Elric felt a headache. As if the world hates him, one enemy after another keeps popping out. What is really happening!?

As much as Dash wanted to go with Elric, he had no choice but to volunteer this time. Especially that the incoming ent.i.ty possessed the same Lord energy as him, he should be able to give it a fair fight if necessary.

"Take care and thank you, Dash. I have to go now." Elric did not hesitate to accept Dash's offer. He had been feeling incredibly uneasy for a while. A bad premonition is shouting to his instinct. 

Dash nodded in response as Elric continued moving, leaving behind the trusted friend to stop the incoming figure.

SWOOOOOSH~

Elric left behind a long fiery trail as he flew across towns after towns.

He could see burning houses and demolished buildings here and there. b.l.o.o.d.y scenes welcomed him as dying people can be seen lying on the roads. Police and military personnel can be seen doing operations, seemingly on alert of something dangerous.

Fast ambulances are wailing from the distance as they brought with it wounded innocent people.

"Just what really happened here. I was too isolated because of the barrier and I couldn't hear a thing from the outside." As it turns out, there was another war on going from the other side of the barrier.

Elric's sensitive ears could capture a lot of information even from his current distance. Using the clues of the people's loud cries and bellowing, clues were quickly connected. It did not take long for him to finally understood what happened.

"Arkhans..." Elric mumbled as his eyes burned with hatred.

"I guess I should wipe your race too..." Elric added with a cold voice.

It seems like the Arkhans decided to bring the fight against the Guardians on the ground, risking the lives of the innocent humans along the way.

Based on the descriptions from the ordinary human's chatter, there suddenly appeared about hundreds of advance-looking s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps that were being chased by another group of smaller s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps. Elric identified the pursuers as the Guardian's special jets and they were mercilessly shooting down hundreds of fleeing bigger Arkhan s.h.i.+ps.

The Guardian advance s.h.i.+ps were very small but they possess firepower that could take down Arkhan s.h.i.+ps about five times bigger than theirs. The Arkhans finally decided to play the dirty game by bringing the fight in public eyes and even endangering the ordinary human lives knowing that the Guardians would not dare to harm the ordinary humans.

And with the advantage on the Arkhan's side, they wreaked on a wild rampage against the ordinary humans to force the Guardians to switch focus on defensive strategy trying to protect the innocent humans.

The human was still in shock and eyes on utter disbelief could still be seen in their paranoid faces.

It was a battle that shocked the humans, bringing forth an unexpected national emergency which is the reason he could see the armies being dispatched.

Unfortunately, normal human weapons are merely tickling tools against advanced Arkhans. But aside from the messy traces of the battle. What Elric was worried about is the more obvious traces of Lesse and Long nearby!

Elric was just about to burst far when he suddenly felt another dangerous aura coming from another direction. His instinct crying loudly of danger and Elric immediately heightened his senses.

"This-"

KRAAAAKAABOOOOM!~

And the next thing Elric knew, he was already deeply planted on the ground. Lying on a deep crater caused by an unexpected powerful lightning attack.

Thank's to Elric's insane healing ability, it only took him a single second to recover back.

His eyes were glaring with murderous intent towards a certain direction. A mysterious man finally revealed himself from the shadows as if a waiting bystander.

The man's fingers were still smoking from the last attack. His eyes covered in black shadow and a Dragon's eye could be seen barely covered by his long hair. It was a black man with overwhelming killing intent.

His eyes showed no signs of fearing Elric at all.

"Long time no see mad Dragon from ten years ago. Did you enjoy your little showtime?" The mysterious black man said as he slowly revealed his hand transforming to a long black scythe. 

"Name's Forgar by the way. I hope you can still remember me." The next moment, the man's hand started to explode into a furious lightning spark.

"Because it will be the name of the strongest Elemental Dragon who put a stop in your legend."

Seeing this, Elric could not help but frown in surprise.

It was a Dragon with lightning Elemental ability!

***

Back at Dash's location, the entire place that the turtle is now an utter mess.

The town that used to bustle with thousands of people had become a desolate land due to the unexpected happenings. The merciless attacks of the Arkhan s.h.i.+ps made all the human to run to their underground hideouts or to protection shelters hoping to survive the current situation.

And to make it worst, loud rumblings of thunderbolts could be heard rampaging the entire towns. As if there were two G.o.ds fighting outside!

Not one single soul dared to go out the moment the lightning attack from the mysterious creature rained a few minutes ago. Little did they knew, it was only the beginning.

WOENG~WOENG~WOENG~

Dash is currently covered in healing water trying to mend the wounds that are bleeding profusely on many parts of his body. He is currently the size of a small car and was puffing heavily in black smoke.

"That was just a warm-up and you are already down?" 

The echoing sound came from a bluish sparking wisp. Its center was just the size of a small basketball but the sparks that were furiously crackling around it could reach quite a long distance.

From afar, the sparking wisp looked like a white octopus with hundreds of flashy lightning tentacles.

It brought forth a terrifying presence that Dash could not help but feel incredibly scared of. Especially that it was an enemy with a natural affinity to lightning - the ultimate weakness of the Water Elementals! 

The sparking wisp did not have a face but its voice can be heard like an echoing thunder! And as it turns out, just based on its aura and power, Dash immediately identified the creature as the Lord of the Lightning Elemental Realm - the most mysterious planet in the Elemental Realm.

"You sent that Dragon away thinking that you can take me on alone? Fool!" the sparking wisp spoke with full confidence as it's whole body started to bloom in flashy light.

"Don't worry. Your Dragon friend is as good as dead the moment he meets my new pet. But for now, let me send you to your grave!"

And like a light bulb switched on, it unleashed a long line of tentacle-like lightning attack!

KRAAAAKAABOOOOM!~

A flash of lightning temporarily illuminated the whole area as it successfully connected to Dash's body - sending the turtle away in a rolling crash.

KABOOOOM~

Struggling to get up, Dash felt like his body was being crushed by an incredibly hot and electrifying hammer. Not only was it incredibly painful, but the paralyzing effect and the feeling of utter dominance also overwhelmed him.

However, Dash is not that easy to give up.

"If I am gonna lose, I should at least last longer to give Hugon kid more time." Dash thought to himself as he pushed his muscles to fight the numbing feeling away. With determined beady eyes, he got back to his feet.

"Oh? Do you still want to fight? Do you really think you stand a chance against me? You peasant from the lowly elements!" The sparking Wisp's arrogant voice echoed to the surroundings. 

"Hmp! You are just like me, a Lord of the Elemental Realm! What makes you think you are more awesome and legendary than me!" Dash, recomposed himself and talked back like a big man towards the arrogant sparking wisp.

"Oh! Did the last attack actually make your b.a.l.l.s bigger? Let's see it explode then!"

Swiftly, his body exploded to a blinding light, ready to unleash another series of lightning attacks to punish the turtle before it.

With unperturbed eyes, Dash's figure suddenly shrank back to its mini baby turtle form. Dodging the lightning bolt with a swift cut. 

Then, Dash unleashed his own water cannon blast.

"Oh you want to play with water on me!? HAHAH! Idiot!" The wisp said with a condescending laugh.

However, what next thing that happened surprised the arrogant Lord of the Lightning Realm.

Dash was not spewing the water blast towards him but to the opposite direction instead!

SHOOOOOO~

The powerful water blast sent Dash's little turtle body closer towards the arrogant wisp at a blurry speed!

Instinctively, the Lord of the Elemental Realm unleashed a barrage of lightning bolt as retaliation but missed the little guy.

Then Dash's body suddenly burst in blue fire and unleashed it at the arrogant sparking wisp at point-blank range!

The arrogant voice is now gone as the bluish wisp Lord of the Lightning Elemental Realm was instantly covered in the purifying blue fire unleashed by Dash.

"Wait-fire!? but you are-" 

BWAAAAAAAHHHHSSSS!~
