I Received System to Become Dragonborn

The Great Calamity’s body moved suddenly and before Erend and Eccar could fully comprehend its words, it launched itself forward in a blur of movement.

A shockwave followed in its wake as it dashed at them with terrifying speed, leaving a trail of dark red energy and flesh behind it like a bloody comet hurtling through the air. The ground beneath where it had stood cracked, and the air sizzled with the heat of its power.

Erend and Eccar barely had time to react. But their instinct kicked in fast, and both Dragonborn braced themselves, summoning their flames and earth Magic.

But the sheer force of the Calamity’s attack caught them off-guard for somone who have become much weaker and looks like in the brink of death.

Its claws slashed, razor-sharp, and the first strike forced them to block rather than counter.

CLANG!

Erend raised his forearm, flames coating his scales as he blocked the Calamity’s blow. Eccar twisted his body, dodging another swipe aimed at his chest, but the follow-up hit came fast, a brutal kick to his side that sent him skidding back across the blood-soaked ground.

The Great Calamity’s scales gleamed darkly under the crimson light. It was as hard as their own scale, and its eyes burned with an unnatural fire that definitely different from the fire in their eyes.

Its claws were sharper than they had anticipated, each slash coming with deadly force. Worse still, it moved with the same speed and strength as they did, if not faster.

Erend gritted his teeth then launching a counterattack with his claw that ignited in fire. He swung at the creature’s chest, aiming for a weak spot in its body but the Calamity blocked the strike effortlessly with its own claws, sparks flying from the clash.

Eccar roared while summoning the power of the earth and with a powerful stomp, he sent jagged spikes of stone erupting from the ground beneath the Calamity.

But it leaped high into the air, wings beating hard, dodging the attack and descending upon Eccar with terrifying speed.

SLASH!

The Calamity’s claws raked across Eccar’s arm and drawing his blood. Eccar growled in pain, staggering back, but he quickly recovered, slamming his fist at it and sending another shockwave of earth Magic towards the Calamity.

The Calamity was forced to dodge again, but it did so with unnerving agility.

Erend took the opening, flames bursting from his legs as he rocketed towards the Calamity and swinging his claws down with all his strength.

The claws connected with its shoulder, cutting deep into its scales, but the creature barely flinched. Instead, it turned with a savage snarl, grabbing Erend by the throat and lifting him off the ground.

"Pathetic!" the Calamity hissed, tightening its grip, but before it could crush Erend’s throat, Eccar came barreling in, ramming into the Calamity with the force of a battering ram, breaking its hold on Erend.

Erend fell back, gasping for air, and quickly rolled to his feet. Eccar and the Calamity exchanged blows at blinding speed, claws against claws, fists against scales. Each strike echoed like thunder in the chaotic battlefield.

Despite his strength, Eccar was being pushed back, the sheer relentless power of the Great Calamity overwhelming him. The Great Calamity then grab his arm.

Erend, recovering then charged back in, fire roaring around his body as he unleashed a torrent of fire at their enemy. The flames engulfed the Calamity, momentarily blinding it, but it emerged from the blaze unscathed, its scales shimmering.

It lunged at Erend again, claws raised, but Erend parried with his hands, locking them into a deadly struggle of strength.

With a roar, the Calamity lashed out, wings spread wide as it slammed both Dragonborn to the ground, sending them sliding across the blood-soaked battlefield.

Erend’s vision blurred as he crashed into the earth, but he forced himself to stand, his body screaming in pain. Eccar groaned, pushing himself up as well, blood dripping from fresh wounds. Their scales is being penetrated finally.

They were both panting, their bodies aching from the relentless onslaught. The Calamity was as strong as they were—maybe even stronger—and its speed and viciousness were proving to be more than they had anticipated.

Erend clenched his fists, flames flickering weakly as he exchanged a glance with Eccar. This was no ordinary enemy. The Great Calamity wasn’t just powerful, it was a twisted reflection of everything they were, and that realization gnawed at them.

"Its power..." Eccar muttered through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with worry. "It’s like fighting ourselves."

Erend nodded curtly. "Then we need to push harder."

The Great Calamity laughed darkly as it stared them down, its wings unfurling with a menacing grace.

"You are fools if you think you would defeat me as easy as any other enemies you’ve faced," it sneered and stepping forward again. "This world belongs to me. You’re only prolonging your suffering."

Erend and Eccar, bruised and bloodied, stood side by side, their determination unwavering despite the pain. They have to defeat this creature but every moment their fear is getting worse. It’s the feeling they haven’t been feeling in a very long time despite all thee enemies they had faced.

"You see now," the Great Calamity rasped. "my power is beyond anything you can comprehend. Even in this weakened state, you can’t defeat me."

It paused, letting the words sink in.

"I admit I made a mistake... I should have come for you both immediately, torn you apart the moment I sensed your presence. But instead, I indulged my usual methods, watching the world wither and die slowly. I wanted to savor it. But you—" its eyes narrowed, "you managed to glimpse into my essence. A mistake I won’t make again."

"Who are you, exactly?" Eccar demanded. "How can you have the power of a Dragonborn?"

The Great Calamity’s lips curled into a wicked smile.

"Because I AM a Dragonborn. A Dragonborn who learned that our power far exceeds what we are taught to believe. A Dragonborn who cast off the chains of morality and realized that we are meant for so much more. I broke free from the petty rules and limitations that hold you back!"

"We are meant to be protectors," Erend shot back. "We’re supposed to guard this world, not destroy it!"

The Great Calamity laughed.

"And you think these worlds are worth protecting? Look at them! Weaklings, all of them. Lesser creatures scurrying beneath us like insects, fearing the power they can’t comprehend. They are beneath us," it snarled. "Why should I waste my strength protecting those who are so far below me?"

Something inside Erend snapped. The Calamity’s words, its twisted view of the world, cut through him like a knife. His mind flashed to his family and the people he had fought to protect. His friends, his loved ones, the innocent lives that depended on him.

He couldn’t allow this abomination to belittle everything he stood for, everything he cared about.

His heart pounded as rage surged through him, hotter and more intense than ever before.

"You don’t get to say that my family, my friends, are meaningless."

Without warning, Erend thrust his hand forward, a bolt of fire shooting from his palm with tremendous force.
