Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 1355: Testing New Powers
-----
"B-Blake?!"
Erika noticed that I had suddenly fallen unconscious for a moment when I confronted Fafnir momentarily.
I found myself on my knees, it seems that using that power put some strain into my head.
"I'm fine, I was just… expanding my horizons, perhaps."
"Eh?"
"Haha, I used a new power that allowed me to expand my mind much further away. I could see and hear anything hundreds of kilometers from here."
"Wait, what?! Really?"
"Yeah, it was tiring though. I even got to chat with cute little Fafnir."
"F-Fafnir?! You talked with the evil dragon we're going to kill? For real?!"
"Yes for real, he was enormous… actually bigger than Bestellen on his strongest form."
"No way…"
"The bastard made a huge nest on top of the dying Yggdrasil, just to mock the tree even further. We had a little chat; he was planning to go to our continent."
"Eh?!"
"But I stopped him, I showed him a scary thing and he liked it so much he wants nothing but to kill me now. So he'll patiently wait for me."
"H-How though?"
"Well…"
I explained to her what happened, and Erika simply couldn't believe half the things I told her. As I talked to her, I noticed Elizabeth walking out of the castle while chatting with Alberta and Eric, the two had already woken up and presumably taken a bath and dressed for the day.
"S-So that happened…" Erika nodded. "Your power is amazing then, Blake! What else can it do?"
"Well, I am still trying to figure it out myself," I said. "But let's try some more of this Aura."
I closed my eyes and concentrated into my heart once more.
And, once again…!
{Spiritual Cosmic Dragon Heart}!
TRUUUM!
I felt my very being converge with all my energies within my heart, all of them flowing towards the same point.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, I realized I was having an out of body experience again!
My consciousness was drifting out of my body.
And to make things more surprising…
"Hm?!"
I was a large dragon myself, made of these converged energies…
"What in the world?!"
I couldn't believe it; this power was far beyond and much different than anything before.
I saw my body standing right beneath me, but this time, I could still feel it.
If I can concentrate completely, it seems I can control both of them.
This isn't the same as when I turn the Rainbow Star into a doppelganger of myself I control as a second body.
When I use the Rainbow Star, it feels much more natural and easier, without putting much of a strain at all in my head.
But this is a bit different.
I think I am beginning to figure out why this power is like this too.
When I obtained this new Skill and this new Heart, I was temporarily moved to the confines of the cosmos, where the essence of the stars filled my heart.
In that moment, my dragon heart exploded and was reborn as a cosmic dragon heart.
And when that happened, I was able to see and heard various voices, gigantic and all-powerful voices resonating everywhere.
And based in what they were saying, it wasn't hard to assume they were actual Cosmic Dragons.
I had never met one myself through my entire previous life, however.
And seeing how they could sense me from so far and even speak to me, and if I'm not mistaken, even feel their auras and claws approaching…
It could be said I've become a "small" version of them, while their power could expand their Will and Power through a large and vast area of the universe, right now, I can do it around… roughly a hundred kilometers around me.
The bad thing is that I get mentally tired quickly, and it drains my energy like crazy… Another part of this ability is this one.
TRUUUM!
A giant cosmic dragon claw manifested and hit the ground a hundred meters away from me, making Erika jump off the log she was sitting on.
"Eh?! What was that?!"
"Calm down Erika, it was me. I'm testing my abilities. Did you see that?"
I talked through my body as usual, even though I was seeing myself speaking right now.
It was honestly strange.
"Yeah… It was part of your power?"
"Hm, yes. It seems that I can manifest draconic body parts out of thin air within the area I expand my own Will and Consciousness."
"Wow, that sounds really helpful! How many?"
"Right now? I can't really tell, so I'll test…"
Their power right now seems strong though, but I suppose Fafnir was so powerful it didn't even scratch him, aside from just scaring him.
I concentrated and rapidly manifested another claw, and then another and another and…
"Hmm… I can't do more."
Four was the limit.
But what about a dragon head or tail and wings?
I was able to do them all, even manifest individual scales.
I realized that whenever I manifested one of such body parts, my astral avatar would lose that part.
So what I am doing is merely moving these body parts through this expanded domain.
This is… very interesting!
Now let's test their power.
"Braveblitz! I want you to fight those things coming after you! Can you? I know you've been hitching for a fight."
"Oooh?! Haha! Sure!"
The giant robot leaped into action before Alberta or Eric could reach him in time, it seemed they wanted to talk with him.
RUMBLE!
As he jumped into the skies, he reached the claws that came after him.
They were just as big as he was.
I moved one of them and quickly used it to attack him.
CLAAASH!
"Ugh?!"
Braveblitz groaned in pain, suddenly falling from the skies and slamming his body into the floor.
BAAAM!
"Oh…"
Was that too strong? Well I used all of its power.
I suppose Braveblitz is still not strong enough, he needs to level up after all.
"HAHAHAH! T-THAT WAS NOTHING!"
RUMBLE!
However, he quickly leaped out of the crater, manifesting golden flames across his body, as Nova infused herself into his chest.
"I wasn't even ready back then! Now, let's get serious!"
He swung his blazing fists against the cosmic draconic claw.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
