Dragon Genesis: I Can Create Dragons-Chapter 257: The battle was truly over.

THUNDER

CRACKLING

Slice

Whoosh

BITE

With the two beings attacking Kael with everything they had,

Kael’s body, which was now divided into two parts, a headless upper body and a lower body, hovered in the air as his blood splurged all over the place.

The battle was over.

Or at least...

That is what any normal being would believe.

Zepharion, however, was different. The instant he bit Kael’s head, the serpent realized something.

He... he didn’t taste anything.

No flesh, no blood, nothing.

Even when he saw the blood right in front of him, he... did not feel it.

It was almost as if everything was... fake.

An illusion.

The moment Zepharion thought about it,

*Flicker*

Kael’s ’body’, which was hovering mid-air in front of them, flickered. Even Brontis, who wasn’t as intelligent as Zepharion, realized something was wrong when Kael’s body and his blood disappeared as if they never existed.

Yes, it was indeed an illusion.

Kael had already used \[Ancient Pulse] the moment he kicked Cymorea. Everything Brontis and Zepharion saw after that was an illusion prepared by Kael.

As for the real Kael...

He was obviously after the Gale Harpy.

How could he not finish a weakened target?

That would be a sin.

A stain on his otherwise good reputation and his gamer soul.

Yes, he was chasing after Cymorea while she was sent down spiraling. Of course, even when she was falling down, the Gale Harpy continued bombarding Kael with her spells, trying to slow him down,

Just that...

The Kael she was facing right now wasn’t the ordinary Kael.

He had entered the purest state, a state where he could use much stronger magic. With \[Ancient Pulse], he no longer needed Cirri to be his guide, he could manipulate the air like he wanted on his own.

*Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh*

His speed was much, much faster than normal. The Harpy’s attacks never had a chance to land. Within 8 seconds, Kael appeared right in front of the Harpy and grabbed her by her neck.

"KREEEEEEKKK!!"

The horrified Harpy shrieked, trying to cast another spell but...

Pierce

Kael’s sword pierced her heart.

As life faded out of the Harpy’s body, Kael pulled out his sword and kicked her body down. This time, it fell even faster than before.

One of the Trio was down.

...

"KREEEEEEKKK!!"

On the other side, the instant Brontis and Zepharion heard Cymorea’s shriek, they understood what had happened.

Without thinking, they dived down, trying to save their ally but...

It was already too late.

The only being they saw below was Kael who...

Who seemed to be waiting for them?

"ROOOAAAAARRRRR!!"

Zepharion roared in rage.

The rain around the area became erratic, reflecting his strong emotions. It would have even hindered Kael’s vision, but with Cirri controlling everything around Kael, it wasn’t very effective.

Both Brontis and Zepharion charged at Kael, who...

Ran away.

Once again, the chase started, and this time, the two were chasing Kael’s real body.

However...

This time, things were different.

Zepharion was no longer close to Kael like before. The distance between them was quite large. With the head start Kael had, even when he couldn’t exactly fly, the serpent could never catch him.

Yes, with the long-range dealer, whose job was to hold Kael down at one place so the other two could attack, gone, Zepharion was essentially out of the battle.

The only one who could actually chase Kael down was the Colossus, and that is what Brontis did.

However, even for Brontis, it wasn’t exactly easy. After all, Kael’s speed was a few points higher than the Colossus’s. So even though Brontis could actually chase him because he could actually fly, it would still take time.

More than a minute, to be exact.

And...

That was all Kael needed.

"Father, he is here."

Brontis finally closed the distance,

THUNDER

CRACKLING

Once again, the Colossus gathered lightning around his sword and swung it with all his might.

This time, however,

He couldn’t slice Kael like he ’did the last time’.

Rather...

Kael’s right arm was suddenly covered with bright red scales. He stopped running and turned to face Brontis face to face. He raised his scaled arm and extended it towards Brontis’s lightning-covered sword,

And then,

Clank

He grabbed the sword, absorbing all the lightning around it and the damage that came with it.

"!!!"

Brontis’s eyes behind his helmet flickered.

Kael, however, wasn’t done yet.

He raised his strength even further and,

Snap

He crushed the Colossus’s sword into pieces.

"!!!"

Brontis’s body trembled. freewebnøvel.com

For the first time, he felt it.

Fear.

A Primordial Fear.

And as if toying with his enemy even further, Kael’s eyes turned golden, his face distorted and,

"ROOOAAAAAAAARRRR!!!"

[Roar of Dominion.]

Why use it?

Just because he could.

Not like it cost Mana or anything.

Brontis froze.

He didn’t even try resisting or running away.

He surrendered to the fear that seemed to have taken over his entire being. With the last two seconds left of \[Draconic Strike], Kael grabbed the Colossus’s head and tore it off.

Just like that, the second of the Trio fell.

The only being now left was the Serpent.

And honestly,

It wasn’t even a fair fight anymore.

Zepharion was a balanced being. Unlike Brontis, who was strong and fast, or Cymorea who could cast destructive spells, he didn’t have any speciality, and because of this, Kael was better than him in every possible scenario.

Even without his skills, Kael had no problem facing the last of the Trio.

After a light stretch, Kael turned towards the Serpent, who was still rushing towards him.

"ROOAAAAARRRRRR!"

The Serpent roared and charged without fear. Even though his allies had perished, he did not give in.

Kael prepared himself as well. With Cirri guiding his every move, the battle couldn’t be easier. He even dropped his sword and decided to use punches instead.

The aerial battle continued. Kael twisted and dodged the Serpent’s jaw and,

Bam

He punched the moment he got the chance.

The Serpent’s mouth deformed,

"ROAAAAAAARRRR!!"

He roared but,

Bam Bam Bam

Kael continued his assault until finally,

BAM

With one last punch, he crushed the Serpent’s mouth to the point it deformed beyond recognition. His body couldn’t take it anymore, and finally...

He lost consciousness and fell.

The battle was over.
