Chapter 1640 1640. A Dragon’s Wrath
Broidrireg didn't doubt Arlcard's words. He knew the dark portal spell. It was a spell that provided instant movement with a range long enough to flee this insanely large fireball. One even the max-leveled Teleportation spell could not. But this spell needed its exit point prepared beforehand, which Arlcard had already prepared.
"We only have a short time," Arlcard said. "Please immediately enter after me."
Broidrireg nodded.
Arlcard stepped into the dark portal. Once he was gone, Broidrireg had one finger touch the portal. The portal was too small for his gigantic body. But after getting in contact with Broidrireg's finger, the portal abruptly expanded. At the same time, a shadow spread all over Broidrireg's body, starting from the finger that touched the dark portal.
Suzaki was observing from outside. She was about to leave the fireball and went to deal with the mobile fortress. That was how confident she was with her fire domination. She was sure that the fireball would complete its job, but then she sensed some irregularity within the fireball.
The fireball had always applied pressure into its center non-stop. That was where its target was. At this time, she sensed all the pressure resisting her fireball was suddenly gone.
'Have the old dragon finally given up?' She thought. But even so, there should still be a gradual decrease in the resistance. What she felt was as if the target had completely evaporated. This would be the case if what was trapped inside the fireball was a weak being, but this was Broidrireg, the past lord of dragons. Even if he didn't put up any fight, his body alone should be able to resist the flames for some time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe saw her fireball getting smaller. It was in its final phase, burning everything within it to ash. While she was still wondering about the peculiar sensation she felt from her fireball, she saw something in the distance. Something that turned her eyes wide.
A black silhouette popped up above the capital. Suzaki was very familiar with the silhouette even if it was completely black. The blackness dispersed and showed Broidrireg. Broidrireg also looked back at Suzaki. The two stared at one another from great distances.
Suzaki's fireball continued to shrink. It couldn't burst into starlights and chase its target again. That only happened once. After that was triggered, the fireball would constantly shift to position its target at its center. If the target somehow moved out of its fiery body, it would lose track of that target.
"Thank you," Broidrireg said to Arlcard. There was an aggressive growl in his voice. "I will take care of that bird. Please don't interfere."
His long body shot forward at high speed.
"… I save you because I want to fight that bird together with you," Arlcard muttered.
Arlcard sensed the anger in Broidrireg's tone. That dragon's beef with the firebird was more personal than a conflict between two country guardians. Hence, Arlcard decided to honor Broidrireg's request. He looked at the other eternal-grade opponent, Eurdrasill. Tiemezzys didn't seem like he needed help, but Arlcard needed an opponent strong enough to test his power. He flew toward the two tussling dragons.

"Suzaakiiii…!!!" Broidrireg roared. His voice reverberated to a great distance. The fighting armies were stunned by the roar. Some even fell to the ground out of shock.
lightsnοvεl "Hmph… What a waste of fire essence," Suzaki bemoaned.
Broidrireg flew out of the capital. By then, the fireball that trapped him not long ago had dissolved into embers.
"This will be the last time you harm a true dragon…!! I'll make sure of it!" Broidrireg roared. His divine water-wind breath shot out of his mouth, followed by the forming of two spell formations.
Suzaki gracefully flew sideways to dodge the breath. As she did, she noticed that Broidrireg had finished his casting. A large waterfall appeared in the sky. She recognized the spell.
"This… the sky tsunami?"
Before the water came after her, the air around her became turbulent.
"Damned old one. You are using the same maneuver," Suzaki said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had been hit by the same two spells the last time she faced Broidrireg. She couldn't escape then, she couldn't escape now. Both the Primal Storm and the Sky Tsunami ravaged Suzaki and kept her from moving away.
Broidrireg followed up with the same combo as the last time. He cast his mega spell, Wrath of the Elder Dragons, while Suzaki was helpless. The seven-rune mega spell was completed and five giant golden dragons were conjured.
"The last time, you were saved by Fear's primordial hydra. No one will save you now!" Broidrireg exclaimed. The five golden dragons rushed toward Suzaki who was still getting tossed around by the primal storm and sky tsunami.
"I know I'm not your opponent, old one, but all you will achieve is just deliver me to my next rebirth cycle," Suzaki said.
Her body flared with an intense blaze as the five dragons approached. The blaze expanded until it became a miniature sun. This was Suzaki's Giga Flame Burst.
The powerful flames burned everything. The massive water from the sky tsunami was vaporized. The primal storm's destructive energy was forcefully ended out of the sheer force of the flame burst. Even the five golden dragons had to stop their advance.
The intense flames suddenly shrunk to a tiny dot before Suzaki's beak. It was then fired in Broidrireg's direction.
Suzaki expected Broidrireg to use the five golden dragons to block her attack like the last time, but the five golden dragons ignored the little flare flying past them. They resumed their advance toward Suzaki.
The glowing flare shot forward. Broidrireg didn't dodge the flare. He could sense Suzaki's mana retained control over this flare. She could change its direction if she wanted. It was pointless trying to dodge. He cast another defensive spell. A shield appeared before him. A shield that had water and wind mixed inside it.
The flare crashed into the shield. The shield only managed to stop the flare for a fraction of a second. It punctured through the shield and hit Broidrireg's shoulder. Broidrireg roared in pain as the flare burst into a flame that cut through his elongated body and left a burning scar. He lost a large chunk of life from that hit.
Even then, Broidrireg continued charging forward.
