Chapter 1043: 16.89 First Red Star - Special Visitors
While the Trials in the Primitive World continue and everyone who came for the Mateship Ceremony is busy completing their tasks, the situation in their Original World has also changed. Kenan Light, the Devil, had finally become a Devil God, and his abilities were now on par with Keylan Light, the God's messenger in their world.
Refugees seek assistance from the Genus Academy's territory. These refugees were all accepted with the permission of Headmaster Cassius Ambrosia and Instructor Fenrir Skoll. The refugees were instructed to enter the Academy one at a time, carefully entering the barrier that separates the Land of the Genus Academy from the earth beyond its barrier.
Since Luther D'Arcy and Randall Ruid were not present, Luciel Dawn and his wife, Thana Daybreak, as well as the other Instructors of the Genus Academy from the ordinary class, were tasked with leading this duty. Today they had an experience that no one could have predicted. One of the refugees about to pass through the barrier surrounding the Academy suddenly howled as its body passed through.
Geyyaa~
His skin dried and his eyes turned crimson and lifeless in front of everyone's eyes, just like those undead creatures under the control of the Devil Kenan Light. This person was obviously not human, as its body was reduced to ashes in just a few seconds after touching the golden barrier that surrounded the Academy.
"What the... He is an undead!!!"
"Summon all the priests and activate the Purification Domain. There must be a lot more like this among the refugees!!" Luciel Dawn commanded.
Thana Daybreak also commanded her clan and said, "Kill anyone who tries to escape. Treat all those who try to run away as enemies!!"
"As you command, Earl!!!"
The refugees were terrified by the uproar. Who wouldn't suspect that an undead lurked among them? They didn't want to be killed by this hidden threat, but no one dares to stir up more trouble on the line. They also heard the order to kill those who attempted to flee the line. As expected, some people attempted to flee but were killed by noble vampires from the Daybreak Clan.
Some priests were stationed under the command of the former Cardinals' disciples and activated the Purification Domain as instructed. Some priests who had joined the Keylan Light's wings had a significant increase in strength. This is because of the blessings Mikaela bestowed on the believers of his messenger, Keylan Light.
What happened here was reported to Genus Academy's Headmaster and Instructor Skoll. Their reactions are still as calm as usual, and they didn't even flinch when they learned that Kenan Light, the devil, is targeting the academy. This simply means that he had nearly conquered everything except the Genus Academy's territory.
Instructor Skoll said after hearing the news, "Don't worry. They wouldn't be able to go inside. You already saw what happened when it tried to do so."
"B-But Lord Skoll... Would the effect still be the same if a huge number of monsters came attacking the barrier? Can it hold up?" The man who reported what was happening to the Genus Academy asked.
Headmaster Cassius Ambrosia spoke, "It won't go down as long as I am still alive. Don't worry."
"Thank you for such a piece of good news. This subordinate shall take his leave now."
The messenger was overjoyed when he heard this. The barrier that protects the Genus Academy does not appear to be similar if it has a connection with the Headmaster. Everyone in the academy knows that the Headmaster should be someone as powerful as Instructor Fenrir Skoll. They had hope that they would be able to survive because they had these two men with them in such a disaster.
A few moments after the messenger had left...
Cassius Ambrosia and Fenrir Skoll were eating dinner. The meat for tonight's dinner is made from dinosaurs and was made into steak by Fenrir Skoll. This couple always acts as if the impending destruction of the world has got nothing to do with them.
The headmaster suddenly asked, "If I have to stay here until the time I can leave, are you going to stay with me, A'Xia?"
"Of course. I will be with you until the end and leave together with you, Baby." Fenrir Skoll responded with a doting smile. This is a smile full of affection and gentleness that is only meant for his love.

Back to the Primitive World...
Loud commotions were heard from far away. Especially seeing an Adult Pterodactyl and a Tyrannosaurus Rex, most of the dinosaurs and beasts in the forest had run away. But despite the other prey all around them, these two overlords were focusing on the two couples.
Asher Light complains while running away, "What's wrong with this stupid bird!? Is it going to chase us to the peak!?"
CAAWS~
As if hearing Asher Light's words, the adult Pterodactyl shrieks at them and its diving attacks had gotten more frequent as well. The couple noticed it and Amber Dawn couldn't be helped by glare at Asher Light not knowing whether to get angry or cry.
Amber Dawn said, "Don't talk anymore!"
"Wu~ Okay!" Asher Light said.
They became aware of something happening in the path ahead of them. Some tall trees in the distance are falling, and some small, mid-sized dinosaurs and animals are fleeing the mountain peak. They knew something from on high was causing such a commotion.
Amber Dawn used plants and trees to fall from thousands of miles away and saw her younger brother as a white werewolf on Conri Lycaon's back. They appear to be fleeing as well, and they emerge from the mountain peak. She stretched her vision and was astounded to see a live Tyrannosaurus Rex appear before her eyes. She yelled on the spot, startling Asher Light and the pursuing Pterodactyl.
"T-REX... Why is a Tyrannosaurus Rex chasing after Car and Conri!?" Amber Dawn exclaimed.
Asher Light was dumbfounded by what he heard, "Isn't that the king of Savage Beast?? Why is it chasing after them!?"
A massive white wolf jumped out in front of them. Conri Lycaon and Carnelian Dawn stared at Asher Light and Amber Dawn, and Amber created a wood vine and wrapped it around Conri Lycaon's body in an instant. Asher Light hugged her, grabbed the vine, jumped on the back of the white wolf, and rode him as well. When he saw this, the Pterodactyl attempted to turn around and chase them down. The Tyrannosaurus Rex chomped it alive and ate it because it didn't notice the Savage Breast King chasing it from behind.
Caaws~ Crunch. Caw! Munch! Cracks~
Despite eating a Pterodactyl, the vengeful Tyrannosaurus Rex still chased after the other four.
Graaww~
Asher Light looked disgusted when he saw the scene of that annoying bird dinosaur being eaten like a chicken drumstick by the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
"Woa~ so savage~ look at all that blood dripping!" The Holy Son commented.
Amber Dawn ignored her lover and asked her younger brother why the T-Rex is chasing them. When he heard this question, Carnelian Dawn felt guilty. It was his fault that they bumped into this vicious beast.
"What happened? How can you bumped with a savage beast?"
"Ah~ I wanted to eat Pterodactyl as Leafy says it is much more delicious than an ordinary chicken. He climbed up the mountain trying to find a small one but I read the map wrong and entered the Red Zone where the Tyrannosaurus Rex lives instead of the Mountain Ranges where the Pterodactyls Nest is located. It saw us and chased us leading to the current situation." Storied Carnelian Dawn.
"You guys are really..."
Amber Dawn looked helpless at her younger brother while staring at her boyfriend. They both act like children who do not consider the consequences of their actions. If they wanted to do something, they would do it first, regardless of whether it was good or bad. Most of the time, it was disastrous. For example, being pursued by a Tyrannosaurus Rex for trespassing in his territory by an enraged Pterodactyl.
Asher Light asked, "What's done is done. What should we do next? Any plans for it, Conri?"
"Find brothers and fight the T-Rex. The more people on our side the better. I don't want to bring the T-Rex near the town as that... is quite rude for the original residents. At least with Brother and Esther, we should be able to think of a new plan." Conri Lycaon said.
Carnelian Dawn blinked innocently and stated, "Isn't this trial on live broadcast? Doesn't that mean everyone from the City already knew our situation?"
"That's right. Let's ask for help with the warriors. The more the better! This T-Rex is the most powerful savage beast in history. We cannot defeat it on our own." Asher Light said.
Conri Lycaon said, "I'll head near the City but not directly. Brother should have noticed the commotion by now."
They continue to escape from the savage beat chasing after them. They would be lucky to bump into Esther Dawn and Mayonaka Yoru who were also on their way in their direction and join them.

Meanwhile on the side of the forest...
A section of the forest has been destroyed, with massive craters and numerous fallen trees. In addition, three adult Tyrannosaurus Rex are dead in the circle. In the center, a man dressed in a white Taoist robe had his hand soaked in Savage Beast Blood. Even his sleeve and robe were stained with blood. Despite the fact that his face is hidden behind a veiled hat, his current appearance is heavenly defying.
This man calmly ripped three adult Savage Beast Kings apart, leaving the T-Rex barely recognizable. There are some death warrior beastmen not far from the crater. One was even eaten in half, leaving only his upper body. Others lost a limb or two, such as an arm or leg. Only one was unharmed, but he appeared traumatized by the scene of his group being surrounded by three Savage Beasts and would have been eaten alive if it hadn't been for this man in a white robe riding a large black jaguar with golden spots.
"Is this the strongest animal in this place? It's not that much different from a rabid dog." The white robe man said. Sniffing the scent of rust on him made him frown and mumbled, "Now I smell disgusting thanks to these useless things."
Unlike Hei Anjing, the smell of blood did not excite the man. Instead, he is disgusted and disdainful of it and because of the scent he wanted to change his clothes right away but realized he couldn't because he can only control water elements to clean his robes. The black jaguar shook his paw and a pillar of light fell on the man, instantly drying his clothes as if the sun had dried them for him.
The black jaguar said, "Do you want to go back to your nephew's house to take a bath first before the second trial?"
"Hm. Better take a bath. I want some stew for dinner." The man in the white robe said.
The black jaguar nodded its head and accepted the food order from the white robe man. "Good back and take a bath. I will the prey over to submit and start cooking."
The white-robed man simply took a step forward and vanished. He clearly did not teleport, but he is so fast that no one noticed him leave. The black jaguar suddenly glowed golden and transformed into a man with aureate shade irises wearing a white gold robe a few seconds after the white robe man left. Unlike the man in the white robe, this individual did not conceal his face. When Great Elder Tuya and Keylan Light arrived, they were taken aback by how holy and gentle this man appeared, particularly by the sacredness of his aura. It is visible to everyone.
Keylan Light was one of the few people who had seen Ye Xiajie in person. Mikaela showed him the true appearances of Fenrir Skoll's, Randall Ruid's, and Luther D'Arcy's souls. Only Cassius Ambrosia's soul is hazy because it was incomplete. He was surprised to see a man with a face so similar to Ye Xiajie's, despite the fact that his aura is completely opposite of his menacing aura.
"Lord God Ye?" Keylan Light calls.
