### Chapter: 295
The Annihilating Fire Dragon
Kraush, having unleashed his ultimate trump card, was now completely transformed into Dragon Royalty.
The mind-boggling sight of a human morphing into Dragon Royalty was nothing short of spectacular.
The dark attribute demon, Black Bird, stood frozen in awe.
“......Dragon Royalty.”
She muttered in a daze, her eyes wide open as if she were under a spell.
Black Bird, a dark attribute demon, had her pride elevated by her own race’s superiority.
Her pride stemmed from her lineage, which was considered noble among her kind.
In particular, her unique dark attribute only enhanced her value further.
There were less than ten among her kind who possessed the dark attribute.
The dark skin characteristic of her race had always been an object of envy.
Thus, she proudly displayed her skin and ears.
To her, other races were no different from slaves, destined to serve her for life.
Yet, that was only true until her world fell apart.
Having crossed into another world after her own’s destruction, she was treated as an invader, not a noble.
She couldn’t accept this reality.
Hence, joining Ixion was somewhat inevitable for her.
After all, she was the one who desperately wanted to reclaim her world.
But even Black Bird faced a superior being compared to her kind for the first time.
Dragon Royalty.
Kraush of the Crimson Garden August.
They sought not only eternal life but also an otherworldly power and aura that dwarfed all she could comprehend. They had reached the apex of insatiable knowledge and reigned supreme.
This was the ideal form of an absolute being that Black Bird longed for.
Even after crossing worlds, they still held dominion as absolute beings.
A prime example being the White Dragon King, who constructed an empire.
To Black Bird, who treated everyone like slaves, such beings were the epitome of her ideals.
Their very existence meant that mere mortals like her would dare to bow their heads in subservience.
To Black Bird, that was what Dragon Royalty represented.
However, she could not accept this fact.
How could there be a race superior to hers? She must not acknowledge that.
Thus, she pretended to vehemently despise the Dragon Royalty, even while harboring a deep admiration and envy for the Crimson Garden, who was once a part of Ixion.
Even after the Crimson Garden left Ixion, Black Bird relentlessly pursued them unlike other world erosion creatures.
While verbally denouncing her, her gaze was always fixed on the Crimson Garden.
It was in that unacknowledged moment that Kraush, now transformed into Dragon Royalty, appeared before her.
Black Bird’s eyes were fixed on Kraush, unable to move.
Though she didn’t want to admit it, she admired Dragon Royalty.
Now that she faced Kraush, who had attained that form, a storm of indescribable emotions swirled within her.
If a mere human could become Dragon Royalty, why couldn’t she?
Could she not also become Dragon Royalty?
Then perhaps she could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Crimson Garden and have meaningful conversations with them.
Such thoughts filled her mind and bubbled over.
Boom!
In that very moment, a sound of something being crushed reached her ears.
As she shifted her gaze, she saw the Hell Fairy, trampled by Kraush’s foot.
Having been attacked earlier, there was no opportunity for the Hell Fairy to recover before Kraush launched a swift strike.
Kraush raised his sword, intending to finish off the Hell Fairy.
Black Bird snapped back to reality.
“Where do you think you’re going!”
At that moment, two Muhee blades shot toward Kraush.
Instead of swinging his sword, Kraush planted his foot into the Hell Fairy, lending his weight.
Crunch!
“Gah!”
The Hell Fairy spewed blood and was instantaneously incapacitated.
From the looks of it, her ribcage was shattered, causing internal damage.
Kraush pressed on, skillfully dodging the two flying Muhee rushing at him.
The Muhee spun in every direction, executing erratic attacks, but Kraush’s instincts allowed him to anticipate and evade them.
Black Bird’s expression twisted as she created an opening.
As one Muhee suddenly bent down toward the ground, it smashed into the earth.
At that moment, the impact sent shards of stone flying toward Kraush.
Kraush’s presence surged, countering the stone fragments.
But soon, he realized something ominous above him.
At that moment, a massive willow tree was crashing down upon Kraush.
Black Bird had sliced the willow with her Muhee.
Eager to dodge the falling tree, Kraush began to twist his body.
Eeek!
Suddenly, both Muhee struck simultaneously from either side.
He realized the escape route had been blocked.
Kraush decided to abandon his evasion.
Instead, he planted his feet firmly on the ground.
With a powerful leap, he charged straight ahead.
Just as he propelled himself forward, the willow fell.
He seized Rain Thunder Prime, igniting it in a spectacular blaze.
Simultaneously, the sounds of Kraush overpowering Muhee Transformation rang out.
Black Bird sensed the urgency.
If she canceled her Muhee Transformation, she would be completely overwhelmed by Kraush.
There was no way she would give Kraush a chance to deal the finishing blow.
Ka-kang!
But despite the battle, her Muhee continued to pressure Kraush, slowly but surely pushing him back.
No matter how strong Kraush was, he couldn’t generate enough force to repel three Muhee at once.
His power was currently concentrated on Rain Thunder Prime.
Thus, he was bound to be pressed by the Muhee.
It turned into a complete battle of strengths.
Would Black Bird’s Muhee cut through Kraush’s momentum first, or would Kraush break Muhee Transformation and strike her down?
Black Bird gritted her teeth.
No matter how much he transformed into Dragon Royalty, the mere thought of going toe-to-toe with Kraush was a blow to her pride.
Yet, she wouldn’t cease her relentless assault.
Ka-kang!
Her Muhee spun faster, showering stars over the arena.
Kraush felt an intense pressure squeezing him from all sides.
Just as Black Bird began to feel victory draw close, Kraush had remained silently resolute.
Had he given up?
As that thought crossed her mind, a pounding sensation rang in Black Bird’s ears.
Thud—
Kraush’s heart echoed in unison, a sound louder than any other.
A strange energy began to gather around him.
Slowly, the space around Kraush began to tilt toward him.
The winds of the area swirled, drawn toward Kraush.
The fallen willow began to flutter gently in the breeze.
Black Bird realized she was sweating profusely.
An instinctive chill shot from her gut to her head.
This was dangerous.
At the moment of realization, Black Bird thrust her arms forward.
Kiiiying!
Black Bird unleashed an overwhelming force toward her Muhee.
If she failed to kill Kraush now, she’d be the one to perish.
The ring of her Muhee Transformation intensified in color, expanding, and crushing Kraush with might.
She needed to shatter Kraush’s Rain Thunder Prime and eliminate him at once.
Yet, for some reason, Black Bird realized her Muhee couldn’t budge Kraush even a fraction.
Instead, it felt as if it was being consumed by him instead.
Her Muhee Transformation started to push back toward her.
Without thinking, she took a step back, driven by the instinct of survival.
Then came the rush of humiliation—she had actually retreated out of fear.
Flash!
The earrings dangling from her long ears began to radiate sharply.
Simultaneously, an overwhelming force erupted from within her, more potent than before.
The spoils of war from her destroyed world.
A tool that increases output at the cost of memories.
“AAAH!”
As blood erupted from her nose, the color of her spinning Muhee turned pitch black, unable to let even a hint of light through.
Earthen Ring Treasure
Ultimate
All Things Impermanent!
The space around her Muhee twisted grotesquely.
Absorbing the power of World Erosion to its utmost limits.
As the Muhee spun, the willow tree and the barrier began to crumble and warp.
Shards from the barrier flew chaotically, obliterating everything around.
In an instant, it looked as though the Muhee had swallowed Kraush whole.
Kraush’s form disappeared from view as she couldn’t hear a single sound from him.
But beyond her formidable technique.
Crack!
Creaking noises rang from Kraush’s mouth as he bit down on something.
At the same time, something shot into the sky.
Black Bird gaped as she watched the scene unfold.
High above the crumbling barrier, a White Dragon soared toward the heavens.
Such a sight was breathtakingly beautiful, invoking a sense of transcendent wonder.
As the silver wind rustled, the White Dragon descended slowly into Black Bird’s field of vision.
In that moment, she realized.
This sight was to be her last.
With radiant light filling her vision, the White Dragon opened its mouth wide.
Annihilation Erosion
Seventh Style
Annihilating Heaven’s White Dragon!
It was the instant the White Dragon consumed the dark attribute demon.
