Chapter 115: Battle Between Nolan And Draugr 2
The thick voice echoed through the silent palace ground as Draugr slowly rose from the crater he had crashed into, his hand reaching for his right nostril before blowing his left.
SPLAAAAT
Dark blood splashed onto the ground, and while it might have seemed like any other occurrence, the three Celestial Heirs who were awake and hanging on the stake all widened their eyes in shock as they stared at the dark blood on the ground.
It has to be known throughout their entire battle with Draugr that none of them had been able to draw even the slightest amount of blood from his body, despite fighting him with everything they had.
They all failed terribly.
Yet, Draugr was now bleeding from having been stepped on by Nolan just twice.
How had Nolan even been able to dodge that hammering strike so easily?
Draugr's movements had been nothing but a blur to them, yet they witnessed the attack missing entirely and Draugr's head getting crushed instead.
Just what had happened to Nolan?
"You've gotten a lot stronger than before. In fact, you're almost at my current level of strength."
"What trickery you did to achieve that within a few hours is what piques my interest..." Draugr said with furrowed brows and a faint snarl, as he looked at Nolan, who gazed back at him with the same indifferent expression.
"But don't worry. You'll be dying soon, and that means all of your secrets will be mine."
"I'll make sure to torture it out of you, watch you scream in agony as you and everything you are falls into my crushing hands. And I will make you wish for—"
"Are you done?" Nolan suddenly interrupted, instantly silencing Draugr, who looked at him in shock.
"I don't have all day. Bring out your weapon already..." Nolan said with a blank stare as he shifted his hands, and his dagger appeared.
But this time, Nolan's dagger, which had previously oozed with a crimson color, was now engulfed in a blue flame—an incredibly bright and eye-catching flame.
Nolan's crimson eyes also began glowing with the same blue light.
"How did his dagger's flame change?" The thought echoed through the minds of the godly ten.
They had fought together with Nolan earlier and knew well what the color of his dagger was.
But to see it now burning with a light blue flame caught their attention.
"Fine! If you're so impatient to die, then be my guest!" Draugr roared out with a disgusted expression as his hands immediately morphed.
In the next instant, he underwent a terrifying metamorphosis.
He began bulking up and up and up, until he reached a towering height of five meters from his previous three meters.
His claws grew longer, his skin stretched tight with even more bulging crimson veins, brimming with an incredulous amount of power.
Two gigantic fangs, like those of a saber-toothed tiger, emerged from his mouth, and his horns, which originally curved backward, changed direction, curving outwards instead.
"TELL MEEE!!!"
"HOW DO YOU WISH TO DIE!!!" Draugr roared, like a deranged beast, seemingly having lost lost his Intelligence, and he faded away into non-existence.
Less than a split second later, Nolan suddenly ducked his head toward the ground.
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIP
The water in the claw's path was immediately blown apart to nothing as Draugr's claws cut through it like a hot knife through butter.
RIIIIIP
A second rip was heard as he slashed forth with his second hand, only for it to be dodged by Nolan, who stepped away at the last possible instant.
RIIIIIP
RIIIIIP
RIIIIPPPP
Hundreds of slashes covered the entire space as Draugr unleashed a horrifying claw bombardmemt speed with all four arms, so much so that the water and the space around them were soon cleared away, leaving nothing but Draugr's crisscrossing slash marks and Nolan, who kept moving around like a flaming flicker in between Draugr's claws, avoiding each and every single slash with terrifying precision.
"What the hell!!!"
"How is that possible...?"
Murmurs rose from the onlooking godly ten as they watched Nolan weave through the domain of claws with precision.
He was surrounded tight with those four arms, which were barely inches from him, yet he dodged every single one of them without a scratch, his expression unchanging, yet the focus in them were next level.
"How! How did he grow so strong!!!" Draugr screamed internally as he unleashed every single bit of energy within him, yet he couldn't see how he was gaining any ground.
All his slashes were getting dodged, and what was even more terrifying was the fact that Nolan's eyes never shook from his own eyes at all, not even for a single moment.
The terrifying gasps and shock were so loud, the majority of those who were on the stakes ended up waking up, including King Sammodra himself.
When they witnessed the scene of Nolan easily dodging all of the slashes, they were struck with disbelief.
"How.."
"How..."
"How..."
The question rang loud and clear through Draugr's head as even his own henchmen started to grasp the shock.
They just couldn't comprehend how their prince was failing so massively, and finally, Draugr let his anger get the better of him...
"DIIIIIEEE!!!"
Instantly, his two horns thrummed with a blazing crimson light, which immediately ripped forth towards Nolan's chest.
Nolan's expression changed.
He could sense from the momentum that if those scorching rays of light landed on him, he would be ripped through. content source NovelFirempy r
And so, he resolutely grabbed the dagger in his hand as blue veins covered every inch of his skin and his dagger burst out with even more powerful blue flames.
DIIIIIEEEEEEE
The angry, beastly roar of Nolan reverberated through the entire space as he angrily slashed forward with speed, and his flaming blue dagger met with the red beam of scorching energy.
KABOOOOM
Instantly, the space was cleared if water, as Nolan's dagger cleaved through the entire beam and appeared right before Draugr's eyes.
"No! No! You! You possess the power of!!!" Draugr wanted to scream out, as he finally recognized the horrific power, that Nolan was harnessing to fight him, but before he could say it out to everyone's hearing, his voice was cut off as Nolan appeared behind him, crouched to the ground.
And slowly, he rose up right before his dagger faded away from his hands.
BAAANG
BAAANG
The sound of something landing on the ground rang out as Draugr collapsed on both knees, yet his eyes flashed, not in any regret, but in the shock of what he saw.
That energy!
That energy!!!
He thought repeatedly, his eyes shinning in ultimate horror, before he finally collapsed completely, and a loud gasp of shock could be heard as his head rolled away from his body, along with blood that spewed out massively.
But the entire world soon witnessed a strange scene as Draugr's body suddenly began disintegrating into ashes instead of remaining and it confirmed to the system.
[As I guessed, this isn't his real body...]
