Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1574 Ended

?

The Zodiac King, Alduin Talon, was a Supreme Magus. The highest echelon in the Magus Universe, which only a few people managed to reach. 

A figure of such stature had come and joined the fight.

As if he was a blazing meteor, the man shot down from the sky towards the Primal Beast, striking it with both of his fists using unstoppable might. 

BAAAAAMM!!!

The moment it connected, a large crack appeared on the ground as the residual force seeped everywhere. The clouds in the sky dispersed as the attack generated a shockwave that spread for a mile into space.

Even though they had somewhat expected it, everyone still had their mouths wide open as they saw that, with his raw strength alone, the Zodiac King was able to knock down the creature in one hit.

As the Alpha King's right-hand man, Warwick immediately went to greet the Zodiac King. His figure rushed across the sky and immediately paid his respect to the supreme being as soon as he arrived in front of him.

"King Alduin, the Primal Beast is actually our King, Marcus Silvermane. Please lend us a hand to bring him back."

At this moment, Lucius Corvin finally arrived. He landed right next to Alduin and said, "I guess this means the intel is correct. Do you have a plan?"

The Zodiac King was silent as he stared at the 100 meter tall monster which was currently starting to stand back up. A moment later, he turned to Warwick and said, "I am afraid, with such prowess, I really can't guarantee your king's safety."

A conflicted expression appeared on Warwick's face when he heard those words because he knew very well what they meant. In the end, he made up his mind, looked at Alduin and said, "I'm sure my Lord would want us to stop him. Please do the best that you can."

Upon hearing that, Alduin immediately turned into his beast transformation. His body turns crimson red and a dragon horn appears on his forehead. 

He then glanced at the group of grand magus patriarchs present as he said, "All of you should go and guard the perimeter. Don't jump in unless I say so."

After saying those words, with confidence brimming from his entire figure, the Zodiac King took out his greatsword and dashed toward the Primal Beast at breakneck speed. 

BAAAMMM!

Another loud explosive sound rang out as the two figures clashed again.

Shrill groans of pain could be heard echoing continuously through the air in the next moment, as he charged at the creature and relentlessly launched thunderous attacks capable of disrupting even space.

As the fight between the two entities progressed, while everyone was relieved by the arrival of such a figure, Philips Corvin appeared to be still very emotional. It was clear he was exasperated by the development of the situation.

With the arrival of the Zodiac king, he would not be able to take revenge for his son.

THUMP! THUMP!! THUMP!!

The ground shook violently as Alduin continued to beat the creature relentlessly, attacking it from every possible direction and angle. There were several occasions where it could strike back, but the former was fast enough to dodge and retaliate with an even stronger attack.

Everyone couldn't believe that even after receiving such a blow, the Primal Beast could still stand up. It continued to regenerate the damage it received as if it had no limits. However, their hands were really tied.

For obvious reasons, Alduin didn't send out attacks that could risk dealing critical damage. He could only continuously and consistently control the power he put into his attacks, just enough to weaken the creature.

Unbeknownst to him and those fighting the Primal Beasts, such actions only made Emery and Morgana, who were trapped within the beast, even more miserable. At this point, they had to basically rely on their tenacity to hold on.

"We will survive this, Morgana. hang in there!"

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Alduin injured the beast, it kept getting up and fighting back. The battle was so intense that no one realized that it had gone on for as long as four hours.

When the moon hid on the horizon and the morning sun emerged, after hundreds of clashes with the supreme being, the Primal Beast finally let out its final growl, before its body crashed to the ground and began to disintegrate into a mass of blood.

The Zodiac King himself was having difficulty standing after such a battle.

Seeing that, Warwick immediately went over to where the Primal Beast had fallen. He tried to find his King amidst the abundance of blood to no avail. Not giving up, he turned his attention to the last place to look: the crimson crystallized cocoon of the beast, which he quickly used all of his power and tore, forcing it open with both hands.

"My king!" he shouted.

However, a torrent of blood gushed out from the cocoon as it was torn open, within which one could see a pile of corpses. All of them were magus who had been drained of their lifeforce to the bone. Tragically not even a spirit soul remained. Even so, Warwick searched desperately through the corpses; yet his King was nowhere to be seen.

He couldn't help but in despair realizing that the King of Silvermane had disintegrated into blood, just like the beast was. 

"What about his spirit soul?" 

Alduin was looking for a certain anomaly and finally stepped into a pile of flesh and picked up a book, [The book of Blood]. As if familiar with such an artifact, he headed toward Warwick and said, "I believed the answer to what happened here lies in this book."

Warwick could be seen clearly trying his best to calm down at the devastating revelation. A few moments later, he looked towards the other grand magus and delivered the news. 

"Our King is no more…"

The loss was evidently something that was hard for everyone to accept. Even Philips, who was in a rage, and Tidus, the rebel leader himself, felt the loss. 

After all, they had been loyal subjects to the Alpha King for hundreds of years.

It was during this silence that Alduin suddenly felt something. A look of surprise crossed his face as he turned to the pile of corpses once again. "Someone is still alive…  No, there are two of them."

Looking toward the pair young male and female, the Zodiac King asked, "Who are they? How could they survive this?" but then his face turned to shock when he saw the young man's face start to change.

"Emery!!"
