Speed Is King

Have you ever seen a flying head before?

Probably not.

But in the event that you had, take that chilling image and multiply the fear that you felt by a factor of 10 due to the sheer disgustingness of the face of this particular flying head.

Then multiply it once more by one billion because well, there were one billion flying heads!

The abomination wasn’t kidding in the least when she named her skill Billion Style Shadow Demons!

“Damn it! That’s disgusting! Thank goodness I’ve destroyed its body, it would be really irritating if I had to deal with several hundred billion body parts shooting out- SHIT! It could regrow its body!!” Elliot shouted in horror.

His worst nightmare actually came true just seconds after he visualized it.

The billion heads quickly regrew their shadow bodies and all of it split apart to fire energy beams at Elliot!!

In the distance, Primal Alexander who was fighting with the little boy couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.

“Poor dude. He just managed to power up, and he already had to fight stupid Shadow Realm Primals and their secret moves. Oh well. Good luck.”

Old Wabetto and the fifteen Primals who were giving their all in maintaining the massive Fateless Zone around the sector couldn’t help but curse when the impact of a billion Shadow Primals unleashing their attacks smashed into the Fateless Zone like the biggest sledgehammer in the universe!

“Thankfully the attacks were not on the Primal level individually. If they were…” Primal Jeraxle let his sentence trail off into silence.

By Old Wabetto’s estimate, the billions of attacks launched by the abomination amounted to approximately the combined full powered attack of fifty Primals.

For one Shadow Realm Primal level warrior to wield the power of fifty Primals… Old Wabetto could already feel a massive headache coming up.

The coming days would be extremely dangerous for the known universe. There was no way the Shadow Realm only had two Primal level warriors.

No bloody way.

Back in the fight, Elliot had finally gotten serious. He had unleashed his Awakened Dragon Energy which had completely surrounded him.

And yes, it wasn’t a Red Dragon anymore.

Elliot merely called it Awakened Dragon Energy because he truly had no idea what type of dragon it was.

For one thing, it was a glorious dark brown – dark maroon in colour that was quite difficult to allocate a colour name to.

And for another, his particular dragon had five heads like a full blown hydra.

And he’ll be damned if he called his energy Awakened Hydra Energy.

So he simply removed the ‘Red’.

But truly, his Awakened Dragon Energy was a monster beyond anything Elliot had ever seen or could imagine!

Energy Awakenings were nothing new for the Primals, and they were all able to unleash their own awakened energy beasts if they wanted to.

In fact, quite a few had already done that.

But Elliot’s Energy Awakening was a completely different beast on the outside and on the inside.

Energy awakenings were energy entities which could act on their own battle instincts and pack a literal energy punch.

However, because they were made up of energy, their defenses were quite lacking, and would more often than not, collapse and disperse after being attacked by their enemies.

Still, they were solid distractions for any fighter’s opponent, and the time taken to destroy the energy awakenings could very well determine victory or defeat, life or death.

Elliot’s Awakened Dragon was nothing like that.

It was humongous, unlike its peers, and its energy make up was so unique and so dense that it was even able to withstand the abomination’s attack that was at the level of 50 entire Primals!

50!

Just what sort of power was 50 Primals?

One Primal was already enough to be in control of multiple large empires. If ever a Primal who had the strength of 50 Primals appear, though still far from being a Saint, he or she would definitely be strong enough to be the overlord of an entire fifth of the known universe.

He could just stand in the middle of the universe, point at any of the four cardinal directions, and everything beyond his finger would belong to him!

But Elliot, at his measly King level, had managed to stop such a Primal’s all out attack with just a simple Awakened Dragon that was supposed to be so weak that even normal Primals could disperse it with a single blow, no less!

“What kind of awakened energy is that? How come it’s not mentioned in the intelligence report on this Realm? So unfair! I demand that you disperse that dragon at once!” The abomination demanded unreasonably with her overwhelmingly cute voice.

“Shut up!!” Elliot shouted with surprising grief in his voice. “Only super cute little girls are allowed to make such unreasonable requests! You… Just stick with cursing me and screaming like all the normal monsters!”

“Whaaaaat? I am not a monster! I am a cute little girl… And I don’t want to curse you… I just want you to dispel your dragon and let me kill you! Boo hoo hoo! Why won’t you do as I say? Do you not like me at all?” She said in her annoyingly cute voice once more.

“Grrrr.” Elliot narrowed his eyes in irritation and promptly stuffed his ears with energy so he won’t be able to hear voice any more.

If he had to listen to anymore of her cute voice coming out of her hideous face, he would definitely vomit blood!

“Her cute voice reminds me of Jess and Jen when they were toddlers. I won’t listen to her anymore lest she ruin all the good memories I have of my childhood with her absolute freakshow of a face.” Elliot thought seriously.

He then began to weave his Cosmic Dragon Energy into a powerful Ascendant Rune.

The moment he started doing that, a deep hush fell upon the entire star system.
