First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 423

Chapter 423: Heretical God Path

The bottom half was unmistakably serpentine, the scales shimmering in emerald green, while the upper half revealed the perfect form of an ethereal beauty.

Her enchanting face was framed by a cascade of living snakes, writhing gently atop her head, eyes glowing ominously.

Orion, still holding the ancient book, immediately sensed the unnatural power radiating from this terrifying entity.

Turning sharply, his eyes landed briefly upon her form, instantly sending alarm bells shrieking within his mind. His gaze shot downward, heart pounding frantically.

’MEDUSA! Holy Fuck! How the hell is she here?!’ Orion screamed internally, panic rising within him.

He tried desperately to lower his head further, but found his head slowly lifting against his will, compelled by some powerful force.

Around him, the others were already ensnared. Elias, Kale, and even Rokar, Kazran, and other human experts stared blankly, their eyes overtaken by unbridled lust. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Arya, Sylvia, Nyss, Rina, and Fiora were similarly afflicted; their eyes misted with an unnatural yearning, their minds robbed of their rationality.

Slowly, a petrifying curse began climbing their bodies from their feet upward, turning their flesh gradually into cold, unfeeling stone.

Even Orion felt the creeping sensation of petrification moving up his legs. His mind churned frantically; his draconic bloodlines surged in rebellion, golden and fiery glows enveloping him, fiercely resisting the deadly curse.

Yet even with his powerful lineage, Orion barely held on, beads of cold sweat trailing down his temples.

Yet, just as panic began gripping his heart, the demoness paused curiously, her intense gaze suddenly locking onto another figure.

At the center of the cavern stood Magi, alone among the crowd, unaffected. His expression was panicked, certainly, but astonishingly devoid of lustful desire.

He simply stood there, trembling slightly from the sheer pressure, eyes wide with anger as he seemed to have returned to a day of the past.

There was no hunger, no yearning in his gaze; it was as if the concept of lust itself was entirely foreign to him. Yet it also opened the wound that he had deeply buried in his heart, the day when he was completely helpless in front of that being.

The demoness’s mesmerizing emerald eyes narrowed slightly in confusion and curiosity. Her lips curled slowly upward, revealing an alluring yet melancholic smile.

With languid elegance, she slithered forward, her serpent’s lower half gliding gracefully across the cracked stone. Her delicate hands extended slowly, gently lifting Magi’s chin upward.

"Interesssssting," she whispered melodiously, her voice echoing softly with a seductive power. "How issss it you alone can resssissst my curssssse, little mortal?"

Magi gritted his teeth while staring at the demoness in front of him; his eyes remained devoid of lust or fear as they were filled with an unimaginable amount of hatred, yet it was not directed at the demoness but himself, at his own powerlessness that cost him his everything.

He continued staring at her without replying.

The demoness tilted her head in genuine intrigue, her snake-like hair moving hypnotically. "A cursssse? Or perhapssss... a blesssssing?" she mused softly, her gaze deepening with thoughtful curiosity. She never thought it might be due to Magi’s own sheer will, as that was a completely foreign concept to her.

She really thought that only divine intervention could escape from her control, just like the other human was contesting against her.

While Magi stood in front of the terrifying demoness, Orion struggled fiercely against his own petrification.

His human, draconic, and World Tree bloodlines flared brighter, fiercely repelling the creeping stone curse.

His muscles strained, tendons standing out prominently as he fought desperately to regain control of his body. His teeth gritted together tightly, frustration boiling within him.

’Hold on! I can’t end like this!’ Orion roared inwardly, the golden fire around him intensifying, gradually melting away the petrification, inch by excruciating inch.
