Ever imagined a 300-meter dragon with crimson flames like a miniature Sun?"
Aria watched in awe as Aengus transformed into the Blazing Overlord Dragon, his aura shaking the air with an overwhelming, intense vibration.
Towering at 300 meters, his colossal form was covered in scales that glowed with the heat of crimson fire. His massive, glowing eyes locked onto Aria, and he gave her a playful wink. His wings, each 150 meters long, spread wide, casting a shadow over the land and giving him a regal, awe-inspiring presence.
Even the trees and the ground was scorched black just by his presence.
Aria's mouth fell open in shock, her eyes wide as she took in the sheer size of him. The ground beneath her feet trembled as Aengus, now in his dragon form, leapt into the sky with a powerful thrust of his massive wings, causing the earth to shake under the force of his ascent.
The sky itself seemed to bow under the weight of his presence.
Coming to her senses, Aria smiled proudly at her man. She quickly prepared to intercept the enemies from afar.
The Overlord Dragon swiftly hovered over the tens of thousands of demons in their flying warships. There were over two hundred ships forming a long fleet.
Aengus had only one goal: to use them as resources. So, he couldn't annihilate them completely. He had to either absorb them using Gluttony or leave them half-dead.
By this point, a few demons at the front noticed a shadow looming over the clouds, but they couldn't make out what it was.
They were about to report it to their higher-ups, but the unthinkable had already begun.
Aengus gathered fire energy in his massive maw and unleashed it like a terrifying firestorm, amplified by the thrust of his wings. His intention was to weaken the demon army severely.
The firestorm vaporized the clouds into tiny water particles, scattering them and revealing Aengus' colossal Dragon form to the demons.
Terror struck the demons as they witnessed the firestorm engulf them in an instant.
"Ahhh!"
"Help!"
"General!"
Sizzle, sizzle.
The sound of flesh burning echoed, drowned by their desperate screams.
The flying warships caught fire, losing balance as their structures crumbled.
[ Strength: 3,200 ]
[ Agility: 3,300 ]
[ Defense: 3,450 ]
Once satisfied, Aengus halted his Gluttony Of Darkness. His gigantic paw slammed into the ground, causing it to collapse beneath the sheer weight and force of his now enhanced form.
The remaining archdemons, only ten of them, gazed in horror at the dragon.
Their faces paled as the reality sank in—there was no hope. No way to fight or escape this monstrosity.
They turned their desperate eyes to the only Demon General, but he too had lost all hope.
The demon general could feel the overwhelming increase in the dragon's strength after it had devoured his army.
"What kind of unfairness is this?" he thought, bitterness flooding his mind.
His thoughts drifted to Demon Lord Beelzebub, who wielded a similar ability. Of course, Beelzebub's power was far greater than Aengus's, but the general couldn't help but wonder how they were related.
Swish!
Slice, slice!
Aria, snapping out of her reverie, seized the opportunity. Blending into the void, she swiftly attacked the injured archdemons with her dagger. They barely registered what had happened before their lives slipped away.
Thud!
The mighty demon general, who had once ruled over millions, instantly dropped to his knees, begging for his life.
He didn't want to die—not now, not like this.
Aengus watched Aria's swift actions with a pleased expression before turning his attention to the kneeling demon general.
The demon general spoke, "My lord, why are you attacking us? Is your mighty self not aware of the alliance between the Dragon Emperor and us?"
"Huh?" Aengus and Aria were stunned by his words.
"So, the Dragon Emperor seems to be colluding with the demons, but why?"
Aengus played along, "Who do you work under? And tell me about the deal between the Dragon Emperor and them?" he asked in a deep, resonating voice.
