Leo The Dragon Heir

Chapter 13: Second seal, broken

Leo was aggravated. The sight of the people who killed his mom, made his blood boil.

“…YOU WILL PAY!” he exclaimed.

A cold, airy aura started flaring from his body. His eyes turned red and he began to growl.

“What’s going on?” one of them asked.

“Lando: Wind blade,” he said, as a gust of wind in form of a sword was directed towards Leo.

Leo skipped through the attack, suddenly appearing in front of the man.

“Spa-”

“Too slow,” Leo interrupted, stabbing him in his left abdomen.

“They did not tell us he was this strong,” said another of the men, as he moved backwards.

Leo’s attention shifted towards them. He shuffled quickly, reappearing in front of the second man.

“Flare: Gunshot,” Leo released a spike of fire from the tip of his sword, which passed through the chest of the second man.

Leo unconsciously brought down two men in an instant. The anger within him made his mana sip out of his sealed orb.

“LEO!” Darwin screamed. “Back to earth, Leo.”

Darwin’s attention was all on Leo’s fight. He was worried about him. As soon as he turned towards Leo,

“You’ve underestimated me, Lapo,” the man who faced Darwin said, stabbing him at his back with an iron spear.

Darwin spewed out blood, falling to the ground. He slowly turned his face, glaring at Lapo.

“Climax: Cloud of fire,” Darwin said, releasing a cloud of fire over the dungeon.

This caught the attention of Leo and the remaining man who Leo faced.

“Where is this power from?” Lapo asked, confused.

Suddenly, rain of fire started falling. It burnt the man who faced Leo and fell right on top of Lapo.

“Master Darwin,” screamed Leo, after seeing Darwin on the ground, bleeding.

Leo rushed to Darwin, tearing a piece of his shirt and wrapping his wound.

“We need to go back, right now,” said Leo as he helped Darwin stand up.

Leo placed Darwin’s hand around his neck as the slowly walked out of the dungeon.

“Did you think that’s all it takes to bring me down?” scoffed Lapo as he brushed his shoulder.

Leo and Darwin paused. They were stunned.

“How did you survive that?” Leo asked, surprised.

Lapo burst into laughter.

“What do you take me for? You really did underestimate me,” he spoke, boastfully.

“Who- who are you really?” Darwin questioned, groaning and stuttering in pain.

“Be careful,” Leo whispered to Darwin as Darwin refused his hand from Leo’s shoulder.

“You will soon find out-” Lapo replied. “Spike: Water thorns.”

Lapo released a large amount of thorns made of water from the ground, inflicting more injury on both Leo and Darwin.

“Lentus: Rapid Heal,” Leo casted, but it was to no avail.

“Sprada: Flare blade,” Darwin spoke, lifting his hand slowly.

He created a large blade of fire, which was meant to hit Lapo-

“Wallo: Aqua defense,” Lapo said, creating a water wall, defending him from Darwin’s attack.

As Darwin was about to cast another magic spell, he fell to his knees.

“Master Darwin!” Leo exclaimed, holding Darwin in his arms.

Suddenly, Lapo began to chuckled.

“I think it’s high time I put all this to an en-”

“What exactly do you want from us?” Leo questioned, trying to control his fury.

‘’What?” Lapo chuckled. “What do we want from you guys. Isn’t the answer obvious? YOU.”

Leo and Darwin looked at themselves. They were confused. What did he mean by he wanted Leo?

“I-I don’t understand,” Leo stammered.

“You will get to understand when you come with us- Void: Water Bind,” Lapo persisted, binding Leo in a chain of water.

“Let me go, let me go,” Leo struggled, trying to break free from the bondage.

Lapo chuckled as he lifted Leo into the air with his telekinesis. Darwin tried his best to stand up but he was too weak. His magic level had reduced because of his loss of blood.

“What do you need from him?” Darwin groaned.

Lapo glared at Darwin and walked up to him. He bent down to his ears and whispered some words to him.

After talking to Darwin for a while, Lapo chuckled as he stood up.

“Now you understand,” Lapo said, as he kicked Darwin across the room.

Darwin was too stunned to talk. He was too weak to retaliate.

“STOP IT!” Leo screamed, trying to still break out from the bondage.

Lapo ignored Leo and continued to beat up Darwin.

Leo’s breathe suddenly became heavy. He felt a sharp pain in his abdomen as he began to feel light headed. He could feel as if a heavy load laid on his chest.

Suddenly, a gush of magical aura exploded from his chest. He could feel a power that he had never felt before.

Darwin was just laying on the ground, beaten and bleeding. He watched as Leo’s magical aura increased.

“The second seal must be broken,” he murmured to himself.

“Where is this strength coming from,” Lapo asked in confusion.

In a split of a second, Leo broke through the water binds and disappeared into thin air.

Lapo was frightened. How was Leo able to break through one of his most powerful spells?

“Pick-a-boo,” Leo said, suddenly appearing in front of Lapo.

Before Lapo could make a move, Leo had released a gush of wind, throwing Lapo across the dungeon.

Lapo was able to resist but he was injured. He was about to release another attack but Leo was faster than him.

“Turbine: Iron Tornado,” Leo said, releasing a spear of wind, which penetrated through the heart of Lapo, rendering him dead.

Darwin was shocked at the sight of Lapo’s dead body and Leo’s new power. But before he could tell Leo how happy he was to see the power, he passed out.

“Master Darwin, Master Darwin,” Leo called out, as he rushed to him and casted a healing spell, which helped to minimize the bleeding.

As he carried Darwin out of the dungeon, it began to cave in but luckily, Leo was able to get out safely with Darwin around him.
