Shakuni was impressed by Ronan , there was just something about the kid that was different from any individual he had ever met , but he could not figure out what it was exactly.
Smiling he said ” I am shakuni , the greatest warrior on this planet … who are you brat? “.
The temperature in the room feel by a few degrees when shakuni boldly claimed himself to be the strongest in the planet , it was an extremely prideful introduction and one that was meant to put psychological pressure on Ronan .
Ronan looked towards his father for approval to rebuke shakuni and when Alexander nodded , Ronan replied equally coldly ” Ronan Draco , second prince of Avalon and the guy who u came to meet without an appointment …. and just so you know , i will be the greatest warrior on this planet and then go onto bring your precious world order to its knees “.
Shakuni’s expression did not change one bit ar Ronan’s answer , but Alexanders grip shifted towards his sword once more.
He did not think his son would openly challenge shakuni and state his ambitions to destroy the man’s very organization publicly. But he was proud internally that Ronan did so , as that meant that his son had the balls to challenge even a man like Shakuni.
Atleast he did not raise a coward in the house of Augustus Draco.
Shakuni found Ronan’s reply extremely interesting as after one minute of a blank expression he bursted out laughing , as he laughed his heart out.
Shakuni recalled the day that he had met his own master. At the time his master was one of the three protectors of the world order and he had only met him by chance when he came to exterminate a forbidden elemental user in his small town.
On his first meet , he remembered that his master said ” I’m the strongest warrior on this planet kid … who the hell are you “..
and Shakuni replied ” I’m the one who will become the strongest warrior on this planet “.
At the time he was only a level 20 brat , but even then the confidence he had in his skills and in himself was unparalleled.
His master found his confidence to be the most interesting and later took him in as his only disciple on the mount abu.
Shakuni realised that the reason why he felt that there was something special about Ronan was because the kid was the spitting image of the temperament he used to have as a youngling
An 8 star talent , he was forced to work in the fields until he met his master and his destiny changed.
But hearing the same reply as his old self from Ronan , shakuni felt melancholic for a second as the grin on his face widened.
” Hahahahahaha … brat if you can make me even move more than one finger of my left arm in a spar , i will beleive your words , but if you can’t … you get on your knees and apologise to me right here and right not “. Shakuni said as his competitive aura flared.
Ronan now truly felt the extent of gap between himself and shakuni , as making him move a single finger aside , he could not even stand his aura.
” What eh? can’t even answer a simple challenge? are you only words and no action kid? only good at yapping , but can’t back your own words … is this what a Draco should be? “.
Shakuni taunted Ronan and hit it exactly where it hurt for the kid challenging his family name.
The way Ronan introduced himself as Ronan Draco first , it was clear that he took immense pride in his own name and would not tolerate any insult towards it.
For a veteran like shakuni , this was a weakness to exploit as he taunted Ronan for it .
Augustus , Alexander and Percy felt agitated by the taunt too , but they understood that this was Ronan’s fight and that they must not interfere , hence although their eyes went scarlet they did not take any actions.
Under the immense pressure from shakuni , Ronan started to chant his ultimate move as he tried to produce the flaming lightning wheel.
it was an A ranked technique and it was extremely hard and cumbersome to produce , however it was a whole another level of difficulty when being suppressed by the powerful aura of a level 196 warrior.
Shakuni watched on in excitement as Ronan managed to resist his pressure and create a powerful flaming lightning wheel over his palms , as he thought ‘ Incredible … a 13 y/o resisting my pressure … incredible , hahahaha ‘.
However he did not let his thoughts show on his face as he let Ronan pull off his move in peace.
when Augustus and Alexander felt the power from Ronan’s move they were astonished as while they had heard about Ronan’s technique from Percy they had never seen it in action.
The move was definitely extremely powerful and could easily decapitate even ascended level warriors . They were dumbfounded by the strength of their youngest one.
Percy on the other hand had seen the devastation of the move firsthand and knew how powerful it was as he thought ‘ That’s it brother , shut the old foggies damn mouth ‘.
” FLAMING LIGHTNING WHEEL “. Ronan managed to overcome Shakuni’s pressure to release an extremely strong flaming lightning wheel with purple lightning in its spokes instead of the golden thunder.
It was the same move Ronan had used to decapitate the assassins , and after levelling up so many times since then , the strength of the move had went up by a notch
The moves trajectory was headed straight for Shakuni’s neck , and when the man did not try to evade , Ronan thought he had got him for sure , however a completely unexpected scenario occured next.
With a casual flick of his single finger … shakuni split Ronan’s move in half as he did not even need to make contact to block the move .
The flaming lightning wheel was split in half and went onto hit the walls behind shakuni as the Draco family was left mouth agape to notice the true strength of Shakuni.
The guy did not even move a single step or use any fancy techniques at all. He did not even use his elemental affinity to block the move but only used a single flick of his finger.
Percy was taken aback as he felt the strength being sapped from his knees while Ronan could not beleive his very eyes.
One of his strongest moves was defeated by shakuni just like that … just how strong was the guy to do that?
Can such a monster even be defeated? Ronan thought as shakuni still smiled at him tauntingly , waiting to see how Ronan dealt with this setback.

( meanwhile in far-away frozen land )
A hand came out of a coffin , as its body slowly broke free from the confines of the coffin.
a hideous looking fleshless body came out of the coffin with rotten skin hanging at a few parts while the others being exposed as bones.
However despite being only awakened after 1000 year long slumber the body still exuded extremely strong battle power in the ascended realm as its first word after waking was ‘ Phoenix … ‘.
Surrounding his own coffin were a million more coffins , as he himself started to walk towards one of the biggest ones of them all.
The undead moved towards the coffin of their leader and general as he started to poke his fleshless bones at the top of the coffin .
The undead was one of the royal instructors of the night army , the one that was supposed to awaken the contingent leader when the 1000 year slumber was over .
Although the Draco family had no idea about it , the ancestral first leader of the phoenix clan once had a great fight with the ice users under the night king .
The fire users had won that battle but the night king decided to use a ice spell that sealed his entire army in a deep slumber for 1000 years , preventing their complete death and annihilation.
Promising to return one day , he went into a very long slumber , but apparently the time to awaken had come.
