“Give up and surrender; there’s no way you could ever defeat me,” Dragov declared, finally recovering from the shock of Alec possessing a specialized spirit equipment set made just for him.

He wasn’t overly concerned about that; he was confident in his victory over Alec.

His self assurance stemmed from the fact that his dragon scales provided protection on par with Tier 5 spirit equipment, and it was specifically tailored to his bloodline, in that regard, Alec was merely matching him by donning his Infernal Mantle Set.

Furthermore, Dragov was emanating a Mid Tier 6 aura, while Alec was still a low Tier 5 mage.

Despite this, Alec didn’t feel like he was battling someone of that caliber.

Dragov was a genius, exceeding all expectations, capable of fighting above his rank, even though he projected a Mid Tier 6 aura, his battle prowess was dangerously close to that of a Tier 7 mage.

Though he lacked the mental abilities tied to creating a domain that normal Tier 7 have but was confident he could dismantle any peak Tier 6 mage in just a few moves.

This confidence allowed him to treat Alec with a certain respect, as he appreciated that Alec could match him for this long despite being in a lower realm; however, Dragov preferred that Alec wait until he was stronger before challenging him directly.

With his desire for battle somewhat quelled after Titan’s death, Dragov found himself asking Alec to surrender, sensing that the fight would soon become dull now that Alec had lost his “top toy”, a term Dragov used to describe Alec’s golems.

“How can you just nonchalantly ask me to surrender without truly facing me?

You’re acting as if you can already see the future, but the truth is, you can’t,” Alec said, his tone steady but laced with defiance.

“I’ll put everything I have against you, I won’t stop until I’ve made you pay for the damage you caused to Titan.

And if I lose in the process, so be it.”

With that, Alec turned his blade toward his chest.

[Cannot stack bonus of the same weapon twice.]

Alec understood immediately and dissolved the second Blood Katana he had created.

On the other side, Dragov could hardly believe his eyes.

Once again, Alec had found a way to bypass his defences, leaving cuts all over his wing which he had been utilising as his shield.

It felt as though he were fighting without the protective barrier of his dragon scales, leaving him baffled by how easily Alec had penetrated his defences.

As he watched Alec dissolve the second katana, Dragov felt a mix of frustration and admiration.

Here was someone who appeared almost clueless about the significance of his actions, yet he was continuously finding ways to challenge Dragov.

And the thrill of the fight invigorated him; the more he clashed with Alec, the more excitement surged through him.

Looking down at himself, Dragov noticed that his regeneration had kicked in, healing most of his wounds, and he felt ready to re-enter the fray.

The rush of struggle and the sensation of pushing his limits when clashing against Alec excited Dragov like nothing else had in a long time.
