Undead Beast Master: Living Solely for My Desires-Chapter 252: The Roar That Split Heaven
As Zaroth was flying high in the sky over the castle Midnight was going to have to enter it, as such, she was going to lose visibility.
Or that was what she thought until she saw that a large part of the roof had been blown out.
Turning down the corridor, she saw a massive crater that appeared to cut through several underground floors. It didn't take a genius to realize that whatever was fighting Elysia had come from there.
ROOOAAAAAARRR
Midnight stoped for a second as a monstrous roar shook the ground beneath her feet.
Luna had let out a terrifying roar before reaching the enemy.
Midnight gritted her teeth. It seemed that she was going to have to use her wings after all.
That was until her eyes froze onto something.
"It… can't be," she muttered in disbelief as she ran down into the crater.
She had spent so much time trying to evolve by consuming the blood of powerful beings, yet no matter how much she drank, it was never enough. It felt like something was missing—something crucial that could finally push her over the edge and into true evolution.
That was when Zaroth had proposed her a plan. He had said that he would give her the body of the Emperor.
At the time, she thought that it was ridiculous, but agreed anyway. She wasn't really expecting Zaroth to keep his word, but she wasn't going to lose much anyway…
She had thought that Zaroth would never do what he had promised her…
With a thud, she jumped down from a great height, landing on her two feet as she gazed at a body that was laying on the ground lifelessly.
Golden eyes and hair—this was no doubt the Emperor Draconis's body.
She stepped toward him, now she was standing over his body as she looked down at his face.
The man was clearly alive but didn't seem so. He was still breathing, but there was something wrong with him.
His eyes were opened, and they looked hollow, like there was no soul in the body.

What could leave him looking like that? Is the reason somewhere nearby?
Midnight didn't pay attention to these questions.
Before her was something that she had longed for most of her life.
Power.
Opening her mouth, her front teeth began to enlarge as they turned into deadly sharp fangs.
With no hesitation, she picked up the head of the man as she brought her fangs to his neck.
As soon as she did that, her crimson pupils expanded, and her senses seemed to get sharper, better.
Her muscles became leaner, stronger. Her fangs and nails sharper. Her body began to grow taller.
She didn't stop as she buried her fangs even deeper in the man's neck, consuming every single drop of blood from his veins.
At that moment, Midnight had begun her evolution.
Her blood was no longer pure—it was becoming Ancient.

It was impossible to get to where Elysia was fighting at the moment by normal means.
Thankfully, Lily was anything but normal. She sped up her steps as the ground beneath began to freeze.
And once she reached the crater that had been made by the explosion, rather than falling down, ice began to form under her feet, not letting her fall down.
Focusing on Elysia, Lily raised the ice into the air and shot toward her.
Was this going to work?
She had never really tried it before. But it was now or never!
*****
A ragdoll.
This was the only way Elysia could express her current situation.
Her mind was hurting as if it was splitting into dozens of pieces due to the demigod in front of her.
Without letting the twisted smile disappear from its hideous face, the demigod flapped its wings hard, as if making a torrent form around it.
The next moment, Elysia was hit by a seemingly invisible force and was sent flying back dozens of meters.
Thanks to her will, Elysia was more or less able to levitate, making the attacks easier to dodge in theory.
But theory and practice were sadly never the same.
Several fireballs appeared next to the body of the demigod.
And before Elysia could see them move, she had already been hit.
"Fuck!" a silent curse escaped her mouth. She was in a very bad spot.
Under normal circumstances, she would long be dead, but at the moment wasn't. That wasn't because of her skills, however. It was simply because the demigod was playing with her.
Elysia couldn't be exactly sure, but she now more or less guessed what Draconis's plan had been all this time.
First, he would create a demigod somehow, and then he would manage to take over its body.
There were millions of questions as to how something like this was possible, but sadly, Elysia had no time to ponder on the issue.
All that mattered was that this was now her reality, and she had to act accordingly.
Yet how could she? She was fighting against a Demigod of Chaos.
The cursed being not only possessed a will stronger than hers, rendering her nearly powerless, but its very existence was causing chaos in the atmosphere.
In other words, even if she were to somehow manage to land a hit, that hit could simply move, going beyond the known laws about gravity and physics and miss its mark.
Before she could react, Elysia was hit in the back by a hard chunk of earth.
Yet despite the pain, she couldn't help but scoff.
"So this is it, huh? In the end, you prove me correct, Draconis. You only face me now that you have the body of a Demigod. To the very end, you are a spineless coward."
ROOOAAAAAARRR
As if reacting to her words, the demigod stretched out its long limbs and wings to the side as it let out an ear-piercing roar.
Elysia's sight began to blur.
'So this is the end, huh?' she thought as she was about to lose consciousness.
However, before she could, another roar seemed to split reality apart—this one no less menacing.
ROOOAAAAAARRR
Stunned by the roar behind it, the demigod seemed to forget about Elysia, turning its back to her—only for its pupils to widen in shock.
At that moment, there was a large skeletal dragon flying right at it full force, and at the back was Zaroth with his face twisted in pure fury.
