Chapter 299: Killer Move

In front of billions of people watching throughout the empire, two monstrous figures one of whom was 3 meters tall in height while the other one was of the normal 6 feet and 3 inches human size. Both the figures with four and two horns respectively were clashing in a death battle.

Sparks flew on the battlefield as two sharp-edged weapons banged against each other while trying to tear through the opposition.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

The battleground sizzled from the intense heat released from Kahn's Drakos Armor while it crackled from the other end as Victor in his true demon form had released an immensely chaotic demonic aura.

"You.. Can't defeat me." growled Victor as his voice echoed after the demonic transformation.

"Is that so? Just minutes ago, didn't you say I'm not even worthy of standing in the same battle ring as you?" asked Kahn in his mocking tone.

Swoosh!

Just then, a lightning sword broke through the aura scythes and broke the first wall of defense as four more aura greatswords infiltrated inside the storm created by Victor.

Bang!

Multiple explosions happened around the 3 kilometer wide battlefield when Kahn and Victor's massive aura weapons clashed in the air while their owners were attacking each other with multiple swings and slashes in a matter of seconds.

To the majority of the audience, they could only see two red figures clashing against each other so fast that most of them only registered blurs and sparks.

Clang!

Kahn threw Victor on backfoot as he barraged the enemy with his five meter tall aura greatswords and put the buffed-up opponent in a defensive stance.

The reason why both of them often used these aura weapons was that if either of them landed their attacks, the damage done by the highly compressed aura and mana inside them was akin to boulder stomping on an ant.

And hence, both of them were trying to land that one lucky hit and get an advantage in the fight.

Despite Victor's true demon bloodline transformation, Kahn with the attack, agility and defense boost was evenly matched with the opponent thanks to the Drakos Armor & Lucifer with the draconian bloodline effect.

[What kind of element is he using?] thought Kahn during their fight.

There were no elements infused in Victor's attacks but the chaotic energy in them was evenly matched with Kahn's elemental aura swords. To him, it was already comparable to his darkness element attacks and skills that had a lot of power and destructive force in them.

However, Kahn felt a sense of familiarity with this element as if he had seen or felt it before.

BOOM!!

A loud explosion shattered the ground as Kahn dodged an aura scythe that tried to cut him in half.

[So that's what it was!] exclaimed Kahn in his mind as he remembered exactly when he had felt this type of element before.

[It's the Chaos element.] he thought.

Because the last time he felt this element was when he upgraded Jugram, the Berserker subordinate to High Lord rank by mixing him with the demonkin semi-saint, Dormammu Volstov.

Jugram had awakened a bloodline specialty after getting merged and unlocked a Unique rank monster variant species called Chaos Demon.

And on the day of his evolution, he exuded the same aura that matched the one from the true demon opponent.

Kahn hadn't paid attention to it back then because he wasn't efficient in sensing minute details about elements or mana since he wasn't even a beginner rank magician at that time.

But now, he could tell the difference and feel how powerful his opponent was. If not for his armor, Kahn would've already lost the match since he couldn't even activate the Hero of Darkness title during daytime and using Berserk God Mode in front of so many saints was an extremely bad idea.

Because even the rare bloodline of the true demon only made Victor 3 times bigger and stronger while Kahn's berserk god mode made him 5 times stronger for a short time and that too without making any visible changes to his body.

Apart from that.. The Asura Mode was also out of option since Kahn was a pure human and not some halfbreed or descendant of a rare bloodline either. So with limited options, the Drakos Armor was his best choice.

Crack! Crack!

Victor launched dozens of sharp aura blades and Kahn used the flash steps techniques instead of using side hopper skill as this was also the best method for increasing his mastery and proficiency in this skill.

The curved aura blades made of chaos energy tore through the stone platform and Kahn kept using his new movement skill consistently to avoid them.

If the platform made from stone wasn't able to endure the attacks, then his armor will be pushed back as well.

Kahn started running around the battlefield to avoid the slashing attacks from the enemy as he was looking for an opening.

[System, how much?] he asked.

[Current progress in Flash Steps technique is 58%.] replied the system.

[Good. Inform me as soon as I complete the mastery to 100%. Then I'll settle this match.]

For the next half an hour, the battle continued as the two fierce warriors kept attacking, dodging against each other. Both of them were equally matched in terms of strength and mastery over their respective battle styles.

The battleground kept getting destroyed here and there as the ground shattered after loud explosions and burn aura blades from both evenly matched combatants.

However, in the meantime, Kahn became extremely agile and almost impossible to touch in the eyes of the audience as if he was possessed by a ghost.

His figure kept flickering from time to time whenever Victor almost managed to hit him but the swordsman always came out unscathed. Unlike the true demon who had the advantage is raw brute strength, the opponent wearing the drake armor was as fast as a bullet.

But even now, none of the two were fatigued or lost their strength. The audience was in complete disbelief given how Kahn was controlling the flow of the battle like a seasoned warrior who was unknown to them as a semi-saint swordsman till this match.

[Flash Steps skill progress : 100%

The skill is now available for merging with the Side Hopper skills.] informed the system.

[Later! First, activate them all!] commanded Kahn as he gave a hidden command that only he and the system understood.

Swoosh!!

The next moment, he appeared 500 meters away from Victor.

"Hey, Victor.. As much as I would love to keep sparring with you.. I think it's about time we…

Ended this!" spoke Kahn in a grim tone and let out a burst of fire that lit up his side of the battlefield.

The 3 kilometer wide battlefield was already big enough to hold a thousand people fighting at once but after Kahn's Drakos Armor released this massive explosion of energy, everyone among the audience became certain that they'd be incinerated on the spot if they were present near Kahn.

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!

Kahn suddenly let go of Lucifer and the greatsword levitated high in the air.

Soon, all the aura swords made with different elements flew back to his side and one by one, the 50 aura greatswords started merging in the air.

[Finally.. All the efforts of past month's training are proving useful.] thought Kahn as he, along with all the audience throughout the empire watched a miracle happening in front of them.

The 50 greatswords, each one of which was 5 meters long in height coalesced together around Lucifer and just in a dozen seconds..

A 250 meter long greatsword came into existence!

"Impossible!! It cannot be!" exclaimed a 3rd stage snakekin saint in a VIP room.

"Nonsense!! He's just a semi-saint! And he's not even a mage or a summoner!!" shouted a 5th stage demonkin mage from the neutral faction.

At this moment, there were three godly figures sitting at opposite ends of the battlefield and watching this match calmy. But now, even they also had a surprised expression on the faces.

An old Elf with a hunched back, a white-bearded Tigerkin and a silver-haired Vampire gazed at Kahn who was forming his attack skill.

"I.. I've really underestimated this human." spoke the old vampire in his deep and hoarse voice.

All of them had a baffled as well as a very curious expression on their faces.

The aura of the greatsword was so strong that even all the saints watching it were extremely surprised.

At this moment, Kahn was finally using the skill he created by practicing over a month since the competition started. He wasn't sitting ducks like an ignorant fool when all the other semi-saints were receiving their training from the saints of their respective clans and factions.

Kahn, who had no teacher was creating something of his own on a daily basis, he was attempting to create a new technique after breaking through intermediate rank mage and merging these different elements to create an attack skill after his understanding of magic and mana itself rose to a different level.

"Sorry.. But don't expect me to show any mercy." spoke Kahn in a tyrannical voice that sent shivers in Victor's body.

"Hey.. Somebody wake me up. This.. This isn't real.. This can't be real!" spoke Victor in a jittery voice and shuddered in fear as he felt an inevitable sense of death.

The true demon opponent was rooted on the spot as he saw this gigantic greatsword that was made from blistering heat at the center while lightning and compressed wind blades crackled around the edges. The highly compressed water blades swirled around this enormous sword and the earth element acted as its solid body.

Kahn on the other end moved his right hand towards the air and made a grabbing gesture towards the towering greatsword. As if he grabbed it in hand, Kahn made a vertical slashing move and shouted so loudly that every single person inside the battle arena heard his domineering voice...

"Dragon Strike!!"
