He didn’t know what to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even his own chimera soldiers, and worse, his generals, had begun to move on their own, unable to resist Haron’s control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The authority of the Beast Demon Lord spread through them like a silent command. It was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel himself had used demonic beasts originating from Haron to create these chimera soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, that decision had come back to haunt him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were no longer fully his to command. Still, not everything had slipped from his grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remained unaffected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the others, it had not been created from beasts but from a dragon, something entirely outside the domain of the Beast Demon Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, He did not obey Haron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, a small black bird fluttered down and landed on Heinkel’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its voice, oddly familiar despite its form, broke through the chaos. \"Boss... what do we do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel turned his head slightly. \"Pelion...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exhaled, tension heavy in his voice. \"Honestly, I don’t know. Everything’s become too chaotic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbeknownst to the others, Pelion had not truly died. His chimera form was a demon phoenix, one capable of resurrection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had returned from death, but not without cost. His strength was greatly diminished, and the ability came with a long cooldown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pelion tilted his head, studying Heinkel. \"Then we should fall back for now, my lord. This isn’t our fight anymore... and besides...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced toward the sky. \"There’s still one person who hasn’t even shown himself yet, Garion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heinkel’s eyes narrowed at the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Garion...\" he muttered. \"Yes. The odd one out among us otherworlders... and one of the strongest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell silent for a moment, weighing his options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No,\" he said at last. \"We can’t run yet. If we leave now, we’ll lose any chance of understanding what’s really happening.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scanning the battlefield, Heinkel quickly spotted a suitable vantage point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s hide there first,\" he said. \"We’ll observe the situation before making our next move.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pelion gave a small nod. \"Fine by me, boss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sianor rushed forward without a second thought, even though a massive swarm of demon beasts loomed ahead of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of fear, a fierce joy lit up his face. With a sharp motion, he summoned his sword and charged straight into the horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One after another, the demon beasts fell, not with a struggle, but as if erased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Sianor’s blade passed through them, their bodies disintegrated into ash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha... finally, demons,\" he muttered, his grin widening. \"The moment I’ve been waiting for. Now is the time for Solmira to shine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of energy pulsed outward from him. Every demon touched by that force burned instantly to ashes, leaving nothing behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the rear, Sorien watched Sianor, his sovereign, with an excited expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight stirred something in him, and he couldn’t help but feel the same thrill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s right,\" Sorien said, his voice rising. \"The demons invaded us... so this is our moment. The moment for Solmira!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes gleamed as he stepped forward. \"Let’s show them the strength of the Solmira Clan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Solmira cultivators behind him nodded in unison, their resolve firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, like Sianor, Sorien and the others surged into battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demons fell easily before them as none of the creatures had reached the Fourth Realm, making them no match for the clan’s power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haron observed the battlefield, his expression twisting with fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How dare you kill my beasts!\" he roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a burst of demonic power, he lunged forward, intent on slaughtering the Solmira cultivators himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could reach them, a figure appeared in his path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood calmly before him, a grin tugging at her lips. \"That’s enough, Haron. Your opponent is me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haron frowned, his eyes burning with irritation. \"Move aside, bitch. I don’t have time for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel’s grin only widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe you don’t,\" she said lightly, \"but I have plenty of time for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for him to react, Rachel twisted her body and drove a punch straight toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haron reacted instantly, crossing his clawed arms to block. But just like before, the impact sent him skidding backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His claws trembled as he lowered them, the force of the blow still reverberating through his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AARGH! Damn it!\" he roared. \"What are you? How can you inflict this much pain on me? I am the Beast Demon Lord, for God’s sake!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel laughed, the sound calm and almost amused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s the problem,\" she replied. \"You’rejusta Demon Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes gleamed faintly. \"And I’m a god.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind her, Sianor watched with a small smirk. \"Rachel, hold him back. The Solmira Clan and I will handle the rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze shifted to the battlefield, where demon beasts continued to fall like withered leaves. \"To us, they’re nothing more than prey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel glanced over her shoulder and gave a casual wave. \"Don’t worry. Just keep going. I’ll take care of him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien, standing nearby, let out a low chuckle as he stepped forward. His grin sharpened as he looked toward Haron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Try not to die too quickly, Demon Lord,\" he said. \"I’m just starting to enjoy this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haron’s expression darkened, rage twisting his features into something feral. \"You lowly humans... how dare you humiliate me like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air trembled as his roar tore through the battlefield, his authority surging outward like a violent storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Beast Demon Lord, Haron possessed the power not only to command lesser beasts but also to absorb the strength of any of them weaker than himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And here, every demon present was weaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Streams of demonic energy began to rip free from the surrounding beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, they collapsed, their lifeforce drained as the energy surged toward Haron in writhing currents of dark power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body began to glow, the air around him warping under the pressure. It was a clear sign...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to transform.\u003C\u002Fp>",1022,"2026-06-06T11:12:30.898Z",1,"novelbin.me","bc0919ed00fa977015cd7e803bcd6824977788f46fad2bfa7e4229bc5ef56e34",null,"heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-549",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
