‘’We’ll help you escape…  We are from the hybrid tribe of Zuotia.’’

A group of devotees who have been saved and healed by Naran’s light gathered by the side of Mount Miragin, praying still, aloud for the Creator to save them. And there something’s talking to them; a small creature in big and beautiful wings- A butterfly.

‘’Another of the savage beasts! Creator, please grant us the strength to defeat them!’’

‘’No! We’re not going to hurt you…’’

‘’We believe in the DEOS, we believe in our Lord! beasts have no space in earth.’’

The people who were conditioned by the texts of DEOS chased and hunted the peaceful creature, with a lingering wrath in their hearts they put it in the ground and trampled over its vulnerable and weak body. Killing the creature that tried to offer them peace and help, they felt brave and started to attack the other small creatures alike to the one that they killed.

twentieth page of DEOS

And in it, it is written;

My children, humans, whom I love, you are above everything else that I created. I grant you the authority over the beasts, for they have sinned against me, the Creator of heavens and earth.

Beasts, shame be to ye. These are my words, the Creator, the Lord of the two kingdoms. All the beasts shall perish in the hands of my beloved children, once they stomp their feet on your kingdom, a plague will be delivered to the proud land of the beasts.

Viscor Mukha and Niru are almost worn out, but they refused to stop their fighting until the yearn to be called victorious is fulfilled. While they fight some of Viscor Mukha’s comrades came to assist him in the fight, but the intensity of their power left the army of mantises frozen in their feet, dazed.

‘’You! Come here, I need a help.’’

Viscor Mukha who’s been confident to his abilities and prowess realized that he alone can’t compete to a human armed with a weapon from the godly minims. But reinforcement isn’t what he’s in need of, but a replenishment of his energy- he cut off the head of his trooper and fed on it.

‘’You killed your own men?!’’

‘’It will be a shame if an honorable beast can’t best a mere human on his own.’’

His presence instantly disappeared, blowing up wind with an insane movement speed. He struck Niru with a powerful slash that his arm got severed, marking an end to their battle.

SKSSSSSSH---

Blood drew out of Niru, but the life in him didn’t ceased- He fell on the ground, downward with the symbol, eye of the distortion on his face.

‘’remember my name, Archangel Michael, in service to the great Naran, I will wipe you all in his name.’’

From the high heavens, a being descended, in the name Michael, one of Naran’s angels that were mentioned by Ranja. He has fiery hair, tall, all white, armored in shining metal- called as gold. A being that is truly heavenly. When his feet reached the ground, a great light struck over the place, it caused the beasts to feel fear, they stepped back with a fazed looking face.

Michael and Ranja joined hands to defeat the huge battalion of beasts, while Naran is rescuing the injured people, healing and giving them a safe place to hide.

The people who felt a sudden strength within themselves after praying to the all-powerful Creator, they left the hiding place and charged.

‘’What are they doing?’’

‘’This is our way to Honor the Creator who have granted us the strength!’’

‘’No, go back! You will all die!’’

A ray of blacken energy is shot directly to where the devotees are, and a large number of devotees instantly vanished at impact.

‘’Wait, no! go ba-…’’

Naran ran aback to help the survivors, but found himself shocked upon seeing a pile of dead creatures- butterflies, moths and bees from the hybrid tribe.

‘’Isn’t that King Asofiram? Why is he talking to humans? Where are the ant soldiers? Why aren’t they guarding the king?’’

While a huge group from the hybrid tribe is coming to accompany their king in his goal to help the powerless humans in the midst of the unfair war, the wretched King Asofiram is found dead, its body is all smashed in the ground with its couple of wings broken. They just witnessed the horrible death of their own tribe leader, and the peace they wished to share became nightmare.

It was that time when the people felt very different, they all became thirsty for the smell of beasts’ blood. What happened next is the horrific death of hundreds of the peaceful creatures.

 As the mighty Michael and the powerful Ranja faced the seemingly infinite beasts, a huge being then emerged from the beasts’ side- It’s the beast battalion merging together to form-in a being, fusing all their traits into one.

‘’Was it the one that shot down that powerful ray?’’

‘’That must be it.’’

‘’Gahahaha! You see that? That’s our power when combined into one! The power of our polymerization! You will never defeat us now!’’-And it attacked the two with its multiple arms. It teared through even the combined defense of the two, and even killed even its own men as its giant arm can’t avoid hurting their fellow beasts.

Ranja and Michael, the two beings that came from Naran, had a hard time trying to find a counter and stop the rampaging of the giant monster, but as it continues to attack them, they tried to slash one of its arms and discovered something from it. The arm broke apart…- Its body isn’t actually one, the giant is composed of many individual beasts compressing themselves while adopting same movements to look like one.

‘’Did you see that?’’

‘’Yes… There is no mistaking.’’

As the giant monster attacks, they willingly put themselves in front to shoot a powerful light directly into the approaching arm of the merged beasts.

TTTSSSHHHHH

And it pierced through the arm, breaking the binding of the beasts- destroying all the beast that bonded to from as its arm.

‘’Stop this fight immediately! Niru, the mightiest of the human kingdom has already fallen! The victory is for the kingdom of Zuotia!’’

‘’Niru! I can’t believe it… Is Niru dead?’’

The fight between the polymerized form of the beasts and Naran along with the two heavenly beings have come to its conclusion, as the mantis tribe leader, Viscor Mukha claims their triumph after being victorious against Niru.
