Chapter 682 Arad Vs Vlad: Part V [Ho-white Nova]
Arad and Vlad face each other beneath the moonlight. Everyone around the capital could feel the heavy magic burning in the air from them just getting ready.
Vlad opened his arms, standing in a T-pose as his familiers charged toward Arad, roaring in a massive stampede.
Arad smiled, lunging forward and cutting them one after the other with his sword, rushing toward Vlad. His draconic wings expanded alongside his tail and horns, making him even faster and stronger with greater maneuverability.
Vlad opened his palm, creating a spear of blood, and threw it toward Arad at a blinding speed.
Arad turned toward Vlad, seeing the spear rushing toward him at an inhuman speed.
[Time Slow: 99%]
Arad stopped the ground, using his void to force the particles in the air to stop moving, and sent a wave of frost, freezing all the familiers around him at once.
Even in the slowed time, the spear still was fast. Arad smiled, waving his palm, [Gravity Magic] He shifted the direction of the spear, forcing it to miss him and fly away.
The slowed time ended, and Vlad stood in place, staring at Arad with a smile, "Time magic? You're an impressive wizard as well?"
ZON! Arad teleported behind Vlad and swung the sword at his back.
SWOSH! Vlad shifted into mist and phased through Arad, grabbing his wrist, spun around, and smacked him away with a backhand, sending him spinning in place.
Arad flapped his wings to stop spinning, starring at Vlad's hands, ^Where did his sword go?^
Vlad took a step forward and punched Arad in the guts, sending him flying back a few meters.
Vlad smiled, "Barrier and Gravity magic? You have an impressive defense as well,"
Arad cracked his neck, looking at Vlad with a smile, "This is nothing," Slowly lifting a finger, "How about this?"
Thrust! A blood spear pierced Vlad's back, causing him to puke blood. He looked back, "This is my spear." He turned toward Arad with a grin, "You maneuvered it around the capital with Gravity magic?"
"It's over, Vlad," A tiny dot of light flashed above Arad's finger, engulfing the whole capital with its light.
Vlad smiled, "The white opal of the end,"
CRACK! A sword pierced Arad's back, and the ho-white nova faded. Arad could see it's Vlad sword, and he turned back to see who stabbed him.
Zia stood behind him, half naked as her main uniform was ripped in half before.
"You're alive?" Arad smiled.
"Splitting me in half won't be enough to kill me," Zia replied, twisting the sword.
SMACK! A fist hit Zia's face with a backhand, exploding in a blinding flash [Divine Cleaver]
Vlad blinked, seeing his maid fly away on the verge of death with Arad standing there with four arms. Two looked awfully thin for him.
From Arad's back, Eris's head poked out with a smile, "Don't forget, we're the same as you two." She looked around for Vlad's sword, but it was in Zia's possession.
"My poor maid, getting abused left and right by you two," He looked at them, waving his hand and sucking in her into his blood. The sword appeared in his hand.
Eris faded back into Arad's body, waiting for another opportunity to strike.
Arad looked at the wound on his chest, ^It's hard to heal and consumes a lot of blood.^ With a smile, he lifted a finger, conjuring the ho-white nova again.
"It'll take more than one stab to stop me," He pointed his finger toward Vlad.
"Alcott and the rest are around here. Shoot that, and they'll end up with more than severe burns." Vlad smiled, taking a stance.
"Try me." Arad fired the ho-white nova at Vlad.
^Bastard really fired it? Doesn't he care about the other...no? He's a vampire like me. Why did I even consider the possibility of him caring about them?^ Vlad swung his arm up, raising a large bone wall, [Dead Wall].
Puff! The moment the ho-white nova hit the wall, it faded out of existence without doing any damage. Vlad stood there confused for a second when Arad teleported in front of him, grabbing him by the face, and flying away.
"You! Tricked me," Vlad growled, trying to push Arad away from him but couldn't. Using gravity magic and the suction of the void made Arad's grip far stronger than anything Vlad had faced before.
"We're going away," Arad said, stabbing Vlad in the neck with his sword. Eris extended her arms out of Arad's chest and started unloading punches infused with divine magic at the vampire lord, tens of smites as they flew away.
After almost half a minute, Arad threw Vlad away into a desolate island in the sea, a place where they could fight without fear of harming anyone.
Vlad crashed on the ground while Arad flew in the air, his chest, face, and arms all scratched from Vlad's thrashing, and even Eris had lost an arm.
"You're a handful. Did anyone tell you that?" Arad flew down, landing before Vlad as his wounds healed and Eris's arm disappeared into his massive chest.
Vlad wiped the blood from his lips, "You bastard," The wounds left by Eris's smites were extremely hard to heal, and he was slowly feeling weaker.
He stood, staring at Arad with the skin falling off where Eris punched him, "I can feel it," Vlad smiled, "It's coming," He lifted his hands, and blood started spilling out of his wounds.
"The blood of elders,"
Arad transformed into his draconic form and landed in front of Vlad. The void peaking from between his scales started sucking air and matter toward him, cracking the ground and pulling the sand out of the island's beach.
"HAAA!" Vlad sighed, staring at Arad with a crazed smile as he lifted his hand up. His sword started sucking the blood out and growing larger until it shifted into a greatsword.
"That's the lizard face I know, the one who blew my kingdom," Vlad lunged toward Arad, swinging the great sword at his head.
Arad dodged to the side with ease, turning his massive bulk around and swatting Vlad with his large, thick tail.
Vlad landed on his feet, swinging his hand and conjuring chains of blood to tie Arad down, "Don't move!" The chains wrapped around Arad, tying his wings and arms.
Vlad pointed his sword toward Arad and ran forward, jumping into the air to stab Arad's head.
Arad opened his Jaw, biting Vlad.
Vlad forced Arad's jaw open, "To think you can still move," He growled.
A stream of white light started gushing out of Arad's throat, and the rushing heat started burning Vlad's skin as Arad unleashed a powerful energy breath, blasting the vampire king to the ground.
The ground exploded in a massive rose of fire, "Did you really think I can't kill you?"
Vlad laughed as he stood, his body regenerating, "How about this?"
Vlad disappeared, smacking Arad's arm with his greatsword. "Hard scales!" He shouted flying around and hitting Arad everywhere.
Arad growled, feeling like a human trying to catch a bee. He stood still and took the hits, following Vlad with his eyes until he found his chance.
CRACK! In the blink of an eye, Arad swung his claw and smacked Vlad to the ground, "Don't even try, in this form, I'm stronger, faster, and harder than you,"
Vlad pointed a finger toward Arad, "I was a wizard before becoming a vampire," He smiled, [Lightning Burst]
A massive lightning bolt flew from Vlad's finger and pierced a hole in Arad's left wing, "I was waiting for this," Arad lunged back, [Gravity Magic: Field] He created a zone of extreme gravity around Vlad to crush him.
[Dispell Magic] CRACK! Arad's gravity magic shattered as Vlad stood, "My proficiency is better than you. You can't beat me in a fight of magic,"
Arad flew into the sky, pointing his open jaw to the ground. A gust of black smoke started rushing out, and Vlad could feel a cold sweat dripping across his back.
"The opal star!" Vlad growled, flying up to drop Arad before he erased the whole island from the map.
The smoke coming from Arad's jaw shifted into a pure stream of white plasma, slightly golden.
Vlad flew right through it, ^Burn me if you want, I'll...^ CLAP! Vlad felt something heavy hit him in the face, pushing him toward the ground at an insane speed. ^You bastard! No, you bitch!" He screamed his lungs out, burning on the ground as Arad's breath pinned him to the ground.
Inside Arad's stomach, Eris swam in Arad's plasma, soaking it in holy magic as she looked toward the growing [Ho-white Nova] He's condensing.
The stream of plasma coming out of Arad's mouth quickly shifted into a condensed beam of energy, piercing the ground and igniting the whole island into a hellish inferno.
Arad stopped flapping his wings as the beam faded for a second, a small white dot dripping from his mouth, and trailing to the ground. He Teleported away 40 kilometers back to the kingdom's harbor, watching with Eris sitting inside his jaw.
DING! The moment the dot hit the ground, a blinding light turned the night as bright as day.
