Grooooa! Zombie Big Jek roared after swallowing all the zombies he got. His evil laughter resounded throughout the place. The freshly grilled meat that had entered his stomach made him feel satisfied as if he was enjoying such a delicious dish.

Hearing that roar, the Gogo Gread sect members felt somewhat trembling. However there was an awkwardness they realized that Big Jek's roar sounded different from the roar they had previously heard.

"I feel bad feelings. We better back off now. There is a possibility that in front of us there are zombies that are much stronger," said one of the knights with fear in his voice.

Yoga agreed with the knight's opinion, he also felt fear creeping within him. But Endar's opinion was different. "Why should you be afraid?" he shouted in a voice full of courage. "Somehow my fire will burn all these zombies to ashes, no matter how strong they are!" he asserts with full confidence.

Endar became even more arrogant after successfully summoning the fire crow. Black flames smoldering all around the crow, surrounded its body with terrifying strength. No one could argue that the power of the fire crow was indeed extraordinary, and Endar enjoyed every moment of his newly discovered power.

Although Yoga had a hard time accepting it, he could not cover up the fact that Endar had become stronger than him. The fire crow that had become the magic beast of Endar, gave his subordinates an undeniable advantage.

"Fire Crowe, burn that Titan zombie!" endar commands with a wide smile, even without waiting for approval from Yoga. The fire crow breathed out a breath of fire, attacking the Titan zombies with a mighty force.

The strength Endar gained from the fire crow made him think that he would soon be promoted to a higher post. She is sure that her position will be better than Yoga, and she can't wait to prove it.

Yoga, as if realizing what was in Endar's mind, tightened his sword grip. In his heart, he swore to not let anyone precede him.

No one was aware of that, no one knew what Yoga had in mind, except for a yellow-robed girl who continued to watch the battle from a distance, her eyes filled with excitement, his smile widened as if impatiently wanting to see what would happen next.

\*\*\*

The flames engulfed Big Jek, burning his body with an extremely high temperature. Big Jek's roar of pain was answered with a cynical laugh from Endar.

"Look at how powerful the Fire Crow's power, my magical beast, is" Endar praised proudly.

Endar's excitement intensifies as Big Jek's zombie roar stops. "Did he just survive up here?" endar said cynically. He thought that Big Jek had burned to death.

"Yes, how else? The fire from my Fire Crow is so hot that a weak zombie like him will not be able to survive" Endar said arrogantly. Sect members cheered in admiration for the power of the Fire Crow, except Yoga.

Grooooooars! An even stronger roar rang back from Big Jek, leaving everyone who had been cheering speechless. They felt the same pressure from the previous roar at Big Jek's roar, a threatening hint of danger.

Even though Big Jek's body was on fire, the zombie was still standing. Suddenly there was a strange thing when the fire extinguished quickly, as if absorbed into the pores of Big Jek's body.

Seeing this, Yoga realized the strangeness, but Endar was too fascinated by the power of the Fire Crow. Endar ordered his magical beast to strike back.

The breath of fire was again thrown by the Fire Crow, but Big Jek quickly opened his mouth wide, sucking out all the flames coming towards him.

Every member of the Gogo Gread sect was shocked to see the breath of fire from the Fire Crow being completely absorbed by Big Jek. Even the fire that had previously burned the body of the Fire Crow was also sucked into Big Jek's mouth.

Without fire, the Crow had only turned into an ordinary black crow. Yoga realized that the Crow would not be able to win in the battle against Big Jek, so he immediately ordered Endar to undo the summoning magic.

But Endar refused, because he believed the Fire Crow who lost the fire could still defeat Big Jek.

"Rather Fire, attack with..."

Before Endar could finish his command, suddenly large worms wrapped around the Fire Crow. The tentacles were part of Big Jek intent on counterattacking.

Boom! The great crow fell down because its wings were bound by tentacles, so it could not be opened. Slowly, the worm tentacles dragged the Fire Crow towards Big Jek.

"No!" endar shouted when he realized Big Jek's evil intention to devour his magical creature. The bewildered Endar asks Yoga to mobilize his forces and stop Big Jek's plans.

"But why don't you just undo the summoning magic?" ask Yoga. But Endar explained that summoning magic can only be undone when the magic star is free.

"By this Fire Crow was shackled by the tentacles of worms, so I couldn't undo my magic."

Endar convinces Yoga that the power of the Fire Crow is a great help that will make the Gogo Gread sect the best in the city. While losing the Fire Crow would be a huge loss for them.

Although Yoga was worried that his position would be usurped by Endar, he was more concerned about the possibility of facing problems due to losing the great potential of the Fire Crow just like that.

Strengthening the sect was the duty of all members, and they had to do it at all costs, even if it meant becoming a rung for the other members. That is an indisputable obligation.

This is the doctrine of the Gogo Gread Sect.

By force, Yoga gathers his remaining forces to save the Fire Crow. They struggle to cut the tentacles that bind and free the crow. However, of course, Big Jek would not allow his prey to be taken by others.

Big Jek spat out poisonous liquid towards Gogo Gread's forces, but the attack was repelled by a knight with his shield. Big Jek's saliva liquid turned out to have a corrosive ability that could melt the shield of the knight.

"This monster!" as the knight said, who was very surprised to see his shield melt so fast, like ice cream thrown into embers.

More than 80 knights were involved in the fight, trying to prevent Big Jek from eating the Fire Crow. The army was divided into three groups, with the first group tasked with resisting the attack from Big Jek, the second group attempting to cut off the tentacles binding crows, while the last group struggled to resist the pull of worms.

Jrass! Finally, one of the worms that pulled the crow's body managed to cut off. The pain felt by Big Jek made him roar loudly, and everyone assumed that the roar was only an expression of the pain experienced by Big Jek.

However, they later realize that the roar is actually Big Jek's way of communicating with his brother.

A strong tremor was felt on the ground as if an earthquake had occurred. Everyone became anxious because suddenly the atmosphere was so gripping.

The sky that was previously bright by the light suddenly darkened. As everyone gazed up to find out what caused the darkness, they were startled by the appearance of a giant monster that reached 60 meters in height.

The monster looked like a combination of various kinds of beasts and human bodies that fused into a terrifying monster.

The cocoon finally broke apart, and the mountain of trash turned into an elusive entity. It looks scary, but it is also beautiful at the same time.
