Facing the increasingly crazed Void Dragon, Lox had no choice but to respond with even greater caution, keeping his distance and wearing it down.
Relying on numerous preparations laid in advance, along with unbreakable will and courage, the battle was tilting toward an outcome extremely unfavorable for Mag'ladroth.
Every attack from Lox left deep wounds across its body, while faint green motes drifted from those injuries like fireflies.
In ancient legends, after slaying a dragon, dragon-slaying heroes would always bathe in its blood, gaining bodies impervious to blades and spears, as well as strength far beyond what they had possessed before.
Lox did not let any of that scattered "dragon blood" escape either. His figure spun rapidly across the battlefield, continuously absorbing all the leaking energy into his body.
His power had originally been formed from Psyker power condensed through faith, fused with the C'tan power belonging to the Void Dragon.

Looking at Lox before it, the Void Dragon seemed to see a human from ten thousand years ago—one riding a four-legged warhorse and charging at it with a lance raised high.
The more arrogant it had been back then, the more miserable and regretful
