Axel nodded and said to them : “Yes, he can ! But don’t worry, Kevin will also be able to give them back access to their energy reserve… Once they’ve all learned their lesson.”
Suddenly, Raven crashed to the ground and a crater formed where his body had landed.
Kevin then appeared at the edge of the crater just in front of him, still his hood over his head and he said to him : “I know you asked for hand-to-hand combat but I’m sorry to tell you this, you’re not really qualified to fight me in hand-to-hand combat.
Even if your technique is perfectly executed, it is still easy to predict and I have already memorized all your sequences of movements.”
Raven got up and after spitting out the blood that was bothering him he looked at him and waited.
Raven was not stupid and he had seen that none of his attacks had succeeded in touching him, moreover even by using the powerful aura of his Divine Dragon he had not succeeded in piercing his defense.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had thought that this Absolute Warrior was weak but in reality it was only because he had not shown his true power.
And every time he had increased his power, this human had done the same, and the most infuriating thing was that he had never taken advantage of his power to surpass him, he had always used the same strength as him, as if he really wanted to give him a chance to beat him fairly.
Raven didn’t want to admit defeat but without using his Divine Dragon form, he had no chance to beat him.
As Kevin saw that Raven had understood that he could not beat him in this way and that he had not tried to break the rules of the fight to win at all costs, he was rather satisfied with his behavior.
He could see that Raven was not ready to give up, and that he was waiting for his proposal, so Kevin thought that maybe there was still hope for Raven to return to his sense and so he said to him : “You and I started off on the wrong foot.
I can also understand that you despised that human who proclaimed himself King when he didn’t have the mark of the pentagram, and I know that the Shapeshifters were also pushed aside by that King and that you suffered a lot because of him, but I’m not like that.
I came here to offer us all a new beginning, where those who are powerful will not take what is not theirs by force, and instead will support and protect our people.
You also disowned me by telling me that I could not be the new King because I was not a mage…”
He then looked at him and as he saw that Raven was waiting still, with his jaw clenched, so he said to him a little annoyed : “If you had come to fight yesterday I wouldn’t have had to show for the umpteenth time that being a Warrior Spirit doesn’t stop me from being a Mage.”
Kevin then removed his hood and looked him straight in the eye before snapping his fingers.
At the first snap of his fingers a bright red ball about a meter in diameter appeared above him and he heard the exclamations of surprise from everyone.
Even Raven frowned, he had never heard of a mage who could also be a fighter, but reality had just blown up in his face.
He had never seen such a gigantic fireball and yet their new King did not stop there.
Kevin continued to snap his fingers and each time the 1 meter diameter ball above him changed color… blue, yellow, brown, silver, green, purple and finally this ball disappeared and a golden short sword that blazed like the sun appeared in his hand and the power that came out from this weapon gave him cold sweats.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKevin suddenly asked him : “Do we still have to continue the fight ? Do you really think that in your Divine Dragon form I will have difficulties to face you.”
Raven looked at this human and his will to fight began to waver, not only had this human just proven that he was capable of fighting and winning against the ancestral fighting techniques that were passed down from generation to generation among the Shapeshifters, but he had also proven to him that he was wrong about him.
This human was indeed a mage and he was the most powerful mage he had ever met… He was able to use all the elements and he had no idea what this golden sword was made of but its power was terrifying.
Raven clenched and unclenched his fists, he had to admit that when he had turned into a Divine Dragon he had completely lost his mind, and he had let his animal instincts dominate him completely.
Dragons were conquerors after all, and the former King was a weakling who abused his power to take over all the resources of their territory.
His Dragon who was the most powerful one of his clan had rebelled against this injustice and had incited him to take strong measures to protect his clan and the Shapeshifters in general.
The oldest of the Shapeshifters and the one who had almost lost his life just before Kevin’s intervention, felt the conflict that had appeared in Raven.
Dragons had the strongest psychic powers between the Shapeshifters, and he stepped forward because for the first time in a long time, his Dragon had just reconnected with Raven’s Dragon, and everything was revealed to him.
As he approached, Kevin motioned for him to stop and the elder then bowed his head and said to him : “My King, let me talk to him, I finally understand…
You told us that the younger generation of Shapeshifters needed us to guide them and teach them to control their animal instincts, but I, the oldest of the Dragon clan, failed to see that Raven had let his animal instincts dominate him, and he did so in order to protect us all.”
