My Demon Pet System

Chapter 252 - Human Vs Dragon

A second of silence passed between the roar of the bolt that spread at lightning speed through the arena and a loud bang that followed. 

Unexpectedly, under the astonished gaze of Supreme Therion, who was perhaps used to witnessing exceptional events, the impossible had happened in the Sanctum of Infinity.

Urgerross' attack struck Yoichi full force, devouring every part of his body. Any living being without magical powers would have been pulverized by the energy emanating from the lightning, but that was not the case. 

Just as the light beam dissolved, a dazzling red aura took its place at the center of attention. It came from the exact spot where Yoichi's helpless body had last been seen before being struck.

Taking a leap and leaving behind a flashing trail of flame from his arms, Yoichi emerged unscathed from his enemy's attack, flying in mid-air above its horned head. 

Amazingly, his forearms were crossed over each other, and both arms were stationary to protect his face. A familiar grayish smoke snaked from the black scales of Yoichi's arms, which had somehow managed to repel and deflect the attack. 

"What?!" Urgerross growled, unable to believe what had just happened before its reptilian eyes. Right over its horns, Yoichi was flying with his arms locked in front of his face. For the first time in the history of the world, a human had managed to survive a thunder dragon attack with his own physical strength.

The electricity had disappeared upon contact with the primordial flame of the Dragon King's successor, which had consumed every particle of it. Flames as red as Therion's eyes glowed with their light in the bleak storm sky, tearing through the darkness and illuminating Urgerross's face. 

The white dragon stared at the scene as if what Yoichi had just accomplished was an unimaginable feat. 

Yoichi's forearms detached from each other, and while one of his two large armored hands was pointed forward to aim, his right hand remained behind his shoulder, ready to land a punch worthy of his determination.

In that instant, if only briefly, Urgerross could see something in Yoichi's eyes. The thunder dragon sensed the young tamer's strength of spirit, and for a moment, in the presence of such a power, its perennial self-confidence wavered.

The knowledge that another living creature from Lumya innately possessed a small portion of the Sky Ruler's power frightened Urgerross so much that its lower foot was forced to step back. 

Before being hurled violently downward, Yoichi's fist gained additional kinetic energy, and the flames spilling from its knuckles increased exponentially, unleashing his uncontrolled fury.

*BOOM* - When the knuckles of Yoichi's right hand impacted the thunder dragon's forehead, a loud explosion raised a dense cloud of smoke and dust. It was so dense that it covered both challengers for a few seconds. 

"It's not possible. The boy is really doing it," Therion commented from afar, enjoying the spectacle from its privileged seat in the front row. Under its watchful gaze, the flames released by Yoichi's surprise attack roared around the cloud of smoke, splashing inside it like thin tongues of fire. 

Yoichi concentrated on the execution of his blow at his best, exploiting the maximum of his physical strength by increasing the dose of rage and succeeding to hit Urgerross right on its forehead, just below the line of its horns.

The impact was so violent that even the immovable Urgerross was thrown off balance from its previous position, forced to move one of its heavy feet on the floor to avoid falling.

I hit him! Yoichi realized, thinking frantically and pondering about every detail of that fight. At that instant, the sharp knuckles of his black draconic hands pressed with all their strength on the thunder dragon's forehead.

The blanket of smoke and dust dissolved, and the young tamer fell to his feet, ready to begin fighting again. Kenji's enhancement had somehow been strong enough to allow him to shield his body, enter within the electric beam, and strike at full force at his target. 

Although inside a vision, Yoichi had finally observed that letting go of his anger and allowing his emotions to overflow like a raging river gave additional physical strength to his full-body, making his attacks so heavy that they would bother a dragon demon. 

"Haha... hahahah... HAHAHAH!" - Subtly, hiding beyond a thin layer of smoke, Urgerross began to laugh in delight. "What did my tired old eyes just see? Did this inferior human really manage to hit me?" it spoke loudly, making sure Yoichi heard those words. 

After exhausting the heat energy of the blow and experiencing a slight recoil due to his mid-air attack position, the young tamer took a few steps back from his opponent, giving it enough time to recover from its daze. 

"Come on, Urgerross!" he thundered, his voice filled with conviction. "I'm waiting for you." 

Even Therion marveled at those words. Where had the old Yoichi gone? What had happened to the shy and rather reserved boy who was afraid to face the Guardians of the Whole?

"What do my eyes see? Who are you, human?" the great white dragon repeated, beginning to walk on all fours around the arena. The thunder and lightning bolts being shot from the eye of the storm continued to rip through the sky above their heads. 

Yoichi's arms were still imbued with Kenji's magical power, and with a simple attack motion, he had proven to his opponent that just as Therion was superior to any other dragon, his draconic flame was also stroger than any electrical power.

"Who I am doesn't matter," Yoichi answered coldly, as his long blond hair floated in the air due to the wind in that apocalyptic scenario. The red light from the flames that enveloped his hands and arms illuminated his face from below, giving him a grim look. "What really matters is the feat I am destined to accomplish. I will kill you, Urgerross, and your draconic power will join mine."
