The dragon's harem

Chapter 813 Nuclear Chaos



Chapter 813 Nuclear Chaos

Unlike before, Arad didn't have any shackles this time. No land to worry about blasting, no Mira to worry about feeding with mana, and no void to concentrate on to heal Zul. All limitations he had placed upon himself had lifted up, and he was only moving with the sole reason of burying this creature ahead of him under existence itself.

When he lifted his front claws and put them together, Vorvadoss could feel it for the first time, a rush of a feeling he had never felt before.

[Void Expansion: Nuclear Chaos]

Inspired by Betty who used two expansions at the same time; Arad tried doing the same thing and layered all of his expansion versions on top of one another, resulting in a deformed mess of a spell that even the abominations couldn't fathom.

The accursed pillar of cursed Metal emerged behind his back and flashed blue, unleashing a violent wave of heat and nuclear radiation that filled his entire expansion radius, turning it into an environment akin to the core of a nuclear reactor going through a meltdown.

Dots of light emerged everywhere as Arad started releasing crushed matter from his stomach into his expansion the same way his brother did to Demogorgan in the abyss, and soon enough countless beams of light targeted Vorvadoss from every direction.

While inside Arad's expansion, all matter begins to disintegrate, including Vorvadoss who started finding it hard to maintain his shape. This was the effect of devouring void.

While firing half of his reserve, Arad used the other half to form countless small [Ho-white Nova] that would explode upon contact and orbit him like moons, which made even moving near impossible when ensnared within the expansion.

But even this wasn't enough, Arad wasn't only angry, but he was enraged. The vampire army inside his body all rushed out through the chaos as they were immune to it due to being part of Arad, and they all surrounded Vorvadoss. This was [Blood Expansion: Army of Blood]

Arad himself wasn't sitting and waiting, with him casting all of this at once, he extended his lycanthropic claws and lunged forward at Vorvadoss with the blood army, swinging like a raging werewolf.

^All of this at once?^ Vorvadoss gasped, seeing the vampires swinging at him with Arad behind them coming with a blazing claw. ^Just how much was he holding back earlier? No, he wasn't holding back, something was sucking his magic, and he wouldn't have let me strike him with the soul blade otherwise.^ He tried to block the vampire's fists, they looked like nothing more than bandits, they can't hit that hard… But the moment one hit him, their fists unleashed a beam of concentrated energy akin to Arad's breaths.

^Fight back! Fight back!^ He could hear their thoughts burning, those weren't normal vampires, they could use Arad's power as they lived in his blood.

The horde of vampires ganged up on Vorvadoss and started smacking and kicking him left and right amidst the nuclear chaos, and when Arad arrived, his claw hit the abomination so hard that he sent him flying outside the expansion.

Vorvadoss flew out spinning from Arad's hit, and he barely managed to get back on his feet. But that was the last time he sensed peace as Arad's expansion flew at him at a horrifying speed. Arad was always at its center so it moved with, a 40km black sphere of destruction.

^Did he flings me all the way outside?^ Vorvadoss barely had time to consider what had happened. He lifted his arms and got ready to form a barrier to protect himself, but once again, Arad was one step ahead of him.

ZON! Arad teleported with his expansion right behind Vorvadoss to not give him any time to counter and smacked him down with a clenched fist.

Vorvadoss gave up on creating a perfect barrier and focused on knocking Arad down so he could escape. He immediately stood up as a thin barrier formed around his skin to reflect the heat and radiation of Arad's expansion and swung a fist up to push Arad's claw away.

Arad didn't care one bit and swung his other three front claws at once, all charged with as much energy as he could put on them, and sent Vorvadoss flying out of the expansion again.

^This bastard… He's attacking me so hard that even he can't keep me in the expansion with his gravity. Since when did this monster get born into the mortal world?^ Vorvadoss thought as he landed only for Arad to teleport to him again. The vampires ganged on his once more, and he dodged their attacks while trying to keep an eye on Arad, not that he could see anything inside the expansion as it was blindingly bluish-white, full of light from the accursed pillar.

^Where is his power coming from? Did it have something to do with those beavers, no, don't think too much, this isn't the time.^ He jumped back and waved his hand. [Dimensional Lock]

Even though Arad was a void dragon attuned to space and time, those powers were secondary to his main one, unlike Vorvadoss who was known as the lord of space and dimension.

When the two fought for dominion over space, their magic canceled each other which started preventing Arad from teleporting with [Void step] but it also meant Vorvadoss couldn't teleport as well. This wouldn't have been the case if Vorvadoss wasn't weakened from his thousands of years of imprisonment.

Arad opened his jaw and unleashed a breath far stronger than anything he was unleashing inside his expansion, which sent Vorvadoss flying away in a ball of raging energy.

Vorvadoss glided through the ground violently so much that he left a burning trench. Even if he tried to stop, Arad's energy was too violent for him to cancel or tame.

Arad suddenly stopped his expansion and stood in place, glaring at Vorvadoss.

^What's up? Is he finally out of energy?^ Vorvadoss started getting ready to attack and pulled the soul-splitting blade.

Arad tilted his head, and the energy he used to maintain the expansion flew right back into his stomach and into his veins, changing form into a new element. He had already discovered it weeks ago, but it didn't seem to have a use so he ignored it. But he has just figured out what it could do. The element was lithium.

By stacking it beneath his skin, muscles, and through his void, Arad created thousands over thousands of thin layers of lithium that started holding an electric charge. He usually had a limit to how much energy he could output that was dictated by his body, but by using this, he can turn himself into a massive extra-dimensional battery that holds more electricity than he can cast normally with magic. Millions over billions of volts held through each layer of the thousands of layers that he made, a horrific number that even the vampires inside his stomach started hiding.

Lightning started arcing between his wings and teeth, illuminating the empty void. Vorvadoss stopped and stared at him, terrified. He had just realized, that Arad didn't run out of energy, he was charging something.

Arad opened his jaw with a roar, unleashing a lightning breath unknown to even the blue dragons, a massive bolt that dwarfed even his expansion in size.

Even though Arad charging the breath gave Vorvadoss enough time to form a barrier, such defenses were futile against the sheer energy carried by the lightning and he got incinerated into nothingness.

CRACK! A skeleton appeared out of nowhere and flesh started filling it, Vorvadoss is a soulless abomination, a monster beyond what the norms of the world dictate, his regeneration far surpassed anything else.

Inside Arad's stomach, Flatail gasped, staring at the lightning-

infused sky as he sat among the vampires. "What in the timber…"

"Our lord is angry. It's been a long time since we've seen him this pissed off." A vampire replied to him.

"Was he always this strong?" Flatail stared at his hands, "Those things are too big, more than…" He fell down, bleeding. His injuries are finally getting into him.

The vampire waved his hand and pulled a healing potion out of the void, all of them did have access to Arad's stock of potions and poisons that he was making. "Drink this; it'll get you patched up."

Flatail bit the potion's cap off and downed it in a single gulp. His wounds slowly healed and he stopped bleeding. "I knew dragons were strong, but I never expected him to be this powerful. He was large, but never looked like someone who could do this."

"Our lord is a gentle being. He never uses his power unless he needs to." The vampires looked at the cursed Pillar floating above them.

"Just standing close to that thing is enough to kill any living being. Arad is actively protecting us and everyone around him from it." The vampire pointed. The radiation stored within Arad's stomach was at levels so high that life couldn't be within. If he so wished, he could let it out, cursing everyone around him to death.

Doma sighed in the back; she had just finished sewing Arad's human soul together. It'll take it time to heal, but that should be the best that could be done.

"A wasteland several tens of kilometers wide, everyone who tries to enter falls on their knees, puking and bleeding. The curse of the land eats their soul and they fall dead without even getting a step closer to the center." Doma walked toward Flatail. "The one in the middle is a void dragon, asleep, undisturbed. Nothing alive could even earn the privilege of seeing him. Arad is such a dragon, but thanks to his gentle nature, he has started living among people and built a family. His claws are so gentle that he could even pick a small beaver-

like you without harming him." She lifted Flatail up and stared at him with a smile.

"But, there is a line that shouldn't be crossed. One of Vorvadoss's clones approached Arad's pregnant wife."

"Arad is angry…" Flatail looked up, sweating.

"Vorvadoss is the one who forced Arad's hand, and now he is facing the monster Arad hid from everyone to protect them." Doma smiled.

As Vorvadoss tried to regenerate fully, his arms began falling and his flesh started to rot. ^A curse?^ The radiation started getting into him, staying this close to Arad is a suicide. He looked up, seeing Arad approaching him while growling.
