Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 308: A Rank Es Dragon

As Rank Es Elementalists, they were directly using the surrounding energy, instead of storing the energy inside their body first so that they could use it for later. That was why inside the Separate World, there was little energy to get from.

Old Maytan would not last so he looked at the three and asked to get the energy from them.

The three had no choice but to channel it to the old man.

Feeling chaotic inside him as Fire Elemental Energy clashed with his World Element, Old Maytan immediately redirected it to his elesp.

The aura of the barrier soon changed and a tinge of redness spread all throughout the sphere.

The Apexial Beasts who thought that they were about to destroy the barrier frowned. They attacked more. 

Meanwhile, Sheran was feeling the energy moving into her. It was not raw energy but instead, Natal Energy. She felt full. This is because Gamon and Old Maytan's Natal Energy entered her energy veins, trying to poke holes in them.

Nerves were popping out all over Sheran's body. A painful feeling overrode her body. She gritted her teeth. Normally, the Natal Energy would slowly try to get out since the energy vein was full.

The bigger and sturdier the energy vein the harder it is to fill with natal energy. However, this also entails their talent. If one's energy veins are small, natal energy would slowly move in, slowing their progress and decreasing their limit.

The reason why there is a barrier between Rank Ey and Rank Es is that to get to Rank Es, it is no longer about filling the energy veins, it is about having full control of it and let their natal energy spread out the environment.

Before, only the energy inside their body could be used by their energy veins but once they turned Rank Es, they would be able to spread their natal energy and control surrounding energy.

This is why Hearoid was about to intercede Old Maytan's casting since it was their clash of natal energy. Natal Energy, in a sense, is their soul.

Even when Darea fought Centre, their Soul Element collided through the widows of their souls, the eyes.

Their Soul Element, on the other hand, was the complete control of natal energy. Instead of using the natal energy to control the surrounding energy, they can use the natal energy to attack the enemy's soul.

If one doesn't have a strong soul or even if they have a strong soul, if they didn't know how to defend it, their defeat is already set on the table.

This differentiated Darea and Centre from the rest that was why their battle determined what would happen to the world.

Right now, Sheran was releasing her energy out. The heat was rising and the only few remaining energy in the environment were going towards her at a fast rate.

'If only my Separate World is bigger, then this would be faster.'

Of course, no energy can be destroyed nor created. It is still true for elemental energy. Normally, when energy was used up, it is formed either an elesp or elesk. Once its purpose is done, it will return to the world, spreading out.

This was part of Gamon's plan. Sheran's energy is the most compatible with her. The more she took in, the more she released them, the more they come back to her, the original owner. Then with Gamon and Old Maytan's natal energy piercing and expanding her energy vein, the more these elemental energy condense into natal energy.

How?

None of the two men's energy is compatible with Sheran, thus, it will be released after its purpose was done. leaving great space for the new natal energy to arrive.

Sheran felt like she was blowing up. Without Gamon's help, that might've been true by now.

Currently, Old Maytan's help was retracted. That was fine, his main help is the Separate World, after all. The question of how these two know already know what to do was still unanswered for Sheran.

She kept her mind occupied with the task of ranking up. Although forced, if she ranked up, she would be able to deal with one General. Her strength as a Rank Ey could almost match a Rank Es, what more if she became Rank Es?

With the expectation that she would be another overlord like Darea or Centre, Gamon and Old Maytan have planned to make her the leader of the continent at the end of their plan.

The Apexial Beasts attacked but not so much that it will reduce their stamina. After all, they were thinking of attacking a Rank Eses, an unknown myth, later on. They want to restore their stamina while attacking. That way, once they defeated these newcomers, they are still in their prime.

Time passed, the marching of Darea's army stopped as they looked far away at how monstrous their superiors truly are.

One of these Apexial Beasts could be an Overlord if not the Conqueress taking over, after all.

Evening was about to arrive, the barrier was now pure red since Old Maytan had already used his remaining energy redirecting the Fire Elemental Energy from Quiare's group.

As the sunlight was about to disappear, Cojier was feeling the power. Even though he is a Light Elemental Beast, he mainly used the moonlight due to his nature as a Prismatic Wolf.

And before the sun completely settled, Old Maytan was finally at his edge. Even though Quiare's group had energy to spare, the Might of Torge does not.

Collapsing on his position, the Separate World disappeared. 

The Apexial Beasts saw this as a chance and attacked all at once with elesps to finish it once for all.

But at the same time, the environmental energy imploded.

Swoosh*

With different attacks from all directions, a great explosion resounded. Like nuclear bomb that was dropped onto the land, a loud bang resounded to all directions. Even with some distance, some demons cried as they were injured from the shockwave.

However, it still traveled far and wide.

"Hmm..." Hanmer frowned.

"To deflect all of our elesps..." Kerion was speechless like the other Generals.

"Looks like they were trying something," Hearoid calmly said, "And succeeded."

Spreading her wings, a dragon roared in the middle. This simple roar cracked the ground near them. While the Generals were unflinching, the demons from far away felt an instinctual fear entering their mind.
