....

Minutes later, on Highway 104 near the rice paddies, Haru gasped for breath as he slowly relaxed his tense muscles.

The recent life-or-death battle against Yama had left his blood racing, but after a grueling fight and using every trick up his sleeve, he had finally managed to defeat the Heretic God.

Or so he thought.

Haru's face suddenly paled. Despite believing he had successfully slain the god, he hadn't felt any influx of power, nor had the egg given him any notification. To avoid misjudging the situation, he quickly entered his soul space to check the egg's analysis.

The only rule regarding death energy within the egg confirmed Haru's fear: the Heretic God Yama wasn't dead.

The Core within him slowly revolved, his body emitting a faint green glow. He activated his Life Authority, despite his fatigue, and the Earth Veins slowly replenished his depleted energy. Sensing the clear anomaly, Haru became wary, his body tensing up.

Thud, thud. Footsteps echoed behind him. Haru spun around to face the approaching figure and gasped in shock. "It's you!"

The newcomer wore a black suit jacket, a crisp white shirt, a tie, and his hair was neatly slicked back. He looked to be around seventy years old, resembling a wise and intellectual gentleman. But what stood out most were his piercing emerald eyes, like those of a wolf.

Sasha Dejanstahl Voban, also known as the Marquis Voban, the oldest Devil King, whom Haru had fought to a standstill on the Balkan Peninsula half a month ago, had returned.

"Oh, you have keen senses. Did you detect my interference in your final attack?" Voban's aged yet powerful voice, tinged with madness, echoed through the air.

Voban frowned. Having lived for over two hundred years, his mastery over his Authorities had reached its peak.

It was he who had meticulously manipulated his Tempestuous Fury Authority to disrupt the power of Gram, allowing the Heretic God Yama to escape.

Logically, a fledgling King, lacking experience, shouldn't have been able to perceive such a subtle action. Wait! The Authority! Recalling Pandora's ritual, Voban suddenly understood.

"I merely intended to get revenge on this kid for stealing my target, Siegfried, but I ended up exposing myself! No matter! Let the carnage begin!"

Having grasped the situation, Voban threw back his head and laughed. He stretched his arms, ripping his clothes to shreds. The ground trembled as he transformed, a thirty-meter tall werewolf standing before Haru.

"Hah! Fight you in this state? You think I'm an idiot?" Haru scoffed, giving the shameless old man the middle finger.

Fighting the Marquis at full strength while fatigued and wary of a potential counterattack from Yama? Only a fool would do that, and Haru knew he wasn't one.

He discreetly activated his Authority, nullifying his own gravity, preparing to make a run for it.

"Oh?" Voban smirked, shaking his head, and gestured behind Haru.

Haru's heart sank as he turned around.

"I'm sorry, I was captured..." Kasugano Sora said, her face filled with shame as she clutched her skirt, her head hanging low.

An Egyptian mummy-like figure stood beside Sora, its withered hand resting on her head. It was Voban's Death Servant Authority.

Looks like I have no choice but to play the fool! Haru turned back to face Voban, runes cascading over his body as the shadowy image of the Evil Dragon enveloped him once more. He slowly activated Steel Immortal Body.

"That's right! Let the battle commence!" Voban's massive jaws stretched into a wide grin, his eyes flashing green as he activated his Eyes of Sodom Authority.

Salt-infused magical energy surged towards Haru, followed by Voban's claws, ripping through the air.

Haru's body, affected by the salt magic, froze for a split second. By the time he recovered, Voban's three-meter wide claws were inches from his face. There was no escape.

Voban slammed his claws together, intending to crush Haru into a pulp. A clang of metal resounded as Haru's hardened Steel Body collided with the claws.

A grating sound filled the air as Voban exerted more force, his veins bulging as he pushed against the unyielding steel.

Trapped between Voban's claws, Haru's face turned red with exertion as he pushed back against the fleshy pads at the center of the claws. The concrete beneath his feet cracked and crumbled under the immense pressure.

The clear sky above, ripped open by Gram's attack, was once again shrouded in dark clouds. Rain poured down, and thunder roared.

Thousands of lightning bolts streaked across the sky, converging on Haru's head.

Haru's eyes flashed gold, and an invisible repulsive force erupted, deflecting the lightning and Voban's claws.

Voban stomped his right foot, shattering the ground, and pushed against the repulsive force with renewed strength. His claws, veins bulging like pythons, pressed down on Haru with crushing force.

A thunderous boom reverberated as Voban's claws made contact with Haru's hands.

Sora, standing in the distance, covered her ears, her face etched with worry as she watched Haru struggle against Voban. The downpour soaked through her white dress.

The two locked in a stalemate, their monstrous strength pushing against each other.

Voban, growing impatient, bared his fangs in a savage snarl. With a deafening howl, he lunged at Haru, jaws agape, attempting to swallow him whole.

The monstrous maw loomed before Haru, rows of sharp teeth, reeking of a foul odor, ready to devour him.

"Don't tell me you haven't brushed your teeth in two hundred years!" Haru cried out in horror. While his Steel Body could withstand the werewolf's fangs, the thought of being bitten was utterly revolting.

He poured almost all his remaining energy into his repulsive force, desperately pushing back.

The surge of power caused Voban to stagger. A purple bolt of lightning, imbued with potent life force, descended from the sky, striking Voban's body.

The werewolf's strength surged, the concrete beneath them shattering further as he resisted the amplified repulsive force and continued his attempt to devour Haru.

Haru's skin crawled at the thought of being trapped in the mouth of a two-hundred-year-old man. As the jaws closed in, his face turned green, his mind racing for a solution.

The werewolf's maw was upon him.
