The Primordial Tamer



Stella and Orion began to leave the tower. Within seconds, they were enveloped in a blinding light, and then, just as quickly, it dissipated. Orion looked around, realizing that they had been teleported out of the tower.

The teleportation was so fast that it took Orion a moment to get his bearings. He looked down at himself, checking that everything was still in order. 

As soon as Orion emerged from the teleportation, he realized that he was not alone. He scanned the area and saw that there were many disciples from various sects waiting for him.

His eyes then fell upon a figure standing at the center of the commotion, confronting the other disciples. It was Aurora, a fellow sect member and one of Orion's closest friends.

"Aurora, what are you doing here?" Orion called out to Aurora, his voice echoing through the crowd of disciples from other sects.

Aurora, who was still engaged in combat with the other disciples, turned her head at the sound of Orion's voice. Her eyes widened in surprise, momentarily causing her to lose focus on the fight. But she quickly regained her composure and continued battling her opponents.

Aurora walked towards Orion, her expression serious. "I'm just getting rid of these guys. They seem to think that you took all the treasures in the tower," she explained.

Orion was taken aback by her words. "What treasures?" he thought to himself, confused. He knew that there were no treasures inside the tower, but it seemed that the other disciples were convinced otherwise. He let out a sigh, realizing that he wouldn't be able to reason with them.

"They won't listen to me anyway," he muttered to himself.

Aurora stepped closer to him, her eyes scanning his face. "You seem tired," she said softly, concern etched on her features.

Orion looked up at her, surprised by her sudden change in tone. He offered her a small smile, grateful for her concern.

"I'm feeling good, actually," he replied, trying to reassure her. "But thank you for worrying about me."

Aurora nodded, but her eyes still held a hint of worry. "I'll fall back then," she said, taking a step back. "But be careful, okay? These disciples can be ruthless."

Orion nodded, appreciating her advice. He watched as she disappeared into the crowd of disciples, readying himself for the fight ahead.

As Aurora retreated, Mason stepped forward and confronted Orion with an annoyed expression.

"So, you're the one who cleared the tower," Mason said, his eyes fixed on Orion.

Orion met his gaze, trying to stay calm despite the tension in the air. "That's right," he replied evenly. "Is there a problem?"

Mason narrowed his eyes, clearly not impressed. "You think you're better than the rest of us just because you made it through the tower?" he spat. "We'll see about that."

Without warning, Mason commanded his beast, a rock golem named Rocky, to attack Orion. The golem obeyed its master's command and charged at Orion, preparing to strike him with a heavy rock punch.

Mason smirked as he watched Orion prepare to take the blow, convinced that he would easily defeat him. "Is this the one that Aurora warned us about? He is too weak," he taunted, relishing in the prospect of crushing his opponent's spirit.

But as Rocky's punch connected with Orion, Mason's satisfaction quickly turned to disbelief. Despite the force of the blow, Orion remained standing, barely even flinching. Mason's eyes widened in shock as he realized that he may have underestimated his opponent.

"I-impossible," he stuttered, staring in disbelief as the rock punch disintegrated upon impact with Orion's raised hand. Mason's smirk faltered as he realized that his opponent was far stronger than he had anticipated.

Orion looked at Mason, a smug smile forming on his lips. "Is this it?" he asked, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

Mason's confidence faltered as he watched Orion brush off the attack with ease. "You're stronger than I thought," he grudgingly admitted, his eyes fixed on Orion. "But don't get too cocky. You haven't seen the full extent of my power yet."

Orion only rolled his eyes at Mason's words. "You are too weak," he retorted, his voice dripping with disdain. "My beast alone is enough to defeat you all."

With a smug grin on his face, Orion raised his hand, and a brilliant light shone forth as he began to chant an incantation.

Mason watched in awe as a massive rhinoceros began to materialize from Orion's Beast Space. The beast was enormous, towering up to the ceiling and taking up nearly half the room.

As the summoning was completed, Mason's jaw dropped in awe at the sight of the beast that now stood before them. The Crystal Rhinoceros, known as Atlas, was nothing like he had ever seen before.

Its body was covered in jagged crystal shards that glinted in the light, and its eyes glowed with an eerie blue light. Mason couldn't help but feel a sense of dread wash over him as he gazed upon the magnificent creature.

The Crystal Rhinoceros was a true marvel of nature. Its body was made entirely of glittering crystal, and it shone with an otherworldly radiance.

The crystals that covered its body were razor-sharp and looked as though they could easily cut through steel. Its massive horns were made of a translucent blue crystal, and they glinted menacingly in the dim light.

Atlas' eyes, which glowed with a strange blue light, looked almost hypnotic in their intensity. Mason couldn't help but feel a sense of unease as he stared into them.

The beast stood motionless as though waiting for Orion's command. Its muscles rippled beneath its crystalline skin, giving it a sense of strength and power that was almost palpable.

Mason was awestruck by the magnificent creature before him. The Crystal Rhinoceros was a true marvel of nature, and its appearance left him feeling a sense of wonder mixed with a touch of fear.

As Orion gazed upon the creature, even he couldn't help but feel shocked by its appearance. "What the hell? Is this the same Atlas I knew?" he wondered in his mind.
