Whether it was the army of Demons or the soldiers or knights on the human side, everyone was mounted with horrifying pressure that almost made them kneel.
The coverage of such an attack was terrifying to the point that Asuka almost suppressed the entire battlefield with a mere glance.
The momentum that Lucas had built crumbled and human hearts were filled with despair. A physiological burden weighed upon everyone.
Asuka let out a fierce roar making the space around him vibrate and stopped for a moment seeing a figure crawling his way.
The human that was exerted with the greatest pressure was slowly dragging his tired body towards him.
His back was bent and his hand falling down the waist held the leg and hit them to unfreeze them.
In a place, where everything had fallen into silence, that man's hoarse voice accompanied by a loud gasp of breath echoed.
"You are strong."
Lucas closed his eyes, taking a deep, heavy breath.
A Dragon Fear was more of a physiological pressure than physical. It was an attack that aimed to destroy you mentally and make you crumble.
To resist such an attack, you not only need an ample amount of experience but you also need a strong mental strength, willpower and a strong soul.
Otherwise many who ignored and dared to look into Dragon's eyes were comatose for the rest of their life, however….
He was sure that he wasn't going to be one among them.
"Your Dragon Fear almost made me give up."
"However, before that person, this is nothing."
"Before that dense murderous aura as if thousands of vicious bloodied eyes peeking into your soul, it's just a joke."
A mocking smile appeared on Lucas's lips infuriating Asuka.
Even though it was great, Lucas was damn sure that the despair he felt when standing before Sir Harris can't be compared to this guy.
If this guy is a huge wall that is hard to overcome then Sir Harris is an entire mountain that makes you give up even before you can start climbing.
'Sir Harris would have scoffed at him and laughed out holding his stomach.'
Resisting Dragon Fear was quite difficult. Lucas could feel his soul escaping and running away in fear but he held on.
No, he needs to hold on even if his body and mind were begging him to run away.
'I can't run. If I run away from fear, there will always be a demon inside my heart.'
Lucas clenched his trembling fist and hit his knees which refused to step up.
"This would be great training for my mental strength."
"Fool, you dare to laugh in the face of danger."An arrogant voice echoed across the canyon sending tremors.
"Be gone!"
"Be gone from my sight.''
"Let your existence be submerged under the mountain of corpses."
With a cold declaration that sent a chill down the spine, Black Dragon Asuka, whose eyes were filled with hatred, suddenly opened his mouth.
In the huge cavity of the mouth, the elements and mana that make up the world were sucked in the form of light and a huge grey sphere of condensed mass appeared.
DUM!DUM!DUM!DUM!DUM!DUM!
The Earth and sky vibrated, unable to withstand the power of breath, and began to scream.
If the attack was released, even a part of the Demon Army would suffer enormous damage but it didn't matter to Asuka as most of them were insects in his eyes.
Even if his army is wiped out as long as the man named Cladoc who gives him a dangerous feeling is dead, it was worth it.
"Cladoc Frostblade, bear the attack that destroyed a quarter of Elves Forest."
"Bear my wrath and be erased from this world."
"These are my final words of respect to you."
Finally, with words like making a declaration, The Breath of Destruction, the strongest attack of Asuka, was released to the world to purge everything in the path.

[Lucas POV]
I can't win.
My body is trembling just by looking at it.
This physiological fear is too much to overcome all of a sudden.
Damn!
There is no chance.
My heart is beating loudly.
What can I do?
What can I do to overcome this?
I closed my eyes and started thinking about training.
Despair wasn't something new for me. It's like a friend that often visits me and I am already familiar with it.
How can I stop my fear and overcome this?
At that moment, a sudden thought appeared in my mind.
But why do I fear?
What is the reason for my fear?
Is it death?
Wait! Am I mistaking something?
I am not dying here so why do I need to fear?
This is just a trial.
So what if I fail.
I just need to do my best.
Taking a deep breath, I opened my eyes.
I see it now.
My heart is beating not out of fear but of excitement.
I can do this. I can't give up. It's just a mere ball of fire. What more can it do?
It was then a smile appeared on my lips and my whole body started to relax thinking about Harris's words.
When you encounter danger, you can't overcome it and your heart starts to despair.
Just laugh….
Just laugh it off and say.
"You might be good enough to make me fear but you aren't good enough to make me retreat."
...…
This Breath of Destruction which started from Asuka's mouth tears the world apart and shoots straight at Lucas.
A blow with a far-reaching effect that even a person who can reincarnate again and again will shiver thinking about this.
Firepower equal to that of a mini nuclear blast was contained in it.
'I can't stop it.'
It was a thought that popped into Lucas's mind, the moment he saw it.
Cladoc bloodline ability Refraction would be blown away in front of this.
After entering Cladoc Frostblade's body, his power had risen to the point that it made him feel invincible but the power fell from the breath giving a feeling of helplessness and despair.
"I can't avoid it either."
From the moment it was fired, the result of defeat struck Lucas's mind.
A blow that interfered with the laws of the world itself.
However,
'I can tweak and interfere with the result a bit.'
Harris's words rang in his mind.
'Avoiding and defending is not the only way. Sometimes, you need to take on the attack and change its flow.'
"Let's try this."
With that thought, Lucas's eyes began to light up coldly as he began to run over a diagonal line stepping into the air using telekinesis.
At the same time, he pulled out his sword and held it with both his hands raised behind the right shoulder to the maximum.
As if the surrounding world itself was sucked in, the space narrowed around the pulled Lucas sword and all energy began to condense.
The blade vibrated as if it would break at any moment.
Foreign blood-red mana quickly descended around the sword on which Devour had been applied.
At that moment, when cohesion and vibration finally reached the maximum, Lucas's sword was lowered diagonally towards the breath of destruction that was approaching right in front of him
Swish!
A dark red line was drawn over the blank surface tearing the entire space
There was no need to cut off the entire breath that came over him. It was enough to cut off a portion of it and minimise the damage.
Lucas felt his body burnt by the intense burning light but he didn't give up and pushed forward while keeping the refraction barrier.
The space itself containing the Dragon Breath was distorted and warped along a huge friction flame that covered the sky in an instant.
The cut portion of the breath was thrown directly into the middle of the Demon army.
A blast due to the collision continued along the scream spit out by the Demons.
That moment,
The whole field of vision was dyed with white
A world full of glow silenced everything as if a sound too loud couldn't be heard.
When the sight slowly returned, the knights and soldiers opened their mouths with blank faces at the sight that followed.
A huge crater with an unpredictable end to it, and an army of demons that was about one-third of it had disappeared from the face of the earth as if an attack of God hit the place.
"You!"
Looking at the figure of Lucas, who suddenly reached right in front of him, Asuka spits out a cry full of anger.
He poured out all his might and unleashed his power but not only he couldn't even kill the target but he also sacrificed his army which hurt his pride.
Lucas then tilted his head staring straight at Dragon's widened eyes and laughed wildly.
"For a dragon, who is known as a collection of wisdom, aren't you a bit stupid to kill your army?"
"I mean, are you a dragon or just a lizard?"
