Chapter 201: Fire Vortexes

Seeing that they were brought outside of Mythbreak's interior, the twins looked at Greg with surprise.

They weren't surprised because Greg used his power to bring them here through his shadow, but because of the sight, they saw inside the darkness.

When they were brought inside there, they were able to see hundreds if not thousands of small gates with different scenery moving in them. They instantly realized that each gate represented a shadow from the surroundings, so just the thought that Greg was able to access to all of them, made the twins instantly speechless.

It was a common fact, that even those with the element of darkness could only 'teleport' through the darkness only if they had their destination marked.

Even Kuragari, who was a professional when it came to shadow and darkness control needed to mark the place with his power to be able to use his power on it in the future.

For example, when he first met with Greg back in the past and started to chase him, he was able to track him down because he marked him with his power. If Greg wouldn't have been right inside his Core Territory, no matter how hard Kuragari would have tried, he shouldn't have been able to chase and find Greg when he escaped.

And because of this, Sarah and Sandra were extremely shocked. It was a total surprise to them to realize that Greg had such a powerful ability, yet he didn't use it frequently.

"Maybe using his power puts a burden on his body, so maybe that is why he doesn't try to use it repeatedly, I guess.", said Sarah quietly to her sister as she watched Greg and Juan in the distance. 

While the two were talking among each other, Juan smiled and said, "I see. Then let's fight here."

Just as Juan was about to activate his power, suddenly Greg raised his hand and said calmly, "Wait a second. I forgot to tell you something."

"?"

The moment Juan heard this, he looked confused, but just before he could have asked why, Greg smiled calmly and said, "5 seconds. I want you to stay still until 5 seconds."

"Eh?"

When Juan and the others heard this, they looked at Greg with confusion, not understanding what he meant under that request.

Seeing his confusion Greg waved his hand around and said, "Don't misunderstand me, I don't want to fight unfair, so because of this, if you are still able to stand on your feet after 5 seconds you have won. However if not, then it is my victory."

Juan hearing this frowned slightly and asked, "So to be clear, I try to defend myself against you for 5 full seconds without falling to the ground. If I succeed, then it is my win, but if not I have lost, right?"

"Yes.", nodded Greg in reply.

Thinking for a while, Juan smiled and said, "For me, it is fair enough."

"Perfect.", said Greg and continued, "Then say it when you are ready. I will attack you from that moment."

"Sure.", said Juan with a nod and instantly he took up a solid posture.

*BAM!*

With a small explosion, the ground below Juan's feet cracked, while 3 different half-transparent colored dragons appeared after one another.

Shiny golden, abyss black and crimson red-scaled dragons stood behind Juan, turning Greg's expression to turn to surprise.

He could clearly remember the moment he fought against Juan, and at that time he didn't have three dragons, but only one. 

"Well, it seems his power has grown too.", thought Greg calmly, waiting for Juan to say that he was ready.

Juan on the other hand just smiled slightly and the black dragon behind him moved and melted into his body. Instantly, the right eye of Juan turned completely black, while ash black horns started to grow out from his forehead, giving him an intimidating look instantly.

Seconds went by slowly, yet Juan still didn't say a single word, instead, his expression started to turn confused, making Greg to frown before him too.

"Is there a problem?", asked Greg calmly as he crossed his arms before his chest slowly.

When Juan saw Greg act as nothing happened looked shocked, but after a small, while he sighed and closed his eyes.

"No, not at all. I was just surprised for a second."

"Surprised? Surprised about what? I didn't do anything at all.", said Greg with a slightly raised eyebrow, trying to figure out what he could have done which made Juan surprised.

Hearing this, Juan opened his eyes, and while turning his left eye back to normal he said, "I was surprised by the fact that someone had a stronger spirit than me, that is all."

"!"

When the twins heard this, their expression froze up and looked at Greg. They didn't want to believe that what Juan said, but they had to. Juan just used his Rage Eye, so his statement should be perfectly accurate. If he said Greg had a stronger spirit, then it was true for sure.

But, to think that there was someone, who had a stronger spirit than the legendary Karyl... It was unimaginable.

Without spirit, there was no strong will and soul and without powerful will and soul, there were no absolute decisions in life.

The stronger the spirit was, the stronger and more stable one's decisions in life would be, while they could decide about things much more accurately without hesitation as others.

And this is what Juan's Rage Eye was about. The moment he looked at the opponent, if they had a weaker spirit than him, he could make their decision to become uncertain, giving him greater opportunity instantly. He could even make his enemies to become intimidated by his Rage Eye, resulting in them missing their attacks by pure fear.

That is why he was able to make Joe to miss his attacks, while he didn't do anything but stayed still in one place. Just with his Rage Eye, he is able to make his enemies miss their target because of uncertainty or fear. Even though his enemies were not scared by him mentally and physically, their spirit would, resulting in them to hesitate to act.

However, the moment Juan looked at Greg, he didn't felt any hesitation or uncertainty from him. It was like Greg was an unshakable mountain which no matter what happens, will stay high proudly.

And this is why Juan decided not to use his Rage Eye anymore on Greg and instead, he smiled and said quietly, "But still, I have stronger physical strength no matter what, so this is my victory!"

*BOOM!*

With a sound of an explosion, Juan's strength broke out, and while his muscles bulged up with power, the crimson dragon melted into his body.

Immediately as this happened, on Juan's already strong and tough-looking skin, crimson scales appeared, giving him an appearance very similar to that of the crimson dragon.

When his whole body changed and turned into sight very similar to that of a dragon, Juan grinned at Greg and said, "I'm ready. Come at me with everything you have."

"Well, if I go at you with everything, I fear you would die."

Naturally, Greg didn't say that sentence out loud, not wanting to look arrogant, so instead, he smiled and nodded.

"Sure."

Instantly as he said that he activated his First Flow, forming small wind vortexes around his whole body. 

Mila and the others on the side seeing this and feeling the wind element around Greg looked confused and didn't understand just how Greg wanted to fight against Juan with only that ability.

However, just as they could have thought anything more, suddenly a shocking and unexpected sight happened.

*BAM!*

Around Greg's body, the wind vortexes that were almost invisible until this point exploded and covered by golden flames, their speed fastened by several times.

From the outside, Greg looked like his body was covered with hundreds of golden flame vortexes, giving him a look that he was a personified fire tornado.

"Here I come!"

*BAM!*

And just before anyone could have reacted, Greg's figure vanished from sight, and like crimson lightning, he appeared next to Juan in the next second.

"!"

The moment the twins and even Greg's friend saw this they turned stunned. But it was not because of the fast speed Greg showcased, but the fact that he didn't give out a single sound.

Even though he had crazy golden flames around his body, which gave out small and quiet burning noise, the moment Greg moved everything turned silent.

So silent, that if one didn't have the ability to follow his movement, it was quite easy to miss his figure and react slowly when he appears on their side.

And because of this, when Greg appeared next to Juan's side while his body was covered with wild swirling flame vortexes, Juan's expression turned to amazement.

He wanted to raise his hands to defend against Greg, but just before he could have had the time, a leg covered with golden flames fell on the side of his waist.

*KA-BOOM!*
