Chapter 193: Poison (7), Mayhem Begins

Three hours later, the formations to fight at the border of the calamity region were ready.

The demon families began deploying their teleportation gates and activating communication lines.

The flood of monsters would be chaotic, so if one of the areas had to face a large horde of Sovereign-rank Monsters, they could shift the position of the strongest flags and move the Tamers there via portals to eliminate the danger before it broke the line and went past the border.

The demon family had quite a lot of Sovereign-rank Tamers who descended from the higher-rank world.

Each family had at least a thousand Sovereign-rank Tamers, with roughly 10% of them being at the peak of Sovereign-rank, and having at least one Legendary-rank Pet Monster.

Sovereign-rank demon tamers could put 60 Monsters in their Demonic Beast Pocket, though they couldn’t put Monsters above their rank, so each of them had sixty Sovereign-rank Monsters stored for sacrifice.

Since the calamity was nearing earlier than expected, the tamers were getting into positions with logistic divisions working to keep everyone geared up and fed in various camps.

Sovereign-rank Tamers took the frontlines and also had the flags. Although the ten flags were not enough to cover the whole border, they could be shifted to different spots via portals according to the situation.

After John exited the meeting, he summoned his island in the sky above the border and contacted Azelis.

Unfortunately, they didn’t find any demon-possessed.

John didn’t waste time on that anymore since he got no leads and took everyone in the calamity region to train their monsters with an army of not one hundred, but five hundred peak Sovereign-rank Monsters accompanying them.

A group of that size under a command was more terrifying than five hundred peak Sovereign-rank Monsters in an area.

Because a group under a command could direct their attacks with precision, allowing them to obliterate any enemy.

The Sovereign-rank Tamers of demons and other forces would also have to create a formation with their Pet Monsters to fight against the flood of Monsters during the calamity.

John and others wasted no time. There was also no lack of Monsters here, and the frenzied monsters were already high in number.

The rift at the core of this region was also getting more and more unstable, so the calamity was inbound in two days.

After ten hours of adventuring and training amidst the chaotic wilderness of the calamity region, everyone trained their Pet Monsters to the peak of their rank, including Azelis, who finally made her Pets reach peak and did their Gene Potential Bursts twice.

John also got a lot of Geno Points from the hunt of various monsters, allowing the possibility of a lot of mutation and evolution for the monsters.

After turning to Monster Paradise, John started the evolution of everyone’s Pet Monsters, including his, as well as Starry and other Monsters who were not Pets of anyone.

Afterward, everyone ate custom the fruits of their respective attributes to achieve enlightenment.

Less than two days were left, so this was the last enlightenment until the calamity was over.

John was getting antsy again with his gaze darting around Yuna, Jibril, and Azelis due to the poison after ten hours of training in the wilderness, so he wasted no time eating fruits of the Chronolight attribute and entering enlightenment after eating twenty-two fruits.

The poison’s effect was affecting him in achieving enlightenment, but he finally got it after eating twenty-two of them.

...

"Damn it. His soul became immune somehow. What’s going on?" Minera frowned.

[ Share with me the data and your reading of his soul. I’ll take a look. Becoming immune to that poison is no joke. ]

"Take a look."

A couple of seconds later, the Devil figured it out.

[ That’s the force of enlightenment. His soul is in a sublime state, which is why it is immune to everything that affects it. But enlightenment is temporary. Once he is done with that, you can continue. ]

"Alright." Minera nodded. "Then in the meanwhile, I’ll concoct something. They made quite a formation to defend, but I don’t like it."

Exposing Mr. Sirius as John was useless because it would be of no help to her.

And with her devil-possessed gone, and the number of devils in her Hell Paradise realm being low, she needed more resources.

And the only way to get those resources was by killing people in her way and refining their souls.

[ Unlock the new recipe and that spell. You have enough points now. ]

"Yeah, that’s the plan." Minera’s eyes glinted. "And this is a good opportunity. While that bastard is in enlightenment, I’ll spread the virus."

As Minera began working in her new scheme, all the Tamers were in their camps and sections, ready.

Many monsters were already arriving at the border to attack the tamers, which was their ultimate calling in their frenzied state.

Their goal was to kill tamers.

Sovereign-rank Tamers at the forefront mostly focused Sovereign-rank Monsters and let the lower rank Monsters go past their areas so that Emperor-rank Tamers and others could fight them.

Everything was good, and the Tamers were prepared despite the looming fear of the calamity.

But then, a few hours later, it began...

A sulfurous wind whispered through the northern bend of the calamity border, almost imperceptible beneath the roaring gusts of battle-ready energies. It slithered across the ground like a phantom, weaving through the camps unnoticed—at first.

Minera hovered far above, cloaked in her veil of Hellweave shadow, a cursed grimoire open in her hands, its pages writhing with infernal glyphs. Blood pooled from her fingertip, marking the center of a forbidden diagram—a viral spell recipe she had just unlocked with her accumulated Hell Points.

The concoction was neither a poison nor a miasma in the traditional sense. It was a viral essence of Sin itself. A living contagion of amplified desire, madness, and indulgence—Cradle of Gluttoned Flesh, she called it.

Its purpose was simple: erode discipline. Shatter camaraderie. Break minds.

And it began... subtly.

Below, in the camps near the eastern post, a group of Silver-rank Tamers sitting by their firepit for supper began to squabble. Over who got the biggest cut of the beast’s meat. Then it became louder. Insults flew. Accusations of theft. One of them stood up and drew their blade.
