Hero of Darkness

At the present moment, the subordinates were doing their best to keep the Dragon at bay and allow Kahn to run away by attacking it from the sky, pulling it to the ground, and trying to bind it in a place so their master could get enough time to escape. 

But as soon as the guardian Dragon decided to stop playing around… all of them suddenly lost control of their powers and the guardian revealed itself to be a Darkness elemental creature of all things. 

"Dammit! Why did it have to be a darkness elemental dragon?!" cursed Oliver. 

The current situation was already unfavorable to the three subordinates holding the front. 

Not only were they low leveled compared to the dragon, but it also had the Darkness element, one of the strongest elements of reality. 

"Don't lose focus! We must stall it for enough time till master safely escapes." said Omega as he used hundreds of giant spikes made from solid rocks and attacked the approaching enemy. 

Even though Omega and Oliver could use Lightning elemental attacks and skills, the opponent was a being of darkness element. 

An equally strong element and on top of it, it was a higher level compared to all of them. So the damage they could do here would already be minimized. Only Omega had somewhat chance to stand against this enemy. 

"Attack!" shouted Ceril and cast the Shadow Blades Barrage skill. 

Omega used Sword King skill and created 500 elemental katanas, each of which was 20 meters in length while Oliver on the other hand prepared 5 Vajra lightning bolts and five hundred varying elemental arrows. 

"Now!" shouted Omega. 

Swoosh! 

Shrill! 

Rumble!! 

Thunder!! 

A volley of multicolored weapons and attacks approached the dragon who stood only 5 kilometers away from them at this point. But the look on the face of this ginormous creature was neither of alarm nor of worry. 

"Hmph! Fools…" spoke the dragon and right when the attacks entered one kilometer close to it… 

The dragon suddenly opened its long maw but instead of spewing the classic old Dragonfire… it spew a fire that quickly formed a 300 meters wide black wormhole suddenly and faced all the incoming attacks. 

And right before their eyes… all of their attacks and skills passed through the hole but there was no impact whatsoever. 

Schwoomm! 

Schwoomm! 

The three subordinates had horrified expressions on their faces as they watched all of their attacks getting engulfed in his black wormhole. 

Do you want to read more chapters? Come to p a n d a - n ovel,c.o.m In the following moment, a multicolored wave of energy exited the other end of this black hole, and this force made of mana, world energy and different elements passed inside the dragon's body as if it was it was a filtered and pure version of their attack was synthesized. 

The dragon closed its eyes and gave an elated expression. 

"Thanks for the meal." spoke the dragon as he gave a coy smirk. 

"Nani the fuck!" exclaimed Kahn who saw the scene through Ceril's vision. 

All of their combined attacks that were more than enough to kill a 4th stage saint, were simply… eaten? 

"So far, not only this boss could render them unable to use their skills temporarily using that purple aura to get a hold of their mind… it could also suck in and absorb their attacks through that black hole engulfment skill. 

And from the looks of it, it felt like the dragon himself absorbed the energy and mana from their collective attack. 

"200 years… I haven't had a decent meal in the past two hundred years ever since I was defeated and kidnapped from the Dragon Empire. 

That wretched human forced me to become this place's guardian and sealed me here. And finally, I have seen someone else here other than me." revealed the Dragon in its majestic and domineering voice. 

"You three… I don't know how you got here but attack me together and entertain me. 

I might as well let you all live." spoke the Dragon as it made a deathly command. 

[System… what the hell is that power?! And exactly what kind of dragon is this?] asked Kahn. 

[The specimen in front of the host is a lesser dragon, the weakest kind among the true dragon species. 

The ability it possesses is called The Plunderer. It allows its user to engulf and transform different forms of mana, elements, and world energy to absorb and raise its strengths. 

The more energy transformed and absorbed by the user, the quicker their levels and world energy reserves will rise. 

This ability is a Legendary Rank innate ability, extremely rare even among the strongest species and creatures of the world.] reported the system in one single go. 

"Blood hell… doesn't that mean the attack made the three actually empowered it?

How can someone so big and OP just be a lesser dragon?!" asked Kahn in a baffled tone. 

[Yes.] replied the system. 

"All of you! Retreat! Don't attack it!" Kahn quickly warned all of them before they made another move. 

Any more attacks and they might as well help their enemy to level up and become far stronger than it already was. 

[But master… you'll die if it finds you.] replied Ceril. 

[I can hold it for a while. You all should escape. I can be revived even if I die but master can't.] spoke Omega through their mental link. 

"Don't worry about it. I have a plan." replied Kahn he suddenly stopped in his way. 

He looked at Ronin and gave a command. 

Ronin nodded and then disappeared from the spot. 

As for Kahn, he changed his direction, and instead of running away… he sprinted towards the battlefield between the Dragon and his subordinates. 

"System, pull those three in my shadow. They'll die a useless death if they stay there." commanded Kahn. 

In the following seconds, the three generals turned into massive black shadows and quickly charged toward Kahn's direction. 

The dragon was left speechless as it saw these massive creatures suddenly change shape and turn into black shadows. 

Finally, after 5 minutes, the three shadows merged with Kahn and he stood atop a mountain peak just 3 kilometers away from the dragons. 

There was no fear or sense of worry in Kahn's eyes as he faced this mythical rank lesser dragon. 

"Interesting… you are so weak but you're not trying to run away from me." said the dragon as it looked down on Kahn. 

"Tell me… who are you?" it asked in a tyrannical voice that shook the nearby terrain. 

"Me? You could say that…" spoke Kahn with a focused look on his face and replied in a motivated voice… 

"I am the storm that is approaching."
