After passing through another set of doors, they entered a large dungeon-like chamber filled with cages that held chained elemental beasts, their groans and growls echoing all around them.
"Hm, what? These are the only types you have? What about the higher-level elemental beasts you

Chapter 74- Concealing Soul and Death
Calvin raised his cross bag and pulled out the elemental core of the Nascent Beast Lord he'd just killed.The black, basketball-sized orb, still stained with fresh blood, radiated dense darkness elemental energy.Calvin looked from the elemental core to the enormous spatial tear suspended above the city before muttering, "Ah... I see why that thing suddenly began ascending into a Beast Lord. It devoured the rift's elemental core and became the core of the rift space itself, which is why its power could influence the entire rift space so easily.Now that I've killed it and removed its core, the rift space has started collapsing."Like every rift space that had lost its elemental core, it had become unstable and, whenever that happened, the world's laws created a spatial tear connecting the collapsing rift to the real world.It wasn't simply an escape route, but the world's method of reclaiming everything that belonged to it before the rift space com
Chapter 73- Lamb to the Slaughter
The Nascent Beast Lord's lone crimson eye widened in shock, and it immediately tried to pull its claw back, but Calvin's grip didn't budge no matter how much strength it poured into the attempt.Then, Calvin tightened his grip on the claw in his hand, and with a crunch, cracks spread across it before it shattered into pieces, crumbling into fragments that fell to the ground within seconds.The Nascent Beast Lord immediately leapt backwards, opening up some distance between itself and Calvin as the look in its eye completely changed.[How?!] it demanded.Calvin slowly lowered his hand and brushed the dust off it before looking directly at the Nascent Beast Lord."You're the one who pulled me into this spiritual world, so why are you so surprised?"He scoffed at the elemental beast as he cracked his knuckles, saying, "A person's strength here isn't determined by the strength of their physical body, but by the strength of another important aspe
Chapter 72- In the Mind's Eye
The Nascent Beast Lord’s massive claws swept across the air one after another while its gigantic jaws snapped repeatedly, each attack coming so quickly that Calvin had no opportunity to create distance.He continuously reshaped darkness elemental energy around himself, changing blades into shields, shields into spears, and spears back into blades almost instantly as he relied upon the overwhelming amount of ambient darkness elemental energy surrounding the storm rather than his own reserves.Every construct appeared only for the instant it was needed before immediately becoming something entirely different, allowing Calvin to hold his ground against an opponent whose raw physical strength and elemental energy reserves far exceeded his own.Sweat continuously rolled down Calvin's forehead despite the rain pouring over him, his breathing becoming heavier with every exchange as the burden of controlling such an enormous amount of ambient darkness elemental en
Chapter 71- Darkness Elemental Authority
"Darkness Elemental Authority: Obscuration."The Authority that governed secrecy and obscurity, concealing presence, souls, memories, and even aspects of fate.The instant those words declaring the Authority of the Darkness Elemental King left Calvin's lips, a massive burst of darkness elemental energy erupted from his body.The surrounding darkness elemental energy immediately fell under Calvin's control, ripped away from the Nascent Beast Lord's influence, before it enveloped Calvin and everything around him.A gigantic sphere of darkness appeared in the sky, surrounding the cocoon of the Nascent Beast Lord and concealing its existence from the thousands of bats flying towards it.To those bats that had been returning to deliver the energy they carried to the Nascent Beast Lord by cannibalising one another and concentrating that energy, the Nascent Beast Lord had suddenly vanished.They could no longer perceive its existen
Chapter 70- Severing the Supply
As Calvin moved through the city, the other elementalists also noticed that the bats had begun flying back toward the centre.The two elementalists on the bikes whom Calvin had encountered earlier frowned at the sight."That's not good," one of them said. "These bats suddenly stopped attacking. The only explanation is that whatever's inside that cocoon we found a few days ago is calling them back.""Could that thing be accelerating its emergence?" the wind elementalist asked.The two of them, both C-rank elementalists, together with the lightning elementalist and the wounded researcher Calvin had spoken with earlier, were actually members of the same team.A few days earlier, they had attempted to investigate the centre of the storm and had discovered the cocoon hidden within it. However, they had been intercepted by the bats and had even lost one of their comrades because of how many bats had attacked them."Now's not the time. We have to f
Chapter 69- The Nascent Beast Lord
The lightning elementalist slowly turned toward Calvin, and even with the mask covering their face, Calvin could tell their eyes had definitely widened in shock."So," Calvin said, "explain exactly what's been happening inside this rift. What are these bats, and why do they keep reviving?""I should be asking you that," the elementalist shot back immediately. "How the hell did you kill it permanently?! What did you do to it? Is it your element? Wait... what element are you? That spike of... wait... darkness?"The lightning elementalist fired one question after another, their tone full of disbelief.Calvin stepped forward, reached out, and grabbed the person by the front of their clothes, pulling them closer."Answer my questions already," he demanded. "What the hell are these bats, and where did they come from?""We don't know either. I don't know. Nobody does," the lightning elementalist replied, pushing Calvin's arm away from their shirt.<
