Chapter 1642 1642. Requesting the Permission to Kill Stealing
When Broidrireg escaped Suzaki’s fire domination, Tiemezzys heaved a huge relief. Now that he didn’t have to worry about that old dragon, he could refocus his attention on dealing with this husk of his former brother. Zombie Eurdrasill still had woody tentacles curling around his body. He grabbed them and tore them one by one while Eurdrasill continued assailing him. His rock armor was already broken.
Tiemezzys sensed an assault coming his way. He turned and saw several gigantic black swords fly his way. But these swords didn’t target him, they hit the woody tentacles that were entangling him.
The black swords failed to cut the woody tentacles, but they caused deep enough gashes which weakened the tentacles. Tiemezzys didn’t let the chance go. He heaved with full strength and all the woody tentacles that bound him were torn apart.
Tiemezzys looked at the source of the black swords after he was free. It was an eternal-grade Vampire.
“I’m an ally,” Arlcard informed the dragon.
“Hmph,” Tiemezzys simply grunted. He lunged at Eurdrasill who was still regrowing the woody tentacles sprouting from his body.
Tiemezzys cast a spell while advancing. Six large earth pillars in the shape of cones appeared around him. The cones spun at high speed and flew forward like drilling rockets.
Eurdrasill cast a spell and a wall of vines came up in front of him. This was no ordinary wall of vines like the one conjured by druids. The vines Eurdrasill called upon were ten times larger and full of thorns.
Despite the vines’ intimidating sizes, Tiemezsys’s drilling earth cones still ripped them apart. But out of the destroyed vines, multiple smaller vines burst out. These smaller vines entangled the still-spinning earth cones. Many of these vines snapped from the spinning power, but more soon replaced them. As more and more vines latched onto the spinning cones, the spinning slowed. The cones eventually stopped spinning. Once they did, they lost their power. The vines tightened their grips and the cones were crushed.
The cones still caused the vines to expand most of their power. When Tiemezzys charged through the vines, they were torn apart without slowing Tiemezzys down. However, a chain of sharp winds greeted him once he got past the vines.
Tiemezzys put a magic shield before him, one that was covered by solid rock. The rock shield endured the winds for a while but they were soon sliced to pieces. The sharp winds assailed Tiemezzys’ body, dealing damage but Tiemezzys forced himself to advance.
While Eurdrasill cast his superior wall of vines and flurry of sharp winds, Arlcard also took action. He transformed into a large number of bats and swarmed Eurdrasill. Eurdrasill’s still-growing wood tentacles tried slapping the bats with little success.
The bats reformed into Arlcard behind Eurdrasill and he delivered countless shadow slashes using his crimson rapier. Despite Arlcard being twelve levels weaker, his attacks still managed to pierce through Eurdrasill’s hard wooden skin. This was because Arlcard’s every slash was empowered by mana manipulation. The damage those slashes dealt wasn’t that high, though.
Eurdrasill grunted and his body created a strong gush of wind. Arlcard was hit by this wind. He received damage and was sent tumbling away.
Tiemezzys arrived then. He slammed his heavy body into Eurdrasill. Eurdrasill didn’t defend against the slam because he was occupied with Arlcard. While Eurdrasill stumbled from the slam, Tiemezzys stomped the ground. Earth spears came out of the ground and pierced Eurdrasill. At the same time, he cast a spell that conjured a rock cloud. This rock cloud battered Eurdrasill while he delivered non-stop assaults at Eurdrasill using claws and teeth.
Arlcard sent ranged attacks by throwing shadow bat darts to chip Eurdrasill’s HP. He also cast Shadow Lock when Eurdrasill seemed about to retaliate. This spell stopped Eurdrasill long enough to give Tiemezzys the chance to continue his combo.
With Arlcard’s support, the battle that already favored Tiemezzys became even more one-sided.

Not far away, Jack led Meryl, Therras, and his surviving royal agents and hit the back of the Liguritudum army. The disruption they caused allowed the Sangrod army to gain more advantage.
While fighting, Jack paid attention to the battle between the eternal combatants. When Broidrireg cast his spell on the helpless Suzaki, Jack was about to head over to use his Runestone of Luck. But then he noticed Suzaki’s HP was nowhere near critical. Broidrireg wasn’t delivering a killing strike. Suzaki was gone afterward. He wasn’t sure what had happened.
Then he saw the other side where Tiemezzys and Arlcard were fighting Eurdrasill. Eurdrasill’s HP was almost depleted.
Jack told everyone to keep fighting while he used gold dragon wings and rushed to where Arlcard was. When he arrived, Tiemezzys had just unleashed his divine earth breath and taken down another chunk of Eurdrasill’s HP. The zombie dragon was near death already. It was also restrained by a giant rock hill Tiemezzys had summoned previously.
“Mighty sir, please allow me to deliver the killing blow,” Jack said to Eurdrasill. “I know he is your kin. I know you don’t want to fight him if you can help it. There is no need to torment yourself by killing him. Let us be the one to bear this pain.”
“… You are after his loot, aren’t you?” Tiemezzys asked.
“Uh… Haha,” Jack laughed awkwardly. Arlcard was involved in the fight, so some loot should drop when Eurdrasill was defeated, but it wouldn’t be many since the majority of Eurdrasill’s HP was reduced by Tiemezzys. If he or Arlcard delivered the killing blow, then this should increase the number and quality of the dropped loot.
Tiemezzys looked at Broidrireg. The old dragon had gone and rained hell on the zombie army after he took care of Suzaki. He didn’t come and help Tiemezzys because he saw Tiemezzys was not in trouble. If he could help it, he preferred to not fight another true dragon, even if it was a zombie version.
Tiemezzys understood Broidrireg’s action. He also didn’t find it thrilling fighting Eurdrasill.
“Hmph,” With a grunt, Tiemezzys flew away to where Broidrireg was.
Since the yellow dragon had flown away, Jack considered he received the blessing for this kill stealing. He wasn’t going to waste it. He looked at the wood dragon restrained by the rock hill. It had less than five percent of HP left.
