The corpse of the giant beast shattered. The bodies of many Merit Giants faded like insubstantial shadows under the sunlight. Luckily, death was brief, and the deceased Merit Giants were slowly reviving.
Yet for everyone, this marked an unprecedented victory.
The last giant beast had been exterminated by them, and the price they paid was merely some time and the destruction of assets.
This feat allowed the Merit Giants to be completely free from the shadow of the giant beasts, signifying another leap forward, ushering in the true Giant Era.
As for the five humans who had successfully achieved Ascension, no one paid them any mind, for they were not Merit Giants, but humans.
