Chapter 58: Monsters

Chapter 58: MonstersEratz's transformation had left everyone speechless. The public, the academy staff, even Catarina herself, all of them stood frozen in awe as Eratz's transformation became complete.

The Terrakrus, loomed behind him. Its amber eyes glowed menacingly, casting a dark, intimidating aura that made the crowd hold their collective breath.

The speaker, his voice cracking with excitement, shouted into the microphone,

"This is... Unbelievable! This is a Terrakrus, one of the rarest and powerful dragons known, has entered the arena! What an unbelievable sight! This beast is known for its unparalleled strength, a true powerhouse, and now it's on the field commanded by the Juggernaut!"

In the hotel, the students of Genova Academy were in absolute shock. Whispers of disbelief spread like wildfire.

"How is this even possible?"

"How could he have tamed a dragon like that?"

"An outcast? There's no way!" Their voices were filled with awe, confusion, and a hint of envy.

The director of Genova Academy stood rigid, her face a mask of disbelief. Slowly, she turned her gaze toward Rowan and Eliza, who both appeared equally stunned.

Rowan's hands were trembling, his mouth slightly agape, while Eliza stared with wide eyes, speechless.

On the field, Catarina instinctively took a step back, her feline eyes widening in shock. The Terrakrus's aura was overwhelming, a palpable weight pressing down on her. She could feel the threat it represented, her heart pounding in her chest.

The dragon's gaze alone felt like it could pierce through her very soul.

But then, Eratz's voice cut through the intensity.

"Stay focused."

Catarina's eyes shifted from the dragon to Eratz. He was partially obscured by the dark shadowy aura, his eyes glowing brightly, like twin embers burning in the darkness.

Before she could even blink, he was above her, his fist descending in a wide, circular arc aimed at her head.

She barely managed to leap out of the way, the force of his punch creating a massive crater in the ground where she had been standing.

Dirt and rocks exploded into the air, and Catarina's heart skipped a beat as she glanced at the impact site while she moved.

"If I had taken that blow directly..."

But Eratz gave her no time to think. He moved with her, mirroring her direction, appearing right in front of her path.

His foot lashed out in a powerful kick, and Catarina twisted her body, narrowly dodging it. She spun, attempting to regain her footing, but Eratz was relentless.

He followed up with a back kick, and she had to duck quickly, barely avoiding the attack.

The kick connected with the ground, and another explosion of force followed, sending shockwaves across the field.

The tiger-like beast, and the swarm of shadow cats moved to assist her, rushing towards Eratz.

But before they could get close, the Thunder Lycaon emerged from the earth, its body crackling with lightning as it intercepted the swarm of shadow cats, engaging them in a fierce battle.

The tiger-like beast continued to chase after Eratz and Catarina, but as it moved closer, a massive shadow loomed above it.

The Terrakrus came crashing down from above, its body slamming into the ground where the tiger had been.

The tiger managed to leap aside just in time, barely avoiding being crushed. It turned to face the Terrakrus, growling low as the dragon roared back, the sound echoing across the entire

arena.

The battle was spectacular. The audience was in heaven, witnessing something far beyond what they had expected.

In the hotel, Genova Academy students sat glued to their screens, their eyes wide, amazed by the intensity of the fight.

"This is way better than in the tournament," one student whispered, unable to tear their eyes away.

Lisa sat in her room, her eyes fixed on the screen, unable to comprehend what she was witnessing.

Ryder, sitting in the stands with Zara and Milo, was equally stunned, his eyes wide with excitement.

"This is insane!" He exclaimed.

This was a real battle between professionals. The beasts were going all out, giving everything they had.

The Terrakrus unleashed devastating area-of-effect attacks, its body crashing into the ground and creating shockwaves that destroyed large portions of the field.

The tiger-like beast fought, attacking the Terrakrus with all its might, but each attack only seemed to make the dragon stronger, its special ability allowing it to grow more powerful with every hit it took.

The more the tiger fought, the more devastating the Terrakrus's attacks became.

Meanwhile, the Thunder Lycaon was engaged in an intense battle of its own.

The shadow cats, numerous and agile, were able to land attacks, forcing the Lycaon to move swiftly, dodging and countering with its lightning-infused strikes.

It was a battle of agility, speed, and endurance, each side trying to outmaneuver the other.

The fight reached its peak, the intensity almost unbearable. Catarina dodged another monstrous strike from Eratz, her breathing ragged, her body feeling the strain.

She could feel herself being cornered, the pressure from Eratz and his beasts pushing her to

her limits.

Desperation began to creep in, her mind racing for a way out.

"... I can't lose... Not today... Not like this!"

Suddenly, something changed. Catarina's eyes widened, a spark igniting within them.

She let out a roar, her aura expanding around her, spreading like wildfire, enveloping her and even swallowing Eratz in its wake.

The crowd gasped, the sudden surge of power catching everyone by surprise. The atmosphere shifted, a strange, mystical energy settling over the arena.

In that moment, it felt as if time slowed, the air becoming thick and heavy, infused with an a magical presence.

The scene seemed to change, an haze falling over everything, a bizarre, almost artistic transformation began to unfold.

The first sound was soft mewling, then another, each echoing in the eerie silence.

The cries seemed to ripple across the arena, their resonance growing more profound, as if emerging from a deeper plane of existence.

Then, in the midst of the haze, a single cat's eye opened, gleaming with an intense, almost

hypnotic light. Sёarch* The novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Colors twisted and swirled, shifting in an unpredictable dance, the edges of the vision blurring, pulsing with an unnatural rhythm.

Catarina's aura twisted, swirling around her, her eyes glowing with a fierce, almost primal

light.

She stood taller, her posture more confident as she stared down Eratz.
