Chapter 314: Where Do You Think Your Going Human!

Berserk dragons littered across the horizon, growling, snarling, madness running rife in the air, as their hulking frames bloated the skies and carpeted the earth.

These dragons weren’t as strong as Ash, a great dragon prodigy, lacking nearly as much mass or strength even in this state.

But still their numbers posed even more of a threat to Seth than Ash ever did.

Seth hovered in the distance, "Fuck, I thought that was an exclusive ability!" he muttered to himself silently, his heart going cold.

Throughout his encounters with these beasts and their kind not one had ever exhibited such a berserk state before.

So seeing such a mass influx of such dragons ridden with madness and amplified abilities was jarring to say the least.

Seth couldn’t be more relieved he had ordered a retreat, he couldn’t imagine the rest having to fight off such massive beasts.

His fists clenched and he resummoned his trusty spear.

His muscles coiling ready for action...

Regardless if he wanted to get to the core, he had to get rid of these obstacles.

What irked Seth the most about the current situation was that these beasts kept multiplying.

He could feel their rabid presence stacking from afar...

It made things clear that whoever was directing things planned to make this location the final encounter.

They were throwing their all at him before he got any closer to the core... which was wise.

His eyes traced through his numerous foes, glinting with a bright shade of royal purple, his essence boiling into motion, he silently made his calculations.

Unlike his foe would like him to do, Seth wasn’t going to go out of his way to face all these monsters.

No, his mission this time wasn’t to kill dragons but to penetrate, install, and retreat... and that was exactly what he was going to do.

His wings flapped, sending his frame streaking through the air, the snarling beast hungry for action sensing the foreign presence grew restless and more crazed.

Right now the only thing holding the berserk dragons from tearing everything on sight apart, including themselves, was none other than Atherion’s command.

Unlike humans who were born with the gift of free will, dragons were exempt from this feature.

Being slaves to those of a higher and purer bloodline, compelled to do whatever was ordered even if unwilling.

And even mad and without a rational mind to compel this feature remained ingrained in their blood.

So that their madness could be directed to none other than this scary human.

Boom!

The wind cracked and whipped as Seth’s frame rammed mercilessly through his first victim leaving the beast as nothing but gore and blood.

Their target was finally within range... out of the reach of the bottomless abyss, the dragons grew rabid, bursting into a flurry of chaotic, instinctive motion, they pounced at once, not even blinking at the fact that one of their own had just been executed.

Seth’s hair fluttered beautifully in the wind, highlighted by the fiery glow of the plain, his obsidian scales glistened, halting to face his attacker.

Some charging rabidly, others charging flame breaths...

Their might clearly higher than what it should’ve been...

Shadows cast over him, as crimson lights beamed from another angle...

"Well, now you know I can do that too." Seth muttered, glancing at the throat-pulsing opponents, barely sparing a glance at those charging.

His wings flapped and his spear flipped, bursting into a series of blurred motions as he weaved through his attackers.

Empowered by both will and telekinesis, the spear shredded through the dragons like a hot knife through butter, none of them able to even muster resistance.

Dragon blood splashing and drizzling down beneath, bodies dropping dead like flies.

Each strike dealing a one-shot critical blow that ended his foe for good, giving no chance for unexpected surprises.

Coming to a sudden halt, heat blistered in the atmosphere, the flames finishing to brew and ready to be unleashed.

Maddened roars pealed across the skies, highlighted by a crimson, fiery tinge, beaming out from their throats.

Seth didnt evade, he didn’t need to like he said they weren’t the only ones that could do that.

His head whipped their way, chest swelling as dark essence brewed...

His eyes flickering brilliantly, as his jaws suddenly snapped open, his cheeks glowing a translucent shade of bright purple as a wide range torrent of flames burst out of his maws.

The winds going still, as the raging tide of purple met with crimson, sparks cackling as the clash caused a rattling jolt in the air.

Fwoooom!

The purple flames raged forwards without contest, swallowing the flames of the dragons whole along with the dragon themselves and the others rapidly charging from behind.

Like a flame torch going wild on a whole colony of ants who had no power to resist.

"Awoooooo!"

Pained howls raged, and their regretful grunts cracked before going silent, the beasts all being reduced to ashes.

Seth’s essence finally calmed, his jaws snapped shut, and the purple flames flickered and calmed. The dancing embers littering the crimson fields turned lava, the entire area cleared.

But still a whole horde of more maddened dragons rose in the place of the defeated.

The berserk beasts showing no fear, their eyes glinting with nothing but the terrifying dedication to rip their foe to shreds.

Roars raged through the air, as shadows of more beasts loomed forward, the bodies of those slain below trampled as the horde mindlessly marched.

Forward... too bad Seth didn’t have the liberty to engage the monsters.

His frame tilted to the side in a stance, his spear drawn far back, like a bow nocked and ready to shoot.

His tendons thrummed, as his bulging veins coiled as essence rushed in torrent flows through them like raging streams of the river Nile.

The cold mist wafting off his weapon growing dense, and the presence grew...

Seth’s eyes glowed sharply, as he yelled, "PIERCE!!!"

RUMBLE!!

His voice resounding like thunder and Force Embodiment flickered to life like a star igniting the dark in a sea of darkness, as he heaved, launching the spear forth with all his might, the weapon glowing bright as an essence projection cloaked it...

The projectile launched, seeming less like a spear but more like a gigantic ballista bolt!

There was no suspense, shredding through the looming horde like they were plies of proceedings.

The shockwaves bursting with a loud bang, as a huge hole was torn straight through the enemy forces.

Wasting no time, cause the effect was exactly what he wanted, Seth burst into a streak, charging through the temporary gap, flame breaths charging from all sides.

"Hmph!" He snorted, charging through the violent embers, and tearing through the mass of foes, bursting out of the others end.

Well, there were more dragons, but he had gathered an unstoppable momentum, steel-faced, his wings flapped, catapulting him through the skies even faster, like an asteroid drawing a streak.

He never stopped, his frame tearing through all obstructions, dragon or not, he continued his charge, never killing his momentum, instead boosting it with momentary flaps of his wings.

A few trails of corpses and gore later, with a resounding blast he finally tore through the last opponent, tearing out of the encirclement.

His lips curved ever so slightly... now he just had to keep going and get to the core.

Of course the rabid beast behind would chase him, but they wouldn’t be fast enough to catch up.

Just as he was finalizing this conclusion, from nowhere a dark shade cast over his frame, a new presence rippling into the scene, right above him.

A pair of golden eyes, holding sharp dark vertical slits locked on his frame, as a feminine voice growled.

"Where do you think you’re going, human!"
