While this fusion process wouldn't necessarily lead to pursuit by the Order, it would still involve some degree of 'resistance'. Fukuide Sei has already found a way to deal with this 'resistance', and the previously appeared 'Scargomora' is the answer. It unleashes all the raging energy from the Star of Order, materializing it into a monster.

Such monsters possess a certain level of intelligence, and because their birth is essentially a 'riot,' they spontaneously destroy everything around them. The feedback generated by this destruction further accelerates the fusion process between Belial's genes and the Star of Order.

Unfortunately, for the same reason, Fukuide Sei is currently unable to remotely control the monster he named "Belial Fusion Beast," otherwise, Lord Belial's plan would have been realized much faster.

However, this is not a big problem. Given enough time, such a problem can be solved. Don't underestimate my loyalty to Lord Belial!

Fukuide Kirito laughed wildly as he wandered around the laboratory. As different materials were thrown into the test bench, a new Belial fusion monster was rapidly being created amidst the flashing electric light.

"Well...."

While Fukuide Sei was frantically conducting experiments, Asakura Riku woke up from his slumber. He instinctively tried to move his body, but the soreness all over his body made him open his eyes wide and gasp for breath.

Hearing the noise coming from inside the room, Peijia poked her head out, holding warm water in one hand and bread in the other, and said softly:

"Xiao Lu, you're finally awake. Would you like something to eat? How about fried noodles or bread?"

“That’s great, thank you, Peja.”

Despite his discomfort, Asakura Riku grabbed a plate of fried noodles and began to wolf it down. Seeing how he was eating, Peja quickly went outside and brought over four or five more pieces of bread. Even so, Asakura Riku felt that he was only half full.

"Strange...when did my appetite become so big?"

Asakura Riku rubbed his stomach, and after the hunger that made him want to bite into the blanket subsided, he said somewhat strangely:

"Could it be because I transformed into Geed? But I wasn't that hungry after my last transformation."

Peja shrugged. He couldn't understand it either. Even when Geed was beaten so badly last time, he wasn't like this...

Peijia and Asakura Riku's gazes immediately fell on Gen Ang outside. Gen Ang did not disappoint them; his thoughts immediately echoed in their minds:

"Riku, don't forget, you're still in your juvenile form. The reason you could transform into Geed was because I infused the power of order into your body, thereby activating your Ultra bloodline. When you fought the first monster, the power of order was still present, so it could offset some of the negative effects for you. But this time, you have no external support."

At this point, Gen Subaru noticed the somewhat bewildered looks on Asakura Riku and Peja's faces. After a moment of silent reflection, realizing he might have been being a bit of a riddle, he dropped to the conclusion:

"Your abilities haven't fully developed yet. After transforming into Geed, your active time is generally around three minutes. If the battle is too intense, this time will be shorter. Also, the injuries you suffer in battle, and the accumulated fatigue, will be reflected in your human form. As for your appetite... that's normal, part of normal development. Otherwise, why would I give you so much money every month? A significant portion of that is for your food, Riku."

Upon hearing this, Asakura Riku and Peja couldn't help but shrink back. If it weren't for Gen Subaru's reminder, they would have completely forgotten about the mountain bikes and game consoles.

'However, there is a solution to this problem. Here it is.'

Subaru took out the Star of Order from the little girl Ellie, shook it at Riku Asakura, and said softly;

'The power of the Star of Order, while quite difficult for humans or other living beings to control, is a rather good supplement for the Ultra Warriors.'

At this point, Yuan Mao seemed to have thought of something and said with some emotion:

"Rukuro, your genetic sequence is undoubtedly quite stable, making you a qualified Ultra Warrior. Your lifespan will therefore be extremely long. Even if tens of thousands of years pass, you might still be in your infancy. So, in the future, try to collect as many Stars of Order as possible when fighting monsters. If you want to fight Belial and Reiblood, your current level is completely inadequate to keep up with the pace of the battle."

"Well, don't feel too much pressure. After all, I'm here. I can still play. Trust me, I'll be fine."

371 Yuan Mao-ge, are you alright?

"Of course I believe in Yuan Mao."

Asakura Riku blurted out unconsciously, grinning as he said:

"However, if possible, I would still like to fight alongside you, Gen Subaru. That's how it's portrayed on TV, right? When brothers are of one mind, their strength can break metal!"

Haha, I'm really looking forward to it!

“…Yuan Mao-ge.”

'Um? '

Listening to Gen Subaru's seemingly flat tone, Asakura Riku thought for a moment, then finally decided to get straight to the point and ask frankly:

"Was our father really possessed by the soul of the Reiblood aliens, which led him to commit so many evil deeds?"

'The souls of Reibloodians do indeed amplify the dark side of people's hearts.'

While busy with other things, Gen Subaru continued:

"I experienced something similar before; the Reiblood genes within me were activated, creating another clone. So, I have some authority to speak on this. Belial... I've met Belial from a parallel universe, before he was possessed by the Reiblood soul. He was just a somewhat arrogant, brooding, and prone-to-overthinking old man, not exactly a bad guy."

At this point, Gen Subaru paused, looking at Asakura Riku with a half-smile, and said:

"Belial seems to care about his blood relatives. Maybe he can take you to his home planet, the Land of Light, and register you there. The Land of Light is a great place. I believe you can get more help and companions there."

"And what about you, Yuan Mao-ge?"

Asakura Riku paused slightly, sensing something was amiss. Now he finally realized where the problem lay. He looked at Gen Subaru and said in a low voice:

"Subaru-nii, aren't we brothers? Isn't Belial our common father? Why do I feel... Subaru-nii, it seems like you won't be with us...?"

Asakura Riku didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already clear. At this moment, the Ultra Cub looked at Genji uneasily, which startled Genji, who then chuckled and said:

"You rascal, we've only known each other for less than three days, why are you so reluctant to let me go? Even if you're naturally outgoing, this is progressing way too fast."

"But...aren't we family?"

Asakura Riku looked at Genji Subaru and said seriously:

“You, me, Belial’s father, we are all connected by blood. Even if we were on another planet, we should still be family. Since we are family, we should all be together.”

"Family...how interesting."

Minamoto Subaru murmured with some emotion, then looked at Asakura Riku and said softly:

"It's a pity that I once longed for the arrival of family love, but when it finally came, I could no longer feel the passion in it. Riku, I can't go to the Land of Light with you. I am an Ultra Warrior of Earth, the guardian light of humanity. For this, my hands are stained with blood. I am a butcher destined to go to hell after death."

Gen Subaru's smile vanished, and he spoke in an extremely serious tone:

"The killings I have committed are probably countless in your eyes, but to me, this is necessary justice and deserved judgment. I will continue to uphold this protection for the rest of my life, even if it means going to war with any force. Xiao Lu, if you don't want to be my enemy in the future, then don't hurt humanity or the Earth."

"......"

Asakura Riku and Peja clearly hadn't expected that Genji Subaru had such a crazy side. Even though they were just talking face to face, they could smell a sweet, metallic scent in the air. Peja knew it was the smell of blood, while Asakura Riku knew it was just an illusion.

Even so, Riku Asakura and Peja could clearly realize that the real entity of the projection in front of them was a monster that had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. It was like a volcano, and its past calm did not mean that its power would be reduced much when it erupted.

"I'm sorry, I've had too many things to deal with lately, and I've been away from my home planet for too long, so even in this emotional state, I'm still a bit too excited."

At that moment, Gen Subaru suddenly realized something, his terrifying expression vanished, he let out a long breath, and said softly:

"Xiao Lu, if possible, I hope you can walk a... well... a more normal path to the future. Both Belial and I have walked on the wrong path. But if one day you feel that the rules of the Land of Light are also a kind of constraint for you, then come to Earth to find me. Just hide on Earth and call for me. As long as I am alive, I will appear."

"Yuan Mao-ge... are you really okay?"

Seeing Subaru's sudden shift from rage to calm, Asakura Riku, somewhat worried and cautious, carefully avoiding upsetting his older brother, said softly:

"I feel...you seem to need to get some rest."

"I feel great now. In fact, after abandoning my physical body and becoming a photoion aggregate, my mind remains as clear as ever."

Yuan Mao rubbed his hands together, deliberately dispelling his turbulent emotions and allowing calmness and rationality to regain their footing. This state was the best for his subsequent actions and plans.

"Xiao Lu, next I will teach you how to fight and how to master more skills."

Since Riku Asakura has changed his mind and wants to continue fighting as Geed, Subaru Genji needs to give him some training, at least to teach him how to use his light energy efficiently, instead of using such broad and sweeping attacks.

It's strange, though. Both are inheritors of Belial's genes, yet Asakura Riku's energy reserves are far less than mine. Even if he's still in his infancy, it shouldn't be this low, considering I was also in my infancy back then. Could this astonishing amount of energy be because of Zero...?

Hmm...it doesn't seem to be either. Oh well, that's irrelevant now, let's leave it at that.

Gen Subaru brought his thoughts back to the present, looked at Asakura Riku, and said softly:

"I will train you to have the qualities of a warrior in the shortest amount of time. It will be tough, but if you can complete my tests, I will reward you for each one you achieve. For example, the mountain bike and game console over there, the complete set of Flashman merchandise, or even a trip to the Flashman filming location to do a promotional event..."

"really?"

Riku Asakura rushed to Subaru Minamoto with a speed that even Pei Jia couldn't see clearly, excitedly grasped Subaru's hands, and asked him for confirmation with his eyes that were almost shining and his mouth that seemed to be drooling.

"Of course, these are all just about money, and for you and me, money... isn't really a rare thing."

372 Asakura Riku: My brother is only this small?!

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Upon hearing this, Asakura Riku jumped up in excitement, but Genji Subaru helplessly used his psychic powers to protect his head, preventing him from hitting the ceiling too violently and losing consciousness again...

No, I should have made him pass out.

Forget it, let's not rush it. Let him eat something good first, take care of some chores, and we'll talk about it tonight.

Gen Subaru abandoned his idea of ​​using his telekinesis to knock Asakura Riku unconscious, then gently placed him on the ground. He then instructed him and Peja to return the mountain bike and game console and buy food and daily necessities instead.

Thinking that they could buy the two items as long as they completed the test, Asakura Riku and Pega quickly grabbed the items and prepared to return them.

To be honest, Gen Subaru was wondering whether he should go with them. After all, these two were still young, and if he wasn't good at persuasion, he might end up buying more unnecessary things instead of getting the goods returned.

However, upon further reflection, he realized that this was also a life experience, and there was no need to interfere too much, so Gen Subaru continued to busy himself with his own affairs.

"Boom!!!"

Come again? !

However, less than an hour later, Gen Subaru noticed something unusual, which surprised him. The speed at which monsters appeared was far too fast for Asakura Riku, almost as fast as when he had just transformed.

"Subaru-nii!!!"

Just then, Riku Asakura and Peja rushed into the observatory headquarters. Judging from their appearance, they were busy purchasing daily necessities and had hurriedly returned here via the elevator.

"Monster! This monster is huge!"
