Undying Warlord

Dilan was halfway up the mountainside when a terrific roar reverberated in a range of several hundred kilometers.

The loud and booming noise made the mountain he was climbing on tremble violently and soon his body started to shake tremendously as well.

He could clearly hear his heartbeat ringing in his ears and feel the adrenaline that shot through his body as the tremors around him intensified.

Stones and lava were flung around but Dilan ignored this. He was mostly focused on the events occurring in front of him and he didn't miss out on noticing the situation he had been eagerly waiting for.

A several-meter-long head of a red-scaled Dragon emerged from the top of the mountainside and a pair of several hundred-meter-long leather wings spread out, releasing a terrifying heat that was strong enough to blast away the air currents around Dilan.

He felt the searing heat splashing in his face that made his hair curl, but he didn't mind it at all. He stared at the crimson reptilian eyes that were fully focused on him and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Adrenaline pumped through his veins, excitement spread through him and the desire to fight the Red Dragon ignited deep inside him.

All of a sudden, the Red Dragon's eyes changed color, turning into miniature suns when it opened its mouth to release a Dragon flame that could melt everything in its wake.

Dilan felt the heat before anything else and he didn't hesitate to use [Short distance traveling] to protect himself from the terrifying flames that could melt the stones all around the Dragon flame.

His sky-blue eyes started to gleam and his excitement skyrocketed at the sight of the Dragon flame that was much stronger than the power the Blazing Spinosaurus had been able to exhibit.

'Power Appraisal says that this dude has the power of a Peak Tier-4 existence while actually being a Mid-Tier-4 existence…seems like the Divinity Fragment of the Sun Temple increased the Dragon's power even more than its racial traits did!' Dilan figured, feeling interested in the increase of strength the Red Dragon had attained after devouring the miniature sun divinity fragment.

"Fight me, you fat-ass Lizard!" Dilan screamed at the top of his lungs while retrieving all Essence crystals from his storage ring. Over a million Essence crystals seemingly emerged out of nowhere and Dilan accessed all of them at once.

He led the strands of Essence toward the Orb of Mantras and activated the Cursed Mantra [Laguna de Leviera]. Dilan didn't know much about the Cursed Mantra but what he knew was enough for him to be confident that he could defeat the Red Dragon using it.

"Your stats might be high and your strength even higher, but why would I be worried about something as insignificant as that?" He shouted while a dark hue was released from the Orb of Mantras in an explosive manner. It spread out rapidly and tried to shroud the living beings in its surroundings.

However, as there were no other living beings in the vicinity except Dilan and the Red Dragon, the dark hue could only spread out to the Red Dragon, focusing it as the only entity.

Dilan was spared as he was the wielder of the Orb of Mantras and the whole potency of the Cursed Mantra [Laguna of Leviera] affected the Red Dragon.

What ought to be a Curse to decrease the stats of tens of thousand of beings at the fourth Tier and below ended up only concentrating its effects on a single being, a lot more than it was supposed to.

The amplified power of the Cursed Mantra showed its effect only a moment after Dilan had unleashed it. He was ready to rumble and activated [Demon Summoning] using 200 units of Mana, followed by using an additional 200 Units of Mana to accelerate the circulation speed of the Essence strands.

Using [Bearer of Pain], Dilan replenished the vast majority of his Mana by using his Life force. This increased his stats by 50% because his Life force ended up with just a tiny trace of what it had been before.

If Dilan's Life force was usually a house-sized flame, it was currently only the size of a car. But that was not worrisome as the size and volume were exactly what Dilan had required to make sure that his stats would be amplified by 50% through [Bracing Pain].

Afterward, Dilan used [Switch] by reallocating some of his Mana and Stamina to increase his Agility, but that was not where Dilan's enhancements ended.

He activated [Walk of Thunder] with mere two Units of Mana, [Second Acceleration] using some mana, [Master of Gravity], [Mantle of Elements] to empower his weapons with the might of an Intermediate Wind Spirit, [Power Up], [Burst Regeneration], [Undying], [Taunt] and last but not least [Holy Light].

Dilan was prepared to use more means to increase his stats and to power up but he could already feel that his body was on the verge of bursting apart into fragments.

Being at the Peak of the second Tier with the physique of an unparalleled Warrior, an occupation that increased his physique, a powerful Constitution, and an Armor Set that increased his physique, Dilan's Agility ended up crossing 1500 Units.

This was not something he could endure longer than a few minutes, and even that was already a rather generous prediction.

But Dilan was ready to leave no stone unturned. He had activated the vast majority of abilities that could be of any use and he dashed forward after he attached the Orb of Mantras to his belt.

He unsheathed the Cursed Dagger and ended up disappearing from his spot, just to appear closer to the Red Dragon that was breathing powerful dragon flames in an attempt to disintegrate the dark hue that affected the Dragon's combat prowess and stats.

The Red Dragon's combat prowess was drastically decreased, which Dilan could see very clearly by using [Power Appraisal].

Making use of this, Dilan slashed out at the snout of the Dragon, piercing both the Cursed Dagger and the Blessed Blade deep inside its flesh.

The Red Dragon roared out and it shrouded its entire head with blazing flames but Dilan simply ignored this by twisting the blades in the Dragon's snout before pulling them out as he shot forward again.

'So that's the restricted power of a Mythical existence…a legendary monster that is considered to be an overlord of the sky…seems feasible for me to take care of!' Dilan thought and it was not long after that he had inflicted more than a hundred deep gashes and cuts upon the three-hundred-meter-long body of the Red Dragon.

"How about this? Become my aide and together we will reign supreme on Milarn!" Dilan roared so as to ensure that his words would reach the monster's ears, and the reaction of the Red Dragon was intense.

The Red Dragon roared out in anger, it shook its entire body and searing hot flames shot out from in between the gaps of the red scales.

The whole Dragon turned into a blazing flame, only to be covered by the dark hue that kept infiltrating the Red Dragon's body every now and then.

Dilan was severely affected by the blazing flames and his skin began to sizzle due to the scorching heat, but he kept ignoring it.

He could use [Undying] in its strongest form repeatedly to ensure his continued survival and it was not as if his Health stat was low, to begin with, either.

"I might be a Maniac, but I will make you bow to me!!"
