Dragon Genesis: I Can Create Dragons-Chapter 256: The battle was over.

"Hahaha~

Father! Just like this!"

Cirri laughed heartily as Kael continued to dodge attacks from all three sides. The battle had continued for 30 minutes now and Kael’s superiority couldn’t be questioned.

Brontis’ sword attacks were reduced to a free ride that pushed him far, far away, and while the lightning infused in his sword did hurt him, with his regeneration, he was back to full health in no time.

Crymorea’s spells were never a threat. As the Sky Dragon, Cirri’s influence was spread all over the sky. The dragon had covered every single part of the sky, and it was impossible to hide anything from her. With Cirri acting as Kael’s eyes, he learned about the incoming spells the moment the Harpy started chanting, giving him all the time in the world to dodge them.

Zepharion wasn’t any different either. The serpent’s strategy was to bite him in half. The problem with that, however, was that Kael was faster than him. To get Kael, he needed to take him by surprise, which again was impossible because Cirri kept an eye on everything that was happening here.

The only way for the trio to defeat Kael was for them to surround him, which Kael made sure never happened. His movements in the air had become so much more refined that he felt like the King of the Air. He would fall, rise, dodge, attack—all at perfect times. Repositioning himself in the air was much easier than on the ground, giving him a boost in his agility. Catching Kael in one place in order to surround him had become next to impossible ever since he had become used to moving here.

Even when more and more time passed, and the trio’s attacks became much more dangerous, Kael stayed calm—confident, even.

"Come."

He grinned at the enemies.

The battle intensified.

As if enraged,

"KREEEEEEKKK!!"

Cymorea shrieked. Her eyes glowed brighter, the mist around her body twisted violently as her spells came even faster.

"Cirri."

Kael called out.

"Let’s end this, Father!"

Cirri nodded in a confident tone, and in an instant, Kael’s eyes changed.

He wasn’t going to just dodge anymore—it was time for him to make a move.

[Draconic Surge]

For the first time since the battle had started, he used a skill.

Whoosh

The wind under his foot pushed him forward, and with his now enhanced agility, Kael weaved through the air like it was water. He ducked low, passed under Zepharion, then pushed up with Cirri’s wind and soared into the clouds.

It was fast—so fast that Cymorea only realized where he was after he was already there.

But it was already too late.

The moment the Harpy looked up—

"Now, Father! Dive!"

Kael dove.

Bam

His foot struck Cymorea’s chest.

"KREEEEEEKKK!!"

The Harpy screamed as she spiraled down, her feathers scattering as she fell.

The instant his kick connected, Kael activated another one of his abilities,

[Ancient Pulse]

For the next 15 seconds, magic far greater than what he, as a human, had access to was now under his command.

Cymorea’s allies, however, did not care about that.

"ROAAAAAAARRRR!!!!" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Zepharion roared, getting Kael’s attention, but then—

"Brace!"

Cirri raised her voice.

Without thinking, Kael raised his sword and braced for impact.

Clank

His sword blocked Brontis’ swing. As their swords clashed, Kael was sent flying once again. For some odd reason, this time, the lightning did more damage than before; his entire arm was scorched.

Not that Kael had the time to worry about it—a surge of wind nudged his right shoulder. He understood the signal and slid left, just enough to dodge the Serpent’s tail.

Indeed, this time, the Serpent had calculated how far Brontis was going to throw Kael and attacked accordingly.

They were improving.

What’s even worse?

They weren’t stopping.

"The Colossus is coming!"

Cirri warned.

Kael looked around and saw the giant being flying towards him at full speed. It wasn’t just him—the Serpent that had just missed was coming toward him as well.

If this was a normal aerial battle, where Kael had no way to move mid-air, this would have been the end.

But a normal aerial battle it was not.

Kael had a way to move.

With Cirri moving the air beneath his feet, he changed his direction mid-air. It was so sudden that it would buy enough time for him to stabilize... if his opponents weren’t what they were.

In front of his opponents, however, this move was not as helpful as Kael expected.

The thing was, unlike Kael, who needed to rely on Cirri to move around, these beings could actually fly. They did not need any ’footing’ to change their direction mid-air—they could do it naturally, like flying beasts. No matter how good Kael got, he could never be better than them when it came to aerial movement, not unless he used [Ascendant of the Ancients.]

The moment Kael changed his direction, Brontis and Zepharion did the same.

There was no way out.

His scorched arm hadn’t regenerated yet either. Brontis, whose speed was faster than his in the air, was closing the distance at a scary pace. Zepharion was already close to him, so even though the Flying Serpent’s speed was slower than his, Kael couldn’t escape since his movement wasn’t free.

It was a pointless struggle, especially considering his [Draconic Surge] and [Draconic Strike] were in cooldown.

In the end, even when Kael tried to change his direction multiple times in order to escape or buy some time, Brontis and Zepharion still managed to close the distance.

THUNDER

CRACKLING

Brontis charged his sword with much denser lightning than before, preparing the final attack. Once he was prepared, the Colossus swung his sword with all his might,

Slice

Cutting Kael in half.

And as if that wasn’t enough,

Whoosh

Zepharion’s large body moved right past Kael as he—

BITE

As he bit Kael’s head off.

Kael’s body, which was now divided into two parts—a headless upper body and a lower body—hovered in the air as his blood splurged all over the place.

Yes, the battle was over.
