2 Master Emong Vs Skeletal Dragon

"Hey, Dominic.... Wake up!"

"Yes, Master!" After hearing his master's call, Dominic rushed towards the living area where his master is waiting.

"I prepared your breakfast, go eat now." Master Emong is currently sitting on a rocking chair, rocking his body while his eyes closed.

Dominic rushed to the table and eats his breakfast. After this, he then rushed to the mountain with his battle sword and some extra shirts.

He is now on the area he cleared yesterday. The lifeless trees lied down on the ground, and the falling leaves lying on the ground.

He then sat in a lotus position above a huge rock with a flattened top and enter the meditation state.

After clearing everything in his consciousness and executing the proper breathing technique that his master taught him, he felt Fantasia flowing through his body. Fantasia particles flowing in the air, as he inhaled, he absorbed a large number of Fantasias, and Fantasia also entered his body through his skin pores.

After a while, his body feels refreshed but at the same time, he also felt tired. While cultivating, he is also expanding his mental energy to maintain his current state of mind.

After 2 hours of Cultivating, Dom stopped and exit meditation state. As he opens his eyes, nothing changes in the scenery. The place are still filled with fallen logs and leaves.

"Time to hunt some foods" after resting for a while, he then starts to wander around the Mountain range of Limonsito. As he wanders around the Mountains, he goes deeper into some dangerous regions.

"Naaaaah... where did those Wild boars go into?" He is looking for some wild boars for almost two hours. He continued his search for about 30 minutes but he still found nothing and he decided to go home and take a rest. He is now walking heading back to the house when a Large Creature made of bones appeared in his path.

This creature released dangerous vibes as he locks his eyes on Dominic. He felt shivers run down through his spine, and cold sweat dripped down to his face from his forehead. He can't move, he felt terrified, the scene alone made his body unmovable, akin to a statue.

The Bony Creature released a loud roar "ROOOOAAAR"

....

"ROOOOAAAR"

"Huh? What was that?" Master Emong awakened from his nap by the loud deep roar. The Roar was too loud, that it reverberated throughout the whole mountain range. The birds were startled and chirped so loudly, small beast running around in fear, some are hiding in their caves and underground and this scene alone made Emong feel Danger is coming.

Then, he remembered his disciple, Dominic, and run into his newly made training ground, out of fallen trees. He looks everywhere to find him, but there is no Dominic there.

He remembered the time, it is past 1 pm and Dominic must be hungry and left the training grounds to find some food.

"D*mn!!" He then rushed to the place where the load roar came.

....

Dom's body was trembling in fear as the Dragon released its fear-inducing roar. His knee grew weaker and then his body collapsed and fell into the ground. Just the image of the Skeletal Dragon sent shivers into his body.

Dom was just a few Dozens of meters away from the Skeletal Dragon.

Then he heard a shout just a distance away from him. "DOM, STAY AWAY FROM THE SKELETAL DRAGON!" after Dom heard this, he tried to look where the voice came from and it was his Master Emong coming to his aid.

[Skeletal Dragon?] After repeating it on his mind, he remembered that the bony creature in front of him is the Skeletal Dragon.

The Skeletal Dragon was a corpse of a dragon who died ages ago. The prowess of the Skeletal dragon was just 10% of its power when it was still alive. It is as large as a 2 story building and has a length of 60 meters. The monster's level is at grandmaster level, par with Master Emong. But, Master Emong suffered great damage in his soul making him weaker than the Skeletal Dragon.

Master Emong is holding a sword, gold in color. Its length was about 80 cm.

Master Emong's body was immediately covered with lightning as he executed the skill Thunder. When Dominic saw what his master has done, his face was distorted out of shock.

"MASTER! YOU CAN'T USE YOUR FANTASIA OR YOU'LL DIE!" he shouted as hard he can but his master just shouted back at him and said, "RUN!".

Dom was still hesitating if he will run or help his master. But after realizing that he will join the fight, he will just drag his master down. So after he looked at his master once more, he executed thunder and dashed out of the battlefield.

The monster followed Dom with his gaze. He was about to pursue Dominic but Master Emong blocked its path.

"HEY MONSTER! YOUR ENEMY IS HERE!"

The Skeletal Dragon turned his head, locking his eyes into an old skinny man. He was infuriated by what this old pesky weakling is doing. He targeted Dom because of his vigorous life and overflowing Fantasia. In his sight, Dominic was a roasted chicken running around.

The Golden sword Master Emong is holding is glowing, it was channeling External Fantasia. Instead of extracting Fantasia from his body into his sword, he is borrowing Fantasia from nature and channels it directly to his sword. This is the method Master Emong invented after his soul has been severely damaged and unable to store a large amount of Fantasia.

"WIND BLAAAADE!" Master Emong slashed his sword into the air and released a Wind Blade.

The wind blade traveled so fast that if it'll compare to Dom's wind blade, it was just like comparing a bicycle and a motorcycle.

Dom was spectating the battle not too far away from them. Then the wind blade managed to hit the Skeletal Dragon's head.

BLAAG

A loud sound of something dropped to the ground rang into Dom's ear, and it was the head of the Skeletal Dragon.

[The head of the Skeletal Dragon! As easy as that, Master Emong killed it.]

After he saw the head of the Skeletal Dragon on the ground, he immediately rushed to his master's side but the whip-like tail of the Skeletal Dragon was fast approaching him and it managed to hit him.

Dom flew 300 meters away from the scene, wounds from the spikes appeared in his body. He cried out of pain as he lifelessly lying on the ground. He still managed to hold his consciousness and after a while, he managed to crawl to a near tree and lean on it. Then he channeled his fantasia through his body, trying to recuperate from the wound he received.

Master's Emong eyes grow wide in shock. His beloved disciple who he trained and loved was about to be killed by some random undead creature made his heart pained.

"DOMINIC! JUST STAY AWAY FROM HERE, SAVE YOURSELF "

Dominic looked at his master with teary eyes. His heart wanted to stay but his instinct was telling him to escape from the danger in front of him.

Dom stood up and then started to run but not as fast as he did before. Even though most of his injuries were alleviated, only the external was mostly cured but his internal wounds were still open, resulting in his speed greatly reduced.

When the Skeletal Dragon saw Dominic running slowly away from him, he started his pursuit.

"Hey Stack-up Bones, your enemy is here!" then Master Emong blocked his path, preventing him from catching Dominic.

"Forbidden skill Activate Life for Power"

Suddenly, Emong's body glow in white light, but it was just a dim light.

The forbidden skill he activates allows him to convert his life force to explosive power, granting him the power to fight the Skeletal Dragon head-on.

Master Emong's target is the core of the Skeletal Dragon located in the center of its chest. He tried to get near to it but the Skeletal Dragon won't allow him to do what he wanted to.

The fight continued for more than an hour. Master Emong's was currently drenched on his own blood. His appearance was akin to a blood demon.

But after a long fight, only Master Emong has sustained damage. the skeletal dragon was super-infuriated by this time. His snack has escaped because of this old man hindering his path.

Even before the fight started, Master Emong knew that was not a match to the Skeletal Dragon. He only fought it in order to buy time for Dominic to escape.

Emong stands there motionlessly. The Skeletal Dragon stared confusedly at Master Emong. [Why did this old skinny man stop moving?]

The Skeletal Dragon couldn't hold his anger anymore and he sent his spiky tail towards the motionless old man. Master Emong flew backward around five hundred meters away. The trees fell down as his body crashed into them.

When the Skeletal Dragon saw that Master Emong motionlessly lying on the ground while his body covered with blood, he assumed that he already died.

As for Dom, he deduced that he already so far away from him so he neglected the idea of pursuing him. So he turned back and after letting a loud deep roar, he headed deeper in the mountain, back to its lair.

Master Emong was still alive but he can't live for too long. He slowly crawled towards a nearby log that fell down because of his body crashing on it.

He wrote a sentence on it using his own blood. And after writing his last will, he smiled and slowly closing his eyes. "Please go on. Please live for my sake." Then he breathed his last.

....

ROAAAAR!

"That was the roar of the Skeletal Dragon! MASTER!" Dom was just a kilometer away from them. As he waited there for the battle to end, he heard a loud explosion from the battlefield.

After hearing the loud roar, he immediately rushed to where the battle occurred with his skill thunder activated.

He scanned the surroundings and what he saw was utter destruction. Trees fell down after severed, deep depression from the fight also appeared on the battlefield, and he saw his master covered in blood while lying motionlessly on the ground.

After he saw his master, shivers run down to his spine. He immediately rushed towards him. What he did first is to check if he is still breathing. His eyes widened in fear after realizing that his master is not breathing anymore. He then checked his vitals but alas, he is already dead.

Dom cried loudly, he didn't even care anymore that the Skeletal Dragon would hear his wail. Tears dripped down to his face for a while and then he saw a log nearby with characters drawn by blood on it. He checked it and he continued to cry after reading it.

"My disciple, read the letter I left under my bed and take this sword."
