Chapter 268 - Against Vayu, The Draconic Father Of Storming Winds! 1
-----
Noah glanced at Vayu, the Draconic Father of Storming Winds, with admiration and a bit of expectation.
It seemed that even as an SS-Rank being, it could give some trouble to an SSS-Rank like him based on its sheer size alone.
But could it?
Noah actually hoped it could do so because he was going to go… completely all out now.
And alone.
By himself, he was going to fight this Dragon. He was decided!
After the bold words from Noah\'s mouth, Noah didn\'t waste any other second and flashed towards Vayu. By using the power of Windstorm, his powerful wings, and his Dark Winds Propulsion Skill, he flew like a crimson-red meteor towards Vayu.
This speed was enhanced even more as he was transformed into the Ancient Scion, enhancing all of his capabilities to even greater heights!
FLASH!
Vayu glared at Noah with their eyes, with a flash of his magic, the winds obeyed his will and they accumulated into a mass of compressed wind, a gigantic 20 meters big sphere of wind!
With a single order, the sphere flashed towards Noah!
This sphere of compressed wind could be strong enough to easily slice through an entire battalion of SS-Rank Hunters and splatter their bodies all over the place… No defensive Skill could ever protect a Hunter from such might!
But Noah wasn\'t even SS-Rank anymore, and he wasn\'t a simple man either.
However, surprising Vayu, he decided to… destroy the sphere of winds!
"Fool, if you try to destroy it, the winds will consume you- Oh?"
Noah\'s claws grew monstrously as he covered them with his soul, and then…!
SLASH!
A single slash of his claws penetrated through space, reaching the wind sphere and suddenly… slicing it in half!
Against all common sense… it sliced it in half!
"What? It is impossible to slice my wind, it is not a physical object- Unless he… sliced through space itself?!"
Vayu was suddenly shaken by this mere act, and the fight had not even started yet!
A being capable of slicing through space… wasn\'t ordinary at all! To begin with, no mortals could even do such a thing…
FLASH!
In a split of a second, Noah reached Vayu as he released his powerful Soul Beast, as enormous tentacles emerged all around his body, attacking the mighty dragon!
"Nnngh?!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Noah\'s powerful soul tentacles were shaped through the use of his Blade Fangs Skill, giving them sharp fangs all over, like vicious jaws, they not only attacked and hit the dragon\'s head, but they also tore apart pieces of his flesh and scales, eating him while fighting!
Vayu had to act quickly if he wanted to live!
"GRAAAAAAH!"
He roared, as he opened his mouth wide open and released a powerful breath of storming winds!
The enormous breath resembled more like a powerful beam of pure Wind Attribute Mana, reaching into Noah, and overpowering his soul!
"Oho?! Good! Let\'s test it!" laughed Noah, as he quickly created a powerful shield using all of his powers, soul, and mana, and the Blood Demon Aegis Skill!
FLASH!
The enormous shield made of his soul and blood emerged, blocking the powerful beam, as Vayu realized that such shield was actually holding on to his might Dragon Breath!
"What…?! Interesting!"
Vayu also began to feel a bit of adrenaline rushing through his entire body, the fight with Noah might really offer some entertainment!
He quickly moved his body at a faster speed than his enormous size implied, suddenly raising his gigantic claws towards Noah, as he blocked them with his own!
CLASH!
The powerful weight of Vayu\'s claws began to press on Noah\'s claws, as he smiled and then swiped his claws!
SLASH!
"NNGH?!"
Noah\'s Crimson-red claws slashed through Vayu\'s claws, and actually cut the powerful metallic claws, which fell to the boundless sky as merely dropped items!
"His spatial attack can even slice through my powerful claws like nothing! How about this then!?"
Vayu roared, as he released another breath attack, which Noah easily blocked with his Aegis, but then!
FLASH!
"Oh?!"
Noah glanced with surprise as Vayu\'s enormous body suddenly twisted around at an incredible speed, coating itself on storming winds, as it used its sharp tail to release powerful piercing attacks against Noah!
Vayu\'s tail was like a gigantic, building-sized spear, its piercing attacks easily began to crack Noah\'s Aegis, as he tried to use his claws to slice it, but suddenly realized of something!
He was merely slicing wind!
"Oh? He\'s coating his own tail with coverture of powerful winds, creating the illusion that it is physically touching me, yet this powerful piercing attack is merely the wind coating the tip of his tail!" thought Noah, immediately realizing the true power of wind manipulation!
"HAH! Let\'s see how far you can take my power, Noah!" laughed Vayu, feeling all pumped up as he quickly shattered Noah\'s Aegis and crushed him with his tail!
BOOOM!!!
Noah\'s entire body gave in to the enormous attack, as his flesh opened wide and his entire torso was penetrated by the winds!
"You\'re done for, it seems!" laughed Vayu.
However!
Vayu suddenly realized that Noah\'s flesh began to tightly wrap around his tail, reaching to it as the winds kept slicing and splattering him all over, but he kept regenerating, fusing himself with his soul and resembling some kind of mass of flesh, blood, and bones coated in jaws, eyes, tentacles, and tongues!
"What kind of thing are you!?" wondered Vayu, as he put more intent into his winds, but Noah laughed, spraying blood all over his tail and then jumping away and flashing above the sky using wings he created right away!
"BLOOD BOMB!"
"Eh!?"
Vayu suddenly felt a searing pain as the blood within his tail detonated!
BOOOM!!!
"UNNNGGGGUUAAAAHHH!"
Vayu groaned in agony, this was the first time he was feeling so much pain!
He glared at his tail as he saw it falling off almost completely!
He quickly averted his gaze from his tail and tried to find Noah, but he was gone from his original position!
And then…!
CLASH!
An enormous force hit his back, blowing him through the boundless skies!
"AGGGRRR…!"
Noah had emerged completely recovered and back up to his previous form, his regeneration knew no limits now!
