First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340: Fighting the General

With those words, the roaring flames surged violently, condensing into a radiant crescent-shaped arc of searing fire. The spell shot forward at blinding speed, slicing through the sky directly toward the stunned vampire general.

For a fleeting instant, shock and realization flashed vividly across the vampire’s face. His previous assumptions shattered in that single moment. Orion had never displayed spellcasting prowess in their last encounter, leading him to foolishly categorize Orion as merely a skilled warrior.

Now, he faced the stark reality. Orion was both mage and warrior, and far more dangerous than he had ever imagined.

"Impossible!" the vampire general gasped, hastily raising his arms defensively in desperation. The flames slammed into him with explosive force, sending him spiraling downward like a blazing comet.

He crashed violently into the ground below, gouging out a deep, jagged crater. The impact sent a cloud of dirt and debris soaring skyward, scattering violently across the landscape.

A tense silence briefly settled across the battlefield, only broken by the crackling remnants of Orion’s powerful fire spell.

Moments later, the vampire general slowly rose from the rubble, armor charred and smoking, his pale face now twisted into a mask of unrestrained fury. His eyes blazed scarlet, filled with an intense hatred reserved solely for Orion.

"You... filthy human!" he snarled, voice trembling dangerously. "I’ll rip you apart limb by limb!"

Hovering calmly above, Orion looked at his enraged opponent with indifference. He smoothly pointed the Realm Guardian Sword downward, fire jumping gracefully along its blade, illuminating his calm, composed features in flickering crimson light.

"You already had your chance once, bloodsucker," Orion said coldly, voice dripping with undisguised disdain. "Now it’s my turn to properly entertain you."

His spiritual presence surged powerfully, elemental runes activating along his Mana Channels, readying an array of devastating spells he’d meticulously mastered over the past days.

He calmly smiled, looking at the crater below, and said with an evil smile, "Let’s play now."

The battlefield stood silent for a heartbeat, as if the world itself was holding its breath. The once-lush terrain around Orion had become scorched and rugged from the ferocity of his opening strike.

A faint haze of smoke and ember drifted gently in the air, casting a surreal, flickering glow across the grim landscape.

Hovering in the air, Orion watched with a relaxed expression as the vampire general clawed himself upward from the crater, his armor battered and partially melted.

The general snarled viciously, scarlet eyes blazing with pure fury and indignation. With a guttural growl, he clenched his fists tightly, his pale, vampiric body trembling violently as his fury surged beyond restraint.

Suddenly, he threw his head back, roaring fiercely into the clouded skies above. His voice reverberated deeply, echoing like rolling thunder across the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, the vampire general’s body swelled, muscles bulging grotesquely beneath pallid skin as he rapidly shifted into his complete vampire form.

Crimson runes etched themselves into his skin, pulsing ominously with each beat of his accelerated heart. Dark, leathery wings spread from his back, casting a menacing shadow as he surged into the sky.

Black veins crawled along his visage, highlighting the profound and terrifying transformation.

"You’re dead, bastard!" the vampire snarled, voice deeper, resonant, and filled with malevolence. "This is the price of humiliating me!"

Orion remained hovering above, unfazed and calm, the Realm Guardian Sword shimmering gently in his grasp, its flames quietly dancing along the blade. He raised an eyebrow, amused by the general’s bravado, and softly chuckled.

"You seem awfully confident, considering how easily you fell earlier," Orion mocked, deliberately provoking his opponent. "But I suppose it wouldn’t be as satisfying if you didn’t try your hardest."

With a roar, the vampire lunged forward, propelled by powerful wingbeats. Dark blood-red energy swirled around him, merging seamlessly with shadows coalescing along his claws.

He slashed fiercely at Orion, creating razor-sharp arcs of blood-infused darkness. Orion calmly sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the strikes, his movements calm and fluid.

"Pathetic," Orion whispered quietly, a faint smirk on his lips.

The general spun around furiously, eyes glowing fiercely. "Scarlet Abyss!" he cried out harshly, conjuring an immense vortex of crimson and shadow energies spiraling violently toward Orion. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
