Chapter 99: Special Skill and 15 Kings - Fire Dragon

The other people who can fight him are Xavier, Theo, Carter, Tyler, Chase, Blake, Shawn, and Kingsley. They are all physical-magic-type and they can handle many enemies at once.

Luna and Faith are [Support] but due to the skills I gave them, they became combat-support-type mages but they can't fight against a brawler since their main abilities are supported.

Austin is a tank, Fiona can use fist because of her martial arts but her attributes and plant element can handle a lot of enemies. Prince is new, similar to Kingsley but Theo knows that he'll have a hard time fighting him due to the fact that the enemy has powerful strength and intelligence.

Xavier, Theo, Tyler, Chase, Blake, and Shawn are for the side in case of the enemy being powerful. Kingsley can already fight but Theo is still clueless about how is he good in battle. But since he already covered his weakness, then there won't be a problem.

Levy moved forward to the grounds and then both of them are silent. They haven't said anything at all.

Theo looked at his stats once again to see his traits.

[Traits: Dignified, Loyal, and wanted strength]

[Nature: Lawful Good]

He sighed as he saw the "Wanted strength.."

It seems like he agreed to fight with us because he seeks strength and to know what is his current capability...

"Initiate Duel," they said in unison as the system started the duel.

[Duel is initiating...]

[Limited-time event is initiating...]

[Random Duel...]

[Duel Start!]

[Surrender-or-die: This duel is a surrender-or-kill battle where you can win by killing or making the other submit onto the opponent.]

John dashes towards Levy who still hasn't made a move a single inch yet.

[Holy Charge!]

A white soothing light surrounded him and then used that energy to reinforce his body. He charges forward at an incredible speed but it seems like this skill was avoided by Levy by his passive skill, [Side Step], a skill that lets you avoid and evade single or continuous attacks.

Even if you use [Meteorical Fall] towards him, he can just dodge all of them using this skill.

[Volcanic Dragon's Wing Slash!]

He leaped as high as possible after dodging the enemy whose balance is still irregular, he made a wing-posture and his arms produced a flame whip.

He moved his arms similar to the flapping wings of the dragon.

John was directly struck by it and it burned it.

[You got hit! -157,474] x3

[You are burned 20,250] x2

Burn is an abnormal status that decreases 2 to 3% of your health per second that lasts for a minute. That is a total of 120% to 180%

When he noticed the burn, he immediately summoned a summoned beast.

[Summon: [Light Stingray]]

A floating stingray appeared and it recovers its perfect condition from being burned.

[You recovered from the burn], the notification notified John.

'It seems like he uses his summons to do something like that. He probably has a lot of beasts and probably a combat-type one.' Levy said to himself as he observed John.

John rushed towards the landing Levy and muttered, [Grand Chariot]

He postured himself on a straight-punch position and then he used the velocity to calculate where he'll land.

When Levy is about to land, a beam of light shrouded John's hand and it created a beam of light that can break through shields, just like Franklin's [Water Sword]

But Levy already knows about his plan and used a skill that lets him defend his defenseless self.

It is a skill that was given by Theo, the [Abrupt Block]. A passive skill that avoids getting hit by a predicted or surprised attack just like what John just did.

Levy's weakness is his unawareness of the enemies lurking in the darkness. The skill [Abrupt Block] for Levy is only supposed to be a skill that allows him to block every single surprising attack that he was unaware of but the predicted option one just helped him on this battle.

With that skill, he landed safely on the ground without his body getting a scratch.

'It seems like he is pretty good...' Levy smiled excitedly as he rushed towards him and pointed his fingers towards him.

[Three-Way Deadlock]

He lunges forward as the spear created a claw-like attack alongside the burn effect of his fire, hitting the enemy but it only wounded him.

John got wounded badly. That attack is a claw attack in the form of a spear.

[Summon: [Sarimanok]!]

He summoned a beautiful rooster-like creature and it healed him a lot, the stingray also removed the burn effect from him.

He is a brawler that is relied on his summons.

He ran towards Levy and planned to make close combat. It is kind of a bad move for him since he is a brawler and the enemy is a spear user. He will get a disadvantage.

But when he almost arrived in front of Levy, he summoned a summoned beast.

[Summon: [Death Knight!]]

A dark knight clad in silver armor appeared with his long sword. The knight immediately slashed Levy but it seems like he predicted the trajectory and there is no damage taken at all.

With his fast thinking, he can predict everyone's attack. That is his innate ability that became his passive skill, the [Eye of Horus]

Its name is also similar to the [Eyes of Light] that somehow evolved into [Dragon Eyes].

He sensed another critical attack and he immediately knew that it is from John. He immediately slashed the knight and then looked into John who is using his fist surrounded by lightning.

[Lightning Strike]

He swung his fist on Levy's chest but since Levy saw and knows how will it act, then he already predicted what is that attack and his trajectory of that swing.

But it is kind of too late and got damaged.

[You got hit! -131,370 health!]

It seems like once the prediction is late and your body hasn't adjusted yet, you'll get damage. If Levy's guess is correct, then the damage must be more than 500,000.

That force is already strong enough to damage 20% of his health.

[Counter-flow]

Levy used a skill that lets him return the full damage of the enemy if the enemy used fire, lightning, sun, or light-elemental damage. Meaning, even if Levy took 100,000, it is supposed to be 500,000.

That 500,000 will go back to him and decrease it to his health.

It is the reverse-card,

[Your hit returned! You received 503,399 damage!]

John's life instantly reduced from 93% to 78%!

John was shocked! He thought that it is a good thing to use that skill since its destructive power is superior to fire.

'Just what is that skill?' John thought to himself as he waited for the [Sarimanok's] cooldown to reset.

[Sarimanok]'s [Heavenly Breathe] let the creatures heal the player for 10%. It is already an insane amount of healing if you compare it to a normal healer that can heal 5% every 30 seconds.

The skill is still at 15 seconds cooldown.

John looked at the [Sarimanok] and his face seems like he is waiting for something.

[Flame Burst]

He pierced the blade of the spear on the ground and suddenly, a magic spear suddenly appeared in his summon's feet.

John noticed it and retreated a few meters back. The flame from the ground surged and burned his summons.

Summons can't be back to life so once his summons got killed, they can't be resurrected unless they have the [Phoenix Feather] that can revive a summoned creature from death.

Levy knows this fact because he also has a [Griffin] summons and an army of [Griffin] allies.

That is why he only damaged them that they can't move anymore. Plus, the burning effect might kill them but when they immediately get back in their home through reverse summoning or the space within the summoning ability will nullify all of their abnormal statuses.

John got surprised but when the flames started to disperse and saw the injured summon, he immediately reversed summoning them back to their real habitats and then let them rest for a while.

The [Death Knight] suddenly attacked Levy but he blocked it with a normal barrier. The [Flame Burst]'s mana reduction is not so costly due to the fact that he leveled it up while in the early stage of the game or the [Blooming Change] in the skills.

With the [Volcanic Dragon's Wing Slash], [Counter-flow], [Three-Way Deadlock], and [Flame Burst], his mana is still at 90% and he still needs one more attack to activate his 'special skill'

He took back his spear and then spun it three times over his head. And then slashed the knight's chausses, making it cripple for the meantime.

He didn't cut it because of the lost leg or to be more precise, chausses won't come back because lost limbs are not regenerative. Plus even though he is just an armor without a physical form, the chausses is acting its leg so once it is gone, he won't be able to walk once again.

He is very kind to the monsters and not to humans, except for his human friends in the guild.
