The skies went completely dark with thick clouds covering and blocking all the sunshine. Isiah who was flying had no choice but to go above the clouds, he already knew that was about to happen and judged that it would be suicidal to stay below the clouds.

After flying above the clouds, he lost sight of Darius and Kael. The clouds beneath him brimmed with red lightning, thicker and brighter than before. This was a manifestation of Darius’s current state.

He was now an animal that had been pushed to the limit and these types of animals will last out with all their might.

*CRACK!*

Isaiah’s attention was taken away by a sudden cracking sound that echoed across the sky.

He looked up to see that far above the clouds, close to the edge of their atmosphere, the faint cracks that had merely been flashing in and out of existence had suddenly gotten brighter.

The white cracks spread for kilometers and were still expanding. Isiah’s pupils shrink as he sees those cracks pulse like blood veins.

At the center of these white cracks, reality seemed to be eroding as parts of the sky opened up to reveal a tiny portal with shattered edges.

"It actually opened?" Isaiah mumbled as he flapped his wings to stabilize himself in the air.

That tiny portal with shattered edges was slowly expanding as the white cracks pulsed with power. Whatever was trying to come to this world from that side was succeeding.

"ROAR!"

A mighty lion roar that Isiah had never heard before erupted from below. This roar was followed by an aura of majesty that made Isaiah want to bow. He resisted this feeling with all his might.

A few seconds after the roar sounded out, the cracks in the sky started to expand faster than before and the shattered edges portal was widening. It was as if the roar was a beacon and the mysterious entities were rushing to this world.

Isiah for one second did not assume that these cracks were caused naturally. From the information he had gathered, all the previous occurrences seemed like something was trying to break into this world.

Everyone who knew about the cracks was convinced that there was a mysterious entity on the other side. Whatever it was, they were sure they wouldn’t be a match for it.

Everyone secretly hoped that the cracks would just go away, but it seemed fate had other plans in store.

Below the clouds, after Kael released his mighty roar, a golden wave spread out with his massive golden body at the center.

Darius tried to resist the force of the wave but he found the pressure on his body increasing exponentially.

His fur was pressed back and his claws hurt from trying to hold on to the ground. The more he resisted, the more the pressure on him increased.

All the trees around him had been blown back or bent until their stems were touching the ground. Even the grasses had to bow to prevent being uprooted.

Oh, the mountain, all the wolves, foxes, lionesses, and other creatures that had previously submitted to Kael bowed their heads. As they bowed, they discovered that the pressure that previously wanted to crush them disappeared.

As the golden wave pressed ahead, it only concentrated on those who were defiant and chose to keep their knees straight.

Darius noticed this, all he had to do was bow and he would be able to overcome this hurdle. As the person who was receiving the attack head-on, the pressure pushing on his body was very much heavier than what the others were experiencing.

All the tiger had to do was bow to the lion… "You dare…" Darius said while he gritted his teeth.

Even tigers had pride, the thought of bowing his head to a lion caused him to feel nauseated.

Thunder booms echoed from the sky as red lightning struck down on Kael’s body, but the lightning dissipated before it could react to Kael.

Seeing no way to injure Kael, Darius concentrated the lightning on his body, surrounding himself in a thick lightning shield.

Still, the pressure just continued increasing. It got to a point where Darius had almost used all his energy just to defend himself.

He thought that Kael would run out of energy first but he was still roaring with the same intensity as he started with.

More than ten seconds in and Darius completely ran out of energy. The wound by his side that he had been suppressing opened up and blood gushed out.

He groaned as his limbs began to weaken and his body lowered to the ground. He really couldn’t believe that he was losing.

Pain spread through his body as his fur was being ripped from his skin. Blood spilled into the air but was blown back by the golden force.

Slowly, Darius had all the hair on him ripped off except for a few fur patches that stubbornly held in place and caused him more pain. His feline body was bloody as the fur had been ripped away too brutally.

His black stripes could still be seen even as he bled from the tiny wounds. His muscles bulged as he gripped the earth hard.

Soon, his skin began to tear away, this made him panic. Was this how it was supposed to end?

He didn’t want to bow his head, but the feeling of his skin peeling away made him want to run mad.

Just as he was about to decide on whether to continue resisting or just bow his head, the pressure stopped.

Darius stumbled over due to the inertia. His limbs trembled and he collapsed to the ground. His eyelids grew heavy as his conciseness slowly slipped away.

’What happened?" He wondered as he lay on his side, his eyes shifting to see the golden lion closing his mouth and looking at him with a tired expression.

’I knew it…’ Darius thought, he felt a sense of relief that Kael was not as monstrous as he thought, he had a limit. That was the last thought Darius had before he sank into unconsciousness.

Seeing this, Kael’s eyes glinted with ruthlessness. He took a step forward but paused, his limbs trembled badly and he felt like he was breaking apart.

The effects of the red-capped mushrooms had worn off and he was slowly losing energy.

E frowned and his expression turned into one of fierceness. Ignoring his unholy fatigue, he took more steps to the unconscious tiger.

With every step he took, his body shrank, his muscles deflated and his spirit waned. By the time he made it to Darius, he had returned back to his original size, although something was different about his appearance now.

Kael took in deep breaths, finding it hard to breathe well as even that had become a hard task. He weakly placed his extended golden claw on Darius’s exposed neck.

Darius didn’t move, he was fully unconscious and if nothing happened, it would take a long while before he woke up.

The clouds had cleared after Darius fell unconscious. Isaiah immediately swooped down to see his friend unconscious and fur-less with Kael placing his golden claw on his neck.

His eyes widened, and he dived down even though he knew he would not be able to make it. Maybe a miracle would happen, maybe…

Kael fell to the side, exhausted. Using his falling momentum, his claw pierced into Darius’s defenseless neck easily, cutting through the windpipe and coming out of the other side.

Blood gushed out as Darius’s body started convulsing. A pool of blood began to form under him and red lightning began to surge once again. The lionesses who were already running towards Kael shook when they saw this, could Darius still survive this?

But their worries were dashed away when the convulsing stopped and Darius went still. His chest no longer rose and fell to show that he was breathing, his abdomen sank in and his tail went limp.

Isiah shot down, but he ignored Kael. His feet were aimed down as his talons grabbed two of Darius’s limbs.

He flapped his wings with all his remaining might, lifting the lifeless tiger into the air.

’I just need to get to a safe place…’ He thought. His brain had not yet registered that Darius was dead, or perhaps, he didn’t want to.

The lionesses could only watch with relief as Isaiah flew away. They didn’t care about the tiger’s body, for now, all they cared about was Kael.

Thankfully, Isaiah was so occupied with trying to save Darius that he left the defenseless Kael alone.

A faint yellow color died down from Kael’s eyes, the color of luck.

The surroundings had changed, turning into a wasteland. None of the trees in the surrounding kilometer was in one piece. The ground was cracked and scorched and the air was ionized.

It would take some time for everything to recover.

*CRACKADOOM!*

Just as Nalii reached Kael’s position, loud consecutive booms echoed from the sky as white cracks spread over the horizon.
