"Tsk, that was one lucky strike, you bastard. What are you waiting for? Come again!", Shin taunted Devis.
This time, both of them rushed yet again, Shin and Devis, both using Dragon Claws to see who is stronger.
This only resulted in tons of many explosions!
The highly durable arena was going to be blown into pieces and would collapse soon if this kept going on. The barrier that was protecting the audience from any direct attacks already had cracks on it and could shatter anytime soon.
Everyone was anxious, excited, and shocked as they watched the battle continue.
A lot of time had passed and there were a lot of dead bodies on the battlefield.
Most of the members of the Fang clan had either died or were in a half-dead situation.
Many members of other clans were also either dead or were injured gravely. Since Shin was no longer focusing on using Necromancy on other dead bodies, the bodies just continued to pile up.
Other than that, the battle between other lower members continued, but everyone knew, that the fight between Shin and Devis would decide who the true victor is. While Fang Clan were at a great disadvantage right now, if Devis was able to kill Shin, then they would end up becoming victorious.
Lou Shin Clan held the advantage, hence, it was necessary for Shin to win to end the battle with this advantage!
[Dragon Breath]
[Dragon Slash]
[Dragon Impact]
[Explosion]
Shin and Devis continued to attack each other, various attacks hitting on their targets.
Of course, they could have dodged but didn't think about doing so.
First of all, Shin wanted to test the strength and durability of his scales.
When he was hit by the consecutive attacks, he realized that due to the presence of the scales, he was only suffering one-tenth of the actual damage. However, this was the wrong time to test that since cracks started to form on the scaly armor.
The same was true for Devis, who instead of dodging, continued to attack, thinking that it could overpower Shin with its attacks!
*creak*
*crack*
Right now, both of their armors had a lot of cracks, visible to everyone else.
[Dragon's Roar]
[Dragon's Aura]
Shin used two of the classic skills that allowed him to demonstrate his monstrous self.
The thing is, changing into a half-dragon form would automatically enable a dragon-like aura. It is only similar to a dragon's aura but isn't a true dragon's aura.
But when Shin activated his skill, a true Dragon's aura covers his body.
Needless to say, with just the deactivation of his aura control, a tiny amount of the dragon's aura would be leaking from his body.
Shin and Devis stared at each other for a few more seconds before which Shin asked, "Devis, must we continue this…?"
"The decision is yours to make, mas-"
"Marvelous punk.", Devis stuttered.
For a second, Shin's eyes widened a bit.
'Phew, that was close. Be careful Devis, everyone is paying attention here. If you mess up, it is going to be disastrous.', Shin asked using telepathy.
'Yes, master, I will be careful. Apologies for the mistake earlier.', Devis conversed with Shin using telepathy as well.
Wait…
Just what the heck is going on!?
Why is Devis referring to Shin as master!?
And why is Shin conversing with him so easily when he seemed quite flustered earlier as if his life was in danger?
'Do you think with the amount of MP left, you will be able to get out of my attack unscathed?', Shin asked.
'Yes, master. I have sufficient MP to use defensive skills. Even with my cracked armor, I think I will be fine with one of your attacks…', Devis replied.
Shin smirked as he heard this.
As their conversation ended with telepathy, all of a sudden, both of them started to breathe heavily.
*Huff huff*
It was as if they were too tired - but this was just a show for others. In reality, the fatigue they had accumulated was very little!
Everyone had seen the battle for a long time which was now coming to end since to everyone, it seemed as if Devis and Shin had very little mana left!
'Now according to our plan, I will launch a weak blast towards Devis and he will act as if he got knocked out.'
'The attack shouldn't be too weak. It just needs to be enough strong to just push him out of the boundaries of the stadium, preferably near the forest so that he could hide or escape easily.', Shin smirked as he was about to execute the final stage of his plan!
Shin used his skill [Hyper-Dragon Blast] making it as much weak as he could. He not only used very less MP but also gave in a minimal amount of effort in order to make it strong enough to only just push Devis out of everyone's sight.
*Boom*
Shin launched a dark red-colored sphere towards Devis.
Devis, who knew about the plan, just closed his eyes and waited for the sphere to hit, however, things were not going to be as easy as they thought.
Lurion dashed and took the hit, acting as a meat shield for Devis.
"Huh?"
"Ha!?"
Both Devis and Shin were surprised when Lurion took the attack.
He was nothing but a shameless wolf who had used his ways to apparently kill Kira and make his place in the wolf brother gang.
Also, he was quite cunning. He would value his life over others, so it was rather surprising to see him protect Devis.
'He closed his eyes…'
'Does that mean he has used all his MP!?', Lurion thought as he saw Shin preparing for an attack while Devis standing like a statue with his eyes closed.
'No, if he loses, then it ends for all of us.'
'I need to buy some time.'
'With his high level, he should be able to recover at least some amount of MP, after all his recovery rate should be fast.'
'I have not lost even a little amount of HP. I can probably take on that attack! I have no choice!', these were Lurion's thoughts before he rushed in to take on the sphere that Shin launched.
