I guess it's time for me to show off…
I lightly smirked before shouting, "[Draconic Flame Magic]!"
A massive trail of green flames erupted from my hands, barreling towards the soft pale flesh within the ear, and upon colliding…
BOOOOOOM
There was not a single scratch mark, burn, tear, anything…
"Oh… uhhhh… should I try out the sword then?" I muttered, squeezing my hand and then relaxing it, allowing the beautiful sword to dance in my hand.
I began to recall all of my training and took a deep stance, garnering the attention of everybody around me.
The sword glowed a dim-golden color as it absorbed so much of my mana that it felt as if my mana veins were being torn out of my body.
It hurt. It hurt so excruciatingly bad that I the only thing I could do was grit my teeth and proceeded.
SHING…
The loud sound of metal tearing through the air echoed across the ear canal, and for a moment, it looked as if nothing had happened, but upon taking closer inspection, you saw the cut I had made rapidly expanding.
The ear soon opened up to the beating sun, causing the jaws of everybody around me to hang agape.
In an instant, I had torn a massive hole in the sand worm's head, causing it to fall down rapidly, but then catch itself with insanely strong abdominal muscles.
"You freak of nature…." I muttered, looking up at the flesh, which had now been tainted with black flames.
They consumed the flesh, bones, and organs of this worm until the monster finally realized what had been happening and then activated some skill.
I don't know what skill it was, but its regeneration had increased tenfold, fighting back against the all-consuming black flames.
And to my surprise, it actually won, though the ear canal had a massive scar from where I cut it.
The menacing and almost predatory eyes of the people around me continued to scrape against my skin.
My mana was so low that I almost took a knee, displaying just a moment of weakness that was more than enough confirmation for these goddamn assholes to charge after me.
"GET THAT SWORD! WE COULD BECOME RICH IF WE SELL THAT THING!"
"SCREW GETTING RICH! WE COULD BECOME SO POWERFUL THAT THEY MIGHT AS WELL RANK US S-RANK!"
Stupid cries erupted through the fleshy canal we were in, but just before somebody reached towards me and I shielded the sword with my own hands, a woman stepped in front of me.
Her clothes were revealing, and her smile was so wide you'd think she had just heard the best piece of news.
"Nice sword you got there," Auntie Clio muttered, taking the dull sword of a random adventurer and then touching him on the shoulder. "[Dehydration],"
He immediately disintegrated into a lifeless, dry husk as all the moisture in his body gathered in his head and then exploded, sending fleshy bits flying everywhere.
"If anybody dares to touch this girl, I swear on everything that I own… I'll fucking kill you,"
The words would have been more threatening if she didn't have a massive passive-aggressive smile plastered across her face.
But, upon recognizing her face, all of the rabid adventurers paused in place and slowly backed away, circling around the woman and taking their exit from the ear canal.
"Now… don't you think it's about time we finish this damn worm off? I was a bit busy with some other work, handling a few criminals and such… but, do you want to see a spectacle of a lifetime?" Auntie Clio asked.
Suddenly, unbeknownst to me, my maids appeared right behind me, and the maid of death picked me up by my armpits and then threw me on top of her.
The other maids helped me adjust onto her shoulders, so I was sitting on top of them before we flew out of the ear canal.
"That woman is dangerous…." My maid of death muttered before flying way up so we could see the entire sandworm in all its glory.
It had paused its assault on the city wall in order to regenerate its missing flesh, but now that the task had been completed, it darted its upper body towards the stone brick yet again.
I saw Auntie Clio run out of the ear canal, running across the thing's tough skin whilst fighting the force of gravity effortlessly.
Eventually, she reached the very top, where she formed two sand sickles and then smashed them together, creating a massive scythe made of glittering sandstone that she wielded beautifully.
There was no wind-up or building-up momentum… it was just a single swing that tore the worm straight in half.
Its two halves fell to the side, lifelessly as the thing had then died, painting the sand below it in a maroon shade with its almost brown blood.
The woman then turned towards me mid-air, just as she began to fall, giving me a large smile and a thumbs up.
[As for participating in the Boss Raid, you have obtained a partial reward]
[100,000 XP Gifted]
.
[You are now able to evolve]
[Extra XP has been converted into your next evolution]
.
The feeling of leveling up and the sensation of XP clacking against my mind was somewhat euphoric.
I couldn't stop smiling all the way until I reached Auntie Clio at the very bottom of the stone wall.
Various other adventurers were gathered to be scolded and had their licenses restricted for just a bit at the help of a man who was sent by the adventurer guild.
Soon, they had finished up their work, and Auntie turned toward me with a large smile, clearly hoping to talk with me more.
"Did you have fun?" She asked, her happiness practically beaming off of her.
"Yes… that was the most fun I've ever had in my life! Plus, guess what?! I was able to reach level one hundred in an instant! I can now evolve! Isn't that crazy!?" I exclaimed, and Auntie scooped me up by the armpits and carried me through the air.
"You're quite the impressive girl!"
