Chapter 480 Hadurt Slays the Dragon

With the godly duel heating up in the sky, the battlefield below did the same. Three dragons were fighting with their lives on the line, as well as a lv. 89 berserker that was possessed by the increasing pace of his battle.

Hadurt was all smiles while he continued to test his draconic opponent. His black halberd carved through the heated, vaporized breath attacks of the Flood Dragon. In Hadurt’s eyes, this was the perfect chance to test his skills.

’Karronteel, how about a race?’

’What do you mean?’ asked the Spectral Dragon, focusing on defending himself.

’I bet I can kill mine first.’

’I accept your challenge!’ Karronteel shouted telepathically, followed by his mighty roar.

Riled up even more, Hadurt’s smile turned demonic. The demonic energy started to seep into Hadurt’s character along with his body. His sanity was still fully intact but Hadurt had given in to his current emotions. He wanted to slay the dragon.

The Flood Dragon was amazed to see a human fight so daringly and manage to oppress him. It was outside of all expectations he and most all dragons had formed after entering isolation near the end of the Godly War.

"Come on big fella, give me everything you’ve got!" shouted the Hadurt, grinning devilishly. "If you don’t keep me entertained then I’ll kill you too quickly!"

Insulted, the Flood Dragon roared. It began amassing more and more steam within its gullet.

Hadurt patiently waited a couple of seconds while the beast charged its attack, startling the Flood Dragon. But the Flood Dragon disregarded the human’s insolence and spewed an explosion of steam.

All soldiers within the attack’s trajectory were blown away, even when they were more than a dozen meters behind Hadurt. The black-armored berserker, on the other hand, cleaved downward against the attack. At first, they were at a standstill. However, Hadurt still managed to slice the vaporized attack in two with great effort and the combination of wind and dark magic.

"My turn!"

Lighting and wind energy stormed around Hadurt and intermingled with the dark, corrosive energy. Before the Flood Dragon could blink, Hadurt appeared above the beast. With a single swing, Hadurt dove into the Flood Dragon’s neck.

A fountain of red blood sprayed all over Hadurt’s devilish smile. He was too fast for the massive-bodied dragon to evade.

The Flood Dragon was still plenty alive and rushed to the side. Tanking such a grave wound hadn’t left it incapable, but it did leave the Flood Dragon waiting for its life to gradually end due to blood loss without healing magic.

"I’m not done yet!"

Again, Hadurt dove into the long body of the Flood Dragon. And though the high-level dragon was obviously fast, it was too slow and too large of a target for Hadurt to miss.

Another cut appeared on the dragon’s shoulder. Then a slash carved into the beast’s side. Flesh parted as Hadurt sliced one of the dragon’s leg’s off.

Frantic, the Flood Dragon took to the sky to retreat. But would Hadurt let his prey flee?

He slashed again, making contact.

The dragon whined in pain as it plummeted back to the ground below. Losing a leg made it land all the more horribly, but that was mostly due to the dragon losing one of its two largest wings.

"Hmm... I can make all kinds of stuff from this!" Hadurt chuckled, feeling up the disembodied wing.

Snarling and roaring in a frenzy, the Flood Dragon targeted the Reinolt soldiers and the allies of the man threatening it. If it couldn’t deal with Hadurt, it decided to kill or threaten those that it could.

A plume of steam and heat rocketed out of its mouth. It took out plenty of Zuran forces to get there, but its targets were the party holding the invasion back.

’Maynard, Trax, watch out!’ Hadurt yelled within their minds.

Catching wind of the incoming attack, Trax hurried back while Maynard and Raiton flashed away in a show of their incredible speed.

At the same time, the Flood Dragon’s mouth suddenly slammed shut. Hadurt had run his halberd through the beast’s jaws.

In a new whine of pain, the Flood Dragon ceased its attack after hurting itself. Having holes in its mouth left the dragon unable to use breath attacks without consequence.

"I think we’re done here..." While his halberd was skewered through the dragon’s mouth, Hadurt sent absurd amounts of electricity through the halberd and into the beast.

The dragon thrashed, cried, scratched at Hadurt, but the berserker removed his halberd only to jab it into the dragon’s forehead. He then started to turn the halberd cruelly while sending more and more electricity directly into the Flood Dragon’s skull.

All the battlefield heard the dragon’s cries. They had no choice but to witness the demonic berserker torture the dragon to the brink of death, only putting it out of its misery so he could collect its limbs and corpse as trophies.

But when he finished that battle, four men arrived on the scene to confront the berserker.

"Huh? Oh, more association guys... That’s what you’ve been up to..."

Getting recognized was no surprise to the four men. They surrounded Hadurt as the lead man spoke up, "I’ve heard that Lorwynn is also alive. Tell us where and how you convinced him to turn traitor!"

"You’re confused," replied Hadurt. "It was the other way around. He’s the one that convinced me, and neither of us regrets it one bit. Now, I’ll warn you. Flee now or die. It’s your choice."

None of the men said a word, standing firm.

Hadurt sighed, "Fine... But I’ll feel like I’m bullying you when you’re so low-leveled... All of you, come at me!"

They took him up on that, swarming him as a single unit. At levels 80, 81, 82, and 84, Hadurt’s level was a major threat without relying on teamwork.

Still covered in lightning and wind, Hadurt evaded but found the duelist keeping up with him. The duelist thrust his rapier forward, also using wind and lightning magic. His role was to keep up with Hadurt and to not let him get comfortable while the others would corral the berserker and support their leader.
