"Zephy! Are you okay?"

"Uuuggh… Big monster…"

"I know you\'re scared but didn\'t you wanted to come with us? You\'ll have to fight monsters through your whole life eventually."

I sighed for a bit.

"Nephi, take care of him for now, okay? Zephy we\'ll bring you back home if you feel you\'re not ready yet." I said, I didn\'t wanted to risk his life pointlessly. Even if it sounded slightly rude.

"Nooo! I want to go into an adventure…" He cried.

"GRUOOOHHHHH!"

An enormous Crystal Alligator showed up in front of us, as Zephy suddenly froze in fear over the beast. Nephi and I remained calm, the Nephilim quickly pointed her hands at the beast, as they suddenly shapeshifted into metallic cannons.

"[Light Ray]"

F L A A A A A S H!

Two powerful rays of light emerged from her hands, hitting the Crystal Alligator and blowing it away into the air, making it falling into the ground. Somehow, it was still alive mostly due to its insanely big size.

B A A A M!

The Fishmen on top of them were quickly dealt by me, as I went all out and unleashed a barrage of blazing sword slashes.

SLASH! SLASH!

"GRYYAAAKH!"

The Fishmen fell, roasted alive. In between all the explosions and fights, Zephy felt frozen in time. He looked like he didn\'t knew what to do despite my father having been teaching him swordsmanship for a while now.

"GRAAAARRGH!"

The enormous Crystal Alligator roared, rushing towards Zephy directly, opening its enormous jaws. In between the fear Zephy was feeling, desperation bubbled from within his heart, he suddenly gritted his teeth, as his emerald eyes became black and purple for a second, and large quantities of darkness gathered within his hand.

"G-Get awaaaay!"

FLAAASH!

Zephy unleashed a massive blast of darkness from within his tiny palm, impacting the Alligator\'s open mouth, and blasting its insides!

B O O O O O M M M!!!

"GROOAR…!"

The Alligator died as its insides were destroyed, falling into the ground. I was about to kill it myself, but it seems Zephy was rather capable, he merely needed an incentive, a little push, I suppose.

Though, why did his eyes turned black and purple?

"Zephy! Are you okay?" I asked him, hugging him.

"Ahhh… I-I am fine…" He sighed. "Ugh… I-I did it!"

"You did! But… are you sure you\'re okay?" I felt worried.

He nodded slowly.

"I-I think I had to get a bit of courage…" He sighed. "Though it was very scary… I am still scared…"

Yeah, I guess it\'s normal at the beginning. His magic was indeed pretty strong, being able to blast a Tier 3 Monster so easily is not normal at all…

"GROAR!"

However, the battle was not over, as we got closer to the lake, more monsters would continue to show up anyway. We had to quickly get these guys done with. My friends and Familiars had already reduced the monsters, over half of them were already dealt with by now.

Three more Alligators reached us, mounted by Fishmen Magicians. Water Bullets and Water Vortexes were summoned, directed at us right as I looked over Zephy.

"Nephi, take care of the one at the left!"

"Understood."

We quickly jumped into battle. Nephi loaded her hands with Mana once more, releasing several rays of light from within them. The Water Spells were not much of an issue at all, as we blocked them using our attacks, but the giant alligators opening their jaws became a bit of a problem.

However, as I gathered power through the Sunlight directly reaching my body, at the same time I also felt the power of my new Dragon Heart growing vaster. Momentarily, my arms and neck gained red dragon scales, and a small red horn grew on top of my forehead. The fiery power of my blessings fused with the dragon heart, generating a short burst of incredible power.

"[Draconic Sword Arts]: [Infernal Dragon Meteor]!"

FLUOOOSH!

My body as engulfed on flames, as my sword unleashed a calamitous eruption of blazing flames in the shape of a roaring dragon, reaching the two Alligators in front of me and consuming them into a flaring inferno.

BOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!

The enormous attack easily consumed the two Alligators and the Fishmen on top of them into the deadly flames, everything was just fire. I quickly rested over the two roasted monsters, as I looked back at Zephy with a smile.

"If you train hard and develop your powers well enough, one day you might be able to do the same."

Zephy\'s eyes shone brightly in admiration, he seemed completely enchanted by my movements and attacks.

"So cool… Big sis\'s the coolest!" He raised his little hands and then looked at his own rapier. "I have to grow stronger too!"

"Hahahah. But take it easy." I sighed, quickly looking back at my party it seems the other monsters were quickly eliminated.

Our whole Party was pretty strong already! Zack with his powerful Axe Strikes utilizing Lightning and Wind, he devastated his foes with thunderous and storming blows. Aquarina was able to manipulate the water they conjured and throw it back at them, and then use her two powerful daggers to slice through their ranks sneakily.

Celeste uses the combination of dark magic, curses, and her magic spear to slice and pierce through them at fast speed, the same way we once fought, she\'s a very deadly fighter, and her long venomous tail can also inflict tons of damage. Mist is a support for now, healing and buffing us so we can unleash even more destructive damage, all while firing arrows from a distance, although she\'s still practicing.

And then Celica and Nephi, our latest additions to our Party. Celica mostly fights using her Threads and her Teddy Bear as her guardian. She actually has more plushies with her, which she summons accordingly to how hard things become, they\'re all her Golem Familiars as well. She\'s very capable of both offense and defense.

And well, lastly…
