"Just as expected from the Red Dragon Emperor at his prime. Truly astonishing power."
Looking at the descending dragon tail, a gleam of light flashed in Ayato's eyes.
It had to be said,
Ddraig was indeed the strongest opponent he had encountered so far, even stronger than Vali in Juggernaut Drive.
Incarnation: Bull!
The next moment, Ayato acted.
His figure leaped up, throwing a seemingly ordinary punch that seemed to drive the entire space's airflow, striking the dragon tail directly.
Rumble!
The void in all directions seemed to ripple visibly.
The flames in the entire space seemed to turn into raging waves, stirring up huge swells.
"Haha, partner, you really get my blood boiling."
With a roar, Ddraig shot straight into the sky, his dragon pupils full of fighting spirit.
Born to fight!
Die fighting!
The legendary Two Heavenly Dragons were such beings.
Otherwise, given their strength, they wouldn't have incurred the wrath of the masses on the ancient battlefield, ultimately ending up being made into Sacred Gears.
"Don't worry, I will grant you defeat."
Ayato's figure soared, his expression extremely indifferent: "So, just show me what you've got."
"Alright!"
Ddraig opened his mouth wide, his aura climbing to its peak. A crimson beam of magical energy surged from his mouth.
That was just a test.
And now, he was truly going all out.
The power unleashed was far beyond what the dragon tail could compare to.
As time passed, the beam of magical energy grew increasingly vast, as if piercing the world, enveloping the entire space.
"I wonder, what kind of Authority will you use?" Ddraig's face showed anticipation.
Crackle!
Golden light appeared.
The vast beam of magical energy, just as it was about to fall on Ayato's head, completely stopped.
The dense golden lightning, although seemingly a thin layer, completely blocked the beam of magical energy.
Boom!
With a roar,
The golden lightning erupted. The beam of magical energy, like tofu, instantly exploded and disappeared without a trace.
"..."
Ddraig's dragon pupils contracted sharply.
Although it was just a simple beam of magical energy, the moment he acted, he had used his own ability to raise his power to the limit.
But now, it had been so easily defeated by Ayato.
"It was worth upgrading non-stop. It seems even a Heavenly Dragon is no match for me now."
Ayato murmured softly, waving one finger. The surrounding lightning gathered like electric snakes, forming a vast golden lightning bolt that shot straight into the sky.
Crack! Crack!
The void shook. The internal space of the Sacred Gear seemed about to shatter.
"This is not an Authority. It's magic?"
Ddraig, coming to his senses, cried out in surprise. The power all over his body erupted, his crimson magical energy transforming into a giant defensive magic circle.
Boom!
The lightning struck the magic circle, directly causing an earth-shattering explosion.
Endless smoke and dust billowed. Ddraig's body flew sideways, crashing hard against the edge of the space.
"Ugh!"
Ddraig groaned in pain, gazing at Ayato and said: "Partner, having such magic, no wonder you are so special."
"But it won't be so easy to defeat me."
With that, crimson flames surged from his mouth.
The flames were incredibly brilliant, as if light itself was shining.
Rather than flames, it was more like extreme destruction.
The Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames!
The Red Dragon Emperor's strongest ability, the ultimate flame that could burn everything.
Once ignited, it would never extinguish.
Even gods would turn to ash in agony.
"If even this can't defeat you, then I will indeed have lost."
Ddraig gazed at Ayato, murmuring softly: "But if you can't withstand it, I will have to act in time to keep you from..."
His words stopped mid-sentence.
As if seeing something unbelievable, his dragon pupils contracted sharply, his face full of shock.
Ayato didn't move. Facing the flames that could burn gods, he simply waved his hand from top to bottom.
Swoosh!
The overwhelming golden lightning flashed, ultimately turning into a brilliant golden beam of light, like a long rainbow, easily cutting through the crimson flames.
Wherever it passed,
The Blazing Inferno of Scorching Flames was swept away and extinguished.
"How is this possible?"
Ddraig exclaimed in horror.
This was his strongest power. In his memory, only a few like Great Red could ignore it.
'Could it be that the person before me could already match such beings?'
"Shouldn't we keep fighting?"
Ayato flicked his finger, dispersing the lightning, and gazed at Ddraig in the distance: "Or rather, I've won, haven't I?"
"Yes, I admit defeat without complaint."
Ddraig sighed, his eyes complex: "After countless ages without knowing what happened outside, a monster like you has been born."
"So, how do you plan to separate my soul?"
"You don't need to know."
Ayato said calmly: "Just remember, don't resist."
After all, the other party was one of the Two Heavenly Dragons.
If he resisted, although Ayato could still succeed...
It might have some negative effects on the Longinus.
That was also why he had agreed to fight him.
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
In the room, Ayato's eyes cleared.
He raised his hand. With a flash of light on his right hand, the Boosted Gear appeared.
Hum!
With a thought, he first used Origin magic power to erode its internal space.
Then,
A light flashed in his other hand, and the golden sword was in his grasp.
Hiss!
The next moment, the golden sword plunged directly into the Boosted Gear.
For a moment,
A crimson light shone brightly, illuminating the entire room in dazzling colors.
Before long,
A red orb of light floated out of the Boosted Gear.
Faintly…
A red dragon could be seen swimming within it.
