Child of Destiny

...…

Looking at the Sigurd, who was still standing on his spot and did not plan to move, Arthur could feel an immense danger that he had never felt before.

The aura and power of the opposing side might not be the greatest compared to the ones that he had met up until now, but the threat level coming from this person was still the most dangerous of them all for some unknown reason.

Arthur's guess was it was because of the blue flame that was raging around Sigurd, which seemed to be the full release of the Dragon-Slaying Power of the player. The suppression that it was giving him was multiple times stronger than what he was feeling earlier.

Even the Divine Dragon Blood that his race possessed was somewhat weakened just by the presence of this power.

"I guess I have to summon Archon for this one," mumbled Arthur as he felt that only fusing with the Chaos Elemental Dragon was the only way for him to match the current powers of his opponent.

He doubted that even the double fusion with the other Elemental Dragons would not be enough to match the current Sigurd, which was already his limit.

Triple fusion was impossible with his current strength, much less a quadruple one, which should be the strongest state possible for his current powers excluding his fusion with Archon. But that was only possible when a Quest Scenario was triggered, which would lift the restrictions that the system had for him and his elemental dragons.

But before he could call out Archon, the Chaos Elemental Dragon suddenly said to him. [Brat. I discourage you from using my powers at this moment.]

Arthur suddenly paused and frowned when he heard those words and could not help but ask. "Eh!? Why is that?"

[This is a trial for yourself. It is supposed to make you stronger, particularly to further awaken the Dragon Powers within your veins and discover more potential of your soul. It will be a pity to miss this chance.] Answered the old dragon.

Seeing that Arthur was still not fully confused, he added. [You may be able to match the powers of this little Dragon Slayer if you use my powers, but it will not give you much benefit by doing so. It is better to struggle in front of adversity and surpass your limits rather than going through it with ease.]

[At most, you can use others and fuse with them for your possessions, then slowly explore their true potential and surpass your current self.]

[This is a good opportunity for you to fully awaken the slumbering potential within your bloodline and truly embark on the path of evolution to become a True Dragon.]

[Your bloodline belonged to the most noble bloodline of all the Dragon Tribes. So long as you realize its true powers and awaken what it is capable of, you will be able to reach the same height as the most ancient Dragons of this world and follow their steps of becoming a Divine Being just like the Dragon Gods that emerge during the Era of Gods and Immortals.]

[You may be a Transcendent Being, but that is nothing but a starting point that puts you in the lead ahead of the others. Transcending the limits of this realm and reaching the higher plane will still be challenging even for yourself.]

He then paused as he focused on Sigurd, more especially the older Sigurd watching in the distance, before continuing. [From what I can see, this Dragon Slayer is someone from the Ancient Era, or at least his direct ancestors are from that period.]

[He is most likely become known during the Warring Era when all races of this plane are waging wars against each other due to the will of the Gods that they served and have fallen when that era is about to end and transitioning toward the Repelling Era when the True Demons of the Seven Hells tried to invade.]

[I know little about Dragon Slayers that he is talking about since I have been imprisoned much longer before he emerged in providence and became what he is during his time.]

[But I do know some about the powers that he wields. It may be a little different from what I know, maybe because he said that he has created himself, but it is way similar to that particular power that existed during my time.]

Hearing this, Arthur could not help but become a little more interested. "What is it?"

[I will tell you more about it later, but it is called the 'Void Bane'. It is a legendary power that was used by the archrivals of the Dragon Race during the Ancient Era and the eras before it – the 'Void Creatures' with those who stood at the apex called the 'Void Beasts'.] answered Archon.

[It is said to be lost through the passage of time along with the disappearance of those creatures from the Great Void of Chaos.]

…

After talking, Archon was finally able to convince Arthur not to use his elemental dragon fusion with him.

The one that he had chosen-… or two-… was the combination of Tempest and Eira, which were his strongest dragons right beneath Chaos Dragon Archon.

'Elemental Dragon Fusion (Storm and Glacial Dragons): Calamity Harbinger'

Right after he initiated the possession, the set of armor that he was wearing suddenly changed. The black and golden armor changed into a mixture of white and blue while the crimson-red cape on his back turned into a pair of blue dragon wings.

The armors on his forearms, shoulders, sheens, and legs now carried scale-like patterns, which were filled with mysterious and ancient runes.

The round shield turned silver-white, and the patterns on its center became a set of runes forming a snowflake pattern. The edges of this shield also carried a crystalline highlight and a constant release of icy fog.

Meanwhile, the Dragon Spear he was holding with his other hand became filled with lightning currents while its color turned deep blue. Its blade also curved into the shape of lightning while releasing a pulsing light filled with electricity.

His dragon helmet disappeared, revealing his face, while a pair of horns grew from his forehead. The corners of his eyes were also filled with scales, with those on the left being silver-white while the other side was sky blue.

The color of each of his pupils also possessed different colors with one looking ice-cold while the other was glowing with lightning currents.

Boom!

At the same time, the aura that he currently possessed was not much weaker than Sigurd, who just released his true powers.

…

Seeing all of that, Sigurd, who was patiently waiting in the distance, could not help but frown his brows.

Even if he was 'young', he still had fought against the Dragon Race multiple times within the memory he possessed in this avatar. He could not even count how many Draconians and Dragonkins he had killed during those times.

With this, he should be very familiar with the powers that the Dragons possessed. He could also tell that the density that Arthur had in his bloodline was far from being on the same level as those that could pose any threat to him.

But Arthur was showing them these powers that he had seen for the first time. It was not in the memory that this avatar possessed.

With that, he could not help but turn to the old man behind him with a questioning gaze. But right after he turned, he saw that even this Old Sigurd was also frowning his brows while looking at Arthur with great interest.

He had died during the Warring Era, so he did not know about the great invasion of the True Demons, which also indicated that he was unaware of the events that occurred during the Repelling Era.

He did not know that the Transcendent Beings formed a contract with the Elemental Beings, joining forces, to repel the common enemy.

Old Sigurd had no idea about what happened during that era and that contract, much less about the Elemental Spirit Possession ability that the Transcendent and Elemental Beings possessed.

But Old Sigurd was still an ancient monster, so he was able to recover himself quite fast. He just found that the ability that Arthur had used was interesting, but nothing else.

Given his vast experience, he possessed a variety of skills and techniques to match such an ability.

To him, what Arthur had shown him was nothing but a little trick of the Dragonkins.

He turned to the young Sigurd and signaled to test how good this ability was.

Seeing that, the young Sigurd shrugged his shoulders before turning his attention back to Arthur. He grinned widely as he said. "It is much better. It will be too boring if he loses that easily anyway."

"Let's see how good this trick of yours is!" he said as he summoned a pair of wings behind him that were formed by the dense mana that he was releasing.
