The shockwave rippled across the area as the phoenix’s eyes opened to look at Iron, who was touching its beak.

At that moment, Iron felt like the whole world stopped and only he and the phoenix were the only beings that remained in this red world.

The anger, pain, sadness and despair that the phoenix felt from the torture that it suffered under the hands of the dark elves flowed into Iron. On the other hand, the pain and anger that Iron had felt from the harsh and gruesome experiences that he went through in his previous life also flowed into the phoenix.

Their anger and fury resonated with each other creating a strange sense of feeling that spread in their hearts.

―You have temporarily assimilated with the retrieved Phoenix.

―With the temporary contract created between the Divine Beast Phoenix and the temporary contractor, all of the strength and energy that entered the dimensional crack had been retrieved and recovered.

―The Phoenix can exert its full power for 20 minutes.

―Ppiyooooo!

Red energy broke out from the phoenix’s body as it spread its wings and stood up in anger. The phoenix’s angry cry threw back the approaching dark elves.

The phoenix’s simple show of strength through its single cry was more than enough to throw the hostile dark elves away. A feat worthy for someone hailed as a phantom species.

However, despite throwing the dark elves and creating a sea of fire, the phoenix still couldn’t hold back its anger. It continued to wreak havoc as it vented out all of the anger and frustration that it had hidden deep inside. Iron, who could feel the extent of the phoenix’s anger, resentment, frustration and pain, knew that it was breathing out all of this flames to show them the sufferings that it had been through.

“You’ve done well.”

Tears dripped from the phoenix’s huge eyes when it heard Iron’s words.

Then, it turned to stare at the four black towers that constrained itself. These towers sucked its powers dry to forcibly open the crack behind its body. The phoenix looked at it hatefully as it destroyed each and every single one of the towers. It even breathed out flames to turn it into powder as if just a single debris was a complete affront to its existence.

With the four towers breaking, the crack gradually began to fade away as the black force slowly dispersed.

―The dimensional crack in the Winter Mountains has been stopped. Seal it completely to remove the danger from the Winter Mountains.
