Aya was a viperdragon. He was the descendant of a shadow leopard, a magical beast of the eighth step. He could transform into a human, but his Strongest Battle form was when he was in his shadow leopard form.
Shadow leopards were the best killers in the forest. Their stealth skills were almost undetectable, and even the dragon clan would be impressed by their combat power.
After Aya transformed into a shadow leopard, his combat power was no worse than a real shadow leopard. He might not even be stronger, because he not only had the genes of a shadow leopard, but also the genes of a Dragon.
Even so, Aya's status in the Vipers wasn't very high. He was only a Captain of a small team, and he was currently stationed at the cavalry fortress on the border between the Leon Empire and the stupa Empire.
