Three, four, five, until it bes nine dragon head forcefullying out from the ruins ground.
They shouted loudly, signaling their presence to the Abyssal. Their pre-screams were so intense that Jade and all the people in the ruins had to cover their ears to endure the pain.
As in Catastrophe in Land of Honor, the nine dragons proimed their presence throughout Floor 2.

Eve Horizon / Shangri-La
"Two times in a month, really?"
"Ooooooooooooohhh! I can feel it! Ars must be at the scene! He''s really close from here! I have to go to his ce!"
"Nope, you are not going anywhere, little fox."
____________
Northern Region / Wyvern Hub
Dragon King Castle /
In the king''s pce room, to be precise, in the outside balcony. A man, the king of the castle, is rxing alone in his chair. Sincerely looking at the beauty of the sky he reigns.
Until there is a man wearing a reddish ck cloake to him and shout.
"King! My King!"
The king get up but still looking at the sky.
"It''s Emperor! How many times have I told you, call me Emperor!"
The king the Emperor is angry because he being called king instead of his Terra calling, Emperor.
" I am one of the six Emperor. Alexander."
"We know that king-"
"Emperor! Geez, why I feel you never respect me at all. So, why youe to me? Is it lunchtime already?"
"No, my king. We are here to inform you that a Catastrophe once again is to appear."
"I know, I heard those monsters scream well. But, where is it this time?"
"It''s in the Northeast Territory."
"Oh, yeah-yeah, I knew that. It''s in, in the, where is it again?"
"In the Ruins of Ancient Cognity"
"Yeah-yeah, Ruins of Ancient Cognity! Of course it happened there because there are only two regions in that territory."
"Yes, my king. And that is happen a week after the Greedy Young Master disappeared."
"Ahh, that person. Yeah, I remember him. So he went to the Northeast Territory first, huh?"
There is a trouble going on in the neighborhood territory but the king casually just rxing.
"You look so rxed, king."
"Well, I am. What? You expect me to worry or something. Why? There is two Emperor and one ex-Emperor. And only four territory to rule. But that northeast region is so dark like DC movies. That is why, if that greedy man wants to really own this whole floor, he need toe to us and defeat us and I am ready for it. So why need to worry?"
Despite looks so rxed, the king is actually had thinking something big in his head that tells his people to don''t worry.
"And please, it''s Emperor. Why do you strongly refuse to call me that?"
"I am so sorry, Emperor."
"Good, now, if you don''t have anymore to talk to me, I would like to have a nice, lonely ce."
"Then, I ask for leave, king."
"You, skjksjwhksh!"

Back to Ruins of Ancient Cognity /
The screams of the nine dragons were done, and everyone finally had time to breathe.
"That''s a big ass nine-headed dragon!"
If put them together, the nine dragon heads were the same width as the Green Boy, and it was still their head.
"That must be Hydra!"
Jade was the first to recognize the monster''s name.

"OMG! We are dead! Seonbae, we should run from it now!"
"No!"
They were dealing with a Catastrophe Beast who had appeared for the first time, and Jade strongly refused the invitation to run.
"But why?!"
"Our mission haven''t done yet."
Everyone in the tree was worried about the appearance of the Catastrophe Beast. Meanwhile, Jared is still being blocked by Jade''s subordinates.
"You guys sure don''t want to look for the dragon? The dragon is a new monster, you will lose the hype if you don''t look now!"
Jared tried to distract them.
"But as expected of tinum Hunters. You guys won''t let go of a demon like me even if yourrades are in danger, huh?"
At Jared''s question, a Tank with full armor and shield and sword, staring at hisrades who all nodded.
"What? You guys finally decided to spare me."
"No."
The Tank walks forward to Jared with strong intention.
"We will kill you and back to our group."
The Tank raised his sword, ready to cut off Jared''s head.
"Unfortunately, you can''t."
Jared opened his mouth and fired a dark mana ball.`
The Tank reflexively lifted his shield.
Jared''s attackscked destructive power. But that caused a dense smoke that envelop them all.
The Tank immediately realized Jared''s true motive.
"He''s running away!"
Jared burst out of the smoke and ran to the ruins.
"Don''t think this Great Jared will die in your hands!"
Jared managed to escape, and the Vanguards could do nothing to catch up with him. Without the eyes of the Archers, who were preupied with the appearance of the Catastrophe Beast, they wouldn''t be able to stop him.

"Hydra?!"
Elisa shocked at the name of the nine-headed dragon.
The Hydra was trying to try to get out of the ground, the hole from which it was pulling itself out is a hellhole.
[The Gate of Hell''s Judgement]
"Why the hell he crawling himself from hell when Fanrir out there being escorted like a majesty?" asked Ars.
It is true. Compared to Fafnir, Hydra is like a dog thates out of the hole of his house to go y outside.
"But that''s what makes him look even terrifying, right?"
Roger flew along with Ars and Elisa on the side.
They saw the Catastrophe Beast crawling out of the pit of hell,ing out to ravage the Ruins of Ancient Cognity.
"Finally, I could see the dragon out to the terra."
They are talking about a dragon aCatastrophe Beast. However, Roger looked at the dragon with a feeling of nostalgia.
"Why do you look at that lizard like looking at your pet you have been waiting for so long toe to this world?"
Roger smiled at Ars'' question. "It''s an old story."
"It''s a shback."

One day in the past / Ruins of Ancient Cognity
"Roger,e here! Look!"
His leader called him. It looks like she had found something that made her happy.
"What is it, Saint Lady?"
"Look at this wall! There is something drawn on it! A picture of a nine-headed dragon!"
He looks at the wall and got startled. The sight of the image of the nine-headed dragon already terrorized him.
"And think if its appear ande to terra?!"
"It will cause great destruction."
It was like a sign that they shouldn''t summon the creature ande to terra.
"Let''s summon it!"
"Nope, no, we won''t. Let''s go back to the group and go eat."
"Why we won''t? Let''s summon it! That would be a st if we fight it."
"Like when we fought the Great Yama. No, I don''t think we should fight it when we could just past through it."
-----//-----
"Aina! Aina!"
There was a very big incident going on far behind him. But Arlene doesn''t care. He kept walking to find where the previous jet crashed.
"Aina!"
He had followed the ne''s crash path, but had not found the ne yet.
Until someone coughing not far from his position.
Rob finally regained consciousness after crashing for the second time.
"God dammit! Why is everyone always trying to stop me?!"
He flicked around his face to get rid of the dusts.
"Jarvis, talk to-!"
"Robert!"
Robert was just about to start over, but the most annoying person hade back to bother him.
"YOU! Why are you so stubborn!"
Rob took something from his shirt pocket. A gun, aimed at the red-haired Bounty Hunter.
The red-haired Bounty Hunter stopped. He is aware of Rob''s threat, but only for the first second.
"Shoot."
Rob didn''t hear wrong. "What?"
"Shoot if you want to shoot me. Why? You can''t? Just shoot and kill me. With that, I will stop trying to catch you."
The Bounty Hunter is not afraid of Rob''s threat. Even though what he is holding is a real gun that could kill him. But he was not afraid.
Rob is the one who is afraid of his own threat instead. Holding the gun, his hands trembled. He started breaking out in a cold sweat.
"You can''t do it, huh? You are afraid of killing. But you don''t hesitate to poison a little girl just for your stupid dreams!"
"It''s not stupid! Don''t you get that I want to free all of us from this hell?! Back to our real world! But why all of you trying to stop me when I''m trying to be a hero here?!"
"Because that is what''s wrong with you! And on top of that, you tried to kill your own daughter for that! That''s what''s wrong with your stupid brain!"
