Chapter 328: Learning
His muscles swelled, veins bulging grotesquely beneath his pale, luminescent skin, and his teeth became larger.
Instantly, the tide of battle shifted again. With terrifying speed and strength, the general charged, axes cleaving downward with ruthless precision.
Orion’s fierce offense abruptly became a desperate defense. Each block sent harsh vibrations through his bones, forcing him into a frantic retreat.
Sweat dripped from his scales, his breathing heavy under the overwhelming pressure.
’This... strength is unnatural!’ Orion thought under pressure, his dual-colored eyes flickering with urgency. Each moment of resistance drained his stamina, the unrelenting onslaught testing every ounce of his physical and mental resilience.
Then, in that critical moment of extreme pressure, a profound realization clicked within Orion’s consciousness.
The Elementary Grade Fire Sword Aura he had grasped long ago now felt more tangible, more controllable, each fiery strike sharpened by pure, unwavering clarity as he realized he had stepped into the realm of Intermediate Grade Fire Sword Aura.
Yet Orion knew he couldn’t remain limited. Drawing in a deep breath, he deactivated the fiery aura abruptly. His blades instantly ceased their blazing inferno, startling the general slightly.
With a surge of resolution, Orion ignited his swords once more, this time crackling fiercely with raw thunderous energy.
Around him, his friends fighting their own battles momentarily glanced in astonishment.
"Thunder Sword Aura?!" Sylvia exclaimed breathlessly, disbelief clear in her voice, yet she quickly refocused on her enemy.
Arya’s violet eyes widened momentarily, shocked by Orion’s hidden element. But the fierce onslaught from the enemy general left no space for further distraction.
