Chapter 437: Arcane Bruisers

Chapter 437: Arcane Bruisers

Meanwhile, Ethan had already activated his Holy Armament form, launching himself straight into the sea of enemies—13th-Tier Kirins and 14th-Tier Sacred Kirins swarming across the mountains and ocean like a living tide.

Even though he’d been a Crimson Ultimate Hero ever since his second awakening, he hadn’t really had a chance to go all out in a real fight. Honestly, even he didn’t know how powerful he’d become.

And that question—

As the man himself—

Of course he was dying to find out.

And right now?

This battlefield was the perfect opportunity.

Whoosh!

A streak of holy light tore through the sky. Ethan shot down like a divine sword from the heavens, plunging straight into the heart of the Kirin and Sacred Kirin horde in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Auremax’s expression shifted. He rushed forward, clearly alarmed.

"Master! It’s too dangerous here!"

By now, Auremax had fully accepted his role under Ethan’s command, just like Seraphina and Cicero. And because of that, the idea of Ethan putting himself in harm’s way didn’t sit right with him at all.

Fighting side by side with their lord on the front lines?

To them, that wasn’t just risky—it was a mark of failure. A shameful sign that they hadn’t done their job.

If their lord had to personally take the field, what did that say about the strength and competence of his Hero Units?

"Auremax, I get where you’re coming from," Ethan said, his voice calm but firm. "But you don’t need to worry so much. You know what this battle means for Emerald Castle. Compared to that, me stepping onto the battlefield myself? It’s more than worth it."

He gave a small smile, then casually raised his hand and cleaved a 13th-Tier Kirin in half with a single strike—without even touching the ground.

Then he turned to Auremax, eyes narrowing, his tone growing serious.

"Auremax, go. Bring me victory."

"Seraphina and Kyros are still locked in a stalemate. If we can finish things here quickly, we can go help them. You understand, right? So lead the invincible Gold Dragon army and crush our enemies."

"I want to see this war end—fast."

"ROAR!!"

"As you command, my honored master!"

Auremax gave a deep, resolute nod, then threw his head back and let out a thunderous roar.

The sound shook the heavens and split the earth—

A terrifying, primal cry of war.

BOOM!

RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE—

At the same time, his entire body erupted with a dazzling explosion of multicolored magical particles—each one pulsing with raw, terrifying energy, visible even to the naked eye.

They swirled around his massive, golden-scaled body,

Radiating blinding light,

And unleashing a storm-like aura of overwhelming power.

This was the magic of all elemental attributes—

Unleashed in full force.

Gold Dragons were born as masters of all elemental magic. Aside from a few ultra-rare, specialized spells, they could wield nearly every common magical attribute—and not just wield them, but push them to terrifying heights with ease.

That’s why so many called them "Arcane Bruisers."

The term wasn’t just for show. It meant that Gold Dragons weren’t just devastating in close combat—they were also magical powerhouses, rivaling even the top-tier archmages from the Tower faction.

RUMBLE...

At that moment, hundreds of Kirins and Sacred Kirins surged forward like a tidal wave, snarling and baring their fangs as they charged straight at Ethan.

There was no fear in their eyes—only bloodlust and the thrill of the kill. They locked onto Ethan like predators, crashing toward him in a frenzy, each one hoping to be the one to take down the enemy lord.

If they succeeded...

It would be a massive blow to the Emerald Castle—and a huge win for their side.

But—

They had no idea just how strong Ethan really was.

BOOM!

A blinding surge of holy light exploded from Ethan’s body. His wings flared wide in midair, and in the next instant, he shot through the Sacred Kirin and Kirin horde like a bolt of divine lightning.

In a flash—

His power erupted.

A massive, invisible pressure field burst outward from him, expanding across the battlefield in a wave that stretched for miles—tens of thousands of feet in every direction.

And everything caught in its path—

Whether it was an 11th-Tier Naga Swordsman, a 12th-Tier Naga Swordmaster, a 13th-Tier Legendary Unit like the Kirin, or even a 14th-Tier Mythic Unit like the Sacred Kirin—

They all dropped like dominoes.

Hundreds of elite units—at least half of them—were instantly crushed under the sheer weight of Ethan’s power.

Up on the city walls, Regnar XI and Opriston watched in stunned silence. Their pupils shrank. Their faces went pale.

Pure shock and horror twisted their expressions.

"Wh-What the hell?!"

"He’s a Crimson Ultimate Hero too?!"

Regnar XI’s voice cracked with disbelief, his eyes wide with dread.

In that moment, his entire worldview shattered.

Emerald Castle didn’t just have one or two Crimson Ultimate Heroes.

They had four.

Four god-tier Crimson Ultimate Heroes—each one fully awakened.

What kind of madness was that?

He couldn’t even wrap his head around it.

That kind of power and depth... even if the Greenwave Empire itself showed up, they’d be crushed underfoot.

And as that realization sank in, a wave of raw terror and despair spread across Regnar XI’s face.

"Opriston, this is all your fault!" Regnar XI suddenly spun around, grabbing the still-stunned Opriston by the collar and shouting in his face. "Now look what’s happened! That Emerald Castle lord—he’s a Crimson Ultimate Hero too! What the hell are we supposed to do now?! If he wipes out all the Kirins and Sacred Kirins, we’re dead! We’re all dead!"

Opriston flinched, his body stiffening as the words hit him. His face twisted, caught between shock and fury. But even though rage boiled in his chest, he forced it down. Now wasn’t the time to lose it.

He clenched his jaw and said through gritted teeth, "Storm King, get a grip. So what if he’s a Crimson Ultimate Hero? We still have Sea King Maelthorak’s Kirin army! With our forces combined, we’ve got nearly three thousand units. Three thousand! Why the hell are you acting like we’ve already lost?!"

"You need to remember—we’re the ones who are going to win this!"

The words hung in the air, sharp and defiant.

Regnar XI didn’t respond right away. His face was still pale, his heart still pounding with fear—but he swallowed it. Forced it down. He said nothing more.

Because deep down, he knew.

This was the path they’d chosen.

There was no turning back now.

All they could do was put their faith in one thing—that the final victor would be Sea King Maelthorak and his nearly three-thousand-strong Kirin army.

If not...

Then they’d be the ones crushed. The ones who’d taste the bitter end of defeat.

But what they still didn’t fully grasp—what they couldn’t grasp—was just how terrifying a Crimson Ultimate Hero truly was.

No—more than that.

Ethan wasn’t just any Crimson Ultimate Hero.

He was a second-awakened Crimson Ultimate Hero.

And that made all the difference.

THUD. THUD. THUD...

BOOOOOOMMMMM...

The battle raged on, but Ethan—he was only getting stronger.

Every strike, every movement, flowed smoother than the last.
