Overpowered life of a Drako Tamer - Chapter 5 Friendship through Battle

As the two stared at each other there were no sounds. No birds stirred and not a single bug noise, as if they could sense the coming battle. Out of the tree line came the she wolf with red fur, moving into the yard and stared at Lucius. Elias came to call the female Drako Ani, she was protective of the boy and her glare was entirely on the new visitor.

Mir was also in the same mindset as the wolf, and she was glaring at the man as well. Jahrico and Myra simply sat and watched the two, continuing to eat and sip their wine. They had seen enough young ones fight to know where this was heading.

“Seeing as if no one starts the match you will continuously to stare at each other till your eyes fall out. I will set the ground rules. Firsts, no breaking my hut, our food, or the Booze, second; don’t cause any serious damage to the other or kill them. Thirdly don’t destroy my Booze. That is all… on my count you will start the match. Are you ready?”

Their silence gave him his answer.

“Three!”

Elias knew it would not be easy, Lucius left no openings. The mans defense was impregnable.

“Two!”

Lucius new not to underestimate the son his rival. If it was anything he knew about Eric, it was his tenacity.

“One!”

A full frontal assault, the mans eyes were sunk into Elias’s soul. No tricks, a full all out offensive. Elias’s smirk grew even more as he got into position. Lucius’s smile grew along with the boys, memories flooded him of his first fight with Eric.

“Fight!”

The two men dissipated in a flash of speed each dashing right to each other. And then their fight had begun. The two men traded attacks at each other. A punch, a kick, other moves that were to fast to be determined. The speed of the two fighters were super human.

With each attack the other would block or evade. Because of their speed it seemed they were multiple sets of them fighting in the yard, but they were just afterimages. They were actually creating a breeze in each direction because of their flurry of attacks. As Elias evaded a Kick from Lucius he knew that if he didn’t try anything they would continue like this for as long as they could both stand on two feet.

That was when magic came into play. At first it was Lucius who was using his wind affinity to increase the speed of his movements, but he also put his hands on fire as to cause a distraction. It succeed at catching Elias off guard and Elias was kicked in the abdomen. A gust of wind was seen from the impact and Elias was sent flying backwards. He rolled a couple times and coughed up a bit of blood.

“Come boy, you are not done yet I hope.”

As he rose up he wiped the blood away from his mouth revealing his smile even more sinister than before. Lucius had not felt this rush in so long and his smile reflected the boys. They began their onslaught once more, but Elias had begun using magic as well. The gust they created was more of a raging wind wind now, trees swayed and branches broke.

Elias coated his entire body in wind and his hands in water. As he attacked water slung from his hand and to the ground. Lucius had now gone on the defensive because he was tasked not only with his wind magic but now he had to care for footing. Elias had thought of this before hand and already figured out how to bypass it.

At each step Elias took he swapped the ground out for new fresh dirt. As Elias continued the onslaught of attacks Myra and Jahrico were continuing to eat and drink happily. The two Drako watched the moves of Elias carefully. Soon Elias had a plan.

He erected walls of stone on all sides of Lucius and cornered him. Lucius was surprised by that as he only saw two of Elias’s affinity’s. And no human prior to his knowledge had more than two. With his back against the wall Elias saw his chance. He focused all his wind magic on his arms and legs. As Lucius struggled to block and evade the speed at witch Elias was attacking grew faster and faster till all you could see of him was a mess of hands and feet. Lucius was taking several hits.

After awhile the walls collapsed from the strain of attacks. The two were seen standing facing each other both panting with an unimaginably evil grins. Elias shirt was destroyed as he dogged Lucius’s attacks and was bare. Lucius was worse for ware, he thought he had two broken ribs and a shattered femur.

Each began laughing between pants, it was Lucius who spoke next.

“You know, hah hah, they tested me to be one of the fastest mem in the country, hah hah, but it seems Iv’e gotten old. Eric, hah, would be proud of you, hah hah, you’d give him a run for his money.”

“Thank you, hah hah hah, that was the most fun Iv’e ever had, a real challenge, hah hah”

“There is just one thing I have to say, Experience trumps natural talent any day of the week.”

“Hows that?”

As the words left his mouth Lucius dissipated and the next thing Elias saw was blacknes. Lucius had chopped him in the back of the neck, causing him to fall limp into the mans arms. Lucius laid him on the ground and both Drako were already next to him.

Swooo Swoo

Ani laid a paw on his chest and then laid her head down, lowly growing at Lucius. Lucius limped back to the table and sat down, taking sip of wine.

“He is Eric’s kid, the grin was all I needed. Old man tell me everything you know of him, abilities, tricks, nothing left out.”
