The humanoid figure looked around, spotting a baby penguin standing 1 kilometre away from him. He lightly waved his hand, producing a gentle wind that lifted the top layer of snow, showcasing a layer of ice.

The humanoid figure skated towards the baby penguin, taking his time after seeing it stand unmoving despite noticing him. Finally, he stopped 20 metres from it, looking at it with surprise.

The baby penguin stood before the remains of a tower of ice, broken down after suffering from an external impact. The ice looked hard, unlike the ones in the surroundings, looking like one that had been condensed for over a century.

The humanoid figure focused his senses, noticing a tiny shard—10 centimetres in length, magenta in colour—buried beneath the ice rubble. It was a stray shot from the marble spear, detached during their previous exchange when it began to break.

The ice was dyed red, thanks to the contents buried within it. The blood-red colour inched its way up the ruins of the ice tower, making it look horrifying.

Despite the atmosphere, the baby figure never looked back, its focus solely on the humanoid figure, the senses stemming from deep within its self calling for the other party.

The baby penguin craned its neck, looking at the face of the 10-metre tall giant with difficulty, showing no signs of fear. It stood like a rigid statue, unflinching at the cold winds that brushed past it.

His toothless mouth grinned, pointing a finger at the baby penguin, beckoning for it to come near.

The baby penguin craned its beak forward, leaning its body to the front, taking a step. With a plop, it fell face-first on the ice floor.

The baby penguin brought its legs forward, making a motion similar to a dog paddling, taking support with its flippers, inching its body forward. Using its beak as an anchor, it applied strength to its stout neck, lifting the front portion of its body a little.

The flippers too followed suit, increasing the force on its body, like pushing a see-saw up. The baby penguin finally stood up, standing firm, its stance looking stable. It craned its neck once again, glancing at the face of the humanoid figure, dropping down, measuring the distance on the ground.

It leaned forward, taking a step using its left, falling face-first on the ice once again. It paused for a moment, looking calm, trying to get up, showing no signs of giving up. As it brought its legs forward, intending to repeat the previous process, it slipped, failing to get up.

A couple of seconds passed in silence, the sounds of the cold winds being the only sounds accompanying it. The baby penguin flapped its flippers, thrashing the ice, throwing a fit, leaking out cute whimpers.

'It is always the weirdest ones among the Children of Frenzy that take interest in me.'

The humanoid figure crouched before it, extending his hands, allowing his index finger to gently nudge its head. The baby penguin used its flippers to wrap around his finger, allowing it to be picked up when he curled his index finger, finally settling on his palm.

"I have never intended to develop the penguins. After all, they are isolated from the rest of the world. But, if you were to reach Tier 6, everything will change." He sighed, glancing around, noticing the penguins arrive in a fluster, prostrating on the ice the moment they witnessed his presence.

Every race, despite depending on him for the Frenzy Parasites, would do their best to lock away the Children of Frenzy, leaving them alone in confinement until their death. Only when he personally demanded them would they send them his way.

They worshipped him but, at the same time, greatly feared him. After all, it would take him a thought to make any creature below Tier 6 lose control on the spot. His command over the parasites was absolute.

So, the Frenzy Beasts usually locked all the Children of Frenzy in a secure region, with escape being impossible.

The magenta shard had previously destroyed one such place, killing all of them except for one baby penguin.

"There are only a handful of Tier 4 Frenzy Beasts; the penguin race is incredibly weak." Enclosing his palm, the humanoid figure turned around, skating on the ice, proceeding towards the water.

Once he noticed the safety of the baby penguin in his palm, he picked up his speed, forming a small barrier around his palm using his energy. When he approached the water, he jumped up, changing the inherent structure of his feet, making it assume a webbed form.

He sprinted on the water, skipping past the icebergs that hindered his path, sending a kick to obliterate them if they were too big. It took him 16 seconds to traverse the first kilometre, quickly getting used to running on the water, raising his speed every second.

Soon, ripples equivalent to tsunamis formed in his wake, each step of his surpassing the speed of sound permeable through water, creating wave packets. The humanoid figure looked in the direction of his base, sensing small flashes of orange and blue despite the distance spanning thousands of kilometres.

"So, this was your plan all along." Thinking back to their nature, he nodded. "Humans are cunning indeed."

…

After the humanoid figure had been blasted away, the Colossal Bawling Sheep jerked its head, noticing its left horn crumble into dust. It then felt the wind stir, the ambient radiance dimmed despite the sun shining bright.

The Colossal Bawling Sheep sensed danger arriving from numerous directions. It had just reformed the large psychic arm when another marble spear appeared—10 kilometres long and 100 metres in radius—its tip looking ethereal, capable of severing everything.

The Colossal Bawling Sheep spanned a height of 2,200 kilometres, painting a large target. Moreover, it wasn't one boasting a speed necessary to dodge the attack. After all, its body was heavier than what its psychic energy could carry.

The marble spear punctured the large psychic arm just like before, its momentum unhindered, piercing its way through the Colossal Bawling Sheep's body. The 10-kilometre long marble spear appeared on the other side of its body, disappearing through the horizon.

Soon, three more such spears appeared, each piercing through its body, destroying everything in its path. A final marble spear appeared from the top, piercing through its body and lodging into the ground, holding it in place.

As the Colossal Bawling Sheep struggled to break itself free, the surroundings turned dark, the ambient temperature becoming freezing cold, the heat seeping away towards the north.

Soon, a flaming dragon appeared, spanning a kilometre in length. Its serpentine body made elegant curves in the air, twisting and turning, absorbing all the heat in its path. Two long whiskers floated next to its face, unattached to its body, empowering it.

As the flaming dragon neared, four Tier 6 Frenzy Beasts appeared, forming a defensive line before the Colossal Bawling Sheep, looking ready to intercept it.

Suddenly, a lightning dragon flashed, attacking them without warning, brushing past their defences, scorching their bodies, and numbing their senses. Taking the chance, the flaming dragon let out a cruel smile, filled with a bloodthirsty aura.

It opened its mouth and spit out a small ball of flame, spanning a metre in radius, white in colour. The white fireball shot forward like a bullet, impacting the ground, melting kilometres of the area into a sea of lava.

The Colossal Bawling Sheep activated one of its Unranked Skill, creating a fall of water, trying to douse the flames. The fire dragon shot another fireball, aiming it towards its body, dispersing the water into steam. It then collided into the Colossal Bawling Sheep, tussling with it, burning its mountainous body.

Once it was occupied with the fire dragon, in the land two kilometres north to them, a small mound appeared, quickly growing like a pimple. The tip of the mound soon cracked, finally bursting like a mini nuclear bomb, spewing out copious amounts of lava.

The lava spewed forth, evaporating all the lakes, including the millions and millions of Frenzy Parasites swimming within each lake. They either died to the heat as the lake boiled and evaporated or died from the influx of the poisonous fumes mixing into the air.

The four Tier 6 Frenzy Beasts hurriedly tried to suppress the volcano, activating their Skills. An old man appeared on the head of one of them, barely having a presence, immediately making the Frenzy Beast clutch its head and cry out in pain.

The fire dragons had become four by now, fighting against each Tier 6 Frenzy Beast, the resulting wake of their attacks burning up the land, melting the soil, and vaporising the living beings.

In a battle between Tier 6 beings, the Tier 5 Frenzy Beasts in charge of the lakes were naught but cannon fodder, dying from the stray aura waves.

Lightning dragons flashed, merging into the bodies of the fire dragons, buffing them up further, raising their lethality. Ten marble spears peaked out of the body of the Colossal Bawling Sheep, anchoring its body to the spot, sealing its movements.

One more fire dragon appeared, twice bigger than the other fire dragons, its eyes shining with sentience. It opened its mouth, vibrating the surrounding air, "Reef, he will be back in a minute. He has already noticed our intentions."

"Haha, no worries," The man sitting on the head of a Tier 6 Frenzy Beast laughed, slapping its head, making it cry out even louder, "Thanks to his carelessness, I have obtained another Tier 6 Frenzy Beast."

The Tier 6 Frenzy Beast looked similar to a kangaroo but had a skin full of scales, forming spikes all over its body. Two spikes emerged out its forehead, similar to the antlers of a deer, shining with a yellow-green hue.

Rhachis Ancestor Reef laughed, sending a command to it, making it exert strength to its legs. With a jump, it traversed tens of kilometres, heading north. "I'll be taking my leave and work on deepening my control over it."

"It seems Light and Marble are done with their attacks. I'll cover your retreat." The giant fire dragon said, spewing out a torrent of flames, flooding the land. The fire dragons scorched the land, spreading the damage, hindering the Skills of the other Tier 6 Frenzy Beasts that had arrived at the scene.

A gleeful figure escaped with his kangaroo.
