"Milady Lilith!"

Astaroth looked heartbroken as he saw the last bit of Lilith's soul being consumed by Sylph before the girl fell from the sky. Her screams of agony completely broke Astaroth's spirit, as fury began to quickly grow deeper within his demonic heart.

"This wasn't supposed to go this way… We were supposed to feast in your souls and blood… This bastard of a god told us it wasn't going to be challenging!" Astaroth roared. "And even if we died, our souls would simply go back to our world but now… Lilith's soul… Milady's soul… it was consumed?!"

Agni looked at Astaroth while narrowing his eyes. To the ancient dragon, his tears were those of a crocodile, and he didn't honestly gave a damn how much he was crying like a little baby. As an Ancient Dragon forged in battle and the wilderness, he didn't cared, quickly using this moment of weakness to strike.

"You're lowering your guard in front of me, you fool?! Dragon Meteor!!!"

FLUOOOSSSH!

Agni's entire body erupted with golden flames as his claws unleashed countless attacks against Astaroth's entire body, leaving gaping holes over the enormous snake's entire body, which were all being burned alive!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"SHAAAAAA…!"

Astaroth was caught off-guard as he began to agonize, however, he had Agni close once more. Within his vengeful fury, he quickly manipulated Agni's interior with his [Demonic Alchemy] and transmutation countless needles made out of the iron within the dragon's body, piercing his insides!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"GRAHHHH…!"

Agni quickly was caught off guard, as he vomited countless needles out of his own mouth.

"Damn bastard… I almost forgot about that power of yours…" Muttered Agni.

"I'll kill you now, so stay put! After that, I'll go after that damn kid and tear her to shreds! No… I will torture her first! I will make her agonize, scream, and cry! I want to see her last moments as her entire body is distorted by my poison! She'll melt alive!" Roared the wicked Astaroth, his anger was as clear as water, as an enormous quantity of Poisonous Slime was created out of his various snake heads and then shaped as countless tentacles that were thrown at Agni.

"I am not letting you touch that girl, you damn oversized snake!" Agni roared furiously, his enormous body erupting with countless flames as the many needles inside his body melted and turned to ashes, stopping their damage and also his bleeding. A storm of countless dragon-shaped fire projectiles exploded out of his body, reaching Astaroth's slime as both long-ranged attacks intercepted one another, exploding in a chain reaction across the skies.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

As they fought, Agni looked down, seeing that Sylphy was being carried by a white wolf towards her mother, and promptly healed. Agni was about to use his own magic to forcefully heal her through their connection, which would drain away most of his energy in the process and weaken him, but he was glad that didn't ended being the case.

However, deep down, he was still wondering what sort of insane power she used to eat a Demonic Soul, something that shouldn't even be possible to conventionally destroy other than by exorcizing it and sending it back to where it came from. That she did something like this means that Sylph possess a power capable of breaking all logic established… once more. It wasn't as if that didn't happened before, as of right now, the power he felt coursing through his body granted by her Class and her Spiritual Blessing Skill were also powers he couldn't properly explain. Magic, yet not…ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

As Lilith was defeated, the other two remaining True Demons fought even more viciously and monstrously, as the group led by the blue haired masked demon woman sneaked behind the barrier that Faylen had erected, which was now slowly fading away as her energy was beginning to deplete, she felt too tired now, even more after she forcefully healed Sylph… It was finally their time to strike.

"Sylphy, are you okay?" Aquarina ran towards Sylphy, who was resting over the floor, barely opening her eyes. She felt too weak even after being healed, not only she took the burden of all the powers and abilities she unleashed, but she had even overused so much Mana that her soul should had been shattered into pieces.

And although eating at Lilith's soul should had given her new power, this new power was strange, and more like a sickness that stuck to her body, making her entire body feel heavier and her soul exhausted.

Aquarina who had been fighting against the enormous swarm of monsters coming from outside with the aid of Zack, Ninhursag, and their spirits saw as Sylphy fought bravely with her eyes wide open. She was worried sick, and wished she could had stopped her, or at least, be strong enough to fight at her side…

Sylphy was just amazing in that moment, and although Aquarina felt regretful that she couldn't be useful to help her in that moment, she knew that if she had tried, she would had been just a burden to her. Nonetheless, she felt happy to see her healthy, although very exhausted.

Without hesitating, she hugged Sylphy with all her strength.

"Sylphyyy! Wuaaah! I was so worried!" Aquarina began to cry, kissing Sylphy's cheeks.

"I-I am fine… Don't cry, Aquarina." Sylphy said with a gentle smile. "You've done a great work keeping the monsters at bay…"

"S-Sylphy…" Aquarina cried, looking at Sylphy's eyes. "Are you okay now?"

"Yeah, yeah… Ugh…" Sylphy slowly tried to get up as she seemed to be struggling.

"Don't get up yet, your body can barely take it." Said her mother.

"I-I have… We have to keep fighting…" Sylphy muttered, looking at her mother, and then, noticing her barrier was shattered in many areas, as a group of people began to slowly enter through the large cracks in the barrier, they were all wearing black cloaks.

Ninhursag immediately confronted them, getting herself in front of them and protecting the children and the weakened Faylen.

"Who are you?!" Roared Ninhursag, her body quickly turning into that of a Wyvern she had acquired the ability to shapeshift just now.

"…Who are we?" The voice of laughter of a young woman with long blue hair could be heard, as she led the group of twelve people inside. "I suppose you can call us the Abyssal Eyes."

Sylph quickly realized who she was, the same woman she had fought back then, and those clothes were also similar to the people with her back then…

"T-Those are…!"
