Aengus, now fully transformed into his fearsome Dragonoid form, was a sight to behold. His body was covered in ck, destructive scales that gleamed ominously under the light, each one like a piece of indestructible armor.
With a powerful beat of his long, wide wings, he shot into the sky, defying gravity as if it held no sway over him. His movement was swift-faster than the eye could track-as he became a streak of ck lightning tearing through the air.
The roar of his eleration shattered the sound barrier, sending shockwaves rippling across the battlefield. In an instant, Aengus closed the distance between himself and the red dragon, his razor-sharp ws outstretched, gleaming with lethal intent.
BOOM!
The collision was nothing short of cataclysmic. A deafening explosion rocked the air as Aengus'' ws mmed into the red dragon with terrifying force. Fire and darkness erupted in a chaotic mix, swirling violently as the raw power of their sh created a massive shockwave. The explosion zed like a miniature sun, casting a blinding light across the battlefield.
The sheer force of their impact sent out waves of destruction. The ground trembled beneath the feet of the soldiers below, whilerge cracks snaked across the earth, as though the itself could not withstand the sh of titans above.
The explosion''s shockwave was so intense that many of the onlookers were blown off their feet. Some screamed as their eardrums ruptured, blood trickling from their ears as they fell to the ground, writhing in agony.
Even the fiercest of warriors, those who had witnessed countless battles, were left speechless. Their eyes widened in disbelief at the overwhelming disy of power, their faces pale as the realization of the scale of the battle before them sank in. This was not just a fight-it was an unearthly, devastating war between two godlike forces.

As the dust settled, Aengus stood tall and unscathed. Before himy the ten human leaders, their bodies crushed, ribcages shattered, and blood streaming from their seven orifices. Lifeless and defeated.
For a brief moment, the battlefield was consumed by stunned silence. Then, with newfound fury, the demons charged, their bloodlust ignited by the sight of their fallen enemies.
The human forces began to crumble, falling one after another. Just as the chaos reached its peak, a thunderous explosion ripped through the sky.
The soldiers of the Dragon Empire looked around in disbelief. Theirmander had vanished—seemingly obliterated by the explosive force, leaving nothing but ash in his wake.
At the center of the devastation stood Be, a chilling smile curling on her lips. Her hands crackled with raw, destructive energy, radiating a deadly power that had just imed another life..
Sienna and Sen watched from a distance, a chill running down Sienna''s spine.
"So powerful!" she muttered, both in awe and envy of Be''s and Aengus''s strength. A longing stirred within her—she yearned for that kind of power.
Be, smiling, approached Aengus and wrapped her arms around him without hesitation.
Aengus felt her soft figure press against his chest, sending his body''s reaction through the roof.
"That was incredible, darling! I knew you''d do it—you''re my husband, after all," she said with a sweet smile, leaning in to brush her lips near his cheek.
Sienna scowled and muttered under her breath, "What a vixen..."
Almost as if she had heard, Be turned sharply, raising an eyebrow. "Did you say something?"
Sienna flinched. "N-No,dy Bellfrost. I didn''t say anything."
Taking advantage of the moment, Aengus quickly pulled away from Be''s embrace.
"Sienna, go see if the humans have surrendered," Aengusmanded, giving her an excuse to escape the awkward situation.
"Y-Yes, my lord," Sienna stammered before hurrying off, grateful for the chance.
Be gave them a suspicious nce, but remained silent as she followed him.

"See that, dear? The lord is powerful and dangerous. Don''t even think of seeking revenge for me," the Wolf Queen advised, her voice firm as she watched the Wolf King finish off a Dragon Empire soldier.
He gave her a reassuring nod. "I know, my love. I realized long ago that I could never stand against him. Besides, he has given us—and our children—great power. We should be grateful, not resentful."
The Wolf Queen sighed in relief, her tension easing.
Bill and Gill watched the horrific battle unfold from a distance, their expressions grim.
Without hesitation, they hurried to join the group of nearly 1,200 surrendered humans.
The defeated soldiers knelt on the ground, pleading for mercy. Their morale had been shattered the moment they witnessed the brutal deaths of their ten battalion leaders.
Aengus began to Skill absorption from the fallen 10 Battalion leaders.

The Rapid Cast seemed satisfied enough..But he felt dissatisfied not being able to get more info on the otherworlder stuff.
Aengus, having just finished absorbing the skills of the fallen 10 Battalion leaders, now turned his cold gaze toward the kneeling humans, their pleas echoing in the silence.
"What are you going to do with them, Sweetheart?" Be asked, her voice soft with concern. "Are you going to kill every one of them?" Despite her demonic heritage, she still felt a tinge of sympathy for the humans, knowing she shared part of their bloodline.
Aengus shook his head, rejecting the idea. "No, mass killing isn''t necessary, even for me." He paused, then added, "I''m going to recruit them into our ranks. You said our army should be called the Army of Liberation, right? Then it should include humans, not just demons."
Be''s eyes fluttered, an amused smile forming on her lips. "But, darling, if you do that, you''ll attract unwanted attention more—on yourself and on us."
