Hero of Darkness

Kahn started the Synthesis divine ability while using the Cthulhu's core and body to merge with Blackwall instead of choosing it to power himself up to make up for the lost levels and become a 4th stage saint instead.

Why?

Because using your Soul Essence and sacrificing your levels also made his body unable to level up for a considerable amount of time.

While healing Kahn, Armin already told him that given his rank and levels, he'd need at least 7 days to make a complete recovery and become able to absorb world energy again.

So instead of waiting, he decided to evolve Blackwall who was the only candidate that fit the bill.

Besides, System had already informed Kahn about how Blackwall could gather different Primordial Titan bloodlines and inherit their powers altogether ever since their time in Verlassen. And now… it was time for the Kronos general who stayed the weakest in the current story arc so far, to gain an immense boost.

9 Hours Later.

The Synthesis divine ability took its time and Kahn along with the rest of the crew were already at 12 kilometers of distance in the sky as none of them wanted to get blown up because of the aftermath. And finally…

BOOOOMMMMM!!!

An enormously destructive explosion made of a brown and blue aura suddenly erupted and spread across 10 kilometers of open sea while causing tsunamis and typhoons made of large water bodies and tides as well as clouds made of evaporated water.

The sky almost cracked as thunderous noises filled and parted the dark clouds forcefully while the height of the explosion itself rose whooping 5 kilometers high.

The mushroom-shaped explosion finally subsided but an unnatural phenomenon suddenly occurred that changed the entire terrain.

Rumble!

Rumble!

One after another, dozens of solid mountains arose from the deep sea while whirlwinds and storms made of high-pressure waterblades encompassed the 5 kilometer radius from the origin.

Even from afar, all the onlookers had their clothes fluttering wildly from the shockwaves caused by Blackwall's evolution.

GRRR!!

A terrifying growl that sent shivers even to Kahn, Omega and Rudra suddenly resounded in the 25 kilometers perimeter, sending tremors in the sea while an insurmountable pressure almost made all of them drop into the sea below.

"System, what the hell is happening?!" asked Kahn in surprise.

[The system detects that because of small traces of the Mythical rank Metamorphosis bloodline that the host imparted to the subordinate, an unexpected transmutation has occurred.] reported the system hurriedly.

[How?] queried Kahn again.

[The system detects that although both primordial titan bloodlines are of the same origin, the superior one obtained from Cthulhu tried to take over the one acquired from the Mountain Titan as the former was a mythical rank creature while the latter was only a beginner-level legendary monster.

The mythical rank Metamorphosis bloodline obtained from the Jatvuarym monster was suddenly triggered during Synthesis and while acting as a catalyst, it reformed the entire physical structure to perfectly balance both uneven bloodlines, causing this Transmutation.] explained the system in detail.

ROARRR!!

An ear-deafening bellow of a monster suddenly resounded in the surrounding at this moment and finally, Blackwall's unexpectedly transformed figure came into sight amidst the storm and mountains.

A titanic 3 kilometers tall humanoid figure filled with red and gray fleshly skin with thousands of massive thorn-like spikes coming out of all the limbs, joints and skin appeared.

A massive 300 meter long tail waved behind it while 6 massive spider-limb boney extensions came out of the back.

At the center of the chest, was a large and wide red hole that looked identical to the mouth of an active volcano as scalding red fire arose from it.

The entire ribcage of this monstrous being was covered in bone-like exoskeleton armor and had 3 sets of glowing red eyes on each side while being separated by skeletal spikes. So in total.. there were 18 eyes.

The torso and shoulders were covered under this fleshly and boney armor, providing it the maximum defense while the clawed arms were so massive and ripped that even a mountain could be excavated in a single swoop.

As for the head… the mouth was nothing but a maw made of thousands of sharp and pointy teeth while the top had 3 large and sturdy horns. However… the eyes were no longer on the head but transferred to the chest.

But similar to Cthulhu, dozens of massive fleshly tentacles extended below the mouth, akin to his own beard.

Kahn saw this new transformed state with a stupefied expression and asked himself…

"What the hell is this? Isn't he supposed to look like a Titan?

Why is he looking more like a combination of Godzilla and Gundam?"

Although he was aware that the metamorphosis bloodline balanced both primordial titan bloodlines and caused a transmutation… this new form was still way too out of the norm.

Blackwall was now a creature that was even more terrifying than the Mountain Titan and Cthulhu. Even the Elder Hydra, Rudra in his true appearance would look like cute little snake babies.

As for the terrifying and ginormously mountain-like appearance...

Forget the kids… It will give their parents nightmares.

"System, show me all the abilities." commanded Kahn.

Kahn relayed this information to all the subordinates and just like him, they were also too stunned to speak.

Blackwall not only became a Mythical Rank creature; but based on his levels and stats alone, he was now the strongest subordinate among them all.

Even if both Omega and Rudra fought him together, they'd be able to do nothing against him based on his bloodline abilities alone.

As far as the standards of comparisons went… Blackwall outmatched everyone including Kahn. Because at this moment, he was…

A 5th Stage Saint.
