Midnight Crystal (Part 35)

 Essence Scarlet Pyromancer - Nothing in this world Katrin wanted more than to kill this monster and take its Initial Gene for herself. She had seen the 3D model, photos, and videos of this monster more often than her face.

In a way, she was obsessed with this monster like some kind of madman, for she knew simply everything about Essence Scarlet Pyromancers, from their abilities and physical attributes to their preferred habitats and appearance down to the tiniest detail. 

Now, this was the first time she had seen a Scarlet Pyromancer in person rather than through the prism of a video or monitor.

The monster's entire body was covered in dark red armor, two massive wings releasing a wave of flame trying to burn everything around it. The beetle's long thick horn looked like a spear covered in scarlet flames, capable of piercing even the heavens if necessary.
