Anon halted the skill after one minute.
All eyes were fixed on Eldric, whose eyes had receded deep into their sockets. His muscles and bones were visible, his skin peeled from his body. It appeared as though he were still standing in the arena, but in reality, he had perished 32 seconds ago.
Anon discontinued his skill, retrieved another cigar from his inventory, and lit it, puffing away as if nothing had transpired.
"T-That skill... How did he obtain such a skill?" Mrs. Glen asked, her expression filled with shock.
Not only Mrs. Glen but everyone around the Queen, including the guards, royal ministers, and even the royal mages, were astonished.
"He must have acquired that skill when he blew the trumpet. Our father always spoke of it, that the one who played the Trumpet would receive unimaginable power. Is this the power of which our father spoke?" Fiona pondered, gazing at Anon with a smile.
Jessica had similar thoughts as she observed Anon.
"L-Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Jule used a single skill to eliminate his opponent without even laying a hand on him. Is this the might of royalty? Could Mr. Jule truly win this year\'s Academic Exchange Event and alter the course of history?" Sam declared.
"Master, did you acquire that skill from the Trumpet?" Jessica inquired.
"Yes, my dear," Anon confirmed.
"I knew it."
Suddenly, the immortal arena illuminated, and Eldric\'s body was restored to its original state.
"Haaaaaah...." Eldric exhaled deeply as he returned to life.
"Welcome back," Anon greeted with a smile.
Eldric began to sweat profusely and took cautious steps backward.
"Where do you think you\'re going?" Anon asked as he disappeared from his position and reappeared behind Eldric.
Eldric sensed a menacing aura behind him, compelling him to cast a defensive barrier around his body.
"U-Ultimate Defense B-Barrier..." Eldric stammered fearfully, covering himself in a thick mana barrier. It was his most potent defensive skill.
"Hehe... Let\'s see what this barrier of yours can withstand," Anon said as he seized Eldric\'s neck from behind and threw him to the ground. Eldric\'s mana barrier prevented him from sustaining damage, but he was immobilized, unable to move or flee from Anon\'s presence.
"What\'s happening? It\'s like my entire body is frozen; I can\'t take a single step... I lack the strength to even stand up in front of him. What should I do—guh..." Before he could muster any strength, Anon stood over his chest, pointing him toward the ground.
Then, Anon aimed his finger at Maison.
"Hmm... Is he pointing at me?" Maison asked, puzzled.
"He is... I believe," one of the royal ministers remarked.
Anon redirected his finger, pointing it back at Eldric.
Maison, his expression filled with anger, rose from his seat.
"This rascal..." Maison uttered, his tone furious.
"Maison, sit down... Don\'t let him provoke you," Mrs. Glen advised.
Anon grinned, took a deep drag on his cigar, and exhaled smoke, concentrating mana into his chest, as he had done before, but this time, the energy was five times more potent.
"N-No... N-Noooo..." Eldric cried out, but it was clear what was going to occur.
Anon\'s chest radiated with a golden glow, while his throat emitted a dark green light.
"My Queen, the energy within his body is extremely destructive. If he releases that energy toward the boy, it will shatter the immortal formation beneath the ground, and Eldric will perish," one of the mages warned, panic in his voice.
Sam heard the news and announced it loudly, "Mr. Jule... Stop! You will kill him. The immortal formation will shatter..."
"Damn it... I can\'t control it. The energy within my chest is escalating rapidly, becoming more unmanageable with each passing second. If I make even the slightest movement, my throat will explode, and the audience seated in front of me will perish," Anon realized, struggling to hold the energy within. Blood streamed from his eyes, and the glow from his chest intensified with each passing moment.
Everyone watched, waiting to see what would happen next.
Eve and Deris were equally curious about Anon\'s course of action.
"The energy within his chest is incredibly concentrated. If he releases it, the immortal formation will be destroyed..." Mike observed from above the Colosseum.
"You can\'t go... Everyone will see you," No.300 advised Mike, attempting to restrain him.
"N-No... Please... I beg you," Eldric pleaded desperately, unable to escape even when Anon removed his foot from his chest.
\'LINKKKKKK....\' Anon shouted mentally.
[I understand, Master.]
Link took his original snake form and wrapped around Anon\'s neck.
[Master, I will reposition your neck to face the sky.]
\'DO IT...FASTTTTT\' Anon ordered.
Link arched his hood backward, shifting Anon\'s neck upward toward the sky.
[NOW, MASTER....] Link spoke.
As soon as Anon\'s gaze met the sun, he opened his mouth and unleashed the roar towards the sky.
Everyone covered their ears and stood up, even the Queen herself rose from her royal chair, her face etched in astonishment.
"Beautiful..." Fiona spoke.
(Deafening Roar, Seventh and Last Form: SOARING THROUGH THE HEAVENS)
BHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
The sound tore holes in the clouds and sliced through the air. It resembled a massive dragon ascending to the heavens.
Meanwhile, Link struggled to maintain his form, as the energy emanating from Anon\'s throat was immensely destructive. If he released his hold on Anon\'s throat, his body would explode along with Anon\'s throat.
[I warned you, Master, to keep your anger in check...] Link spoke with a tense voice as he tightened the grip around his neck.
Anon\'s roar on that day became the sole sound heard across all the kingdoms of the holy land simultaneously.
Human Kingdom...
"What was that?" Derein, who sat atop her castle with Arthur, asked as she heard the sound.
"Eh... Probably some child playing with a toy in the garden," Arthur replied nonchalantly, leaning in to kiss Derein.
Dwarf Kingdom...
"What the hell was that ?" An old dwarf questioned.
"I don\'t know, My King. It\'s coming from the Elven Kingdom. Our radars have detected something very unusual at the centre of the elven kingdom." Another Dwarf answered.
