SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

"Lily, heal him up."

Lily did as he spoke, and Orion\'s hand regenerated. While Orion was getting happy that his hand was back, Silva spoke again.

"All of you have one opportunity to ask for healing, and sadly, Orion has used up his opportunity. There will be no healing for him from here on out," Silva said.

Orion froze when he heard that. How was that fair? Silva didn\'t tell him. How could he have known? But he couldn\'t voice his thoughts. If he did, he would die.

"Now begin," Silva gave the go-ahead.

Gallan slammed his foot into the ground suddenly, his body shot forward like a rocket, so fast that the three could not react.

When he stopped, he was right in front of Orion, about to slash him in two. The mage quickly cast an earth spell that created a wall to block the attack, buying Orion enough time to step away.

The wall did little to stop Gallan though. His blade cut through with ease. He pushed forward and chased Orion, going for another slash.

Orion had to think quick. He parried the strike, but the force behind it was too much for him. His shoulder dislocated, and he was sent flying into a wall.

The other swordsman tried to take advantage and attack just as Orion was sent flying, but Gallan was alert.

The man slashed at Gallan, but Gallan parried it easily and stepped in. He used his second sword to slash down diagonally.

The man looked at the blade coming towards him. He couldn\'t dodge, it was way too fast.

Just as he was about to give up, a fireball slammed into Gallan\'s hand and pushed it back.

"Oh, a dual mage. This may be interesting," Silva thought.

With Gallan pushed back, the man was able to retreat and recollect himself.

Orion had also gotten up. He popped his shoulder back into place and got into his stance.

"I will not go down like this," Orion said. His sword shone brightly with a yellow light, and his aura changed.

"So he has light affinity, a very terrifying affinity, but against Gallan, it\'s like a candle flame," Silva thought.

"Both of you cover me, I\'ll take the lead," Orion said, charging at Gallan at top speed.

The mage cast a streak of flames that Gallan had to block. She did it to block his view, allowing the other swordsman to get behind Gallan.

The man went for a stab, but Gallan spun around and blocked it. The plan was now in place. With Gallan\'s back to Orion, he could attack.

Orion leaped into the air, his sword shining brighter. He stabbed down right at Gallan\'s neck.

Gallan smirked when he saw this. Even when he was a normal goblin king, these A-ranked adventurers would have a hard time with him. So now that he was ten times stronger, they were nothing.

He stomped his foot on the ground and gave a wall-shaking roar. The sound penetrated the ears of the three of them.

Their eardrums were torn, and they bled from their ears.

Orion could no longer complete the attack. He fell to the ground and covered his ears in pain, his brain ringing continuously.

"Is this all? Is this the end of your struggle?" Gallan asked in an insulting tone.

"They can\'t hear you, Gallan, you destroyed their ears," Silva said.

"Oh, I see. Then there is no point in talking," Gallan said, but before he moved to finish them off, the mage and the swordsman raised their hands and yelled.

"We would like to use our healing now."

Silva smiled and signaled Lily to do it. She healed them, and they were able to stand good as new again.

The mage took out a potion and fed it to Orion, but then she felt a deathly pressure on her, causing her to shiver.

"No need to get angry, Elsa. I didn\'t tell them not to use personal items. She hasn\'t broken the rules," Silva said while patting her on the head.

"Okay, Daddy," she responded and withdrew the pressure, allowing the mage to breathe well.

After taking the healing potion, Orion was able to stand again. He got on his feet and carried his sword again.

"I hope your second try won\'t be as pathetic as the first one," Gallan said, then dashed towards them.

The mage was quick. She cast an earth spike spell, causing spikes to shoot out of the ground, but Gallan either dodged or cut through them.

He was like an unstoppable monster; his speed didn\'t reduce even once.

Orion used his sword again, but this time, he also used a technique that added to his speed a bit. He charged at Gallan.

When he was just a few steps from Gallan, he tried to jump to the side, but as he did that, he saw Gallan\'s eyes trailing him, and then his arm and blade as well.

Orion used what energy he had and blocked the blade. The impact shattered his sword and sent him flying into a wall, leaving a crack in the wall.

Gallan turned his attention to the other swordsman. He charged at him as well. The swordsman tried to move, but Gallan was already there.

As a last-ditch effort, the swordsman activated his technique, lightning sword, and tried to use it to stab Gallan.

Gallan parried the attack and then headbutted the man, immediately sending him to the ground, unable to move.

Now all that was left was the mage. But when she saw the other two were taken out, she broke down. She fell to the ground, shivering.

"I guess that\'s enough for round one. You three lost, so I get to choose the rules of the next game.

And it\'s a simple game of telling the truth. You lie, you die," Silva got up and said.
