Hero of Darkness
chapter-300

Kahn finally used the first-ever skill that he cultivated himself after an entire month's effort and hard training. His fruits of labor finally had a proper moment to be used.

Ever since he started training in magic, his priorities were always about building a solid foundation and hence, Kahn had extensively studied and mastered different elements to a degree that compared to other mages, the spells and skills cast by him were already 3 times more effective than others of his rank.

Although he wasn't close to someone like Ezekiel, the semi-saint mage of the pureblood faction, he wasn't far off in potential since the latter was a semi-saint while he was only an Intermediate rank magician.

But throughout the past one month, he was trying to mix different elements by using the Elemental Fusion and Elemental Transformation skill he got after eating Solomon's core.

These two elven species' innate skills allowed him to operate as well as restructure mana and form a synergy between these different elements.

And that was why, apart from the Holy Magic or Light Element, Kahn had very good control over other elements of nature.

Because of this, his rigorous training and experiments in infusing these different elemental swords that counteracted each other most of the time finally balanced themselves to form this gigantic greatsword.

And now, it became Kahn's ultimate swordsmanship attack skill as he could also add darkness element to strengthen it even more.

"FUCK!!" cursed Victor and put all of his aura scythes and activated all of his defensive skills to save himself from this godly sword.

As soon as Kahn loudly shouted the attack skill name and made the swinging movement from where he was standing, the ginormous sword that reached close to the top floors of the arena attacked the opponent.

BOOM!!!

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Four layers of giant defensive shields and aura scythes tried to protect Victor but in front of this force of pure destruction.. All of them cracked like an eggshell instantly.

The battleground shattered and hundreds of long and deep crevices formed in the 3 kilometer wide battle ring.

The impact from the Dragon Strike skill sent tremors in the ground and the entire battle arena shook as if there was an earthquake.

Millions of people among the crowd were scared witless as most of them thought that soon, everything will collapse and that'd be their last day of life.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully executing the Dragon Strike skill.

The skill has been registered. Would the host like to know the detailed information?] asked the system as it was the first time Kahn successfully created a skill without any form of assistance.

Kahn already knew that he couldn't always rely on the system and in the future, he had to create skills by himself so this was just a first step for him.

[Not now.] spoke Kahn and used his Hunter Intent to locate Victor amidst the large cloud that formed after the explosion from his Dragon Strike.

After two minutes, the dust cloud finally settled and a red demonic creature with bloodied and wounded body was finally revealed to the whole empire through broadcasting screens.

Victor, the fan-favorite and the most betted person on was now lying in the ground, barely breathing. Even after using all of his lifesaving skills.. He barely managed to hold onto his life and not die on the spot.

Thud! Thud!

Kahn's heavy footsteps echoed through the battle arena as he walked among the debris of the now shattered battle ring.

Soon, he reached close to the opponent who was barely conscious and gave him a contemptuous look through his fiery helmet.

If Victor looked like a demon, then Kahn in Drakos Armor looked like the boss of that demon.

"I.. I cannot lose. Not to you… not to anyone." spoke Victor as he groaned in pain.

He tried to muster every bit of strength in the body but apart from his mouth, he couldn't move a muscle.

Step!

Kahn stepped on the bloodied and profusely bleeding chest of the 3 meter tall true demon in front of the whole crowd and whispered something that only they could hear.

"Know that you're still alive only because I want to avoid the unnecessary troubles and consequences of killing you. So swallow down your defeat like a warrior and move on.

The whole empire is watching, so at least lose gracefully." spoke Kahn as he summoned Lucifer back in his right hand and released the blistering heat from his body again.

Shrink! Shrink!

At this moment, Victor's body shrunk back to its original size as he panted heavily and tried not to faint.

Silence! Complete silence!

Not just the crowd in the arena but all the people throughout the empire were stunned on the spot.

The young swordsman whom they hadn't even heard of before this competition had successfully defeated one of the most favored candidates who came from one of the highly prestigious clans and background in the empire.

To normal people, he was only a swordsman but to the saints of the empire.. They saw his true potential as someone who even surpassed the other magic swordsmen of their generation in terms of potential.

Because currently, there were only 4 swordsmen in the whole empire who had mastered 5 different elements and could use them in their swordsmanship attack skills.

And two of those names included Stronoff Mikealson, the commander of the Mikealson Clan from the neutral faction.

While the other one was the clan leader of the reputed Vandereich clan from the pureblood faction, Ismaetrazel Mor Vandereich.

The number one and number three strongest swordsmen of the Rakos Empire.

In their eyes, the Dragon Strike skill used by Kahn was comparable to a first stage saint even though it's half in size, strength and without world energy. Especially to Stronoff and Ismaetrazel, both of whom are actually watching the match.

"This kid.. He doesn't know how to hold back at all.

Revealing his rank and that armor set was acceptable but this skill.. It's just too flashy.

Now things will get more complicated if I try to recruit him." spoke Ismaetrazel to himself.

In the now destroyed battlefield, Kahn looked down upon the barely conscious opponent as he put the burning lucifer on his shoulder.

His figure appeared like a legendary warrior as he spoke in a domineering voice..

"My power shall be absolute!"
