Chapter [197] Protect, Whom You Want To Protect
A blue-white draconian with golden wings of fire, releasing pure white mana battled with an orc that had glowing red engravings and was covered in a red storm.
In front of Sabrina"s very eyes...a battle between two mystical powers was occurring.
Mana Against Aura.
Fist against Fist.
Kubrick and Alan engaged with each other and wrecked the surroundings.
The fragments of the area hit Sabrina, and she conjured a mana barrier around herself.
But never did she stop looking at the fierce battle occurring in front of her.
"So this was the reason behind your strength!"
Kubrick smiled as he continued fighting Alan, who roared back in response as well as punching Kubrick in the face.
*ROAR!*
*BAM*!
"It was because you were never a human! You were a DRACONIAN! A SERVANT OF A DRAGON!"
For the first time in this battle, Kubrick showed a smile that showed he was enjoying this fight to the fullest.
"COME AT ME OH DRACONIAN, LET US FIGHT TILL DEATH!"
The red storm of aura flared up higher, and battled the storm of white Mana!
Roar!
The white draconian roared, and its fists and Kubrick"s fists met!
Sabrina flew back from the clash...the mana barrier she conjured breaking.
She hit a tree...and fell as she coughed up blood...but then a magnificent sight happened before her.
The white draconian rose to the sky, its golden wings flared up and released hundreds of golden arrows that fell upon the land.
Kubrick"s aura flared up to protect him, and a few arrows landed on Sabrina.
*Shiu!*
*shiu!*
But instead of being burned as she expected, she saw that her wounds were healing as more golden arrows fell forming a circle around her, blocking the surrounding aura and mana from reaching her.
She could finally stand and stared at the magnificent sight in awe, as now multiple shards of ice fell upon Kubrick.
"...Alan wasn"t a human?"
As the battle went on, She thought as Kubrick jumped into the sky and slammed Alan into the ground by grabbing his tail.
All the pieces of the puzzle were now together.
His unusual rank for his age, his abnormal strength, and his abnormal apt.i.tude for mana.
His abnormal talents...was because he was not a human...but from a race far above a human.
A descendant of a dragon, A Draconian.
And from what she could see, Alan was a different kind of draconian, unlike the boss monster Draconians of B-rank dungeons and above.
*ROAR!*
Alan fired a beam of white light from his mouth but the move backfired when Kubrick dodged to the side and uppercutted Alan, making the beam of mana explode in his mouth.
Kubrick then tackled Alan, pinning him to the ground, and trying to break Alan"s neck.
*ROAR!*
The white draconian roared in pain..but was saved by a black lightning bolt that attacked th orc on the back of the head with great accuracy.
Alan immediately took the opportunity and threw Kubrick off with his tail, he then punched Kubrick and landed fist after fist on the orc.
*BAM!*
*BAM!*
"GRAHH!"
Kubrick yelled and a storm of red aura erupted from him, pushing Alan off him.
Alan was immediately a.s.saulted by numerous punches by Kubrick...and soon fought back.
"Alan" was no longer there...and neither was the calm Kubrick.
Two Beasts...Two Absolute forces of Nature, One Mana, and the other Aura fought.
Fist after fist, which then devolved into biting each other and using whatever means to attack one another.
The world began to be dyed in Red And White, as two beasts roared at each other as their fists clashed.
*ROAR!*
*ROAR!*
They roared respectively, Hitting each other with their fists.
*BAM!* BAM* BAM BAM BAM BAM*
Their fists. .h.i.t each other"s faces at the same time, and they both fought vigorously.
Alan ducked and sweeped Kubrick with his tail, and then tried to pounce on Kubrick, trying to rip him into shreds but Kubrik kicked him before he could do that.
He then attacked Alan by elbowing Alan in the face, as he bit off another area covered with skills.
Alan"s red blood changed the color of his white scales, as another punch from Kubrcik landed on his face.
Alan instantly fired off another beam which managed to hit Kubrick, sending him flying.
Alan flew to him and grabbed him and raised Kubrick high in the air before throwing him to the ground.
Kubrick landed on his feet but was caught off guard by Alan pouncing on him at full speed from the sky.
Their battle went on as the ground started to disappear.
"GRAHH!"
"ROAR!*
Kubrick"s war cry and Alan"s roar were heard simultaneously, and the clash between white Mana and red Aura got even more intense.
"Either you or I will leave here alive Draconian!"
Kubrick laughed as he faced Alan.
"And If I Die, thank you from the bottom of my heart for delivering me to the holy land!"
Kubrick said words Alan couldn"t Understand but Sabrina could.
She had read in a book about orcs, that they yearn for an opponent that could give them a battle so exciting and thrilling that even if they were to die, they would die happily as they knew their souls would be transferred to their Holy Land.
The Holy land where the souls of the greatest orc warriors resided.
Kubrick, who had been reduced to a mere slave from a chieftain, thought he lost the chance to go to the place that was considered the greatest achievement an orc could get!
But Now...Now...NOW THIS WAS HIS CHANCE!
EITHER HE WILL WIN OR DIE IN THIS BOUT!
Either he will win and have the glory of defeating a draconian, or he will die and go to the Holy Land Of warriors, Valhalla!
Hence his excitement, hence his grat.i.tude, He had been a slave for too long!
Kubrick and Alan were both exhausted, but Alan was clearly in a much, much worse state.
The white draconian lost all of his previous elegance.
Kubrick punched Alan in the face again and threw him far away.
Alan landed near Sabrina...who nearly vomited as she saw his state.
Mangled Flesh, His own scales that were meant to protect him stabbing into his body.
The bloodied Kubrick limped toward Alan, Grabbing his axe on the way, intending to finish Alan off.
But he met by another obstacle, Sabrina fired multiple bolts of lightning at Him, trying to stop him but to no avail.
"Do NOT INTERFERE!"
Kubrick raised his axe and covered it in a storm of red aura, he now didn"t care if he brought Sabrina back dead or alive.
A Crescent red slash larger than anything Sabrina had seen made its way toward her and Alan.
She conjured up multiple barriers...but despaired when they broke so easily.
And just as her life flashed before her eyes, Alan in his draconian form appeared in front of her instantly and took the blow head-on.
A large explosion was heard, and Sabrina found herself in the hands of Alan Peccator...who protected her from the attack by using his body.
His body reverted to its human form, and Alan lifelessly fell, No Longer being able to stand back up.
Sabrina"s eyes showed horror as she saw Alan fall, And Kubrick walked towards them.
"Wait! You wanted me right?! Let him live and I"ll go with you peacefully!"
Kubrick stopped for a moment as he stared at Sabrina, before responding.
"Huff...You rejected my offer previously, and now you want to accept when all is done?"
Kubrick panted Heavily, standing still for a while and letting his body recover.
Even the previous great Chieftain of an entire tribe of orcs was not left uninjured by Alan.
He huffed to restore his breath...and used Aura to heal his wounds.
"I was wrong back then...please just take me."
Kubrick listened to the pleas...but turned a blind eye to them, as he focused on recovering his strength.
His wounds slowly healed...and his breathing began to stabilize...and in front of Sabrina"s horrified eyes...the orc regenerated to his original state in a matter of seconds.
The healing power of Aura of "that" level was terrifying.
Kubrick got closer and closer to the collapsed Alan as he found Sabrina standing in front of Him and the Draconian.
"Commendable effort, but it will change nothing."
He said...and Sabrina knew d.a.m.n too well.
She was out of mana..which was why she couldn"t fire a single bolt of lighting when Kubrick was regenerating.
Kubrick raised his giant axe, and Sabrina closed her eyes, accepting her death.
"Farewell, Human and Draconian."
Kubrick said...his red aura flaring higher and higher.
And then he slashed down.
