The Abyss.
Fifteen days later.
The bloodflas and molten substances within the enormous crater had all but vanished.
Floating silently at its center was a massive egg—over 200 ters tall and more than 100 ters wide.
At a glance, it resembled a living star.
As its shell pulsed rhythmically, waves of toxic, searing heat radiated outward, directly distorting the fabric of space. Centered on the egg, the waves rapidly expanded, turning the surrounding region into a poisonous, blistering purgatory.
Even material from a neutron star would, under such devastating temperatures, slowly erode and dissolve.
The egg's pulsations beca faster, more violent.
Invisible shockwaves of sound swept across millions of kiloters in every direction. Any creature not yet at the level of an Archdemon would perish instantly—without even a mont to react—reduced to nothing but blood and pulp.
Drawn by so unknown call, those puddles of blood defied space itself, flowing directly into the crater below, forming a thick, crimson sea.
From top to bottom, it poured onto the massive egg with a stench of overwhelming bloodlust—and the egg absorbed every drop without resistance.
Once the blood was entirely consud, the egg's movents began to slow.
Eventually, it fell completely silent.
The remaining chaotic energies scattered across the crater began to converge as if drawn by a vortex, rushing into the egg and being devoured without end.
Then ca long hours of absolute stillness.
In the silence, at first faint, then gradually growing clearer, ca waves of incomprehensible whispers echoing across the surrounding space.
As ti passed, the whispers grew louder—shifting in tone and tempo, becoming increasingly urgent, increasingly deranged.
They sounded at once like reverent praise from the depths of the soul—and at the sa ti, as if they were venomous curses that sought to tear the world apart.
At that mont, a stream of radiant golden light began to flow out from within the egg.
The light moved like liquid, spilling slowly into the crater and transforming it into a lake of pure gold, casting the egg in a holy, almost divine glow.
But the golden light did not last.
Gradually, the golden streams turned blood-red, staining the lake with a new, violent hue.
Then, crimson Deathblossoms—strikingly beautiful and soaked in dread—began to bloom out of the void itself, rooting into the golden lake one by one, releasing waves of blood mist and fragrance as they opened.
And then... the egg changed.
In absolute silence...
It began to crack.
As the broken shards of the eggshell scattered like drifting petals, transforming into Deathblossoms that fluttered on the wind—
Orsaga opened his eyes.
Calmly.
At that mont, he stood over 350 ters tall, and his weight had multiplied many tis over—surpassing that of most small celestial bodies. He now resembled a living neutron star, a colossal titan made flesh.
The twin horns on his head had, during the ascension, split and evolved.
Now they had beco four pairs of interwoven antlers, forming a crown-like structure atop his head—both regal and dreadful.
Behind him, hundreds of thousands of halos spun slowly, and nine pairs of long, slender wings—each over 390 ters long and covered in crimson scales—unfurled in a subtle, terrifying display.
His tail, over 400 ters in length, flicked lazily behind him. The trident-shaped tip moved with the casual nace of a poised viper—ready to strike at any ti.
His exoskeleton still retained the general shape of his forr form, but it had grown more elaborate, more solemn, more intricate. Every inch of his body was now inscribed with countless sigils of praise, curses, and blooming Deathblossoms.
Clenching his fist, Orsaga felt the power coursing through his body—power that had grown by a factor of thousands compared to before his ascension.
He exhaled casually—and the breath alone beca a tangible hurricane, blasting a tunnel tens of thousands of ters deep into the crater wall.
He could feel it clearly—
If he didn't suppress his power...
Then rely standing here would unleash energy tides that would lt and consu everything around him.
Like an inferno incinerating snowflakes.
This… was a completely different realm of power.
This was no longer the level of a greater Demon.
This was the birth of an Archdemon.
