Hearing Derik's reply the three elders frowned but did not make a move. They heard all the conversations and they have seen everything that has happened. Derik may be the death god who invaded this world and gave them a chance to return to the central continent but that's just it. If this man chose to go against them, they definitely will not hold back against him!
In fact, they find it extremely infuriating that a former god whose power has been reduced to this level dares to go around making bold claims! If they don't deal with him now, it will be harder to do that in the future.
"You gave the dragon race a chance to return to glory! You gave all of us an opportunity so we will do the same for you... Call off your people and there will be peace... All the dead will be overlooked... We will even let you have an empire of your own in the central continent... This is an opportunity for you to repent of your sins... By the way, we will be getting rid of the gods whom you infuriated... It is a win-win situation here" The elder at the center said calmly and Derik frowned.
This cocky piece of shit dares ask him to repent of his sins?
IMPUDENT FOOL!
"The only sin I have to repent of is that of Endangering hundreds of thousands of lives by invading and weakening their gods... That is the sin I am atoning for right now!" Derik responded coldly.
There was silence for a short while as both sides kept gazing at each other from a distance since none wanted to make a move.
"If that is the case then you must die here" The elder at the center finally said while letting out a defeated sigh.
"Only someone capable of taking my life is allowed to say that... As far as I am concerned... No one in this room is capable of that" Derik hissed before slamming the armrest of his bone throne and flying into the air.
His eyes revealed intense killing lights as kicked the air and shot towards the three elders like an arrow!
"HE IS MINE!" The elder at the center growled furiously as he slammed his throne, shattering it while shooting into the air!
Boom!
Both sides collided creating a powerful shockwave!
Bam!
Both sides were sent flying back and eventually landed roughly but Derik remained unharmed while the fire dragon elder had blood rolling down his lips.
"Even with a weak body, you are able to bring out this much strength? As expected of the being that many considered the absolute in the past... But if this is the full extent of your strength right now, you stand no chance against me... Not to talk of all of us!" The elder said calmly.
Derik remained silent as he flexed his muscles. As expected he barely had the strength advantage against an elder dragon even with his werewolf form activated and the enemy is yet to use his dragon scales or return to his strongest form.
"I guess this is it..." Derik said calmly as his body leaned back and his eyes revealed a bright red flash!
His words left everyone confused since it was so abrupt and out of context. They could only wait for him to explain.
" Even three of you will fail to deal with me... Even if there are five of you, you still have no chance at victory..." Derik said calmly as he began talking little steps forward.
His words infuriated the two other elders and they quickly rose on their feet. They initially planned to let Derik face them one on one but after he dared to say words like that, these people decided to and his life together!
"You just had to open your big mouth" One of the elders said with a frown on his face.
"Only I would have been enough for you but you just had to talk..." Another elder said calmly.
"Now you are surrounded, what do you plan to do?" The third elder asked with a raised eyebrow.
Meanwhile, Derik remained silent as they slowly surrounded him. He didn't speak or interrupt them while they spoke. He just let them finish before making his move.
"Surrounded? What the hell are you saying? I should be the one saying that... You all are surrounded" Derik said with a cruel grin on his face as his black aura suddenly turned darkish green.
Whoosh!
His body was covered in green flames as he charged at the first elder and the other two by his side chased after him! The first elder saw this and braced himself for Derik's attack but then he realized Derik was slightly slower than usual, allowing the two elders coming in from the sides to reach him faster than expected!
"Get back! It's a trap!" The first elder roared but Derik had already made his move!
Bam!
His darkish green aura sank the ground and from the ground, numerous green chains shot out, shooting towards the three elders!
Whoosh!
These elders are far skilled than the others Derik has gone against and instead of pushing back the two elders kept advancing while maneuvering through the numerous chains attacking them from all sides.
Bam!
The first elder took a massive leap back as he inhaled deeply before exhaling!
FIRE DRAGON ROAR!
A massive beam twice the size of the normal beams sped towards Derik! If he gets hit by such an attack, it would be a miracle if his body remains intact!
"Nice move!" Derik muttered as he controlled all the chains to form a wall to block the fire beam, meanwhile, he slowly turned to face the approaching enemies with a wild grin on his face. His eyes flashed brightly as his hair grew even larger and claws could be seen taking the place of his nails.
ROAR!
Derik let out a loud cry as he lunged at one of the elders with a wild grin on his face.
