I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Erend's sharp eyes followed every movement, taking note of the nuances in the battle. The crimson-coated man who he heard his name was Thalrok from the exchange between him and Krevak, wielded his fire like a living weapon and using it to propel himself across the battlefield with bursts of power. His flames coiled and lashed out like serpents.

Krevak, in contrast, fought with a more refined style. His golden fire moved like liquid light and forming weapons and shields with a fluidity that matched the elegance of his movements. Both of them were strong, their teamwork seamless as they coordinated attacks to keep Eccar on the defensive. As if they had been doing this for so long.

But Eccar wasn't defeated yet.

Erend smirked faintly, watching his friend hold his own against the two avatars. Eccar's earth-shaking attack and shields of stone were perfectly timed to countering their flames. It was clear neither side had yet gone all out—they were testing each other, probing for weaknesses.

Then, Eccar let out a roar that sent a visible ripple through the air.

"ROAR!"

The energy around him turned chaotic. The brown and black light of his Dragon Scales grew brighter. The ground beneath him trembled as fissures spidered out in every direction and the jagged rocks that rose at his command glowed faintly as if infused with his rage.

"I guess he's done holding back," Erend muttered.

Thalrok sneered, his red flames flaring up as he prepared to charge. "You think roaring is going to scare me, lizard? Let's see you handle this!"

He launched himself forward, his flames forming twin blades that slashed through the air. But Eccar moved faster, his enhanced speed catching Thalrok off guard. Eccar sidestepped the attack with ease and drove a stone-covered fist into Thalrok's chest.

The impact sent Thalrok hurtling backward, his body crashing into the sand with a huge explosion. Before Thalrok could recover, Eccar was already on him and slamming a pillar of rock into his body. The crimson-coated man groaned, his flames flickering as he struggled to shield himself from the attack.

Krevak seized the opportunity to attack, summoning a massive spear of golden fire and thowing it at Eccar.

Eccar turned at the last moment and raising a barrier of earth that absorbed the fire weapon. The spear exploded against the barrier, sending molten shards flying in every direction.

Eccar pushed through the smoke and debris, his glowing Scales cutting through the haze like a beacon. He closed the distance between himself and Krevak in an instant and slamming his foot into the ground and sending a wave of jagged spikes hurtling toward the golden avatar.

Krevak leapt into the air, his flames propelling him upward, but Eccar anticipated the move. He pulled a massive boulder from the ground and throw it at Krevak.

The golden avatar barely had time to react. He created a fiery shield that shattered under the weight of the stone that had been imbued by Eccar's earth Magic.

Krevak crashed to the ground and coughing as he tried to push himself up. But Eccar was relentless. He surged forward immediately and he sending his fists to rained blows at Krevak. Each attack sent tremors through the ground and Krevak's golden flames began to falter under the relentless assault.

Thalrok attempted to intervene, his flames forming a massive whip that lashed out at Eccar. But Eccar caught the whip mid-air, his Dragon Scales absorbing the heat. With a grunt of effort, he pulled Thalrok toward him and delivered a devastating punch to his face, sending him crumpling to the ground.

The battlefield grew silent save for the crackling of fading flames. Krevak and Thalrok lay defeated and their powers dimmed.

Erend, still crouched in the shadows, allowed a small grin to cross his face.

Eccar stood with his Dragon Scales glowing brighter than ever. He turned his gaze toward the remaining avatars.

"Who's next?" he growled.

The tension in the air thickened as the four remaining avatars fixed their look on Eccar. Though their expressions remained calm, subtle hints of concern flickered across their faces. They hadn't expected that Eccar had feigned weakness and luring them into this.

The black-coated man stepped forward, his expression impassive, though his sharp eyes betrayed a flicker of intrigue.

"You pretended to be weak," he said, his voice measured.

Eccar chuckled darkly, rolling his shoulders as if loosening up for the next round.

"Yes. That's why you brought me here without hesitation." He jabbed a finger toward Krevak, who was still groaning on the ground. "I told him before that I don't know what you're talking about with this nonsense of Dragonborn stealing your powers. I came because I need answers about my history. And I admit it that without you, I wouldn't have known this place even existed."

The silver-coated woman's lips pressed into a thin line. "He's been using us," she said.

The navy-coated man and the emerald-coated woman exchanged tense glances, their postures stiffening. Their auras grew sharper.

Yet the black-coated man remained composed.

"So, now that you've revealed your hand," he said slowly, "what's your plan after this?" Experience tales at empire

Eccar didn't hesitate. He took a step forward, his fists clenched, and his voice was like rolling thunder. "I'm going to kill every one of you," he growled, "and then find out what's behind that door."

The avatars exchanged looks, their initial surprise replaced with cold amusement. The silver-coated woman let out a soft laugh, her sharp features twisting into a smirk.

"You don't really think it'll be that easy, do you?" she asked.

Eccar's eyes narrowed, his glowing Scales pulsing with raw power. "Try me."

Before anyone could act, a groan came from behind him. Krevak and Thalrok were stirring. The golden-coated man pushed himself to his knees, spitting out a mouthful of blood as his flames reignited with a dull glow. Thalrok stumbled upright, his red flames curling weakly around him.

"You think you've won?" Krevak muttered, his voice hoarse. He wiped blood from the corner of his mouth, his golden eyes blazing with renewed hatred. "We're just getting started."

Thalrok sneered, his fiery aura flaring erratically as he steadied himself. "This lizard will regret underestimating us."

The four other avatars stepped forward in unison.

Eccar's muscles tensed, his gaze flickering between the six avatars.

"Come on then," he said, his voice a low rumble. "Let's finish this."
