Winner Takes All

The Dragon Roar was shattering everyone's ear drums and it overwhelmed everything in its vicinity as Wolfgang crashed towards Jack who was rooted to the spot with his eyes closed. In the palace, time seemed to slow down.

At that moment, the king of the Hun, Cynthia and the female guard all looked like they had fish bones blocking their throats. Their expression was one of aghast. The air current covering Wolfgang whipped up a huge gust of wind in the palace. Nobody was doubting the power of Wolfgang's move which was called "Black Dragon" and even for Cynthia, the worries in her heart had boiled to its limits.

Greedy Wolf's attack.... Could Jack really fend him off?

The moment this thought appeared in her mind, something caught in Cynthia's field of vision. What she saw was a very fragile frame running towards Jack at this moment. "Amanda, come back!" Cynthia let out a cry as she was shell shocked. It was too late to stop her now.

Bang!

Jack who was focusing on entering that state felt like a bolt of lightning had struck him. He opened his eyes suddenly and saw multiple blades of air coming at him.

In his eyes, the air movement around Wolfgang's body resembled a dragon which was moving very rapidly towards him. The corner of his eyes caught the figure of Amanda who was running towards him, and she was almost within reach! With the angle Amanda was cutting in from a distance, the inevitable outcome was Wolfgang's attack crashing onto Amanda's body instead of his.

Everything happened in a split second, and it was out of everyone's expectation.

"Sir!" Amanda wailed.

"Amanda!" At the same time, Jack's eyes were bloodshot with anger and the veins on his neck was bulging.

At the last second, an animalistic roar tore through the palace and it sounded like the most aggressive and impacting sound ever! The Dragon Roar was even eclipsed by this sound. In an instant, Cynthia and the female could felt that their ears were hurting. They reflexively covered their ears with their hands.

Bang! It was a loud sound.

A huge outburst of energy turned into air currents which were visible to the eyes. It spread out in a circular motion from a center spot, and the huge wind blowing around everyone rendered everyone's eyesight useless. They all tilted their body to seek coverage from the impact. The white jade floor had cracks all over them.

Then, it was just silence.

The palace which was buffeted by endless noise a moment ago was shrouded in a dead silence.

"Greedy Wolf... Amanda..." As the remains of the wind receded, Cynthia frantically checked where Jack and Amanda was standing.

At the same time, the king of the Hun and the female guard too looked in the same direction. Although they just laid eyes on the scene for a moment, that scene itself would forever be imprinted in their retinas and their hearts. What they saw was two towering figures facing off against each other, and there was a smaller figure cowering behind one of the men.

At that moment, the sky had turned dark. Before Jack and the lot arrived, the king of the Hun had ordered someone to light up the lights in the palace. Generous lights poured onto the three standing figures and stretched their shadows into the distance.

Jack and Wolfgang maintained their posture after their clash just now. Wolfgang's physical build was naturally more formidable compared to Jack and it gave the sense of inferiority to Cynthia and the other onlookers. However, this disconcerting tandem seemed to freeze on the spot with none of them budging an inch! Jack's left hand was shielding Amanda who had joined the fray in a "Sir..." Amanda's face was drained of all colors after experiencing what could be called the eye of the storm. She was staring at Jack with horror in her eyes.

"This is..." On the throne, the king of the Hun was watching them with a strange glint in his eyes. He seemed like he was seeing a ghost as he revealed a terrified expression as he watched Jack. "Did it... appear?"

"He managed to go into that state!"

Almost simultaneously, Cynthia and the female guard both gasped in total surprise.

After they said that, Jack who was standing could be seen revealing an evil smile, the corner of his lips ascending.

With that smile, it seemed that the veins in his neck bulged and protruded vigorously as if they had come alive. Those veins climbed to his face and at the same time his eyes were bloodshot as if he had turned into a demon as he glared at Wolfgang.

A hoarse and barbaric heaving sound came from the deep reaches of Jack's throat.

Wolfgang's pupils had contracted rapidly. In his eyes, Jack's appearance transformation was like a huge sledgehammer that stomped his heart greatly.

In a flash, beyond Jack's antagonistic smile, he could see a sea of blood expanding infinitely behind him, and the waves of that sea were coursing and gushing with white bones floating and swaying with the

waves.

He was solitary, domineering and arrogant...

"What the hell is going on?" The king of the Hun was in a frenzy now. Wolfgang was not the only one getting this ominous feeling as everyone who watched Jack had the same sensation in their hearts. It was as if a sea of blood and corpses had filled the whole palace.

"I am the indomitable king, and nobody can oppose me!" Cynthia announced blatantly as she turned around like she was boasting or even teasing. She looked at the king of the Hun with one of her brows raised.

What?

The king of the Hun was immediately caught in a daze as his body trembled.

At the same time, Wolfgang who was cowering in a chilly fear suddenly trembled too while staggering backwards. Him crossing fists with Jack had ended. However, when he staggered backwards, his face suddenly turned pale and he spat a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, there was blood flowing out of Jack's mouth too. The difference between them was that he had slowly retrieved his right hand and wiped off the blood stain on his mouth with the back of his hand. His left hand pushed Amanda lightly.

"Amanda, come back here now!" Cynthia quickly rushed forward and brought Amanda back to an elevation below the throne. She wanted them to maintain a safe distance from the action.

"Right now... perhaps we have a chance." Outside the palace, the female guard whispered with shining eyes. She had personally witnessed Jack's indomitable spirit which raised his battle prowess. His style o trampling over everything gave him a chance here against Wolfgang!

"Why did it turn out like this? My Black Dragon, and I have achieved my peak by learning in the Constellation of the Wolf, but why... why did I suffer such damage from his one attack?" After steadying himself, Wolfgang's bloodied pale face was in a state of shock.

He had been talented in martial arts since he was young, and that enabled him to enter the Wolf House without a problem. He had learnt various fighting style there, and his time there formulated a strong mentality on his part. His singular move "Black Dragon" which he had learnt in the Wolf House gave him confidence that he would be able to end this man in front of him with just a punch. However, the actual outcome had exceeded his expectation!

Not only was Jack able to dispel his move with just a punch, he was the one who suffered worse injuries after their clash!

"Kill..." Before Wolfgang could come back to his senses, in the palace, a hollow and bloodthirsty voice slowly filled the space.

Bang!

A very horrendous air current exploded from Jack's feet, and it shattered the jade floor which he was standing atop. He looked like a wild beast now as he pounced at Wolfgang with the aura that resembled a sea of blood and corpses.

"Wolfgang, look out!" On the throne, the king of the Hun screamed frantically, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

However, before that warning could take effect, Jack was already in front of Wolfgang as he simply lashed out with a punch on Wolfgang's face!☐☐☐☐☐☐Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
