Dorian breathed a deep sigh of relief, the horror in his heart fading as he watched the nized the King Class undead, fro
On Blizzaria, there were a nigh uncountable number of Lord Class undead, a testament to hoerful the fallen Grakon and fallen Giant race were The Western Cave Systeinally home to the Grakon Race Most of the enemies Dorian would encounter would therefore be undead Grakons
However, there also existed h the caves, waging their eternal war against the Grakons No matter how
A few of the undead on the planet had gained so around for thousands of years
The skeletal Giant Dorian had just encountered was one of those legends
The One Armed Iron Giant of the fallen Giant Race A rasp hold of the Law of Cutting, and wielded a gargantuan sword made out of Thorin Iron, an extre vaainst the Eleventhborn, and one of Helena’s allies, studied
The vast majority of the dead on Blizzaria reth lowered to the Early or Mid Lord Class, through sheer physical strength
WHOOSH
thud
thud
thud
Dorian watched as the right ar its wrist Despite its huge size, the being ly fast
Three separate Grakons were sent flying into the air, their bodies torn apart froone unnoticed, despite its abnorroups of Grakons approaching it fearlessly, their bodies expanding in size as they charged Sorew to be 13 or 14 hly 20 er undead he saw
Despite that, it still remained a fact that no matter how much taller the Grakons hly 220 meters tall
Waves of Grakons attacked, and waves of them were destroyed Dorian eyed the field ofat the various corpses Most of thee so, off to his right
A quartet of large, scaled Grakons had appeared, cli up onto the ruins Behind the strengths and size
They’d been drawn here by the Giant’s arrival, and seeed froround that the Iron Giant had destroyed when it planted its sword near hiical sight he’d heard of in his research The lands in the cave systenificant daood&8221; Dorian muttered as he and the Grakonwith exhaustion
It had been many hours since he last slept The sheer effort of transfor to take its toll on hi the sareatsword every scaledfor a response, Dorian turned his body and sprinted off away froe of the ruins
Behind him, he made out the frenzied sto after him
‘I won’t outrun them They’ll just draw the attention of other Grakons in front’ He swore, turning his head back briefly The creatures weren’t particularly fast in ht line, they could pick up speed quickly
‘Should I use the Berserker Demon?’ The form remained untested, but was one that he had faith would clean ship with these Grakons, especially if he combined his various Abilities
He frowned as he looked around, dis to head towards hi his forht&8221; He said aloud, shrugging,
"Plan B it is&8221;
He reached the very edge of the ruins The stone platforood thirty or so e, Dorian pulled on every fiber ofdoard
And then exploded upward, his body hurtling through space as he crashed through the air
"Woa-woah!&8221; Dorian yelped aloud, a rush of exciteround sky, flying high
The roof of the cavern he was in was far, far above him, more than a thousand meters away
As his body launched, he flew at least a hundred h in the sky, 130above the ground floor
"GRRRRRR!&8221;
Behind hi yells of a few of the Grakons as they jumped after hi
Immediately, in mid-air, his body ained a pair ofbeady eyes
His Black Ale for hian to fly
Behind him, several of the Grakons had expanded and leapt after him Unfortunately for them, their sheer body size and the heavy scales that coated thehed theround, let alone 100the sensation of flight He turned his beak back behind hi Grakons as if to say goodbye
His body twisted and fell 10 ained control of hi a as stupid
He soared until he was roughly 700-800 h in the air, well above any of the Grakons, or even the Iron Giant down below, but still far froan to coast forward, slowly headed for the ruined city in front of hi as he began to go over his plans
‘I can take one of several paths fro over the on over it
It had been an expansive city, with tens of thousands of stone buildings All of theular hus built into various stalagh in the air while others low to the ground There didn’t sees built up into the hanging stalactites
Most of the buildings were a faded grey color, and in ruins, often covered with ice
At the center of the city was the ical stream of liquid ice Dorian had read about
It was, to be ical ice that was frozen to a te too close to the river could freeze a creature to death, let alone getting in it
Despite the fact that Gworen Ice was a solid, and not a liquid, it flowed here like regular, unfrozen water due to odd spatial pheno like a liquid Dorian shook his eagle head as he looked at it,He still couldn’t quite wrap his head around it
This river was purported to have been used in the creation of the reatswords almost universally used byhis plans, a loud explosion drew his ears
The Iron Giant had just plunged his sword into the ground, fore, 100 meter wide crater, about a thousand meters away from the ruined walls of Icicar
At least two dozen Grakons were sent flying, their bodies hurtling through space Shards of ice and stone ripped into the air, flying out
Dorian, 800 e
The Giant stood still for a moment and then held its enormous sword aloft
"ROOOOOAAAAARRR!&8221;
It let loose an incredibly loud roar, incoer infused within it Dorian tre to maintain his focus for a briefroar was returned, froin of the noise, his eyes alert
THUD
A huge body blurred over the dilapidated city walls, landing down several hundred ht as he watched the body blur and expand, growing to a massive scale
It was a Grakon, but completely unlike the Grakons he had seen
It was far, far larger, standing at least 90use of its Ability It wielded the signature gargantuan greatsword that all Grakons used, holding it aloft and pointing it towards the Iron Giant
It was covered in aged, white scales, instead of the glea black scales he had seen on rey ar, white cloth rapped over its eyes, covering them The arside it
‘It’s blind? Ah’ Dorian recognized it from his research
It was one of the few Grakons or Giants that was known by actual nains of the name, or how it came to be known as it, were unknown to Dorian At least, he couldn’t discover why in the cursory research he’d done
The blind Grakon was known as Aristode Class Grakon
&8211;
Species: Grakon (Desiccated)

Dorian watched as the two King Class warriors approached each other, the air around theround and theto repair itself, the broken stone and ice reforan frantically flapping towards Icicar He realized, then, that he was far too close to the warriors
BOOM
Behind him, Dorian felt more than heard a concussive shockwave spread out as the two King Class fighters sla up enormous explosions of ice and stone shrapnel
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
Dorian’s body twisted and turned as a chaotic flurry of air currents ran flush against hiled toto nosedive Even his Steady Wings Ability was of little use, the unreasonable currents throwing everything asunder
Arcs of wind slashed out in rando attacks, splitting the air Both of the ancient warriors had studied the Law of Cutting, and infused their understandings of that Law into their strikes, giving the holes were carved into the ground and ice nearby, several stalactites and stalagmites completely severed
‘Damn it’ Dorian swore, and then shifted forht Perhaps if he’d been born a Black Aht instincts could have saved hiained for flying in this form, he didn’t consider hi to stand more than 6 and a half on form
If there was one forreat distance without serious injury, it was his huge, resilient Giant Myyr Dragon form
The wind buffeted Dorian brutally as he tried to hold his wings out, his large body shuddering back and forth He had les and was hurtling doards it
At the hly two hundredfast
As he sailed doard, he felt an odd, tingling sensation One that went to his core, his soul This sensation drew hi in, as if he was being drawn by Fate soh the effects of his abnorain control of himself
At the very last second, just a few dozen ht hi down as he reached just above the city proper
Unfortunately, all he ed to do was slow his descent He winced as his Giant Myyr Dragon for it
THUD
‘OWWWW!’ He mentally swore as he collided with one of the e amounts of stone rip into his scales Warm blood poured out as he came to a rest, covered in bruises and srey dust rose into the air, obscuring his vision
‘Switch’ Hehis body shift
He returned to his Ifrit forot to his feet The injuries froon for hiht arm felt as if it was broken and he’d cracked at least three ribs, if not broken them as well Apart from that, as well as the bruises and scratches that covered his body, he was in a good condition
His regeneration kicked in as his body set about repairing Dorian took a few breaths, a feeling of tiredness trying to overwhelm him
He needed to find a place to hide away and rest
He fiddled with his Spatial Ring,sure it was secure for a brief second He then looked around, gathering his bearings He had just caused a disturbance in the city, but he wasn’t particularly worried
BOOM
The sound and co was ht raise
"Cough, cough!&8221; He took a few steps forward, exiting the haze of stone dust as he looked over the ruins of the house he had just destroyed
As he finally cleared his vision, he froze, his heart ju just a few irl with a pair of tufted fox ears
