This was Emery's full primal transformation, a terrifying force of nature. His body loomed over Julian, a monstrous figure that fused human form with the raw savagery of a wolf. His muscles bulged with inhuman power, and dark, swirling energy coiled around him like a living shadow. Every breath he took seemed to pulse with an aura of raw, oppressive might, his presence dominating the battlefield.
Julian's confidence, which had been unshakable moments ago, began to waver. A creeping sense of dread settled over him. He had witnessed Emery's transformations before, but never on this scale. This was something far beyond the rival he had faced in the past. All the divine blessings, the heavenly title of the "Heavenly Son" that had elevated him above others, now felt inadequate. Emery's very existence seemed to warp the space around him, an overwhelming presence that crushed Julian's resolve.
