(Third Person POV)
"Hmph." Acnologia said, "I have heard enough of you. As impressive as your power is, it will not be enough."
Without missing a beat, Jason aimed at Acnologia, the God-Killer's right arm morphing into a massive cannon gathering an immense amount of Black Light and magic power. It was so much that Acnologia was intrigued by it.
"Blacklight CannonxDarkmoon Cannon: "
The ground began to shake due to how much magic power was being charged. The cannon was gathering an immense amount of power that a massive orb began to form on the end of the barrel. This was happening as the entirety of the God-Killer's body was finishing self-repairing.
"Very well." Acnologia said as stayed still, "I shall take that attack. If it damages me, I will commend you."
"Divine End"
Jason fired off the attack, shooting a massive beam of black light and silver energy at Acnologia who didn't intend to move. The attack hit the Dragon King head on, causing a massive explosion that rivaled that of Acnologia's breath attack. It shook the earth violently, adding to the cataclysmic effects of their battle.
The shockwave was powerful enough to send the God-Killer reeling back several hundred meters. The massive blast of white had blinded Jason, even when being inside the Mecha.
As the explosion subsides, Acnologia emerged, dispersing the smoke and flames. His entire body was tattered, cut up, and bleeding.
"Kukuku!!" He laughed as he extended his wings, "Magnificent!! Such power!! But as I said before....."
In an instant, Acnologia had lunged at the God-Killer, swiping his claws at the Mecha, completely ripping apart its left arm. Jason had noticed his claws were enhanced by his magic power, adding destructive power to his already strong physical prowess.
"It is not enough!!!!" Acnologia bellowed, "I shall strip away your shell of steel and rip your flesh apart, Jason!!!"
The God-Killer morphed his remaining hand into a massive sword and swung it at Acnologia, the blade enhanced by the black light. The sword hit Acnologia on his side, digging through his scales and into his flesh, catching the Dragon King off-guard.
"Take that, you fuckface!" Jason growled
"This is nothing." The Dragon King said
Acnologia then grabbed ahold of the God-Killer, grasping it tightly as he opened his mouth, charging up magic power, preparing a breath attack.
"Shit!" Jason said, "This is bad..."
He tried to pry the blade out of Acnologia's body but it was stuck. He looked to see that the cut caused by the blade was tightly closed, preventing the sword to free itself.
"It's stuck?!" Jason said, "Did he close his wound?! Shit!!"
As Acnologia was about to fire off the breath attack, aimed at the God-Killer's chest, Jason did something uncalled for.
He detached his right arm, leaving the sword arm stuck to the Dragon King's flesh. Then, he morphed several boosters into the front side of the Mecha, firing off magic power to propel himself backward. It was successful, but with the sacrifice of several chunks of the God-Killer to be ripped off due to Acnologia's grasp.
As this happened, Acnologia fired off the breath attack, shooting at the ground instead of the Mecha. This caused a massive explosion that further flung the Mecha away, crashing into the ground but somehow straightening itself up in the air with its boosters.
"Shit." Jason said, "That was close...."
The God-Killer was heavily damaged and Jason was well aware of this. Both its arms were missing, several chunks of its body were destroyed, and its left leg was still repairing itself.
Jason watched the massive cloud of flames and smoke to disperse as Acnologia emerged through it, taking the sword arm that Jason had sacrificed out of his body.
"Tch..." Acnologia said, "I must commend you, Jason. You truly have done something nobody was capable of doing....you wounded me....."
Suddenly, the sword arm began to glow brightly as it was in Acnologia's hand. It then exploded violently, the blast hitting the Dragon King straight in the face.
"That's not all!" Jason growled
The God-Killer bowed down, summoning several massive railgun cannons on its back, charging up dark energy.
"God-Killer Bullets: Piercing Rays"
The cannons fired off thin beams of energy that shot straight at Acnologia who was staggered by the explosion, hitting him on the body, face, and wings. The attack was meant to pierce through the Dragon King but his scales and body were too strong. Jason had deduced at that moment that those attacks were not strong enough to do their job.
"Shit." Jason said, "The God-Killer is losing power....no matter how much ethernano I draw from my surroundings, It's all for naught.....the core is running out of charge...."
Acnologia immediately recovered from the onslaught, lunging at the Mecha and ramming straight into it.
"Futile!!" He bellowed, "I have given you courtesy enough, Jason! I shall now destroy this piece of metal, you alongside with it!!!"
"Not if I do it first!!!!" Jason responded, "Felicity! Eject! Activate God-Killer Self-Destruction Sequence!!"
Suddenly, on the back part of the God-Killer's hull, an opening appeared and Jason was flung out of the Mecha at tremendous speed.
Acnologia noticed this right away and looked up as his claws were dug into the Mecha's steel.
"You...." He said
"Yea, Me." Jason said as he crossed his arms
He was suddenly covered in a dark spherical barrier as he floated in midair.
"Huh?" Acnologia said, "What..."
The Mecha then began to tremble violently and glowed brightly, similar to the sword arm that exploded on the Dragon King.
"God-Killer: Self Destruction"
Without any time to react, The Dragon King was engulfed in a massive bright white explosion that dwarfed him completely. The power of this explosion was strong enough to cause a massive ripple on the earth that spanned several dozen kilometers in diameter. The air shook violently as the shockwave hit the spherical barrier Jason was encased in.
The power of this explosion was so great that it warped the air around it. This took the entirety of the enchantments on the Mecha's body and weaponized it, combining the pure raw power from its core and converting it into an explosion. It was still categorized as War Magic, meaning it was intended to hurt Acnologia.
Jason was well aware that no matter how hard he tried or how powerful his greatest creation was, it was not going to be enough to defeat Acnologia.
His first plan to deal with Acnologia was a failure.
Now, onto his second plan.
"Agghh!!!!" The Dragon King bellowed as he emerged from the massive dark clouds and flames, "What was that intended to achieve?! Kill me?! Impossible!!!!"
While his entire body was damaged, his scales shattered, cuts and gashes littered all over his massive body, Acnologia was far from being defeated. These were merely superficial wounds to the Dragon King, something he can simply heal using his automatic magic.
The wounds began to slowly close as he looked up to see the spherical barrier shattering.
"Jason, a Human like you should not hope to defeat someone as I." Acnologia said, "I shall show you the true terror of The Dragon King!!!"
Jason emerged from the barrier, clad in a crimson aura as he descended down and towards Acnologia.
"Yea yea...." Jason said, "Come and get some, asshole...."
Acnologia took off into the sky, lunging himself at Jason intending to rip him apart in midair.
Jason, however, met the Dragon King with a vicious attack of his own.
"Obliteration Style: Furious Artillery!!!!"
Jason fired off several punches that hit the Dragon King all over his body, causing several massive shockwaves that stalled him in the air.
"W-What?" Acnologia said as he was pushed back down a couple of meters, "This power..."
Jason looked down at him, "I'm far from done here, asshole..." He said,
"Let's keep dancing!!"
