Chapitre 72: Race Against Time

Just when Aghus was about to step forward, Elric dashed out of the thick cloud of dust unscathed. His clothes are ripped apart showing his perfectly toned shining muscles with nothing but lower jeans remaining.

He might have been hit by the sharp water blades but his outstanding dragon skin defense and regeneration allowed him to get back on track in no time.

"Impossible!" seeing that his opponent remained unscathed from his relentless attacks, Aghus decided to focus his power with one final blow. "Let's see you withstand this!"

Despite the hundred miles of distance from each other, Aghus did not remain complacent as he summoned his ultimate killing blow.

His hands reached and pulled back and forth as if trying to compress water at its hardest form! If one could look outside the blue planet, you could immediately see that the water of the water elemental realm is slowly shrinking!

The power that Aghus is preparing against Elric, harnesses the total mass of 30% of the water in the entire water realm.

It was millions of tons of water compressed into a single water blade!

"Hehehehe. Come closer bat. Come closer..."

Aghus could not help but laugh in agitation. The truth is that while his water blades are incredibly deadly, its power can decrease the further it travels. But the more compressed water he gathers to form the blade, the more powerful it gets.

Seeing Elric willingly came closer to him, a huge creepy smile sliced across his crazy looking face.

Aghus's body could not help but shake at the overflowing pressure from the compressed water blade. Elric on the other side was unaware of the compressed water before him and continued rushing to give Aghus a good slash.

Suddenly, Elric felt his danger instinct warning him of an incoming attack and he already knew where it should come from.

"It's a charge attack. I must hurry!" Elric forced out another set of burning wings to give him another speed burst in exchange for more spiritual energy being spent. He knew that everything could end with this single attack. Either he survives or lives, this speed will dictate it the result!

With the even more powerful sword of fire in his right hand, Elric pushed himself at his maximum speed causing his surrounding background to blur in his sight. He only has one thing fixed at this sight at the moment and that is Aghus who is also rapidly grasping the water in his center!

On the other side, Aghus was surprised at the sudden appearance of the other set of Wings of fire at the back of Elric. He had already calculated that he should be able to complete this water blade by the time he steps foot before him.

Unfortunately for him, Elric's sudden burst of speed created a little divergence to his calculation and now he must double time!

"So its a battle who comes first huh.."

SWOOSHK~

SWOSSSHK~

SWOOSHK~

SWOSSSHK~

Aghus's eyes grew redder as he also forced two other sets of hands to aid him in creating the most powerful water blade ever.

As the lord of the water Elemental realm, summoning another pair of hands caused Aghus was just one of his given skills despite its considerable amount of vitality being drained together with unexplainable pain it brings when pushing it out of his muscles...

Both Elric and Aghus are on chase against time who reaches the other first. Is it the flaming sword or the compressed water blade?

The survivor the entire water realm and the last 3 princesses watched this battle as it unfolds before them. Their eyes and mouth gaping as they witness the power and destruction of two creatures before them. They had been in the lowest point of their existence as they finally realized the true evil nature of their Lord Aghus.

However, it seems that the seemingly unexpected arrival of the prisoner human would bring them hope. That is if he successfully defeats Aghus who right now, possess unimaginable power after absorbing thousands of lives from his people.

After all, the result of this battle would dictate the future direction of their entire realm.

If Elric wins, the Authority of Lordship should leave Aghus and choose a different being, it could be perhaps one of the princesses. But if Aghus ends up as the victor, with his vicious and ungrateful nature that doesn't care about the welfare of its being, the water elemental realm is bound to go the darkest part of their history.

Right now, whether they approve of Elric or not, no one could argue that he is the only hope of the whole water elemental realm.

Diana, Donna, Danna and all the creatures of the water elemental realm had their hands held together in hopes of the best possible result.

"Please let that human win. I know I don't like him but please..." Donna prayed with her eyes wide open and an obvious glow of admiration and blush were drawn in her face.

"Father, is this the revelation of your promise? Could it be?" Danna, on the other hand, had her eyes closed tightly, trying to communicate to her dead father's spirit.

"So strong..." Diana could only muster what she has in her mind. Her eyes could hardly keep up at Elric's sonic speed!

The turtle, the whale, the dolphin and the last survivors of the water realm had also their hopes in Elric's shoulder.

~Woooosh~

Elric's speed continued to build up as he left after images after images in his wake. He got the burning sword held from his back for the much easier swing when he reaches his target. His eyes were full of unyielding fierceness while his hair madly waved around in his jet-like speed.

Judging from the direction of attack, Elric had made a small detour to avoid the people of the water realm to be hit by the incoming massive attack from Aghus who doesn't have the slightest empathy for his people.

2 kilometers!

1kilometers!

Badum~Badum~Badum~

Elric could feel his heart pumping wildly with each blurring seconds.

He must reach Aghus before he could unleash that overwhelming power as the expected damage based on its powerful pressure could totally create a major catastrophy to the water realm.

This is a do or die situation!

500 meters!

100 meters!

50 meters-

"Hahahaha! you are too late!" Elric was still roughly 50 meters when Aghus has finally reached the perfect state of his water blade.

Without wasting a breath, he fully unleashed the power of his compressed water blade that has a force strong enough to disintegrate everything in its path or even cut the whole water elemental realm in half!

WATER REALM CUTTER!

WOOOOOHM~

Suddenly, Elric's vision changed that from the light bluish atmosphere to rampaging deep blue scene. The Water Realm Cutter was like a gigantic chainsaw, piercing everything in its path like a hot knife slicing a soft butter.

Elric was unable to reach Aghus despite his overwhelming speed. He had managed to travel thousands of miles in less than 20 seconds but he was still too late.

It was really unfortunate, however, Elric had already expected this much and was prepared all along.

ANCESTRAL DRAGON FORM - Ten Percent!
