Chapter 1150 Nine and Iris
Walking through the ruined city, a pair of adventurers glanced around the corner with caution.
The male adventurer wore a ragged white shirt, a dirty jacket, jeans and a pair of boots. Strangely enough, on his back was a giant bag which seemed to contain a myriad of swords. One would usually store their weapon in the inventory so his act of carrying his blades was rather uncommon.
He had black hair that had blue highlights and a pair of red eyes.
The second adventurer was a girl with short blue hair and red highlights around the edges. She wore a white bandage over her eyes so one couldn't tell what colour eyes she had. She wore a black long sleeved dress and hid behind the male adventurer. Holding onto his sleeve, she had a nervous expression.
"Iris, what's the average level of the monsters nearby?" The male adventurer asked as Iris furrowed her brows.
"Judging from their mana, level 500 to 600. Let's see if we can find another way around." She replied, causing the male adventurer to frown.
"500 to 600 huh? Yeah that's a bit out of my power right now. Tsk, I don't know what they ate but they're becoming more active now." He muttered.
Looking around him to make sure that they were clear, he pulled Iris' arm and dashed across the street.
"Which route is safe?" He asked while keeping an eye out on monsters.
"Route A, C, D, E and F are filled with monsters now. B is open but monsters are wandering outside of the entrance." Iris replied after a short pause.

"It should be within your capabilities, Nine." Iris added as Nine nodded his head.
"Grab on tight then. I won't slow down." He said, sweeping Iris into his arms.
Inserting mana into his legs, he stomped down and shot into the air.
Landing on the roof, he jumped to the next as he started to travel across the rooftops.
As he approached what he called route B, he unbuttoned the bag on his back, allowing his swords to fall down.
*BANG!!

Landing on the ground, he allowed Iris to hop off before stomping his foot down. Tier 5 magic circles lit up on all of the swords that he dropped.
Clasping his hands together, each of the swords shot out and started to massacre the monsters that was wondering outside of the tunnel.
"How long until the level 500's start coming here?" Nine asked as Iris was about to reply when she froze in place.
"Iris?" Nine raised an eyebrow.
Feeling the space around them freezing, he looked up to see a portal being opened. Within the portal, a dragon slowly manifested itself. Its head extended out of the portal and started at the two of them.
[Juvenile Void Dragon LVL 750]
Opening its mouth, energy gathered to form a tier 6 magic circle.
Widening his eyes, Nine gritted his teeth and prepared to fight back. However, before he could, Iris opened her mouth.
"Someone else is coming. Someone stronger than this dragon."
Hearing this, Nine was a little surprised but trusted Iris. Ever since she was little, her senses regarding mana has been stronger than average. The only downside to this was that her sight was heavily impaired.
Her eyes were a little too sensitive to the changes in her surroundings so whenever she opened them, she would be bombarded by information. The white bandage around her eyes acted as a barrier that prevented this.
Before the dragon could fire his breath attack, ice started to form on his body. Its eyes widened with fear as Nine wondered who did this.
"I'm guessing you two are the ones that were camping out near the Awakening Shrine." A voice rang out behind them as the two of them glanced back.
Sitting on the roof of a building, Shiro looked down at the two before turning her attention to the dragon.
Just as she jumped into the rift to leave the underground Shrine, she sensed a dragon flying through the void and create a portal. Curious as to what was happening, Shiro followed behind it and didn't expect to find two survivors. Strangely enough, they were actually able to mask their mana and avoid her detection.
Of course, this was only when she was doing a standard sweep of the area. Unless she was specifically looking for them, they would be able to hide from her for a period of time.
"Well we can talk later. I'll deal with this dragon. Though if you want to smack him around a little to get more exp you can. I'll restrain him for you." Shiro smiled while checking their level and class.

[Nine LVL 450 Formation Blade Master]
[Iris LVL 400 Enchanter of Stars]
Looking at Iris, Nine thought for a moment. If this woman in front of him could really restrain the dragon then this boost in Exp would be extremely helpful.
However, there was a slight problem.
[Shiro LVL 1 Medic]
Not only that, her title would occasionally glitch out, fading between white and black.
With such a strange name tag, Nine wasn't sure if she could really do it.
Plus, he knew that she was definitely not a level 1 medic. If she was, she would not have been able to freeze the dragon nor could she make Iris think that she was stronger than the dragon.
He didn't know the extent of her power but he decided to trust his instincts.
"If you do not mind then I shall accept this kindness." Nine said as he stomped down. All of his swords started to radiate a destructive aura as tier 5 magic circles appeared on the blade.
Seeing this, Shiro smiled and narrowed her eyes at the monster and the dragon.
Opening her mouth, she released her mana.
"No body is allowed to move except for these two."
Sensing the oppressive mana that was exploding out from Shiro's body, all of the monsters shivered in fear while the dragon was trying to escape into the void. However, with Shiro keeping him locked in place, he was unable to leave. If he closed the portal, his head would get ripped off!
Thus he could only wait in place and hope that Shiro was kind to him.
While the monsters were frozen in place with fear, Nine grabbed two of the swords and dashed towards the dragon.
Behind him, Iris created a charm out of mana and threw it into the sky. Exploding with an astral radiance, flickers of light started to connect to one another, forming a constellation above her. A similar pattern appeared on Nine's blade.

Narrowing his eyes, his speed increased dramatically and disappeared from sight momentarily. Reappearing in front of the dragon's eye, he twisted his body and cleaved downwards with his two swords.
Even without knowing the skill, Shiro could tell that he didn't have enough power to harm the dragon. Even when targeting the eye, which was one of the weak spots, his sword simply did not have the attack power.
While she may not be a proper support, she still had a few skills that she could use to help him. Most of her skills had been locked away but due to Skill Alchemist, she could always make more.
Remembering one of the support skills that she had recycled before using nanobots, Shiro waved her finger and drew a rune in front of her.
[Berserker Enchantment]
[Dragon Slayer Aura]
[Elemental Edge]
All three of these skills would help him overcome the defences. Berserker Enchantment would increase his power dramatically, Dragon Slayer Aura caused him to ignore the natural defences of dragon scales and Elemental Edge infused all of the elements into one attack. It was similar one of Shiro's older skills that required her attunements only this time repurposed as a support skill instead.
Feeling boundless energy wrap around him, Nine widened his eyes in surprise.
*PUCHI!!!!
Cleaving through the scales with ease, he watched as his blades tore through the dragon's flesh, shredding the eye and left a ghastly wound stretching from his eye down to his jaw.
Just as he was about to go for a second strike, he flinched feeling the strain on his body.
'Well the result isn't bad, he still got a decent amount of damage with that strike. I thought that he would be able to land more than one but this should be enough. Hopefully the system gives him a decent amount of EXP. It's not like I need it.' Shiro thought to herself.
On the way here, she did kill a few monsters but her level didn't even rise by 1. She was still 'level 1'.

Shaking her head, she looked at the dragon and began testing her theory on the Divinity of Creation.
She wanted to heal this dragon so much until it ran out of vitality. A dragon's vitality was one of the best amongst the monsters, if a dragon died to this then that means the other monsters shouldn't stand a chance.

"What a big wound you have there, let me heal you." Shiro grinned sadistically as a tier 6 magic circle appeared on her wrist. Snapping her fingers, flowers appeared on the dragon's body, wrapping him in a gentle green light that healed his wound.
Despite her actions of healing him, the dragon was not happy. Watching his wounds disappear, his instincts kept telling him to run away but his body was stuck in place.
