Ancient Giant Dragon.
In this era, they are also the dominators, as most Fantastic Beasts cannot compete with them. After all, most Magic has a minimal effect on them.
Speaking of their size.
Dinosaurs are merely their small snacks.
"We must hide!"
Xiao Ya grabbed Odin's hand in a panic.
"That must be a Giant Dragon lost from the northern Dragon Island."
She made a judgment.
And she rushed out of the house with Ian in tow.
The street was already in chaos, with many residents running in panic to save their lives.
"Damn it! Evil Dragon!" Odin, pulled by his sister, had a flash of anger and unwillingness in his eyes, but he ultimately said nothing, merely tightening his grip on his sister's hand.
Ian looked around, seeing that already over ten Trainers had brought their Fantastic Beasts to confront the dragon, but against this Ancient Giant Dragon, they were almost helpless. Each of their attacks was easily neutralized, some even being thrown down with their partners, their survival uncertain.
"It can't go on like this, the Fantastic Beasts of your town can't contend with such a creature." Ian said softly, with a determined gleam in his eyes.
Xiao Ya urgently pulled on his arm.
"Your partner is just a bird, surely it can't fight against the dragon."
She seemed to really believe the notion that the Raven was Ian's partner, aware of the limited combat potential a bird might have, even as a child.
"I am more than just a bird, I am a Wizard."
Ian smiled gently.
His tone was calm yet full of confidence.
"What's a Wizard?"
Xiao Ya and Odin appeared bewildered.
Ian didn't answer.
"Thanks for the hospitality, I should do something for you." He merely drew his Magic Wand, his figure soared skyward, his robe flapping.
Ian ascended above the battlefield, the situation had become dire. Over ten of the strongest Elves formed the last line of defense, but they retreated step by step under the dragon's assault.
The siblings hurried to follow.
"That's your guest, right?"
Someone recognized Ian.
But Xiao Ya and Odin didn't have the time to answer.
In the next second.
Under the siblings' and others' astonished gaze.
Ian waved his Magic Wand, a fierce flame surged, it was a blue flame, not a scattered fiery wave but condensed into a huge flaming Raven.
Circling and dancing around Ian.
The Fiery Fire manifested!
Under the Transformation Technique, it was like an elemental lifeform, circling above Ian's head, its wings spread, the deep blue flame illuminating the entire night sky like a rising sun. Its eyes were like molten lava, glaring at the rampaging Ancient Giant Dragon, emitting a sharp, piercing cry.
"This is a Wizard."
Ian finally gave Xiao Ya an answer. His fingertips moved slightly, and the Fiery Fire seemed instructed, diving abruptly, the Ravendeemed of pure Magic emitting sharp cries.
Darting like a living creature at the house-destroying dragon.
"What's happening?"
On the ground, the injured mayor muttered.
"Roar——!"
The Giant Dragon felt the threat, it roared angrily, breathing out a scorching white dragon breath, the intense energy erupted like a volcano, tearing the earth apart into scorched ground. However, the Fiery Fire was swift, swiftly maneuvering through the sky, avoiding a direct hit, and then flapping its wings fiercely, raising a mighty blazing wave.
Directly sweeping the surrounding dust and debris into the sky.
"Boom——!"
In the clash between flames and dragon breath, the entire sky seemed ignited, dazzling firelight reflected on everyone's face, as if the apocalypse had arrived. The shockwave of the explosion swept in all directions, uprooting trees along the street, roof tiles scattered, while people covered their ears from the extraordinary confrontation between creatures.
Avoiding this fierce clash of transcendent beings.
"Roar~"
The Fiery Fire, in Raven form, was not to be underestimated. Its feathers burned with blue flames, each wing flap stirred a storm of flames, deflecting the dragon's attack one by one.
In the next moment, the Fiery Fire let out a earth-shaking cry, its body abruptly expanded, transforming into an overwhelming flaming megabird, surrounded by rolling heatwaves.
Like the sun falling to the Human World.
"It's over." Ian raised his hand slowly, as if issuing an Oracle, the Fiery Fire dove sharply, with a world-consuming might, pouncing on the struggling Ancient Giant Dragon!
The dragon roared, charging forward, its claws slashing through the air with a rock-splitting power directly targeting the Fiery Fire. However, the Fiery Fire's speed far surpassed its own time and again.
Its wings spread wide abruptly.
Like a burning corona suspended mid-air.
This time, the Fiery Fire thoroughly overwhelmed the dragon's breath. Torrid fire waves swept around, enveloping the dragon's body, its scales cracking under the high temperature, emitting sharp cracking sounds. The dragon roared in pain, desperately flapping its wings to escape the fiery bonds, but the Fiery Fire's flames seemed self-aware.
Burning ever more fiercely, finally wholly consuming it.
The dragon's scales began to melt, dripping like candle wax.
The Fiery Fire condensed into a brilliant column of light, piercing the sky and earth. The dragon's silhouette trembled violently in this light column, only able to emit its final wail. When the flames dissipated, this massive body had turned into a charred statue, frozen in its last struggling stance in the air.
As the wind blew.
Countless ashes fluttered into the sky.
The sky returned to silence.
Only the residual warmth of the flame slowly dissipated in the air.
Ian floated in mid-air, the air around him still scorching, the surrounding crowd stood dumbfounded, looking at this scene, as if unable to recover from the shock.
The entire town was silent.
Everyone was looking up.
Watching this stranger, like a Deity standing in the dawn. Xiao Ya and Odin were standing not far away, their faces also full of disbelief.
"Is that… a human?" Someone murmured, their voice shaking.
"How could it be? How could a human have such powerful strength?" Another Trainer widened their eyes, incredulously staring at the sky.
"Did you see? That little stick! He used that little stick to summon that Phoenix!" An elder said excitedly, his eyes still sharp.
But… that wasn't like a Trainer's ability." A young girl frowned, "More like… the power of Fantastic Beasts themselves."
"You mean… he is a Fantastic Beast?" Someone exclaimed.
"Impossible, right?" Someone refuted, "But he looked human!"
"But can anyone explain how he managed to fly? And how he summoned such a level of flame creature out of thin air?" The girl insisted on her views.
"Unless… he's some Legendary Level Fantastic Beast, disguised as a human form."
This statement plunged the crowd into silence.
If that's the case.
That would be incredible.
Xiao Ya and Odin stood at the front of the crowd, looking up at Ian's silhouette, unable to speak for a while.
"He must be a Legendary Level Fantastic Beast! I knew it! Legendary Level Fantastic Beasts can transform into human form." Xiao Ya recalled meeting Ian by the seaside.
She once again altered her already shifted viewpoint.
"He's a Wizard." Odin suddenly spoke, with a firm tone.
"Wizard? But what is a Wizard?" Xiao Ya was taken aback.
"I don't know either, but it's indeed amazing." Odin had never heard the term before but was closely watching Ian in the sky, his eyes full of excitement and passion. No one here understood what a Wizard was, but Odin felt it was his pursuit, silently remembering something in his heart.
The image replayed in his mind.
Sister's friend.
Flames swirling around the boy.
Like a War God descended from the Divine Realm. The boy's figure, illuminated by the residual fire, appeared tall and mysterious, as if an otherworldly being.
This scene profoundly impacted little Odin.
With a mortal body.
Rivaling Fantastic Beasts.
That's the path real men should take.
