447: Ezequiel vs everybody (VII)

Ezequiel vs everybody (VII)

The moment Ezequiel pronounced those words, a cut appeared on his forehead, and a stream of white electrified blood emerged from it.1

It moved with a fantastic speed and momentum, forming an ocean above the Supreme Neo-Demon in less than ten seconds, and it did not stop growing as more and more blood emerged from the cut.

Heinz and the others could see the bright, gorgeous, and fantastic magic matrices inside the white electrified blood. 

It should be an artifact. As for its type and Rank, none of them could tell with certainty. The white electrified blood's aura manifested in Rank 6, but the forces and principles that formed it were beyond the Neo-Demons' understanding.

"¡Impossible!"

The Neo-Demons were surprised when they heard that scream and turned to Dante, whose face was full of disbelief.

"What happened?" Heinz spoke to the youngest Neo-Demon while focusing on Ezequiel and the growing sphere of blood above him.

Although the artifact surprised them, it should not have provoked such a violent reaction from Dante.

The Neo-Demon with the Eye of Life and Creation took a moment to calm his heart before speaking.

"That thing is not just an artifact. My third eye showed me a genuine soul and life essence inside it, meaning that the stream of electrified white blood is a living creature, but that is not the most shocking part..." Dante made a pause and focused the Eye of Life and Creation once again into the blood ocean.

"It is a Primordial just like Ezequiel!"

Those words made the mind of the Neo-Demons tremble, and their eyes widened with utter shock as they looked above Ezequiel.

"How could that happen!? Primordials are supposed to be an extinct race. Ezequiel only obtained it thanks to a lucky chance impossible to replicate, and even then, it was fragile. Had he not purified his bloodline time after time, it would have regressed a long time ago. Not even Zatiel could have formed a new one." 

Totto immediately rebuked Dante's words. He had always possessed a scholarly nature and spent most of his free time learning the magic knowledge stored in the Neo-Demon race's archives. His reasoning was not one born of ignorance and made perfect sense.

No matter how amazing Ezequiel was, he couldn't have obtained a Primordial as a companion. Had he given the Primordial Bloodline to someone else, his own would have suffered so much damage that he would have regressed to the Emperor level. 

The fight proved that there was no problem with Ezequiel's bloodline, so no one in the group could explain the creature's origin. 

Luckily, there was someone present that had the answer to their question. 

"That is not a Primordial, at least not a real one. What you are all seeing is a Sanctus Battle Partner."

The Neo-Demons turned to Yami after hearing her words. As for Ezequiel, his entire focus was on the stream of white electrified blood leaving his head. 

Unlike her usual mischievous expression, there was a solemn aura in Yami's face as she focused on the blood ocean.

"Once a second-generation Primordial reaches maturity, he can choose any of the myriad things in existence as a Sanctus Battle Partner. A weapon, a beast, a flower, and even a world can work."

Unlike before, this time, Yami's words draw Ezequiel's attention. His eyes narrowed as he focused on the little girl, and there was a special light in them. 

The information about Sanctus Battle Partners was given to Ezequiel by his bloodline when he reached Rank 5. What concerned him was the term second-generation Primordial.

Primordials appeared when the Epoch started and were born of the cosmic forces that created the Prima Universe. However, they had long disappeared, and not even Zatiel had much information about them, so the idea that the first generation managed to generate offspring did not make sense.

Despite that, Ezequiel was sure the little girl was not lying, and that belief proved correct when she spoke information no one else but him knew.

"After choosing, the Primordial will separate a part of their soul and core bloodline and pour it into the entity, generating an evolutive change in its nature. There would not be backlash or damage to the Primordial despite losing a significant part of his core bloodline and soul since he and the Sanctus Battle Partner are still technically only one being, thanks to their spiritual and physical bond."

The light inside the Supreme Neo-Demon's eyes grew stronger, and slowly his mind began to decipher the mysteries behind the little girl's origin.

"Sanctus Bestia is the title given to a Sanctus Battle Partner of bestial nature. However, Little Brother took a unique approach. Before the transformation, that thing should have been a living artifact with a soul, but it became something unique now, something monstrously beautiful."

Heinz and the other Neo-Demons were looking at Yami with amazement. The information she just gave them was something not even Zatiel knew. 

However, Yami did not have time to care about them. Right now, she was baffled. A few moments ago, she did not know anything about Sanctus Battle Partners, but the blood ocean awoke some of her memories.

Unfortunately, it was just information about the Primordial Race. Darkness still covered all of the memories about her past. 

Yami still had no idea who she was or how she reached the Abyss.

The Neo-Demons wanted to know more, but it seemed Yami could no longer help them, and before they could fully process what they learned, they heard a roar that made the void tremble.

"ARRR!" It sounded like the combination between a wolf's howl, a dragon's roar, and an eagle's screech.

The roar came from the entity above Ezequiel's head that finally emerged completely. It equaled a moon in size and was made purely of white electrified blood.

The illusion of a world's size gargantuan creature appeared behind the blood moon along with the roar. He had the head of a wolf, twelve feathered wings, the body of a dragon, two large horns, and white fur covering his skin.

Those who came from a human background only felt awe and amazement when they saw Entropy, but the reaction of those with a bestial nature was much more intense.

Rax, Kylo, Tyrus, and Juntu almost kneeled when they felt Entropy's aura. If it weren't for their True Wills and Neo-Demons' heritage, they would have succumbed to their instincts.

If they had to explain the feeling Entropy gave them, it would be that of the true king of beasts. 

The illusion vanished after a few seconds, and the only thing left was the blood moon. What they saw was a manifestation of Entropy's soul force.

Although the Sanctus Bestia's power was tremendous, it did not make the Neo-Demons feel threatened. 

They perceived a lack of wisdom in the creature, which would make it impossible to deploy his full battle power. Although he could still crush Rank 5 life forms relying on his instinct and massive body, Entropy could not threaten them.

Unfortunately for them, Ezequiel never intended for Entropy to fight on his own. 

The Supreme Neo-Demon stared at the blood moon and then pronounced two words.

"Entropy. Merge."
