The moment the announcer's voice echoed through the arena, the tension between Leon and CrimsonShade increased tenfold.
Both fighters launched toward each other with explosive force, the ground cracking beneath their feet.
"Devourer, just… DIE!"
"Heh…"
CrimsonShade was fast, faster than Leon had expected.
His crimson sword sliced through the air in a blur, aimed directly at Leon's neck.
Leon barely managed to block the strike with his right arm, which had transformed into a dragon's scaled limb, complete with massive claws.
The impact sent a sharp vibration through his body, but he pushed back, his strength enhanced by his [Dragon Arm] skill.
CrimsonShade grinned behind his dark helmet. "You're strong, Devourer, But I'm not going down that easily!"
His blade ignited with a deep red energy, and with a quick pivot, he swung again.
Leon dodged to the side, his instincts screaming as the blade narrowly missed his torso.
