Rise Of The Dragon Emperor-Chapter 144 Understanding his limits mark of a true genius!

Ronan had already understood the basics of elemental manipulation when he was inside the cave of penance.

He had always felt a faint connection to the attacks he produced as while he could not control them perfectly , he could always correct their angle by a few degrees after he released them.

However it was only after his encounter with Shakuni that he truly broke through his limits and learnt the first stage of elemental manipulation.

In that sense he was not a complete amateur like Percy while trying to learn the Armour of flame. Please visit 𝘧𝔯𝙚𝐞𝘄ℯ𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝐞𝑙. c𝑜m

Covering himself in fire, Ronan tried to replicate the armour of flame as per his own understanding but when the fire barely covered his ankles it stopped rising as Ronan quickly understood the limits of his fire manipulation.

His 2% affinity was not nearly enough to pull off a move this complex as it was not a matter of comprehension or learning , but rather a matter of the amount of elemental essense in his body which he did not have a control on..

A mark of a true genius was understanding his limits, and Ronan was someone who understood his limits pretty well and yet posessed an intense desire to break past them time and time again.

He was being beaten badly by Percy right now , as his body had long entered auto -fight mode with his mind focused on how to counter the armour of flames on his brothers body.

However while he failed to create the armour of flames , he realised that in theory he could wrap thunder around his body and become a carrier for lightning that would become a barrier for anyone trying to punch him.

Although it would not have the malleability of fire to become a armour or a usable move it would still become a sort of fence that would stop his brother from punching him repeatedly as at that moment he had an enlightenment which lead to him creating a move at the spur of the moment.

*****

Percy was sure that he had the match in the bag as Ronan was slowing down after taking repeated damage.

Percy knew how one’s body worked perfectly well and while Ronan defended his punches and kicks at the moment and on the surface it seemed like he was fine with his limbs not broken , that was not actually how the body worked.

His hands must be feeling numb after the smaller veins and capillaries suffered from repeated damage and every single time he blocked that damage would accumulate until his hands felt rock heavy and difficult to move.

Percy was already seeing Ronan’s speed drop by about 15% from the start of the rally and understood that it was close enough to what he wanted it to be to finish the fight off!

When the speed became 25% slower Percy planned on ending the fight with a grand move as he beleived that with Ronan becoming that sluggish he could finally pull a fast one and pull of that move past his defenses at point blank range.

However to his shock , Ronan just stopped moving at all as all of a sudden his punch seemed to hit a wall of sorts mid-air as he felt a jolt of lightning on his fist.

Percy glanced at his fists only to be shocked to see a small floating lightning wall alongside the path of his fist which was blocking his punch.

Percy pulled back his right hand and threw a left hook , but it met with the same fate as it was blocked too by the same strange lightning wall.

Pery started to unleash a combo , but while ronan seemed to be moving his fingers at super speed his body was not even moving an inch as every single time Percy tried to punch a lightning wall would block his path.

KABOOM!

After one of Percy’s punch, Ronan saw an opening and attacked him with a lightning bolt at close range however Percy’s Armor of flames blocked it completely as he was left unharmed.

The audience roared in cheers as the sect masters who had stood up from their seats got speechless once again.

The match had taken an interesting turn once more as it seemed like both the kids wer showing impregnable defenses.

It was already a massive shock for them to see the 15 y/o Percy use elemental manipulation, however to see Ronan use it too and that too with such an advanced technique was shocking to them all.

Once again they looked at Alexander to ask what trick was that , but Alexander himself had no idea as to what Ronan was using or where he learnt it.

The younger son was more mysterious than the older one and not even Alexander knew all of his secret moves or his true strength. Nonetheless the strength of the younger one amused him as a big smile spread on his face.

Alexander assumed that it must be a technique that Ronan picked up while being in exile , however even he could never have anticipated that it was something Ronan comprehended mid-fight and created of his own.

While the true functionality of the technique was lesser than the armour of flames , it was still a B ranked technique!

If the sect masters learnt that Ronan created this on the spot then they might have fainted from the shock , as while they found the young Ronan Draco to be able to perform elemental manipulation to be hard to swallow , him creating a new technique on the spot was just unbelievable.

But the truth of the matter was , everyone in that arena including Percy Draco himself who thought he knew the depths of Ronan’s strength the best, were all wrong …

After overestimating Ronan by a huge margin , Percy had still underestimated his true strength by a large gap.

It was a mistake that he was going to pay for soon enough, as Ronan started to make his counter once more!
