The Lightning Dragon Knight

Chapter 44: The Battle of 2 Old Friends

"Albert! You still alive?" jinlong asked in shock.

"Haha... Jinlong apparently! Yes, I'm alive! Why are you surprised like that?" albert replied with a laugh on the sidelines of sentences.

"Tch... I can't believe you're alive! And now you're on the side of the devil! Damn traitor!" jinlong said with a face holding in anger, "As fellow dragons, we are required to remain loyal to our fellow dragon race until death! And yet you! You betrayed and chose to side with the devil! Basic lowly!"

"Lowness? You said I was lowly? Then what's the proper name for a person who leaves his friend at a crucial time like you, huh?! You left me when the explosion happened! And stupidly, I was hoping you'd come back with reinforcements! Yet... You never came back to this day! You suddenly appeared before me after a long time!" albert was angry.

"It's not so, Albert! I just..."

"What only? Fuck that useless excuse of yours!" Albert instantly turned into a human and attacked Jinlong as soon as he finished speaking.

Jinlong who was still unprepared, could only stare at Albert who was getting closer. As soon as Albert's attack hit him, Jinlong's body immediately bounced to hit the wall of the arena stands until it was hollow. His body also became human.

Albert did not stop. He jumped from the arena and walked slowly towards Jinlong as he gathered energy in his right hand. When his body was right in front of Jinlong's body, Albert raised his right fist intending to attack Jinlong.

"I'll end it here" said Albert slowly.

The old friend of Jinlong, was about to punch his fist. However, Jinlong's voice suddenly sounded and made him flinch.

"You won't be able to do it, Albert!" jinlong said with conviction.

"What do you mean?" albert did not understand.

"You can't kill me! You're not strong enough!" jinlong continued to gasp wide with blood flowing at one corner of his lips.

"Are you underestimating me, goddamn dragon?!" Albert smacked his fist into Jinlong's face with a burning fury within him.

"I told you, you can't kill me!" jinlong said casually, even though his face was already covered with wounds.

"You... Makes me mad!"

Albert was angry. He punched Jinlong in the face, causing his head to sink further into the ruins of the arena's tribune wall.

"justified? You can't kill me!" said Jinlong who still looks relaxed even though his face has been battered.

"Grahhh... Why can't you die?" ask Albert in frustration.

"Because..." Jinlong tried to stand up from the rubble of the arena stand that was destroyed by Albert's actions, "I can't be killed by creatures from the lower realms like you!"

Jinlong said it was right in Albert's left ear that made him feel furious. Jinlong cleaned his dirty clothes and cleaned the blood on his face.

"You must be furious, why am I saying that so confidently? Because I have a power that you forget," Jinlong said calmly. His speech this time was different from before that seemed relaxed.

"Power? You mean the golden lightning element?" albert asked confused.

"No! Not the golden lightning! I thought you'd forget it. Therefore, allow me to remind you back!"

Bzzz... Bzzz... Bzzz...

A golden lightning crackle suddenly appeared and wrapped around Jinlong's entire body. A very blinding light "blinds" Albert's eyes and makes him forced not to see what happened to Jinlong.

After some time, the light began to dim and replaced with a golden sheen that made the eyes stunned.

A person wearing a set of gold-colored armor was seen standing gallantly. The man carried a golden sword with a crackling of golden lightning that filled his blade.

"This is my power you've forgotten, Albert!" jinlong said with a serious face.

"It... The Golden Lightning Warrior Set!" albert was surprised not to play. Although there was still a hint of admiration that he kept in his heart.

"Good! You remember immediately! Now, you'll teach me a lesson!"

Jinlong disappeared from where he was standing and reappeared behind Albert's body.

Slashwas...

A sword slash landed right on Albert's back. It creates a scratch that spits out black blood.

"You have been contaminated by demonic energy" Jinlong said slowly as he saw black blood dripping from Albert's body.

"Bas with you!"

Albert took out a spear from his storage ring and immediately made a piercing move to attack Jinlong.

Albert's attack could still be broken easily by Jinlong. Now it was Jinlong who carried out a combination of quick stab attacks.

Trangs... Trangs... Trangs...

"AARRGHGHHHH!!! I don't think you're as powerful as you used to be, Jinlong!" praise Albert after knowing the painful power of Jinlong.

"I have a challenge! Do you want to hear it?" albert asked with a smile on his lips.

"What challenge is that?"

"The challenge is that we fight in the form of dragons!" answer Albert steadily.

"Dragon form, huh?" Jinlong acted like a thinking person. However, he finds out Albert's hidden purpose in the challenge.

"You're not thinking of destroying this place and killing people, are you?" jinlong asked which immediately made Albert speechless.

"It seems you can't be fooled" Albert said, grinning. At the same time, his body began to enlarge.

Black scales grew all over his body. Followed by two large black horns that appeared on his forehead. Slowly, Albert's body turned into a black dragon.

"GROOOOOOOOO!!!"

"Oh, you took the first initiative, huh?" mumbled Jinlong quietly.

"How's Jinlong? Did you accept my challenge? Fighting with me in such a form will only trouble you!" albert was arrogant.

"Well, you're right! This is a little troublesome! But, that doesn't mean it's stopping me from killing you!" jinlong reply was no less arrogant.

"Tch... You can be arrogant too! But, that arrogance of yours will only get here!" Albert shouted out loud. He then took a breath and exhaled it in the form of a black flame which he called 'The Fire of Judgment'.

Jinlong stared flatly at the black flames that were getting closer towards him as if taking Albert's attack lightly.

And when the black flame almost touched Jinlong's armor, a golden lightning suddenly appeared and directly struck Albert.

DUARR... BOOOOMM...

Two different attack elements meet. It created a huge explosion that was deafening to the ears. Followed by a shock wave that flies various objects and living things.

The light of the explosion blinded his eyes, making Albert unable to see Jinlong's position clearly. As a result, his body's defenses began to loosen.

Jinlong, who was already at the height of the sky, saw Albert's defensive state begin to loosen. He regained consciousness and immediately took a plan to carry out the attack.

Swush...

In one breath, Jinlong shot through the clouds and landed right on Albert's tail. Surprised at Jinlong's sudden arrival, Albert attempts to move his tail intending to bring Jinlong down.

However, his efforts were in vain. Not yet had his tail moved, Albert actually got an attack that landed smoothly on his back.

Duak...

A fist launched by Jinlong landed on Albert's back. Albert's body bounces forward and loses balance.

Albert fell from a height. But he immediately regained control of his body so as not to fall to hit the ground.

Having just managed to gain control of the body, Albert again got an attack from Jinlong who targeted the most risky part of his body, the head.

"I'll end it here! The Golden Lightning Warrior Puncture!" yelled Jinlong loudly.

Bzzz... BLAAAZZ...

Golden lightning gathered on Jinlong's sword blade. Creating a tinge of light that dazzles the eyes.

The radiant sword blade that Jinlong thrust out, continued to accelerate to Albert's head until...

Jamb...

"Gohr..."

Cracks... Krataks...

DUARR...

Breaking the dragon core in Albert's head. Made him die instantly without a fight.

Slowly, Albert's body fell to the ground. The sound of a bang was heard so clearly throughout the arena. Albert, the dragon of the underworld, is dead.

Jinlong's tears dripped. He didn't know he had to kill his childhood friend. In my heart, he said,

'Albert, I'm sorry I killed you. But rest assured, that this is for your good, my good, our other friend and all mankind,'
