Apocalypse King: The Return of Lucian-Chapter 42: The Monster Unleashed

Chapter 42: The Monster Unleashed

The battlefield was eerily silent for a moment—just the whispering wind carrying the scent of blood and dust. Then—

BOOM!

Dorian charged.

His massive frame tore through the ruined streets, the sheer force of his movements leaving craters in the ground. Lucian stood his ground, eyes glowing with anticipation.

THOOM!

Dorian's fist came down like a meteor. Lucian sidestepped at the last second, the shockwave from the impact sending cars flying and buildings trembling.

Lucian grinned. "You hit hard, I'll give you that. But you're slow."

Dorian's eyes narrowed. He wasn't going to play Lucian's game. Instead, he took a deep breath—and something changed.

Lucian felt it immediately. The air grew heavy, a crushing force pressing down on him. The ground beneath Dorian's feet cracked. His veins pulsed with a golden glow, his muscles growing even more defined.

Titan's Wrath—Second Awakening.

Lucian raised an eyebrow. "Now we're talking."

Dorian disappeared.

Lucian's instincts screamed.

CRASH!

Lucian barely managed to block in time as Dorian's fist collided with his blade. The sheer impact sent a shockwave rippling outward, demolishing the street. Lucian was launched backward, flipping mid-air before landing gracefully.

His arms throbbed. Even with his insane strength, Dorian's enhanced power was on another level.

Lucian rolled his shoulders. "You've been holding back on me, huh?"

Dorian smirked. "I wanted to see if you were worth taking seriously."

Lucian chuckled. "And?"

Dorian's smirk disappeared. "You are."

Lucian exhaled, his blood boiling with excitement. "Then let's stop messing around."

His aura exploded, waves of red energy crackling around him. The sky darkened, as if the world itself was reacting to the power being unleashed. His crimson eyes burned brighter than ever.

Lucian vanished.

Dorian barely had time to react before—

SLASH!

A deep cut tore across his chest. Blood sprayed, but he didn't flinch.

Lucian appeared behind him, his blade gleaming. "You may be a titan—"

BANG!

Lucian's kick landed squarely in Dorian's back, sending him crashing through three buildings. Debris rained down.

Lucian smirked. "But I'm the monster you can't stop."

From the rubble, a low chuckle rose. Dorian stood, his wound already healing. His eyes burned with a golden fury.

"This fight isn't over."

Lucian licked the blood from his lip, grinning. "I was hoping you'd say that."

The battle was far from finished.
