BATTLE OF TRUE DRAGONS
What's going on?! What are they doing?!
What does it look like? They're fighting a ferocious battle.
Then Dai and Hadlar's clashes are causing this gust of heat?
It's not just a gust. It's highly concentrated energy.
They're completely in their own world.
We escaped here before we got burned.
What's going on? How does this sort of thing even happen?
A Battle of True Dragons.
-Oh? -What's that?
You don't know?
This is truly the Underworld's infamous Battle of True Dragons recreated.
That sounds quite interesting.
In the distant past...
the two most powerful Dragons in the Underworld...
finally decided to determine who was stronger.
Velzar, the Abyss Dragon...
and Vorikus, the Lightning Dragon.
Evenly matched, the clash between the two was truly savage.
Their Auras and flame breath and Magic Power collided,
and the super-heated ground was laid waste.
Their battle created a field so tempestuous
it drained the life of any who stood in it.
Those who approached were incinerated.
In the end, this ultimate duel of pure power
was won by Velzar.
And he became the Abyss Dragon King.
Since then, this battle is called the Battle of True Dragons,
and is revered as the most intense duel in history.
Pay close attention, Killvearn.
This isn't something one sees every day.
Only when both sides are extremely powerful and evenly matched
does such a thing ever happen.
To think that those two would show me such a battle.
They're both fighting with all their might.
That energy must be spilling over, creating that field around them.
How can you be so calm?! Dai's like that and you're not helping?!
As you can see, no one can approach those two.
It's almost as though their will is keeping everyone at bay.
At least I think so.
Then why isn't Dai using his sword?!
Hadlar isn't either.
Ever since that heat field appeared, they've been fighting hand-to-hand.
I think they both know that drawing their weapons...
will signify the end of their duel.
Dai!
I'm not waiting! My Medroa can blow away any heat!
I'll hit Hadlar with this!
What are you doing?!
Don't, Popp. This is their duel.
This isn't the time for platitudes! Look!
Just standing there is draining their stamina!
Dai may be a Dragon Knight, but between little Dai and that huge Hadlar,
it's obvious who has more!
I don't care if anyone says it's unfair! I'm helping Dai!
Wait, Popp!
Not you too, Princess!
Dai wants this duel. That why we shouldn't interfere.
He's just naive.
He should just ignore Hadlar's condition!
Isn't his inability to what makes Dai our Dai?
Our Dai?
I've been thinking about it.
About the power of Dai's soul.
I thought it was Courage, but Courage is the power of your soul.
Yeah... Right.
In that case, what's his power?
Perhaps Dai's power is that naivety you mentioned.
Huh? How is that...?
His kindness and innocence... That clarity of heart...
Yes. His pure heart.
Dai was raised on Dermline Island, an island of monsters.
So he doesn't discriminate or hold any preconceptions of anyone.
It allows him to treat everyone equally and naturally.
Isn't that his greatest trait?
It's what allowed us to all become friends.
It allowed Hyunckel and Crocodine to become our allies.
The reason we're all here now is thanks to the power of Dai's soul.
So if Dai sensed anything within Hadlar that made him accept this duel,
then it's our duty to respect that.
At least that's what I think.
What's wrong?!
I can't beat him like this!
I... I have to use my strongest attack against him!
His sword!
That's the face.
Whenever you're about to do something unbelievable, you make that face.
It's become my favorite face of yours.
It's beginning. The final clash.
The next attack will decide this battle.
Don't make outlandish predictions! How can you tell that?!
Because I think that field...
The energy of that battlefield sides with the victor.
Oh?
That super-heated field that surrounds them
is maintained because their energy is balanced.
That keeps it at bay and makes it grow.
Therefore, when that balance is tipped...
all of that energy flows to the weaker side.
The weaker side...
In other words, the loser.
That's the most dangerous part of the Battle of True Dragons.
When the deciding blow is struck,
all that accumulated energy flows to the side that is struck.
The loser faces certain death.
How scary. I'd never have a duel like that.
Scary, scary!
But, in this case, Dai's disadvantage grows.
Hadlar's finishing attack will be his Ultra Combustion Slash.
But as for Dai...
his greatest attack is his Avan Strash used with his Draconic Aura or a spell.
If Zapple is his strongest spell, then his Magic Sword is nothing to fear.
Between Avan Strash and Ultra Combustion Slash, the outcome is obvious.
That's not something he'd overlook.
So what will he do?
Avan Strash...
TIGER SHATTER FIST
AVAN STRASH
Avan Strash... So that's your choice.
The attack took my life once, and even after Avan's death,
it was passed on to his successors.
Indeed, it's the perfect attack to end this battle.
But you can't win with an Avan Strash!
Once you lose, this battlefield...
I know! All of this heat will flow to whoever loses this clash!
So you already realized.
But I, no, Avan Strash won't lose!
Because I developed this to fight Dark King Vearn!
This is a new Avan Strash!
What?!
A new Strash?!
It must be the new attack Dai developed in his training!
I really wanted to save this until the fight with Vearn.
But that'll be meaningless if I lose here!
So I'm going to use it now!
You're not one to try to bluff your way through a situation.
Interesting! Then show me this new Avan Strash of yours!
If it's just some silly attack then my mighty strike will shatter it!
Oh no! Get farther away!
Don't be ridiculous! We can't leave at a time like this!
Then at least get down!
Here goes, Hadlar!
His stance is the same.
It's slightly deeper than usual.
Avan Strash Arrow!
That's his new Strash?!
It's a normal Strash!
What is this?! What makes this an arrow?!
It's merely a breeze compared to my Ultra Combustion Slash!
I'll blow it away!
Now!
Avan Strash Break!
What?!
He's catching up...
...with the first Strash!
Avan Strash...
Cross!
That's Dai! Dai used his new super attack!
The Battle of True Dragons has been decided.
He won! Dai won!
Did you see that?! That unbelievably powerful new Strash!
So that's the new super attack that Dai created.
Avan Strash... Cross.
I see. Avan Strash has the Arrow Type where you launch Aura,
and the Break Type where you charge the target.
But to combine the two...
Combine the two?
What do you mean, Hyunckel?
I mean he catches up to his Arrow Type with his Break Type,
and detonates both Strashes simultaneously at the moment of impact.
The upward impact of the Arrow Type and the downward impact of the Break Type
cross at the enemy's chest.
The overlapping force is probably over five times that of a normal Strash.
Over five times?!
But to time the impact of the two attacks perfectly
requires unbelievable instincts.
To predict an enemy's movements and time two attacks is beyond even me.
It's a super attack only Dai can pull off!
A super attack!
But it looks like Dai has spent all his Aura.
Hadlar's finished, isn't he?
Yeah. It seems so.
That tremendous energy that surrounded them...
the fact that it's gone means it hit him with that Strash Cross.
Dai! Well done!
Dai! He's still...!
It's his will!
Dai!
Unbelievable! Hadlar shouldn't have a shred of Aura left!
All of their Aura were blown away in that clash!
Where does he get that strength?!
A Life Blade?!
What?!
Hadlar is converting his own life and making it his sword!
Even though he knows what it'll cost him!
Dai!
They were all defeated... My Royal Guard.
Hym... Albinass... Sigma...
You've all done well.
I will join you all soon.
In retrospect, the Six Legion Commanders of the Dark Army were all mighty.
But they couldn't defeat Dai and his friends.
It's because, as their commander, I had nothing but greed and self-preservation.
The fact that you all came together and risked your lives for me
feels like the greatest proof that I was able to reach great heights.
In the very end, I was blessed by my servants.
Now it's time!
I shall answer your loyalty with this strike!
Oh no! It feels like Hadlar's will is totally overpowering Dai's!
Getting hit by that super attack wasn't enough to defeat him!
I can tell that this strike contains the will of the Royal Guard, too!
If we get hit, it'll all be over!
Dai, I'll...
Don't, Popp!
I won't forgive anyone who helps me here! Not even you!
This battle...
For just this battle...
I need you to let me fight alone!
D-Don't be stupid!
You don't have that sort of strength left!
That last attack used up all of your Aura!
But look!
Hadlar is using the remaining bit of his life for one final attack!
It contains his will and the unfulfilled wishes of the Royal Guard!
You can't win with any normal attack!
And with all of your Aura spent, you can't use Strash Cross either!
That's enough! Just leave the rest to us, Dai!
I still have...
one attack I want to try.
Besides, Hadlar's not the only one...
carrying the wishes of his friends as he fights!
Everyone's always with me!
Master and Grampa and Dad, too!
I won't lose!
I'm going to prove their belief in me!
That's why...
I can't lose to Hadlar here!
I really am just a coward.
Why couldn't I believe in someone this strong?!
You've spoken well!
But what can you do?!
You barely have any Aura left!
I can do this!
Zapple!
To be honest I was clumsy
omoeba boku wa bukiyou de
And it took me forever to get here
shouganaikurai tomawarishita
I used even loneliness as a weapon
kodokukannsura mo buki ni shite
I searched the dungeon for a simple answer
tannjun na kotae wo sagashita dannjon
Even if I cast aside Rightness and kindness
tadashisa yasashisa nagedashite mo
I just want to be there for you
tada hitori kimi no mikata de itai
To call out your name
kimi no namae wo yobu koto ga
Is harder than any magic spell
ari to arayuru mahou yori muzukashikute
Even though you're so close to me
konnani mo chikaku ni itanoni
I love you
aishiteiru
I finally realized it
imasara kizuitanosa
To call out your name
kimi no namae wo yobu tame ni
Must be the reason I was born
boku wa kitto umarete kitannda
I shake off the clinging night
shigamitsuku yoru furihodoite
And go to see you
ai ni iku
Right now to where you are
ima sugu kimi no moto e
Dai won the Battle of True Dragons.
But Hadlar rose again through sheer force of will.
With the wishes of the fallen Royal Guard Hadlar readies a mighty attack.
Against him, Dai readies his Magic Sword.
With his Aura spent, can Dai defeat Hadlar?

"The Last Attack"
The adventure continues!
