Chapter 335 - Lycans of Ancient Times (2) (2/2)

”O-Of course not, your majesty.” Alex was taken aback from my words. ”You are the strongest I have ever known in my life.”

”That is good to hear.” I said and faced the black lycan. ”Then watch me win this fight.”

I walked forward, just a few feet away from the lycan alpha. He might tower over me, but I will not lose this fight. My men's life are at stake, and also the key fragment that I need to get to my wife Alicia.

”I am ready lycan alpha, Belgor.” I call out his name. I take my stance, holding my sword. My fire armor is still on me.

”Then let us start, Atlantian leader Regaleon.” Belgor said. *AWOOO*

His loud howl was heard into the night. He moved first, jumping from where he stood. His jump was pretty high that he literally vanished into the night.

'So he will start with attacking in stealth.' I thought.

Visibility is really hard in the woods at night, especially with a new moon. But I am at an advantage with my magic in the fire attribute.

”Fire balls.” I chanted.

I conjured fire balls the size of closed fists and let them illuminate my surroundings, I let them float around my vicinity. This helped me see the surroundings better. But Belgor was still in hiding. Wolves are good in hunting in stealth and I bet lycans are the same. I need to be very sensitive with my surroundings. All of my senses are on high alert.

*RUSTLE RUSTLE*

My ears caught slight rustling on the trees behind me. My senses tell me that I need to defend from behind. I turned around and followed my intuition, and it did not let me down.

Belgor jumped from behind the trees with his fangs bared. His claws fell first before me, but I used my sword to parry his attack. I was able to push him back and I took a step forward to launch an attack. My sword was able to graze his body, blood oozed out of his wound.

Belgor took a few steps back growling before me, his fur was standing on his back. He started to walk to one side, stalking me.  His eyes were glued to me, and mine to him.

I also moved opposite to his direction, making us walk in a kind of circle. I can feel his aura filled with blood l.u.s.t.

'He will be attacking soon. I need to make a move before that happens.' I thought.

I made the fire balls that were floating near him fly towards him in fast speed. Belgor was caught by surprise but he was able to jump away in time.

*BANG*

The fire balls made contact on the ground and exploded like bombs because of the speed. Belgor was suspended in the air from his jump and I did not waste time to let the other fire balls fly his way. He was able to twist his body in mid air, evading my fire balls one by one but I did not stop there.

Belgor landed on the ground once more, but I did not stop from letting my fire bombs fall on him. He ran fast and evaded every fire ball bomb I throw his way.

*BANG BANG BANG*

Bomb after bomb exploded on the ground, leaving smoke in their way. Belgor was swiftly running on the terrain while evading my attacks.

”He is good.” A smile crept on my face.

I was feeling elated and actually enjoying this fight. I have never thought I would feel this way in battle.
