Fantasy Dungeon Builder's Harem

Lana Fulmine dropped off Terra on the back of the dragon by Baaghi and Bjorni. The dragon breathed a large swath of acid, cashing Morana and Paanee. The lightning sprite's heart tore as she took off back into the air, watching the monster girls dying.

Vilkas jumped up on the dragon's back, the lightning wolf rushed up the dragon's back to join the three other monster girls. Lana Fulmine hoped they could do something. She felt so useless as she fired a blast of lightning that did nothing.

Feya swung her wand, striking the dragon near the eye in a beam of light. The beast roared and turned so fast. Her head snapped out. The fairy flapped her wings. They beat as she struggled to change her direction.

The jaws snapped down on her, crushing her in a burst of sparks.

"What do we do, Leo?" she cried as he fired a blast of lightning at the dragon.

It crackled across her hide.

"I don't know," he said and soared off to the right.

Esclava whirled in, burning hot. The dragon turned to face the firewhirl and breathed. Acid slammed into the flaming tornado. The acidic breath swirled around with the burning vortex. They washed together.

"Metal missiles fly, let the spikes of Lord Nabu pierce!"

Metal stakes struck the dragon's head and neck, piercing through the scales as she kept breathing. The bitch didn't care about the damage they took. She guarded the king's ruined pavilion. Esclava's firewhirl turned, the acid choking off the flames.

The fire went out.

"No!" Leo cried.

Another monster girl dead.

Despair weighed down on Lana Fulmine.

Kassie trembled as she moved with Halia through the ruins. The dragon loomed over them. The halfling mage clutched at her amulet. She had to do something. The dragon was murdering them. Blood dripped from her muzzle.

She could be hurt.

Kassie focused on that. She could be hurt. "Izi Zum!"

A blast of fire burst from Kassie and hurtled through the air. It smote the dragon in the head. The flames rippled over her scales. The dragon snarled, her head flinching. Hope soared in Kassie seeing the wounds on the dragon.

"She's getting weakened," Kassie said.

"Hit her again," Halia said, holding her humming blade.

"Izi Zum!"

The second burst of fire hit near the jaw. The dragon roared and breathed acid at Lord Leo. He soared through the sky, dodging the attack. The dragon shifted her stance. The ground shook with her every step.

"Izi Zum!"

Her flames struck the dragon in the nose. Fire curled around her nostrils. Kassie gripped her amulet as the dragon snapped her jaws shut. Her wings folded in, her eyes scanning the ground. Fear squeezed about Kassie's heart.

The dragon spotted them. Eyes full of rage and contempt stared at the halfling.

"Izi Zum!"

The dragon's watery breath burst from her mouth, a flood of acid surging right for Kassie and Halia. The mage stared at her death. A calm fell on her. She fought for Lord Leo, the savior of her people.

"Lady Sherida, shield us from our enemies!"

The prayer burst from Halia's mouth as she stepped up before Kassie and pointed her blessed blade at the incoming acid. Light burst around them. A brilliance that engulfed Halia and Kassie. Her faith manifested in radiance.

The acid engulfed the light. It sizzled against the purity of Halia's belief. She knew Lord Leo was the way. He was the hope for this world. Every sinew in her flesh, every drop of blood in her veins, every breath in her lungs had faith in him. He would prevail.

Her light armored them. Protected them. She stood strong. Resolute beneath it. She would not waver. The dragon would not crush her belief. They would win. The roaring died down. The world sizzled around them. The acidic reek stung her nose.

The light died down to reveal them on an island, puddles of acid sinking into the ground, devouring it as melted tents, stakes of wood, ropes, and the bodies. Kassie stepped up beside Halia, looking around at the destruction then back at the monster.

"What can we do against her?" Kassie asked. "Besides annoy her."

"Believe in Leo!" Halia said, pointing at him soaring through the sky. A boulder crashed into the dragon's head, bursting into stone. She roared in fury. "Believe, Kassie!"

"Come on!" His mother cried.

"No!" Siwang fought against his mother's pull. He stared at the fight as she dragged him towards the tunnel that led to the safety of Leo's dungeon. "I have to fight!"

"You can't!" she cried.

The dragon's acidic breath hurtled at Halia and Kassie. Light burst from the paladin a moment before the torrent engulfed them. The dissolving liquid splashed across the ground and washed towards them.

"You're not strong enough!" Xiongbu cried.

The flood rushed towards them. Siwang relented, letting his mother pull him down into the dungeon. Embarrassment flushed through him as they fled. He had to get stronger. He had to become Leo's equal. There was no choice at all.

He was useless.

A parasite until he could become stronger.

Acid washed down the stairs of the dungeon, dissolving the stone. Siwang watched it drip closer, smoke rising. He needed power. Leo sheltered him too much. His hands balled into fists. "Next time," he whispered. "Next time, I'll stand with you."

If there was a next time. How could Leo defeat this monster?​
