Ashen Dragon

Goraz Dera was also taken aback by the sudden burst of speed from the Red Dragon Emperor, but she quickly manipulated the Destructive Divine Thunder to catch up, letting out an angry hiss: "It's useless, Variant Dragon, stop making futile struggles! This is the price of desecrating the gods!"

And the torrent of lightning closely followed the Red Dragon Emperor, like a shadow accompanying its form, while Cassius maneuvered through the intertwining lightning, continuously dodging until he eventually plunged headlong into the dense clouds.

"Do you think you can escape my pursuit this way?"

Goraz Dera sneered, several bolts of lightning shot towards the clouds, and the heavy clouds dispersed instantly.

Assessment: This Red Dragon is called the "Crimson Emperor" by dragon scholars, and in just a few decades, he built an incomparably strong empire, casting his shadow over the vast lands of the Anzeta Great Wilderness.

Under the joint witness of the "Platinum Dragon God" Bahamut and the "Five-Colored Dragon Queen" Tiamat, this Red Dragon donned the diadem symbolizing supreme power, crowning himself as emperor.

Some revere him, seeing him as a savior and liberator; others despise him, regarding him as a heinous evil dragon.

But without a doubt, the power of this Red Dragon is awe-inspiring; he has incinerated the notorious "Voice of the Night" Mortifael to ashes, brought down the famous "Wings of Silver" Osedro from the Melwood Clan from the skies, and even devoured a Giant Spirit Pasha in the Fire Elemental Plane.

Now, facing the chaos on the Fianso Continent, he is lurking within a volcano, quietly accumulating power—those pale golden pupils full of greed, no one knows to what extent his ambition will reach.
