The world around Aether shifted as a deep crimson hue enveloped everything, tainting his vision.
His eyes gleamed a fierce red as he activated his skill, Crimson Veil, revealing a new layer of reality.
Where flesh and blood should have been, the internal workings of the monstrous elephant were now visible..... massive gears, nuts, bolts, and a bizarre network of circuits intertwined like a maze. It was a mechanical nightmare.
No biological organs, no vital points—just intricate, machinery!
'What in the hell is this thing?' Aether thought, moving his gaze to the tusks.
Unlike the rest of the elephant, the tusks were hollow..... Empty. Nothing inside but the cold void.
"Is that thing even alive?" the Principal growled in frustration, her eyes never leaving the beast as it circled the centre, using its trunk to pull the roots.
