Fierce Battle

"The Poison Dragon's Roar"

Before Belserion and his companion could get close, Sordil unleashed a breath attack, enveloping them in a poisonous mist. After trapping them, Sordil leaped into the mist and flew off in a specific direction.

"Cough cough! When did this brat learn this trick?"

Caught off guard, Belserion lost contact with Acnologia and was now slowly making his way through the poisonous fog, utterly bewildered. Suddenly, a red light appeared before him, followed by a flaming fist the size of a Simuwu Ding) slamming into his face, sending him flying four or five meters away.

But when he steadied himself and looked ahead, he saw no other creatures besides the endless poisonous fog. Although he found no enemy, Belserion knew that Sordil must be nearby, quietly waiting for his chance to strike. He warily scanned his surroundings to prevent a repeat of what had just happened, but unfortunately, he overlooked an important spot, and the attack came again.

"Shadow Dragon's Consecutive Sparrow Flash"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

After being attacked multiple times, Belserion's body could no longer withstand the strain, and he cried out in pain. Before he could regain his footing, Sordil unleashed an icy blue breath at him, shoving him to the ground.

"Boom!"

Belserion, struck by Sordil's breath, instantly turned into a giant block of ice, embedded in the ground of the royal capital.

Just as Sordil secured the first kill, the surrounding poisonous fog gradually diminished and eventually disappeared completely.

"Um?"

Sordil hurriedly looked around and saw the 'drug addict' Acnologia swallowing the last wisp of poison mist. At that moment, Acnologia also discovered the 'sapphire' on the ground and Belserion trapped inside it.

"It seems that Bell and I underestimated your abilities!"

"It seems I underestimated your abilities, Holy Dragon Acnologia!"

The two smiled at each other, then exhaled a breath at each other.

"The Holy Dragon's Breath!"

"The Fire Dragon's Roar!"

Sordil narrowly avoided the attack, only to find that the other party easily swallowed his breath and even let out a burp.

"Holy crap! That Black Dragon Acnologia, could he have inherited his abilities?"

After mentally complaining, Sordil quickly switched his attributes to Iron Dragon Mode to see if the opponent could still swallow his breath.

"The Iron Dragon's Roar"

Once again! His opponent swallowed his breath attack once more, and this time, the opponent didn't even burp. Unconvinced, Sordil began trying out each of his own attributes one by one, hoping to find one that countered his opponent.

On the spectator stands, Diphiya watched as Sordil dispatched Belserion in just a few moves, feeling her worldview crumbling. Murellia and Mevajena shared the same sentiment.

"Is... is this really Young Master Sordil?"

"I think... I guess so!"

Hearing Murellia and Diphiya's conversation, Yelibell asked curiously, "Was Sordil's fighting ability really that bad before?"

Meanwhile, Igneel and the others looked at Murellia with curiosity, hoping to learn some dirt on Sordil from her.

"Sister Yelibell, you don't know this, but Young Master Sordil Fostadu: ' The Light of Wisdom.' Everyone asks him for advice when they have any questions, because everyone knows that Young Master is very intelligent. But absolutely no one would challenge Young Master to a fight or spar, because Young Master's reputation for being a complete idiot in combat is just as resounding as his reputation as the Light of Wisdom '!"

Igneel and the others glanced at Sordil, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Acnologia, and then all seven of them stared at Murellia with looks that said, "Are you kidding us?"

"The Roar of the Sky Dragon"

Acnologia swallowed Sordil's breath once more, thus absorbing all twelve types of Dragon Slayer Magic on Sordil's body. At this moment, Sordil was certain that the Holy Dragon Acnologia Acnologia definitely the provider of the Demonic Dragon Slayer Magic used by the Black Dragon in the anime from his previous life.

Having confirmed that his breath attacks and magical attacks were ineffective against him, Sordil quickly devised a plan. First, he switched to Sky Dragon Mode, casting Gale Wind, Steel Arm Strength, Armor Strength, and God's Knight upon himself. Then, he switched to Iron Dragon Mode, followed by the Augmented Magic, Crown of the Gods, to bring himself to peak condition. Having completed these steps, Sordil wielded his Iron Dragon Sword and charged towards Acnologia.

Although Acnologia didn't understand Sordil's actions, he knew that this attack was anything but simple. So, when Sordil was far away from him, Acnologia directly unleashed a breath attack.

With the enhancement of various spells, Sordil's speed was more than twice as fast as before, so he easily dodged Acnologia's attack and launched a counterattack.

"Iron Dragon Spear - Ghost Firewood"

Seeing the various weapons hurtling towards him, Acnologia no longer dared to swallow them whole as before, but instead tried his best to dodge. However, the moment he made a move, a long Iron Dragon Club struck him in the waist, and he was instantly transformed into a fully drawn bow and sent flying into the distance. While he was flying freely, Sordil quickly switched to Poison Dragon Mode, and after determining the direction of his opponent's movement, he quickly switched back to Iron Dragon Mode.

"Roar"

Acnologia let out an angry roar, then used all his strength to fix his body in place. However, before he could make a move, Sordil, who had been waiting nearby, delivered a ' Iron Dragon's Steel Fist ', sending him flying from the sky to the ground.

As the ground magnified in his eyes, Acnologia knew that if he didn't find a way to reverse his losing streak, he would fall flat on his face and lose the match in a few minutes. Thinking this, Acnologia exhaled a breath to one side, using the force of the breath to propel himself to the other. But how could that scoundrel Sordil let him have his way? So...

"Dragon Slayer Secret Art Technique: Karma Demon: Iron God Sword"

"Boom!"

Dust billowed across the land, completely obscuring Acnologia's figure, while Sordil remained in his attack stance from a moment before, hovering in the sky.

After a while, the smoke and dust cleared, revealing the situation on the ground. Before the east gate of the capital city of Dragunov, there was a bottomless abyss over twenty meters wide. Acnologia was stuck in the center of this abyss like a fishhook, in danger of falling in at any moment. Looking at the scene before him, Sordil instinctively muttered a curse.

"Wow! That move was incredibly powerful!"

In the royal palace

Irene, who had been keeping a close eye on the battle, hadn't taken her eyes off Sordil ever since he used his Augmented Magic.

"Strange! Why does Sordil feel so familiar to me? And the magic he uses is so similar to my Augmented Magic? Am I hallucinating?"

Just as she was marveling at how Sordil had used a similar spell on her, a palace guard rushed to her side and reported, "Your Majesty, General Oddek is outside requesting an audience!"
