Zion saw the boy in front of him and immediately, something inside him boiled. He moved. Faster than he had ever been. Faster than he ever thought was possible.
He moved behind the boy and covered him. He let the entirety of his Dragon body take the brunt force of the explosion.
His scales, which were made of the same material as Draconian Scales, were supposed to have the same durability as that of Nascent Armor. That's what made Draconians so feared.
With the Old Witch's barrage, Zion should have been able to defend against an attack like this easily.
At least, theoretically.
After all, one of the characteristics of Zion's scales was that it was able to disperse force very effectively, almost making it nullified.
But at this point, Zion didn't choose to disperse the force. If he did, his dragon body would be thrown forwards at a very fast speed, a speed surpassing even that of sound.
