Erend felt the touch of the claws on his skin.
It meant that those claws were indeed strong enough. Coupled with a dark glow which is clearly the Magic of the Lycan.
However, Erend already knew that it would happen. So he activated [Dragon Scale] as fast as he could when he saw the Lycan move his feet.
He did feel the scratch. But Erend was not hurt.
The Adventurers who saw Erend get clawed and thrown into the air thought that Erend's life was over.
They already knew the power of those claws. So they immediately know what happened to Erend when the claw hit him that hard.
They - again - fell into great despair. The one person who had appeared suddenly had now also just died.
Erend fell to the ground with a loud thump.
"Grrhh..."
Sigewulf growled as he stared at Erend.
'What was that?' Sigewulf wondered.
Sugewulf felt his claw hit something. He was sure that he did not hurt the man.
Erend rose to his feet. His entire body which was covered in red and black scales shocked everyone who saw it.
"I knew it would be like this in the end," Erend said.
Erend started walking back towards Sigewulf.
He turned his head towards the Lycans that were lined up.
They all looked at him with angry and wary eyes. After seeing Erend's transformation, they clearly showed a changed reaction.
"So you don't want to go?" Erend asked while continuing to walk in front of them.
All he heard from the Lycans were more growls.
"Well, alright. Maybe I need to point out a few things to get you guys to take what I'm saying seriously." Erend then dashed towards Sigewulf.
His speed took Sigewulf by surprise. But because he was used to the battlefield, Sigewulf immediately sprang into action.
He also ran towards Erend with his feet covered in dark magic.
They both run at each other intending to destroy each other.
Erend jumped when he felt he was at the right distance.
Then threw a fist at Sigewulf. Sigewulf jumped while moving his claws forward.
*CLASH!*
The two of them clashed in mid-air. Then they fell back on the ground.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Claw (Lv.1) ]
A pair of claws appeared on Erend's hand. He lunged at Sigewulf and immediately swung his claws.
But Sigewulf was able to avoid the claw swing by jumping backward.
Erend was shocked by his speed.
'How could he be that fast with such a big body?'
Sigewulf doesn't let the chance when he knows Erend is in a state of shock.
He immediately charged with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, Sigewulf was in front of Erend.
He didn't use his claws this time but directly used his jaws to attack.
Sigewulf opened his jaws wide. Two rows of teeth that looked like rows of daggers move toward Erend from two directions simultaneously.
[ Skill activated: All Fire-based Power (Lv.1) ]
*ZWOOOOSSSHHH!*
Erend shot the flames straight into Sigewulf's wide-open throat.
The Lycan immediately jumped back and screamed in pain.
Flames flared from within his mouth. Dark Magic emanated from all over Sigewulf's body to bring out the fire that burned his throat.
The Lycans and the human Adventurers had the same reaction.
They were shocked to see what happened.
It turned out that the red and black scales weren't the only thing they saw come from the man.
He could also use the power of fire like a sorcerer.
What's more, it is a powerful fire power.
Muran - one of the Adventurers - who was a sorcerer knew that well.
Grim widened his eyes. The realization started to come to him when he saw what Erend could do.
'Could it be... It was actually the man who killed Bjarki's pack?'
Erend grinned at Sigewulf who was panting after extinguishing the flames.
"Your throat looks like it's not feeling well right now. Can you still scream?" Erend said in a mocking tone.
He dashed towards Sigewulf.
Sigewulf was now enveloped in a thin black aura because he knew his enemy was stronger than he thought.
The Lycans held their breath when they saw their leader finally reveal his true power.
Even though it was only a fragment of what Sigewulf could do, they knew how strong Sigewulf was now.
However, they did not expect what happened next.
Erend lunged at Sigewulf. His two hands swung out with burning claws.
After that, Erend spit fire from his mouth.
*ZWOOOOSSSHHH!*
The flames instantly enveloped Sigewulf's vision. Erend then activated another Skill.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Wings (Lv.1) ]
A pair of Dragon wings appeared on his back.
Then he flapped his wings to lunge his body forward.
Erend caught Sigewulf by the neck. Then he flapped his wings again to push himself up while carrying Sigewulf.
Sigewulf of course immediately rebelled. But then Erend swooped down at top speed.
*BOOM!*
Erend slammed Sigewulf to the ground. Thunderous sounds and huge vibrations followed in the aftermath.
[ Skill activated: All Fire-based Power (Lv.1) ]
Erend shoots fire from his hand at Sigewulf.
Erend who was standing right beside Sigewulf after slamming him spouted fire with great power. The flames he spits out soared high into the sky.
The Lycans widened their eyes.
They growl and bark. The voices were full of concern and fear for their leader.
The human Adventurers also stared at the flames.
Their expressions were erratic as they had just experienced shocking things one after another.
Nelvad was the first to get up and realized that this situation was beyond their reach.
He ran over to Mei who was still lying down and immediately took her away.
"Hey, we have to get out of here!" Nelvad talks to Ro and Muran.
His voice was a whisper because he didn't want the Lycans to notice their attempt to escape.
Ro immediately tried to stand up. She wiped her tears.
Muran ran to Goldid to take him away from there.
Ro had already exerted a large amount of her Magic. So that now Zirles can at least walk with Ro's help.
The seven human Adventurers fled away from the battle which was far from a level they could handle.
