Chapter 372 Battle Of The Union X - Final Battle II



Summoning all her strength, she unleashed a torrential stream of scorching flames from her mouth.

The flame looked so dashing with its noble colour and nature and Velian didn't even feel a single bit got because dragon breath wasn't supposed to be hot in the first place.

It was just really bizarre, feeling as if the flames were not hot, but it managed to burn even the most hardest thing because of how dangerous it was.

"She looks like a cannon," Velian thought as the intense danger rippled through the air, a testament to her newfound power.

Simultaneously, Velian channelled his most potent magical energy, a dazzling display of brilliance and raw power.

The magic surged from his fingertips, converging with Aurora's dragon breath as they collided with White Other's open mouth.

"Yes! It's a hit, just like I thought he is weak in the places, that fur does not protect him," Velian said happily, as the heavenly beast started spitting a clear liquid, which was blood.

As the combined forces of fire and magic engulfed White Other's body, an eerie transformation took hold.

The massive tiger convulsed violently, its once majestic presence reduced to a writhing mass of torment. The ground trembled beneath them, mirroring the inner struggle taking place within White Other's body.

Valerie's eyes widened in shock as her companion succumbed to Velian and Aurora's audacious attack.

The bond between rider and beast became a double-edged sword, as the pain and turmoil experienced by White Other coursed through Valerie's own being.

Desperation etched its mark across Valerie's face as she struggled to regain control. Her voice quivered, a mixture of fury and anguish.

"You went ahead and did it now, Velian," It was a voice filled with anger, which sent shivers through the spine of Aurora, but she wasn't afraid because, with her, Velian was there to protect her.

"I warned you to stop this, you didn't, and now your pet had to prey the price and next will be you," As the giant body of the White Other fell on the floor, Velian muttered while Aurora also gestured at her with a grin showing together with her father, she is unstoppable.

The air crackled with tension as she braced herself for retaliation.

Velian, sensing an opportunity, wasted no time. With determination blazing in his eyes, he mustered his strength and pushed through the chaos, closing the distance between him and Valerie. His voice rang out, filled with conviction.

"Valerie! It's over! We won't let you continue down this dark path any longer!"

Valerie's gaze snapped towards Velian, her anger flaring even brighter. "You fools! You think you can defy me? You'll regret this!"

But Velian remained resolute. Ignoring Valerie's threats, he focused his attention on teaching Aurora, his loyal cute little daughter and partner in this battle.

Locking eyes with her, he issued a command, urgency evident in his tone.

"Aurora, aim your remaining dragon breath at the amulet Valerie is wearing! We have to break her hold on its power! I'll hold her off!"

Aurora nodded, her fiery eyes gleaming with determination. She unleashed a primal roar, summoning the remnants of her dragon's breath. Concentrating her energy, she directed it towards Valerie's amulet, the source of her formidable strength.

And got ready to shoot at her, when the time is right.

Meanwhile, Velian closed in, his hands gripping Valerie's arms firmly.

He braced himself against her resistance, his muscles straining with the effort to restrain her. Their faces mere inches apart, he stared deep into her eyes, his voice tinged with a mix of compassion and resolve.

"Valerie, we could have been friends, if not for you trying to act all selfish and awaken the demon lord," He twisted her hand in a weird direction because, unlike speed and accuracy, Velian had the advantage of pure raw strength.

Valerie's eyes flickered with a momentary hesitation, a brief glimmer of the person she once was.

But in an instant, her rage surged forth once more, and she struggled against Velian's grasp.

"Foolish boy! You know nothing of power! I am unstoppable! No one can take this from me!" Velian didn't let his guard down, and he did whatever it takes for him to kill her right now without showing any hesitation because he knew in front of her, hesitation meant death.

"Aurora, Now!" With a clear aim and a clear trajectory, Aurora had absolutely no chance of missing her dragon breath.

And so she didn't.

Her fatal breath directly contacted the amulet causing her to be thrown back a few meters back and hit the wall.

The force of the impact was tremendous, leaving behind a gaping hole in her chest.

Blood spilt from Valerie's mouth, staining her trembling lips as she struggled to catch her breath.

Despite the grievous wound inflicted upon her, her focus remained fixed on the amulet. With trembling hands, she managed to grasp it, her eyes filled with a mix of anguish and fury.

Valerie's gaze met Velian's, and within her eye, a flame of intense hatred burned. Her voice trembled with the weight of her emotions as she spoke, her words laced with the bitterness of betrayal.

"I hate both of you," Valerie whispered hoarsely, her voice strained and filled with anguish.

"You killed me like this, and for what? But I... I will forgive you, on one condition. Give this amulet... to the next hero."

Her demand hung in the air, a poignant plea wrapped in pain and sorrow. Aurora and Velian exchanged uncertain glances, unsure of how to respond to Valerie's last request. They mustered the courage to voice their doubts.

"But if you're gone... the parasitic cells you controlled will die too, won't they? So the demon lord and hero won't be born," Velian questioned, his voice quivering with concern.

Valerie's lips curled into a melancholic smile, the pain etched on her face. "No... that's not the case," she replied, her voice fading. "They will live on, even in my death."

"Nothing can stop the purge now!"

With those final words, Valerie's strength waned, and her life slipped away.

The room fell into an eerie silence, broken only by the distant crackling of flames. Aurora and Velian stood there, overwhelmed by the weight of Valerie's words and the grim realization that their battle was far from over.
