Seeing a grand ball of bazooka descending upon them, the soldiers and knights who were already on their knees started to quiver in despair.
Countless emotions of sadness and agony filled their hearts.
So have their sweethearts waiting for them, so have their parents, children, and wife looking at the road of their return.
All of them wanted to return in full glory but the mont they entered here, they knew this place was going to be their doom.
The little bit of hope that blood in their heart seeing their General lead was crushed again noticing the huge fireball that lit the whole sky.
From the mont The Dragon opened its jaw, they knew they were done.
The overwhelming power was too much for the General to take down.
"We are done."
"There is no path ahead of us."
"If there is a next life, I wish I can be under soone like Sir Cladoc."
"Even if we die, let's die bravely."
"Don't lose your hope, soldiers. Our sacrifice wouldn't be in vain. When we fall, there will be soone to hold our fall."
"Our death wouldn't be aningless."
The soldiers cheered bracing themselves.
At that ti, a soldier's shout drew everyone's attention.
"Look at that!"
Everyone's attention was drawn to the back of the person who rushed forward instead of retreating.
Horror and shock dyed their vision.
"Sir Cladoc."
"General!"
The soldier and knight's eyes beca moist seeing the brave back of the man bracing through the dense energy.
"Hail General Cladoc!''
"Hail General Cladoc!"
"Sir, you can do it!!"
Although there was no hope, still they cheered for the person who earned their utmost respect.
At the next mont, a part of the bazooka was cut which instead of falling on them, hit the demon army on the other side and the figure taking a giant leap appeared directly in front of Dragon.
...…...
In front of the huge dragon with a body of over 20 ters in height and around 50 ters in length, Lucas stood unfazed by his sharp stares.
Lucas' face, which bead brightly as he faced the Black Dragon, began to take on a completely red colour like blood.
Seeing a mask of blood appearing over the human, Asuka who shuddered at the familiar yet horrifying aura coming from him, roared to suppress his fear and a few thousand flas mixed with his breath shot at Lucas.
The attacks were countless tis weaker than before. Rather than quality, it focused on quantity that blocked Lucas' path of dodging.
"I have been trying and practicing my telekinesis power in this place. It had been polished a bit. This battle would surely furnish my knowledge."
Lucas walked through the barrage of flas and flicked his wrists casually to change the direction of the flas with the use of telekinetic power and for those which he couldn't avoid, Lucas cut them down.
A few hours ago, he wasn't able to do it but now he can, which was a bit astonishing.
A dense layer of man-enveloped fla and its trajectory deviated, startling Asuka and making him wonder if his aim was off.
Seeing Lucas cutting down the pouring flas easily, Asuka's eyes twitched and as he blinked his eyes, a new image of Lucas cutting the space between the two appeared right in front of him.
At the sa ti, Lucas' sword contained an extrely concentrated crimson aura that was shot towards Dragon heads.
In response, Asuka created a magical barrier in front of him.
With an ensuing clash, the space was ripped apart and due to the aftermath of the collision, the parts of the canyon started cracking and falling.
[Heat Burst]
Attacks containing a mass of condensed heat energy poured towards Lucas.
Swoosh!Swoosh!
Lucas, who was slowly getting used to his new body, waved his hand creating an encroachnt of Mana Devour that swallowed up the whole attack and unfolded in a more improved form that was thrown at Asuka.
BOOOM!
The attacks burst before Asuka, creating a fiery cloud before it.
Lucas, who dug into the gap that was created by that, threw his sword towards the Dragon's eye.
At the sa ti, the blacked space around it was twisted by mana as it shot like a missile towards it.
Even though the sword carried the might to kill an 8-Star in an instant, Asuka managed to block the sword by creating a hundred layers of protection condensed in a small area in front of the pupil.
The extent of its control was terrifying.
"If only this body was at Master or could use a full sword qi, I might have pierced it.''
After managing to block the attack, Asuka imdiately scattered the power and began to encroach on the space occupied by Lucas.
The dragon knew very well how important it is to make space around him for the battle to allow its huge body to attack with maximum force.
At the sa ti, countless condensed masses of mana that were created in the surrounding atmosphere lted, forming a large number of magic circles in the air that shot spells at Lucas to crush him.
BAAM!BAAM!
Lucas broke through the shackles by moving around leaving afterimages and punching in the air, shooting a devastating mass of compressed pressure which on touching the spell digs into it and explodes it.
A terrifying battle of attrition began between the two.
No one knew how many tis they attacked each other like that.
Lucas used the small body to its advantage, going in a circle and not giving the Dragon a chance to land a hit properly.
At the sa ti, he harassed Asuka by throwing rocks and boulders at him. However, all of them were useless as most of them couldn't even scratch Asuka.
'This guy.'
A strange look appeared in the eyes of Asuka who was receiving Lucas' sword.
The crimson energy used by the knight in front of him for so reason struck his heart.
'That crimson energy was the power of that being who had driven everyone into the corner.'
However...
'Still weak.'
'No, to be precise it wasn't complete. Sothing is missing in the foreign powers which makes it hard to identify.'
The never-ending despair and suffocating pressure that he had felt when he faced it in the past was incomparable to this.
But the mont the eyes of the human looked at him, strangely it made him uncomfortable.
If Dragon Breath was used repeatedly, this human death was set in stone but in doing this he may wipe out his troops.
This might leave a dark stain on its na.
It was quite risky for Lucas to provoke Dragon pride to make The Dragon consider thousands of tis before it could unleash its breath unless it wanted to kill his army.
Fortunately, the bet paid off.
'He must have suffered internally when he reflected the breath I had shot a while ago.'
'Yeah, there is no way you will be safe after taking my breath. Yeah, that's it. This is the thing that's giving an uncomfortable feeling.'
The joy in his eyes brightens seeing wounds piling up on Lucas' body.
"How about giving up?''
A loud heavy voice escaped from Asuka.
"As you know the difference between you and is clear. Besides, your body is on the verge of destruction."
The dragon's eyes curved and he smiled.
"Your defeat has been decided. If you give up, I will kill you painlessly and spread a few good words on your na for the valour you have shown here."
BAAM!BAAM!
The sound of attacks pouring on Lucas didn't stop, rather they intensified.
"I know!"
At that ti, Lucas's eyes which were facing the apocalyptic dragon's eyes began to bend into a crescent shape and a satisfied expression appeared over his face.
Lucas was fully aware of it.
He knew he couldn't defeat the Black Dragon alone and that he was not in a normal state of his body.
He is moving by swallowing the blood that is coming up to his throat but that doesn't change anything.
Because the result had been decided.
"But do you think you will win this battle?" Lucas burst into laughter.
Because he is here.
"What?"
The Black Dragon, who felt an ominous sensation from Lucas's laughter, asked with a questionable voice.
"Your opponent was never from the beginning."
It was the mont when Lucas, who had a deeper smile, responded with a cold voice, everything fell into silence.
No light, no sound.
And there was no foreshadowing.
The huge body of Black Dragon Asuka collided with sothing that was slashed from the sky at an oblique angle, bounced off, crashing onto the ground.
Soon after a shockwave bursts out belatedly.
A lightening fiercer than heavenly tribulation began to burn down the fallen body of the dragon.
BOOOM!BOOM!BOOM!
Amidst the fierce flas and the scream of a Dragon, an existence walked out slowly.
A man who spread his overwhelming presence in all directions while wearing a Vestige armour that was shining with lightning flickers all over his body.
Lucas didn't know him but he gave him a familiar feeling as if he knew him quite well
As if eting an old friend, Lucas murmured, staring at the armoured man.
"You ca sooner than I thought."
It was then loud cries and cheers erupted for the man who was claid as the strongest existence of the current Era.
