[You brought me to a place away from the humans while also separating me from my army. That is a good plan but can you fight me alone?] Antares said with his hands behind his back.

"Woah, And you called me Arrogant," Haru chuckled at the Dragon Monarch.

[Of course, I have the right to be arrogant, if you want to be arrogant then earn it. The woman from before gave me quite a good fight so I would expect the same from you as powerful as you are,] Antares said with a smirk.

Haru nodded as the hot wind blew over between them letting their long flutter.

WHOOSH*

Haru appeared in front of Antares before the latter could even react and sent a punch from his right hand straight into Antares's gut.

BANG*

"GUH," Antares body bent as his spit came out of his mouth.

BANG* BOOOOOM*

'Fast and his punch pack a lot of power as well,' Antares thought as he flew away more than a kilometer with the force behind the punch, and the ground cracked into pieces kicking up a dust cloud.

After the dust cloud settled Haru was looking at Antares who was on the ground.

"What do you think? Do I have the right to be Arrogant?" Haru asked with a smirk.

Antares dusted his robes and looked at Haru who was still waiting for him.

Without answering him Antares flew straight at Haru instantly closing the distance between them.

Antares threw a punch with his right hand aiming at Haru's face. Haru moved his head to the left dodging the punch with a hairsbreadth.

WHOOSH*

Seeing this Antares threw a second punch but with his left hand aiming for Haru's face again. But Haru again dodged it by moving to the right and the punch only hit empty air as it sent shockwaves blowing away the dunes behind him.

WHOOSH*

Haru punched the side of Antares's face with his left hand causing him to lean on his right side.

BANG*

Then he quickly hit Antares right in the middle of his face with his right fist with full force forcing Antares back and left skid marks on the ground.

BANG*

Antares was currently bleeding. Antares wiped his nose and saw the blood on his finger he never thought that he will see his own blood so many times in the span of an hour. But this only made him want to fight more.

Antares lunged at Haru again with a left punch aiming at his chest with all of his strength, and Haru sidestepped to the right.

WHOOSH*

The punch could only hit empty air as Haru lifted his left leg kicking Antares straight in the gut.

"GAH," the force of the kick caused Antares to grunt, but before he can even do anything further Haru spun on the spot and kicked Antares in his chin with his right foot sending him flying again.

BANG*

Antares flipped himself in the air and landed on the ground again looking at Haru who had his arms crossed on his chest.

"You still haven't answered me," Haru said with a bored look on his face.

[HAHAHA, Let's do this You Bastard,] Antares laughed out loud as his armor got denser than before with his body being entirely covered in red scales and his body was covered in a red hue, with huge gauntlets that were covered in dark red fire.

The heat that was emitted from him caused the sand around him to melt turning into magma.

Haru still had his arms crossed in front of him while looking at him with his carefree expression.

WHOOOSH*

Antares appeared in front of Haru at an insane speed and punched his face.

Seeing the flaming fist coming his way didn't change Haru's face at all as he moved his body to the right dodging easily.

SWOOOSH* BANG* TSSSS*

The fire wave released from the punch melted the sand behind Haru turning it into magma.

Haru moved backward as Antares punched towards the left side of his face with his right hand. Haru dodged the attack again as he kept on moving backward as Antares chased after him punching wildly from the left and right continuously.

BOOOOOM* BOOOOOM* BOOOOOOM* BOOOOOOM*

The heat from the punches melted the sand turning the once desert into a magma pool.

Haru moved his head to the left dodging the right hook from Antares again. He has been dodging all of his attacks easily and he still had his hands crossed in front of him with a smirk on his face.

Antares's face was the opposite.

'This bastard is toying with me,' Antares thought as his anger boiled. If someone looked from far away it would look like that Antares had the upper hand because Haru can only dodge his attacks while being on the back foot. But….

The situation is quite the opposite as Antares was being played with this whole time as Haru could attack him at any moment but chose not to.

For Haru predicting Antares's movement was too easy it was also the reason, Antares couldn't hit him once yet.

And Antares wasn't having fun with it, He appeared in front of Haru at a blinding speed again.

[Human you are taking me too lightly,] Antares shouted as he gathered a big ball of fire on his left fist sending it straight to Haru's face.

Haru lifted his right leg and kicked Antares hand breaking his scale armor and his arm along with it. The kick knocked Antares's hand towards the sky.

BANG* SHATTER*

The ball of fire left the fist and went up then...

BOOOOOOM*

The fire ball burst open in the sky painting the ground in a red hue as Haru looked at Antares with his hands still folded on his chest.

"What if I am?" Haru scoffed at Antares causing the latter to become enraged.

[DAMN YOU, DON'T GET AHEAD OF YOURSELF,] Antares shouted as he punched at Haru with his right hand again.

Haru smiled as he unfolded his hands and used his left palm to push Antares's hand away with ease.

Antares threw a punch with his left hand this time Haru used his right forearm to redirection his fist by hitting Antares's wrist.

Antares's anger peaked as he punched with his right hand and haru dodged it again.

[FIGHT ME PROPERLY DAMN IT,] Antares roared in anger as he was about to punch again.

"So you want a beating? you should've asked from the start," Haru smirked as he punched Antares right in the face with his right hand which was covered in a white bubble before he could even react.

BANNNNNNG*

Antares's nose was broken as his head was knocked back but he moved and punched at Haru again who dodged it again and hit Antares in his Guts with a left hook.

BANGGGGG*

[ACK,] Antares felt the air knocked out of his lungs.

But he moved again and punched towards the side of Haru's head with his left hand.

WHOOOOSH*

Haru leaned forward and let the punch pass by above him then he saw Antares's knee coming towards his face so he flipped backward avoiding the knee.

Seeing Haru who was in the middle of a flip Antares moved forward trying to take advantage of the situation and punch him with his right hand.

Haru placed his hand on the ground and bent his legs kicking Antares right in his gut again with both of his feet covered in the white bubble.

BAAAAAANNNNNNG* BOOOOOOOOM* SHATTER* CRACK*

[GAH,] Antares groaned as blood came out of his mouth and nose.

As soon as it connected the armor on Antares broke into pieces and he felt his ribs being crushed as well poking into his lungs. And he was launched more than a few kilometers in the air.

Haru stood back on his legs after a beautiful somersault that any gymnast would approve of. He looked at Antares who was flying down straight at him.

"My My," Haru smiled but his eyes weren't smiling in the slightest. He nearly lost both Jin-ah and Queresha who were still in a weak condition at the moment.

His short-sightedness caused Queresha to go as far as burning her life force to increase her mana reserves if he was a little late it would've been too late.

He was angry at not being more alert which caused this incident to happen. If anyone of them died he didn't know what he would do.

Just thinking about it….

His hand was covered in a black sheen and then a white bubble covered his fist as he moved his right hand to behind his head on the left side.
