Chapter [312] Dragon Vs Wolf.
[Alan"s Pov.]
I"m excited.
I"m expectant.
As I Gazed at Alexander, I wondered.
Just what kind of training did he go to become like "that"
Alexander Wright was a shy boy, yes he was stronger than most Shield Cadets but his weak personality and other traits didnt make him seem strong. He stayed quiet most of the time.
But now? That was gone.
That shy and cowardly gaze was now a fierce and determined gaze.
That quiet personality was now something fierce,
*Thump!*Thump!*
Is my heart excited for this?
Each cell of My body is...I can"t wait to fight him.
I wielded the Ame-No-Sakahoko and prepared myself. I was expectant.
Please give me a good fight Alex!
"Begin!"
With the Sword Saint"s shout. The duel had begun.
My mana dragon and his Aura Wolf disappeared as soon as the duel began.
I thrusted with the Ame-No-Sakahoko, intending to create immense Air Pressure with my strength to mess with Alexander"s Balance. I knew how dangerous his speed was.
I enhanced my optical nerves with mana just in case. Using Dragon eyes would strain me too much. I can"t afford to be burdened.
But I guess I had underestimated Alexander far too much.
As soon as I Had trusted the Ame-no-Sakahoko...he disappeared.
*SHWING*
With the sound of iron cutting air and flesh, dozens of deep cuts appeared on my body instantly.
The enormous wind pressure from my thrust did nothing to stop him.
My enhanced optical nerves did nothing to detect him.
He...He...
??? ?????? ???????? ???????? ????????.
My blood rained down like a shower. Alexander, who was behind me immediately started his next attack.
But he wouldn"t be so lucky this time. I instantly turned around and Blocked his twin blades with the Ame-no-Sakahok-
His Aura clashed with my Mana.
"Quite Fast! Aren"t we?"
I pushed him back and thrusted forward. Alexander jumped high up and landed on the Ame-No-Sakahoko.
I fired an Ice Spike as large as a human to get rid of him. I was in his range, but he was not in mine.
Alexander swiftly dodged the ice spike and ran in circles around me.
My eyes scanned his movements, And I found his weakness.
I slashed at him with my spear, He barely blocked my spear with his twin blades. I didn"t give him time to rest as I Kicked him immediately afterward, sending him flying.
I chased his figure, And My spear and his swords clashed, each collision leaving a blast of Aura and Mana behind.
"This is fun!"
I thought. It truly was!
I dodged a lightning bolt fired by that black blade of his and thrusted forward once again. It was quite challenging to fight his twin swords with my single spear.
"d.a.m.n, And here I thought I got stronger!"
Alexander laughed as we dueled.
"You did!"
I yelled as I stabbed the Ame-no-Sakahoko into the ground. I unleashed a blast of mana into the ground to destroy it. So I could destroy his footing.
What good is his speed if he can"t find stable footing to use it?!
*RUMBLE*
But to my shock, It didn"t affect him.
I blocked his swords. He smiled as he stared right at me.
"Doesn"t work on me."
I smiled back.
"Does this work?"
I said as I froze the entire ground. Imbuing extra frost mana so that it would be more slippery.
[Grease[E] has been casted]
I cast another spell Miss Elena taught me just in case. I covered my soles with Ice Spikes so my balance wouldn"t be affected and Threw Alex Away.
Just As I expected. This worked. He was slipping.
I approached him and launched a flurry of attacks at him when he was about to stab his swords into the ground and destroy the ice.
"Did you seriously think I would let you do that?!"
*CLANG*CLANG*
"Not really!"
He replied. The Struggle was evident on his face!
"They are doing good."
Arken muttered from the sidelines. Enjoying the duel. Olivia remained silent behind him, carefully observing the duel. And Maybe praying for Alex to win.
"s.h.i.t! Take this then!"
Suddenly, A burst of lightning was unleashed right at Alan"s Face and Alexander used that to run away, gaining some distance.
Bursts of Lightning surrounded Alexander as the color of his changed and silver fur appeared on his foreman, chest, crust, and some of his face. He also grew two Wolf ears and a tail.
"huh?"
I stood still. Waiting for him to complete his transformation. I wanted to see what he could do now with his bloodline.
As soon as he was done I charged at him. Dodging the silver lightning imbued with his unique mana type.
Although, Even His [Null] mana would do nothing to stop me.
"Come On Alex! Is that all you got?!"
"Nope!"
"Huh?"
I was thrown aback by his response. And then Literally thrown back by his flurry of attacks. Wind And Lightning clashed against the Ame-No-Sakahoko.
His white blade carried the power of the Wind while his Black one carried the power of lightning. Each attack carried a powerful force of the respective elements.
"Argh!"
The Black blade got by my defenses and cut deep into my abdomen. The power of lightning unleashed itself in my body but I repelled it with the power of frost.
Alexander"s face contorted when he found out that his attack didn"t work.
I unleashed a Burst of mana and sent Him flying. I fired off two Ice Spikes but he coated his blades with the power of his [Null] Attribute and then dispelled my attacks.
Both he and I stared at each other with a smile.
"Wrap this you two!"
I heard Master Arken say.
Wrap this up huh? Sure.
"Sure."
He said. His eyes glowed silver. There was an unknown confidence in his voice.
He smiled, and I smiled back.
"Alan."
I activated my dragon eyes. I could predict where this was going. The same trick wouldn"t work on me twice!
"Let me show you true speed!"
He said, As his figure disappeared. I could already feel the immense Aura he was using. But this time was different. I could see him now. With The help of My Dragon eyes, I could see him coming. His blades wield the immense power of wind and lighting.
Just as his blades were going to hit me...I teleported behind him.
"Huh?"
Those were his last words. I slammed his side with the shaft of the Ame-No-Sakahoko. Sending him flying, unconscious.
"Alan wins."
Sword Saint Arken announced as he got up.
"Olivia go treat Alexander. And Alan."
I looked at him when he said my name. I wanted to enjoy my victory but Master"s words come first.
"Come with me."
Although confused, I followed him.
