Cancer. On earth, when an ignorant human hears the term cancer, they immediately associate it with death and proceed to sink into a maze of despair.
Ignorant of the gift they have been given, they try desperately to cut out the abnormal growth of the cells. An ability that when used appropriately with the right practice, medication, and treatment, becoming a Titan would be as easy as flowing water! This is the basis of the Titan gene!
Erian's body inflated rapidly as his cells massively produced billions of cells that expanded rapidly like rapidly accelerated cancer cells.
'',
In the blink of an eye, Erian's body expanded swiftly until he became a ten meters tall abomination. Crazy muscles and tissue bulging out like the statue of a dignified greek God!
There was no time for Erian to revel in the feeling of absolute strength nor did he allow himself to be distracted by the sudden impulse that overtook him with the surge of power coursing through his veins; it was as though he could break the universe in a single fist. The instant he morphed, he stomped his feet heavily to the ground and in that instant, the land within half a kilometer radius shattered like it was made of glass!
The aftershock lifted the shattered land to the sky, filling the air with boulders made of a large pile of sand and rocks of different sizes; the biggest, a hundred-meter radius.
Along with the cloud of thick dust, the large clump of sand and boulders in the air made it impossible for anyone to see more through a meter radius.
"Crackle!"
The air crackled explosively, releasing a loud imploding sound along with a large radius of shockwave blast as Erian's body tore through the fog, shooting backward like an artillery shell! His body twisted in mid-air as he tapped on a boulder still floating in the air due to the shockwave of the blast.
Within that moving speed, Erian suddenly canceled his Titan form, and his more 10 meters tall body was reduced to a mere almost 2 meters tall human. Mucus and amniotic fluids spurted out from his amputated shoulder, scattering in the air as his two newly grown arms instantly regenerated with sudden speed.
His leg tapped forcefully on the boulder and with another explosive sound, the boulder shattered into a cloud of dust, shooting backward in opposite direction like bullets sprayed from a machine gun.
Like a bouncing bullet gaining inertia with every hit, Erian's speed continued to increase as he moved from one boulder to another in mid-air, rapidly gaining acceleration with every millisecond passed. His reaction speed had multiplied explosively at this point, reaching an unprecedented level as he used his brain to its limit. Compared to the previous time he battled with Craigh, his body could now react in accordance to his thoughts, moving the exact instant
In just a single second, his small body had crossed the distance of half a kilometer, breaking through the thick cloud of dust he had created. The sudden inertia he had gained from the explosive zig-zag reduced, making his body drop as he drew an arc out from the cloud of dust, landing finally on the ground,
This route was the opposite direction of which he had taken. He didn't dare risk passing by his original route since the insanely beautiful Crimson Envoy was in that direction, he could only choose a more different direction.
"Just another kilometer more.'' The demarcating wall of this forbidden zone was about a hundred meters tall without an exit. Time eroded it, creating several holes and cracks on the demarcating walls allowing for Erian to enter and exit.
The floating boulders and clumps of sand lost the force assisting them to resist gravity. They dropped to the ground like a storm of hailstones, causing numerous loud sounds as they finally collided to the ground
Utilizing the kinetic energy, Erian rolled on the ground, crossing a hundred meters in a single leap. Inadvertently, he glanced backward at the cloud of fog, with most of the boulders down, Erian's eyesight could faintly see through the fog and he could see the devilishly handsome envoy still standing in the same position, with a soft smile on his face.
What shocked Erian was that the Envoy was staring directing at him. The stare seems to not be affected by the fog or objects. It was as though the obstacles Erian had created did nothing to obstruct the gaze of the man. But everything about it seemed mechanical, unlike a normal human smile. He immediately started to develop a bad feeling.
He could faintly see the man's lips move to form a few words he could not understand but in the next moment, he suddenly heard the voice resounded from right behind him.
"Extreme regeneration. I'm curious what else you have up your sleeve."
'How could the soundwaves be so fast?' A chill crept down Erian's spine, into his heart. Immediately, the wind rippled like waves in water as Erian's muscles shook violently, simultaneously twisting his waist, he turned around.
? "Rooooar!!!" "Boom!!!"
Another peal of golden thunder struck out from the vacuum of space, arcing brilliantly from the sky, branching through the air as it exploded into the ground!
The force instantly shattered the entire ground within a hundred meter radius, its shockwave blasting everything and anything into smithereens.
Slowing everything down, Erian's bones grew rapidly, ripping through his flesh as they elongated massively. His muscles followed, inflating as they grew to cover the expanded bones, regenerating until he formed a ten meter tall titan.
It was then he saw the envoy had appeared right behind him like a specter. With the same mechanical smile, seemingly unaffected by the destructive lightning of his transformation.
Erian felt his heart leap out of his chest. But his gaze hardened and his nuclear pulse glowed as a massive amount of nuclear energy erupted from within him with a blast, covering everything within a kilometer radius.
"Shiiiin!"A tiny spark.
"RUUUUUUUUMBLE!!!"
The air within an entire kilometer radius combusted explosively as an inferno the temperature of a thousand degrees celsius covered shrouded the forbidden zone.
