I lost my Copy System and awakened a Plundering System

Chapter 110 Battle with HellFire Crow (5)

"So weak..."

An unfamiliar voice echoed, sending shivers through Draco's body.

Draco looked around but saw no one. "Who are you?" he asked cautiously.

"Hmph, I'm right beside you," a voice replied. It was a female voice. Draco turned to his side but saw only the Weapon of Plunder.

Something clicked in his mind. "You can talk?" Draco asked in shock.

The weapon snorted at his words, clearly unimpressed. Draco was stunned by this discovery. He wondered why the weapon had never spoken before and why Xylara had never mentioned it. The situation was baffling.

"Hmph, you're too weak to unlock my true strength. Why would I bother talking to you?" the weapon snorted again, making Draco inwardly smile bitterly.

"If they weren't kicking your ass, I wouldn't have bothered either. You going back to level 0 only drags me down," she continued.

Each of her words felt like a jab, making Draco cough awkwardly. Though her words stung, he knew they were true.

"I'll help you just this once. How dare that crow try to control me!" the weapon sneered.

All this conversation happened in Draco's mind. Though it seemed like minutes had passed, in the outside world, not even a full minute had gone by.

The HellFire Crow grew increasingly dissatisfied that the weapon hadn't left Draco. She decided to eliminate him and take the weapon for herself.

As the crow moved, the Weapon of Plunder began to radiate light. The brilliance of the glow drew Lyraea and Ivy out of the nest. The crow, confused by this sudden development, hesitated. Remembering what had happened earlier, she kept her distance.

Draco was equally puzzled by the weapon's actions. It had promised to help, but it hadn't explained how. He couldn't understand why it had drawn Lyraea and Ivy into the fray.

Lyraea and Ivy, too, were confused by the light. Although they knew the weapon belonged to Draco, they remained on guard. Seeing Draco's bewilderment only deepened their concern.

"You two..." an unfamiliar voice echoed in their minds.

...

"Are you sure about this?" Lyraea's voice sounded.

"Yes," the Weapon of Plunder replied.

"If this will help darling avoid becoming a slave to that crow, I'll gladly do it," Ivy said with determination.

"Me too. I have no problem with this," Lyraea chuckled softly.

"Then let's begin."

ROAR! CHIRP!

Lyraea and Ivy transformed into their true forms, letting out powerful cries.

The Weapon of Plunder began radiating intense light.

Ding!

As the Weapon of Plunder glowed, Lyraea and Ivy were pulled toward it. A black hole appeared, swallowing them whole.

Draco was astonished. A feeling of unease stirred in his heart.

While he was deep in thought, the Weapon of Plunder flew toward him, aiming directly for his heart. Draco stared at it, sensing no killing intent. Trusting his instincts, he allowed it to do as it wished.

The Weapon of Plunder entered Draco's heart, yet no blood spilled. A brilliant light erupted as the weapon began to disintegrate.

The HellFire Crow observed this with growing seriousness. She could feel Draco's power increasing, leaving her to wonder what kind of transformation was taking place.

She hesitated to attack directly but eventually cawed loudly, unleashing a barrage of black flames toward where she believed Draco might be. Then she paused, expecting her attack to find its mark.

But what she anticipated never happened.

The light faded, revealing what lay within.

A piercing, silvery dragon-like helmet with the horns of a dragon adorned Draco's head. His armor was silver in color yet emanated flames, while his wings resembled those of a phoenix, covered in dragon scales. His hands were like the claws of a dragon but carried the sharpness of a phoenix.

His body radiated immense power, glowing with flames, as he let out a phoenix cry and a dragon roar. Each piece of his armor bore small sculptures of a silver dragon and a red-and-blue phoenix.

With every breath, dragon roars and phoenix cries resounded. In his hands was a heavy sword with a dragon head forming its hilt and a blade made of phoenix feathers.

His aura alone made the black crow shiver in fear. She could sense an ancestral power in Draco's form, her entire body screaming of imminent danger. For the first time, she felt so close to death.

"Finish this battle quickly," Draco heard the faint voice of the Weapon of Plunder. It sounded weak.

He called out to it, but there was no response, making him worry.

"Darling," he suddenly heard Ivy's voice, startling him.

"Where are you two?" he asked, looking around.

"We're inside your weapon. You can't see us, but we can see everything you see," Lyraea explained.

Draco was amazed by this revelation. He didn't know how the Weapon of Plunder had accomplished such a feat, but it felt incredibly powerful.

He could feel something supplementing his diminishing Originat. It was time to finish this. He set his gaze on the HellFire Crow.

The black crow was stunned to see Draco's armor undamaged—not even a scorch mark marred its surface. When Draco's piercing gaze locked onto her, she shivered like prey before a predator.

"Meteor Descent."

Multiple meteors rained down toward the crow, who quickly used her domain to defend herself. The domain strained to stop the meteors, but the gravitational force pressed hard against it, causing the meteors to break through and slam her into the ground.

"Ice Zero."

Before the crow could recover, she felt a freezing power seizing her entire body and veins. She fought against the freezing with her flames, but it was not easy to dispel.

After eliminating part of the ice, she flew into the air, only to see five large, familiar dragons waiting for her.

"Five Element Dragon Spell."

The five dragons began devouring each other, merging not into a five-headed dragon but a single, five-colored dragon with one head.

The massive dragon roared and charged at the crow. Injured and struggling, the crow relied on her domain to survive the onslaught. Without it, she might have already been defeated.

Desperate, the HellFire Crow used her black fan to strike. With a slash, the dragon's body suffered a deep gash, Originat pouring out of the wound. However, the dragon plundered Originat to heal itself and restore the injury.

The battle raged on. The five-colored dragon began to weaken, but the crow was also at her limit, her body riddled with numerous injuries.

ROAR!

A tragic roar echoed as the five-colored dragon dispersed, leaving the black crow gasping for breath. Before she could even move...

BOOM!

The remnant Originat of the dragon exploded, sending the crow crashing to the ground. Dazed and disoriented from the impact, she struggled to stand.

Draco observed the scene. Although he hadn't directly attacked, the techniques used had drained most of his Originat. Lyraea had cast Meteor Descent, Ivy had used Ice Zero, and Draco himself had unleashed the Five Element Dragon Spell.

This wasn't a one-on-one battle—it was three as one against one. Draco knew he still had one more skill to use, but his depleted Originat made him hesitate.

"Let's end this," Draco said to Lyraea and Ivy, who both agreed.

Following his instincts, Draco muttered, "Dragon-Phoenix Form: Final Strike."

Everyone felt a massive influx of Originat gathering. The HellFire Crow, who had managed to rise into the air again, felt her entire body tremble with fear. Sensing the impending danger, she desperately searched for a means of escape...
