Harsh wind blow as Juno feets sink deep into the snow every step she took, at the moment she is climbing the mountain, at first everything was fine as she flew over the first 2 mountain but once she reach the bigger ones the weather went completely shit.
She couldn't even fly as the wind would make her use all her mana just to fly for 2 minutes in this weather so she decided to walk, keeping her mana incase something decided to try to kill her.
A very strong gust of wind nearly push Juno back as she hold Amun cloak for dear life, at the moment she is so grateful for him giving her this cloak so she didn't freeze to death, she can't even feel her lip anymore.
She didn't know how long she walk but she found a hole big enough for her to crouch in she look inside to found a small space with ice wall inside. Juno decide to get in to wait out this shit weather also to rest becasue she felt like her legs are going to fall off any second
" fuckkkk" Juno groan as her body felt like fire, using the woft ear to fix her sore she felt better, she pull out her map she should reach the boss area in 2-3 hour Juno get going again but the weather didn't still calm down, she decided to just fuck it and continue walking.
the closer she get the stronger the wind was and when she was close she hear a loud boom, she look in the distance seeing flashes of light she try to sneak in as close as possible and that when she stop in shock
An ice dragon roar, it was big, insanely big it has ice spike along its back, it yellow eyes seem to be staring at someone...Ajax?! He had the red wolf fur warp around him, he was in bad shape his right arm seem to be cover in ice along with the right size of his face using eyes of darkness Juno can see that his mana is very low as his soul was not shining brightly.
" foolish tiger, you dare to challenge a dragon and now you are paying the price" the ice dragon seem to laugh making Ajax glare at it with anger " tss the fight is not over as long as i am not dead" he reply back as he try to use mana when suddenly he cough up some blood
" you reach your limit" The dragon seem to smirk " you shall die here " Ajax look hopeless he can't use any more mana and the cold weather isn't helping as without mana he going to freeze to death or die by this dragon
Juno grab her chest in pain, why does it feel like her blood is boiling? should she save him? but why? he own her nothing and he is going to die anyway but why does she feel so guilty unlike the time where she kill the whole village? then she realize it the Wyvern blood in her yelling at her to not let the Dragon get what it wants, it the will of her original body.
suddenly the memory of a burn down city is forced into her mind, 5 dragon fly in the air as a smaller verson if the dragons try to stop them... no those are wyvern they are trying to defend my city.. My city? is that where i use to live? the memory stopped making Juno clench her teeth.
The Ice dragon open it mouth before shooting an ice beam at Ajax, Ajax already accepted his fate he felt like he going to die a dog death but that when last moment Juno fly and grabbed him out the way, that was way too close. She wanted to kill the dragon but Ajax not dying is more important right now plus can she even kill it?
suddenly mid flight Juno saw the Dragon swing it tail toward them making her dodge it but what she didn't realize is the Dragon shoot ice shards out of it tail successfully going through her left wing making she fall on the snow with Ajax but she use herself as a landing shield for him.
It hurt like hell because of Ajax fatass but she then use 'Absord' and continued flying away the dragon roar in anger as it try to fly after them, Juno then realize each time the dragon flap it wings it make those winds that keep pushing Juno while she was climbing the mountain, So she use the wind as a speed boost she fly in tight space while barly carrying Ajax to try to lose the Dragon as the Dragon try shooting her down with ice shards.
She saw a small ice cave then had a plan, she use 'ice hell' to make a huge wall of ice spears blocking the line of sight of the dragon for a few seconds as the dragon destroyed it that give her enough time to fly in the cave using 'wind bullet' to shoot the snow above the cave to cover the entrance.
Juno crash on the floor of the cave using herself as a shield again for Ajax as her mana run out, she pray the dragon is doesn't realize she is in the cave.
The Ice Dragon roar in anger as it lost it pray, making the storm on the mountain grow stronger as it fly around looking for the 2 of them.
Juno got up, she fuck up her arm in the landing but it ok she just adsorb and heal but she doesn't have a lot of wolf ear left then she realize how bad Ajax wound is, he is barly breathing and unconscious which make Juno panic " fuck fuck where is the mana potion and health potion" she look in her bag and saw that she have only 1 health potion left becasue the rest of the glass potion was broken from her flying and crashing on things
she pour it down Ajax thoat but the only difference it did is making his skin go back to it nomarl color, the ice from the ice dragon is still on Ajax. Juno grab his arm but his skin was cold as ice, she decided to warp Ajax in Amun cloak before she took some wolf fur from her bag and warp around her so she doesn't freeze too.
Juno try to break the ice off Ajax but it didn't work, should she try her new skill? she barly have any mana left but let try it anyway,she grabbed Ajax hand 'Water of life' slowly she feel her water mana flow into Ajax, it slowly seem to help him regenerate the part where her mana flow in, she decided to try to mediante while using the skill this is going to be a long process.
it take at least 3 hour to finish the ice arm due to how bad the damage on him is, the water mana slowly adsorb the ice mana of the dragon then Juno sit there for at least 7 more hour to finish healing his whole body including the face " you own me a fuck ton" Juno was mentally exhausted and pass out the moment she lay the on the floor.
.
.
.
she feel Amun cloak on her, huh when did she put it on her? then she realize Ajax is sitting on the side of the cave leaning against the wall, he open his eyes when he heard Juno moving.
Juno stare at him " tss can you stop looking at me" Juno lift her eyebrows up " at least you didn't get brain damage from all that fight" Juno sighed before sitting up
Ajax had a bitter expression remember the fight from earlier, he bite his lip untill it was bleeding to think he would lose so bad make him feel worthless" oi don't go making your face bleed again, you know i spend like 10 hour healing you?" Juno was about to slap Ajax but seeing his bitter expression she understand he probably felt frustrated
" let see if we can beat it together then"
Ajax look surprised at Juno, he felt bad she already not only save him from death but heal him and now she offer to help him kill the dragon.
" you help me enough-"
Juno glare at him " from your shitty personality you will probably go fight the damn dragon again, i didn't heal you for you to go die"
Ajax look down in shame telling Juno that her guess was correct, Juno sit down next to him " look if you wanna kill it we need to make a plan" Ajax stay quiet which make Juno wanna beat the shit out of him
" Look i am trying-"
" Thank you"
Juno stop what she is trying to say mid sentence, she is shocked did Ajax say Thank you?
"i am sorry i cause you lot of problem, i am in your debt" Ajax scratch his head embarrassed from saying thank and from the fact he indeed needed her help
' why don't you repay me with that pretty face of yours' Juno laughed wickedly in her mind but then composed herself
" it no problem"
