510 million years after the death of dragon-king tyrant mundus, his only son named Ezekiel grew into a powerful dragon of annihilation & diplomatic figure for his people despite the previous king's absence which benefited him more than ever before.
Ezekiel spent his younger years into adulthood, sparring against his siblings, being raised in combat arts & being personally trained by his mother Ilona.
This golden age event entails the thunderous clash of dragon king Ezekiel when he had just reached maturity against the bullock, the emperor of giants and one of the strongest monarchs to ever exist in coin world recorded history.
—————————————————-
Far out into deep space, across the starry night sky of planet Calais, in space above the massive planet, a hulking sized black scaled dragon with wings spanning miles in length. Flies down upon the rugged planet's surface, his dark red & black eyes swaying left to right, seeing black sands covering as far as his eyes can see ahead of him.
Taking a few steps forward , his large thickly scaled claw-like hands digging into the ground underneath him, not long after he immediately senses an immensely strong hollow energy presence in a distance of about 1,000 miles away.
In the next moment, Ezekiel releases his own true hollow energy signature, a thick, dark crimson red aura shrouded around his shimmering scaled body. Thinking inwardly to himself while still lumbering at the most I would want for there to be no conflict between me and the presence I'm sensing, but then I'd be asking for too much. Most likely this a fellow monarch and someone of grandiose standing amongst their kind…
A Moments later, Ezekiel shifts into a hybrid dragon of annihilation state called "tempest", standing nearly 30 feet tall, his frame now blended into a mixture of humanoid and draconic features. Ezekiel's muscular frame is covered in obsidian-black scales that shimmer like a collapsing star, glowing faintly with crimson cracks of annihilation energy pulsing beneath. His chest and arms remain broad and humanoid but layered with scale-armor, making him appear like a living war machine. The mane of his hair flows like an infernal flame with streaks of black at the ends, trailing like fire in the wind.
The hands he has have now shaped in partially draconic talons, finger tips dipped in obsidian black capable of shredding through anything if needed while still maintaining high enough levels of dexterity to wield his divine instrument, a long spear named "kingsborn" and its special weapon effect being able to duplicate itself indefinitely. Twin Colossal curved Horns that sprout out backward from his skull glow with faint light, his eyes still crimson but even more radiant and beautiful.
Ezekiel draconic wings spread out once more lifting him up into the air gracefully like an angel rising into heaven.
two orbiting blue moons shine brightly under the planet-Calais, his large lumbering tail drags behind him then lifts up slashing the across air in front of him, splitting open claw shaped portal no bigger than him, going through he ends up upon different side of the planet.
In front of his eyes stands a lofty palace as big as the entire country with four pillars erected at each point forming 10,000 meter walls all around the giant kingdom, still floating in air, Ezekiel, summoning his long-spear into hand, its tip & handle both covered in a hard Crystalline colored red with crimson and a short golden flag trailing at its end point.
Using hollow energy sensing to outline any nearby pulses, once again he feels that same strong presence from when he first landed on the planet, flying down and landing in front of the two doors tripling him in size 100x over looks up and immediately yells out exclaiming, " I am dragon-king Ezekiel first and only born son of the graven-wing family, and I am here to meet with Bullock one of the three great giant emperors. "
Before hearing anyone speak he continues speaking adding on, "I'm also aware that each one of you is at odds with one another, and you all have complete control over your own galactic systems.
" The three star systems & two realm gateway pathed to the in-between that you, Hale as your territories, is known as, Chandra's pass, a name once used by the first monarch giants in existence."
15 seconds pass & the sound of the heavy doors in front of him slide open echoing loudly, two 100 meter giants come out in front of him both holding silver battle axes, draped in armor & cloths that resemble Vikings.
Looking down upon Ezekiel with light brown eyes and dark grey skin each covered in battle scars, one of the two giants lumbers over every step he takes slightly rumbling the ground beneath him, " we heard your call outside the palace dragon-king, and because of that our leader request an audience with you now, come with us now."
" Of course." Ezekiel nods agreeably.
Shortly after the three make their way into lofty palace, from what Ezekiel can see the kingdom is not only extreme in its size but its architecture is highly detailed with hundreds of murals & paintings around the walls, depicting giant history reaching back millions of years, alongside various unique featured giant statues made with rare cosmic materials that come from ancient an gateway that connects to the place in-between.
After about another minute of walking, the three make it to the throne room of the giant emperor, Ezekiel sees the two giant guards immediately drop down to a knee, not out of fear but utter respect. One of the two giants speaks up saying, " Emperor Bullock, we've brought dragon-king Ezekiel to come speak with you just as you asked of us. " Before another word is spoken a loud thud resounds through the throne-room, sitting at the seat is ruler bullock.
A 200 foot Tall woman stands up from well crafted high back seat, she is an extremely muscular giant with a massive hammer with silver handle that has runes etched into its making, her skin is a lighter gray similar to other members of her clan, with magenta colored eyes & long raven black hair that cascades all the way down her back into slight loops at the end.
Bullock's overall appearance from Ezekiel view can only be described in his head as both powerful warrior yet carrying an aura beautiful grace,
having a sense of balance between the two different sides.
She was wearing a short brownish colored tunic that was slightly provocative due to its length.
Augmented with golden greaves, studded vambraces, reinforced cuirass and thick black furred cape that draped over her shoulders with similar fur high knee boots all while still showcasing a strong feminine figure.
While still walking towards Ezekiel, bullock outstretches her right arm, calling the hammer she left by the high back throne into her hand, grabbing then swinging it over onto her shoulder very casually letting it rest on herself.
In a deep melodic voice with bit of scattered huskiness she says to him:
"I'd be willing to have a conversation with you dragon-king but since you've come into my kingdom as giant emperor to gray skins, I must ask you for a duel of strengths to see your willingness to be here."
" a duel?." He asked questionably.
" Yes a duel, it is one of the biggest staples in giant culture for us to battle in unarmed or armed combat for situations where talking isn't enough, although there are only a few cases where it leads to the other side dying, more often than not, we primarily do this to settle disputes."
Bullock had answered him truthfully.
" prove to me you mean your worth, and I'll provide any answer needed." Speaking in tone of honesty.
Lifting up her mighty hammer, the tension in each of her muscles flexing tightly, "let's begin!!." Leaping into air without second to spare she swings her hammer into downward motion overhead aiming to strike Ezekiel directly in the face if doesn't block.
Ezekiel in response to her attack, swings his crystalline spear with immense force & speed, true hollow energy shrouding around his body and weapon, immediately sending waves of air pressure that collides with bullock hammer strike.
The two ensuing melee attacks clash releasing enormous amounts of hollow energy, so much so that the two giants that were nearby get knocked out immediately following the pressure they feel. followed by thunderous sonic booms resounding across the whole atmosphere echoing through the entire planet's surface.
The sheer feedback of these explosive outputs of energies from the initial hits didn't even have the weapons touch each other for a moment, like two wills were colliding against one another in ever flowing ebb of emotions .
After a second or two passes, Bullock follows up with another exerted swing of her hammer, Ezekiel rolls to his left moving out the way of its extended range, thrusting out his spear using difference in length to his advantage to pierce into her arm.
Flicking up the forearm she Blocks the attack with her studded bracers, then back stepping a few meters to give herself distance away from Ezekiel's spear range, however the dragon-king doesn't let up continuing to press forward
with incessant thrusts attacks.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Bullock notices that each one of the spear strikes not only increases in precision, but every single time Ezekiel throws another attack the force behind it carries even greater strength.
The skill with his weapon is excellent and the handling behind it shows that he's used this divine instrument extensively… snapping her fingers both of them are instantly transported into a vast underground chamber.
Its expanse seems to stretch miles in every direction endlessly.
There are multiple reinforced granite pillars rising high above them, if one looked up you would see that the pillars go on forever into the black void of this endless chamber.
Bullock leans forward saying:
"This place is known as the "box", a vast underground chamber equivalent to the size of our observable universe, where our fight won't destroy the planet Calais which my people reside on.
It is a prominent place where disputes between fellow giants are held mostly, so this will be an area of respect for the rules."
Shortly after the duel continues, both warriors fight like mad beasts, each attack being launched fueled with true hollow energy, the outputs of moves now dramatically rising, going from 5% to 10% to a staggering 25% of both their total outputs.
Clang! Ring! Clang ! Ring!!
In the midst of their continuous clash of divine instruments, long spear against double handed hammer, for second the clashing stops and in another moment both fighters look towards another with intensity, both of their left arms outstretched, quickly pulling them back into clenched fists that hastily collide with each-other.
two fists crash, the initial impact of these terrifying blows rumbling & reverberate in all directions across endless underground chamber, cracking under the reinforced stone pavements and nearby pillars get destroyed completely reduced into ashen rubble.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
The whipping of Ezekiel's massive black tail cuts through the air like a hot knife splitting into butter, bullock blocks the first two hits effectively, then gets struck across the face a cut splitting her right cheek open, blood trickling down to her lips, she looks down at the blood, smiling right after, licking up the blood off her lips smoothly. Seven black tails protrude out her back, while her eyes reshaping into almond slanted pupils, furthermore.
Ezekiel senses a noticeable hollow energy output increase, the aura of light magenta wrapping around her tense muscular frame beginning to brightly glowing under his crimson gaze.
Trigger abilities usage, and it's a transformation type at that… Ezekiel opens the palm of his hand outstretching his left arm, while spear still in the other hand, looking towards the female giant, he vocalizes one of his own trigger abilities to match with her attack. "Tempest's sky roars."
Summoning four colossal tornadoes in the shape of dragons around him he aims them with his spear pointed towards her focused and direct, the first two wind dragons barrel after her, one smashing from the left side, the other smashing into at the front of bullock chest armor.
When two attacks land, her tails whip to front covering body, reducing the damage caused by torrential winds, smacking both attacks away, swinging her hammer down to the ground cratering floor underneath, displacing his movements and uprooting the ground in front of him.
A second pair of wind dragons fused together into one large tornado dragon, its razor teeth clamp down onto unearthed rubble crushing it instantly, Ezekiel leaps forward flying through his dragon winds to catch bullock off guard and land a direct hit towards her stomach. The blow lands, sending her back about 120 meters away into one of nearby pillars, breaking it cleanly.
Quickly recovering, giant emperor grabs pillar dozens of times larger then with two of her seven wolf-like tails, launching it at Ezekiel akin to archer shooting arrows with elite accuracy, another four broken pillars are sent careening through the voided skies of infinite underground chamber, seeing the objects flying at him in near distance, hastily plunges his spear into ground twisting the end of hilt where the flag waves, a loud click goes off activating the effect of his divine instrument manifesting dozens of red crystal spears that pierce into and completely destroying the pillars.
