The Benevolents also had their own share of damages and casualties, with the Benevolent god of wood falling at the hands of the Malevolent god of Lightning before the latter was put out of commission by his Benevolent counterpart.
Also put out of commission, were the Benevolent gods of wind and Lightning, along with many of their half-god subordinates.
As the battle drew to a close, only the gods of Earth, Fire, Space and Light remained suitable for battle on the Benevolents' side.
But that was much better than the Malevolents who only had the gods of Shadows and Metal in a state remotely capable of combat while the Lightning god was far too injured to risk battle anymore.
What's more, Esna's mere presence was weakening their powers, and the buffs she placed on Layla Edward, Nicole and their allies were all making their attacks more effective on the malevolent gods.
