Triple X System-Chapter 214: Lightning tornado

’Bam!’

A bang sound erupted, troy appearing in the dargon’s front. Sending a kick to it’s head, several air bullets forming in front. Shooting with outrageous speed, impacting the beast body mid-air.

"Something’s not right, he’s stronger than the last time we fought." The dargon groaned, crashing into a wall. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Some bones in it’s elongated alligator like jaw broken.

As a strength type beast it possessed a high amount of strength. Far surpassing the depicted superhuman feats. But that didn’t hinder it’s agility, no! Further strengthening his stats, with the addition of his lightning ability.

Making it an unmovable force to be reckoned with. Balanced in all it’s physical stats. But, the dargon was dumbfounded just now.

Troy defying every laws possible, not seeing him move. Only feeling the slight change in the air, with troy appearing before it. The next moment it was sent flying back from a kick to it’s head.

Not even given a chance to react and defend.

"Could it be? No~ there’s no way he could’ve gotten stronger on the brink of death." The beast muttered, perplexed on Troy’s sudden power buff.

Ignoring the air bullets, barraging it’s skin. It’s eye widened, seeing it’s body bleeding from Troy’s attack.

"Impressive, you’re still alive. Let’s fix that shall we?" Steadily making his way to the dargon, he didn’t run or leap. Casually walking without any sense of urgency or threat.

Making the dargon’s blood boil more. Swiping it’s claws multiple times, three lines forming a claw slash cut through the air. Reaching about a dozen, infused with the lightning element.

Maintaining his composure, troy stretched his right hand. Muttering but one word.

"Dispel."

Like a command, the lightning claws stopped. Redirected back to the dargon.

’His aura is different. Did he also evolve like falcon?’ Kyle questioned, watching Troy move.

Not only did his speed increase prior to before but also his strength.

[Though he’s gotten stronger from the effects of kiss skill, it’s highly unlikely he’s evolved.] Snow cleared Kyle’s suspicion.

[With every living being there are requirements to fulfill before actually evolving into the next stage. And the more the completion the higher and more demanding the task gets. Requiring more dedication and longer process.]

’I see. So you’re saying this is likely just his normal strength?’

[Not normal in the basic power scale level. But what we’re witnessing is mostly troy full power.]

Meanwhile, back in the battle unfolding. The dargon was unfazed, at the at the dozen of lightning attack heading it’s way. Moving it’s legs forward, it ran towards them.

Now one would’ve expected the lightning to hurt it, but it was infact the opposite. The beast, absorbing the lightning back into it’s body upon contact.

"Your lightning ability is strange~" Troy frowned ducking down, evading a claw to the head.

’Bang!’

Followed by the discharge of the three lines of lightning claws.

"Tell me, how did you obtain your ability?" He asked, an air drill forming to his left hand. Reaching about 4 meters long, aimed at the dargon’s gut.

Sensing the danger in that spinning air drill, the dargon kept back. Just in time before the tip located it’s gut.

"No good." The king coldly said, slashing his left hand. Sending the air drill in a horizontal slash.

"Argh!" The dargon grunted in agony, unable to swiftly block or dodge in time. The king’s air drill slash impacting it, peeling into it’s blue scale skin like a sawing mill.

Leaving a deep slash mark running along it’s chest, blood pouring out.

’The dark flames are eating away at his leg but he doesn’t seem bothered. Could he be immune?’ Kyle shook his head at such ridiculous thought.

The only way troy was able to survive dark flames was because of Lynn’s reverse ability. But he wasn’t with her head now and wasn’t protected.

As even lisa with her innovative combat skills and amazing ability, was wary of dark flames effect. Sensing the potential hidden danger of being caught in it’s clutch.

[From my readings, dark flames effect are operating functional against the dargon and troy.] Snow spoke, Kyle sensing a but incoming.

[But..] She continued.

[There’s a catch. Somehow, he’s controlling the air around his leg to slow down the skill effect. Kinda like like a vacuum.] Snow explained to which Kyle lightly nodded.

Dark flames weren’t just ordinary flames but what he guessed were the first demon flames from athos. The fallen angel, as per his vision. But were still flames nevertheless so it sounded possible.

Still, it didn’t guarantee anyone could cheat dark flames effects. Except now.

....

Meanwhile, the two power houses clashed in a mix of colours. The dargon controlling blue lightning bolts, distributing them evenly across it’s body. To create a swift and explosive force.

Troy on the other hand bore a calm expression. Shielded by a torrent of wind, forming a small barricade shielding him from the lightning attacks.

Redirecting it back to the dargon with controlled air.

"Hahaha! Are you really that scared to die, you hide behind that air thing." The dargon taunted with a smug grin.

A small piece of it’s skin from it’s head falling, via dark flames effect. Tilting his head to the side a bit, troy wore a genuine blank look on his face.

"Are you talking to me?" He slowly asked in his neutral voice. Making a thick blue vein appear at the side of the dargon’s forehead.

"I’m going to have fun slowly killing you." The beast growled, lightning surging at the tips of it’s claw.

"Likewise." Troy replied, matching the dargon’s murderous glare.

Shooting from spot, the ground where it stood formed a crater. From the explosive outburst of lightning it produced, reaching about 3 meters. Separating them apart, the dargon swiped it’s left arm.

’Swooosh!’

The familiar three lines of blue lightning claw slash was produced. Cutting through some pillars and objects, reaching about 7 feet in height. Barraging Troy’s small air torrent barrier.

Now, one would’ve already guessed the outcome against the two. But like a spoiler, it was the opposite. The dargon’s lightning slashes were stopped by Troy’s barricade.

"What!? H—how is this even possible!?" The beast roared in rage with clenched teeth.

’What if~’ A thought popped up in Troy’s head.

The small swirling torrent getting bigger, forming a large sized tornadoe. Uprooting a portion of the castle roof, spiralling like a vibrator on max.

With eyes of disbelief, the dargon watched this tornado split it’s lightning claw slash. Separating it down to size, in smaller pieces. Rotating around Troy in the lightning tornado.

"Such power, there’s no doubt about it. I don’t stand a chance against him." Kyle gritted his teeth, with clenched fist.

During their fight he’d gone all out, maximizing his battle instincts and skill. Still loosing out to a certain king, with a composed face.

But now, witnessing him going all out, Kyle knew in his heart there was never a chance for him.

[Don’t beat yourself up so bad. You did your best.] Snow said, with a comforting soft voice.

’What’s the point of trying if you’re still gonna loose.’ He retorded.

[First of all, there are many factors which caused your loss. The first and main reason is your low demon energy pool. Standing at a mere pitiful 50 points, giving little access for your demon skills activation and retention.]

[The second being you lack battle experience. Becoming a demon in like what? A month ago? Facing off with a brutal ruthless king, challenged with the thirst for power. Drowning himself in countless battles honing his skills.] She spoke, her voice slightly high pitched from her anger.

[Yet you still went toe to toe with him. Managing to inflict some notable damages to him, and even surviving. Least I forget he’s also in possession of two terrifying abilities.] She uttered, puffing her imaginary cheeks.

Listening to her, he could sense the genuine anger in her tone. ’I didn’t know you were compassionate enough to care about my feelings.’

[Don’t get the wrong idea. As your guide, I’m inclined to ensure host survival. Your fate being aligned with mine.] She coldly spoke in a programmed monotone voice.

’Still sounds like a heated xianxia novel of twisted fate to me.’ Kyle shrugged, earning pouting sounds from snow.

’And I’m not sure if I should be offended or happy.’ He thought, grinning at his system fire and ice personality.

’Crack~ Boom!!’

A loud rumbling caught his attention. Looking, he could see the dargon firing off more lightning bolts to the tornado. Further electrifying it, peels of lightning constantly flashing. Along with low rumblings going off, like the natural occurrence of the four elements.

Working in balanced harmony, to create rainfall. Except there was no rain, only the three destructive elements.

’Swoosh! Swoosh!’

Several objects were being sucked into the lightning vacuum tornado. Disintegrated into pieces from the swirling intent, amplified with the lightning.

’It doesn’t matter if he creates a lightning tornadoe. After all, I’m immune to my lightning.’ The dargon inwardly said with a smug grin.
