"I can't understand the fighting spirit that vampires develop over their long lives, but I can accept it."

“I already saw it yesterday.”

Makoto Haramura shrugged in return, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, and terrifying magical power erupted directly from his body.

The pale golden demonic energy stained his pupils, turning his eyes into golden pupils that would never go out, like the sun.

"Very good, it was worth waiting here for a while."

Makoto Haramura's magic erupted, resulting in Jada's smile—a smile of extreme joy.

"Very good, that's more like it!"

Jada also unleashed her own magic.

The atmosphere suddenly trembled, as if a storm was about to break, causing the sky to darken and swirl with dark clouds.

"Is this what a battle between True Ancestors is like?"

Iblisbelle has already retreated again and again.

In terms of strength, he is already in the strongest tier below the True Ancestor. The only ones who can compare to him are his brothers and sisters and those second-generation vampire elders who have lived for countless years.

He knew that there was an insurmountable gap between himself and the True Ancestor.

Yesterday's battle, which seemed like a joke, has already demonstrated this fact.

But things are clearly different now.

Even with his strength, he was prevented from entering the best viewing position on the battlefield between these two True Ancestors by this terrifying magic.

Iblisbell hesitated for a second, then a pair of black bat wings unfurled behind him, and he soared into the sky.

This is his ability as a descendant of the Second True Ancestor, a G-type ability.

Since the lateral pressure has already made him feel threatened, then he can choose the vertical direction.

"Indeed, choosing to support this person was the right decision."

"At least this person has good intentions."

Similarly, Xian Gu Yong, who had arrived on the island long ago, also withdrew from the central area.

The atmosphere was roaring.

The sky was roaring.

The ground was rumbling.

The ocean is roaring.

Xian Gu Yong found it hard to imagine, but she could understand the impact if the familiar beast had already been released.

But right now, these two True Ancestors are simply clashing their magic.

There was no attack; it was merely a pure clash of magical energy that had already reached the point of altering the celestial phenomena.

It's fortunate that such power is exerted on a natural island.

If the battle between the Third Progenitor and the Fourth Progenitor broke out on Itogami Island, and both Progenitors fought with their true fury, then the sinking of Itogami Island would be the best possible outcome; there would be no other.

At that time, none of the residents of Itogami Island will survive.

Every single one of those foolish high-ranking officials in the Japanese government should be beheaded.

Other problems can be covered up by outbreaks of plague or accidental deaths; even if tens of thousands of people die, it can be suppressed.

However, if an entire artificial island were destroyed, and all the people living on it perished, no one could bear that responsibility.

Therefore, Xian Gu Yong is now glad for his choice.

After all, the Fourth Progenitor they chose was exceptionally gentle and never treated other races and people as nothing.

Of all the many Flame Banquets held, this is the first time one has resulted in almost no losses.

Of course, this was also the last time it happened.

……

Makoto Haramura and Jada simultaneously unleashed their strongest magical powers, and the two pillars formed by their magical power shot straight into the sky.

immediately!

Jia Da suddenly smiled, and the soaring magic power emanating from her body stirred up the dark clouds in the sky, making it seem as if the clouds themselves were descending, a truly earth-shattering event.

No, that's not right, it's not just a "seem" or "appearance".

At Jia Da's call, the dark, heavy clouds seemed to actually descend.

Moreover, those were not ordinary clouds; they were thunderstorm clouds that constantly flashed with blue lightning.

"It's actually a familiar in its natural state."

"I thought these things were all in the form of animals."

Makoto Haramura was slightly surprised for a moment, but only for a moment.

However, Jada did not take advantage of this opening to launch an attack. Instead, she kept the dark cloud there, staring intently at Makoto Haramura.

"Come on, show me your power."

"Then, as you wish."

Makoto Haramura's gaze instantly turned cold, and the golden light emanating from his body shone like a blazing sun.

"—The Lion's Gold".

Under the call of Makoto Haramura's magic, the Star Beast emerged from its own pattern within the golden millstone.

It was a lion covered in armor formed from dazzling lightning, its entire body gleaming with a golden hue.

Lei Shi was over ten meters long, and the magical energy emanating from his body was not only no less than that of the familiars summoned by Jia Da, but even slightly surpassed it.

"No, this quality."

Jada's pupils suddenly narrowed to pinpoints; clearly, the familiar summoned by Haramura Makoto had exceeded her expectations.

"Here you are, Your Highness."

Haramura Makoto made a sound that was neither a smile nor a laugh.

"Rather than me trying not to disappoint you, I hope you won't disappoint me."

As he spoke, the giant lion of lightning behind Makoto Haramura suddenly roared.

"Roar-!"

Amidst this earth-shattering roar, the giant lion, crackling with lightning, truly transformed into lightning and hurtled towards the familiar summoned by Jada.

Wherever it passed, the air was completely evaporated by the extremely high current, emitting an unpleasant stench, while the scattered arcs of electricity swept across the ground, carving deep craters one after another.

This is a True Ancestor-level familiar beast.

The summoning of such a force is a natural disaster, one that humanity cannot withstand.

"Go! — Kamasutori."

Instead of being alarmed, Jada was delighted. At her command, a thick bolt of blue lightning shot out from the thunderclouds above her head toward the charging lion.

"boom--!"

Two incredibly powerful energy waves collided in the very center of the island, sending countless bolts of lightning flying. The shockwaves they emitted swept out indiscriminately, shaking the surrounding area for tens of kilometers.

Despite her efforts to maintain her figure, Xian Gu Yong couldn't help but sigh once again.

Fortunately, this island is a short distance from the main island of Itogami Island; otherwise, the aftershocks of this energy alone would have been enough to paralyze Itogami Island.

Keep in mind, this was a thunderstorm! For a high-tech city, this is undoubtedly a disaster second only to earthquakes and tsunamis.

"This sacred power can no longer be called magic, nor is it divine power; it is a new power."

Jada had seen through everything.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the lightning released by the summoned beasts of Jada in mid-air had been completely suppressed by the giant lion of lightning, and was even being continuously extinguished and advanced.

Even though it had completely transformed into lightning, the Thunder Lion's excited roar still emanated from within the golden pillar of light.

It was in this roar that the 'Lion of Gold', carrying unparalleled power, completely blasted away Jada's attack, cruelly tearing the summoned beasts to shreds in mid-air.

Despite both being True Ancestor-level Familiars, Jada's Familiar was completely suppressed by Haramura Makoto's Familiar.

However, this is only to be expected.

First, let's set aside the fact that Makoto Haramura has already transformed his familiars into star beasts.

It's important to know that each True Ancestor possesses more than two digits of familiars, something that ordinary vampires simply cannot do.

However, there are differences in the number of familiars that True Ancestors control.

Just like the First Progenitor, the Vampire War King who commands seventy-two familiars, these familiars are like natural disasters, and he possesses seventy-two of them.

The Second True Ancestor also commands nineteen beasts of the Heavenly Calamity level.

The third progenitor, also known as Jiada, also commanded a total of twenty-seven familiar beasts.

On the other hand, the Fourth Ancestor, although she also possessed more than two digits of familiars, only controlled twelve.

If we use this as a comparison, then the Fourth True Ancestor is the weakest of all the True Ancestors.

The First True Ancestor alone could defeat all three of them.

The First True Ancestor is the strongest True Ancestor.

But is that really the case?

No, not at all. On the contrary, the Fourth Ancestor, who has the fewest number of familiars, is the strongest Ancestor.

This shows that the number of familiars is not the standard for measuring strength; quality is the true standard.

Because each of the Fourth Progenitor's familiars surpasses that of the other Progenitors' familiars, the Fourth Progenitor is the strongest Progenitor.

Of course, normally, even if there is suppression, it wouldn't be this obvious.

This was also why Jiada was somewhat surprised at first.

However, what Haramura Makoto is holding now is not a familiar, but a star beast. With these two factors combined, the current situation is quite normal.

Moreover, compared to yesterday, Makoto Haramura has now gathered all the Star Beasts and is fully unleashing the power of the 'Star Wheel'.

"Now I'll show you the power of a child, Jada."

"If we don't release her soon, this mentally ill person is giving me a real headache."

Without hesitation, Makoto Haramura summoned his newest star beast.

"—'Poison of Flame'."

A towering purple mist surged forth before Makoto Haramura, and two ferocious giant pythons emerged from the mist, their forked tongues flicking out.

"hiss!"

Unlike the Lion King, the black python did not roar loudly; it simply opened its gaping maw and pointed it toward Jada.

The dark purple mist instantly spread outwards, indiscriminately influencing friend and foe alike.

Whether it's an organic or inorganic life form that comes into contact with this mist, they all disappear from the world without any warning the moment they touch it.

"What a venomous beast."

"I've seen many familiars that can release poison, but this is the first time I've seen one that can use poison to this extent."

"Is this the new familiar you just summoned, representing the power of Ophiuchus?"

Jada excitedly revealed her fangs, her eyes practically shining as she looked at Haramura Makoto.

Makoto Haramura nodded directly, confirming Jada's guess.

"Yes."

Chapter 235 The Legend of Ophiuchus

"Yes."

"The legend of Ophiuchus comes from a famous healer in ancient Greek mythology named Asclepius."

In the myth of Ophiuchus, Asclepius was the child born from an affair between Apollo's wife and a prince from a neighboring country.
