The mutated Thagda was just about to finish the helpless turtle with a merciless blow. But just when his spiked tail was about to end the battle, a human with dark brown hair, wearing a plain white t-s.h.i.+rt, suddenly appeared before him.This human"s eyes were deep brown and s.h.i.+ning full of unexpected calmness and wisdom.
His hair waved gracefully in the liquid world of the water realm and the small gills in his neck revealed how this human can stay underwater without suffocating for lack of oxygen.
What made the mutated Thagda surprised is the aura of the mysterious human. It was mystifying yet familiar at the same time.
"You..." A low growling sound of the Thagda came out of its fang-filled mouth. His glaring eyes stuck to every detail of the calm human. As much as he wanted to slam his spike-filled tail to squash this interrupting insect, he just could not do so. It feels like a mysterious power is hindering him from doing what he liked.
This human came in out of nowhere at an unseen speed. Unexpectedly, despite his flas.h.i.+ng arrival, the explosive momentum did not even cause a huge unsettling of dust. The human came as if a gentle wind but flashed like a lightning.
Just what kind of power control does he possess?

For some reason, his body and instinct are telling him to run away, but just like the King and Queen Dragons before, they refuse to let their instinct tell them to back away on a fight.
His pride does not allow him so.
How could he back down on his barrage of attacks just because a mere human interrupted him? Not to mention, it looked completely harmless. Compared to his oversized body, this human looked like a little ping pong ball compared to his humungous build. With a light flick of his finger, the human could probably lose half of its body without any resistance.
But just why? Why can"t I do it?
The Thagda remained motionlessly, having an internal struggle for himself. His muscles are twitching and the bones cracking. Its glaring eyes revealed a deep internal turmoil from an unexpected conflict.
Little did he know, Elric is the half-breed they were hunting for all along. The only difference is that the scent that Elric now possess is completely different from before, a side effect of the Spirit Cleansing Pearl.
With his physical and spiritual form cleansed and even fortified, he is like a newborn tree made of just pure sheen metal, devoid of rust and greases. His scent is comparable to that of a clean newborn child. His vibrant dark brown hair and smooth yet steel-like skin even more beautiful compared to those models seen on TV commercials.
Elric"s presence alone commanded respect, power, and awe.
And just like that, the brutal mutated Thagda is acting like a cute and obedient puppy, waiting for its master"s command.
Elric ignored the dangerous creature behind him and touched the teary-eyed-oversized turtle with his small human hands. A gush of comforting warmth drove in from Elric"s palm and quickly filled the whole body of Dash. The gaping wounds slowly healed in a visible rate while the toxins brought by the poison are being flushed out through the wounds like black slimes being expelled out.
Seeing this, the mutated Thagda was shocked. This human"s healing ability is crazy! That turtle should have been dead any seconds from now but with just a simple touch from his warm-glowing hands, all the wounds from the helpless turtle just healed like magic!
Forcing himself out of his instinct, the Thagda swiftly drove his strength into his huge claws and swung it madly, aiming at Elric"s figure.
SLAP!
BANG!
With a simple yet powerful slap from Elric"s hand, the Thagda was sent flying a good distance before finally skidding to stop - with its head digging deep on the ground and it"s the lower body facing upward.
"My friend is recovering. Please do not disturb." Elric casually said, turning back to focus on healing his dear friend who has fallen completely unconscious. Unknowingly, a confident smile slowly crept in the huge mouth of the turtle as if dreaming a happy one.
"..."
The merfolks and other creatures of the water realm have gone dumbstruck from what they have just witnessed. The human came in out of nowhere and slapped the evil Thagda away like a fly being swatted.
Does he know what he was facing? Or he is just too overwhelmingly powerful to bother facing the abomination?
ROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAR!
An angry roar of the Thagda filled with hatred and fury reverberated across the water realm.
SWOOOSH~
It was followed by forcefull shock waves that seemed to push everything from its surroundings.
GGRRRR~
The Thagda stood with all its piercing blackthorns popped out of its abnormal body. It"s serpent eyes are full on-bloodshot as madness crept into its very core. Its body breathed deep as if gathering its strength for an epic slam.
The mere power building upon its muscles caused the surrounding air to vibrate wildly and even expelled the smoke of highly corrosive poison. The two dangling pitch-black claws clanged in irritation, eager to slice Elric into bits and pieces.
Such a humiliating attack absolutely broke its fragile Dragon pride.
"Whoever you are... DIE!"
The furious Thagda left nothing but dust from where he was standing, in just a blink of an eye, he arrived at Elric"s back with the sharp claws weaving its way to cleave Elric into slices, not to mention, its long tail already coiled at Elric"s feet like a Boa preparing to devour its prey.
With the world in slow motion in the eyes of Thagda, the figure of the weak looking human suddenly moved. Its head turned to face him - with a bored look on its face.
The eyes themselves told him that he is just too weak and this battle seems to be over before it could even start. The eyes themselves declared that he was weak and was pathetic and was just not a threat.
He couldn"t even bother to left his fingers anymore just to fight him.
Just from the eyes alone, the Thagda became even more furious. He is being underestimated!
"How dare you show me that face!"
Do you know who I am?
I am the ultimate form of the half-dragon and half elemental! I am-
But the next thing the Thagda realized, he was covered in scorching blue flame. It"s searing flame covered his body, faster than he can let the human go.
And like a domino effect, The cleansing blue-fire, which is the ultimate counter for their dark poison, disintegrated every cell in his huge body. From the huge tail to its sharp claws. Everything just melted like b.u.t.ter.
Together with it was his consciousness fading like a bubble popping to nothingness.
"I am dead?" It was the Thagda"s last words.
A few minutes later, its black slimy meat was all that was left for its remains. Another threat has been irradicated and the peace was brought back to the land of the water realm.
And just like that, Elric solved another great threat that could have changed the entire fate of the realm.
Elric"s right hand moved, his pointing finger went straight to his nose hole and started doing his business. The other hand is still busy healing the turtle who has now transformed back into its palm-size version.
"Hey, buddy hurry and wake up. We still have three more elemental realms to go men. We gonna catch "em all E-authorities buddy." Elric excitedly said.
"Dang, I missed playing Dota." He added with a helpless sigh.
