Illusion Attribute Magic was not a magic that originated from Kritias, although illusions could still be created through Water and Light Attribute magic, the mages that could employ them successfully were incredibly few, making it a vastly unique and new type of magic, and one of Kireina's specializations.

Since she was reborn in Genesis as a Caterpillar that she was given such power the moment she reached her third stage as a Dark Moon Illusion Butterfly, acquiring the power to generate illusions and manipulate shadows.

In Genesis, the development of Magic is simply outstanding compared to Kritias, to the point that new types of magic surge one after another, divergent of the original elements, or completely new concept brought by the vast amount of Gods that exist in such a world.

Illusion Attribute Magic, however, was considered rare even in Genesis, where Kireina used it as one of her strongest weapons to fight against the constant threats that endangered her life and that of her beloved ones.

Using the Level 1 Spell, 'Illusory Screen' Kireina was able to manipulate the screen to show whatever she desired, as long as it was possible within the limits of the spell itself.

In a mere instant, she created the illusion that Aqua had suddenly disappeared from the Dragon's arm, alarming him of the strangeness of the situation, but provoking him to fire his breath elsewhere, effectively protecting Aqua from a strong attack without even employing an actual barrier.

In a world where people were even less familiar with Illusion Magic, even a being as strong as a Rank 12 Ancient Earth Dragon King could be fooled with a level 1 Illusion Attribute Spell.

"Oh, is that Kireina's special magic?

" asked Charlotte, who prepared an attack while walking around the ceiling.

"Illusion Magic looks pretty broken already…!

" said Veronica, rushing towards the dragon as she began to release enormous punches over the creature's hard scales, which even managed to fend off her colossal strength!

"Ngh! Mere tricks won't work on me!

" roared the dragon, fighting against Veronica with all he had, while fending off the threats around himself with his powerful and masterful use of magic.

Kireina smiled devilishly, as she conjured more and more Illusory Screens all around the dragon, confusing him where exactly where his foes, as he received their attacks continuously from all sides.

Ervas decided to practice his newer Skills, disregarding the possibility of being able to finish this off quicker with his strongest attacks.

Freezing flames of the underworld and fiery breath combined together into a vortex of red and blue, slowly melting off the scales around the dragon.

"Graahh! You pathetic excuse of a dragon!

" roared Grakgna, enraged at last.

Grakgna roared in anger, releasing a powerful Magical Aura charged with Earth Attribute, the shockwave quickly made the Illusory Screens dissipate, as even Aqua leaped out of his arm in alarm.

"Oh no! …Anyways, Chaos Bullets!

" said Kireina, cynically pretending to be surprised by Grakgna's performance as she released dozens of dark bullets that contained black, purple, and crimson colors constantly twisting together in a chaotic display, hitting Grakgna from all sides and causing him severe damage on his scales, even penetrating his flesh and exploding into bloody wounds!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Divine Dragon Scales!

" said Grakgna, activating his Divine Dragon Scale Skill alongside his Shield Technique, covering himself with a new, freshly-made set of even stronger scales, which were able to even able to resist Kireina's otherworldly magic!

"Not even Chaos Attribute, huh?

" said Kireina.

Chaos Attribute Magic could be said to be one of Kireina's newest types of magic, which she seems to always have the affinity for but only recently acquired the magic for and then trained it until it awakened. This clone of hers inherited such magic skill but weakened and nerfed back to Level 1.

Chaos Attribute was another 'alien' attribute that did not truly exist (or was discovered) in Kritias, even though Kireina had said that its opposite, Order Attribute Magic had already been discovered, as the moment she descended to Kritias that she could feel her polar opposite exist far away within the skies… the gods such as Bestellen and his subordinate gods who wielded a super-advanced form of light magic named order magic.

Grakgna roared once more, as his claws grew sharper and he enveloped his body into a magical aura! Ervas and Veronica noticed as his speed stat began to increase exponentially while using large quantities of Mana!

"Earth-shattering Dragon King Slash!

"

Grakgna used leaped out of the abyssal hole completely, jumping over the ground and slashing countless times over Veronica, who defended with her enormous body, the dragon's claws even pierced through her hard armor, disregarding the fact that she had even used Kelsus Dark Scales to evolve its material!

"Maybe I should actually just use it!

" said Veronica, as she began to fill her entire body with Anir's Bone Marrows and covering herself in dark scales, while also releasing a Phantasmagoric Aura and an Abyssal and spectral soul, alongside this, she began to produce fierce electric power, covering her entirely as her speed increased despite her ridiculous size.

"GRAAA!

"

Grakgna greeted her with a loud roar, clashing against Veronica's enormous demonic appearance, enormous punches and slashes could be heard all across the gigantic cave, as the two behemoths clashed against each other!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Well, I've always wondered what I can do with Beast Transformation and my new Dragon Bloodline…

" said Ervas, activating Beast Transformation while covering himself in bones and also the newly raise Undead Knochen, who assisted him with his bones.

Flash!

Ervas body began to grow out of proportion, resembling a monstrous dragon made of bones stuck together one after another, alongside fur growing from different areas, resembling a decaying zombie dragon whose crimson eyes flashed with an eerie crimson gleam.

Ervas on his new form was around forty meters tall, quite less than the Grakgna, but only a bit less than Veronica, jumping over Grakgna's torso, he charged an enormous breath attack of blue and red flames while employing his new size, while using his bony claws to slash and tear apart the scales and flesh of the dragon!

Boom!

The breath attack hit, but Grakgna protected himself with a barrier of earth magic that seemed to have been made entirely out of rock scales.

Grakgna retaliated quickly, using his enormous tail as a spear, to the point of even using the Spear technique with it, releasing countless impaling attacks over Ervas large body!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ervas received several ones, while also blocking many ones with his Specter Telekinesis Barrier and Shields, but he was clearly not as physically strong as Veronica to go one on one against Grakgna, deciding to remain a few steps back while firing his breath attack and the enormous Telekinetic Cannons from his awakened No-Attribute Magic Skill.

Gaia on the other side was employing her spells around the battlefield, healing the wounded while enhancing Ervas stats with her buffing spells which had increased in quantity after Ervas acquired Pseudo Life Attribute Magic.

"Maybe we should get a bit more intense there!

"

Veronica on the other side was bored of using her fist, now generating countless blades, javelins, and axes all over her body, and using combined techniques of all these weapons with her awakened unarmed fighting technique for an even greater and penetrating damage, shattering the dragon's magic barrier and divine scales, and directly grinding away his flesh!

By enhancing her attacks with her Abyssal soul, Veronica was able to break through the barriers and even slightly pierce the dragon's soul, causing him severe pain that he had never felt before.

"Nnngguuoooohh…! GRAAA…!

"

The dragon roared in pain as his body was being overwhelmed, but he employed his momentary speed boost to evade Veronica's onslaught and appear behind her!

"Not going to work, bud,

" said Veronica, as her back suddenly changed in shape, generating monstrous claws and jaws, biting on the dragon's enormous body while releasing countless attacks of darkness, light, and thunder from Shade, and Ozgeth!

However, Grakgna evaded some while tanking others and quickly healing himself with his outstanding regeneration ability, becoming more of a problem than the pair of split souls had originally imagined. Of course, he was the ruler of the dungeon and a monster as high as Rank 12, he was a strong monster deserving of admiration.

"Legion, Pete, Cthulhu, Nyar, Shoggoth, Kireina!

" said Ervas, commanding his Ghosts Legion and Pete to generate blasts of elemental damage from Legion and Thunderbolt from Pete, while his summoned creatures combined their powers into a strong wave of mental attack!

Kireina of course was also able to do the same as her companions, as she had a powerful and grotesque mind and soul, which coupled with her Illusion magic give her the ability to employ what she named as a Mind Attack Spell, combining it with the aliens for an even greater result.

Boom! Boom!

Legion and Pete's attacks hit directly into the dragon, impacting his limbs and tearing down the scales and skin, revealing the fresh and tender flesh below.

"Nngh…! Graa!

"

Grakgna was being hit from all sides, but he resisted as he continued fighting, despite beginning to feel as if his speed was not being as effective as he had thought, something was slowing him down…

Above him, in the ceiling, Charlotte was conjuring the Time Attribute Spell 'Slowdown' constantly, while also using her Cursed Nine Eyes to cause direct damage into the Dragon's HP and even increasing his Mana Consumption!

Despite not moving much, she was adding a lot to the fight! And even more now, as she finally finished generating what she was making, a large sphere of purple poison!

Flash!

The enormous sphere of poison flew over Grakgna's face, pouring inside of his eyes and mouth, causing severe irritation and pain!

Splash!
