On top of a Tier 5 Peacock that had wide spanning wings and shimmering with multi colored radiance.
Elder Commander Lidar stared ahead toward the magnetic Beast Lord, as well as the other Elder Beast Commanders standing behind her on this massive beast crossing the skies.
“Beast Lord Vishpala…for you to come with us is more than we could ever ask.”
Lidar ingratiated himself as he spoke towards this powerful Beast Lord who chose to bring their main forces towards the City of Anan instead of just allowing the Elven Beast Commanders to take the detour and eradicate the one who took down Elder Dadarius.
At his words, Beast Lord Vishpala smiled and waved her hand dismissively, waves of charm radiating from her.
“Since we are all nearby, let’s do things thoroughly. Sometimes, even if it is an ant, there is no harm in bringing millions of elephants to crush it.”
…!
Her words were resonant atop the Aerial Beast as soon, the outline of the City of Anan became clear to them.
And…
“Oh?”
The gorgeous brows of the Beast Lord rose as she squinted her eyes at the outline of a massive Lightning Sparrow above the walls of this city- its aura bright as its power was not something to ignore!
“Interesting, what may that be?”
Her body had tendrils of multicolored light rise from her feet as the Aerial Beast below her became ever faster, her chest shining brilliantly with the Seven Gem Sockers that held rings of white, blue, and red each!
As they came forward, the earth behind them trembled as tides of Beasts followed their lead.
—
Alexander flew atop the Caladrius, Nueire, as this Minion spoke out jubilantly.
“Ascendant Master…just what is that dazzling star above you and all of us? With it, I feel like I have gained multiple more lives, with my power…oh!”
The excitement on the Caladrius was palpable.
It was worried when it heard of the army containing Elven Beasts, Orc Beasts, and the regal Peacock Beasts that may make their way here, but now…it truly felt like it could do anything.
Its sensation of joy was passed through its connection to Alexander as he felt it, too.
At this moment, as he actually went towards powerful Beasts that were intent on assaulting an Ascendant Branch. A Stronghold filled with Ascendant Gem Masters!
He should feel a sense of fear.
He should even possibly feel dread.
But this…
What exactly was this sensation he felt right now?
Was it…excitement? No.
It was too contained.
Too logical.
This was…
[The Eye of the Enneagram has begun to open after a critical level of lifeforce has been absorbed.]
From his chest.
A hazy white glow spread out and went to bathe his whole body, but the vast majority of it clustered itself in his head.
In his mind!
[The Innate Feature of the Eye of the Enneagram- Analysis, has been unlocked.]
[The Innate Feature of the Eye of the Enneagram- Meta Comprehension, has been unlocked.]
Analysis. Experience tales at freewebnovel
Meta Comprehension.
One seemed fairly easy to understand, while the other…Alexander could tell that this was the cause of the unique sensation he currently felt.
[Under Analysis, The Enneagram can now accurately gauge the numerical values of Vigor and Energeia of other Entities visible to your naked eye apart from your Minions.]
[Under Meta Comprehension, your mind is placed in a constant state of increased clarity, calmness, and hypercognition as you can instantaneously take in complex waves of information and process them rapidly- with your mental state constantly analyzing information to provide you with the best possible outcomes.
This feature is the preliminary feature required to begin operating before the later Feature of the Enneagram, Ability Gem Design, can be unlocked.]
…!
Apart from the boons of the Gem Constellation, the Enneagram had reached a point where its [Eye] had begun to open.
At the center of his chest, Alexander could see the faint outline of a pupil only just beginning to shine- its light so bright that it looked like it could encompass everything!
A mere glimmer of this light had begun to leak out as with it, the wonders of Analysis and Meta Comprehension came.
This wasn’t to mention the idea of a feature known as [Ability Gem Design] that would be available later on down the line!
“I see…”
Alexander spoke out with a sense of calm serenity as his eyes seemed to be absorbing all sources of light.
Everything he saw.
Everything he knew.
Everything he heard.
All of it seemed to settle in his mind and be understood instantly with the boons of Meta Comprehension, and after that…all of it began to be compartmentalized as what could bring him the best possible outcomes was put at the forefront.
This was the cooling sensation he felt as he knew his state of mind and even who he considered himself to be had taken a large shift in disposition!
As he stood on the Caladrius, he felt the rest of the Beasts under him converging where the Lightning Sparrow was.
He felt Claire, who flashed with lightning and appeared beside him, and the figures of Azazel and other Gem Masters, who were wrapped with the vines of Nueire and brought onto her back as well.
He felt like he analyzed every single possible thing as the first action he wanted to take from here…
“Uncle Azazel, do you want to get even stronger?”
…!
The eyes of the Gem Master in his 40s landed unstable atop Nueire as he looked towards Alexander with an astonished gaze.
On his chest, he already had five dazzling Gem Sockets after they were transplanted from Elder Dadarius.
But he could get even stronger? How would such a thing even be possible?
Alexander’s eyes shone with a calculative light as he pointed to the Beast below him and the others that were running on the City below to face the coming army.
“These Beasts below me…I can extend the same power to you as well. The only…awkward part of it is that a strong connection will be formed between you and me. Of course, I would never force you to do anything you don’t want to.”
…!
Something he didn’t wish to entertain in his mind in the last day.
His Minion King Gem Recipe could dominate…any Life Form that submitted to make them a Minion.
It never stated that it only had to be Beasts.
But even the idea alone of making another Human being, much less a Gem Master he considered an Uncle as he saw him growing up…it was too difficult in Alexander’s mind before!
But now?
His mind was looking at things from an entirely different perspective. For better or for worse.
Uncle Azazel’s eyes shook as he seemed to think ever so briefly.
And then, he gazed towards the shaking earth in the distance, as well as the terrifying auras they could already feel in the distance.
He breathed out a sigh as he knew his own limitations.
If there truly were Tier 6 Beasts, and even a Beast King- a Tier 7 Beast…even the Ascendant Gem Masters of the Strongholds of the Asmodeus Bloodline would have to siege such beings with hundreds of their Tier 5 Gem Masters and their topmost Tier 6 and 7 Legends!
How could he be confident before them?
So…
“I trust you, Young Master.”
The old Gem Master breathed out and released his sense of control.
At the forefront of the Caladrius, there were absolutely no mental reservations within Alexander as a Golden light shot from his chest and moments after.
HUUM!
A dominating light shot towards a human being as towards it, Azazel simply closed his eyes and allowed it to freely enter the depths of his being.
The scene was shocking for others to see as, beside Alexander, Claire felt her heartbeat getting ever faster as she looked towards Alexander.
Then, with great courage and hesitation…
“Alex…me too. I will…!”
She seemed to be gathering her will.
She also didn’t want to be left behind nor feel helpless to help!
Even in his new state of mind, Alexander turned towards her and stared into her blue eyes.
His calm and analytical eyes smiled just a little as he asked.
“Are you sure?”
…!
Even though his mind looked at everything differently under [Meta Comprehension], this was still his childhood friend. Someone he had grown up playing with, the attachment being much greater!
Her blue eyes locked with his as the lightning within them became even more decisive.
Her fair face, which held traces of beauty, seemed to become more mature at this moment as she nodded with conviction.
And Alexander…moved his hand to pat her head as he had done many times since they were young.
On his chest, another blast of golden light flourished before it sank into Claire’s chest, their eyes locked onto each other as a shocking transformation began!
A distance away, terrifying Beasts were about to come knocking!
