Ryuunosuke vs Siegfried
Finale
Ryuunosuke dropped his guard, letting his arms sway lamely to his sides, and tilted his head invitingly, looking practically defenseless as a challenge to the dragon. If he read his personality right, there was no way that the dragon wouldn't understand and react. For Ryuu, this was just a ploy to further his enjoyment - he'd gotten a taste of the dragons troublesome and so-far impenetrable defense, so now he wanted to test out if he had the offense to match it.
Siegfried nonchalantly fixed his hair as the Human concentrated on taunting him, using his hand to push his hair up, styling it in a way that prevented it from distracting him. "I'm far too annoyed to continue this little facade. If you're so fixed in pursuing your own demise, I shall comply to your wishes and take this play a little more seriously." The glow of his red, dragonic eyes seemed specially threatening as his golden aura started to expand, acting as an extension to his body and being covered by ripples that seemed to distort space on itself - a connection to his former prison and current weapon: The treasure hoard of Fafnir. He barely gave the human any time to think before this strange power demonstrated its might: Dozens of weapons were immediately impulsioned from the ripples towards the human, acting as projectiles that, while far from being as fast and deadly as the ones his father was able to shot from his mouth, could still cause a considerable damage while used against enemies that didn't have at least a mid ranked defensive ability due to the sheer quantity of projectiles.
"Thanks for playing along anyway!" thought Ryuunosuke, laughing maniacally as he charged headlong into the fray. His instincts guiding him, he wove through the hail of weapons heading towards him, coming off with a few scratches that would have hindered the movement of a normal human, though thanks to his own regeneration, he managed to keep moving. A few seconds in, he was already aware that as things were there was no coming through this unscathed, so he decided to switch things up.
An incoming spear heading towards him touched air as he twisted to the side and grabbed the weapon, using it to bat aside the rest of the ones incoming even as he made his way towards Sieg. There was no style or grace in his movements, simply a beast like efficiency that held no knowledge of nor respect for what was likely a sacred treasure in his hand.
At first, Ryuunosuke's crazy attempt of evading the weapons barely attracted Siegfried's attention - after all he didn't really need to care about these minor weapons as his father gathered such an absurd amount of these weapons that even If he maintained the bombardment for a few more days there would still be projectiles to spare - but that all changed in the next second, as the human dared to take one of his spears an used it as a club to deflect other weapons, instantly triggering the Dragon's wrath - A human touching his treasures was something unforgivable, even if he didn't care for the treasure.
He immediately leapt towards the daring human, his legs pressing the ground with such overwhelming strength that it instantly formed a small crater as he impulsioned himself towards the boy, his left leg moving towards the human's torso, completely exerting the might of his superhuman strength, carrying such a force that even the strongest barrier of a defense focused middle ranker couldn't possibly hope to stop - the force of a true high ranked Dragon, the species that boosted the strongest natural physical strength.
"FINALLY!" Ryuunosuke's roar resounded loudly as the dragon shot towards him with a sudden burst of speed. It took some time, but it looked like he finally got the lizard angry enough to actually attack him for once. As fun as the previous exchanges were, they were also getting repetitive; this was just what he needed to switch things up.
"Might have bitten off more than I can chew tho-" that was as far as that line of thought got before Sieg was upon him, moving so fast that he barely had time to react. Focusing chakra on his arm, he pushed back against the blow, his gut telling him that if he tried to block that he'd be a stain on the ground, and got sent flying a few dozen meters backwards for his trouble.
"Damn that hurts like a bitch," he thought, skidding through the dirt on landing. He checked the condition of his arm; purple all over and stinging like he'd stuck his hand in a beehive. Still, he managed to redirect most of the blows force away from him. His arm would take a few minutes to heal completely, and in that time he wouldn't be able to use it like he wanted, however, and he was acutely aware that his playmate probably wouldn't give him that time easily.
Neverthless, he grinned. His blood was pumping and his eyes were sharper than ever. It was situations like this that he lived for after all.
Siegfried didn't need to think to continue with his assault, his instincts did all the job, directly making him notice how the human avoided most of the damage of his blow and made him instinctively use his aura to stop his charge, stopping him from wasting time in the air, unable to move, and giving him the foothold needed to once more impulse himself towards the human, his eyes glowing in a dangerous way - a sign of how truly pissed he was - in despite of maintaining some rationality. His right hand immediately moved while forming a claw, seemingly intending to grip the human's head and slam it into the ground.
"Oh man you're angry now are-" he was cut-off as Siegfried once again jettisoned towards him, looking well and truly enraged. Once more, Ryuu took the seemingly reckless route and rather than move to avoid the claw aiming to squeeze his face like an orange, he stepped in quickly, shoulder first, ramming it into the dragon's gut.
The Dragon, in turn, didn't even try to completely avoid the blow, merely adjusting his position while directly using his golden aura - now fully manifested - to weaken the blow to the point where it was negligible and give him the opportunity to attack, directly impulsioning his knee towards the human that was now trapped inside his ideal attack range, with too little space between then to once more completely dodge his blows.
"Ah fuck," was his single thought as a knee connected solidly with his chest. Without much time to dodge the blow, he settled with mitigating the force by catching the leg as it hit. He still felt a few ribs cracking from the impact, but it could have been a lot worse.
"Eh? You're still alive after that..?" Siegfried sighed in a clear display of annoyance, indifferently stretching as if to purposefully give time to the human to recover his composure. "A human body is so inconvenient. Guess I'll have to take this play a little more seriously." The nonchalance in the dragon's voice almost passed the impression of indifference as he talked, something that could easily be dismissed due to how a stream of smoke was coming out of his nostrils - a sight that could hardly be considered as normal, considering how he was currently humanoid - as flames started to emerge from his skin. He was clearly once more about to leap towards the human in an even more violent way - going to the point of preparing his legs to impulse himself - before he suddenly stopped, as if magically bound by something, and his face contorted as it clearly demonstrated rage.
"HOW DARE YOU!?" He screamed in such a sudden way that it almost looked as if he had gone insane, his golden aura quickly spreading through the area to collect most of the weapons he used as projectiles in an instant - a desperate attempt of recovering most of his treasures before the magic casted by Tsumiki got a hold of him. "GRIMMOND, I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" He managed to once more yell before the glow around his body got stronger, eclipsing his body for an instant before it vanished together with it - obviously dragged away by a spell
Silence was all that was heard, as Ryuu, previously ready for the fight of a lifetime, stared at the empty space in front of him. It took him a few moments before he realized what had happened, and then . . .
"Pft . . . AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Throwing his head back, Ryuu laughed so hard his (broken) ribs hurt, any disappointment he felt at the fight ending so abruptly drowned out by the utter hilarity of the situation. "O-oh God, I should've brought a camera! T-the look on his face- BWAHAHAHAHA!"
After a few more rounds of laughter, Ryuu finally calmed down. With his opponent gone and with nothing else to do, Ryuunosuke decided it would be best to head out. As he began walking however, his eye caught something glinting in the sun, and he paused in his tracks. From a distance, he could clearly see what it was, and his grin widened.
It appeared the dragon hadn't succeeded in collecting all of his treasures. Here and there were a few weapons littered across the ground, at the very edge of where their fight had taken place.
"Don't mind if I do~" he muttered, walking towards them, a devilish smirk on his face.
