Chapter 181 Lumiere Vs Imperial Sapphire Dragon? (II)

Imperial Dragons Arc

---

(POV: Akashic Records)

Eunaria\'s voice carried an air of superiority.

"Initially, I deemed you unworthy of my attention," she revealed, her voice low but filled with power. "But now, I see the truth. You don\'t need to hide behind some feeble [Status Modification]."

Lumiere\'s eyebrow shot up in surprise, his gaze fixed on Eunaria.

"What\'re you talking about?" he questioned.

His [Status Modification] was considered one of the highest, an SSS+ ranking.

No one should possess a high enough [Appraisal] rank to see through it.

Then again, Eunaria?s 「Imperial Dragon Physiology」 begged to differ.

It granted her— High-speed Regeneration ? Enhanced Physicals ? World Acuity ? Reinforced Spirit ? Dragon Soul

Through her [World Acuity] she could think, see and hear anything that was within the confines of the Central Realm.

Within the Cosmic Sea, there existed the prime universe, known as the Central Realm or Prime Realm. This was the original and largest universe, with its own unique laws of physics and constants.

Eunaria smirked, her tone laden with condescension.

"Of all the demons and monsters in this world, Curse Kings are the most repulsive. But no matter. Soon enough, you\'ll understand why dragons are the only majestic creatures who could claim the skies."

With a swift motion, Eunaria extended her hand forward, radiating an aura of power.

In that moment, she decided there was no need for pretense anymore.

She would go straight to the point and unleash her apex skill—

『Sea King Poseidon』.

As her hand reached out, the entire ocean beneath them rumbled violently.

Lumiere gripped his staff tightly, his eyes reflecting both awe and trepidation.

"What\'s happening?" he muttered to himself.

Then, before Lumiere could react, the water of the ocean surged upwards with incredible force.

"What the fu—"

Lumiere hurriedly called upon his [Magic Barrier], conjuring a protective shield to shield himself from the crushing water pressure.

As the mass of water soared past him, cracks spiderwebbed across the walls of his barrier, the immense pressure threatening to shatter it.

Lumiere\'s eyes widened with realization as he looked down, only to find an empty abyss where the ocean had once been.

There was not a single drop of water there.

"Then that means.."

His gaze snapped upward, and a gasp escaped his lips.

Suspended above them was the entire liquid mass of the ocean, defying gravity in a display of raw power.

Lumiere\'s voice held dread as he uttered just two words, "Oh no."

Eunaria\'s laughter filled the air as she basked in the brilliance of her skill.

The flipped ocean hovered menacingly above them.

Lumiere, attempting to belittle Eunaria, shrugged, "Oh, you think flipping the entire ocean is such a grand accomplishment? Please, I\'ve seen better tricks."

"( If her Apex Skill can do that, how much more can it do... I\'m pretty sure she\'s just showing me the basics. This could be bad. )" (Lumiere)

Eunaria\'s eyes narrowed as she smiled.

"Actions speak louder than words," she calmly retorted.

With a deliberate movement, she closed her hands, slowly curling them into a tight fist.

The massive body of water condensed and compressed, shrinking in size until it formed a single, minuscule droplet suspended in the air.

The once mighty ocean reduced to a mere speck, yet the energy it emanated was palpable.

Gently, Eunaria brought the droplet towards her, duplicating the process until hundreds of thousands of compressed droplets orbited around her, their presence creating a mesmerizing spectacle.

Each droplet, the ocean\'s mass multiplied.

"Prepare yourself, Human," she warned, her voice dripping with confidence. "Witness the true might of my Apex Skill."

Without hesitation, she propelled one droplet towards Lumiere, hurtling through the air with incredible speed.

"( Crap, I there\'s no time to use [Siphon] )" (Lumiere)

Lumiere, instinctively grasping his staff, swiftly brought forth a 「Magic Barrier」 spell, conjuring a shield of shimmering energy to protect himself.

But what he couldn\'t foresee was the sheer force contained within that tiny droplet.

As the droplet made contact with Lumiere\'s barrier, it detonated in an explosively violent fashion.

The pressure unleashed was unimaginable, surpassing what the earth\'s surface had ever experienced by a staggering 500-fold.

The intensity was akin to the crushing depths of the hadal zone, multiplied several times over.

Lumiere\'s defensive shield shattered instantly, reduced to mere fragments.

Lumiere\'s eyes widened in terror as the impact reached him.

His body crumpled under the sheer force, bones breaking, and organs failing.

He collapsed to the ground, lifeless and broken.

A loud resounding laughter escaped Eunaria\'s lips.

"That was disappointingly easy," she remarked. "Seems like all your boasting amounted to nothing but empty words."

Eunaria took a deep breath, "Now, for the girl."

She was about to make her way towards the location.

Lumiere\'s voice echoed from below.

"Where do you think you\'re going?" he questioned.

Eunaria halted, her heart skipping a beat as she turned to face him, her eyes widening at the sight before her.

Lumiere stood tall, his body miraculously restored from its previous state of shambles. His movements seemed effortless as he casually wiped the trail of blood from his mouth. Pressing down on one nostril with his thumb, he expelled a stream of blood from the other.

[Accelerated Regeneration] was in play.

Naturally, this didn\'t come as a surprise to Eunaria.

The only thing that frustrated her was the fact that she\'d have to apply more effort to ensure he was incapable of being anymore of a nuisance.

"It\'s like you\'re begging to get hurt again," Eunaria warned.

Lumiere responded with a sly smile, his wings unfurling behind him as he effortlessly lifted himself into the air.

His confidence was palpable as he assured her, "Oh don\'t worry about me, I won\'t let that happen again."

With a sudden flash of golden light, Lumiere\'s magic staff vanished from his hand.

Eunaria conjured two droplets of compressed ocean mass and sent them hurtling towards Lumiere. But before her attack could make contact, Lumiere extended his hand, invoking the power 『Voracious Queen Adephagia』.

"( That\'s right, his status revealed he has three Apex Skills... who has that much... its like he\'s not even scared of getting his soul destroyed. Not that I care or anything like that... )" (Eunaria)

Her eyes narrowed.

A tempest of primordial black mass erupted from his hand, swirling and coalescing into a massive vacuum.

The droplets exploded upon contact, unleashing a torrent of ocean water.

Lumiere absorbed the deluge effortlessly, but to his surprise, the water failed to dissipate.

"Why isn\'t it letting up—!"

Instead, it continued to swell in size, defying all logic by growing even larger than the combined mass of two oceans.

Lumiere was momentarily taken aback but managed to maintain his composure, panting slightly in the aftermath.

The blue haired Imperial Dragon smiled.

"Seems like you\'re the one looking a bit exhausted now," she quipped.

"That thing you did now, it didn\'t feel like... magic..."

Eunaria folded her hands and nodded. "That\'s because it wasn\'t."

With narrowed eyes, Lumiere\'s gaze intensified.

"That was something called Jinzui.."

"Jinzui.." Lumiere raised an eyebrow.

"Oh I forgot, most of the bipeds that live in this world are centered around magic.."

Eunaria exuded her ever prideful grin.

"Magic isn\'t the only form of power in this world."
