The condensed spiritual arm had a transparent appearance, and Arthur unknowingly made it similar to the Arm of Creation. Since he can never regenerate his arm, he might also make use of the spiritual power it left behind.

"You're becoming more of a freak every day," Traitor squinted his eyes. "What does it feel like to become something you don't even know?"

"How about you answer this: What does it feel like to be beaten by something you look down upon." Arthur stood up and began walking. "Come down here, mutt."

"I'll show you the real power of the Wolfmen." Traitor's body began to expand rapidly, his claws becoming as long as swords. He became twice as big as before, descending on the island and creating a crater.

Boom!

The landing of the giant wolfman shook the island. His knees bent as the monster crouched and bolted toward Arthur, appearing in front of him instantly.

"Your head is mine." The wolf clawed at Arthur, who simply smirked in response.

"Ah, I missed this feeling." Arthur grinned as he spat a single word. "Release!" The golden rune activated as mana exploded around Arthur.

The golden mana seeped into his spiritual arm, creating a golden and blue ethereal arm. The claw arrived, and Arthur punched with his left arm.

The two attacks met midair; a short pause ensued. All of a sudden, Traitor's arm disappeared. Arthur could see his eyes widening, but he gave the monster no time to retreat.

Striking the ground with his right hand, Arthur flipped through the air and kicked Traitor's abdomen. The kick sent the giant monster flying across the island until he slammed into the world's end. He then fell to the ground, listless and unmoving.

"That is... it?" Gala muttered, surprised. "After all that arrogance, that's all he had?"

"He was indeed strong, but the Seika's attack was simply... overpowered."

Arthur was equally speechless. Feeling the two girls' gaze on his back, he needed to come up with something. However, he couldn't act surprised after his earlier words. But inwardly, his thought process was quite different.

'What just happened? Was this guy weak? No, the whole island shook by his landing. Did something change in the Release Rune?'

Arthur checked his legacy and found the rune to be the same. It didn't evolve, nor did it get any enhancement. Turning around, he acted calmly.

"Have you heard of the idiom: all talk but no action?" Arthur said after clearing his throat. "I suspect that this man has a unique ability, Bluffing!"

"Your mother is bluffing!" The wolfman spat blood as he stood up again. His arm was gone, obliterated from existence. Blood pooled from his shoulder into the ground as he looked at Arthur with a murderous gaze.

"Hey, leave my mother out of this." Arthur frowned. "If you keep talking like that, I'm not inviting you to the Only-One-Arm Club,"

"You won't be this relaxed anymore," The wolf raised his head and gave howled toward the sky. A crack appeared in the sky, and a red light came out from it.

"The Inner World is breaking!" Gala shouted as she held on to Roya and covered Daniel with mana. "Seika, take him down now!"

"It's too late." Dia shook her head as a cobweb of cracks appeared in the Inner World, and the space grew unstable. "We're being pushed out." Dia raised her head toward the sky. as the light turned into world particles.

"Wait for me, Little One." Arthur picked up the spirit and placed it in the cabinet as the world began to break down. "I still have many questions."

Everything disappeared, and the group appeared outside in the middle of the square. The world was red as a blood moon hung in the sky above them.

Several feet away, the giant wolf was still howling toward the sky. Rays of red light descended on its body as it began to grow bigger. Its size didn't stop growing until it was as big as the building beside it.

"See? Bluffing." Arthur turned to Gala and Dia and pointed at the fuming giant monster. "All size, no power." He said with a smirk.

"Bastard!" The wolf roared and raised its claws to attack. Looking around, Arthur found that many citizens were still here, frozen in fear.

"Gala and Dia, evacuate everyone from here. I'll take care of it." Arthur jumped down from the root as the monster prepared to attack everything in its way. "As for you, Restrain!"

Restrains, reinforced by his spiritual arm, sprawled out of Arthur's rune like snakes and tied down the giant wolf. However, Traitor broke them apart quickly, but it was enough to buy time.

"Awooo!" Traitor howled to the sky, and blood began to rain down on the square. The blood gathered around his shoulder and created a new blood arm.

As soon as the blood touched the people's skin, their flesh began to melt, and screams of agony reverberated through the square.

"Dammit." Arthur threw out his barrier into the sky and blocked the rain, but it already injured many people. Dia and Gala hurried to carry everyone away, but Traitor didn't give them a chance.

Crouching until his muscled bulged and his feet dug into the ground, Traitor sprinted forward while spreading his claws wide and destroying every building in its path.

"That's enough." Rage spilled from Arthur's voice. "You've hurt too many people. Repent." His spiritual arm manifested again, and he activated his Release Rune. He appeared in front of Traitor and punched his giant leg.

A hole appeared instantly in the monster's skin as his flesh was destroyed and his bone broken. With a loud howl, the red energy restored his leg immediately, and it slashed with his claw toward Arthur.

Teleporting away, Arthur appeared on top of the root with a frown. His attack was successful, but the monster could regenerate instantly?

"This is the powers of a Calamity." Gala walked beside him with a frown. "Lord of Blood, Vampires Overlord, Kar."

"How is he using the powers of a calamity?" Arthur frowned. "Another vessel?"

"No, this one is different. This wolf is simply Kar's servant; his powers are granted to him by a vampire." Gala shook her head. "This has become a lot more troublesome than it was."

"Whoever the traitor is in the Royal Court, he's not helping Alva or any other nations." Arthur squinted his eyes. "He wants the world to end."

"Do you need any help?" Gala asked him.

"Just protect the people around," Arthur said as he jumped forward. "This is the stress relief that I was waiting for." He landed in front of the giant blood wolf. "Come forth, punching bag."

"I'll chew you alive!" The giant wolf opened its maw and lunged toward Arthur.

The liquid fire appeared in Arthur's hand, and he clenched his fist. The fire gathered in a bright red color as the temperature of the surroundings rose by several degrees.

Arthur punched with his fist, and the fire exploded in a giant pillar into the wolf's mouth. The flesh burned, but it regenerated even faster than before.

Traitor tried to bite off Arthur's arm, but his teeth began to melt as well from the liquid fire. It threw itself to the side and clawed at him, but Arthur jumped up and punched again with his ethereal arm.

Traitor blocked his attack with his other arm, and it bent before regenerating. Arthur used his barrier to stop an attack from the blood arm, and it sent him flying.

As he was about to use his glide skill, Dia appeared behind him and caught him in time. As she couldn't carry him by his armpits, she hugged his waist and descended.

"A bit too intimate, no?" Arthur blinked, and Dia snorted and flew away. She appeared above the blood wolf, and her eyes were terrifyingly cold.

"Burn,"

Blue flames exploded from her hands and descended on the wolf. Traitor screamed in agony as his flesh was burned and regenerated. Dia clenched her fist, and the fire froze with Traitor inside of it.

The chaotic battlefield was suddenly silent as Dia landed next to Arthur. The two looked at each other, and a smug smirk appeared on Dia's face.

"Heh." She puckered her lips in a mocking expression. "Did you enjoy flying?" She mocked Arthur.

"With that perception of yours, it's no wonder that I succeeded in planting the Bestial Order." Arthur sighed, and Dia's face fell.

"What are you talking about?"

"It's not dead." Arthur smiled as he looked at the giant ice mountain that enclosed the wolf. Suddenly, a loud cracking voice echoed in the empty square.

The ice suddenly broke under Dia's pouting face. She glared at Arthur as if he released the wolf himself. Arthur shrugged in response and patted her shoulder.

"You'll get him next time. How about you freeze him again?" He taunted.

"Hmph!" She snorted and flew away, attacking the wolf again. Arthur laughed and bolted forward as well.

Traitor howled as soon as he came out of the ice. His body was freezing, but he could still move. Taking the sluggish movements as an opening, Arthur punched again with his spiritual arm and Release Rune.

His fist sank into the wolf's abdomen. Arthur broke through the thick skin and drilled a hole through Traitor's abdomen. This time, the wolf could heal only half of the wound.
