While Michael Ignis looked around in confusion to see where the Devils and the Darkness Gryphon had disappeared to, Nial had appeared behind the Dracos.

He traveled through the darkness, and created several spikes that shot out of the ground to distract Michael as Nial appeared less than a meter behind him.

With a rapid movement, Nial thrust the spear at Michael. The runic constellations of the Tier-2 Runic Spear were activated dark energy. The tip of the spear was shrouded in dark energy and shot out as if it was a crossbow bolt.

Michael\'s golden reptilian eyes narrowed the moment he realized what awaited him. He twisted his upper body while moving his tail at the same time. His tail shot upward, it collided with the spear shaft and pushed it further upward.

Nial lost balance due to the unexpected counterattack, which was what Michael made use of. Michael barely evaded the darkness bolt that had been released from the spear in Nial\'s hand. It hadn\'t been possible for his reinforced flames to destroy the dark energy of the bolt. Thus, he was still scratched by the sharp edges of the darkness bolt.

His bleeding stopped immediately which made it look like he had never bled to begin with but the pain was still apparent in his mind. As if that was not enough, Michael noticed that two of his scales had been cut through.

A young original at the Peak of the Prometheus rank was able to cut through his scales despite being reinforced by the blue flames!

\'How is that possible?\' Michael wondered and he turned even more serious than before. Nial had already left his footing and Michael used his tail to coil it around Nial\'s spear.

He was just about to move rapidly and either tear the spear out of Nial\'s grasp or fling Nial around while he was desperately holding onto the spear when a cold shiver spread all over his scales.

His scales began to shudder and his tail stiffened.

"Freeze!" Nial whispered silently as he activated Dominion with the use of dark energy.

He could have used his crimson moonlight, Essence of Darkness, or even Chaos to further increase the potency of Dominion but Nial was in a trial-and-error phase, right now.

Michael froze for less than a second due to the eerie feeling that still haunted him before he could move yet again. However, Nial had already pushed back, holding his spear.

His expression was the same as before. He was calm and not even a single droplet of sweat glistened on his forehead.

Nial had yet to go all out!

Meanwhile, it looked like Michael Ignis had already used a large amount of mana. He was forced to maintain the blue flames because of the opponents he fought. At the same time, his Draconic Transformation drained his stamina rapidly. He couldn\'t maintain either of the two powers for long anymore.

Nial, on the other hand, was fighting with three companions. Michael was not sure how the Dracos Leader could have been led by the nose so easily but their pride as Dracos was on the line! If they were to lose against the Elves, who had appointed a human to represent them, their entire race would be humiliated.

And it would make matters worse if they were to lose the Greater Forest Dragon\'s egg to the Elves. They had planned to use the Dragon egg to build a relationship with other races.

"...What is that power?" The Dracos leader asked the Royal Princess all of a sudden.

​ He broke into a sweat after witnessing the course of the battle in front of him, and he didn\'t like it at all. He had only seen Nial move his lips and Michael freeze in response but he didn\'t hear what Nial said.

However, that was not the problem. The problem was that the two Devils and Nial used a type of energy that was not supposed to exist anymore.

It was something that only existed in legends that ought to belong to the history of the Primal Age. If his memory was not deceiving him, only one being was said to possess the type of energy that seemed eerily similar to the unique energy that had appeared in front of him, and it caused the Dracos Leader to shudder.

He immediately recognized the energy because he had read about the sensation of that energy hundreds of times when he was still young. In his opinion, the history of the Universe had been extremely interesting, especially certain beings that had been feared by everyone.

"How…can he possess this energy?!" The Dracos Leader asked, without letting the Royal Princess answer the first question.

She almost rolled her eyes, not feeling like answering just because the Dracos were a nuisance. However, after thinking about it for a moment, Princess Evalyne couldn\'t help but smirk.

It was a good decision to send Nial into the ring. He was the best representative she could have appointed!

"I think you already know what this power is. At least, you know the energy he is using based on the ugly face you\'re making…not that your face looked good before, but whatever.

As for how he can possess this energy, I have no idea. He just has the power of the God of Darkness even if he is not his descendant or anything like that!"

The Dracos leader had somehow expected this answer but he couldn\'t help but look at the Royal Princess with a wide open mouth.

His jaw dropped to the ground and he couldn\'t say a single word for a while.

The Dracos Leader\'s gaze flitted back to the arena again, his eyes fixed on Nial.

"He doesn\'t even move as if he can\'t see, has the powers of the God of Darkness…and he is an origin human…" He mumbled to himself before his scales began to rattle as a shudder overcame him.

"Don\'t tell me…he has five ability slots like the other origin humans?!"

The Royal Princess looked at the Dracos Leader with schadenfreude and she could hardly control her facial expression.

"If that\'s your biggest concern right now…" She said with a shrug, "I guess he has five ability slots, but I never asked him."

Thinking about it, Evalyne recalled that Nial was also in possession of the Fairies\' Blessing, he had been recognized by Yggdrasil and nature loved him even before they met.

Putting all of that together, it was pretty obvious that Nial\'s constitution was highly compatible with all kinds of powers, even if they repelled each other.

That was also why he had been accepted by the High Elves, the Empress, and even Yggdrasil. He was not only Destroyer but much more than that!

"I think you should prepare the Greater Forest Dragon\'s egg soon!" The Royal Princess said, her expression turning brighter by the second.

"...will that really be necessary?" The Dracos Leader mumbled in response, his focus switching to Michael, who was his last ray of hope.

\'Please…win for us!\'
