*Boom**Boom*

Around a secluded mountain range, far away from any signs of human settlement, various explosive and fighting sounds roared as the devastation spread everywhere.

In this chaotic scenery, filled with blood and gore, with broken trees and destroyed mountains. Two opposite side fought against each other. On one side was a group of 10 odd men wearing a dark red colored robe, releasing a suffocating bloodlust from their bodies, they appeared to be a dangerous bunch with ample experience while on the other hand, the opposition looked like a band of glorious fighters with shining armor with around 20 men in their side.

The bloodied corpses and pulverized carcass indicated that around a dozen of men has already perished in this scuffle, with 70% bodies belonging to the majority group.

The smaller group was definitely better fighters but they were utterly outnumbered. Although they have suffered way less casualties, the signs of fatigue and wear began to show on their face.

They were definitely a bit worried but after once again looking at the brave and confidence inducing back figure of their leader who fought in the front line, a sense of pride and determination flashed through their eyes.

Their leader appearance was like a shining black scale covered lofty figure with amber eyes. His fists were clenched with menacing dark bones protruding out between his knuckles, with a horrifying venom dripping from its tip, His whole body was covered in blood but not a single drop was his own. He has single handedly killed almost half of the opposition people killed so far, and his mere existence brought confidence to his allies and dread to his enemies.

"Let's attack together they are tired and weak, we can get rid of them. " One of the men from the opposition wearing shining armor with golden hair shouted. From the confrontation so far, they could see that he was the leader of the group.

"Hahh!! " The people around him released a war cry and dashed before the enemies without caring for the casualties.

The two sides collided again, and the scene soon became a bloodbath. People were dying left and right with every passing moment. After a moment, One of the man wearing the dark red colored robe walked towards his Black Scaled leader and said solemnly, "Vice-Commander, you should retreat. The operation was a failure from our front. We should have trust in Lord Commander's strength and pray for his victory but you need to go out of here immediately. We will give you cover and 2 men will lead you out. "

His leader listened to his rambling while he ripped another one of his opponents apart again, He looked at the guy who spoke and his cold amber eyes looked as if they could freeze his soul. The Dark red robed guy shuddered and felt a hopeless fear sprouting from his soul.

"Shut up! " The Leader spoke and continued his fighting, although he looked like he was fighting with great concentration but his attention was elsewhere. He was actually using some means to monitor a battle taking place a bit away from them. Two men in the sky clashed against each other again and again. It has been around 5 minutes since the fight started and from the start their momentum was increasing at an incredible pace, currently their fighting prowess even caused him to raise an eyebrow.

Suddenly a scary hoarse voice sounded in his head which spoke in a commanding and determined tone, " Leylin retreat now, This is an order. This bastard was prepared and he also set up a trap to lure us in. Our plan was leaked but don't worry I didn't come unprepared myself. I will take him down even if it means I would have to die. You should retreat for now, I don't think I can protect you and things aren't looking too optimistic either. You are the future of my order, do you understand!? Retreat now! "

The scaled man who is none other than Leylin listened to him and understood that the end is near and both of them are going to use their trump card and clash with their final attack. The moment he was waiting for has finally arrived.

Leylin after resting for a week in the inn left as he joined up with his messenger, Tucker who lead him to the meeting point. There he met up with the Death Commander, Damien Blood and the rest of the team. Leylin was given full reins over the Church Elites as his task was to lead them and get rid of Rakim's escorts and guards. They set up the ambush but unexpectedly after the initiation of their attack, they realised that they were lured into a trap.

Instead of a dozen or so guards there were around thirty of them, all were the elites of the Dynasty. Damien understood immediately, that their plans were definitely leaked, as Rakim was also already prepared for any assault which lead to an unsuccessful sneak attack attempt, Hence this bloody battle began.

Leylin used his Innate Rank 1 Spell and assumed his Kemoyin scales form, with a modified fighting mode and began fighting with the mob. He doesn't actually use spell since it may raise some eyebrows and who knows if the church or the Dynasty can link it to something else, so to be in the safe side Leylin created this fighting mode, where he manipulated his bones to extend them out of the adjacent space between the knuckles, then he proceeds to use his Rank 2 Spell Toxic Bile on them making it more deadly.

With Leylin's physical ability it's child play to get rid of his enemies. He purposely didn't attacked too aggressively and looked for an opportunity.

Leylin stalked the fight between the two high ranked officials collecting data about them and simultaneously fought in the confrontation against the Dynasty people putting up a front.

*Boom*

Suddenly Damien Blood who spoke to Leylin was smashed to the ground and his opponent stood above in the air with a savage expression.

"*Tsk* You are distracted while fighting against me such a rookie move well It's doesn't matter. This is the end Damien, I am been looking for a chance to kill you for long long time! " Rakim spoke with venom in his voice and unbridled bloodlust leaked out of his eyes. From their actions, conversation and expression so far Leylin figured that they must have some personal vendetta against each other.

"You can dream! " Damien shot out of the huge crater, his fall created and punched Rakim throwing him away. Damien's aura increased at a phenomenal rate and his body was glowing right now as a crayon bracelet shone on his left hand enveloping him.

"The Grim Sky Verdict! You actually brought it with you? " A surprised voice came from Rakim who stopped his momentum midair after being punched, a silver light also shone from his body as he equipped a pair of gloves on his hands. His stunning silver hair in addition to the silver glow showcased a unparallel prestige and suffocating undulation reeked from his body.

"Wildcat Claw! I see you have also brought the big guns huh. It's good then, Let's see what you have got." Damien looked at his gloves with a bit of wariness and exclaimed.

Leylin was surprised as he saw this, They are both using some sort of Magical Artifacts but to think it can aide them even at their level and raise their strength by this much so, it must be a pretty amazing item.

Their strength has taken quite a hike and currently they could even rival a initial General Stage(Hydro Rank 3) Although Leylin could clearly see that Rakim had a bit of advantage over Damien, even though it was just a bit and things could end both ways.

"It's good this way, Now I get two cool artifacts too. " Leylin thought in his head as he subtly created some distance between the battlefield and himself. Damien took notice of this and was pleased that Leylin was retreating. He could now focus on his opponent without any concern, His fight became more intense as both of them has stooped being rational and are now fighting with their full strength. Each of their clash shook the earth and the aftermath was devastating, all of the Church and Dynasty crowd had to stop their fighting and retreat due to this. Wishing that this will end as soon as possible and praying for their respective leaders victory since whoever lose will definitely face extermination.

Unknown to them, a even bigger disaster was coming their way!
