Answering yes has him attack and call him a fool for thinking he can slay him. He asks Flynn if he believes dragons to be "Enemies to be slain for honor and glory," or as gods of the land. Telling Long that dragons are just beasts to be slain shifts Flynn towards Law, while believing that dragons are holy spirits shifts him towards Chaos. After defeating it, the dragon admits to underestimating him and is surprised by his great power. He decides to leave the Lake after the battle.

Long appears in Ajna, in the piano room in the red configuration. The Asura Long is a man who follows the orders of Huang Long. The battle is quite simple as long as Long is not hit by Ice spells, either by the Embryon or his own, as he will greatly healed by them.
Like the battles with the other strong demons, the battle has three stages. Unlike them, however, Long will begin the battle with hard hitting spells. His most dangerous attack throughout the battle is Mabufudyne, so it is imperative the party guards against that above anything else. During the first stage he will typically go a round of casting Makakaja twice, followed by Mind Charge and in the next round will unleash Mabufudyne followed by Revelation. During the second phase he will start using the same pattern but will also use Tarukaja for two turns and Power Charge. The next round will be Revelation followed by more attacks. He will also attempt to heal with Dia in this round.
During the final round he will begin mixing things together. With the Makakaja/Makakaja/Mind Charge rounds and Tarukaja/Tarukaja/Power Charge rounds back to back. He may also use the Rage skill to use Mind Charge and Mabufudyne back to back in this phase, allowing him to deal crippling damage without interruption. He will begin using Diarama in place of Dia to heal himself.

== Trivia ==
*In some official English versions this demon is incorrectly translated as Long due to confusion between Four Symbols (Si Xiang) and (Si Ling or Ssu-Ling) of China. In the original Japanese version, Seiryu or Qing Long represents one of the Four Symbols and Ryu or Long belongs to four benevolent animals which are fundamentally different.
