Hero of Darkness

Chapter 487: Futile Struggle

Kahn stood with a fearless gaze in his eyes as if he felt no sense of threat against this massive one kilometer tall creature who could even take on three of his strongest subordinates on its own while remaining completely unaffected.

”Wait a moment… How can you speak the Draconian language?” asked the Dragon as it suddenly realized that Kahn could converse with it.

”I have had few friends from your species.” spoke Kahn with a smile.

”Nonsense! A mere human befriending our kind? Shameless lies!” exclaimed the dragon in a furious tone.

”Listen… Iʼm not here to fight. Let me go through the door and Iʼll overlook your transgression.” said Kahn in an authoritative tone.

[What?!!] exclaimed all the subordinates inside Kahnʼs shadow as soon as they heard his words.

The dragon himself had his maw wide open and eyes popping out of the sockets. It could not believe what Kahn just said.

”You… will let me go? Have you gone senile from the fear of dying at my hands, human?” asked the guardian dragon.

To his query, Kahn only replied in a soft tone…

”Well, you havenʼt anyone from my side yet so thereʼs no reason for me to kill you. Thatʼs why Iʼll show you mercy and let bygones be bygones.” said Kahn casually.

”Ha ha ha! Haha ha! Hahahaha!!” laughed the dragon loudly. His maniacal laugh sent shockwaves in the 2 kilometers radius just through its intensity.

”Arenʼt you too brazen, human? Your hubris and demeanor exceeds even us dragons.

I would like to see if thereʼs any weight to your words.” spoke the dragon and the very next moment, an insufferable amount of black and purple aura suddenly erupted from its body and spread over the 10 kilometers radius.

Kahn, who was already close to the dragon only 5 kilometers away got engulfed in this aura instantly.

[Master, run! Iʼll create an opening for you!] exclaimed Omega and tried to come out of Kahnʼs shadow.

”All right kids. Let daddy show you how itʼs done.” said Kahn as his figure suddenly emerged out of the dark fog-like aura.

”Is that all? I thought you dragons were supposed to be somewhat strong.”

”What?!...” the guardian dragon had its eyes filled with disbelief.

Kahn wasnʼt even a saint yet but he still remained completely unaffected by its heavy and crushing aura that even suppressed Omega and the others.

”You still have time. If you beg in front of me, Iʼll let you live.” Kahnʼs jarring voice resounded in the surroundings.

”Impudence! Die you scum!” shouted the dragon as it could no longer tolerate Kahnʼs disrespectful words.

It quickly opened its mouth and a black aura suddenly amassed in its neck.

Bang!!

A blistering and chaotic stream of fire filled with darkness element that spread across 5 kilometers in a single go and destroyed all the peaks and valleys covered under snow targeted Kahn and in just a dozen seconds…

Kahn was completely engulfed by this horrifyingly destructive flame.

BOOM!!

Shatter!!

A massive crevice formed as the dragonfire destroyed everything in its wake and finally, the gigantic dragon who burned Kahn alive spoke in a jarring voice…

”Pesky little bug dared to talk down on me. Iʼd rather stay here alone for eternity than swallow an insult like that.”

To the dragon race, their pride as a superior species in the world was everything. So no way would the guardian dragon let Kahnʼs remarks slide.

But as the black smoke from the dragonfire waned…

”Impossible!!” shouted the dragon with a flabbergasted expression.

”Is that it? Man, youʼre the weakest monster Iʼve ever seen. Even the Drake I met nearly 2 years ago was more powerful and threatening than you.” a carefree voice resounded from the other end of this region.

Kahn in his black and gray longcoat suddenly appeared out of the black fog, completely unscathed.

”How… how are you still alive?! Even those monsters who fought with me would be gravely injured to the point of no recovery.

Then how come youʼre not dead yet?!” screamed the dragon in a bewildered voice.

”Who knows? Maybe because Iʼm too handsome.” replied Kahn with a charming smile and marched forth towards the dragon.

”As you can see, Iʼm not dead.”

Spoke Kahn as he opened his arms and walked towards the enemy like a certain king of wakanda.

”So why donʼt you give it another try, you winged lizard.” challenged Kahn openly.

”Winged lizard… did you just call me a winged lizard?!!

Preposterous! Unacceptable! Insolence!” yelled the guardian dragon, thoroughly enraged to its core.

And without holding back, it charged at Kahn and again attacked with dragonfire, this time, even fiercer.

Bang!!

BOOM!!

Ripples of black fire destroyed the terrain as the dragon reached 2 kilometers close to Kahn and relentlessly attacked with the fire to burn him to cinders.

Hundreds of crevices formed on the ground from the destructive force of its attacks.

And yet when the fire subsided and the residue of the battlefield became clear… it had its maw wide open again.

”Tch! Iʼm getting more disappointed.

Are you really a dragon? I feel like youʼre scamming me.

Shoo! Shoo! Go away! Bring the real dragon here.” said Kahn with a disappointed expression.

”You bastard! What the hell are you?! How are you still alive?!” exclaimed the guardian dragon as it could not comprehend how Kahn still remained unaffected while even the tall mountains in the surroundings were destroyed by the brute and destructive nature of his dragonfire.

”Why should I explain it to a weakling like you? Get out of my way, loser.

I donʼt have time to waste on a fake dragon like you.” replied Kahn as he used quicksilver and appeared even closer to the dragon.

”Move… or you will be moved.” spoke Kahn in a tyrannical voice as it threatened this ginormous dragon who could kill tens of thousands of enemies just with its dragonfire.

”Die you freak!!” shouted the dragon and attacked Kahn with its massive claw.

BANG!!

Another burst of dust erupted as it attacked Kahn physically this time.

But when Kahn reappeared again, completely uninjured just like before, the dragon started having an existential crisis.

”You want to know who I am? Well, I have a few titles of my own. You can call me by one of them.” elaborated Kahn.

”What title is it?” asked the dragon, acting wary of Kahn for the first time.

To this question, Kahn let out a wide grin and replied in a sinister tone…

”Monarch of Darkness.”
