The angry roar of a dragon echoed through the mountains and dense forests. The tyrannical Shattered dragon, once briefly claiming dominance over the woodlands, was now helplessly raging under the restraint of a giant, continuously howling.
But soon its voice turned subdued, for the giant’s fist, surrounded by golden thunder, rained down on its head like a storm.
Although with every punch, its scales would autonomously explode to absorb the impact, the giant’s fists were too strong. Even though its scales could regenerate, they couldn’t keep up with the speed of the giant’s punching.
This giant, surrounded by golden thunder, seemed immune to pain, letting the scales of the vicious dragon beast scatter and explode, tearing apart its muscles and flesh, leaving it bloody and visibly injured, yet he never loosened his grip on the dragon beast’s neck, holding it firmly beneath him.
Soon, the resistance of the dragon beast gradually weakened, its scales exhausted, and its scaled skin ripped open, revealing dragon bones wrapped in shattered flesh and broken fascia.
With a final cry filled with unwillingness and helplessness, the woodland overlord fell into eternal slumber, while the victorious giant stood by the dragon beast’s remains, raising his fist, now exposed with bare bones and covered with cracks, and let out a warcry.
The forest was silent, empty and soundless, all beings bowed down, this giant replaced the dragon beast as the new overlord of the terrain, though the competition here was incredibly fierce, and soon he would face new challengers, endlessly.
"So, it ends here after all."
Overlooking this golden giant who seemed to have established himself firmly in the Dragon Domain, unchallenged, Noah sighed from above.
In just three years, the young Wanderer who once couldn’t even Giantify, has completely transformed, adapted to the explosive growth of his bloodline power, could adeptly change his form, and could fight with the most fierce dragon beasts in the boldest warrior manner.
Now on Sorlon, there was no trace of the Wanderer anymore, such skills like stealth, ambush, concealment had been completely forgotten by the youth increasingly obsessed with the power of his bloodline.
The only skill he mastered from the Wanderer required cleverness, yet he used it in direct combat, applying it to master the techniques of various weapon uses.
The war frenzy attribute, which is essential for Titan Bloodline Awakener, has already shown its signs on Sorlon, this guy growing more obsessed with fighting, starting to enjoy the thrill acquired in battles.
All of this was due to his bloodline steadily intensifying, with such positive feedback, it became hard not to become engrossed in combat.
The real issue lay there; Soron’s Titan bloodline gradually awakened, and his efforts could not be said entirely absent, but only minorly contributing.
This was mainly due to the influence of the Dragon Domain’s environment, probably because of those Dragon-man clans, leading to a faith in Noah.
Then, with Noah’s whim, using Power of Faith to intervene in his bloodline awakening, despite the power level of faith even affecting Titan bloodline positively.
But after three years of intervention, Noah found the Titan bloodline too powerful, even with unrestricted consumption of faith, a strength Divine painstakingly accumulates, still affecting the Titan bloodline limitedly.
Currently, the Power of Faith’s contribution to Sorlon’s bloodline awakening and enhancement has reached its limit, and further improvement is almost impossible. Noah decided not to invest anymore, as the investment didn’t match the output.
Of course, reaching this point, the Titan bloodline in Sorlon is visible at least, and now walking out, claiming the identity of Augustus family’s Bloodline Awakener wouldn’t disgrace the Augustus family, supporting this title.
However, horizontally comparing, Sorlon’s Titan bloodline strength roughly equaled Casius’s initial awakening, while comparing to Uranos who birthed with Heavenly Gifted Weapon is unnecessary, and to his direct ancestor even less so.
Though these harsh facts existed, Sorlon remained excited about this, even somewhat smug. Noah chose not to reveal to him that all his achievements were the result of being nurtured by Power of Faith.
Better let the lad enjoy for a while before harsh reality gradually educated him, people need growth, and now is the perfect opportunity.
Interestingly, Noah found Alexander more surprising due to Sorlon’s rapid bloodline revival speed; the Golden Dragon Lord who initially dismissed Sorlon from afar, considering him a country boy from a small state, now became more diligent than any.
Not only did he become diligent himself, he also transferred all the pressure to his Dragon Sons and Dragon Grandsons; any descendant desiring to laze or escape now received no leniency, and faced whipping.
Anyone refusing to learn and train diligently was trampling the name of the Augustus family, insulting Noah’s blood; such individuals were family traitors, Kingdom’s shame. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel fire.net
