Heretic Trainer: The Gym Is My Cultivation Method-Chapter 433: That Escalated To Chimera Fast

The demon hovered in the air above the hall, black mana swirling around his body like smoke.

Even after Sorien’s domain had weakened his attack, the demon still looked relaxed. "Do you really think that domain of yours can defeat me?"

The dark energy around him pulsed again, filling the hall with an oppressive pressure.

Sorien frowned as he wiped the thin line of blood from his cheek with the back of his hand.

The injury was small, but it was enough to show that the demon was not ordinary.

His eyes turned cold. "So you think that little trick was impressive?"

The golden light around him intensified.

The swords floating inside the [Sol Radiant Order] domain began to vibrate as Sorien released more power. "Then let me end this quickly."

Before the demon could react, Sorien moved.

A single blade of pure light formed behind him. [Silent Severance]

The sword shot forward silently, and the next second, the blade pierced straight through the demon’s chest.

The demon’s body jerked violently as the radiant sword passed through him, tearing open a deep wound across his torso.

Black blood spilled into the air as the demonic energy around him destabilized.

He staggered backward in the air, clearly badly injured.

Sorien stepped forward calmly, the golden swords of his domain still floating around him. "It’s over."

The demon looked down at the hole in his chest and then started laughing. "Hahaha..."

The laughter echoed through the hall, making several Draconia members uneasy.

"You really think killing me will stop anything?"

He looked directly toward Darius. "Lord Darius... we will be waiting for you."

Darius’s face turned pale for a moment. "What nonsense are you talking about!"

But before anyone could stop him, the demon suddenly raised one clawed hand.

Then he drove it straight into his own chest.

Dark energy exploded outward as his body began collapsing.

The demon’s body dissolved into black smoke that quickly scattered through the air.

The hall fell into stunned silence.

Sorien slowly lowered his hand and turned his head toward Darius.

The golden swords of his domain faded, but the authority in his gaze became even heavier.

Darius immediately raised his voice. "No."

His expression was furious. "I am not connected to that demon."

Sorien didn’t react emotionally.

He simply stared at him for a moment before speaking. "Silence."

The single word froze the hall.

"From this moment on," Sorien continued calmly, "the Draconia Clan will no longer be recognized as a Grand Faction."

The words struck like thunder.

Darius’s eyes widened. "You..."

Sorien didn’t stop. "And until this matter is fully investigated, all members of the Draconia Clan will be detained."

The Draconia guards around the hall looked shocked.

Darius’s aura exploded again. "You dare!"

Sorien took another step forward, his golden aura rising again. "Of course I dare."

His voice was calm but absolute. "The Solmira Clan’s duty has always been clear."

His eyes hardened. "We exist to eliminate demons."

He looked directly into Darius’s eyes. "And anyone who works with them."

For a brief moment, the hall remained silent. The remaining Draconia elders stood frozen in place, unsure whether to move or speak.

Darius’s face twisted with anger.

"Dammit, Sorien," he growled. "You leave me no choice."

His hand slowly moved inside his robe. When it came out again, he was holding a small dark stone.

Garion narrowed his eyes. "That doesn’t look friendly."

Before anyone could react, Darius crushed the stone in his palm. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

CRACK!

The moment the stone shattered, a ripple of dark energy spread through the hall. The air twisted slightly as space itself distorted.

Then suddenly... Someone appeared.

A man slowly descended from above the hall entrance, riding a massive bird covered in black flames.

The creature’s wings stretched wide, and every flap sent waves of dark heat across the room.

Several Draconia guards stumbled backward in fear.

Garion raised his eyebrows. "Well... that’s dramatic."

The man riding the bird looked down calmly at Darius.

"So," he said lazily, "have you decided?"

His eyes were sharp, and the faint demonic aura around him made the atmosphere even heavier. "What do you think, Darius?"

Darius looked up at him without hesitation. "Yes."

His voice was firm now. "Pelion... I accept."

A few elders gasped quietly.

Darius continued. "The Draconia Clan will join the Black Chimera."

The words echoed through the hall like thunder.

Sorien’s expression changed instantly. His calm composure cracked for the first time. "You..."

His aura flared violently. "You truly are a bastard, Darius!"

Garion glanced sideways at Sorien.

"Okay, I’m missing some context here," he said. "What exactly is the Black Chimera?"

Sorien didn’t take his eyes off Darius.

"We’ll talk about it later," he said coldly. "Right now this is worse than you think."

Above them, Pelion watched the entire exchange with clear amusement.

"Good, Darius," he said with a wide grin. "You made the correct decision."

His gaze slowly moved toward the others. "And to think... Sun Warden Sorien is here personally."

He gave a casual nod. "What an honor."

Sorien’s fists tightened.

"Pelion," he said sharply. "Don’t think you’ll escape this time."

Pelion only chuckled. "Ehehe..."

Garion watched him carefully. The black flame bird beneath Pelion shifted slightly, its eyes glowing like burning coals.

Something about the situation felt wrong.

Without warning, Garion suddenly grabbed Sorien’s shoulder with one hand and Dahlia’s arm with the other.

"Hey!"

Sorien turned in surprise. "What are you doing?"

Garion’s expression had turned serious. "We’re leaving."

Before either of them could argue, Garion’s body released a powerful burst of gravity energy.

The force pulled them upward violently as if the air itself had become a launching platform.

The three of them shot straight out of the hall, crashing through the open ceiling and into the sky above the Draconia Clan.

The entire movement happened in seconds.

Inside the hall, Pelion watched them disappear and burst into laughter. "Hahaha!"

One of the Draconia guards looked up nervously. "Should we chase them?"

Pelion waved his hand casually. "Don’t bother."

The black flame bird beneath him folded its wings slightly. "Let them go."

His eyes narrowed with amusement. "Things are about to get far more interesting."
