Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 854: Vol V Chapter 214

Many Legendary Masters often dabbled in other professions to find the path that led to the Demigod Realm. By examining other peoples' paths, they found inspiration to create their own.

For example, sword wielder Leon Igor was an extremely powerful patron saint. Even if he did not use fencing or his sword and used his own divinity to fight enemies, he could still defeat many other Legendary Masters.

Another example would be Isuka School of Magic's founder and the revivalist of the Magic Bomber profession, Felix Isuka. He was not just a powerful legendary mage who specialized in fighting but was also a strong paladin. Although he was not very good at concealment, he would not lose to the average paladin in the Legendary Realm in terms of horse-riding, archery and the like.

Clito's side profession was being a monk. Originally, he could not match up to his original standard of sword fighting. However, with enough time, he was able to completely convert his fighting strength to "qi," which caused him to temporarily evolve into a strong legendary monk. He had used this very technique and focused all his energy into immersion and had hit the evil dragon hard. All his power had shot through the dragon's body like a large and scary bomb, creating an internal explosion within the dragon.

This was a special tactic, and the dragon suffered heavily. Everyone noticed that there were chunks of meat that came spewing out along with the dragon's fresh blood as if parts of its innards had been shed.

"This time… the dragon should die!"

"Its innards are already destroyed; how could it still live?"

"If it still doesn't die, it must be immortal!"

The aristocratic knights chattered amongst themselves excitedly, and the atmosphere lightened slightly. Everyone was of the opinion that no animal could withstand such a strong attack!

Either that or the animal did not have any crucial point that could be hit.

However, things did not go as predicted. Although the dragon continued bleeding, screaming and vomiting, it did not succumb to death. Instead, after emitting a few cries of pain, it stood steady once again with a deadly look in its eyes. Its body's stance also seemed to strengthen.

"How… how is this possible?"

"This does not make sense…"

"My goodness!"

The aristocratic knights shouted out in shock. Even Clito was at a loss for words.

Even if it did not die, with such a heavy blow, it should be paralyzed or motionless, how can this be possible?

Well, their opinions were not the most important thing here. The fact was that something that they did not believe in had happened right before their very eyes!

The dragon had just been dealt an immersion blow by a Legendary Master, but not only did it survive, but it also recovered extremely quickly.

What kind of immortal dragon was this? The whole situation was unbelievable!

Complaining would not solve the situation, so Clito and Asner took the dragon's healing time as an opportunity to launch their mightiest attack. Their knives and sword wove together like a giant web and wrapped itself around the dragon.

Blood flew and flowed continuously; the dragon continued to yell ferociously. It was too late for it to stop this huge attack.

With Clito's previous attack, even with his ability to stay alive, the dragon had not recovered enough to resist this combined attack. Within ten seconds of being tied up, many new blistering wounds opened up on the dragon's body, and some of its claws even broke off.

However, this was all the victory Clito and Asner would get.

Once the dragon managed to fully heal its innards, it glanced at its broken claw and bellowed furiously.

With that, its power started increasing rapidly.

Although Clito noticed that the dragon was gaining strength, he did not think too much about it and thus suffered for this complacency. He was used to being stronger than his opponents and did not anticipate that he would not be able to match up to the dragon's strength. The dragon used his strength to send Clito flying like a soccer ball, and he was sent flying backwards.

Luckily, Asner was by his side. She immediately flew upwards and caught Clito midair, stealthily turning a few times in the air to get rid of the dragon's power.

Even before she had caught her breath, however, the dragon had already opened his mouth to let out a roar.

The roar was accompanied by red hot dragon's breath.

Perhaps it was the dragon's innate battle abilities or coincidentally good timing, but the dragon managed to capture Clito and Asner's weak point and was set to inflict some serious injuries on them.

Just at this moment, the duo's saviors arrived.

"Stop! Now!"

With an angry growl, Leon's voice suddenly rang in the air as he materialized before Clito and Asner. He managed to use his single sword to extinguish all the dragon's breath without leaving any trace behind.

This sword was created out of his own body's strength and skill.

Even so, the sword had surprisingly high amounts of power, which rendered one speechless. Not only would one begin to question their sight and take on life, but they would also think that they were watching miracles take place.

The dragon was not so easily stumped. Once he saw that his breath had been extinguished, he immediately bellowed, lowered his head and charged towards Leon.

This giant creature's footsteps were thunderous and devastating as if he could crush all three of the humans at one go. However, Clito and Asner's facial expressions remained calm and indifferent.

If it were just the duo, they may have been more alert. However, they knew that the dragon's attacks were but child's play to Leon. Without using his full strength, a wave of Leon's sword sent the air in front of them twisting and turning. If one were to look closely, one would realize that the air was shaping into a box that encapsulated the dragon.

Given enough time, perhaps the dragon could find a way to escape this trap. However, Leon was fast and efficient. With a cold smile, he waved his sword for the third time.

A brilliant beam of light shone from the sword, piercing through the box created in the air and hitting the evil dragon directly.

The dragon's movements suddenly halted, and an obvious, giant wound emerged from the top of its head to the bottom of its neck.

This time, it seemed like the dragon was finally going to die.
