Chapter 610: Flame Calamity (1)

The moment the battle starts, Flame Calamity doesn't waste any time as he is completely infuriated because of Jacob's indifference towards him. He was someone with an extremely high status, and his race was noble among nobles!

He was revered by everyone and treated like a king wherever he went, and people trembled under his presence.

After conquering his own domain, he was extremely bored, so he joined the Dark City for one reason, and that was the Dark Battle Arena, where he could fight opponents from other galaxies.

Today was his first day, but he was extremely disappointed when he found that the people here were all weaklings, just like in his home. But he continued since people had assured him that the high-level leagues had extremely strong people who could curb his boredom.

But Jacob's presence gave him a feeling of disgust for some reason, and after seeing Jacob's attitude, he was even angrier, so he wanted to kill him for real. Alas, he couldn't do that here, so he was planning on defeating Jacob by toying with him, unlike his previous opponents, who were killed without even lifting a finger.

"Burn in Hell Fire, you inferior overgrown ant!" Flame Calamity coldly uttered, and the next moment, the one-mile area around suddenly turned ablaze in golden crimson fire, which was extremely hot and could turn anything into ashes!

Jacob was slightly surprised since this magic spell was extremely overbearing, and its rage was vast, unlike any normal epic spell.

Furthermore, as a fire user himself, Jacob could sense that Flame Calamity's fire had a special trait in it, unlike normal fire, and it was extremely dangerous.

Even he felt threatened by those flames, and he knew if he didn't take care of this guy quickly, he might really lose.

So, Jacob moved while covering himself in a layer of water, and he wanted to kill this guy with pure physical force. He could tell he was not using his full force, which might be his downfall.

"Hmph, good plan, but you're overestimating yourself if you think you can contend against me in frontal confrontation!" Flame Calamity sneered as his lips rose in a disdainful smile, revealing her razor-sharp teeth.

He thrust his bone spear, rolling in golden crimson flames toward Jacob's chest as he wanted to send him flying.

But what happened next was surprising for both Jacob and Flame Calamity.

Jacob slashed his sword from the side to change the spear trajectory and made an opening for his other sword to cut Flame Calamity's sword.

However, the moment his sword clashed with the spearhead, Jacob was shocked because the physical prowess behind the spear was no less than his own.

A huge blast occurred, and both of them took a few steps back because of the shock wave.

"You have some brawn; it seemed it won't be over in an instant! Now, don't disappoint me by getting killed after this strike!" Flame Calamity's eyes shimmered with a hint of cruel excitement.

He moved with a flash and lunged toward Jacob while swinging his spear, creating an arc like a crescent moon, "Flame Dragon, Break the Mountain!"

A huge claw-like image suddenly manifested over the incoming spear, giving off flaming killing intent.

Jacob's eyes contorted as he could feel this attack wasn't something he could block with a signal hand and with just magic.

But sensing the incoming danger, Jacob didn't feel fear; instead, he felt his blood begin to boil again as ecstasy washed over his body. He knew this attack wasn't just backed by magic power and physical strength. Instead, it was a martial art of spear.

This was probably the first opponent he was facing who also excelled in martial arts. Furthermore, Flame Calamity demonstrates how martial arts were mixed with magic.

It was the true Combat Magic, which only the Zodiac Warrior Alliance excelled in, but Flame Calamity was in a league of his own when it came to combat magic.

He was forced to use his own martial art he had learned from his old world and had a sudden inspiration seeing the phantom of a giant claw behind the spear.

The time seemed to have slowed down as his mana suddenly channeled into his swords and began to rise like blue flames.

Jacob suddenly crossed his swords like open scissors, 'Deceptive Swords Style, First Rotation!'

A huge clash of golden crimson and blue energies happened, and ghastly shock waves spread around both of them.

The ground under Jacob's feet suddenly cracked as a huge pressure like a mountain was weighing down on him. But his eyes shimmered with excitement as he was in a deadlock with Flame Calamity's spear as powerful mana was gushing out while Jacob was blocking with his own.

Flame Calamity's eyes widened when he saw Jacob standing tall under his spear, and he had blocked it even. This means his physical strength was on par with him despite his bloodline.

At this moment, Jacob suddenly lets his second sword rotate down, and the spear suddenly slides down while his other sword is free. 'Deceptive Swords Style, Second Rotation!'

The alarming bell rang in Flame Calamity's mind, and at this moment, Jacob's other sword suddenly turned into a blue streak as he made a slash upward!

"Flame Blast!" Flame Calamity was able to react quickly. A small flame blast suddenly occurred at his spear tip, and his falling figure suddenly blasted back.

However, Jacob's sword was fast as it already brushed past Flame Calamity's left cheek.

By the time Flame Calamity landed, a deep cut on the other half of his face was visible as blood began to stream down.

Flame Calamity felt hot liquid on the left side of the face with a piercing, burning sensation. It was a pain that he had forgotten for a very long time.

He touched his wound, and seeing the blood on his hand, he muttered in disbelief, "I was wounded?"

"You shouldn't avert your eyes in a battle!" Jacob's ghostly voice rang as he appeared in front of and hacked his swords horizontally and virtually. Moreover, both of them were rotating at extremely high speeds.

'Deceptive Swords Style, Clockwise; Pandemonium!'

A sense of death enveloped Flame Calamity for the first in his thousands of years of existence as his eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared, "Presumptuous! Beast Transformation!"

When both swords were going to decapitate Flame Calamity into pieces, his giant body suddenly released crimson light, and his body size suddenly began to grow, and the shape began to change.

Jacob was astounded, although his swords indeed connected to Flame Calamity, but because of his abrupt transformation and the mysterious power behind it, they weren't able to take his life.

This was a very peculiar situation, and he quickly jumped back while his swords stopped rotating as he looked at Flame Calamity, whose body was now changing. He had a feeling that this giant wasn't simple at all, and after fighting him, he knew he was too strong for a giant.

Now, witnessing his body suddenly transforming, he knew there was something more to Flame Calamity, and his race was not giant. When the Flame Calamity transformation was over, his theory became correct.

At this moment, in front of him, a majestic beast over 20 meters in size with golden crimson scales over his reptile-like body, his giant claws connected to his huge crimson wings.

The horns over his head were shimmering in crimson runes while his beastly eyes were filled with killing intent and a hint of humiliation.

Jacob instantly recognized this beast because he had encountered it in the past, but not like this, as this one in front of him was far, far more terrifying, and most importantly, it was awake!

'A Wyvern!'
