<Lunacy, Worship. And the Way (11)>

Baaaaaang-

An explosion burst out again without any gaps.

Cisco’s body was flung back. Swooosh, she flipped once In the air before landing on the ground.

Boom!

She looked as if she landed gently but the ground shook quite a bit.

Cisco stood up straight and then looked forward.

Chhhhhhh-

The water that absorbed the melting snow looked like curtains in front of Cale.

“…….”

Ooooooooong-

The air was still shaking ever so slightly around her hands and feet.

Cale looked toward the shaking.

– How peculiar.

He heard the Super Rock’s voice.

– She is using mana like aura.

Aura was not something just for the swordsmen.

Martial artists, spearmen, they could all form aura. Aura could be said to be a presence that burst out of someone who had reached the pinnacle of their specialty.

As a result, the foundation of it was different from mana, an aura found in nature.

‘But that Dragon is using mana as if it is aura?’

The reason was simple.

– She must want to fight as a martial artist.

Cisco, the God of Fighting.

She truly preferred martial arts to magic.

– This Dragon’s uniqueness is clear.

Cale thought to himself while listening to the Super Rock’s assessment.

‘Whatever she does is none of my business.’

Flick.

Cale flicked his finger as if telling her to come to him.

“What are you doing?”

His nonchalant tone did not have any emotions behind it.

It was because he realized it from the first exchange of blows.

‘It’s worth trying.’

He did not think that he would lose.

Because of that…

“Are you just going to stand there and watch?”

Swoooooooosh.

Wind gathered by Cale’s feet.

It wasn’t difficult for him to use multiple ancient powers at once now.

“Then I’ll come.”

Tap!

Cale’s body quickly shot forward as he gently kicked off the ground.

“Pfft.”

A big smile appeared on Cisco’s face at that moment.

She too kicked off the ground.

Bang!

Unlike Cale, her step caused an explosion.

‘Hmm?’

Cale’s eyebrow slightly scowled.

Oooooo-

The odd cry surrounding Cisco slowly got louder before the area around her fluctuated.

Only the area around her was oddly fluctuating, resembling heat shimmers.

– It looks like Dragon Fear and her attribute.

He heard the Super Rock’s assessment.

“Ugh!”

“Mm!”

Some of the people watching subconsciously groaned or gulped. This happened regardless of ally or enemy.

‘It’s numbing.’

Cale, who was quickly shooting forward, could feel the goosebumps on his arm.

Cisco’s Dragon Fear suited her attribute.

Fighting.

A person who fights endlessly without stopping. It was extremely sharp, perfectly fitting that attribute. This aura stabbed at both allies and enemies in all directions as if the blank expression she had until moments ago was just a lie. Р

“Ugh.”

He heard someone trying to hold back the pain. It was a familiar voice.

‘Rosalyn.’

She was the one groaning.

She must have spent a lot of energy fighting against that inquisitor with the short red hair as she was finding Cisco’s aura to be difficult to handle.

‘It is understandable.

There is nothing being held back.’

The Dragons around Cale usually considered those around them when they used their Dragon Fear.

However, moderation was not in Cisco’s vocabulary.

It affected everybody in the area. She relentlessly extended her aura as if everybody other than herself was her enemy.

But that allowed Cale to sense it.

Cisco was using her aura to express her will.

‘Fight them all!’

This God of Fighting didn’t seem to care about anything as long as she got to fight.

‘How crazy.

What a crazy bitch.’

As for himself-

‘I’ve dealt with quite a number of crazy people.’

Toonka, Clopeh Sekka… Crazy bastards like them.

Cale was very knowledgeable about the best method to use when fighting against these kinds of people.

There was no need to drag things out-

‘I just-

Need to completely overpower her.’

Oooooo– oooooo–

Cisco’s vibrations arrived right in front of him.

The area around her fluctuated.

‘Did they say she was not affected by any aura?’

The Dragon half-blood Knight, Zenyu, was said to have received Cisco’s attribute.

He could clearly feel that this was a much more upgraded version than what Zenyu had shown.

This attribute was similar to Rasheel’s but different.

Chhh-

Cale moved his hand forward.

There was a water spear in his hand.

– Just leave it to me.

The Sky Eating Water commented and Cale let go of the water spear.

“Go.”

Chhhhhhhhhhhh-

The water spear cut through the air.

Cale’s eyes opened wide the moment it touched Cisco’s heat shimmers.

‘!’

Chhhh-

The flow of water in the water spear weakened.

Of course, it did not disappear. However, he could clearly see that the water spear got weaker once it entered her heat shimmers domain.

‘Maybe that attribute-’

Maybe it wasn’t like Zenyu’s aura that could go up against any other aura.

‘Maybe it makes the enemy’s attacks weaker?’

He needed to look into it a bit more.

Cale threw a few more water spears.

Chhhh-

Chhhhhhhhhhhh-

Around ten water spears flew toward Cisco at once.

Baaaaang! Bang, bang!

Large explosions echoed out one after another.

Cisco used her fists and feet that were covered in the heat shimmers to get rid of the water spears one after another.

Bang! Baaaaang!

However, the continuous breaking of the white water spears made it so that her vision was getting covered by the water made from white snow.

She calmly got rid of all of the water spears despite the situation.

She then looked down at her hands.

“It pierced through my domain.”

Fighting.

Her attribute had a peculiar set of principles to activate.

It changed even more as she started using her mana like aura.

In Cisco’s opinion, the difference between mana and aura was that aura took after the user’s personality or characteristics.

Although mana might be the same for everyone…

Aura was different per user.

That made it so that the mana Cisco used started to take after her personality and attribute, just like an aura.

Her attribute and mana basically fused together, making her Fighting create a unique domain.

She could use as much of her power as she wanted to create a domain.

The proof was these heat shimmers.

Any power that entered this domain, as long as they were equal to or weaker than the amount of power she used, would become weaker.

The amount it became weaker depended on how weak it was compared to the amount of power she used.

‘In some ways, your power is like a curse.’

Just like what one of her fellow Dragons had said to her… Cisco’s attribute was like a curse toward her enemies. It allowed Cisco to overwhelm the enemies whenever she got onto a battlefield.

Her face filled with anticipation.

Cale.

This human was worth fighting.

He had power to fight against her despite her using about half of her full power.

Cisco’s gaze looked dangerous as she licked her lips.

She slowly turned around.

Cale was not in front of her. She wasn’t confused about it. She was already aware of his location.

Cale had moved to her back while she was getting rid of the water spears.

Chhhhhhhhhhhh-

He had numerous water spears around him.

“Go.”

He didn’t give Cisco any time to rest.

Bzzz.

Cisco’s palm felt numb.

It had been a while since she felt this way.

‘An enemy.

A proper enemy!

Someone showing true hostility to me! It’s been so long!’

“Pfff-”

Cisco chuckled as she charged toward Cale again.

‘I want to fight against that old Dragon as well, but!’

There were many individuals here she wanted to fight, but…

‘Let’s take this human down first!

This is so fun!’

The happy Cisco wanted to reach Cale.

She wanted to beat him up.

That feeling of beating someone up was the reason she chose martial arts.

It was such a thrill watching her enemy’s faces being pummeled by her fists.

However, she first needed to handle Cale’s water spears.

Bang!

Baaaaang!

The moment Cisco destroyed a water spear that touched her domain…

“!”

Her eyes opened wide.

‘Huh?’

Her eyes looked confused for the first time.

‘…More-

This water spear-

It got even stronger?’

It was stronger than before.

Baaaaang!

She broke another water spear.

‘This one is stronger too!’

The water spears were slowly getting stronger.

That might explain why her body kept getting pushed back.

She realized something while facing these water spears that were getting stronger.

Her enemy, this human-

He did not use his full power even when going up against a Dragon.

In fact, he was slowly sending stronger water spears at her as if he was scoping her out.

‘Wouldn’t it be fun to fight against the world?’

She had agreed with that comment from the Dragon Lord, which made her choose to stand on his side.

As long as she could get stronger and continue to fight stronger enemies…

It didn’t matter what she had to do or what happened to her surroundings.

Chhhhhhhhhhhh-

The last water spear pierced through her heat shimmer and entered her domain.

The water spear did not get weaker at all.

That meant that it was stronger than her domain.

Baaaaaang—!

Her body was pushed back after she destroyed the last water spear.

She could finally look around.

She had started near the ice wall but she was quite far away from it now.

Cisco raised her head to look at Cale.

She could see the others behind the approaching Cale.

Both allies and enemies…

Everybody was far from her now.

Basically, they were far from the effects of this battlefield.

“Ha.”

Cisco couldn’t believe it.

She had been thinking that both of them had been scoping out each other’s strength as if they were going through a short preparation period.

However, she was wrong.

Cale.

What this human had been scoping out was her strength as well as how much they would affect their surroundings with their fight.

Shaaaaaaa-

A breeze blew by.

The snow had stopped at some point.

As the grey clouds scattered and the rare sunlight shone down…

Cale was the only one in the snowy field around Cisco.

Everybody had become distant from them.

No, it was actually the two of them that had moved away from the others.

Cisco quietly observed Cale before asking.

“Were you worried that the others would get hurt?”

Cale answered her question.

“Cut the crap and show me your full strength.”

Cale was easily turning rude now that he knew there wasn’t anything else to worry about.

‘Whether it is the Dragon half-bloods or the Elves, I’m sure Eruhaben-nim will take care of them.’

Maybe he would soon hear them getting pummeled so hard by him.

‘So let’s take care of this before that happens and go back.’

“Okay. I’ll do that.”

Cisco calmly answered.

Rumble-

He felt as if he could hear thunder.

– Cale, she’s no joke.

The Dominating Aura urgently spoke in an imposing voice.

– Dragon Fear, mana, attribute… She’s mixed them all together!

It was exactly like that.

The heat shimmers had changed.

Ruuuumble-

Similar to how the thunderbolts crashed in the clouds before they shot down…

The heat shimmers were no longer just smokes.

They were now crashing against each other creating these thunder-like roars.

Cisco should not be very visible after being covered by the crashing of these shimmers, but the auras just moved to her side. They did not block her.

Cale raised his hand.

He got even more goosebumps on the back of his hand.

‘This is the real thing.’

This was a true Dragon Fear.

One that had mana and attribute fused into it at that.

Chh!

Cisco pulled one foot back and got into position.

The auras swirled around her.

She looked like a martial artist who had thunderbolts all around her body.

Ruuuumble- ruuuuuumble–

She shot toward Cale with rumbling thunderbolts around her.

The reason was simple.

In the distance…

Baaaaaang—!

Third bishop Hons was shot up into the air with an explosion.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaa-

White gold dust reached the large Dragon half-blood at that moment.

No. A Dragon covered in white gold dust grabbed Hons back the back of his neck.

Bang!

He then slammed Hons to the ground.

“Human, I’m going to take care of you first before fighting against that Dragon.”

A fun battlefield.

Cisco charged toward Cale with anticipation.

She showed no fear or concern.

‘I won’t lose to this human.

I might lose to that old Dragon, but…

There is no way I’ll lose to this human.’

This human’s aura did thrill her when she first felt it, but…

That was it.

Ruuuumble-

It was at that moment.

Through the roars of thunder that filled the area…

Shaaaaaaa- shaaaaaaaaa……

She heard the sound of waves.

“!”

Cisco’s eyes opened wide. Her pupils were shaking.

She subconsciously looked down at the ground she was standing on.

No, she was looking at the snow.

In this vast field…

The snow that covered the whole area…

– Cale, doesn’t this remind you of that time?

The Sky Eating Water commented.

– Remember the chains that bound me?

When Cale first met the Sky Eating Water… She had been tightly sealed by chains as the Water of Judgment.

– It was so hard to break those chains at that time.

She sounded joyful as she said that.

– But now I’m the one using chains?

Baaaaang—!

The ground shot up.

No, large chains shot up from the ground.

One, two, three, four- eight.

There were a total of eight chains that were the same size as the chains that once kept the Sky Eating Water sealed under the lake.

– That chain was the power of a god. The God of War.

The power that sealed her belonged to the God of War.

– I tried copying that power.

This ancient power dared to say that she tried to copy the power of a god.

In addition…

– Cale.

The Dominating Aura pretended to be serious as he spoke.

– This time it is not two gods. There is no way a single Dragon can win against our bluffing. Pfft.

The wind stopped at that moment.

To be more specific, Cisco felt as if everything that existed in this world stopped for a moment.

Of course, the world was moving normally.

Nothing had changed.

However, she was no longer the same.

Ruuuumble-

The Dragon, who looked as if she had vicious thunder surrounding her, raised her head.

Eight large chains…

These water chains resembled eight snakes. Those chains covered the sun and cast darkness down on her.

“Huuuff-”

It was hard for her to breathe.

The reason it felt as if the world was still stopped…

She figured out what it was.

It had been a while, no, this was just the third time she had felt this emotion in her life.

‘Fear.’

A power that came from someone who was not just stronger than her but overwhelmed her in strength…

There was only one existence who could do that.

“…A god-!”

Cale calmly responded to what she barely managed to say in her stiff state.

“A god my ass.”

Just hearing the word god was giving him a headache these days.

Cale lightly motioned with his hand.

“Get her.”

The eight snakes… The white chains started moving.

Cisco gasped while watching.

The shadow, the darkness created by the white snakes, was approaching.

She looked around.

The area surrounding her domain…

This vast field…

The whole thing was covered by a scary aura.

‘Domination.’

This domain dominated by this human named Cale.

She would have to bow her head and be dominated by this human the moment she stepped foot into that area.

Such fear filled her mind.

‘This is more dangerous than Dragon Fear!’

As she realized that fact…

Ruuuumble-

One of the chains entered into Cisco’s domain.

She could see the size of the large chain.

“Ah.”

The water chain did not get weaker at all.

Rather-

Ruuuumble-

It pushed away her auras as if it wasn’t interested.

It relentlessly charged toward her.

-A god my ass. This power is something that can’t even be compared to that. I’m the water that is going to eat the sky!

The moment the Sky Eating Water’s voice filled Cale’s mind…

Baaaaang!

The eight snake chains broke Cisco’s domain.

They then charged toward her.

They were trying to completely bind her body.

Cale had a thought while watching this.

‘Hmm…

I think I got too strong?

Is this okay?’

This Dragon, who was supposedly in the middle of the ten Dragon gods in strength, was easy to handle.

‘I guess it makes sense since I’ve recently fought against the Blood Demon and only been scared by a god?’

The others were growing and getting stronger in this place. Cale was different from the others in that he had not been able to feel how much stronger he had gotten until now.

“If it is like this-”

Dragon Lord.

The leader of the Purple Bloods, even that bastard-

“Might be handleable?”

– Ah.

The Super Rock groaned.

– Cale, don’t you always bleed whenever you have such a thought?

Cale completely ignored the Scary Giant Cobblestone’s voice.
