The Kirin clan are sacred spirits from the Spirit Realm—ancient, powerful, and with a legacy as deep as ours, the Dragonkin. They’re no joke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re born with dominion over water. Any form of it—oceans, rivers, lakes, even rain—they can control it all. That makes them natural-born water mages. No, scratch that—water gods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And especially out here, in the open sea? Unless you’re talking about some long-lost sea monster from myth or legend, the Kirin are basically untouchable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even our Dragonkin, or the Inferno Devils, or Angels—we all avoid fighting them at sea. Because if you’re evenly matched in power, you’re still probably gonna lose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cicero suddenly shifted tone, brushing it off with a lazy shrug. \"But that’s just regular Kirin. Nothing too crazy. The real monsters? The Sacred Kirin—Mythic Units from the Tidesworn faction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Out here on the ocean, the Sacred Kirin are known as immortal and undefeated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That strong?\" Ethan’s expression shifted, clearly shaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Cicero’s personality well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Always looked laid-back, like he didn’t care about anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in truth? Deep down, he was just as proud and arrogant as Seraphina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So for him to openly admit something like that—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That hint of awe, that flicker of caution in his voice—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It said everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sacred Kirin weren’t just strong. They were terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kind of force that, once they hit the water, became unstoppable—like they were swimming in their element with some god-tier buff activated. Practically invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s eyes lit up, a spark of longing flickering in them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unbeatable navy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ruling the seas, dominating every direction, untouchable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was his first impression of the Kirin clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as a Lord, standing before such overwhelming naval power, how could he not be tempted?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could... if there was even a chance...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted a Sacred Kirin navy of his own—one that could tear across the oceans, unstoppable and unmatched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that dream ever came true...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the Emerald Castle’s navy would rise to the level of those legendary sea empires—crushing everything in their path, feared by all, challenged by none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like that, without a sound, a seed was planted deep in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buried, but very much alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Draven...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Lucan clenched his jaw, staring ahead, trying to hide the panic in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pirate King Draven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the three scourges of the coastal waters near the Unicorn Duchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His naval force alone was nearly half the strength of the entire duchy’s fleet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, even though Draven hadn’t brought his full armada, what he had brought was more than enough to be a serious threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially with those monsters hovering in the sky—Inferno Devils with their twisted grins, and even worse, the Mythic-tier Inferno Arch Devil, radiating pure malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re done for...\" Marquis Lucan let his arms fall to his sides, drained of all strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were full of resignation, and there was a flicker of pain on his face—as if he were already mourning his own death. \"Looks like... the two of us are gonna die here today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Die?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan actually chuckled when he heard that. He shook his head, calm and composed. \"Relax, Marquis Lucan. If they think they can kill us... they’re not nearly qualified.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment those words left his mouth, the entire battlefield fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shff! Shff! Shff!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens—no, hundreds—of eyes snapped toward Ethan all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in those stares, a storm of emotions swirled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked at him like he was insane—like some delusional fool who didn’t know his place. It was laughable. Ridiculous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter what they thought, in that instant, Ethan’s presence carved itself deep into everyone’s mind. No one could ignore him now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not Marquis Lucan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not Draven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ripple of tension passed through the crowd. Even Draven’s expression shifted slightly, his body tensing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed, flickering with cold light as he stared Ethan down, voice low and dangerous. \"Who the hell are you? You’ve got some nerve, acting like I’m nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was sharp as blades, and the killing intent rolling off him was unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t just angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted Ethan dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ethan didn’t flinch. He met Draven’s glare head-on, his voice cutting through the air like steel. \"And who the hell are you, that I should care?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no fear in his tone—only dominance and defiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no intention of playing nice with some scumbag who’d thrown in with the Inferno faction. And that murderous glint in Draven’s eyes? Ethan saw it clear as day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone who wanted him dead?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then there was no need for courtesy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was cold, his aura sharp and oppressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like that, Draven and his crew’s faces twisted with fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t just provocation anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a slap in the face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You little bastard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Draven’s voice was a snarl, his teeth clenched, rage boiling over. \"You want to die that badly? Fine—I’ll grant your wish! Domit, kill him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Master!\" came a thunderous roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From behind Draven, a massive ogre-like warrior—one of his elite hero units—let out a furious bellow. With a single leap, he launched himself off the deck of the warship, charging straight at Ethan with murderous intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold, bone-chilling snort echoed from deep within Ethan’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying surge of energy exploded from behind him—like a rift in space had been torn open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A storm unlike anything seen before erupted into existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A monstrous, apocalyptic wave of power surged outward, sweeping across the battlefield like a tidal wave from hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it appeared, it devoured everything in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the thousands upon thousands of aquatic units in the water—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of it was thrown into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a dragon sucking up the ocean, the sea itself twisted and rose into the sky, dragging everything with it—spiraling upward, piercing the clouds—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then crashing back down into the depths with a deafening roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One after another, the bodies crashed into the sea, triggering monstrous waves that surged sky-high, swallowing the surface of the ocean whole. The endless sea churned violently, roaring like a beast awakened in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound was deafening—like the ocean itself was screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene was pure chaos. Terrifying beyond words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WMMM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a deep emerald glow surged from the twisted rift in space behind Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then—it appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A colossal, sky-darkening beast emerged from the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not just any dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one was massive beyond comprehension, its wings blotting out the sun, its presence suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wh-What is that...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way... That’s impossible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasps and cries of disbelief erupted across the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eyes widened. Pupils shrank. Faces drained of color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ROOOOAAAAARRRR!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderous dragon’s roar tore through the heavens, shaking the very air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shockwave blasted outward in all directions, ripping the sea apart and creating a vacuum in the ocean’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurricanes howled in its wake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>THOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive, emerald-scaled claw came crashing down from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was monstrous—like a mountain falling from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The claw grew larger and larger in everyone’s eyes, filling their vision with dread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then it slammed down—right on top of the ogre hero who had charged at Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ogre had barely turned to run, his face twisted in terror, when—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOOOOM!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The impact was apocalyptic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky cracked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a nuclear bomb had gone off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shockwave of raw power blasted outward, flattening everything in its path. The heavens themselves seemed to tear open, leaving behind a warped, glowing imprint of the dragon’s claw in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clouds parted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And silence fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ogre hero? Gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reduced to a smear of blood and shattered bone. Pulverized into nothing but a splatter of gore and meat paste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dead. Completely, utterly dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His blood painted the sky red for a moment—then faded, his soul already pulled back to the respawn point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his place now hovered a beast of legend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A green dragon, majestic and terrifying, its body stretching tens of thousands of feet across the sky. Its wings cast a shadow over the entire battlefield, blocking out the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It coiled in the air like a god descending from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A divine beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dragon god.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it had come at Ethan’s call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With just one appearance, it had silenced the entire battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its overwhelming presence crashed down like a tidal wave, freezing the blood in everyone’s veins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their hearts pounded wildly in their chests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump. Thump. Thump.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faces turned pale. Bodies trembled. Souls quaked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dared to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dared to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the air felt heavy—like it was bowing to the dragon’s will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marquis Lucan stood frozen beside Ethan, mouth agape, unable to process what he was seeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across from them, Pirate King Draven and his crew were just as stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Inferno Devils and the Mythic-tier Inferno Arch Devil hovering in the sky—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This... this is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Draven’s voice cracked, his entire body trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His men stared at the dragon like it was a nightmare made real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way...
