Chapter 408: The Earth Dragon’s Power
As I felt my body abruptly shutting down from the blood stings that Drakzen managed to land on me, he hit me with a shadow bolt that pushed me back a few meters and made me land on my back.
Drakzen implied that his blood was poisonous, but it felt much more potent than anything I had experienced.
Still, I kept my composure as I struggled to get on my knees, prompting the devil to rush towards me again with his blade high in the air.
When Drakzen stood before me, he grinned evilly and prepared himself to execute me. However, his expression changed when he noticed I wasn’t the least bit bothered by him.
In the split second that Drakzen waved his sword down, my dearest companion, Yoru, materialized from my shadow in his humanoid form, extruding a powerful aura from his body and deflecting the devil’s blade with his claws.
*Clank!* The sound of Drakzen’s blade getting parried echoed as sparks showered us, followed by Yoru doing a flying kick and striking him in the face, pushing him away from us.
My companion didn’t say anything, but as soon as Drakzen was pushed back, Yoru dropped a holy panacea right next to me, making me smirk.
By the time Drakzen raised his head back to look at me, I was already standing mere centimeters away from him with my staff in hand, placing the purple orb against his chest and releasing a wave of gravity.
I was expecting to make the devil’s body burst, but his constitution was quite durable, and he ended up coughing blood and getting pushed against another snowy hill.
"Yoru..." I muttered to my companion, to which he nodded confidently—No words were needed between us at that moment.
Drakzen released a nova of demonic energy around him to blast away the rocks and snow that had fallen on top of him, only to be met with our barrage of attacks.
