With Cedric now an Ultimate Lord, he was finally free of all restraints.
Of course, such freedom came at a price.
But Cedric didn't care.
Behind him, the case on his back began to tremble violently, as if it could no longer be contained. It seemed ready to burst open at any moment.

His talent needed to awaken one more time.

Boom—
Before humanity could make their next move, a dark, malevolent will surged out from the depths of the Supreme Abyssal, accompanied by an overwhelming wave of demon energy.
"Retreat now!"
Mike growled, ordering White Dog and Cerberus to take Calderon and the others away.
Their part in this was done.
If possible, Mike would have liked them to stay and witness what was about to happen. At least then, they could say they had seen history in the making.
