I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Maybe it was because of the heavy rain that they didn't attack her right away.

The Aarakocra always use their flying abilities as an advantage when attacking their enemies. At least that's what Aurdis heard.

Now that the rain had stopped, they could freely use their wings. But Aurdis who can't fly and alone has to suffer a disadvantage.

Aurdis immediately spurred Star to run fast. But no matter how fast Star is, he's not a Unicorn.

Especially now that they were fighting the Aarakocra gang of five.

The flying Aarakocras were amused by Aurdis's desperate attempt. They immediately flapped their wings to chase after her.

Two of the Aarakocra were holding bows. They immediately raised their bows and aimed at Aurdis.

*SHUUUT!*

*SHUUUT!*

Two arrows shot towards Aurdis. She realized that the arrow was coming, so Aurdis bowed her head slightly.

*SRAAT!*

An arrow manages to scratch past Aurdis' right cheek. Blood dripped from the scratch.

Aurdis felt a stinging pain on her cheek. But she could only grimace as she continued to urge Star.

The Aarakocras continued to shoot arrows and small fireballs at Aurdis.

They seemed to just want to play with her and hurt her slowly.

Aurdis gritted her teeth. '(Birdman bastard!)'

Aurdis did not think that she would meet the enemy so quickly.

She thought it was only when she passed the Grayfog Mountains that she would run into trouble.

She didn't know what happened to them. Why are these Aarakocra even going this far and targeting her?

As far as Aurdis's understanding of the half-bird and half-human creatures, they weren't creatures who would become bandits and rob travelers.

So why did they wander around and suddenly attack her?

'Ah, that question doesn't matter now!'

Aurdis didn't need to know their reasons. What she had to do now was how to get away from them.

However, escape will be very difficult because they can fly. And using Magic to camouflage will use quite a lot of Magic energy.

Actually, attacking them would use less energy. So it didn't take long for Aurdis to come to a decision.

However, she still wanted to find something to make her magic stronger and more efficient.

'There it is!'

Aurdis found a small river up ahead. She spurred Star even harder.

Several arrows hit her back but none could penetrate the coat she was wearing.

Aurdis stretched her arms forward. A white glow came out of the ring she was wearing.

"(Get ready! She wants to do something!)" the leader of the Aarakocra warned his four men.

The water in the small river in front of Aurdis started to rise. Like being pulled up by an invisible force.

Then spears created from condensed water were formed.

The Magic in Aurdis' ring blew a cold wind that turned the water into ice.

Aurdis immediately waved her hand toward the Aarakocras.

*SYUUUT!*

*SYUUUT!*

*SYUUUT!*

...

At least a dozen one meter long If ice spears shot toward the Aarakocras.

Aurdis who seemed to do that without pause made the Aarakocra surprised.

They frantically scrambled to dodge the ice spears. The Aarakocra leader shouted something. Then they dived simultaneously towards Aurdis after dodging the ice spears.

Swords and spears were drawn in their hands. Aurdis was never an expert in close combat. But that didn't mean she would be in trouble if she just faced this Aarakocras.

Two bracelets on each of her hands glowed. The light that came out indicated that Aurdis was weaving her Magic into the shape she wanted.

Everything in nature has its own energy. Elves also learn to use energy from nature so that they can use their Magic abilities more efficiently and effectively.

The water in the river contains its own energy. What Aurdis doing now was, she was pouring some of her Magic energy into manipulating the energy in the water, and shaping it into her will.

That way, she doesn't have to spend a lot of Magic energy.

The water in the river rose into the air like a tidal wave. After that, the water droplets began to separate themselves.

The water droplets then form small spears that are almost as small as a needle.

Aurdis waved her hand and hundreds of small spears shot toward the Aarakocra.

Realizing the attack coming their way, the leader of Aarakocra ordered his men to stop.

He stretched his arms forward. An orange magic shield appeared in front of the group of Aarakocras.

The small spears that Aurdis sent hit the magic shield and split into water splashes that fell to the ground.

'Tch, to think they could use Magic like that.'

Aurdis was a bit surprised and annoyed to see the Magic Shield that appeared.

She had heard that Aarakocra could also use Magic. But based on what she heard, the half-bird humans couldn't create magic that was bigger than a small fireball, or a bonfire.

Turns out, what Aurdis has heard so far is not necessarily true.

Aurdis could see that Aarakocra who created the Magic shield was smiling.

When they smiled, the back end of their beak slightly turned to create a smiling expression.

"(Encircle her from every direction!)" the leader of Aarakocra gave the order.

Then the Aarakocras flew again and scattered around Aurdis. Forming a circle that traps her.

Aurdis glanced around. The Aarakocra spoke to each other in their bird language. Often also interspersed with laughter that sounded strange to Aurdis' ears.

The Aarakocra leader who was in front of Aurdis stretched his sword to point at Aurdis.

He said something that Aurdis didn't understand. But at least Aurdis knew that what he was saying was something like, 'You're going to die soon, or, 'You're going to meet your end here'. All of that, for Aurdis, is not important.

She wasn't worried at all. Because basically, she was far more superior than all these Aarakocras.
