Zal'gor vs awakened Python.

Zal'gor said, "See, Majesty, to survive in this kind of place, you need to have such power, to defeat any beast in this region. I am the chief and king of this place. You should stay in the castle under Chancellor's protection."

Vispeda warned Zal'gor, "How dare you insult Majesty!"

Nova stopped Vispeda and talked to Zal'gor, "You said you can defeat any beast in this region, right?"

Zal'gor nodded, "Yes, in fact, I have already conquered every beast here."

Nova said, "Then do you win against the beast residing inside the volcano's core?"

Zal'gor replied, "There are no beast i don't know in this region. I have explored this place many times; if there was one, I would know, Your Majesty."

Nova asked, "If there is one, can you win against it?"

Zal'gor replied, "It depends upon the species of the beast. Even if it is beast emperor, no one can escape the restraints of the lineage. A lion blood beast can easily defeat a horse beast, even if they are similar in power."

Nova said, "So, you cannot win against a beast emperor."

Zal'gor's pride didn't accept that he couldn't win. Zal'gor knew there were no beast emperors in the region, so he bluffed, saying, "I can defeat even the beast emperor, Your Majesty."

Nova was amused by the confidence of Zal'gor and asked Vispeda to fall back. Vispeda fell back. Nova touched the ground and sent energy waves into the ground, conversing with the planet. The energy reached the depths of the volcano, and he whispered, "Rise."

The ground rumbled as the awakened beast, a colossal python with scales shimmering in the molten glow of the erupting volcano, emerged. The creature towered over the surroundings, its eyes gleaming with a mix of intelligence and primal ferocity.

Zal'gor, standing before the mighty python, felt a surge of uncertainty. The tribal chief had never encountered such a formidable opponent in all his years of hunting. The b

east emperor radiated power that surpassed anything Zal'gor had faced before.

Nova observed the unfolding scene, curious to witness Zal'gor's prowess against a true challenge. The Drak'thar Clan members who had accompanied Zal'gor for the hunt watched with bated breath as their chief prepared for the battle of a lifetime.

Nova spoke to Zal'gor, "Go on, defeat that beast." Zal'gor wouldn't accept defeat without trying.

The fight intensified as Zal'gor and the awakened python clashed in a battle of strength and tactics. Zal'gor leaped toward the python, landing a powerful punch with the 'Drak'thar Fist Fury'. However, the python swiftly countered, smacking Zal'gor with its tail, sending him rolling away.

Undeterred, Zal'gor rose to his feet and unleashed his 'Awaken' form, dragon scales covering his hands and legs. With newfound strength, he charged at the python, using the 'Drak'thar Skill: Red Dragon's Breath'. Flames erupted from Zal'gor's mouth, engulfing the python, but the creature, being a resident of the volcano's core, remained unaffected by the fiery assault.

The python, undeterred, lunged forward with its fangs, aiming to sink them into Zal'gor. Swift and agile, Zal'gor evaded the attack, showcasing his mastery in battle. Realizing that fire-based attacks were ineffective, Zal'gor switched tactics.

Utilizing the 'Drak'thar Skill: Red Dragon's Armor', Zal'gor covered his entire body in dragon scales, increasing his resistance to physical blows. With his hand transformed into a dragon's claw using the combination skill 'Drak'thar's Red Dragon's Claw', he leaped towards the python.

In response, the python attempted to strike Zal'gor with its tail, but Zal'gor skillfully evaded the blow, thrusting his claw into the python's tail. The python bled, and Zal'gor seized the momentum, launching a relentless barrage of attacks that inflicted significant injuries on the serpent.

However, the python, seemingly unfazed by the assault, regained its composure. In a surprising turn of events, it spoke, "How dare you," and with a smirk, uttered the word "Awaken."

Nova and Vispeda, observing the battle, were astonished to witness a beast employing the 'Awaken,' a power normally associated with beings of higher intelligence. The revelation added a layer of mystery to the fight, leaving both spectators eager to see how Zal'gor would respond to this unexpected development.

The python's body began to transform, growing larger and more imposing. It twisted and contorted until it resembled a mythical dragon with scales shimmering in various colors. The ground shook as the dragon spread its wings, and a surge of energy emanated from its majestic form.

Zal'gor, now facing a formidable opponent, narrowed his eyes and tightened his grip on his transformed claw. The flames of determination burned in his eyes as he prepared for the intensified battle.

The awakened dragon let out a roar that echoed through the volcanic region. It unleashed a torrent of flames from its mouth, creating a wall of fire aimed at Zal'gor. The chief swiftly responded by using the 'Drak'thar skill: Crimson Shield.' He conjured a protective barrier of intense heat, blocking the incoming flames.

Seizing the opportunity, Zal'gor leaped through the dissipating flames, aiming for the dragon's vulnerable underbelly. He executed the 'Drak'thar skill: Dragon's Fury,' a combination of rapid strikes and fiery slashes from his claw. The dragon countered with swift tail movements, attempting to fend off the relentless assault.

The battle intensified as Zal'gor and the awakened dragon engaged in a fierce exchange of blows and attacks. Zal'gor utilized his mastery of the Drak'thar arts, showcasing a display of agility, strength, and strategic prowess. The dragon, in return, demonstrated its mythical powers, employing elemental attacks and powerful tail swipes.

As the fight raged on, the volcanic ground trembled with each clash, and the air crackled with energy. Nova and Vispeda observed in awe as the two powerful beings clashed, each determined to prove their supremacy in the volcanic arena.

The awakened dragon, realizing the strength of its opponent, decided to unleash its ultimate technique. It gathered energy in its maw, preparing for a devastating attack. Nova, sensing the impending danger, urged Zal'gor to be cautious and stay vigilant.

Zal'gor, undeterred, focused his energy for a final, decisive move. The clash between the chief and the awakened dragon reached its peak, setting the stage for an epic conclusion in the heart of the volcano
