

"You bastard! How the hell do I need more than 90% of Merlin's power to keep you down." She growled, "And Fuck you!" [Paralyze] "Stay down! No human power, no dragon, and other bullshit."

She started scratching her head, "This bastard is a problem," She growled, "How much I have left? Nine? Eight percent of Merlin's power? I'm as vulnerable as a rabbit."

She looked around, someone might come to help now that the labyrinth disappeared. The one who worried her more was the barbarian Nina.

"That barbarian might be coming," She looked around, "Or this bastard's wives he's been yapping about with the succubus."

[Teleport]

She cast a spell, teleporting, and appeared only a meter away from where she was.

"What?" She gasped, "Miscast? Damn it," [Teleport]

She returned where she started, the magic wasn't working right.

"Dancing in the night," Arad started singing and Ann turned toward him, terrified. He should be paralyzed, unable to even speak.

"A dragon upon the twilight sky," He pushed his torso up with his hands.

"You! Stay down!" She cried.

"One dream, that only came." Arad stood, staring at her with glowing pink eyes. His hands slowly approached each other.

"You're using Merlin's power, so what if I gave him mine?" He said with a smile. Doma immediately gave Arad access to her power while she handled any background spells or inscriptions that he might need.

"Stop it!" Ann pointed her hands at him, charging a massive fireball.

[Curse Expansion: Medusa's Pitfall]

A massive hole appeared beneath them as they both fell down.

Ann looked, seeing the floor filled with thousands of writhing venomous snakes, vipers, and cobras. Let alone their poison, their eyes dripped with the petrification curse.

CRACK! Arad grabbed Ann by the neck, "Did you hear me before?" He growled, "Give Merlin and Amber back,"

CRACK! With one punch to the face, he sent her racing toward the snakes.
