The Crowned Greed: Transmigrated into a Demonic Dragon-Chapter 165: Spear Vs Cannonball!

Slash!

Dante’s sword changed its path midway and cut upward.

But Zoran’s cloak blocked the attack, leaving his chest undamaged.

However, a shadowy sword suddenly emerged.

Slash!

The second slash was also blocked by the cloak, but its brightness and the golden lightning moving through that specific point became faint, almost like broken lamps. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Then, a second shadow slash followed.

Slash!

"Argh!"

The shadowy sword cut the faint cloak and passed through Zoran’s skin and flesh, leaving a wide bloody line on his chest.

Before Dante could land another attack, Zoran’s leg moved with the speed of lightning and threw him away.

"What the hell is this technique?!" Zoran spat with blood through his teeth.

He touched his chest and looked at his hand, a look of surprise and disbelief appeared on his tough face, as though the thought of him getting such an injury defied all common sense.

"What, didn’t you want to see all I have got?" Dante laughed despite the immense pain in his stomach after that kick: "That cloak can’t save you from repeated attacks if they’re fast enough!"

Dante charged forward and attacked with a crazy smile. He wasn’t as fast as the titan, he wasn’t as strong as the titan, but he had the help of the shadow blades.

Quantity over quality!

Every time he landed a strike, two shadow blades followed his strike almost in an instant, giving the titan no time to retreat or launch another attack.

Dance of Greed — Shade-chain Slashes!

Dance of Greed was a sword technique that had the principle of starving for more and more attacks.

After getting the mask, Dante got the ability to change the path of his attacks at will. That allowed Dante to land more and more strikes as fast as possible.

However, that was merely a normal sword technique. It had no magic or real power, but Dante knew that it was just incomplete.

And here, Dante did the only thing that he could think about.

He modified it himself!

Using his knowledge and experience of using the Shadow Aspect, Dante created his first magical sword technique!

One strike wasn’t enough. The main principle of Dance of Greed was the key.

He created a technique that allowed him to land as many attacks as he could, creating shadowy swords that possessed 60% of the power of Dante’s strikes.

Yes, 60%, the same 60% that Fafnir possessed. Fafnir was Dante’s inspiration in creating this technique.

However, Dante could only create two shadowy swords currently. His mind wasn’t strong enough to handle more than that.

But for now, that was more than enough.

120% more attack power wasn’t a joke!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Dante and Zoran clashed like beasts, every one of them landing several attacks into the other.

Dante had lost count of how many times he was punched or kicked. His back felt numb after he crashed into countless trees and rocks over and over again.

But Zoran was facing a worse condition. It started with his chest, then Dante’s strikes became unpredictable. Sometimes he attacked Zoran’s arms and legs, sometimes the targets were his back and chest. However, none of Dante’s attempts succeeded in cutting Zoran’s neck.

CRACK!

All of a sudden, Dante’s sword spread wide cracks across one of Zoran’s gauntlets.

"That’s enough!" Zoran roared and unleashed a burst of lightning from his body without chanting, pushing Dante back before his shadowy blades could follow his strike.

RUMBLE!

Zoran’s cloak suddenly became brighter, and a giant spear of lightning appeared in his hands with a roar of thunder, spreading arcs of lightning everywhere.

His figure blurred at a rapid speed as he swung his spear.

"Are you afraid of using your hands now?" Dante mocked and jumped backward with a backflip, avoiding the spear that almost cut him in half.

However, he noticed that Zoran was significantly faster!

Zoran’s body was covered in blood after several slashes cut through his skin, but now as he held the spear, all the scars looked meaningless in front of his mighty presence.

A grin tugged at his face as he said: "This cloak is my first skill. It enhances my body, reaction speed, and gives me great defense. However, that defense isn’t absolute. You can still bypass my defense with a strong attack or repeated fast attacks. I have to consume my spiritual energy to fix the damage, and this process takes time."

His hand touched the tip of his spear with pride: "This spear is my second ability. It’s not only my mighty main weapon, but also my pride, legacy, and my promise of victory!"

"The more I bleed, the stronger my spear and I will become! Your attacks will only make us stronger, and your fall is guaranteed!"

Zoran hit his chest with his hand lightly to show his pride: "Only a few people pushed me to use this spear. No one ever survived this other than my father. Little Nobody, you have to stand proud in the afterlife after dying by my own hands!"

Dante tilted his head and secretly removed the link he made between Zoran’s misfortune and health. He couldn’t drain it slowly at this point.

Thus, he linked the misfortune to Zoran’s strength!

"You are really stupid, huh? I can’t believe you just exposed your abilities." Dante sighed and pointed his finger toward Zoran.

Silver Ether Spell — Ether Cannonball!

BOOM!

A silver cannonball shot toward Zoran rapidly, flying like a ghost due to its speed.

However, now enhanced by the spear, Zoran’s eyes barely detected the cannonball. The moment he did, his hands moved on their own, swinging the spear in an attempt to cut the cannonball.

BOOM!

But to his surprise, the cannonball took him and his supposed mighty spear into the air with it. It suddenly exploded with a burst of energy, sending them even further.

BAM!

Finally, they landed in a cave and destroyed it.

His entire cloak was giving off a faint light. He stood up with his bones screaming in pain.

"...What was that just now?"

He shook his head and raised his spear, feeling an insane surge of power through his body due to his wounds.

However...

"..."

His spear didn’t have its sharp blade.

Not only was the sharp blade missing... half the spear was actually missing!

Dante’s attack split it in half.
