Su seemed to only be improving with every attack she blocked or used a shield to deflect. This battle was against a much tougher opponent now that the dragonkin was not taking her lightly. It had trained for a lot of time and was certainly better when it came to battle instinct. If that was all that decided the winner, then it would be an easy win for him.

Unfortunately, Su was not simply a human fighting him. She was a draconic guardian that had accepted the ritual and pledge their life to protect a dragon champion. The blood and the system had been connected from the start. It was not just some small symbolic gesture that someone would use to show status. It was a key to a draconic guardian truly awakening who they were.

This fact was making the blood boil in Su's body. She was feeling more and more instinctual pulls to dodge, attack, and withstand the foe she faced. It wasn't so much the pressure that was tempering her, but the fact that she was properly using the mana that she had not used yet. 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺

The water that had started to splash on to the deck around them was not fazing her in the least. Even the wind picking up around her was considered as more encouragement. The earth elemental mana that radiated around the dragonkin just exacerbated Su's focus on gaining the metal scale skill.

Furthermore, Su had not been holding back. She had already adapted and changed with the dragon blood within her. It was calling her to use the flames that she could use. The flames that she was unique to using as a draconic guardian. The flames that made the opponent she faced retreat every time she managed to fit in in to her movements.

This wasn't all though, Su already had the ability to make a light shield around her that was recovering her bruises and small scrapes while battling. The glow of light caused the shadows around her feet to lengthen and whether she noticed or not, those shadows were slightly wrapping her feet.

This all came to be attributed to the fact that Su was no longer just a single elemental affinity being. She had accepted the ritual and been welcomed by the blood she bonded with. Midnight had awakened her true dragon champion and bonded with Walker very closely. The natural mana had stimulated the blood in her to fully awaken every elemental mana affinity. Since Midnight had that, so would Su, it was only natural that under such battle and emotions, Su would start to show that she subconsciously used these elemental manas.

This was what Rise and Ventus wished to see. They wanted to see just how a human would defend a young dragon champion. How it could be possible that someone they had thought of as weak because of their race was able to adapt and overcome the barriers that would limit them.

It was a sad thought that Terron's dragonkin were being used for this. However, in their eyes, it was worth watching. Those that were fighting here were just acting as stepping stones to bring up a truly respectable draconic guardian. Every dragonkin would feel pride to see a guardian born even stronger due to their training. Due to the fights that they had to guide them.

That was why the next two dragonkin were already itching to take the fight to Su. they wanted to drop the act of waiting and charge right in at full strength. As any good host would do in the arena, Scylla noticed this. She saw that Su was under enough pressure but was pushing to a whole new level. Was straining herself to break the mold restraining her.

This wasn't just about getting a single skill to help her defend everyone, it was about the stagnant feeling that many of them had by sitting on the ship. Sy couldn't just jumbo in the water and defend the ship from underwater monsters. Like many, she was forced to sit and wait.

This was the same feeling that many tamers had. They couldn't fight like the monsters they tamed. Their partners often held a lot of the negatives. Some were able to learn to fight but most were stuck as just a tamer in the background. That was why they had also been attracted to the fight that Su was in. they could feel her emotional energy as well.

"You! Join the fight. Let the pressure rise and show them what our great guardian can do!" Scylla shouted above everyone for the next dragonkin to join. There was not a single second of hesitation as they entered with their ax.

The pair of dragonkin easily adapted to fighting together. They had done so for many years already. The second dragonkin did not hold back in the least. The ax slammed down on to one of Su's twin shields forcing her to step back. It was a sign that she had to adjust and overcome or else she would break, just as the ax wanted her shield to break under its blade.

The additional stress of being attacked by both a long sword with great weight behind it and an ax with great weight behind it made Su a little angry. She wanted to look at Scylla and fight here. The blood inside her wanted to fight the source of the issue. However, Su was still able to hold her emotions. She had once heard that the most powerful people could accidentally crush a mountain in a small swipe of anger. That was why they trained their minds to resist everything.

That sounded exactly like what a guardian should do. Train to resist everything. Taunts would be useless. The elemental attacks of magic and physical attack of nature would be nothing. That was what Su strived to be. Unaffected in the face of any danger so that all behind her could keep living safely.

When the two attacked at once, Su was unable to slam the twin shield back together, there was no if ands, or buts about it. She had to change the way she was fighting. The defensive battle she had going would never work. She couldn't just retaliate. But that in itself was the issue, Su needed to change.

Without thinking much, Su held the shields tighter and let them fall closer to her arms so that she could use the pointed eggs of them. It was something she had already thought about doing, but she had not wanted to turn the shields from their defense to attack. The point had been made so that when the twin shields were together, they could be forced in to the ground and defend a spot better. So that she couldn't be pushed back.

This drastic change was something unexpected. In battle, having something so unexpected would throw anyone off, especially the two dragonkin that had just gotten used to how Si had been moving. There was a moment that the two couldn't move after Su had let their sword and ax deflect off the shields with a loud scrape. This moment had left them open to the stabbing attack of the pointed shields. '

"And now, you! Join the fight!" Scylla had shouted the moment she saw Su adapting. It was the perfect chance to see the limits of what Su could do.

The third metallic skinned dragonkin raced in and used the fallen buckler to deflect Su's shield. The other he managed to knock to the side with a short sword. The third dragonkin had perfectly filled in the new gaps that the other two had. And it perfectly showed Su that she had to fight even further if she wanted to win.

What no one saw coming was that Su would be even angrier after this. So much that she let her emotion take over for a second. Just a second. In that second, the thicker skin she had developed showed the scale patterns it had gained. The dragon eyes that had appeared were seemingly glowing.

Su's nails seemed to elongate and mimic a dragonkin's even more than anyone could have guessed. There were even small spots on her head that made it seemed that horns may sprout to mimic a dragon's horns. Su had unknowingly awakened a similar skill to Midnight's dragonkin transformation skill. She had awakened the draconic battle form known to many of the draconic guardians.

While this form was based purely on their emotions, mana, and situation, Su was using only the most basic of this skill. It was like putting a single toe across the line, but a toe was all she needed. Su had already taken a deep breath and released a wave of flames that hit all three of her opponents. Perfectly masking her actions as she charged and began to unleash a fury of attacks.
