Chapter 516 The Last Bout [Pt 1]

"You..."

~BWUUSH!~

An instant lash of powerful wind surged from Kar'en, instantly parting the crimson blast that surrounded her.

The immense heat from the explosion caused smoke to rise from all over the area—including a portion of her body—but all in all, she wasn't badly damaged.

Her wings, which had been cut off just moments prior, were now present once again, and her four horns gleamed under the sunset.

"You annoying pests..." Kar'en growled as she stared down at the humans who refused to die and be trampled underfoot her mighty power.

Every single time that she thought they would finally crumble, an intervention would always occur. It was fun at first, but Kar'en was beginning to get pissed off.

'Those two... where the hell did they come from?' She narrowed her gaze on Lucielle and Brutus.

The former was right beside the burnt-up, bloodied Clark, utilizing Healing Magic on him. As for the Head Warrior, he was standing right beside Adonis, both their stances depicting a readiness to fight.

'They fit the description of the strongest humans in the world. I can't remember their names, but they're the trump cards of the pathetic Alliance...'

Despite their title, it wasn't like they were of any major threat to the Dragons.

None of them had S-Tier Skills, from what she knew, and their pathetic Stats were lacking compared to hers and the rest of the top-tier Dragons.

Heck, even Dragon Commanders ought to have better Stats than these human vermin.

'But, if that's the case, how were they able to catch me by surprise and even damage me?'

Kar'en was sure that she evaded the man's strike, yet she still managed to get hit. That didn't make sense unless some kind of Skill was involved.

'And that woman... she hijacked my Skill, didn't she? How? It was an S-Tier Skill, so shouldn't that be impossible unless she has an S-Tier Skill as well?'

At that moment, Kar'en was reminded of the boy in glasses, the one who had just perished recently. He was able to shut down her Skills, but it seemed this woman was able to take it a step further and hijack control of them.

'Either way... they're dangerous.' Kar'en thought to herself as she narrowed her gaze.

If she wasn't careful, she would suffer for it.

'Then...' A wide smile appeared on her face as she gazed upon her adversaries. 'Let's stop holding back, shall we?'

~VWUUSH!~

In a brilliant flash of scarlet, the humanoid before them transformed into something colossal. Her slender body and pristine form grew much larger—far more majestic.

Scales that shone like rubies appeared and decorated her skin. Her four horns were like pristine jewels that sprang out of her head. Her eyes glowed crimson, and steam kept rising from within her glowing mouth.

In this form, Kar'en was at least thirty meters tall, with her massive wings flapping behind her to create a powerful pressure all around. Her tail dangled like a fat, sturdy rope, and as she maintained this form, she folded her arms and gazed down on the pathetic humans who were forced to raise their heads to watch her.

As soon as he said this, a brilliant explosion of light filled the area, causing even Kar'en to squint, and eventually close her eyes.

She was pushed back a little, only due to the intensity of the light, but being stunned like this gave the humans the perfect window of opportunity.

~WHOOSH!~

Before she realized it, they were both in her presence—Adonis in front, and Brutus behind.

'Pfft! How pathetic!' Kar'en grinned to herself.

"Too slow!"

She launched her own [AVALON], sending the energy flying around her so it would undoubtedly blow away the two humans before her.

~VWUUUUSH!~

As the crimson wave of energy rose from her, spreading all around, Adonis' blade shot up in power and created a powerful storm of immeasurable energy that seemed to gather at a single point.

"[LANCELOT]!"

~BOOOOOOOM!~

Instantly, [AVALON] was ripped to shreds—broken apart by the single-point attack that Adonis made.

'H-huh...?!' Kar'en's eyes widened as she stared at the impossible sight.

She was definitely a lot stronger now than she was just moments ago. The quality of her Skills, and the efficiency of her abilities, made it so that they would be nigh impossible to deal with.

Yet, with just one thrust, Adonis was able to break through.

And now...

"[MORDRED]!"

... There was an opening to strike.
