Ihor Continent, North of the United Nations of Prayn Terish
When Zaldidraax finally arrived north of the United Nations of Prayn Terish, he started instantly searching for the mana signatures of the people of the Calamity Church. Because the people of the Calamity Church didn't really bother to guide their aura, not to ntion their mana signatures contained unmistakable Negative Aura.
And soon located their position, as that was a relatively effortless thing for him to do. For Zaldidraax, it was not a problem locating Khordrath, as instantly, the Red Dragon localized his enemies and went to them.
Zaldidraax flapped his wings as he flew more to the northern direction, where he sensed the people from the Calamity Church carrying out so obscure rituals in worship of their Evil Gods.
Just as he was flying towards that place, he slled the familiar creatures of the Abyss. The sll of the creatures of the Abyss was sothing that the Zaldidraax would never mistake for sothing else, as the Abyss left a particular touch on anything that ca into contact with the Abyssal miasma.
"So he summoned so Fiends from the Abyss..."
Zaldidraax muttered as he continued in his flight, noticing humans running here and there as they were running and transporting so equipnt and weapons, probably planning to attack sothing or soone.
Fiends from the Abyss was never a good sign. In truth, one could say that anything that originated from the Abyss was always a problem; only madn would summon creatures from the Abyss en masse, like Calamity Church or Demon Tribes would summon them.
Though the Red Dragon would probably eat them as his snack, the real problem was that they were extrely nurous, and they would also lower the entire number of souls he could obtain during his mission because the Fiends were feeding on them.
***
On the top of a skyscraper in so random city in the United Nations of Prayn Terish, High Priest Khordrats was sitting as he enjoyed cries of agony and pain that were heard across the entire city, as the Legendary Level Fiends of the Abyss were slaughtering and torturing people together with the priests of the Calamity Church.
The entire city was dood to suffer the cruel fate of anything that the people of the Calamity Church brought to them because only dread and despair awaited those who were t with the tender care of the Calamity Church.
"He is already here... damm, that crazy lizard."
In truth, Khordrath didn't really anticipate that Zaldidraax would arrive here and wreak havoc on the Ihor Continent. High Priest Khordrath anticipated that Zaldidraax would spend most of his ti at the Midnight World collecting souls, as that was the standard procedure for how the mbers of the Hall of Kadath operated in similar situations.
But what would one expect from the madman as Zaldidraax, who was widely known for disregarding everything and caring only about what he wanted to do? So, it was understandable to a certain extent that he would co here and fight Khordrath to death.
Now, Khondrath was happy that he managed to summon the three Supre Stage Legendary Level Pit Fiends, as they would fit very well into his plan to fight against the Cardinal Zaldidraax. Not that they could fight directly with the Red Dragon because they would be killed in several minutes in front of his overwhelming might, but they had another purpose.
"Rooaaarrr."
And thus, amidst the torturous cries of the natives of the Midnight World for rcy and their pleas for quicky death, only this trendous dragon roar sounded through the entire region of the United Nations of Prayn Terish, as every living being shuddered in fear.
In that second, every living being recognized that sothing far more powerful and soone who would be bringing end and doom to those who would be defying him. That dragon roar froze everything in fear, as nobody could move, from the ordinary mortals of the Prayn Terish to the priests of the Calamity Church.
The real boss was right here.
"He is here faster than I thought... nor really taking any chances as it seems."
Said the High Priest Khordrath quickly, looking a the humongous figure of the red dragon that descended down from the skies; his body was so huge that it threw a literal shadow on the entire city, but that was normal.
Dragons were growing for their whole lives, and the largest of them were at least of this size. Especially the dragons who achieved Transcendence, no matter the thod, would even be far bigger, essentially reaching the size of average planets. While Zaldidraax was a big dragon, he was far from the largest dragon that ever lived; of course, that didn't count the Void Dragons that lived within the Void.
Suddenly, without any warning, a wave of hellish dragon breath was released from his enormous jaws, directly at the city, and in a split of a second, everything burned to ash, buildings were obliterated, and everything that was living was turned to ashes, and nothing remaining.
With just one single dragon breath, the entire tropolis of the United Nations of Prayn Terish was razed to the ground. This unprecedented level of destruction didn't show only the power of the Red Dragon Cardinal but also the fragile builds of the ordinary mortal world without any supernatural aspects or very advanced technological civilization.
Of course, with the exceptions of the Legendary Level powerhouses from the Calamity Church and three Supre Stage Legendary Level Pit Fiends, who were now flying high in the air. The three Legendary Level Pit Fiends were relatively okey, as they could withstand the attack of the dragon flas, but that one was weak in terms of intensity and power.
"Co out, you fucking rat!"
Zaldidraax roared, enraged that there were so pests that managed to survive his dragon breath, but not overly because he knew that this wasn't his strongest dragon breath. Still, he wanted just to destroy that tropolis beneath them, in case the Priests from the Calamity Church planned to carry out so ritual to weaken him during the fight.
And unknowingly, he succeeded because the Priest of the Calamity Church indeed planned to use the inhabitants of the city in so obscure ritual where they would sacrifice all of their souls and life force in an attempt to obtain blessings from the Evil Gods for Khondrath so he could fight against the Red Dragon Cardinal as an equal.
"Always so vulgar and uncultured, Zaldidraax."
Sounded the carefree voice of the High Priest Khordrath of the Calamity Church as he flew high in the air, looking directly into the dragon's enormous eyes, which were dangerously looking at him. His dragon slits eyed the High Priest Khordrath dangerously as the Red Dragon Cardinal waited for the mont to ponce on the High Priest.
"Stop that posh facade, you abomination of nature, and start fighting already."
Shouted Red Dragon Zaldidraax while, with a single swipe of his tail, he hit the nearest Priest of the Calamity Church, sending him crashing down; as a small shockwave appeared from the impact, the man was killed on the spot.
There was no ti to react for the Legendary Level Priest of the Calamity Church as the attack by the Zaldidraax's tail was strong enough to kill him several tis over, especially since the Red Dragon Cardinal strengthened his tail through his Dragon Chant Magic. Not only his tail but Zaldidraax was strengthening his entire body with the Dragon Chant Magic.
Instantly afterward, purple-black spears materialized around the Khordrath as they shot towards the Zaldidraax with trendous speed; each of those spears contained enough power to raze to ground entire mountain ranges and even whole islands.
Zaldidraax looked at the incoming miasmatic purple-black spears as he used his dragon wings to block the incoming attacks, withstanding them with relative ease, though he could sense that so of the scales on his wings were torn off by the trendous power of that spear.
While their destructive powers were not that high in Zaldidraax's eyes, their penetration power was enough to destroy even many of the Legendary-Grade armors. Other priests of the Calamity Church who were accompanying the High Priest Khordrath looked at the ongoing fight with fright before they decided it would be in their best interest to escape.
In the Calamity Church, there was not much loyalty or such things, only treachery, and deception, so when they realized that the duel between the Cardinal of the Hall of Kadath and their High Priest was getting more and more destructive, they decided to escape.
All of these Priests were only around Interdiate and Advanced Stage Legendary, so if one of their attacks got out of hand, they would be killed as side casualties, not to ntion that the three Supre Stage Legendary Pit Fiends were still observing the battle with great interest.
Zaldidraax instantly turned into his humanoid form, of a handso young-looking man in his thirties with long flowing crimson hair, tribal tattoos donning his arms and torso, golden eyes with dragon slits, and pointed eyes.
The second he finished morphing, he flapped his pair of draconic wings and appeared in front of the High Priest Khordrath, enveloping his fist in the shining crimson fla, as he punched the Khondrath into his stomach, only to be hastily blocked by the purple spear that the Khordrath was holding.
Still, the impact was strong enough to send Khordrath flying several hundreds of ters, crashing into the piles of the destroyed and collapsed ruins of the city that stood here several tens of minutes ago.
Zaldidraax was the bearer of two Sub-Classes that fundantally defined his combat style as one of the most fearso in the entirety of the Tower. One of them was Rare Class Brawler, and another was Unique Class Fla Master; together, they created an extrely destructive combat style, especially when considering his Main Class, the Lord Class World Disaster.
Everything about him was making him a walking disaster, the destroyer of everything that lives or existed, and that was the thing that made the Red Dragon Zaldidraax an extrely dangerous foe.
With both of his hands on flas, Zaldidraax didn't waste a second and instantly flew towards the place where the Khordrath crashed, only to be t with several energy spears from the sa miasma on him, which he all blocked with his swift blows of dragon flas enveloping his hands.
Khordrath being an experienced and powerful Legendary started fighting with the Zaldidraax in close combat, which proved to be a mistake, a grave one because he couldn't match the brutal raw power of the Red Dragon, who was pushing him back with each move.
Still, Khordrath was very slippery the way he attacked, and while he was technically on the defensive, it was very hard for the Zaldidraax to inflict the High Priest of the Calamity Church with any kind of serious injury.
After the Khordrath dodged another powerful blow from the Red Dragon, which would be strong enough to flatten a huge mountain, he looked around, scanning the area for magical signatures, realizing that all of his Priests had already escaped sowhere to safety.
Fortunately for the High Priest, the ones who remained here were the Pit Fiends of the Abyss that he summoned and all three of them were of the Supre Stage Legendary Level, giving them one psychic command telepathically to join the fight, as the three of them rushed at the Zaldidraax.
Seeing those three incoming at him, the red dragon scoffed because those three Pit Fiends won't be able to make any difference in this find. To Zaldidraax's shock, instantly, when they were in his vicinity, three Legendary Level Pit Fiends suddenly lost the control over their bodies as High Priest Khordrath grinned viciously.
Instantly the three Pit Fiends started lting into a weird glob of lted flesh and reforming around the High Priest Khordrath as he started getting bulkier and more muscular, his horns grew bigger, pair of leather wings like that of a Pit Fiends grew from his back, and his aura turned more chaotic and vicious.
"Hmm... so so kind of chira fusion technique?"
Zaldidraax muttered as he observed how the strength of the High Priest increased exponentially after he had fused together with material that was left from three lted Supre Stage Legendary Pit Fiends, while it also caused so sort of mutations to the High Priest.
Usually, these kinds of Chira Fusion Techniques were not commonly used because of their severe side effect, random mutations that could occur during the fusion, and similar things, which resulted in the shady reputation of these techniques.
They were used only as a last resort when one was cornered and needed a very quick increase in the raw power; for that, they proved to be pretty useful, even if the final result was pretty much unstable.
So most people who used them already accepted their fate that they would probably die, thus it beca the last an resort.
"Then co!"
Crimson flas burst out of the Zaldidraax's body as they ford a pillar of scorching hot flas, while the Red Dragon Cardinal revealed a bloodthirsty grin, seeing how much the power of the High Priest Khordrath was increased.
