Inside the cavern, the air was already heavy with clashing domains.
Navrel did not wait.
The demonic dragon opened its massive jaws, and black fire gathered in its throat.
The flames twisted unnaturally, mixed with thick corruption.
"Die," Navrel said coldly.
He unleashed [Corruption Breath].
A massive stream of black dragon fire shot forward, melting stone and cracking the ground where it passed.
Dahlia smirked and didn't retreat.
Instead, she bent her knees slightly and launched upward. Her body twisted mid-air as the corrupted flames passed beneath her.
"Too slow," she said calmly.
She flew straight toward Navrel, her body cutting through the demonic pressure.
Her claws glowed with bright sky energy. "[Sky Dragon Claw]."
She slashed downward, wind and lightning exploding from her fingertips.
Navrel's eyes sharpened.
The dragon raised one massive claw and countered instantly. "[Shadow Claw Rend]."
Dark energy formed around its talons as the two attacks collided.
