-1046- Primogenitor's beast vessels

////Sorry for not updating, been busy with collage stuff. Was facing problem about dropping courses. Turns out 3 courses is too much for me and been talking to my instructor and program advisor to arrange it for me. Now that my withdrawal is approved, I got more free time now <⁠(⁠￣⁠︶⁠￣⁠)⁠>.////

"Boom..."

A rumble reverberated through the southeastern skies of Itogami Island.

A massive surge of magic formed a column of air that shot up from the southeastern region, piercing through the clouds and causing them to swirl.

The southeastern region trembled in response.

The surrounding seas churned violently.

Amidst this apocalyptic scene, nine colossal Beast Vassals consecutively manifested, roaring into the sky, causing waves of magical fluctuations like unseen shockwaves, shaking Itogami Island and eliciting mournful cries.

Many witnessed this spectacle.

The residents of Itogami Island saw it.

The special district security forces responsible for sealing off the southeastern region saw it.

The airplanes passing overhead paused as passengers crowded the windows, stunned by the sight.

And the vigilant observers who had been watching this spectacle unfold were left in awe.

"Has it finally awakened?"

Shizuka Koyomi, aboard a cruise ship, watched the scene unfold, murmuring to herself as she headed towards the southeastern region.

"That's the... Beast Vassals of the Fourth Primogenitor..."

Minamiya Natsuki, holding a parasol atop a high vantage point overlooking the southeastern region, stood against the wind with a solemn expression before disappearing from sight.

The earth-shattering sight informed many that the Fourth Primogenitor, who should not exist in this world, had finally reappeared.

Undoubtedly, many hearts would struggle to find peace tonight.

Countless onlookers, both those who were curious and those who were indifferent, gazed at the spectacle of the nine Beast Vassals appearing in the skies above the southeastern region, unable to look away.

So, in the face of this spectacle, what did Rozen, who was being watched by those nine catastrophic Beast Vassals, feel?

Rozen stared fixedly at the nine catastrophic Beast Vassals in the sky.

The first Beast Vassal, a diamond ram composed entirely of gemstone crystals...

"————Mesarthim Adamas."

The second Beast Vassal, a bull-headed giant formed of molten lava...

"————Cor Tauri Succinum."

With a sinuous, hook-clawed body and mercury-scaled wings, intertwining like a spiral, a fearsome dual-headed dragon with silver scales covering its entire body...

"————Al Meissa Mercury."

Accompanied by silver mist, with a grey carapace and a fluctuating, ghostly body, a crustacean beast with misty shell-like armor...

"————Natra Cinereus."

Surrounded by lightning, gleaming with a golden hue, emitting a fierce aura and raging hostility, a lion...

"————Regulus Aurum."

Shaped like three cobalt swords, each over a hundred meters long, far larger than the other Beast Vassals, emitting destructive magic and possessing immense sharpness...

"————Kiffa Ater."

Covered in purple flames, with a scorpion tail and wings, a face resembling a human, a body resembling a lion, and sharp, tiger-like fangs, a humanoid lion-bodied scorpion...

"————Shaula Viola."

With deep red mane, accompanied by storms and soundwaves, a majestic and awe-inspiring double-horned horse...

"————Alnasl Minium."

With the upper body of a beautiful woman and the lower body of a serpent, countless snakes forming her long hair, her body composed of churning water, a water spirit...

"————Sadalmelik Albus."

Like ghosts from hell, the Original called out the true names of her Beast Vassals, summoning them into the world.

Ordinary vampires could only possess one or two, even the powerful vampires of the old generation and vampire nobles, elders, and royals could only possess three or four. It was not easy to simultaneously summon and control Beast Vassals, yet, at this moment, the Original effortlessly liberated all nine at once.

As Rozen observed the magical fluctuations and terrifying aura emanating from those Beast Vassals, he knew how dangerous they were.

Take the three Beast Vassals, Mesarthim Adamas, Cor Tauri Succinum, and Alnasl Minium, for example. Rozen had encountered them before, but facing them now felt completely different.

Unlike when they were summoned by the Matrice or by Balthazar Zaharias, Rozen now confronted them directly, feeling only one thing...

"It's like electricity coursing through my whole body, giving me goosebumps..."

Rozen bathed in the storm of magic, sweating profusely yet smiling fearlessly.

Just like facing the Demon Pillars in the Fifth Singularity, although it was a great crisis, Rozen felt neither fear nor timidity, only a determination and fighting spirit.

Because...

"If not like this, then all the attention and seriousness I gave before would be meaningless."

Rozen took a deep breath, finally withdrawing his gaze from the nine Beast Vassals and slowly closing his eyes.

"Go forth, my vassals."

The Original issued a ruthless command.

"Eliminate him."

With this command from the Original, the nine Beast Vassals moved simultaneously.

"Boom!"

The ground where Rozen stood suddenly exploded.

It was the sound of hot lava erupting from the ground like sharp stakes.

The second Beast Vassal, Cor Tauri Succinum, launched the first attack. With a swing of its battle axe, lava spikes erupted like towering peaks, crashing towards Rozen.

Compared to human proportions, each lava spike was truly like a towering mountain, massive and heavy, engulfing Rozen's figure in an instant.

However, before that, Rozen's figure had already disappeared.

It was a spatial shift initiated by Space Manipulation Magic.

With his Mind's Eye, Rozen couldn't have missed the attack from the blind spot, so he had already used spatial shift to escape beforehand.

As long as he had the Mind's Eye and combined it with spatial shifting, Rozen could be virtually invincible.

However...

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

The two heads of Al Meissa Mercury, the third Beast Vassal, suddenly roared separately, like enraged beasts. Flapping their wings, they instantly flew in one direction, towards the space there, opening their pitch-black dragon mouths.

The two dragon mouths bit into the empty space where no one was present.

"Bang!"

With this bite, the space bitten by the double-headed dragon shattered as if torn apart, directly breaking.

A figure rushed out hastily from the shattered space.

"What...?"

Astonishment covered Rozen's face.
