3rd Person's POV:

The raging demon kept releasing it's dark and strong heavy waves at the wall of the school, it's even more furious now that it realized it's target was gone.

Back in the safe area in which lian and the others are now currently, lian used his witch core to come in contact with the demon.

Once he had finally come in touch with it, an idea sparked from the said male's idea.

Lian: Now, gather around everyone, I know how to stop it.

Max: We're listening.

Lian: Okay, before we get to move and strike back at the monster I must warn you all that it doesn't have a physical form meaning you won't be able to touch it as it's body is made completely out of fire.

Blizzard: Uh-huh.

Lian: And also not go close to it, it might burn you too so just don't do that, okay, now that that's been talked about, let's get on with the plan.

Lian activated his whip.

Lian: You seven beastmen must use your powers to prevent the demon from spreading it's anger even more inside the school, BUT! it must only stay inside the premises.

Edge: Huh?

Logan: Come again?

Lian: I know this will give a huge damage inside the school but facing that demon outside will give even more maelstrom in our city, so what I need you to do is use your powers at maximum, whatever it takes, it cannot and must not find a way out of here understand?!

"Understood!" They all shouted together.

Max: Wait, but what will you do.

Lian: I'm going to use my witch core and try to seal the demon with it and obtain it's power.

Blizzard: Wait won't you get hurt if you do that?

Lian: It will but I must, and I don't mind because as a future witch I'm willing to do anything just to prevent demons like that destroy our world.

The beastmen looked worried, max was terrified on how reckless this idea he had come up with, but seeing lian so persistent with this idea, he was not able to stop him.

Lian: Alright, let's take care of that monster!

Opening the door of the school's safe cage, lian was the first one to exit, and as expected, the demon was waiting for them to show themselves again.

The demon filled with rage came rushing towards him, it's body was furiously bursting of flames.

Then, just as it was about to hit the said male, lian stared fiercely at it.

Lian: Blizzard! now!

Blizzard came sliding in front of lian, using both hands to touch the ground, blizzard created an ice wall that surprised the raging beast startling it for a quick second.

Lian: Max! Let's go!

Max followed as he was told and jumped right on the demon.

Lian rolled out his whip and gave a devastating lash at the demon making it take a few steps back and making distance between them.

Edge arrived in the scene and created aimed his hands at the beast, with a perfect aim, water flew into his palms and calmed down the flames.

Another shrill shriek came from the demon as it was being attacked constantly and was not being given time to react.

Just as it was about to make it's retreat a huge wall now made of rock appeared.

Logan: You're not going anywhere freakshow!

Lian turned to logan and was surprised by how fast he was able to create that wall.

Max came on rushing to the wall while the demon was still distracted.

Pulling his fist, he gave a strong punch on the rock completely blasting the demon and throwing it right on lian.

Max: Lian watch out!

He warned out.

Lian took his witch's core out once again and aimed it at the demon that was heading towards his way once more.

The said male soon went into fast thinking.

Lian: If I'm correct, the two orbs that are now in my hands are connecting this demon, so if I just had the chance to touch it...

Lian wasted no time and went right through it, the witch's core emitted a bright light just as it was about to touch the demon.

The demon let out one last horrifying shriek as it's fires soon went out along with it's body.

It pushed lian a few distance away but he endured the pain that it has given him, once the demon finally vanished, only the orb was left.

Edge: Is, is that it?

Blizzard: I think so?

Blizzard responded as he slowly melted the ice he created.

Lian stood up and rubbed the aching pain in his head, max rushed to him and help him stand up.

Lian thanked him for that and noticed the orb suddenly approaching him.

With the orb fully in his hands, lian's eyes emitted a bright green as a holographic text appeared before him.

"Zaghenu, The Body of Mysteries"

The demon of enigma is another way of calling it, it has no stories in the past and it's identity is very hidden, not even the most skilled heroes from the old generation knows that this spirit exists.

It's power is deadly, so use it wisely or your life may be taken away from you.

The description ends there.

Lian: That's three...

Max: Do you think you have them all?

Lian: I'm not quite sure.

Edge: We're glad you have finally gotten what you're looking for but the damage that demon caused here is really big... And I know who exactly to blame.

Lian stared at edge.. Even he knew what he was talking about.

At the end of the day, the cross-battle was cancelled but the colossals obtained the honour they were hoping for.

If it wasn't for them, the anger of the beast would be even more powerful than ever.

Gunter was put in strict classes as he was the main problem why the orb got in there in the first place.

Lian smiled happily along with his friends as they went back home.

This wasn't the experience he was hoping for but it was quite better as this made it even easier for him to find the last orb...

The last orb...
