Alex and Vali stared each other down, both tense as the other battles happened around them. Vali then ordered the wyverns surrounding Alex to attack him, changing them into miniature cannons. A second later twelve powerful bursts of his aura of Lucifer rushed towards Alex, while Vali himself also created a mass of demonic power to attack him. Seeing this Alex smirked, and didn't even try to avoid the attacks. A second later not just Vali himself, but everyone watching was filled with disbelief at what they saw. Moving at a speed they couldn't see, Alex used a single hand to slap away all the attacks from the miniature wyverns, and used what seemed like a casual ki attack to eliminate the mass of demonic power as well.
All of this happened within a few seconds, and it was painfully obvious that Alex was the one in a superior position. Soon the twelve cannons started preparing another shot, while Vali created an even larger and more powerful mass of demonic power, making people think he was just going to try the same thing with just more power. However when he released the power, Vali himself disappeared, using the demonic power as a cover as he tried to move in close for a direct attack. What no one saw coming however, was that Alex also charged forward directly into the Vali's attack, completely avoiding the ones from the twelve cannons.
Vali was completely surprised when the attack he was trying to take cover behind was suddenly destroyed, and Alex appeared in front of him, before delivering a kick directly into his chest, and shattering the armor in that area. Suddenly being unable to breathe, Vali was sent flying backwards through the air until he impacted the ground beneath him. Surprisingly the ground felt softer than the kick he got from Alex. As a massive cloud of dust rose from where Vali impacted, several of the surrounding people halted their own battles to look at him, before swiftly resuming. As he slowly rose to his feet, Vali looked up and saw Alex standing across from him, not in any hurry to continue their battle.
"It seems like you didn't overpower Indra so easily for no reason." Vali said to attempt to buy time for his armor to be repaired. At this Alex laughed, and asked,
"If you think this is impressive, you should see my next form." Hearing this Vali suddenly had a cold sweat running down his back. He was so obviously overpowered by him as is, what would happen if he got even stronger? It was this point that he suddenly heard Albion's voice,
As his reminder the cold sweat covering Vali's back seemed to get even colder. Vali then tried to convince himself that his shivering was due to excitement, that he was thrilled to have such a powerful opponent in front of him. He then had another thought, Alex's golden transformation was a complete unknown to everyone, so there was the chance he was just bluffing. Reaching this conclusion Vali regained the confidence he convinced himself he didn't lose, and prepared to face Alex once more. When he saw Vali's face, Alex's brows went up in surprise, and he asked,
"Do you think I'm bluffing? Oh well, I planned to present this during the fight anyways." Following his words, Alex then made a face like he undergoing an intense physical burden, and started yelling as the aura around him started fluctuating chaotically.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"
Vali watched as Alex started growing even more muscular than he already was, to the degree that it became ridiculous and tore the upper part of his uniform. His hair that was already pointed straight up became just as chaotic as his aura, and started spreading every direction as well. His eyes seemed as if they started glowing, and flashed repeatedly between pure white and normal. To accompany his chaotic aura, lightning started crackling around him due to the intense power his body was emitting. Everyone in battle stopped what they were doing and looked towards Alex in pure awe as his strength soared to even greater heights.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"
As his transformation finished Alex's yelling started to tone down as well, and what was left standing there was something one could only describe as a behemoth of a man. Everyone was staring in shock at Alex's new look now that he finished transforming. His hair was spread out even more out of control than normal, while his muscles were now grown to outrageous proportions, his arms wider around than a normal head, and finally there was the occasional spark of lightning coming off of him. Even though Alex himself was doing next to nothing, his aura now seeming to warp the space around them, disturbing the pocket in the dimensional gap they were in.
"So, will we continue?" Alex's now rough voice sounded throughout the now quiet arena, shocking Vali into remembering they were in a fight. He then concentrated every wyvern on Alex, and started using them to fire continuously at him, while Vali himself started preparing a different attack. Alex didn't even bother trying to defend himself against the attacks of the wyverns, as to the current him they felt negligible. He watched as the chest area on Vali's armor started opening to reveal his most powerful attack, Satan Lucifer Smasher, his version of the Longinus Smasher issei used in the series. Alex smiled as Vali started charging the massive attack, putting more power into it than he ever had before. Those that seemed as if they were in the pathway of such an attack suddenly started fleeing, running to the relative safety behind Vali, the only exception was Kuroka and Grayfia as they were still in Kuroka's barrier.
The entire time Vali was charging his attack, Alex was still standing there waiting for it. He had long learned just how drastic the drawbacks of the form itself were, each limb felt weighted down as if he applied extra gravity to it, and he could feel his stamina draining away just by standing there. However the drainage wasn't as bad as when he actually moved, meaning the energy loss was slow enough while he stood still he could maintain the form for even longer. Taking such action, or lack thereof, also negated the worry about speed, as he wasn't even moving in the first place. Alex's goal in using this form wasn't just to use it to dominate over Vali, but he wanted to use it as a deterrent for those that would plot against him. This was one of the more impressive looking forms for intimidation as long as the side effects weren't seen through, and he intended to send a message using it to those who might be tempted to make an enemy out of him. After what seemed like a long time, Vali had finally finished charging his SLS and pointed it directly at Alex while his wyverns fled the area.
"Try this on for size, SATAN LONGINUS SMASHER!" Vali shouted as the massive amount of silver and black aura approached Alex. Alex simply lifted one of his hands on response to the attack, and took it head on as he was soon engulfed in he silvery black power. Not just Alex, the entire arena behind him. was also soon engulfed in the power, as the entire area shook from the intensity of the attack. Vali was panting heavily as he used up almost all of his energy for that attack, he then started grinning at the fact that he might've beaten his rival, until the dust from his attack started clearing.
Not just Vali, everyone on both teams, and every single person watching the match couldn't believe what they saw, as Alex appeared from the smoke of Vali's attack looking completely unscathed. Vali's face started twitching at the unreasonableness of the situation, this was supposed to be the fight where they settled heavenly dragons grudges, yet everything he did was countered as if it was nothing! Vali knew Alex was stronger than him to begin with, but this had only made him more eager for their match as he wanted insanely strong opponents, but this difference was too exaggerated! Vali then rushed in towards Alex and thrusted his fist out with all the strength he could muster, only for it to dully thud on Alex's stomach. Alex didn't even flinch at Vali's attack, and said,
"I guess it's time to get serious." Vali looked up at his words, and recalled what Albion said before, 'he has yet to use Ddraig's power'. At this thought a brief sliver of fear found its way into Vali's heart, before Alex backhanded him and sent him flying away. With his entire helmet shattered, Vali shakily stood back up, and saw Alex summon his boosted gear's gauntlet.
With that Vali had his wyverns surround Alex as they shouted,
And stole a portion of Alex's energy to add to Vali's. Though his power would steal half, Vali specifically knew not to attempt to take that much, as there was a limit to how much power he can take at once. He then started using Compression Divider, his ability that halves the size of objects and beings until nothing, but Alex simply shrugged it off. That was obvious, if He was able to use it on everything stronger than him then it was an extremely broken ability. Vali was almost tempted to use Reduce, but Albion had warned him that the ability was ineffective against Ddraig.
Alex had his second boost, putting Vali in even more panic. He didn't know how far Alex planned to boost himself, and had to do something before he finished. Vali then used his wyverns to start siphoning off Alex's energy while using it to charge another SLS, even more powerful as the last one.
Even though he couldn't take half the amount of power Alex had, Vali was surprised at how much he was getting, before sending it directly to the growing amount of power in his SLS. Seeing this Alex simply smiled, wanting to see what Vali had planned for him, as he was about to reach his last boost. At the same moment he finished his their boost, Vali also finished his next attack.
"SATATN LONGINUS SMASHER!"
***
Ajuka was torn between ripping both of those boys a new one, and being deeply impressed by the amount of power they both had. He was currently personally keeping the barrier around the game field in check along with an entire team, half of who had already fainted from draining their magic powers doing so, as Alex's aura and Vali's attack threatened to destroy it. He had never seen strength this exaggerated, and personally hoped it would be a height never reached again.
After his boosts Alex's aura alone was threatening to collapse the game field, as it had never been designed to hold in that much power. Vali on the other hand had used Alex's own power to fuel his most powerful attack, and then punched a hole through the game field, while simultaneously destroying everything around them. Shaking his head at their insanity, Ajuka turned back towards the screen showing the game and became surprised at what he saw.
Vali was collapsed on the ground after using that much power, while Alex, was exactly where he was when they began. Even after taking all of those hits from Vali, he had not moved a single inch from his current spot, nor did he look as if he took any damage. Ajuka was in complete shock, as he watched the rest of the fight unfold.
**
Alex thanked Ddraig for his warning, before turning his attention back to Vali. Due to his sudden increase in strength the aura around him had gotten stronger, and almost seemed to be warping light itself around him. He didn't have long to admire himself however, and turned towards the collapsed Vali.
"What do you say now Vali? Will you submit?" When he heard this Vali felt that which he never had since the day he left his family, fear. The only one had inspired it in him in his whole life was his father when he was abuse him daily, now there was another, his rival, Alex. Vali bowed his head, knowing it was over, and said,
"It's my loss, the white now submits to the red." With his words the fight ended, and the Azazel cup now had a winner. As Vali and his team were brought out of the game field, Alex released his transformations, doing everything he could to not let others see how drained he was. As the announcements rang out stating Alex was the champion of the tournament, all he cared about was going home and sleeping off his exhaustion from using the transformation and powering up so much.
What Alex didn't know was that all the VIPs were talking about the strength he revealed, and the fact that he forced the White Dragon Emperor to submit to him. This fact alone created the arguments that the red and white emperor titles were no longer needed, and Alex was becoming officially known as the Dragon Emperor. He was now one who reigned over all dragons, with only the dragon God and Great Red themselves being above him, but even this was now subject to controversy.
