The spatial rift slowly dragged the lizard, but the beast reacted instantly. The lizard dug its tail deep into the ground and used it as an anchor to stay in place. Running away was useless, the rip absorbed everything, trees, earth, rocks, and even water from the rivers.
'More, I need more strength!' Wain inwardly exclaimed and clenched his hand into a fist.
Several glowing dots appeared in the rift, like stars in the cosmic sky. They turned into small blades that headed toward the lizard. The beast couldn't run away as it risked being hit by a gape, so the lizard had to take the full damage.
The energy lines glowed, and the pelt on its back became several times stronger. However, the spatial blades effortlessly cut through it and pierced the lizard's flesh. The entire lizard's back was covered in multiple bleeding wounds, and the attacks continued. Wain created new blades, not caring about his condition.
His left eye began to bleed, but he had no intention of stopping. With every second he was getting closer to victory, the lizard took far more wounds than he was.
"Roooooaaaaaaarrrrr!"
The lizard roared in pain and glared furiously at Wain. The stripes glowed brightly, and energy armor appeared on the lizard.
The beast pulled out its tail and ran toward Wain at breakneck speed. The pulling force of the spatial rift wasn't enough to stop the lizard, the beast used its last strength to win.
"You bastard." Wain clenched his teeth, created several spatial spears, and launched them at the lizard.
"What? How?!"
The spears couldn't damage the lizard, the armor completely absorbed them, and the beast had already come up fast enough to attack.
Wain was unable to dodge, the second form was slower than the others and gave him no physical bonuses, moreover he was exhausted.
The lizard opened its mouth wide, and its razor-sharp teeth headed for Wain.
Whooooooooosh.
A white flash appeared above the lizard, turning into the massive silhouette of a dragon's head and crashing down on the beast like a meteor.
Osvald's fist shattered the impenetrable barrier like glass and tore the monster's hide apart.
Its eyes were cold and its gaze serious. The veins in his arm swollen strong and every muscle tensed, Osvald struck at full force.
The shockwave from the impact spread hundreds of meters around, and under the incredible pressure, the lizard's bones began to crack. The beast's skeleton shattered into many pieces instantly and was practically pulverized, and the lizard was crushed to the ground.
Wain stood silently watching this. Osvald's blow was even more impressive than Sven's battle with the girl who had invaded the bar. It was a power that was beyond Chronicle.
"Well...I didn't expect this lizard to dare to do something so crazy. Dammit, he wanted to destroy the energy he got from Soul Pearl, but win, crazy!" Osvald shook his head.
"I must say that was the most impressive blow I've ever seen..." Wain muttered and canceled the form.
"Huh, thanks. His armor was actually very strong. It took me no small amount of strength to pierce it. Come on. I'll show you how to absorb energy from monsters like this lizard." Osvald said and walked over to the beast.
He flipped the lizard onto its side and walked over to where all the lines were gathering.
"Wain, have you ever absorbed a Soul Pearl?"
"Yes."
"Great, so this is going to be easier than I thought. You have to put your hand to the core and squeeze it, as if you were breaking a pearl. The energy will fly in different directions, but you don't let that happen. Absorb the currents, take your time and do it right and precisely, then you'll see the change."
"Got it." Wain nodded and walked over to the lizard.
He touched the lines and squeezed them with all his might. The core shattered, and powerful energy streams rushed out, but Wain immediately began to absorb them. He didn't miss a single particle.
Osvald watched the process closely. He thought he would have to help, but Wain managed without advice.
'Is he acting intuitively? Though given that he's absorbed A Soul Pearl before, it's not surprising, but this is the first time he's done it with Majesty.'
[You have absorbed a small portion of Soul Pearl's energy]
[You've gotten on the path of power and already unlocked Majesty]
[Majesty Crystal has been created]
[Majesty Crystal has been filled to 35%]
Several messages appeared before Wain, and deep in his mind, a change occurred. In the center of the Soul Altar, a small, white crystal appeared below the Main Soul, a one-third brightly glowing while the rest was dim. Two white particles hovered beside the crystal.
"So, how does it feel?"
"It's nice, but there's something I don't understand. Why did this crystal only appear now? After all, this wasn't the first time I'd absorbed the energy of Soul Pearl."
"It's simple. You had to get a Majesty. For that, you had to perform a miracle or defeat a legend, but with Soul Pearls, you couldn't do that. Now the situation has changed, and you understand the true value of the pearls."
"I see." Wain looked at the destruction left by the battle and muttered, "What are we going to do...?"
Wain didn't finish and fell unconscious.
"Huh, young man, you wasted too much energy, but your fight was impressive. If that lizard hadn't decided on a suicide stunt, you would have definitely won." Osvald smirked and slung Wain on his shoulder.
He looked at the hill in the distance and headed in that direction.

'Hmm, looks like they're not going to give up.' Osvald smirked as he looked at the squads of beetles flying toward him.
