As if something exploded, a terrifying pressure exploded from Azi Dahaka.

The people in the surrounding, including the Three Superhuman Leaders; Ali Mahsid, Lemuel Jones, and Sara Avesta fell down, trying to catch their breath.

They couldn’t muster any strength to stand up.

Even though Allen was still a quite a bit in a distance, the wind, created from Azi Dahaka’s pressure, was to an extent that the bangs of Allen, who halted, are swaying. Even his skin and muscle started twitching violently.

Allen narrowed his eyes when he saw Sara suffering, he immediately releases his own aura.

Boom!

His aura enveloped the whole area and unlike Azi Dahaka’s, Allen’s aura was like water, gentle and serene, relieving the people’s suffering.

Cough! Sara and the others finally managed to breathe properly. Their eyes started to become wet in tears.

“Ho~” Azi Dahaka raises his voice in admiration due to feeling Allen’s pressure. If one looked closely, Azi Dahaka’s skin was twitching a bit.

“You have a good aura… it seems like you had already learned how to release the aura of a Monster King… and it seems like you even have a title… that’s rare…”

He is totally carefree.

His voice doesn’t contain any maliciousness at all.

It was like he was just praising his colleague or a close friend.

“From what I know, not all Monster Kings have titles…”

“Then you have one I presume…?”

“Indeed, I have…” Azi Dahaka smiled, though, on his draconic face it looked menacing. “They call me, The Monster King of Demise!”

“Monster King of Demise, what a fitting name…”

“Hehe, is it?” Azi Dahaka started to walk towards Allen.

Their auras were still clashing. As if distorting the space, cracks and sparks appeared in the air.

“However, as the tradition, we welcome you as our little brother, Monster King of Envy, Human King. Here, this gift should be enough for your enthronement…” Azi Dahaka tone rose and he throws Allen a pair of black colored gauntlets, for who knows where he got them.

“This is?” Allen was startled by the gift but he immediately composed himself.

“I got it from one of the sons of Kave, a great Blacksmith of Isfahan.” Azi Dahak explained while walking.

“Why are you giving it to me then?” Kave? The one who leads a popular uprising against him in the Legend?

Allen put the gauntlets on his hands, though he doesn’t know what use they have.

“Monster Kings always have a tradition,” Azi Dahaka answered. “A senior Monster King must gift something to the new enthroned King as a sign of respect and acknowledgment… of course, it rarely happened; after all, it has been a very long time since a new King has been born…

Azi Dahaka finally stands in front of Allen.

“Now then, since the pleasantries have finished, should we go to a new matter?”

After speaking, Azi Dahaka moved his hand in a speed a normal human can’t follow and stab Allen’s chest with his claws.

Azi Dahaka’s claw grazes the space in front of him.

Slow.

Azi Dahaka’s movement is slow for Allen. Though his level is certainly higher than him.

However, Allen had already sharpened his senses since he had appeared.

Swoosh!

Shoo!

Swoosh!

Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

Azi Dahaka and Allen started exchanging blows. The shockwave made from them was enough to send normal people flying.

The start of the battle startled the surrounding people who wanted to watch and immediately, they started running away.

Sara and the two men were better off as they hold on, watching the heated battle that can’t be followed by humans’ cognition anymore.

The strength of the two monsters in front of them left them in awe at the same time fear manifested, enveloping their hearts as if they were gripped by the God of Death.

How could someone be so strong!! They’re basically MONSTERS!!

At this moment,

“Leave,” A voice reverberated.

“Magwayan?!” Sara reacted as she recognized the voice.

“Leave this place, Sara, you will only die…”

“Oh, it seems like you still have some time to care for other matters…” Another voice rang out.

“But Magwayan…” Sara hesitated.

“Is that girl, perhaps someone important to you…?”                          

“I said, leave Sara!” Allen’s voice rose.

Gritting her teeth, Sara let her hand get dragged by Lemuel as they left the scene.

The intense battle was extraordinary and even with just the shockwave from their blows alone caused the destruction of the buildings and roads. Even trees were blown away.

Cry for help and screams rang out from all over the place; intertwining with the sounds of explosions and destruction, as people scrambled away, like panicking chickens.

But the two Monster Kings had ignored their plight and commotion as all their attention was only focused on each other.

“As a newborn, you’re quite strong… aren’t you?” Azi Dahaka has still the leisure to talk which is unlike Allen who was concentrating all his attention on the fight.

Azi Dahaka was still not using any kind of ability and only with just his pure physical prowess. Of course, Allen was doing the same.

He was trying to contend against it with also only just his physique which was boosted to an incredible degree by different Physiologies.

He had even already hastened his thinking using Osiris power and Lightning coursing inside of him.

However, it seems like he really has a limit.

He’s already started to have a difficult time repelling Azi Dahaka’s blows.

He was already mostly on defense rather than offense.

‘Tsk!’ Clicking his tongue, Allen let out whip-like roundhouse kick which was easily blocked by Azi Dahaka’s arms. Electric sparks flowed on his every move.

Azi Dahaka let out a left hook as a repayment which was also successfully blocked by Allen’s right arm.

Offense and defense in one breath.

Allen used this chance to jump away while somersaulting. Mid-air, he instantly summoned a Black colored halberd.

It has an axe blade topped with a spike mounted on a long shaft. On the back side of the axe blade was a thorn.

Allen landed in the ground and spins the Halberd around his body before pointing it towards Azi Dahaka.

‘How strong…’

With that thought, Allen turned his head upwards and met eyes with Azi Dahaka.

The pressure of Allen was now immense. Even so, he suddenly felt a crazed smile growing on his face.

With his left hand, he took his mask and the strange horns, marks and tail appeared.  The pressure from Allen also increased by two times and like an arrow shot from a bow, Allen shot towards Azi Dahaka without any warning.

His Halberd was now burning in Blue Flames while being covered with Lightning.

“Ho!” Seeing his changes, Azi Dahaka let out his feelings of admiration.

“As I thought, you are not human.” The three-headed dragon, Azi Dahaka smiled wryly and widened his 6 ruby eyes to look at Allen who was charging at him. “Humans can never become a Monster King!”

As he was prepared to clash with Allen, suddenly.

Massive bombarding started from an unexpected direction.

“───!?”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

From the sky far above, spinning cones made of blue flames were shot down at the three-headed dragon.

Azi Dahaka looked at the sky but failed to see any enemies that are shooting at him, only spinning cones made from blue colored flames was generating slowly and bombarding him.

While closely avoiding the unending flame projectiles, the three-headed dragon quizzically narrowed his eyes.

“You also have a trick like this, huh…”

Obviously, it was none other than, Allen’s ability.

While closely avoiding the unending flame projectiles, Azi Dahaka ran through the bombardment and the scattered debris.

Even though receiving a few hundred flame fireballs would not be a problem, however, he could feel that these blue flames were not ordinary flames. As expected, several blue flames hit his back and created small cuts and wounds.

From these small wounds, the blood that was spilled suddenly turned into snakes, before it completely regenerates. However, most of the snakes were hit by blue flames and instantly burned into ashes.

It can actually cut through my skin… what kind of flames is this?

Bang!!

When Allen’s blue flame-Lightning coated Halberd and Azi Dahaka’s fist collided, it caused a huge shockwave, creating a huge depression in the ground.

Buildings nearby as well as the road shattered and the fragments scattered like the petals of a glass flower, devastating the city.

Allen heard some pitiful cries and moans of pain from somewhere but he has no time to care about it as he once again swings his Halberd again. His eyes narrowed as he tried to predict what the three-headed dragon was going to do next.

His mind working overtime. He didn’t care about anything and only focus all his attention on the fight. His eyes caught everything, even the minuscule of things.

Allen seems to be dancing while fighting like a bird in the sky. Light as a feather, cutting through the air.

The Halberd was spinning around his body, twirling it like an acrobat.

He twists his body, ducked and moves forward, striking at every possible chance.

At this moment, Azi Dahaka suddenly noticed something unbelievable.

Allen’s power was increasing as the battle continues. With his 6 ruby eyes, he noticed that some part of Allen’s body started producing scales and even the corner of his eyes had it.

This human…

So that’s how it is…

He finally realized something. The human, no his new little brother, the Human Monster King was actually one of those types.

A Hero type existence…

Beings that becomes stronger and stronger when they fight. A very absurd existence…
