Chapter 118

Mikael stood up. He used his Spear and helped his partner. He dashed and black lightning followed him. 

Axelle started to get frustrated. He knew that his plan would fail if he didn't take the King to Fafnir. 

"Ah fuck it. I don't want to use this Skill because I lose my reasoning whenever I fully transform. However I- ack!"

Furrneka slashed him on his back. He couldn't continue his sentence.

"You!! You're the Grandchild of that f*cking Cat!"

"You know my Grandpa? Don't talk bad to him!!"

She aimed her Black Serpent to burn the man but it was already late. 

"Gahaha! I will keep my promise to the Patriarch! I will kill you!!"

Axelle's face was starting to deform. His shoulders and legs were enlarging. He walked on four and started to dash. He opened his fangs to bite Furrneka. Mikael took his woman and dodged the incoming attack. 

They stumbled and rolled. When they stop, they saw Axelle fully transformed. 

He became a Dragon. His size was around four meters with a length of 10 meters. His tail was swaying like a dog who saw its toy.

*Graahh!!*

He roared. Axelle was now a ferocious beast. When he didn't have the Crystal Heart, his transformation was incomplete and his reasoning was gone. However, he realized that this time, he didn't lose it. 

His mind was clear and he could control his body fluidly. In fact, he felt like this was his real form. The True Form of a Dragon.

"Gahaha this is great!"

He ran in their direction. He wanted to kill the enemies that injured him. He would make them suffer like how he did it.

"If I know that I can control this form. I shouldn't have escaped, I should have killed those three!!"

He remembered the face of three people that beat him and forced him to escape. For a king like him, that was the most humiliating experience that he ever had. 

"I will show that I'm the strongest!"

He decided to kill the man first. He could easily kill Furrneka but he believed that Mikael was a Hunter that could fight him one on one. He was weaker than Axelle and his level was lower. However, Axelle felt that this man was dangerous. He could face him equally even though he was weaker.

He needed to kill this man first because he knew that Mikael would become stronger if he didn't finish him now. 

Mikael saw the Dragon coming at him. He summoned his Spear and activated two of his Skills. The Lightning Strength and the Lightning Spear. He used his full power to stop the Dragon's attack.

"Aaaahhh!!"

He shouted and threw his Spear. It hit the enemy but the Dragon only shrugged. The Dragon's scales were heat resistant so the explosion didn't affect him much. Axelle continued his charge. 

"Nyah!?"

Mikael left Furrneka and confront the Dragon head-on. He didn't want Furrneka to face this danger. 

"Furrneka! I will lure his attention! Use your full speed and take the King! Leave this place now!"

Furrneka was stunned hearing it. 

Mikael ran. He won't let anyone die on him. He would rather sacrifice his life to save the people important to him. That was his motto. 

The Dragon used his boulder-like arms and crushed him. Mikael evaded it and counterattack it. He utilized his Spear to stab Axelle but another arm came at him. 

"Gah!"

He flew in midair and crashed to the walls. He felt like his ribs were broken and he started to cough blood. But instead of being sad, he smiled. He saw that Furrneka and King Timar were gone. 

They escaped and left him.

He did his part, he could now rest. He could meet his family again…

"Hehe. At least I save Furrneka and King Timar. I Guess this my time..."

He saw the Dragon flying and it was starting to fall to crush him. Mikael closed his eyes, he would gladly take his destiny. 

He knew that no matter what struggle he did, he couldn't defeat a True Dragon. They were on another level of creatures. 

"I'm sorry Klein… I'm sorry…"

He tried to say the name of the woman that he loved but he didn't do it. He realized that he regretted many things.

"No… No! Not now! I still not saying my feelings! I need to see Niña!"

He tried to stand up, he realized that one of his legs was crushed and bent in an odd direction. However, he didn't stop, he would use everything to live! 

He forced his battered body to move. He used his remaining mana to cast an explosion. He knew that he would receive another wound but it was better than dying here. He pointed it close to him. 

*Boom!*

He drifted meters away to escape the falling Dragon. The Dragon stopped his falling and wielded his wings to land safely, he was not an idiot to let his body crashed on the ground without any reason. 

"Ugh!, I guess no matter what I do I will die here, but I will use the last ounce of my strength to live! Fourth Skill! Wake Up already! I'm gonna die, okay!"

He lifted his Spear and point it to the charging Dragon. He hoped that his last Skill would activate. He didn't blink and he watched the Dragon coming at him. He would stab it with all of his strength. 

The Dragon opened its mouth. Axelle would eat him alive.

*Roar!!*

When the Dragon reached two meters, he sensed a killing intent coming behind him. He stopped and saw dozens of knives flying on him. The knives hit him and pierced his body. 

He didn't know why, but his invincible body had been hurt by these meager knives. But he roared to present that it didn't hurt him. 

He stared at his surroundings and he saw that Mikael was missing. He couldn't find his body.

He looked left and right but he couldn't see him, instead, he saw another dozen of knives coming. He swung his tail to parry the attacks. 

"… I see. So this is where you're hiding. I thought you'll never show yourself because you're afraid of me."

The Dragon talked. He couldn't see the enemy but he could sense her presence. His Dragon Sense was doing its job to locate his enemy.

"Looks like I don't need to hide anymore. So you've become a complete Dragon huh. The Dragons, the Kings of mana… How does it feel realizing that your dreams will be your downfall? "

Niña appeared holding Mikael. She was frustrated, she wanted to kill this man for what he did to Mikael. However, she knew that it would be hard killing this Dragon alone.
