As the announcement sounded in the minds of Evan, Layla, Rick, Joe, Breya, and Emilia, the dreaded energies that clashed against each other rippled as it stirred the hairs of each party, causing them to flow backward in a wild manner.

Following this, the flames that burned in the surroundings quickly vanished as Valoz, now in his new body, lifted his head and roared, "Uraaaggghhhh!" 

His power rose immensely with his shout, as multi-colored lights started to gather towards his giant form in bulks, pushing his combat power to its peak.

Pira also had a similar change, as her previous form grew a bit larger, now being a size two times taller than an average human. Her genetic blood energy also skyrocketed them as she held her arms to the side, causing a few circular looking blades that spun to levitate around her.

Evan narrowed his eyes at this, the stats for both enemies appearing before him on a screen.

'This will be a tough one, but it should be more than enough for a win, isn't it... partner...' Evan thought as his eyes ran over the black edge of the Havengaurd.

As if the sword heard him, it hummed as it was shrouded by both Evan's Spirit Power and Battle Energy, bringing his offensive power far beyond the standards of his base stats.

"Watch yourselves," Evan said, not looking at Joe and the others as he bolted forward like a blurry before turning into a crimson flash.

Valoz, who had only now conjured his power, snorted as he saw Evan moved; he took a heavy step forward and similarly blurred before turning into a blood-like flash of light. In moments, both had arrived before each other, staring menacingly at the other party before Valoz struck first.

"Die!" Valoz yelled with a red light in eyes as he struck his giant fist forward, causing the wind to screech due to the force by which it swept through the air.

'First, I'll compare our power.'

Evan thought as he pierced his Havengaurd towards Valoz's fist; the two attack soon after colliding as it sent a shockwave across the entire pit, blasting apart nearby boulders due to the clash of power, as most went hurling across the distance.

Joe and the others remained unphased by this their attention set directly onto Pira, awaiting her movements.

By this time, the dust cloud and energies from the previous collision had started to fade as both Evan's and Valoz's figures were revealed. Valoz stood at the center with a tiny blood mark on his massive finger, which pressed against the tip of Evan's sword.

However, unlike Valoz, Evan, who held his sword, stared at him with a stern look on his face as his arm started to tremble. Blood flowed down his palm as if his skin on his fingers had burst due to the strain.

'So strong, I might not be able to resist his full power blows. It looks like I'll need to give this one everything I've got,' Evan thought with a cold glint in his eyes as his hair rose above his head while his crimson-colored battle energy scattered around him.

Valoz sneered as he saw Evan's change; without even moving from his current stance, he spoke, "How foolish, did you think that by ruining my fusion, you would be a match for my current power? I'll show you the difference between a primal and non-primal."

Moments after those words, Valoz body erupted with his towering amounts of genetic blood power once again, causing a dense killing aura to scatter across the entire room, one that could influence any being.

Emilia and Layla, who were previously observing Pira, became a bit stirred by this power as the images of a sinister being appeared in their minds, its evil-looking eyes glaring at them as if it was summoning them to hell.

"Ahh!" Both Layla and Emilia cried out due to the sudden attack.

"Huh, what the hell?" Joe asked in alarm as he turned his head and looked at the two, which seemed to have fallen into an unknown state.

Evan seeing this was shocked; his face grew pale when he shouted, "Hurry and wake them up; it's this bastard's skill!" 

"Haha, it's too late!" Valoz said in reply as he promptly attacked Evan again, this time his fist was emanating with his immense blood genetic power, causing Evan's eyes to shrink due to the oppressive force.

'Damn! He's still a notch faster than me,' Evan cursed in his mind as he drew back while crossing both of his swords before him; he knew that he wouldn't be able to avoid it in time.

As expected, the fist soon after smashed onto the swords with a loud bang. It then knocked Evan towards the distance with another shockwave. Evan's body then flew like a rocket, as if vanished from this area; Valoz didn't even hesitate as he stomped the ground and jumped towards him, taking their battle to a new destination.

"Evan!" Joe said as he similarly saw Evan got knocked away; at this moment, he was suddenly confused due to the sudden shift, but sadly for him, this wasn't the last problem.

"Joe, look out!" Rick shouted from behind as it was unknown when Pira had vanished from her previous location.

Instantly, before Joe could even understand the change, Pira had arrived before him, her face carrying a menacing grin as she pointed her finger towards his head.

"Prepare for death!" 

Her cold voice sounded through the entire area, as Joe stared at the finger before him in shock, beckoning the start of a menacing battle.
