Chapter 155
—–
Blake glanced into the battlefield with an astonished look into his eyes. He was concentrated into the fight; the two spirits were of almost comparable level of power. Despite Cassandra’s spirit not being Rank 2, because of the forbidden power of the demons, it had become incredibly powerful, surpassing even her natural Rank. Meanwhile, Ellergest’ spirit, the Holy Dragon he had summoned, although it looked infantile to Blake’s eyes, it was obvious that this spirit was in another league completely. Dragons were dragons for a reason.
Their movements were incredibly quick as well, on a completely different level. For normal people such as Gabriela and even Elisabeth, it felt as if they were looking at two blurs, one was gold and the other red and black, the two were fighting in midair while the two masters assessed the enormous quantities of mana necessary to summon such powerful spirits.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
The Demon was furious and berserk-like, his enormous muscular body moved at an incredible speed despite its big and heavy body. Its fists were incredibly big and strong, a single punch left a big mark in the scale armor covering the entire dragon’s body, it was a mesmerizing sight to behold for someone like Gabriela and Elisabeth, and Blake also began to grow worried himself. This entire fight had started from this incident of a woman being poisoned. Thinking back then, he never would had thought that such a thing could escalate into such a battle against a person that had embraced the power of demons but lost her sanity in the process.
“RROOOAARRR!!!”
The Holy Dragon roared, his enormous claws slashed through the entire body of the demon, and his enormous tail hit him into the stomach, pushing him down into the ground in an instant!
CLAAASH!
“GRUUAH…!”
The giant red demon glared angrily at the dragon, who was as long as five meters, flashing brightly with enormous quantities of holy light. The dragon didn’t lose a single second as Ellergest conjured a Spirit Technique; the first Blake had ever seen.
“Spirit Technique: Dragon Meteor!”
Magic spells, runes, and the strong bond that Ellergest had with his dragon all converged together into a wondrous awe-spiring power that began to run through the entire body of the dragon, making it fiercer, stronger, and faster.
In a mere split of a second, like a true meteor, the dragon fell over the demon on the ground! The clash was so intense that the shockwaves generated created dozens of cracks around the ground within the large backyard that the residence had!
CRAAAASSSSSHHH!!!
The powerful attack hit the demon intensively, crushing it deeper into the ground, as Ellergest continued to infuse more of his power.
“Finish him off!” He roared.
“GRAAAAH!”
The demon, however, wasn’t going to let itself be destroyed so easily! It suddenly moved with incredibly swiftness, as if it knew basic martial arts. Twisting its own body, the strong arms and legs wrapped around the dragon’s long, serpentine body, crushing it tightly and bending the scale armor, and then…!
CRAASH!
The demon used such an enormous force to put the dragon down as if he were a wrestler! The Dragon was surprised, as his entire momentum was lost as it was used against him. He suddenly felt the enormous force and weight he was applying to the demon being thrown back at him as he was pushed down!
BOOM!
“Uuuggh…!”
“What?!” Ellergest muttered, as he saw his dragon annoyingly groan in pain. He quickly looked back at where Cassandra was, without finding her either! “Eh? Where did she go-”
Ellergest senses sharpened in that instant, as he was able to sense the dark force behind him. Cassandra emerged like a mass of shadows that had hidden from his sight in an instant and attempted to lurk behind him to kill him. After all, it was always easier to slay the spirit master than defeating the spirit himself!
The woman smiled maliciously, wearing a crimson-red dress that fitted her malicious smile and her green eyes, which were slowly turning completely red as well. Her hands moved swiftly, firing two daggers infused with explosive demonic energy towards Ellergest!
Blake saw the scene as he gritted his teeth, he had predicted this outcome beforehand, Ellergest was too old for close-combat battles, his dragon was mighty and could even resist the blows of the powerful demon spirit, but Ellergest was completely different! Without having enough time to create a shield spell, the old man would be killed!
“D-Damn it…!” Muttered Ellergest, as he gritted his teeth and was about to unleash an attack, but it was too late, the daggers were moving across the air, reaching up to his body, if they were to be touched, like bombs, they would explode and consume him into the powerful explosion.
FLASH!
However, using his incredible speed, and the power of Tier 1 Wind Magic to maneuver in the middle of the sky, Blake moved forward, joining the battle in the most unexpected way possible! Ellergest and Cassandra were surprised as they saw the young boy emerge, covered in his black hood as his dark and red spear unleashed a truly demonic power rivaling even Cassandra!
“(I won’t be able to resist the explosion normally… Unless I generate a powerful enough blow that can overpower the explosion and push it away from my range…!)” Thought Blake in a single second, as he suddenly recalled his long past, fusing several techniques he had learned through his life alongside his innate vampiric powers dwelling within his ever-developing physique!
Ellergest was flabbergasted as he saw Blake unleash a blood-red aura from within his entire body, encompassing his demonic cursed spear, and unleashing an incredible technique! His spear quickly began to move, as if it were many at the same time, generating afterimages made out of red energy that clashed against the two daggers!
“Blood Dragoon Spear Arts: Scarlet Sea!”
SPLAAAASH!
And as if it were an illusion, Cassandra saw as his amazing spear movements turned into some sort of sea made of pure blood, rampaging her daggers as they exploded, and moving away the explosions from his range swiftly and barely…!
BOOOM! BOOOM!!!
“I-Impossible…! How can a mere child do such a thing?!”
