The Last Primal

723 Chapter 723

Aiden's cool -but for Korgoth, rather ominous- sounding voice came from behind. He harrumphed at the sight of the turntail elite captain and a sinister, killing intent surged in his eyes.

Although his voice was firm and it gave no leeway to doubt, in truth the situation was rather complicated. Aiden knew that he should not and can not allow such a figure as this Korgoth, this elite captain escape as it would only be the cause of further troubles in the future.

As a proudful person, being shamed and humiliated, as well as his family name tarnished, there's no doubt in Aiden's mind that this person, if allowed, will continue to germinate his hatred and will potentially grow into a problem in the future.

Yet, there was the fact that he should, at most have another week or so left before he should be allowed to leave this land. He has only that relatively short time frame to resolve this racial war between the Draconic Skinks, defeat their false god, this traitorous guardian and bring them under his wings, and let them settle down in Haven.

A week. That should not be enough time for any meaningful problem to arise from this hateful seed. Yet, it could be the cause of unforeseen complications over in Haven. Could he truly gain any worship or loyalty from such a figure? Wouldn't he just be the first corrupt seed that could sprout and contaminate the rest?

On the other hand, whilst killing him seems the obvious choice, it would not paint a positive picture to the masses. A vicious, murderous beast is not something that people would wholeheartedly stand behind and support but at most would remain silent because of utter dread, terror, and fear.

Pondering for a bit, Aiden finally affirmed his resolve. Hesitation vanished from his expression leaving only a stern, cold gaze.

His body suddenly flickered as Aiden's stomped firmly on the caved-in ground before suddenly bursting forth.

He covered the meager distance of what seemed like around twelve feet within a single instant and caught up with Korgoth within just a couple steps, launching out his arm like a missile towards the latter's back.

Several blurry afterimages were left in the path his arm drew, defying reality as it sailed across the short distance and distorted space itself.

"ROAR!"

Korgoth's mount, the vicious looking Carnosaur was the first to react to the desperate situation. The moment it sensed its owner, its master's crisis it roared in anger and rage as its fur stood on end. Amidst a vicious snarl, it bared its fangs, and without hesitation and any care of who were stronger than the other it lunged towards Aiden ferociously.

The strength of such a beast was not something anybody can just easily take. Aiden also felt a strange sense of threat from the huge creature.

If he was struck even Aiden would suffer some injuries and whilst he felt that it would not be life threatening, it would seriously dampen his attack power. It may even be the cause of further mishaps!

Still, despite that fact, Aiden's expression remained unchanged, unwavering. Suddenly the sound of fabric being torn could be heard, soon followed by a huge dark shadow emerging from the side.

Whilst he retained most of his attention in punching towards Korgoth's core from the back.

At the same time, just as the Carnosaur's claws were about to reach Aiden and tear into his flesh, a muscular dark green shadow rammed violently over at a blazing speed!

*Boom!*

A series of bangs could be heard coming from several sources at the same time!

The carnosaur was sent flying by that blurry dark green shadow, which as the dust clouds gradually billowed were revealed to be a muscular, reptilian tail. Aiden's tail!

The carnosaur let out a sad muffled cry as it crashed down on the ground and rolled several steps backwards.

A deep nasty hole was punctured at the beast's chest and its dark red blood was gushing out, swiftly painting the surrounding area!

The carnosaur struggled hard and wanted to stand up. Yet its stance was wobbly at best, his strength was rapidly draining.

Still, it wasn't a simple beast, it would not give up from one single defeat! It's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot as it snarled viciously once again. Seemingly reinvigorated by some invisible force, it suddenly sprung up once more with a newfound strength and was about to charge forward once more.

However, before it could do so, its nemesis, Aiden's massive, muscular tail shot out once again, darting by in the next instant!

Like a dark green spear, Aiden's tail stabbed through the Carnosaur's head in the next instant, entering through its open mouth and making a brash exit through the back of its head!

Just like that, a fearsome, terrifying monster, a mutated carnosaur, at the brink of its evolution was dead, killed in an instant.

At the same time on the other side Aiden's fist, carrying profound mysteries within, have arrived unobstructed. Its massive power violently unleashed as if judgment from the heavens has descended upon the unlucky captain.

*Shine!*

Vibrant, golden light shone from Korgoth's back suddenly revealing his shimmering scales! A set of runes emerged, acting as a sort of last defense, an inner armor and reinforced the strength of Korgoth's scales.

Although the power of Aiden's punch was great, the strange protection made more than half of it vanish in an instant, whilst the rest could not break through the powerful scales, ultimately failing to breach beneath Korgoth's skin and cause him any harm!

Korgoth did not hesitate and seized this opportunity, this magical moment, and continued fleeing forward.

"[Reptilian] Hahaha!" His laughter hollered as his figure was receding. "Kiddo, you are still far from being able to kill me! Just you wait… I will return one day and-"

He did not hear any response from the hooded stranger no matter how hard he taunted. Instead, the surge of killing intent behind him intensified, as if a terrifying ferocious and ancient beast was chasing him!

Instinctively, Korgoth turned and glanced behind.

A single glare that he spotted scared him out of his wits.

The stranger, that was like an average looking youthful and vigorous skink before had a completely different, terrifying visage. Although he could not identify what that look resembled, it made his whole body shudder under its terror. Watching as the young man charged at him with shocking momentum, leaving behind a series of afterimages as it crossed the distance with a rapid pace.

"[Reptilian] Go! Defend the captain! Kill the outsider!"

The guards that Korgoth have brought with him finally realized what was happening as they hurriedly reached for their weapons and charged stabbed towards Aiden!

"DIE!"
