Medical devices exploded in showers of sparks and plastic fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a what?\" Arthur inquired conversationally, already preparing his next move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex extracted himself from the wall, concrete dust cascading from his crimson hide. His burning eyes held genuine fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were saying something about breaking me slowly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's power reached out across the room, invisible tendrils wrapping around Rex's massive form like ethereal chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Got you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex's body jerked forward against his will, dragged through space by forces beyond his comprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another casual punch sent Rex flying in the opposite direction. The demon's form blurred through air thick with dust and debris, creating sonic booms that shattered remaining windows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time Rex smashed through the exterior wall, his trajectory carrying him into the street below. The impact created a small crater in asphalt already damaged by earlier demonic assault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur walked to the shattered window, observing Rex's attempts to comprehend his new reality. The demon struggled to his feet, massive frame swaying with uncharacteristic unsteadiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is impossible,\" Rex snarled, his voice carrying across the distance. \"You're mortal! Weak! Insignificant!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was. Past tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's spatial power activated again, dimensional forces reaching down to seize Rex like cosmic puppet strings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex's massive form shot upward, pulled by gravitational fields that operated according to Arthur's will rather than planetary physics. The demon's ascent accelerated beyond safe limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex burst through the window opening like a crimson cannonball, his momentum carrying him directly into Arthur's waiting fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a boxing bag. The small ones that bounce back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Welcome to the new world order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's fingers closed around Rex's thick neck with casual authority. Spatial power amplified his grip strength beyond mortal limitations, creating pressure that could crush steel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex's burning eyes widened as comprehension finally dawned. The predator had become prey in a matter of moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fear. Finally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sleep well, Rex.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's voice carried the finality of an execution order. His enhanced strength twisted, the sharp crack of vertebrae echoing through the blood-soaked room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SNAP!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rex's massive body went limp instantly. His earlier malice extinguished like a candle flame in hurricane winds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur released his grip, letting the demon's corpse crash to the floor with thunderous impact. Crimson blood pooled around the once-mighty predator's broken body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Problem solved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brilliant light erupted from Dave's position, energy cascading around him like liquid starlight. The young man's body trembled as dormant power awakened with explosive force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talent activation. Right on schedule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur turned toward his newest ally, spatial awareness, cataloguing the energy patterns surrounding him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's your talent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dave's eyes snapped open, pupils dilating as new awareness flooded his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's called Shapeshifter... S-Rank.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>S-Rank. That's Impressive. He would be part of the elite class in the academy of Mera.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad. You're good.\" Arthur's approval made Dave straighten unconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to recruit you. To be part of my team, part of the strongest guild in the new world order...the power guild.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Would you like to join?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Dave's response came without hesitation, certainty ringing through his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smart decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way Arthur had moved, planned, demonstrated power—everything about him radiated competence that inspired absolute confidence. Turning an impossible situation possible through calculation and brains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could have let Gates handle the demon. But he took personal responsibility. He doesn't throw his team under the bus when it truly matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you not going to ask about the benefits?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. There's no need.\" Dave shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perfect attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. I like you. Welcome to the team, Dave. This is Gates.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur gestured toward his business partner, who nodded acknowledgement. his shoulder was no longer wounded as his power returned to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The universal voice interrupted Arthur's recruitment with urgent proclamation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[ERROR... ERROR... BREACH HAS BEEN DETECTED!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[HUMANS! YOU WILL NOW HAVE DOUBLE THE PREPARATION TIME. YOUR REWARDS FOR SURVIVING YOUR UPCOMING CALAMITY WILL BE DOUBLED.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Double the preparation time. That's... nothing. At least the rewards are doubled, that's not too bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[YOU HAVE TEN MINUTES TO FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH YOUR POWERS. MANY FIRST-ORDER BEASTS WILL HELP YOU LEVEL UP AFTER KILLING THEM. LEVEL UP, GET STRONG, AND PREPARE FOR YOUR WORST TEST.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur's expression darkened as implications crashed over him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten minutes... this is pathetic. People can barely survive against current beasts, and the upcoming test is most likely demons again, but on a larger scale.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>New players are basically doomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur felt the familiar weight of his equipment materialising around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ring of Darkness pulsed on his finger. Chaos Katana hung at his side. His storage ring on his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avatar and body merged. Full power accessible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting another second, Arthur coated himself with spatial energy and teleported into Charlotte's room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep. Beep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Medical monitors tracked vital signs that remained worryingly weak. Arthur carefully removed the breathing apparatus from Charlotte's pale face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fingers found the healing potion—concentrated life essence worth more than most people's annual salaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The liquid glowed with internal radiance that spoke of miraculous properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please... please, Charlotte.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pure white light surrounded her unconscious form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone had awakened, including his sister. The energy radiating from her position confirmed talent activation, which meant mana poisoning was no longer a concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She is safe to drink the potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur popped the cork and lifted Charlotte's head gently. The healing potion flowed between her lips like liquid hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't worry that she would choke, as the mana potion instantly gets absorbed by the body. You could throw the liquid on your skin, and you would still get the benefit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waited. Seconds stretched into eternity as medical monitors continued their monotonous beeping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She's not awake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur forced himself to wait another full minute, counting heartbeats that seemed to mock his desperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Defeat weighed on his shoulders like physical chains. The one person who mattered most, and his power couldn't save her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not yet. There is still one more thing.\u003C\u002Fp>",1009,"2026-06-06T12:00:36.158Z",1,"novelbin.me","11a6eadb8b2216eca789c6b81f361f418cccb7ee6092a0049bf50f2e956c7ef1","online-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-chapter-432","online-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-chapter-431",601,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fonline-game-starting-with-sss-ranked-summons-cover.jpg"]
