As Chaos checked out the amazing Skills he gained by eating these three S-Rank alligator-like Fire Wyrms, the lava pool around 20 meters away from him suddenly trembled, as a creature even larger than Chaos emerged from it!
Splash!
"ROOOOOAAARRR!"
Chaos glanced at it as his crimson-red eyes glowed with excitement…
This life was truly filled with exciting things!
The entity that had emerged, the beast, the creature that had appeared… was something that Chaos recognized a bit… because it looked like him a bit when he was in the form of a dragon, such as right now.
It resembled just that, a dragon. It had four muscular limbs coated withs several layers of armor-like scales, two limbs above its front limb's shoulders, which resembled an extra pair of arms with extra long fingers that were interconnected by membranes, wings, a long and scaled tail with a sharp spear-like tip, although it didn't secrete poison like Chaos', and a draconic head, with blazing crimson-red eyes, sharp fangs, and a majestic crown of golden horns… while it also had a red jewel the size of a car sitting over the middle of its forehead.
The creature exuded the air of a beast that was clearly above the others in here, it shook away the lava over its body, as it was sleeping below the pool, and glared at Chaos, Abyss, and Belphegor with a very annoyed expression… the aura it exuded was powerful even for Chaos. The young vampire dragon couldn't help but grow some admiration for the creature on its appearance and power alone.
"That's… To think that there was such a sleeping monster in here! Lord Chaos, that's a Peak X-Rank Blazing Fire Dragon! It must be the last evolution of these wyrms… it could quite possibly be the parent of all the… ones we had slaughtered," said Belphegor.
"Uwah! It looks so big and terrifying! Let's fight it, master!" said Abyss, expanding in size to match the over 50 meters that the Blazing Fire Dragon reached… although it was a realm below Chaos, it was taller than him for some reason, which made Chaos a bit frustrated, enough to give him the drive to fight this creature.
Chaos was left speechless as he glanced at the majestic beast, despite being of a lower realm than him, he could clearly see an immense battle experience within his glare, his posture was straight and stiff, and his eyes blazed with power… a power that even intimidated someone above his realm!
Chaos felt like his dragon heart began to beat incredibly fast, the challenge that he was about to face wasn't something simple, he was probably not going to beat this one with a mere attack, a claw slash, or a bite, he might as well see this as an actual challenge, a real challenge since he was born!
Although the odds were towards his favor due to his higher realm, the higher experience, the vast amount of abilities and skills, and the height and intimidating factor the Blazing Fire Dragon held was enough for Chaos to consider this as a… threat!
The young Vampire Dragon felt excitement rushing through his body as he activated all of the Skills he could, his entire body overflowing with a crimson-red aura. His muscle strengthened and became burlier, his scales grew new layers and even crystal armor, and his jaws grew hundreds of more fangs, his eyes glowing with the desire to fight this challenge, defeat it, and devour it!
The third eye within his forehead, which was usually closed, opened vertically, overflowing with crimson-red energy, and even making the Blazing Fire Dragon felt some pressure from it…
"Abyss… Let me fight this one alone," said Chaos.
"Sure thing my lord," said Abyss, as she moved aside, expectant, and excited to see her master in action!
Dragon and dragon locked eyes with each other, they had not begun to fight but the pressures and auras that had emerged from their bodies had already begun to fight, two monstrous dragons made of their energy roared against each other, clashing, and fighting, eager for the real fight to commence, they tried to intimidate the other, but they seemed to be in a stalemate…
Despite being of a lower realm than Chaos, this dragon didn't seem any way weaker! He was making up for it by his vast amount of abilities, skills, experience, and wisdom!
However, the Dragon was incapable of speaking, and even if it could, it wouldn't speak anyway, because just as Chaos, it was eager to fight, to avenge its children that were being slaughtered, and to… prove how strong it was, as he saw Chaos as an immense challenge, the same way the young vampire dragon saw the blazing fire dragon as a challenge.
Belphegor and Abyss glanced with expectation… whoever did the first movement would have an advantage against the other!
Or was it?
FLASH!
Chaos was eager to fight, rashly enhancing his body and rushing towards the Blazing Fire Dragon while releasing a loud roar, his jaws opened wide as he harbored a chaos-attribute breath, releasing it that very instant!
However, for some reason, the Blazing Fire Dragon didn't evade the attack!
Why was it?!
The Blazing Fire Dragon opened its jaws with a calm demeanor as its aura concentrated within his throat, a second after, an immense blast of fire reached Chaos's chaotic breath!
BOOOOOMMM!!!
