NOVEL WEB Chapter 1390: Effects
Rain teleported instead of crashing against the glass around the structure and the net that was absorbing the solar energy as well… as soon as he reached the other side, he felt the temperature increasing as he approached that star. The heat was intense, and Rain could feel something wrong with his skin… it could be radiation, but he didn't have time to worry about that.
Hopefully, the shadow covering his body would protect him.
As soon as the solar dragons saw Rain, they opened their mouths and then fired beams of fire toward him. Rain flew to the sides to avoid them, but he furrowed his eyebrows at their speed… it could be compared to the speed of Loar when he used light speed technique.
"This could be a problem…" Rain thought.
The solar dragons kept firing the same attack, but Rain dodged them. When he was about to teleport to attack, the monsters suddenly raised their heads and then swung them down while firing massive fire meteors that flew even faster than the fire beams.
Rain flew to the side, but two projectiles hit each other and exploded. Before he could react, the air crackled with intense heat, and a blinding light erupted from the center of the conflict.
In an instant, a massive explosion erupted, expanding outward with incredible force. It seemed as though a temporary sun had appeared in the midst of the chaos, its brilliance illuminating the surrounding space with blinding intensity. The shockwave rippled through the void, engulfing everything in its path.
For a moment, it seemed as though Rain had been consumed by the searing blast. His form disappeared amidst the overwhelming radiance lost within the heart of the explosion.
But then, just as suddenly as it had appeared, the explosion began to dissipate. The intense light dimmed, and the overwhelming heat gradually subsided. And there, at the epicenter of the blast, Rain emerged unscathed.
"That was dangerous," Rain thought.
Rain used the rain technique around himself and fought back the flames, but he still felt his skin acting up… it was definitely thanks to the radiation. For now, his body is resisting, but if he gets exposed to more fire attacks of that level that also emit radiation like the sun… he will be in a bind.
The five solar dragons stopped approaching and soon surrounded Rain. Their eyes were like spheres in flames as well, and while they looked different than the dragons from Earth, Rain still could see a high level of intelligence in them.
"They look like meteor dragons… So shall I use the patience path against them?" Rain thought. "Maybe, like the dragon god, they have more than the power of a single sin…"
While Rain was thinking about what he should do, the enemies shot more fire meteors, but not toward him. They fired it around and then made them explode… the flames expanded, and soon they began to connect together in order to create a prison of flames… they should know that Rain could teleport, so that was basically useless, but Rain had a feeling that they created that prison with that in mind.
As the fiery explosion ended, Rain braced himself for the inevitable onslaught. The solar dragons, their eyes ablaze with fierce determination, flew toward him with alarming speed, their colossal forms casting long shadows against the backdrop of the blazing inferno.
With a swift motion, they slashed their solar claws at Rain, their movements fluid and precise. Reacting swiftly, Rain summoned the ominous sword, its dark blade shimmering with ominous energy, and intercepted the first attack.
But as the clash of titanic forces reverberated through the air, Rain felt a surge of intense heat coursing through his body. The impact of the attack sent shockwaves rippling through his form, and a searing heat enveloped him, threatening to overwhelm his senses.
Despite his best efforts to maintain his composure, Rain could feel his mind growing foggy, his thoughts becoming muddled and disjointed. The oppressive heat bore down upon him, sapping his strength and resolve with each passing moment.
"Wrath… and gluttony, huh?" Rain thought. "Makes sense."
When the next dragon approached, Rain blocked the attack with his sword as he was pushed backward, but soon he put his hands together while holding the weapon… in the next moment, the creature had its head bombarded by the rain technique… dark water droplets almost evaporated, but they still hit the head of the monster and using that short window of time, Rain sliced the ominous sword on the neck of the monster from one end to the other… Before long, the head of the creature was beheaded, and then the beast exploded.

As the monstrous creature's head was severed from its body, a deafening roar echoed through the fiery prison. In a blinding flash of light, the dragon's form erupted into a cataclysmic explosion that consumed the entirety of the cage in a raging inferno.
The explosion expanded with ferocious intensity, engulfing even the other solar dragons in its searing embrace. Flames danced and roared as they licked at the confines of the prison, devouring everything in their path with unrelenting fury.
Yet, amidst the chaos and destruction, Rain remained untouched by the devastating blast. Though his body glowed with an intense red hue from the heat, and his hair flickered with flames, he emerged unscathed from the explosion's fiery wrath once again.
As the flames gradually subsided, revealing the scorched remnants of the once-imposing prison. Despite the ordeal he had just endured, he remained resolute in his determination to press onward and overcome whatever challenges lay ahead.
"My appearance looks fine, thanks to the shadow of Elisabetha's anger… but my health decreased by thirty percent… it doesn't look like the power of the explosion will weaken if I move away," Rain thought.
While the other dragons were surprised by Rain's survival, they didn't have any intention of letting him think of what he should do… they soon charged again toward him.
