Chap 16:- Battle Dance

Grandpa Hyun closed his eyes and focused all his aura.

Soon his body exploded with a versatile orange and red aura. The flames resembled that of the Red Dragon.

"Fire Battle Dance!!!" Grandpa Hyun opened his eyes, and the aura exploded the very moment he opened his eyes.

"Wow... What the heck is that..." Zeno was amazed again and again during this showdown.

"They are performing a sacred dance, it is used in battles and it is the strongest weapon humans can get." The huge snake replied with its eyes still stuck on the battle.

"I see..." Zeno was amazed at seeing their auras explode creating violent shock waves.

"Each continent has their own sacred Battle Dance, and these dances are harder than they look, a wrong move and you will kill yourself due to the sudden outburst in your aura. The moves have to be in sync sending a perfect amount of aura in your body." Snake explained more about the battle dance.

"Wow... Can one learn more than one?" Zeno asked in excitement.

"It's not easy kid... Most of you can't even learn one of the dances, but there are a few who can, and they are greatly respected on all ten continents. And master Robert is one of them." Snake replied again and turned his gaze back to the battlefield, where both Master Robert and Grandpa Hyun were blasting off a massive amount of aura.

"So... You gonna take the first move?" Master Robert asked grandpa Hyun with an impatient look.

"After you." Grandpa Hyun was still keeping his cool.

"Ok then!" Master Robert lifts his right leg and takes a spin on his left one.

*Boom*

A strong wave of brown aura rushed toward grandpa Hyun.

"No, you don't!" Grandpa Hyun concentrated all of his aura on his right palm and pushed the air, turning it into a hot wave of aura.

*Boom*

Both the auras collided creating a massive cloud of smoke.

Master Robert rushed inside, and Grandpa Hyun followed him. Zeno and the other beasts that sat outside were able to see their auras shining, but the rest of their bodies were not visible with naked eyes.

Master Robert lifts his right leg again and spins on his left one, but this time grandpa Hyun blocked it with his legs.

"Woah! So you wanna battle in the smoke?" Master Robert was surprised to see Grandpa Hyun block his attack.

"Yes, I want to." Grandpa Hyun slammed his right palm on master Robert's chest.

*Boom*

The orange aura grew stronger whereas the brown one started to fade away. "Yes! Grandpa, you can do it!" Zeno cheered for his grandpa.

"Not too quick!" Master Robert swung his right hitting grandpa Hyun in his neck.

"Ahh!" The intense pain of the aura made grandpa Hyun flinch.

"Rock Battle Dance, Rock strength!!" Master Robert concentrated all his aura on his right fist and smashed grandpa Hyuns face from above!

*Booooom*

The smoke slowly started to clear out, and the only person visible was Master Robert.

"W... Where is grandpa!!!" Zeno rushed to the pond with a shocked expression.

"Down there." Master Robert pointed towards the bottom of the pond, where a small figure was visible, it slowly started moving above and reached the surface.

"Grandpa!!" Zeno pulled him out and brought him back to dry land.

"Cough cough..."

"Grandpa you alright???" Zeno was scared at that moment to lose his grandpa.

"Yes... I'm... I'm fine... It's just... I'm too exhausted..." Grandpa Hyun was still struggling to breathe due to the punch on his face.

"Master... You won again..." Grandpa Hyun said in a happy tone, as if he was not at all disappointed to lose to his master. But soon his aura flow stopped he fell flat hitting his face on the ground.

"Grandpa!!!" Zeno pulled him closer to himself.

"He's fine, I blocked his aura so the side effects of using Battle Dance won't worsen his situation." Master Robert patted Zeno and walked in to have a look at Alisha.

"Take him and stay by his side, he will wake up soon." Master Robert said from behind.

Zeno carried his grandpa in his arms, and the rest of the beasts also went back.

After an hour grandpa Hyun finally opened his eyes.

"Grandpa! You ok?" Zeno was sitting just beside him in case anything happens to grandpa.

"I'm alright... Just my head is spinning..." Grandpa Hyun rubbed his eyes and sat on the bed.

"Where is the master?"

"He is with Alisha, twin dragons returned when you were asleep, so he is conducting his treatments," Zeno replied with a tired tone.

"I see..." Grandpa Hyun released a sigh and closed his eyes to relax.

"Grandpa... What happened in your battle? You were going to win..." Zeno asked with a curious look.

"Hoho, no no he was winning from the start," Grandpa replied laughed out to lighten up the atmosphere.

"What..." Zeno saw him with a confused look on his face.

"He was holding back from the start, and even at the end... He missed all the vital spots, he just smacked my face to stop my aura flow."

Grandpa took a breath and continued.

"His aura is more versatile than mine... And he has twin abilities too..." Grandpa Hyun sighed and saw Zeno.

"About his abilities... You said his ability helps him live longer, but he told me he consumes herbs..." Zeno wondered as he saw at his grandpa with a confused gaze.

"Ah, he can live longer due to his ability, but he consumes herbs to conserve his looks." Grandpa Hyun explained his master's appearance and age secret.

"Oh... I get it, so what is his second ability?" Zeno asked with curiosity.

"His second ability is Cursed Eyes." Grandpa Hyun replied with a serious tone.

"What is that? Never heard of it." Zeno wondered what Cursed Eyes were.

"Master Robert was the ruler of the Molten Lava continent and a member of the Shane family, that's why he has Inferno. During the first generation of evolved humans, their family got cursed by the Grand Beast who was the actual reason for our evolution. The cursed eye gets activated if the user gets hyped. When that ability is active users' eyes would turn pitch dark, and their aura levels will skyrocket increasing their physical and spiritual strength."

"Wow... So what if he uses Battle Dance with his Cursed Eyes?" Zeno asked with curiosity imagining what type of power will it generate.

"It's an extreme weapon, its power matches that of the Grand Beast." Grandpa Hyun remembered the time when his master used both of them together and the destruction it caused.
