"Re...retame Isha?" Ryuk asked in confusion, but his face changed in the next second when a tiny, narrow slit appeared in Isha's eyes, flaring with a crimson light.
ROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR
A powerful roar shook the entire living room, booming through the area, sending the sofas flying into the walls, and in the next instant—
The sound of the air being sliced into nothing rang out, followed by a heavy collision.
Then, the wall's glass shattered into pieces as a figure smashed through it, soaring away erratically into the air before slamming into another building structure, tearing through the glass and disappearing within.
Blood splashed into the air as Isha dangled its claw to the side, flicking off the red blood, and then—
The sound of its wings beating heavily resounded as it floated a few centimeters above the ground, and then—
The air pressure shot backward instantly as Isha tore through the open glass, ripping apart the entire structure and following rapidly after Ryuk's figure, its predatory aura vastly increasing.
"What... what the hell is going on...?" was Ryuk's thought as he felt a monumental force slam into his head, ripping apart a chunk of flesh.
Before he knew it, he had smashed through two layers of glass and was now in another structure, unable to stop himself from continuously slamming through walls. Soon, he crashed through the last wall, shooting out of the building and disappearing once more into the air.
A powerful roar surged toward Ryuk like a tsunami. He barely sighted the humongous snow-clad figure rushing toward him before another gigantic swipe was taken at him. Instantly, Ryuk crossed his hands into an 'X' shape—
Shockwaves exploded outward once more as he faded into thin air, before a gigantic crater appeared down below, tearing backward and carving a massive gorge into the roadside.
Finally, the gorge stopped after forming a mountain of five meters, and at its foot was none other than Ryuk, looking pathetic with torn clothes and a bleeding face. The three diagonal marks present on his face managed to clinch through one eye and another on the side of his head, but they were slowly healing.
The floor shook as Isha appeared on top of Ryuk. Then, it opened its gigantic maw wide as powerful frost energy began gathering in its mouth, and then—
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
It slammed head-on into Ryuk, burying him within the frost that lasted for a full minute, instantly freezing the shattered ground into nothing and leaving a gigantic white abyss in its wake.
Isha's predatory glance stared at the hole in the ground, huffing loudly.
When it sensed no sign of movement, it raised its head to the sky and then—
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAARRRRRRR
"What... what the hell is that?"
A young man, close to three meters tall, said in shock as he leaped from his bed and ran to his living room, barely sighting the figure of a human flying along with glass shards.
Quickly following behind was none other than a gigantic creature whose aura made his heart chill.
This was none other than Erin GiantKin, the number one student in the hierarchy, and he had been awakened when he felt the growl from a beast that shook his soul with fear even from his sleep.
In an instant, his glass shattered apart as Erin burst through it, soaring after Isha's figure.
But he wasn't the only one.
The entire top ten— even those who had been sleeping— were awakened by the sudden roar and glass-shattering. As they all came out and followed after, suddenly, the sky above the Newcomer area had about a dozen instructors appear in the air, their gazes narrowed at Isha, who was currently roaring out in dominance.
"Is that... a Wyvern?" an instructor asked in shock as the others narrowed their eyes at Isha's figure.
"How did that get there?" another asked.
"Leave the questions for later. It attacked a student. We have to get that guy out of there before he dies to the intense frost," one of the instructors said, beginning to take a step forward.
An inhumane laughter rang out, coming from none other than the ice chasm in the ground beneath Isha.
The icy aura suddenly began shattering into pieces, and a figure slowly stepped out of the chasm.
Isha's roar of dominance stopped as its predatory gaze stared at the figure, which was none other than Ryuk—who had the biggest smile on his face.
"Oh,my little Isha... I never thought you capable of such ferocity," Ryuk stated as he walked out of the chasm, twisting his back and neck once and fixing his shoulders back into their angles as he came out fully.
His shirt had been torn off from the power of Isha's frost breath attack, but right now, he had not a single wound on him, with the various cuts on his face having completely cleared.
In the next instant, the entire air was sliced apart as Isha's claw slapped out toward Ryuk's head with power. A sonic boom erupted forth, but then—
The sound of a loud clap rang throughout, but it was no ordinary clap. Another round of shockwaves rippled through the sky, and the instructors—along with the top ten students, who had managed to arrive first—watched as Ryuk's hand clapped into Isha's claw, both of them bulging their hands to an uncontrollable level.
"You've grown stronger than me, Isha..." Ryuk stated as he felt his hand losing out in the contest of strength.
Isha soon slammed out its second limb, but Ryuk clapped onto it again, stopping it dead in its tracks—but not for long.
Isha began exerting its body weight and pressed onto Ryuk, causing the ground beneath him to shatter into pieces as Ryuk's knees began buckling from the unbearable might running amok within him.
"Isha's strength... it's thrice as much as mine...?" Ryuk's mind analyzed as a prideful smile appeared on his face.
Then, he raised his head to stare into Isha's eyes.
"But still... I'm your King!"
'Activate King's Aura!'
