An Extra’s POV

'Am I… am I seriously going to die here…?!'

A Dragon's instinct was one of the most powerful things to ever exist in the world of H'Trae.

They could sense just how powerful a person or Skill was. Even the energy in the air was not immune to their notice thanks to this gift.

They were immensely perceptive being.

That was precisely why The Dragon Commander's face was warped in terror.

He knew deep down… that if the blade connected to his heart, or sliced off his head… he was as good as dead!

He didn't want that!

Even as a proud Dragon, a chunk of his tail had been blown off already, and he was still recoiling from the pain.

Dragons were considered very invincible.

They hardly had the opportunity to feel something like pain.

His mind was yet to completely process the sensation, and his body hadn't yet acclimated to its sting.

Adding that to the innate fear of death, caused by the approaching blade…

"Keuk!"

… The Dragon Commander was at his wits' end.

And so, he did the only reasonable thing he could.

~VWUUSH!~

He activated his [Absolute Spatial Magic], prepared to teleport a far distance from the Hero.

Unfortunately, he wouldn't be fast enough to escape.

He knew that already.

He could use his Spatial Magic to redirect the sword that neared him, but even that was rendered impossible thanks to the warped space around the blade.

As a result…

"Tch!"

… The Dragon Commander raised one of his hands and reached for the Divine Sword.

He knew blocking was useless, as the blade would simply slice through all obstacles like butter.

However, by letting his arm be sliced off first, it would give him enough time to escape.
