The Flamingo’s twin heads nodded in agreent, a rare mont of consensus between the legendary creatures. Even allied domains create interference patterns. We would weaken each other instead of strengthening our position.
Arthur processed this information with genuine interest. So he couldn’t simply stack the benefits of multiple domains to create overwhelming environntal advantages. Each domain required exclusive dinsional control, aning he had to choose one source of territorial power rather than combining them.
Or did he?
A smile ford on Arthur’s face as understanding filled his mind. "Winter Beast, place your domain. Now."
The creature complied imdiately, channelling its second-order power outward. An incredibly large ice do materialised around their position, encompassing Arthur, both his summons, and the Wind Hawk in a sphere of supernatural cold that stretched hundreds of ters across.
CRACK... CRACK... CRACK...
Frost spread across every surface as the Eternal Winter Domain asserted itself. Temperature plumted dozens of degrees in seconds, and ice crystals ford in the air itself. The environntal control was absolute within the Winter Beast’s claid space.
[You are in the Winter Beast’s domain. Environntal conditions heavily favor ice-based abilities.]
SCREEEEE!
The Wind Hawk’s golden eyes blazed with fury at the territorial challenge.
This ground-dwelling creature dared to impose domain authority in its aerial kingdom Unacceptable.
The legendary bird unleashed its own second-order power with overwhelming force.
Tempest Sovereignty Domain!
WHOOOOOOSH!
Wind erupted with cataclysmic intensity, hurricane-force gales battering against the Winter Beast’s ice do. The clash between domains created visible distortions in reality as competing environntal controls fought for supremacy.
The Wind Hawk’s domain was stronger—undeniably stronger. Level 27 second-order power backed by decades of refinent overwheld the Winter Beast’s level 25 capabilities. The ice do began fracturing, cracks spreading across its surface as wind pressure steadily overpowered frozen defenses.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
[The Winter Beast’s domain is being suppressed! Environntal benefits reduced by 73%!]
The Wind Hawk’s twin cries carried triumphant satisfaction as it felt its territorial authority dominating the inferior domain. Within monts, the Eternal Winter would collapse completely, leaving the intruders helpless within its Tempest Sovereignty.
But before the legendary bird could fully enjoy its dominance, Arthur’s voice cut through the chaos.
"Flamingo—activate your domain. Target the Wind Hawk specifically."
The massive two-headed flamingo responded instantly, channelling its own second-order power with focused intent.
Endless Tidal Domain!
SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH!
Water erupted from nowhere, flooding the contested space as a third domain forced itself into the dinsional conflict. The peaceful tropical sea materialised within the ice do and wind storm, creating an impossible three-way territorial clash.
The Wind Hawk’s confident dominance was shattered as it suddenly found itself fighting on two fronts. Its Tempest Sovereignty, which had been steadily crushing the Winter Beast’s domain, now had to contend with the Flamingo’s aquatic authority simultaneously.
WHOOOOSH! SPLASH! CRACK!
Wind battered against water. Water froze into ice. Ice lted back into water. Wind scattered the ice. Water dampened the wind’s force. The three domains created a chaotic interference pattern where none could establish clear supremacy.
[You are in a contested domain space! Multiple second-order territories are clashing!]
[All domain benefits have been nullified due to interference patterns!]
[Environntal advantages: NONE]
[Attribute bonuses: NONE]
[Damage modifiers: NONE]
Arthur’s smile widened with satisfaction as the notifications confird his theory. Despite the Wind Hawk possessing the strongest individual domain, it couldn’t maintain its territorial advantages while simultaneously fighting off two weaker domains, even if those domains didn’t necessarily strengthen or rge.
The Flamingo focused entirely on clashing with the Wind Hawk, its aquatic authority creating dinsional friction that prevented the bird’s wind manipulation from achieving full effectiveness. The Winter Beast’s ice domain, though largely suppressed, still contributed residual interference that further degraded the hawk’s environntal control.
The result: a completely neutral battlefield where raw power and skill would determine victory rather than domain advantages.
SCREEEEE!
The Wind Hawk’s furious cry reflected its shock at this developnt.
Its greatest advantage—the second-order domain that had allowed it to dominate the aerial territories for decades—had been completely negated by a clever tactical application of multiple weaker domains.
"That’s better," Arthur said, drawing his Chaos Katana as blood trailed along from earlier hunting. "Now we fight on equal terms."
Whoosh!
The Wind Hawk didn’t waste ti with indignation. It dove with frightening speed, talons extended and wreathed in residual wind energy despite the nullified domain benefits. Even without environntal advantages, a level 27 legendary creature possessed devastating physical capabilities.
Arthur teleported sideways, the hawk’s talons missing him by inches as he reappeared ten ters away.
Arthur then cast the unlucky skill that he had gotten from Neko on the Wind Hawk.
[The user has been marked as the ’Unlucky One’. The Wind Hawk has been afflicted with 20% reduction in defence for 1 minute.]
Staring at the notification before him, a huge smile erupted on Arthur’s face. A fifth of the wind Hawk’s defence has been chipped away imdiately by the legendary skill.
Neko’s skills are truly terrifying, even if they weren’t anything flashy.
Sensing the shock of the Wind Hawk as it felt the effect of the skill, Arthur attacked it imdiately. His orbit skill sent twenty weapons towards it without fail, whilst he himself dashed with chaos in his hand, vibrating with excitent.
The blood of such a powerful beast would replenish a huge chunk of its strength, if not all!
Whoosh!
Chaos tore through space itself, targeting the Wind Hawk’s left wing. The slash beca even stronger as the Hawk had reduced defences, cutting through feathers like butter.
SCREEE!
The attack connected, severing several primary feathers and leaving a bleeding gash across the wing’s leading edge.
