Inside the workshop's command room, Allen set down his glass of chilled dewfruit juice, his eyes locked on the screen.
In the center of the lava lake, the churning, dark-red magma suddenly fell still.
Then, the surface of the lake caved violently inward, forming a massive vortex over a hundred meters in diameter.
BOOM!
A thick pillar of lava erupted toward the sky.
From within the pillar of fire, the upper torso of a thirty-meter-tall giant slowly emerged.
It had no physical body of flesh and blood; its entire form was composed of pure, flowing flames and blindingly white-hot molten rock. Its face had only three black, gaping holes for eyes and a mouth.
With its appearance, the lake's surface level dropped visibly. A massive amount of Fire Elemental Magic Power was being forcibly drained from the lake and drawn into its body.
The Fire Elemental Monarch.
