Chapter 533 Divine Battle [Pt 3]

"UROOOOOAAAHHHH!!!"

Dagon's roar shook the heavens and terrified the earth. Its cry emerged from the very depths of its beastly lungs, and its body shook violently as it let everything out.

Saliva danced out of its gaping mouth as this echo burst forth, and the surrounding rubble—even the ground beneath his feet—scattered apart and were crushed, due to the pressure alone.

In mere seconds, Dagon stood at the center of a massive crater of its own making; one spanning hundreds of meters.

Then, it cast its attention to the being that stood high in the sky.

For a while now, Dagon had been distracted—no, held back—by two major things that caused its movements to appear sluggish and lack any precision.

One was its instinctive drive to kill the Tamer.

That, more than anything, was its drive. Even now, as its body boiled in violent rage towards the obstacle before it, the demise of the Tamer was the major desire its primitive mind had.

As for its second distraction... that had to do with the 'mark' that it sensed within the opponent. It was similar to what it sensed from the blond girl earlier, but this felt a lot stronger.

At the very least, they were both placed by the same entity.

"GRRRRRRRR...." Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

The very fact that it sensed this warding mark made it hesitate in slight, but important ways. It was distracting, to say the least.

Due to these factors, Dagon had not been operating at full strength. But now...?

"GRRRRRRRRRRRR....!"

Its body was steaming hot, and its silvery blue scales began to shed, losing all of the blue parts to transform into an entirely silver entity.

The sole horn on its bald head ascended a few more inches high, the spikes behind it grew larger, and its entire muscled form began to grow much bigger and denser. From three meters, it became five meters tall.

It also stood upright, releasing itself from the hunching gait it once had. At this point, all the damaged silvery blue scales had been shed, revealing only pure silver to shroud its massive form.

Right at that point, Dagon evolved.

"HUUUUU..." As it let out this deep breath, it noticed the obstacle was preparing yet another blast aimed at it.

The last ones hurt Dagon a lot, even going as far as shaving off its Life Force, so it became averse to the sensation. Sure, its scales were tougher now, but its survival instincts told it to evade regardless.

Then—

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!~

—The brilliant lights of judgment descended.

"GRAAAAHHH!" Dagon charged forward, its limbs clawing their way on the ground as it began to race ahead.

Then, it felt a shift in the world around it.

Dagon recognised what was happening at that moment. Whatever Rey was about to do, it would involve him teleporting away to create some distance between them.

That was another annoying trick that the human had—one that this Divine Beast could no longer tolerate.

And so, like a jet at full speed, Dagon kicked the air behind him and rushed towards Rey right as the Zones were about to shift.

Needless to say, the human's efforts ended in failure.

~WHAM!~

Dagon grabbed Rey's bloody face right before he could succeed, causing the entire Zone change to be aborted.

There was a reason why Rey never used the [Domain Of The Lord] Skill directly on Dagon. —He couldn't.

Dagon had nigh immunity to Skills and Magic, so none of those worked directly on it. The closer it got to the source of the power, the more those effects would be affected. And, if it made physical contact with that source, any power activated would be aborted.

No one in the world knew this, but this was a manifestation of Dagon's Null Art—an Ancient MajiK that became nothing more than an instinctive part of itself.

Rey, or anything he could muster at this point, did not stand a chance.

~WHOOOOOOM!~

Dagon flung Rey's body towards the dome-like barrier that stood at the highest point of the city.

That was where its prey was.

With his body helplessly flung towards that direction, the Divine Beast dived downward, raising both of its hands in the air as it sent its knees crashing on Rey's chest.

"Guark!" Blood spurted out of his lips, but that was none of Dagon's concerns.

The boulder-like fists, clasped together in destructive harmony, fell upon the boy's face.

~BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~

The shockwave that resounded in the air spread for miles, and the resulting impact caused Rey to fall faster than ever, easily creating a hole in the Magic Barrier that protected the whole estate.

As Rey fell, Dagon followed, something blue-like glowing in its throat.

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!~

Rey's descent caused a massive crater at the point of his descent, and while he struggled to get back up despite his severe injuries, Dagon crashed right on his stomach, causing him to cough out even more blood mixed in with saliva.

On this site of destruction, Rey was on the ground—fallen, and absolutely beaten—and the Beast stood triumphantly atop its body.

There was only one thing left for Dagon to do.

'ELIMINATE!'
