《The Adventures of the Mask Maker》The Dragons' Invasion: Day 3
Advertisement
Since Reachii had already wiped out all the dragons attacking Delta Town, I decided to focus on the dragons flying out of the teleportation circle in the cave. There seems to be about 200 of them. But, before that, I started making a condensed fireball. I first reached in my bag and pull out the mask - Mask of the Fiery Demon. Wearing it, my abilities in fire increased significantly and the firepower increased as well. Then, I started generating a huge fireball - as big as the city itself.
After the giant fireball was created, I started using Essence Manipulation and condense the fireball until it is as big as a normal house. However, these seems to be too big. I can go smaller...but not out here. Activating Maker's Domain, I continued to condense the fireball. Finally, after half an hour, I was able to condense the once gigantic fireball into a orange-sized super condensed fireball. The fireball has been condensed so much that an outer layer of solid Fire Essence was formed. I take this fireball and placed it in a spherical container with a string attached. Done! Fire bomb completed - I dub it the Wrath Bomb.
I hand this Wrath Bomb to Shadow and told him that he should use it to ignite the city when all the dragons are trapped inside. This bomb can be ignited if it's Fire Essence is disturbed inside the container. Fortunately, the container will prevent most outside disturbances. The flames of the fireball is fueled with Flames of Wrath and won't be extinguished until all is burned to ash. Use with caution I told him.
..........
After creating the Wrath Bomb and handing it to Shadow, I headed out towards the teleportation circle near the cave. Upon nearing the cave, I see many dragons coming out of nowhere and flying into the skies. The dragons number close to 200 and there were a mix of Earth, Plant, and Poison Dragons...no Dual-types it seems...well not any I can see.

These dragons seem to be stronger than previous dragons. It's time to use the Art I learned a few weeks back - Meridian Destruction Art. With a leap, I used Roaming the Skies and flew into the air. While staying afloat, I activated my Eye of Odin. The Eye of Odin is the stone eyeball that replaced my left eye a few days ago after Morian pierced it out. With the Eye of Odin activated, I was able to see all the Acupressure Points as well as the weaknesses of the dragons in front of me. Initially, the Meridian Destruction Art requires needles to attack humans and beasts with weaker skin/hide. However for super tough skin/hide, fingers and fists are used. I trained for a hundred years in my Maker's Domain to increase the strength and toughness of my fingers and fists. Now, my fingers and fists can penetrate anything.
After confirming the Acupressure Points of all 200 of the dragons that came out of the teleportation circle, I charged forward. The dragons seeing me charge in also charged forward. Breath attacks came at me from all directions. With a few waves of my hands, I extracted all the essences from the different attacks and stored them into jars. Once I reached the first wave of dragons, I lifted up my forefinger and middle finger and jabbed at the jaws of the dragons. The pressure points at the jaws were pressed and caused those first 10 dragon unable to close their mouths. With a flick of my finger, I shot 10 Therian's Bane pills into their mouths. The 1000 degrees F attacked the dragons from the inside and burned them inside out. 10 dragons down...190 dragons left.
For the Earth Dragons, I don't think fire or intense heat would affect them much so I decided to use another method to kill them. With my Eye of Odin, I peered into the depths of the Earth Dragons and saw their weak points...their death points. I Dragon Leap to the middle of a cluster of Earth Dragons and balled my right hand into a fist. *POW!* *BAM!* *POW!* Death points activated and many Earth Dragons fell and died instantly. I continued this two techniques until all of the dragons were died. I then collected the corpses of the dragons and stored them in my storage ring.

Tired, I headed back. I'm done for the day.
..........
The day is nearly over but some of the dragons are stubbornly attacking outside the city walls. We needed to lure them into the city in order to set off the trap we had installed for them. Now, how do we lure them in? Some tried to taunt them or forcibly pull them in and some tried to attack them and then retreat...hoping for them to pursue. However, these dragons have enough intelligence to not fall for such petty tricks. Sure there are some that do but they can easily blame it on their mentality. Ever since their eyes turned purple, they have entered berserk mode and lost most of their reasoning. They can coordinate with simple commands but most of the time, they'll be rampaging wherever they fly to.
As I pondered about how to lure these berserk dragons into the city, I recalled that these dragons were produced by Morian and listens to Morian's commands. Now, how does Morian transmit his commands to the dragons? Can't be via voice...that's it! He uses his essence to communicate with his subordinates. I reach in my bag and took out a jar of Morian's Essence. Using advanced Essence Manipulation, I controlled the essence so that it could send out a message and sent that message to all of the dragons outside the city. The message told them to attack the enemies within the city. No matter what happens, charging into the city takes priority.
After receiving the fraudulent message, the dragons outside the city walls all stopped what they were doing and charged towards the city. As they entered the borders of the city, I used Meridian Destruction Art and pressed the pressure points of their wings, paralyzing them and causing them to be unable to fly. The dragons - their wings have stopped working - crashed to the ground inside the city. The collapsed dragons tried to stabilize themselves and stand up, but the wave of dragons behind them crashed into them as those dragons' wings were paralyzed as well. This process goes on and on until a giant pile of dragons were formed and all the dragons are inside the city.
"Now is the time, Shadow!" I shouted.

Cursed Forest
This is a high fantasy story with horror elements, featuring the map-maker and half-elf Aspen, and his friend Sekafi, a hyena-like humanoid as they are sent on a mission to map out unknown territory and encounter a monster. Soon they're involved in something larger and more dangerous than they ever wanted. What happens next, you'll find out when you read. This is the first story I'm publishing here on RoyalRoad. I wanted to try this site out since it's more geared towards fantasy. I've been at Wattpad for about 2 years under the same name, but since I'm not writing romance I haven't gotten much steam there. This is my latest story, and it's also published on Wattpad in the book called Short Stories. I wanted to start with something new and unfinished here. I'll try and update at least once every other week, sometimes more often. ~RiisingNovels

The Orb Weaver Chronicles
"The Orb Weaver Chronicles contains several major and unique events that may or may not unknowingly intertwines with one another. The author of these chronicles is unknown, although some have hinted at the symbolism behind its name..." - Year unknown, location unknown 9 February 2022 Update: Welcome to the companion short story compilation of my novel trilogy The Shadow Paradigm. This compilation features prequels, sidequels and sequels to the novel's major plotline, as well as featuring a wide range of characters, new and recurring. Prior knowledge of the novel is not necessary as the Orb Weaver Chronicles' short stories are standalone. Once called The Arkesyyan Chronicles, I've deleted quite a few of its old stories. Due to the new avenue and revision, oriented toward more mystery and film-noir ambience, that I took my stories into, I've removed all aliens and overly sci-fi aspects of the whole TSP lineup, so I've updated the Orb Weaver Chronicles accordingly. I hope you enjoy them, and in time, a revised version will also be updated.
