The Empyreal Gem Master

Two Beast Lords!

Two Orc Minions, and Claire and Azazel!

All six had blazing crimson gold wings appear on their backs as they looked at each other, with Anastasia being the first to speak as she floated closely towards Alexander and showed him her curvaceous back.

"Master, I was testing out the extent and limitations of these wings last night, and my goodness- even the Dragon Race, the rulers of the skies, would be jealous of these!"

…!

Her actions of parading herself in front of Alexander caused the brows of Claire to rise cautiously as her eyes flashed with care.

Alexander looked at Anastasia and nodded as he voiced out calmly.

"Put them to use. Let's head towards the Stronghold being targeted by that Beast Lord Dread at once."

His dark eyes flashed with a light of greed.

An enemy holding a Gem recipe that would allow him to summon even more Minions.

He had to get his hands on it!

HUUM!

Brilliance shone as the body of Anastasia became a radiant gold green Peacock, Alexander coming to stand atop it along with Azazel and Claire.

Anastasia said nothing when it came to Azazel or Claire, but when the Orc Minion also moved their massive bodies towards her back…

"You brutes also think you can mount this body only meant for Master? Fly yourselves- we all have the same maximum speed anyways."

Her voice was authoritative and pompous as her wings flared out before she became a streak of lightning in the distance.

The Orc Minions looked at each other as if they were discriminated against before their massive obsidian bodies also followed at a millionth the speed of light!

They left behind a quiet City of Anan as within its depths, a Caladrius looked at the empty skies while gazing down sadly.

"Master…don't abandon me…"

Nueire spoke out in a voice no one could hear before she sighed, nudging her brother Caladrius nearby as they herded the Beasts within towards the Breach to mine.

—

In the skies of Ephesus.

"The next target is heading to attack an Ascendant Stronghold under the banner of the Ascendant Lineage of Drakos. A Summoner Beast Lord."

Alexander was talking to Claire and Azazel as they listened intently regarding their target.

"Any Tier 5 and 4 Beasts, kill and obtain their Ascendant Life Gems. The Tier 6 Beast Commanders…preserve their lives. They could be used to transfer their Gem Socket Blueprints. As for the Beast Lord Dread…his fate is already set in stone."

He planned thoroughly for the battle ahead as he chose this powerful strike force to quickly deal with all issues before moving on!

Amidst their discussions, the figure of Azazel was contemplative as he spoke out.

"Are we going to every Stronghold being besieged by Beasts in the future and saving all who we can?"

…!

An important question was asked by Azazel as he thought of things long term.

And toward this, Alexander could only shake his head while looking ahead.

"Our power is great, but not enough to cover all of Ephesus. If I am thinking of a distant end goal…it is to raise our power to a high enough level equivalent to the Leaders of Beast Races before our World undergoes Energeia Star Ascension.

From what the Beasts know...the areas with the strongest natives of this world will be the ones where the boons of the Energeia Star Ascension will be most concentrated. So the biggest blow we can deal against the Beast Invaders is to entirely strip them of the chance to occupy the most blessed areas of Ephesus after the Energeia Star Ascension."

…!

His eyes radiated a terrifying light.

"The same opportunity they seek from whatever this Energeia Star Ascension will lead to is what we grab onto the most as after we have power that can overcome all races invading this world…we can simply push them out of Ephesus thereafter!"

His figure looked laid back, but the words he uttered out were anything but.

Azazel looked into Alexander's eyes and nodded as a moment later…they gazed changed as they looked in the far distance ahead of them.

There, they could see rising dark smoke and distinctly hear the roars of Beasts and the cries of Human Gem Masters.

It was the glimmer of sounds of war as in moments, they all became serious and stern as they continued ahead like streaks of crimson lightning.

Soon enough, the dark clouds above them became even denser, but they could clearly see the outline of a massive Stronghold ahead- the Willow Tree Stronghold protected by the Ascendant Branch of the Drakos Bloodline!

But at this moment…

Its strong white walls were torn down.

Bloody scenes of devastation and horror lay down below as throngs of Beasts flooded into the Stronghold, while Human Gem Masters laid down their lives to stop them!

Most terrifying of all were 12 massive Skeleton Knights that waved their bone blades with absolute menace, two Tier 7 Ascendant Gem Masters of the Drakos Bloodline flying in the skies and trying to use this to their advantage.

But they weren't able to stop the advancement of these creatures as the wall of the Stronghold was torn down, and their reserves of Energeia ran dangerously low!

"Ka ka ka! Go! Go! Burn it all down! Keep any succulent women alive as today, we shall feast and breed!"

Inside the midst of it all, a depraved voice filled with malice boomed out as it led this destruction.

Alexander looked at it all with a terrifying gaze, speaking towards Vishpala beside him in an extremely cold voice!

"Take him down in less than five seconds."

…!

His command was a heavy one.

And the moment it was heard, Vishpala's figure disappeared with a spatial light to appear above the distant figure of Beast Lord Dread who was not protected by any nearby Skeleton Knights- her eyes cold as they were intent on completing the command much quicker than even the given five seconds!

At the same time, Azazel and Claire dashed out towards the Human Gem Masters dying in throngs, the Orc Minions following behind as they let out warring roars!
