Marco looked at Anubis, his eyes now shining with a dangerous light. "I want a good... honest fight." Marco's eyes now a stark black, his excitement was so great that he lost control of his aura.
His power pouring out was so immense that Anubis for a moment felt like he was drowning in the midst of an ocean. In that moment, all he saw was a pitch black darkness, darkness so strong that nothing could escape it.
Anubis felt that he was frozen in that bottomless sea of darkness, his mouth was sealed shut, his body was now shaking due to an unknown cold sensation permeating his body from every pore.
Thanatos, now used to Marco's displays of power, swallowed hard. He then placed his hand on his shoulder, his gaze clearly telling Marco to calm down.
Seeing Thanatos's eyes, Marco only returned a look of confusion, clearly the man did not even realise the amount of power pouring from himself.
Thanatos couldn't help but sighed again, thanks to this man he had no idea how many times he sighed in the short time he met this man. Thanatos, wanting to stop Marco as quickly as possible, simply spoke "Control yourself" while pointing at Apep preparing to pounce at him at any moment.
Seeing the dragon, Marco now realised what he was doing. He face-palmed before controlling his power limiting the output to the point that it can now be barely sensed.
It was clear that at this point he was still not particularly proficient with the control of his power. Many gods can easily erase their presence by simply controlling their divine power.
By simply circulating the power within themselves and preventing it from leaking. As the oppressive power waned, Anubis and Apep felt the cold feet they were feeling fade.
When Apep felt like it could move once again it followed it's instincts. Immediately blasting Marco with a massive fire blast, it's powerful breath tore through the air headed straight for Marco.
Marco only narrowed his eyes at the breath, the amount of power it had was decent but to him? It was nothing special, his wives could easily produce that amount of power without breaking a sweat.
He clearly recalled that the amount of power Ema displayed when fighting Lucifer was greater than this.
Feeling curious, he simply remained seated, he did not even bother to defend himself in the slightest.
When the Anubis and Thanatos saw the breath headed towards Marco, they immediately backed away. The power of a dragon can be quite toxic, this all depends on the dragon.
A simple example would be if a dragon is on the same level or higher than a being, it's attacks can leave small traces of its power to fester the inflicted wound.
The best example would be like comparing someone who was injected with poison on all afflicted areas.
The two gods could only watch in shock as the breath, only being inches from Marco's unflinching face still adorned with a curious expression.
Before all that could be heard was a massive explosion. Part of the reception room was now reduced to ash along other parts of the castle in a straight line of the breath.
In the midst of the wreckage a burnt 'corpse' was laying still. That corpse was Marco with a massive smile on his face, the man still completely burnt from head to toe slowly began floating off the ground.
"Ahhhhh, dragon...." His deep, distorted voice sent chills down everyone's spines. He regained his posture, a completely burnt man standing amid the wreckage with a smile so wide that it looked painful.
Then it began, an absurd regeneration that frankly scared the beings present took place. Within a second, the third degree burns on Marco's body patched together like a horror scene.
Black blood gushed out from his body, staining the surrounding area in a puddle of darkness. He took a deep breath and exhaled. The moment his lungs emptied all the blood that poured from him shot back towards his body.
Like a scene from hell, blood coagulated on his body almost instantly, regenerating his nearly destroyed body. "NOW, ABOUT THAT FIGHT." All that was seen now was Marco's inhuman smile amid a black stained being with eyes all over his body staring preditarily at the two gods and the dragon.
