“Regardless of the human’s thods, the human has proven his strength. Therefore, we no longer have the right to look down on him,” a Mid-level Rank 4 True Dragon within the group spoke.
Although seeing so much strength in such a small body was shocking, the dragons couldn’t deny the truth before their eyes.
Size didn’t equal strength; it never did.
“So what?” Gry argued with a dark look. “The human might be stronger than we anticipated, but it doesn’t change the fact that he is still an outsider and not welcod here.”
“It seems if I want sothing done, I have to do it myself!” Gry stated as he stared into the distance with a cold glint.
Shortly after, the High-level Rank 4 True Dragon broke away from the dragon crowd and entered the battle ring.
“Gry, I…”
“Get the fuck out!” Gry snapped at Hedwig, slapping him out of the battle ring with a powerful tail sweep. “You’re a goddamn embarrassnt to us dragons! How dare you let a re human make a fool out of you! Sit the fuck out there and watch how I do things!”
“I will be your opponent, human!” Gry declared after shifting his attention to Vaan.
“Alright,” Vaan calmly replied, but his eyes narrowed.
He could tell that the Gry didn’t have any good intentions. Cruelness was practically seeping out of his body.
Furthermore, he was a High-level Rank 4 being.
Thus, he couldn’t use normal thods to deal with Gry. His opponent was a little too strong for him this ti.
However, defeat wasn’t certain.
There were various thods the weak could use to defeat the strong. The real issue was to pick the most effective and efficient thod and use it before the opponent could have the advantage.
Boom!
Even before the battle started, Gry imdiately enhanced himself with magic, causing various runes to appear all over his body.
“You will pay for humiliating a dragon, human,” Gry spat in a low tone before Vaan sensed danger the next mont.
Extre Lightning Flash Step!
Boom!
Vaan quickly retreated with a high-rank movent skill before his original location exploded like a volcanic eruption, sending hot lava of horrendous temperatures into the air.
No doubt, the lava was much hotter than his magma; he would have received serious burns from it.
Although Gry had initiated the start of the battle with a sneak attack, Vaan didn’t complain, nor did he have a reason to besides wanting to make a fool of himself.
As Jergag ntioned, there were no rules, and all thods were permitted as long as no one died in the fight.
In other words, lethal attacks were permitted as long as they didn’t kill.
Nevertheless, Gry didn’t give Vaan a chance to catch a break. Right after launching his sneak attack, he quickly pursued Vaan with a powerful flap of his wings.
Although Gry’s dragon body was huge in comparison to Vaan, he was also very nimble.
Even so, Vaan used his high-rank movent skill to avoid Gry’s lethal claws that threatened to shred his body into parts.
“What’s wrong, human?! Where’s your arrogance now?!” Gry sneered with ridicule, “All you can do is run like a rat with its tail tucked between its legs!”
“And you, a noble, powerful, and big lizard, can’t even land a single blow on this little rat. So who’s the bigger joke, I wonder?” Vaan casually retorted, intending to provoke his opponent.
Arrogance and anger clouds one’s judgnt.
“How dare you!” Gry roared furiously.
“Heh, am I wrong?” Vaan snickered as he continued his provocation.
Safe to say, it was far too easy to provoke Gry. The giant lizard’s discrimination against humans was too strong.
Any little thing could upset the big lizard, not to ntion direct insults and contempt.
“I’ll kill you!”
Gry issued a dragon roar that shook Vaan’s soul, stunning him briefly before taking the chance to close the distance between them.
Vaan’s eyes narrowed instantly.
Although Gry’s dragon roar was nothing compared to the ninth dragon lord’s, the ability to stun him was dangerous nonetheless.
In a split second, he imdiately decided to cause countless earthen rocks in the area to explode into thick dust clouds, covering his figure within.
“Do you think you can hide, you little rat?!” Gry blindly charged into the dust cloud, unaware portions of the harmless dust clouds were transmuted into various powdered tals.
So were extrely sharp, while others easily lted at room temperature but retained their solidity due to Kinetic Energy Manipulation.
Nevertheless, Gry inhaled a bunch of powdered tals before his powerful wings swept the dust clouds out of the area and cleared the view.
However, Vaan had already created distance, appearing over a hundred yards away with his Extre Lightning Flash Steps.
Roar!
Gry briefly stunned Vaan with another powerful dragon roar.
If Vaan’s ntal resistance weren’t high, he would have been stunned for a longer period, making the situation much more dangerous.
Fortunately, his ntal resistance was very high.
Even so, against a mana-infused sound attack, plugging his ears wasn’t enough to block it from stunning him.
Boom! Boom!
More earthen rocks were gathered and exploded into dust clouds, covering Vaan’s presence once.
Gry was infuriated by the repeated tricks but chased after Vaan nonetheless, inhaling more doses of Vaan’s powdered tals in the process.
As Gry moved rapidly in his pursuit, the sharp tals were causing microscopic cuts throughout his internal system and fastening the spread of rcury into his system.
After the ga of cat and mouse was repeated several tis, Gry’s wings finally didn’t move the way he wanted, causing him to plunge into the magma sea.
A mont later, he resurfaced from the magma sea with alarm.
Within half an hour, Gry experienced various motor movent problems, vision and hearing impairnt, and different levels of paralysis throughout his body.
Furthermore, the symptoms only beca more severe with ti.
He was incapacitated and couldn’t fight.
“Sothing is wrong with my body! What the hell did you do to , human?!” Gry imdiately blad Vaan for his predicant. He coughed up blood the next mont before roaring, “How dare you use poison!”
“Oh, how the tables have turned, eh? I guess rcury is still effective, even against dragons,” Vaan casually comnted before saying, “I suggest you concede defeat before your situation becos life-threatening.”
“I am a proud dragon! I would rather die than yield to a despicable human like you!” Gry roared furiously.
