Chapter 502 Calamity Upon The Capital [Pt 7]

[Moments Earlier]

"Guarghh... arghh..."

Phil'emon growled as he clutched his chest, feeling the seething sensation of pain coursing through his body.

As a Dragon—especially one that had the passive Skill of making barriers to protect himself—he hardly felt anything such as pain.

This foreign sensation made him froth in the mouth as saliva dropped from his lips while his body spasmed.

"It hurt... it hurts so much! Argh... arghh...!" He yelled, losing all his composure.

"I'll kill that little shit! I'll kill that bastard!"

Phil'emon began moving his body forward, his hateful gaze on the boy with golden hair.

He had a somewhat distracted gaze, so the Dragon thought this was the best time for him to strike.

"Calm yourself, dude." Kar'en said with a sigh, placing a hand on his shoulder to stop him from advancing any further.

"L-Lady Kar—!"

"I won't repeat myself. Calm yourself."

The moment he looked into her crimson eyes, all the rage and boiling hate fizzled out, replaced by a subservient fear that caused him to nod slightly.

"That's much better." She smiled, finally removing her hand from his shoulder. "There's no need to bitch about your injuries. They'll heal in time..."

While Phil'emon knew this, it was still incredibly frustrating feeling the constant pain pending the time that his wounds fully closed.

Since he hardly got hurt, pain was unbearable for him.

While others could take damage and still take it in stride—like how R'ashu, his Junior did—he was different.

Phil'emon was averse to pain.

He didn't like the idea of getting hurt. He didn't want it. He avoided it at all costs.

"Damnit... how did he get past my barrier?!" He growled, feeling the pain lessen as his flesh began merging back together.

"That's what I want to know."

Kar'en's voice caused him to look at her face, and even she appeared troubled. After all, she was well aware of the capabilities of his Defense Skill, so something as absurd as this must have made her cautious as well.

"It must be an effect of that weapon of his. Maybe it ignores defenses, or it has an ability to absorb or break down Skills. The list is endless."

The two Dragon Commanders nodded and responded affirmatively.

'He seems to be almost out of energy. His overall Mana and Combat Ability is definitely inferior to ours.'

Even if her Commanders were at risk to his power, she didn't see how that applied to her.

Kar'en was a Dragon General. That placed her far higher than the likes of Commanders or lesser.

'There's no way he'd even be able to pose a threat to me in his current sta—'

~VWUUUUUUSSSHHH!~

All of a sudden, a brilliant energy burst from the human's location, causing immeasurable radiance to ascend to the sky.

'H-huh...?!'

The glorious light that she saw, and the power that she now felt, was indescribable.

'How is this possible...?!' The human that she appraised just moments ago was no longer the one who stood before her.

His hair floated in the air, and his eyes were glowing with brilliant gold. As the air around her vibrated, and the earth beneath her trembled, Kar'en realized something equally disturbing.

... Her own body was also shaking.

'What is this power?'

No... perhaps that wasn't the right question she ought to have been asking.

'What is this human?!'

Thanks for reading

Time for an epic battle, I hope. Honestly, what do you think is gonna be the outcome?

Limit Transcension allowed fodder Adonis to beat a Commander, but that was a mediocre one. These are all elite ones, and there's even a General in the mix.

What do y'all think?
