nOn the battlefield, for a brief second people weren't quite sure what they were seeing. The demon tier beast had been slayed by a Redwing and the beasts in the nearby area had stopped fighting.

n'Is that Ray?' Lenny wondered. It certainly looked like Ray, but something about him and the armour he was wearing was different. It was radiating with so much power that it took a while for Lenny to take everything in. His life long goal was to get rid of the demon beast that was working with the Shadow, the one that had killed his family.

nHe thought it was an impossible task. No kingdom or even the Empire could match up to those who worked for the Shadow, and now his life goal had been completed in seconds.

n

"Let's get rid of the Shadow, once and for all!

" Ray shouted, as he fired off a large fireball in the direction of the beasts that were now standing still, killing all those that had touched the fire ball.

nSnapping out of it, Lenny used what blood was around him to help out. His body was also stronger and faster but how long this would last, he didn't know.

n

"Thank you Ray, thank you for helping me achieve my goal. However I still feel like more needs to be done, so I will help you as much as I can!

" Lenny shouted, as he knocked out beasts with his bare fists and slashed at them with his blood aura all around.

nRay continued to use magic to get rid of most of the beasts in the area, firing off all sorts of different spells. He used lightning, fire, and earth but even though he had greater power than he once had and was closer to his old self, he would still run out of Mc points.

nHowever, that wasn't a problem at all for him, as he lifted up the crystal from the demon tier beast.

n

"Absorb.

" Ray said and the crystal started to turn into dust in his hand. A faint glow was seen around his equipment and armour, powering him up even more. When all the energy had been absorbed, an almighty roar that shook the whole battlefield they were fighting on was heard.

nDragons roar activated

n

"It's Ray!

" Martha said, as she was busy flying trying to navigate the best path to the grand mage Wiz.

"He really made it.

"

nThe single roar from Ray had empowered all the members of the Redwings, they were finally able to push forward more so than ever before. Now that Ray had joined them as their leader they could see victory in sight.

nTowards the front of the group, Jack now had the help of Noir, and both of them were battling with a demon tier beast. Although Noir was fast and able to attack the beast and hop out in time, it seemed like her attacks were doing nothing.

nSeeing this, Jack decided to leap on and attach himself to Noir's body.

n

"Take me with you!

" Jack said. With Noir being a wolf herself, she understood every word Jack was saying.

nWith the two of them pouncing in, Jack was able to use his claws to try and chip away at the demon beast bit by bit and the two of them thought they were finally getting somewhere, until the beast roared in anger and started to pound its chest with its rock fist like a gorilla. Several pieces of rock fell from his chest.

n'His body is falling to pieces, why is he hurting himself?' Jack thought, watching on confused.

nAs the pieces of rock fell to the floor, underneath the red molten lava that was assumed to be the beast's blood was seen. It dripped down the beast's body and glowed an intense bright red hue.

n

"This may kill me, but it will get rid of everyone on this entire field!

" The beast shouted as his chest started to light up and the power within him started to explode.

n

"You will not be doing that.

" A voice said, and soon the beast was being encased in ice. The ice was melting rapidly and turned to steam upon contact with the lava, but it seemed like the magic of whoever was using the ice was outpacing that of the beast. Eventually, the entire beast was encased in frozen ice.

nLeaping up in the air, Ray was seen above with his dragon sword and had sliced the beast completely in half on his descent. He cut the ice again and again, one after another until the beast was finally in several small pieces. The beast that was glowing with lava just seconds ago, was now nothing but pieces of rock on the black ground and melted snow.

nSeeing the beast gone, Jack felt his energy disappearing from his body and returned to his human self.

n

"Ray, you're here! How did you get so strong?

" Jack asked.

n

"I've nearly regained all my powers.

" Ray said.

"These beasts are nothing in front of the great dragon Sen.

" The next second, wings had quickly sprouted out from Ray's back and he jumped up to and began through the air.

nTwo of the Shadow guards that were causing a lot of trouble were destroyed in mere seconds by Ray and now he was going after the third one that was causing the most trouble.

n

"Ray!

" Martha shouted, getting in front of his flight path.

"Leave him to us. You have to get Van. You have to stop them from opening up the portal.

"

nLooking up, Ray could see a portal opening up in the clouds and it was getting larger by the second.

n

"They are planning on bringing back all the dragons from the dead, not like last time, real dragons. You have to stop them!

" She shouted.

n'Dragons, why would the Shadow want to bring back the dragons?' Ray wondered. Seeing the portal opening up, he decided to trust Martha and do what she had said. He flew up to the high tower, where Van could be seen tied up and standing in front of him was the shadow man, the person behind all of this mess.

n

"So I finally get to meet you, you who have made my new life hell!

" Ray shouted.

nThe shadow man started to laugh.

n

"We finally reunite after such a long time, Sen. I don't understand, isn't this what you wanted? You wanted to kill all the humans! So why are you stopping me, Sen? You should be standing by my side!

"

nGripping his sword tightly, Ray was ready for a confrontation. He wasn't at full power just yet as one more set of the dragon equipment was needed, but that was lost with Gary forever. He had to confront the foe in front of him with the power he had.

n

"What are you talking about!

" Ray shouted.

"Who are you?

"

n

"I'll make you remember who I am!

" The shadow man shouted as he leapt forward. The two strongest forces the world had ever known were ready to clash.
