Blood Type: Dragon

Elric held the burning blue spear in his right hand while standing unafraid at the charging evolved Eels. His eyes are firm and not a hint of fear can be seen at all. The Eel's body sparked as they swiveled their way towards Elric with hostile intention.

"I see, you managed to learn how to use the Authority of Fire..." Aghus watched Elric's battle with a mocking smile.

He is fully aware of how powerful his guardian Eels kept his Kingdom safe from any outsiders. Knowing that Elric has made a move out of his expectations, his curiosity only grew and with a sinister gaze, he added. "Let's see if you have what it takes to enter my kingdom., after all, how long was it that we have tasted human meat?"

"Hehehe..." Every other mermen and mermaid surrounding him giggled with hostility. Human meat is considered as one of their most favorite delicacies. Adding the fact that Elric is not just an ordinary human but a half dragon as well means that he should taste extraordinarily delicious in addition to the potential benefits of Dragon's blood and meat!

"I can't wait for my King. Why can't we just let him get inside already, I will be more than enough to handle him and serve him in silver platter before you." A salivating merman with dark green scales, yellow eyes, shark-like teeth and menacing look offered. His name is Shuk, one of Aghu's most powerful merman. Shug's body had been itching for all this time to get Elric, he has heard that human meat is the most delicious kind of meat that exist. however, he never expected that Elric is half dragon or he could have just went by himself and get Elric all for him alone.

"No, allow me instead Lord Aghus. You can't trust Shuk's appetite. He lacks control and respect. By the time he comes back with the human, I expect that we can have nothing but bones left." Another merman with the head of a sea lion immediately reacted. He is Aghu's most trusted merman named Dugong. He is smart and cunning that can quickly read between the lines.

"Are you doubting me Dogong!?" Shuk bellowed angrily.

"Based on your past works, yes. Do you have a problem Shuk? Or do you want to-"

"Silence you two!"

With a single wave of Aghu's hand, both Shuk and Dogong were slammed down to the floor with a terrifying impact. Both their bodies were hammered forcefully that it left a huge depression on the rocky floor.

A moment later, both Dogong and Shuk managed to recover quickly and bowed with respect towards Aghus. "Forgive us Lord Aghus!"

Recomposing himself, Aghus harrumphed and turned around to gaze at the huge bubble.

A long slithery tongue came out from his huge grinning mouth. "He is mine. And mine alone." His eyes grew wider with excitement.

"Guess, I will have to thank that firebird for sending me this delicious snack." Aghus murmured.

Six evolved Eels charged wildly towards Elric. All of them immersed a powerful electric charge ready to paralyze or if possible, kill Elric on the spot.

Wooooshkk~

Woooosk~

WOooshK~

Their swimming speed left blurry images of them and remnants of lightning in the water scattered wherever they go.

Elric waited for the perfect timing before throwing his Spear of Fire. And just when one of them reached just a few meters away from him, Elric whisked the Spear of Fire and it went straight to the head and immediately penetrated its body until it came out of the other side!

"KYAAAAAA~"

The Spear of Fire went through the body of the front Eel like a hot knife cutting through the cheese and went straight to the next target that followed the first one.

Luckily, the second one managed to dodge the attack and continued to charge towards Elric but right before it could continue, another Spear of Fire flew from a different angle and successfully got the second Eel in its lower body.

Elric's flame is unlike ordinary flame that needs the presence of oxygen and combustible materials, Elric's flame is summoned through his own will. He can do whatever he wants with fire as long as he willed it, thanks to the overpowered benefits of the Authority of Fire.

Feeling the power of flame searing through its flesh, the two pierced Eels wiggled their body in pain trying to stop the flame wit the help of water but the fire continued to burn flawlessly.

"What is this" The Eels were caught in surprise as they realized that the being before them is no ordinary one at all.

The evolved Eels did not just become stronger, but faster and smarter as well. They knew pretty well that Elric is gonna threw that Spear of fire so they immediately stopped their direct charge and adapted a more evasive maneuver.

This time they all charged towards him in a spiral.
