DN : [220] Vali's Juggernaut Drive!
🕑 Added 2024-06-20 16:00:05 +0000 UTCLooking at Vali, who was close at hand, August's gaze remained calm.
Indeed, among the new generation, Vali could be considered outstanding, but in front of August, he fell a bit short.
In his Demonization, August resembled a true Demon, surrounded by the power of darkness that instinctively instilled fear in onlookers.
Despite his drastic personality change, the casual and lazy aura from the past was nowhere to be found. Instead, there was the dominance of a powerful being, accompanied by the arrogance befitting a Demon.
"Who are you exactly?"
"Demon, August."
"Hahaha, Demon, what an impressive."
Vali looked at August, who was less than ten meters away, with a slightly bitter smile.
Both being wielders of Longinus of the same level and belonging to the same category, Vali had entered the Balance Breaker, and August had used an unknown transformation. Although they seemed similar, August hadn't used the Balance Breaker yet.
August claimed not to have learned it, but Vali wouldn't believe a word of it. As the possessor of the Divine Dividing, he naturally had a say in this matter. As long as the user was powerful enough, restrictions were not a problem.
Crack~
Vali's movements shattered the already fragile White Dragon Emperor's armor.
All that was left was Vali, with a face full of unwillingness. This battle was not a balanced one at all. Even if he didn't want to admit it, August's strength was superior to his. That was a fact.
Not far away, Azazel lingered in the sky, watching Vali at this moment, sighing.
Vali was too impatient, and August was too mysterious. The Demon Clan, passed down from ancient times to the present, was indeed too mysterious.
And what's more, no one knows where the other demons are besides August. Did they become extinct because of the previous war? But what kind of monster could do that to the demon clan? It was still a mystery to him, and even to those who were curious about the origin of the demon race.
But after several encounters with August, he understood this truth even more.
There were too many mysteries surrounding August. They were so overwhelming that even he felt fear, especially regarding the incident with the Khaos Brigade. As the Governor of Fallen Angels, he, in the end, knew less than the investigation revealed.
Even the members of the other side, covert schemes, and even the Infinite Dragon God Ophis, he knew about them all.
All of this made him feel uneasy, and the reason was simple: the unknown. August knew everything about him, but he knew nothing about August. That was the difference.
"Why, admitting defeat already?"
August smiled and looked at Vali in front of him.
August knew that Vali had already started using Juggernaut Drive, even though he might not have fully mastered it yet.
"Admit defeat? How is that possible?"
Vali stood up, and the dormant magic power on his body began to surge again. Even faintly, a hint of madness emanated from him.
[Vali, do you really intend to use that move?]
"This is the last resort, isn't it? Albion."
[But that move will consume your lifespan. Even though you're a devil, your life is much longer than a human's, but do you really intend to do this?]
"Compared to life, I can't accept failure."
[Since you have realized that, then go ahead. Show the power of your White Dragon Emperor.]
"Of course, Albion."
At that moment, a surging magical power began to ignite, and August also noticed Vali's movements.
[Partner, the opponent is going all out.]
"Is it the Juggernaut Drive?"
[You guessed it?]
"Of course, after all, this is his last chance to turn the tables."
August stared at Vali in front of him, and flames began to burn in his eyes.
The ultimate form of a Sacred Gear, the Balance Breaker, is the manifestation of the wielder's thoughts and wishes. When there is a drastic reversal in the "flow" of this world, it can lead to the Balance Breaker.
This is already the pinnacle of Sacred Gears. However, there is a special kind of Sacred Gear with unique characteristics.
Inside some Sacred Gears that seal monsters, there is another special liberation state called 'Juggernaut Drive.' This kind of release is when the seal is forcibly temporarily lifted, and the power is released, known as "Juggernaut." It comes with high risks, the Sacred Gear absorbs the wielder's life force, possibly leading to a rampage that results in the host's death.
Both the Divine Dividing and the Boosted Gear seal the dragon souls of the former Heavenly Dragons. So these two sacred gears have and most have the qualifications to perform Juggernaut Drive that other Longinus may not even have.
[I, who is about to awaken...]
Vali began chanting slowly, and the raging magic and dragon aura began to boil.
[Am the White Dragon Emperor who will take the law down to the darkness...]
[I walk the road of domination with infinite destruction and by piercing through the imaginary dream...]
The power of the curse began to emanate. August keenly detected the aura of the curse.
This was the curse passed down through generations by the White Dragon Emperor. A formidable power that could attract misfortune and death. It was the curse of the Juggernaut Drive, a curse of power.
Almost half of the Red Dragon Emperor and the White Dragon Emperor would die under this power, overusing the Juggernaut Drive and exhausting their strength.
[I shall become a pure Emperor of White Dragon...]
[And I shall have you obey the silvery-white illusions and the perfect evil ways!]
[Juggernaut Over Drive!!!]
The cursed soul, the cursed power, and the cursed magic interwove at this moment, giving birth to an unimaginably terrifying power.
This is Satan-class level!
"Vali, are you so determined?"
Watching Vali using Juggernaut Drive, Azazel frowned.
In the current situation, even he was helpless. The Juggernaut Drive was not a joke. Vali now, even he didn't dare to say he could take him down.
Watching Vali, who had transformed into a silver dragon, Azazel's expression became solemn.
On the frontlines of the battlefield, August watched Vali entering the Juggernaut Drive form with excitement and joy on his face.
"So, this is the Juggernaut Drive? Vali, with such power, I acknowledge you. Let's fight."
August leaped directly and charged towards Vali.
*ROOOOOAR*
As Vali entered the Juggernaut Drive form, he let out a roar, and a deep blue dragon breath was directly spewed out, incinerating everything around.
[Seems like he's going berserk. His Juggernaut Drive hasn't been trained to perfection yet.]
Ddraig's voice sounded timely, expressing a hint of regret in his words.
For Vali to master the Juggernaut Drive at such a young age was undoubtedly exceptional. If not for today's events, given some time, he could definitely master the Juggernaut Drive.
