1032 Dragon roar?

1032 Dragon roar?

Dragon roar? What the heck was she talking about?

Liam was already at his limits so he did not have the mental space to think about the random words of advice.

He continued to push himself and used the full extent of his mana core and his soul to attack the frozen creature.

On the other side, the draconian princess did not let up. She continued to shout at him the same thing over and over.

"Don't hold back now. This is dangerous. Finish the fight quickly. The Ison King might have some other dormant ability. Use your draconic breath. NOW!"

"Foolish brat! Use your dragon breath!"

"Just let it rip! What are you waiting for?"

The woman was practically hissing in anger at this point and Liam continued to ignore her as he still had no idea what she was talking about.

And then it happened.

The two of them simultaneously realized something!

What if he did not know he even possessed this ability in the first place?

The draconian princess gasped in shock. Not because something like this couldn't happen but because this human being in front of her was able to acquire a skill as powerful as dragon breath without even realizing it.

At the same time, Liam also stumbled once again. Hearing the same skill name over and over finally triggered something in his brain.

Dragon breath? Where had he heard it before?

Perhaps because he was so tired, and did not have any energy to actively think about anything, a few stray thoughts randomly popped up in his brain.

The tutorial game...

His two dragon soul minions...

They had the skill dragon breath...

At the final moment, when the game was about to shut down, he had sacrificed these two dragon soul minions, his only two dragon soul minions.

He had used them to heal and strengthen his soul and break through to the next stage in soul strength.

It was a huge price he had to pay but it was only because of this he was able to get out with everything intact and not start from scratch all over again.

It was also these two soul minions that possessed this so-called dragon breath ability the princess was screaming about.

In fact, she seemed so confident that he had these skills in his repertoire that Liam couldn't help but feel that he was missing something.

The problem was... even if he possessed these two abilities at the moment, how was he going to use them when he had no idea how to execute them?

There were no system prompts available to easily activate them. They were not his innate skills. They were not his trained skills. These were not engraved on his soul like the [Stealth] and the [Inspect] skills.

So how on earth was he supposed to execute them?

Liam's brain twinged with pain as he was unable to think clearly any longer.

With his foggy brain and unfocussed eyes, he continued to send out one attack after another at the Ison King while his mind still lingered back on the skill that he was supposed to have.

[Soul Freeze]

He sent the next attack, once again freezing the Ison King in the spot.

He was about to bring down the black dragon sword on the immobile Level 500 monster when suddenly a powerful aura burst out.

The next instant, it was Liam's turn to freeze!

The damned Ison King had already undone his [Soul Freeze] attack!

"Impossible!" Liam trembled. His soul attack was strong and technically the creature should not be able to withstand it, so how was this happening?

Did he somehow become stronger?

No. Liam exhaled sharply. He was becoming weaker. He needed to finish this fight soon. Otherwise, there would be no way out for him.

Maybe he had one or two more soul attacks left in him?

But what about after that? He needed attack power. Something strong and powerful... like the dragon breath!

The dragon breath! The dragon breath! He needed it!

Right at this moment, the draconian princess's voice boomed loudly once again.

"Look into your soul!"

"I could sense draconian runic mana seeping into your other attacks.

If it was not intentional, then it only makes sense that the skill is engraved in your soul!"

"Look into your soul!"

Liam stilled.

As he was about to attack the Ison King one more time with his [Soul Freeze], suddenly everything clicked in his mind and he remembered a skill that he possessed back in the game which he had never used.

The [Soul Devour] skill!

This was the last soul skill that he had in his skill list but from the moment he had received it, it had always been greyed out.

He had been unable to activate it no matter how much he tried.

Perhaps when he had finally broken through to the next level in his soul strength, he had unlocked this skill and acquired the dragon breath skill from the two dragon soul minions he had devoured?

Numerous thoughts flashed past Liam's brain at lightning speed.

However, none of these were important at the moment. The only thing that was important was how to use this skill right now, right this second.

Liam clenched his fist and prepared for the worst.

Using whatever remaining willpower and mental strength he had, he split the soul essence in his possession into three streams.

For the next attack, he sent one of the streams toward the Ison King for [Soul Freeze], one for creating [Soul Shield], and using the last one, he tried sensing his own soul and searching and analyzing it from top to bottom.

This was easier said than done because searching for something in one's soul without being aware of it was like trying to navigate a foggy forest with a blindfold on.

Moreover, Liam's soul was not intact. As soon as he reached inside and fumbled around...

Argggghhhh!

The depth of the injury that already plagued his soul once again gripped him, sending chills down his body and making him tremble in agony.

It was an unbearable pain, worse than anything he had faced so far, and Liam could not hold on no matter how much he tried and no matter what the stakes were.

It was simply impossible to do or feel anything past it. Even if he tried to do this for one more moment, he felt as if he was going to burst and split into nothingness.

He had really reached his limit and all he had come across were the skills he already had in his possession.

"FUCK!" Liam cursed out loud. He had to let go now.

But right at that moment, he felt a small burst of energy and he suddenly felt something at the last minute he withdrew his consciousness from his soul.

It was a small rune, something that looked weird. However, from within it, he could sense a lot of power pulsing.

Even though he was not able to hold on, he had managed to sense it, the skill that was part of his soul, something that he did not even know existed in the first place.

Liam looked up in shock. He had done it?

However, it was already too late. The Ison King summoned something that made a powerful aura envelop the creature once again. It was about to get out of the soul freeze.

Liam knew that he had finally run out of time.

This time he really did not hold back, and sent the most powerful [Soul Freeze] that he could muster.

The impact of the skill made his own soul shudder. The Ison King at the receiving end also got the brunt of the attack.

This time the creature even screeched in pain!

"I got you bitch!" Liam shouted loudly.

The next instant, he reached into his soul one more time, grabbed onto the skill that was etched on it, and...

RRRROOOOOAAAARRRRR!
