Chapter 344 I WonAt that moment, another square entered Linus' body.

His skin instantly gleamed white, erasing all hints of the golden aura from before.

Even his clothes turned completely white, as he dashed forward.

He slashed his wand at Lyrian again, but this time, the waves of light energy that launched out were far more dense.

Lyrian could feel them cutting through the atmosphere as they moved as if they were over a thousand pounds each!

'He used gravitational magic on them.' He mused, finding it slightly difficult to dodge them.

Linus was far faster than before, so as he tried to back up, Linus quickly caught up with him.

At that moment, Lyrian decided to change his style.

He stepped back far and uncoiled his hands.

A snake had two modes of attack, one that was coil and bite... and the other that was investigate and lunge.

Lyrian had been performing the coil and bite method, but now, he was going with the latter option.

He waved his two hands in front of himself as he lunged his legs slightly.

His hands moved freely like waves in the ocean, and as soon as Linus' wand even very much graced them, he swatted the wand away with a simple touch.

The strength in his fingers seemed immense, as Linus' entire body was thrown off balance by it.

At that moment, Lyrian lunged forward and threw several powerful kicks toward the royal.

He spun his body around, as Linus swiftly backed away.

Lyrian twirled and flipped in the air, unleashing several quicks in a matter of seconds.

His final one, a cleaver that he brought down from the ground, was too close to avoid.

Even Linus wasn't able to dodge it, and neither were his hands close enough to block.

Lyrian's kick connected for only a split second, and in that second Linus felt a devastating force make his entire body nearly collapse from the pressure.

It was as if a mountain had suddenly fallen onto his shoulder. He gasped accidentally, as he managed to slightly wave his wand.

At that moment, Lyrian's kick no longer bore any strength.

In fact, he weighed as light as a feather, as Linus swiftly moved away at that point.

He then filled his lungs with air before blowing hard toward the lightweight Lyrian.

Lyrian was blown across the room as though he were dust.

He quickly pointed his hands toward the opposite direction of his fight and unleashed a blast of flame.

This was enough to propel his body back into the arena, as he fell to the floor.

lightsnοvεl His weight was now back, but Lyrian decided to kick it up a notch.

'What an annoying fight... I'll just end this.' He mused, Enhancing his body to its maximum capacity.

He felt a new power surge through his limbs as he locked eyes with Linus.

Linus moved his wand downward, a signature key that he was using heavy gravitational magic.

Lyrian felt a heap of gravity push down on him, as the crowd questioned how he handle it.

However, the room broke out into astonished gasps as they saw Lyrian not even move an inch from the force.

Instead, he dashed forward so quick that not even Linus could react.

Lyrian Enhanced his left hand heavily, with his right hand holding his blade,

"Shock Fist!"

*BANG*

A burst of hair exited through the back of Linus' body as he wheezed out all the air left in his lungs.

He found it impossible to breathe, and even let go of his wand at that moment.

His body was lifted into the air by Lyrian's fist, and his eyes had rolled into his head.

As the crowd hushed in shock, however, Linus' eyes quickly regained their light.

He hadn't even realized that he lost consciousness, as he mused, 'I can't lose this...'

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Lunar Calendar... day 27!"

'This is the most I can go right now... in truth, it will heavily injure my body. But I must win!'

At that moment, a square quickly entered Linus' chest as a burst of energy flew out of him.

This even forced Lyrian back, as Linus now burned with the white aura around him.

As his wand flew back into his hand, Linus moved forward with incredible speed.

Lyrian didn't hesitate to do the same, as the two met in the middle for a magnificently enormous clash.

*BOOM*

The entire room shook as they continued to exchange several serious blows.

'Incredible... he's completely equal to me now.' Lyrian mused, 'But... this is not his own power. Each time he attacks, his skin is cracking from the spiritual aura. He is sacrificing his body for this. If that's the end, I'll end it even sooner.'

Lyrian dashed back once, and as he landed he closed his eyes for a split second.

"Final Formation; Dragon!"

As soon as his feet landed, his eyes flew open in an ember blaze.

He moved forward with lightning speed, blitzing Linus as he unleashed a series of slashes into the Royal's skin.

It was over 50 minor cuts in under one second.

This force was enough to launch Linus off the arena like a rag doll, as he slammed into the wall and lost consciousness.

He fell to the floor as his body returned to normal, except he bled profusely from all sides of the front of his body.

A group of kids quickly went to medicate him as Lyrian heaved an exasperated sigh.

He sheathed his blade, exiting the dragon form.

'Jeez... that's quite overpowered.' He mused, impressed with his dragon form.

'But, I didn't want to go all out here. Even though I had some more tricks up my sleeve, this was arguably my strongest. Dragon form with 100% Enhance active... Linus was much stronger than I had imagined.'

At that moment, Lyrian felt a drowsiness take over his body.

His limbs became slightly limp, as he fell to one knee.

The already stunned gasped once more as they saw this, but Lyrian wasn't going to fall.

'Others may have given into the temptation to fall to their knees, but I won't. That's the easy way out.' 

He thought to himself, slowly pushing himself back to his feet.

He faced the crowd with a smile on his face, "I won," he paused for only a moment.

Lyrian felt overwhelmed with joy at that moment, so much so that he couldn't contain his excitement any longer and burst into a wholehearted laugh.

"Hahahaha!"
