Holy Kingdom of Ruberios,
Eastern Seaside,
Luminous POV,
Luminous stumbled forward gritting her teeth, if necessary she would fight down to her last breath! In a burst of speed she kicked Gladim in the guts before transforming her hands into claws and slamming them right through his chest.....though it didn't work, before they could make contact Gladim deflected them with his own claws and punched her in the chest sending her flying back.
She crashed into the ground, "Give up girl." Gladim said folding his arms, she fought this much in such a hopeless situation, that was commendable....and it made it much more exciting when he thought about breaking her! Once more getting on her feet she attacked again, "Are you an idiot?!" she shouted hitting his head, he grabbed her leg though this time she left this opening on purpose. With a small grin on her face she twisted her own leg breaking it in the process and with the Night Rose left a long gash on his chest.
She jumped back and wiped the blood from her mouth, "Who do you...think I am?" she asked, smiling widely and narrowing her eyes, she wasn't some weakling, no she was the Queen of the Vampires, a True Ancestor and one who was hailed as the Queen of Nightmares! "I am...Demon Lord Luminous Valentine!" she announced loudly with a hand on her chest, she would never lose to a damned cat!
Though immediately after that she fell to her knees and coughed out blood, this battle was taking too much of a toll on her. Something that disrupts magicules was completely unprecedented so her shock was understandable, there was no way someone could predict a weapon that literally disrupts the building blocks of monsters.
"I can't fall." she muttered out once more, forcing herself up. Gladim touched the blood gushing from his chest and grinned, "That's good." he commended her, she was actually very admirable. Though even a ruler wouldn't go this far for her people, he couldn't understand it, "However before I kill you, I want to know. Why do this girl?"
Luminous laughed and stumbled a bit, "I bet a barbarian couldn't understand." she said making fun of him before it turned into a scowl, "You will not address me like that cat." she said a bit annoyed, this man thought too much of himself! Gladim's lips twitched hearing her words, this girl may be delusional, she was clearly the one losing! Yet she talked like it was her victory.
He looked behind at the airships which had almost reached them, these things traveled at 400 km/h and they were quite far off when both sides noticed each other. But now there was a force of 400,000 here, prepped and ready for combat. They would lay waste to this place! He looked at the vampire amused, "So then tell me." he said folding his arms, the wound had already healed back up.
At that moment Luminous' scowl was replaced by a bright smile, "Why of course it's because he asked me!" she said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, why else would she put herself through all this. Though that was the last straw, Gladim quickly looked around as a chill went down his spine, something was extremely wrong.
[Conditions met...Unique Skill Lust is evolving to...Ultimate Skill Lustful King Asmodeus...successful.]
His eyes widened in shock from the amount of magic in the air, "This is..?!" there was too much magic gathering here, just what the hell was about to happen?! "S-Sir look up!" a soldier quickly informed him, though even through the thought communication the amount of fear in his voice was apparent. At the same time many looked up in a mix of awe and fear, this was just too much!
"My god." Gladim muttered out looking up, the clouds had parted and a red spear like beam was falling down the sky. What happened in the next few seconds only Gladim and Luminous knew, of course that was the holy lance Longinus, it's output had been lowered by a lot so as to not accidentally blow up the world but it still left them in awe-no not fear pure awe.
As soon as it crashed into the ground a red wave spread out covering everything within a certain radius, no it didn't make the rest of the world blow up like the Rhogomyniad would. Instead the area covered by the red wave acted like a base and was blown sky high as a gigantic beam ascended to the heavens, as if.... something was puncturing or as some would put it piercing through the planet itself.
Accompanying that was an Earthquake that shook the entire world, no it wasn't because the core blew up. It was due to the sheer force and momentum the beam carried...ignore the fact that it probably destroyed several solar systems when it actually imploded somewhere in space. Galahad and collateral damage had a very good relationship with each other even though the man hated it, it seemed to love him.
Gladim looked at the crater in the sea with his eyes bulging out, there was no way he could take that and still stand! Conquer the world? No, that was impossible as long as something that could actually do that lived. It's not that the crater was small either, it literally spanned over a fixed amount of space that decimated the Imperial army only though the crater left behind made it look like something bore a hole through the world itself.
"That was controlled." he muttered out, letting out a sigh of defeat, 400,000 men gone just like that. It was too much of a coincidence that something that destructive in nature would only kill his men and nothing more. Though it wasn't something worth thinking about, if it was that strong that meant he could just suck up to it! "So g-g-gi....girl?" he stuttered turning back, Luminous stood completely healed with her arms folded and a smirk on her face.
"So let me show you what my all is." she said a bit angry, this bastard threatened to play around with and rape her. She was for him so the thought of this trash touching her made her nauseous! "You piss me off." she muttered out her eyes glowing with energy and punched straight forward, even though she didn't touch him once the sheer force blew his upper half off and parted the entire sea. Luminous was a Peak True Demon Lord, this level of trash would have died on first contact if she was actually using her full power.
Locking her hands together she looked at the parted sky with hearts in her eyes, "Galahad~." she muttered squirming in place. Louis coughed slightly informing her that he was still here but was kicked in the face and was sent crashing into the background, "Shut up Louis!" Luminous said stomping her foot, the fool ruined her moment!

Galahad POV,
Galahad looked at the crying True Dragon and sighed, he may have gotten a bit too worked up earlier but it wasn't his fault! He was usually too lazy for anger so it was unlike him. He was too lazy for romance too so he usually tried to not get attracted to anyone. Earlier he had a feeling that something was wrong so he used his Clairvoyance to observe the entire world and found the cause.
Luminous was beaten and bloody and that made an extremely uncharacteristic anger well up in him, so he pushed it down. He didn't need this stuff! As he punched the shit out of Velgrynd he kept an eye on Luminous too. She got beaten so much probably because she didn't want her people killed.....was his thought process.
But then when he heard that she did it only because he asked her too, his heartbeat sped up. For him? Someone would go that far for a selfish bastard like him? So much so that they may end up dying? He knew she would but still it was just a thought, a suspicion. People show their true colors when faced with Death after all and this was...That made even his usually unresponsive eyes widen in shock, he was getting worked up! He touched his chest in disbelief, there was no way right? During this Velgrynd was let free and instead of attacking the True Dragon started wailing....she was still ignored though.
Though by that time Galahad had already thrown the Longinus, thankfully Raphael managed to control the output otherwise this world may have gone poof. He was angry and worked up, that was something entirely foreign. Yes he got angry several other times like even now when he attacked the Empire out of pure anger but he had never gotten genuinely angry for someone.
Velgrynd looked at the man who beat the shit out of her with teary eyes, first she gets ignored by Rudra and now she gets beaten to death by a complete stranger...ok maybe not a stranger but what did she do to deserve this. That's not the problem though, this idiot seemed to be having a realization or something.
Well judging by the way he was furiously shaking his head as if denying something and opening and closing his mouth to speak but nothing was coming out as his face slightly heated up...this guy may have just realized something that happened a long time ago but he was repressing it.. She smirked, "Oh you smitten with someone boy?" she asked amusedly, though the tears on the corner of her eyes didn't exactly make her look like an Onee-san type.
"Shut up lizard." he responded and sat down thinking, there was no way for this to happen. He made sure to repress those types of feelin- oh shit. That's the problem, bottled up/repressed feelings of attraction that came bursting out when he was exposed to a situation which encouraged strong emotions of that type. An emotional outburst was a totally possible scenario! Though that may be the wrong term. He slammed his fist into the ground annoyed, "How could I....?" he muttered out in a mix of annoyance and disbelief.
He refused to believe he cared about someone that way and he was also annoyed because romance is a lazy person's arch nemesis! He yawned and looked around lazily, nodding his head a bit almost dozing off. He was thinking too much, this wasn't for him. Though one thing was sure no more repressing his feelings if it could actually backfire this badly.
Oh he was pretty sure he was a psychopath with how this happened alone, and so right in the middle of battle he stopped repressing his feelings completely ignoring the surroundings, these people weren't worth that, this was much more important! The first thing he did, "Damn....I wanna go...home." he muttered out, ah yeah repressing his feelings and stopping that right here was a very bad idea but he was pretty sure future him could come up with a million reasons no to. "Also...is this...really right?" he muttered out, he wasn't supposed to fall or even like goddamnit!
God damn it, this was bad. Very bad. Romance? Galahad? No, the two just don't mix. How would he take care of her? How would he protect her? How would he provide? How would he ask? How would he interact? The lazy prick didn't even notice his already changing thought process. Galahad nodded his head with conviction, he needed to do something about this. This needed a lot more investigation.
At that moment Tatsuya aimed his pistol at Galahad, "Judgement Bullet." he muttered out activating his ultimate skill and fired at the unsuspecting Demon Lord, it was painfully obvious that he was out of it. Though the Imperial army was the same too, after seeing him throw a spear that tore the sky in half their morale was pretty low especially because Velgrynd got trashed a few moments ago.
