Chapter 698 Chad's Duel ( Part 3 )
??Vale couldn't help but sigh in amazement after seeing the transformation. The one that Chad did wasn't an Arcane Spell or just a Transformation Art assisted by a Spell Model. It was a genuine transformation through the Dragon Blood that he received from the two dragons imprisoned beneath the castle.
It was completely different from his Shapeshifting Spell!
The rest of them were also amazed by the sight of it. They could easily tell that the Aura coming from Chad was from a genuine Draconic Blood, something that shouldn't exist in the Human Realm!
Nonetheless, because there was an Immortal living in this castle, it wasn't too unbelievable that such a being existed here. As a matter of fact, they probably wouldn't be surprised if they learned that this castle also had Vampires, Elves, Spiritual Beings, or other Demihumans.
"So that's what you're relying on, Half-Dragon!"
Sir Geoffrey was shocked and amazed to see Chad's Dragonoid Form.
He had read about them in the books, but he had never seen anything like it before. This creature should be a thing of the past when the Arcane Paths weren't separated into twelve yet.
Then Geoffrey decided to use his secret technique as well… It was something he had prepared once he got a chance to fight the Immortal.
However, with Chad's current show of power, he knew that he could get defeated if he didn't go all out in this battle.
Bang!
The clash of his sword and the dragon claw was heavier than he expected.
He realized that Chad had become stronger and faster with that transformation.
Luckily, he managed to buy enough time for his ultimate technique!
Soon, Geoffrey's sword started glowing, emitting a bright and pure light.
In a moment, his Golden Shield Aura started glowing, emitting a strong and holy force! It surprised many of them since they started feeling Holy Energy! It shouldn't be something he could use with his Arcane Path!
Geoffrey's Aura reached its peak, but he was emitting a sacred presence!
Nonetheless, there was no time to be surprised as he finally completed his technique and revealed a Holy Sword formed by his Aura and Holy Energy!
The sword floated above him, and it was several times bigger than his physical sword.
Chad wasn't intimidated by this attack as they both launched their attacks.
Chad, who was in his Dragonoid Form, unleashed a blast of fire and lightning, aiming to incinerate Sir Geoffrey!
Sir Geoffrey's Holy Sword, on the other hand, unleashed a wave of light and searing Aura, aiming to annihilate Chad.
Boom!
They collided with a loud explosion, a blast of light, and soon, chaotic energy spread everywhere.
The mix of draconic force, elements, holy energy, and Aura created a field where Arcane Energy couldn't be properly controlled!
However, the Holy Sword that clashed against Chad's Dragonoid Form shattered into a million pieces of light as Geoffrey coughed out some blood because of the backlash!
Although they both felt a surge of pain, Geoffrey was the one kneeling on the ground while Chad was still in his Dragonoid Form, and he even appeared beside Geoffrey and patted the man's shoulder.
Even without Vale's announcement, everyone could tell that the winner was Chad.
He had survived the final attack and had defeated Sir Geoffrey.
"So he's a Holy Arts practitioner and an Aura Master." Sir Roland muttered as he didn't expect this as well.
"He hid it so well…" Ceres muttered. She was also a Holy Arts Practitioner, so she was sensitive to Holy Energy. However, she had never felt this from Sir Geoffrey until the last moments in battle.
"Is he a Dual Practitioner then? It's weird… I think it's only through the help of an Artifact. What do you think?" Miya asked the two veiled individuals behind her.
These two were actually elders of the Church of the Lord of the Secrets and weren't just random guards sent to protect her.
After some hesitations, they also expressed their thoughts.
And their answers surprised everyone present.
"He used three Arcane Paths just now, Miya… You really need to redo your training after we return."
"That's right. He used the Combat Arts to release his Aura… The Holy Arts to summon the Holy Energy, and the Alchemy Arts to summon that sword… That sword was simply disguised as a manifestation of aura. However, Alchemy formed it using the dust, moisture, and air in the surroundings."
As they said this, Miya and the other representatives couldn't help but look at them in surprise.
None of them had noticed it at all!
Of course, no one wanted to admit that they missed that, so they only shut their mouths and waited for Vale to announce the end of the duel.
Indeed. After Sir Geoffrey recovered some of his strength, he looked at the Immortal as he accepted his defeat.
Vale then declared Chad as the winner.
Of course, Vale didn't forget to praise both the fighters.
Chad and Sir Geoffrey then looked at each other, and it could be seen that they both respected each other.
"Are you going to remain in that form?" Geoffrey.
"Yes… I already transformed, and that consumes energy… I might as well use it to its limit." Chad replied.
Sir Geoffrey then took off his necklace and handed it over to Chad.
"This is my wager, Chad. This is a magic artifact that I purchased long ago in an Auction. It has an ability called Aura Amplifier. It can increase the power and range of your aura, and allow you to use different aura techniques. Lastly, it can also store and release your aura, and act as a backup source of energy. It is a rare and valuable artifact, and I hope you will find it useful."
'I'm not an Aura Master though…' Chad thought but he still accepted the necklace and examined it.
He saw that it was a silver chain with a pendant. The pendant was a round metal disc, with a spiral pattern and a gem in the center. The gem was clear and colorless, but it glowed faintly with a golden light.
