***
As the storm of black flames swept through the plaza, the entire ground shook as if an earthquake had struck.
The Twin Sprout members, witnessing the immense destructive power firsthand, stood with their mouths agape.
They knew Kraush’s abilities, but their opponent was an Erosion Species on the verge of reaching 7-star level.
They were uncertain if he could defeat it in a single strike.
But witnessing that output, they realized.
Kraush was an extraordinary individual.
He truly possessed the power to kill Decarabia in one blow.
Everyone felt anew the strength of the number one in the second-year Martial Arts Class.
“He’s become a monster.”
As Aniks scoffed, Kraush and Haring fell from the black flames simultaneously.
Elfin leaped towards the two.
With her tall stature, she caught both Haring and Kraush and landed gently like a feather.
She flinched.
Even touching Kraush’s body briefly, she could feel the heat.
Did he endure such heat while attacking?
It was unbelievable mental fortitude.
And Haring was no different.
Exposed to Kraush’s heat for so long, her skin was covered in burns.
It showed how hard these two had fought.
“Put me down.”
Kraush said, struggling to catch his breath, and Elfin gently placed him and Haring on the ground.
Supported by Haring, Kraush barely managed to stand.
His body radiated intense heat.
It seemed the backlash of the Red Tiger Packet was kicking in.
Kraush struggled to keep his mind from fading as he looked up.
There he saw Aniks.
Aniks was in a mess, though not as much as Kraush.
And Aniks looked different than Kraush had ever seen.
Of course, Aniks had never gone all out before.
Seeing this made Kraush feel strangely relieved.
It felt like the old emotions were being washed away by a wave.
This world was not the one he lived in.
It constantly changed, and he could change it.
His task was simple.
Not to let all the changes go to waste.
Kraush barely held onto his fading consciousness.
[Stay focused. It’s not over yet.]
Crimson Garden’s warning echoed.
Kraush immediately looked up.
There stood Decarabia, charred black by Sky-Thundering Annihilation.
Its body had been halted by the full force of the attack.
Even Decarabia couldn’t withstand the concentrated power of Sky-Thundering Annihilation.
Suddenly, a cracking sound echoed as Decarabia’s face began to split.
When the charred, cracked pieces fell away.

Something emerged from the broken face.
It was a shrunken Decarabia.
Its face was more grotesque than its original monkey face, with a protruding snout, and thick liquid dripped from the tentacles sprouting all over its body.
Kraush felt a chill.
That was the result of Decarabia concentrating World Erosion within the black flames as a last-ditch effort.
And the result was clear.
7-star level.
Decarabia had reached a new level.
“————–!”
It let out a roar.
A roar so loud that it echoed through the plaza, causing a ringing in their ears.
The others finally noticed Decarabia’s abnormal state.
Their faces hardened as they realized the overwhelming energy coming from Decarabia.
The sight was enough to crush the fighting spirit of those who had bravely fought it just moments ago.
Thud—
“This… this is too much.”
One of the Twin Sprout members collapsed.
His face was filled with despair.
“W-we’re all dead.”
Someone muttered blankly, and no one could refute it.
Except for one person.
Kraush, who had grasped Rain Thunder Prime again.
“Aniks.”
Kraush called out to Aniks.
Aniks, seeing Decarabia’s transformation, turned to Kraush with a pale face.
Then Aniks’s eyes widened.
Black flames were gathering around Kraush’s sword again.
Aniks realized what it meant.
Kraush hadn’t given up.
“Send me in front of that creature.”
Smoke flowed from Kraush’s mouth.
His body was in ruins, barely able to move.
But he could swing his sword one more time.
“…I’ll send you in at top speed.”
Aniks, without further questions, placed his hands on the ground.
He was also at his limit, but the determination to send Kraush there was clear.
Kraush hadn’t given up.
So Aniks wouldn’t either.
That was Aniks.
“Kraush, I’ll go with you.”
“I’ll help too.”
Haring and Elfin joined Aniks and Kraush.
Seeing Aniks and Kraush not giving up, they steeled their resolve.
Unknowingly.
Kraush’s determination was gradually spreading to everyone.
And that determination was slowly leading to a single path.
The Twin Sprout members watched the four with blank expressions.
Kraush took a deep breath and gripped Rain Thunder Prime tightly.
“Launch me.”
As soon as he spoke, vibrations spread beneath their feet.
Crash!
Trees shot up from beneath their feet.
The trees grew rapidly, showing how much recovery Aniks had poured in.
At that moment, Decarabia noticed them.
It pulled out two of its arms from its original head.
Kraush realized immediately.
Decarabia had reached 7-star level.
But it wasn’t in a normal state.
The hasty awakening meant Decarabia had forced World Erosion into itself.
As a result, it hadn’t fully absorbed the World Erosion from its original body.
So it couldn’t separate from the original body.
Moreover, Decarabia’s new body was also affected by Sky-Thundering Annihilation.
Its new body wasn’t normal either.
This was a definite opportunity.
Realizing this, Kraush exhaled smoke.
His body had already reached its limit long ago.
Fighting the God of the Night had pushed him to use Annihilation Asura.
Then using the Red Tiger Packet to strike Decarabia had squeezed every last bit of strength from him.
His body was signaling danger from all sides.
He could barely move.
But he couldn’t rest yet.
An enemy was still in front of him.
Kraush’s mind raced.
His body, at its limit, couldn’t output Annihilation Erosion again.
The opponent was a 7-star Erosion Species, even if incomplete.
This wouldn’t be enough to kill it.
‘If that’s the case.’
Kraush realized he needed a new skill.
Pushing himself further might be unbearable, but there was no other way.
On the rising tree.
Kraush closed his eyes briefly.
Inside those closed eyes.
Night descended within Kraush’s body.
Nox started to envelop his body.
Tick!
A faint sound echoed as if something snapped.
It was a star Kraush had been suppressing with Doll’s Eye.
Rumble!
Though inaudible to others, Kraush felt a massive vibration deep within.
And that presence quickly began to rise above his head.
Heavenly Slaughter Star
As Doll’s Eye snapped, an uncontrollable killing intent surged.
Kraush almost lost consciousness.
The killing intent of the Heavenly Slaughter Star was beyond imagination.
Even Old Monster Blavi had eventually gone mad because of it.
The Heavenly Slaughter Star aggressively gnawed at Kraush’s mind, trying to consume him.
Surges of killing intent drew black flames wildly.
Despite his body’s limit, the Heavenly Slaughter Star forcibly pushed it to unleash killing intent onto the world.
‘Hey.’
Amidst the killing intent.
Kraush’s eyes glowed red.
‘You’re not going to consume me.’
The night veil began to cover the Heavenly Slaughter Star, which tried to devour Kraush.
The night’s role is to embrace stars.
The seven stars of the rampaging Heavenly Slaughter Star began to embed themselves into the night.
As all the stars settled in the night.
The seven stars simultaneously began to shine.
Kraush originally controlled the three stars of the Heavenly Jade Star, the Heavenly Authority Star, and the Shaking Light Star.
But for this moment, Nox allowed him to draw on the true power of the Heavenly Slaughter Star.
The first star, the Heavenly Pivot Star.
The second star, the Heavenly Jade Star.
The third star, the Heavenly Geomancer Star.
The fourth star, the Heavenly Authority Star.
The fifth star, the Jade Balance Star.
The sixth star, the Open Sun Star.
The seventh star, the Shaking Light Star.
All seven stars merged into Kraush’s body.
During the brief moment maintained by Nox.
Swoosh!
Kraush’s black flames met the true power of the Heavenly Slaughter Star and burned more fiercely than ever before.
Crunch!
Decarabia’s arm extended.
Tentacles bulged and poured out from its arm.
Kraush couldn’t avoid it.
Needing more time, he gritted his teeth as Elfin leaped in front.
Elfin’s sword, emitting purple aura, slashed at the tentacles.
Her sword was swift.
So swift that the downpour of strikes shredded the tentacles.
But Elfin had fought continuously up to now.
Some of the tentacles tore into her, causing wounds.
“Keep going!”
But Elfin bit her lips and yelled.
The tree beneath Kraush’s feet continued to advance.
Decarabia, now close, opened its mouth in rage.
Light began gathering.
The same flash as before.
But faster.
Haring leaped ahead of Kraush.
She crossed two daggers from her waist.
A crunching sound echoed as she bit into something.
She had swallowed the single item in the poison pouch.
Haring, almost too fast for Kraush to notice, dashed forward.
Her daggers, imbued with poison, struck.
Thud!
The daggers lodged into Decarabia’s jaw, forcing its head up.
The gathered light shattered inside its closed mouth.
Boom!
The displaced flash exploded internally.
“Graaaah!”
Enraged by the pain, Decarabia swung another arm at Haring.
Unable to avoid it, Haring was sent flying.
She was taken out in an instant.
But the gap she created.
Kraush seized it.
With Haring gone, Decarabia’s eyes locked onto Kraush.
He was now right in front.
Unable to move his body, Aniks’s tree still brought Kraush to Decarabia.
The black flames on his sword didn’t behave wildly.
Neatly controlled, they blackened the blade of Rain Thunder Prime.
Like the calm of the Heavenly Slaughter Star draped in night.
Kraush’s sword exuded an unprecedented tranquility.
But the heat radiating from the blade was on a different level.
Annihilation Erosion
Fourth Form
Annihilation Night Slash
Slice!
Decarabia’s head spun into the air.
Black flames from its headless neck engulfed it.
Crash!
Kraush immediately used his remaining strength to leap.
Haring was falling, unconscious from Decarabia’s strike.
As Kraush caught her, Aniks mustered his strength.
To catch Kraush.
As Aniks’s tree extended towards Kraush.
Boom!
Decarabia’s collapsing body shattered the already broken tree, causing it to fall.
Aniks’s tree couldn’t reach Kraush.
“Kraush!”
Aniks shouted as Kraush fell with Decarabia.
