The Phantom Clan is a race with thousands of different characteristics. Most of these Phantoms are uncoordinated and do as they please. However, there are some sub-groups in which members share similar characteristics. They have high intelligence and protect each other, and form a group that can fight against even higher ranking existences.
This is proof that the Phantom Race, which has been fighting all the time following their instincts with no fear of death whatsoever also possesses some level of intelligence. As a result, it was inevitable that the Insectar Race would be derived from the Phantom Race.
And now...
‘Kya-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...’
Ivarage, the ‘Destroyer’, gave rise to a cry of evolution. It was a new rebirth. The rainbow-color cocoon soon engulfed Ivarage and reconstructed her body.
For Spiritual lifeforms, the appearance and size of the body were adjustable. However, as an egoless entity, Ivarage had no actual form. Her energy accumulated, increasing even more as it gave off a terrorizing and evil feeling.
Ivarage underwent a noticeable change when it evolved. Its size was reduced to that of a human child.
The enormous creature of energy condensed into a child, her presence becoming unimaginably chaotic. Remnants of the rainbow-colored cocoon enveloping her jade-like glowing body as the skin revealed through the gaps, pure white and fresh, along with her pure white hair, which seems to swallow up the light, fluffy like dandelion fluff. Her cherry-red pretty lips twisted in an evil way -- her golden eyes giving the hint of intellect.
Ivarage's sentience blossomed when she acquired the emotion of ‘hatred’. As the incarnation of conscious and pure malice, Ivarage wanted to reveal her presence to the entire world.
But before that, Ivarage remembered. After acquiring emotions, her intellect grew rapidly. As a result of that intelligence, she understood that she had been abandoned.
She felt lonely and frustrated.
'Unforgivable.'
She once just existed as the Flawless and Perfect ‘’All-In-One‘’, the whole outside of which no thing existed.
Ivarage, who originally had no intellect, no senses, no feelings, was never anxious, never dissatisfied, never even bored. But after gaining intelligence, she realized that she was missing something, she remained as one-half of her original self.
That feeling of ethereal all-encompassing-ness was gone, and she was exposed to a reality she could not perceive the future.
Even so, since Ivarage had no intellect before, so she never felt dissatisfied. But that unpleasant sense of loss - of loneliness - that came over her now.... no matter what she did, she couldn't overcome it.
It was different now. Ivarage has gained an ego. She gained intellect and became aware of her situation as she gained emotions and swore revenge.
'If I have been abandoned, I just have to go back. If I swallow the whole world, everything, the being that abandoned me would surely return.'
To destroy Veldanava's creation, that became Ivarage's purpose..
Because the first emotion she gained was hatred, Ivarage was jealous of all creation. Therefore, she would not hesitate to destroy even the world itself.
When the Evil God awoke from her sleep, there was also a gate in front of her. A gate leading to another world - the ‘’Heavenly Star Palace‘’. Beyond this gate, an unknowable world was unfolding. Veldanava had created countless worlds, so if she destroyed and swallowed all of them them one by one, she might be able to satisfy her desires one day.
Ivarage dreamt of the pleasure while thinking of that happening. Her mood improved and she smiled pleasantly as certain beings responded to her. They were the Kings who ruled her army.
The beast that runs through the void of nothingness.
The bird that flies across Dimensions.
The fish that swims among the Stars.
They were the followers of the dreaming Ivarage, adoring the Chaos Dragon as their mother.
The Rulers of the Phantom Race who each alone could rival Zelanus, the former King of Insectars, were pleased by the evolution of the ‘Destroyer of Worlds’, Ivarage. The tyranny and might of these three beasts had become untouchable as a result of self-awakening, resulting in an unimaginable impact on all branches of their race.
[B]I'm so happy for you, my little ones. So this is what cutesy feels like....[/B]
Ivarage became delighted by her first ever feeling of joy, making her mood grow even happier. And with that enthusiasm, she wanted to bestow upon her followers gifts to make them happy as well.
[B]I'm going to grant you a gift![/B]
She gave one of them the name 'Kakaeshi' and bestowed upon it a gift, and did the same with the other two as well.
The bird that soars through Dimensions was given the name 'Habataki', embodying the desire of resentment.
The fish that swims among the stars was given the name 'Suiemu', representing hate. It was a pretty name, but it transmitted the evil intentions of the name-giver.
Upon the naming of the three beasts, who would have done anything for their mother, their loyalty was even more enhanced. Their loyalty went as far as the willing-ness to destroy themselves if it meant fulfilling their mother's wishes. Their evolution was complete, and forms were looking hideously wicked.
Kakeashi had the body of an enormous lion with the head of a dragon, with its entire body covered with dragon scales. Its tail, which was like a viper's and divided into eight sections, wriggled freely. It also has eyeballs all over its body, leaving no blind spots or openings, while viscous decomposing substances were radiated from the small spikes, forming a mist. Even if it was a Demon lord, even if they merely came in contact with Kakaeshi's aura, they would face death on spot.
Habataki was a two-headed creature, both male and female simultaneously. It was an elegant spectral bird with an eagle-like style and a feathered peacock tail. Its entire body was covered with metallic feathers of Hihirokane, the Ultimate Metal, giving it a golden glow. Its appearance seemed more mechanical and inorganic rather than biological. Upon close inspection, it could be seen that even the feathers were pure metal.
Suiemu had the most bizarre form. It was a fish monster with a mysterious feeling, akin to a squid with a pointed tip. There was no actual head, but numerous tentacles sprout from its round torso located in the middle of its body. If one looks from up close, they can see that each tentacle had fine joints, allowing them to move freely. Its whole body was covered with pure Allionium steel, with its collection of small mutant organisms forming a swarm.
There are no similarities between the three, but they all had one thing in common, their alien and bizarre nature. They were not even living creatures, with their irregular features being part of their existence.
The same was true for their subordinates. The higher ranking the beings were in the subordinate-chain, the more irregular features they inherited from their rulers. These monsters had more terrorizing and irregular features as compared to those born naturally from the ruler's magic essence. It was the same case as with the process of naming and evolution.
Countless illusory creatures steeped with malice had evolved into unfathomably evil beings. The higher ranking veterans with their ferocious might easily surpassed Disaster Class. These veterans numbered around a hundred, and the totality of the army numbered around ten thousand. The hordes of the Phantom Race centered around Ivarage, the World Destroying Dragon, the Evil God that heralds the end of existence.
[B]This is fun... very fun.... Come on, let's go play♪[/B]
, Ivarage ordered.
She was smiling, but that smile did not reach her eyes. She firmly stared at the ‘Heavenly Star Palace’ and starts to move without a sound. With hatred in her eyes the one who had left her behind, Ivarage descended on the ‘Heavenly Star Palace’, vowing to make up for everything she has lost.
Normally, the Heaven's Gate connected to the Cardinal World is completely closed, and the only way to pass through it is through the ‘key’, but for some reason, the Heaven's Gate was open at the moment. Dagruel, the gatekeeper, was also absent, allowing anyone to pass through.
Even more so - a tremendous shock reaching even the ‘Heavenly Star Palace’ was coming from the other side through the ‘Heavenly Tower’, which was located just beyond Heaven's Gate.
This was the side effect Milim using her Drago Nova. The interior of the ‘Heavenly Tower’ was completely destroyed, with there being a big hole in each floor of the building, making it possible for the army to pass through without any problem.
[B]Kyahaha... let the fun begin![/B]
No one could stand in Ivarage's way. With the forces of the Hell behind her, the innocent Evil God walked into the Cardinal World. And as soon as she crossed the gate...
‘I have found you!’
Ivarage sensed fragments scattered across the Cardinal World. It were the signatures of those who were once associated with the ‘Star King Dragon’ Veldanava.
Ivarage laughed as she vowed to destroy the world, filled with hatred towards those whom Veldanava loved.
The army of the Evil God resonated with her wishes, swallowing up everything in its path to devour the world and return to the ‘ All-In-One ’ once more.
