"Is everyone in their positions?"
Lucias asked while standing on top of a huge hill, looking down on the large empty area below them.
"Everyone is on stand by, they're just waiting for your signal"
Azazel answered while standing behind him with 5 other figures.
"Mash, Jeanne, Protect them at all cost, alright?"
Lucias says while turning his head back and looking at the 2 new girls joining their party.
One is a beautiful french woman with pure amethyst eyes and long golden hair tied in braids holding a large flag pole behind her as her slender body was covered by a large mantle with the symbol of the cross engraved on it.
The other is a young girl with lilac hair covering her right lavender eye and fair skin, wearing a skin-tight black armor that resembles an extremely short mini-dress and black gauntlets and boots, a garter on her right thigh while carrying large cross-shaped shield.
"Understood, Master" (Both)
"Thanks everyone, let's finish this putrid war shall we?"
Lucias says as a large explosion occured behind them at a far distance, indicating that the 2 alliance has started their besiege on each other.
"Let's start, Azazel, Lucifer you two can start, and everyone... Stay safe"
Lucias reminded before disappearing from his place along with Yuu to avoid any damage produced by the aftereffects of the spell that both of them will combine.
"It's been a while since we launched our strongest attack, didn't we Azazel?"
Lucifer says with a large smirk on his face before stretching out his arm and aiming his palm on the large empty land below them.
"How exciting"
Azazel replied while aiming her palm towards the sky as both of them concentrated all of their mana on their palm while staying close to each other to start the fusion of their spell.
"I Lucifer the ruler of hell
The progenitor of darkness
The origin of all evil
Command thy all of humanity to bow down by my power
May your sins bring forth power to decimate all in my presence
Sins of humanity, create a power to destroy all!
[Hymn of Decimation]"
Lucifer chanted as her blood red wings spread behind his back with several dark markings spreading across each wings as the sclera of her eyes turned jet black, an appearance that can spread fear among those who see it.
A large blood red magic circle with a large pentagon conjured on her palm, creating a small yet incredibly sinister marble of extreme concentration of mana, hungrily devouring all mana and the ashes of the elemental's surrounding them before firing a large wave of dark red demonic mana to the ground.
"Most merciful spirit
Eternal light in the darkness
I ask of you in my burdened hour
Illuminate me so I may be strong once more
I seek this of you in your divine presence, o eternal holiness
Glorify me with your glorious favor
Grant me the power to vanquish all evil and sins at my will!
[Retribution]"
Azazel followed as brilliant light covered her entire body, complimenting her pure golden wings behind her back, her halo shone gold as it grew bigger above her head until it resembled a large crown, bringing the sense of divinity and awe to everyone who witness her.
A large golden magic circle cleared the blood red clouds above them as a large beam of divine mana launched down to the ground on the same location that Lucifer's spell was aimed at.
As soon as both spells met, all of the mana that made them up started forcefully fusing one another from the sheer power and strength from the spell alone as they try to overpower one another due to their dominance nature.
The fusion then started to savagely absorb the mana around them to use it as a fuel to strengthen each other causing mass disintegration around their surroundings, causing waves of immense magic to travel through the land sending incredible pressure to those possessing lower amounts of elementals inside their body.
"... How long.... can you hold it... Azazel?"
Lucifer asked while feeling extreme discomfort all over her body from having her mana forcefully drained from her.
"About... 30 minutes?"
"That's long enough... we need to reach the core of the planet... don't inject more mana into... it and just let it absorb our mana... it will just tire us more if that happens"
"Under...stood"
Azazel nodded as she sat down on the ground to preserve her energy as cold sweat ran down their spines.
The spell slowly dug straight down in the core, disintegrating the land, water, and minerals around them as it quickly made its way towards the core of the planet.
"Try to... preserve your energy"
Lucifer says as she knelt down on the ground with both Mash and Jeanne cautiously looking around their surroundings to spot any uninvited guests that might attack them.
"Let's do our best, Jeanne-senpai"
Mash while holding her shield in front of her says with a serious expression on her face while looking at the frowning Jeanne beside her.
"For the sake of humanity"
Jeanne stated while spinning her flagpole behind her in a fighting stance as she let his guard up for any unexpected attacks.
-with Lucias-
[Why are we here, Lucias?]
Yuu wrote down as they both teleported close to Avent Heim, a large tree like structure floating above the sky, containing incredible amounts of books from different races that they destroyed in the past.
"I'm still far too soft, Yuu... I can't afford to sacrifice my companion"
Lucias answered with a helpless tone before a countless explosions rained down on the phantasma, alerting all of the Flügels and Artosh inside.
"The Ex-Machinas are already bombarding them with Airstrikes, Yuu be on standby until I shout the signal... Can you handle the effects of using your [Reality Warping]?"
Lucias asked with a worried tone while placing his hand on Yuu's head.
[I can handle it, but I want to go on a date with you alone after this]
Yuu wrote while smiling brightly at him with a slight flush on her face as she shyly hid her face behind the drawing pad.
"You don't need to ask, Yuu"
Lucias smiled at her cute actions before giving her a short kiss on the lips and forehead.
"I'll be right back"
Lucias says before using his newly bought skill to teleport close to Avent Heim.
[Skill: Teleportation - Upon activation teleports the user to his desired location that he either saw or has been to in the past.

-With Jibril-
"You're a disgrace to our kind, Jibril. How dare you turn your back against your creator!"
A man with an extremely mascular body and a black beard on his masculine face shouted in anger while facing Jibril along with thousand of Ex-Machinas on her back, looking down on them from the sky.
"I'm sorry, Artosh-sama but Lucias is more important to me than all of you combined"
Jibril smiled at them before condensing all of her spirit circuit's power into a giant Lance shining above her as the elementals on her wings shone brightly, spreading its light to all of the Ex-Machinas behind her.
The Ex-Machinas who saw her initiating attack, launched massive amounts of missiles constructed from the combination of elven magic and technology towards Artosh, completely ignoring the Flügels around them while the kempfa type Ex-Machinas fought them to protect the other attack units.
"[Heaven's Strike]"
Jibril shouted before firing the Lance of condensed power towards Artosh, destroying the throne behind him as a massive explosion and smoke of dusts covered the entire area.
"Jibril, you're still far too naive to think that such measly attack can harm me"
Artosh stated with ridicule as he came out of the clouds of dust, unscathed from her attack.
"I know, that's why I bought company"
She smiled while swallowing a green pill given to her by Lucias before a large pillar of brilliant golden mana, launching towards the sky appeared behind them.
"[EXCALIBUR]!!!"
Artoria shouted while holding the true form of Excalibur, allowing all to witness it's appearance that could not be described by mere human words,
She then swung her Excalibur down towards Artosh who was haughtily standing above them.
"[Heaven's Strike]!"
Jibril followed by launching her own attack to Artosh to distract him from blocking Artoria's attack.
But unexpected to them, a massive bomb appeared on top of Avent Heim as it quickly fell from the sky.
-with Riku-
"Success"
He smiled while observing the situation on Avent Heim, he gave Lucias and the others the information to block and survive the massive explosion of the E-Bomb from the elves for this moment. He gave the dwarves the information about the battle between the Ex-Machinas and Artosh to make them drop one bomb towards Avent Heim.
"It looks like you're right, the dwarves wouldn't miss this chance to eliminate their strongest contender"
Couronne said while hiding the children to a safe location to avoid the massive impact that can be produced form the combined attacks of Jibril, Artoria, Ex-Machinas, and the dwarves towards Avent Heim.
"This is the last help I can give you, Lucias so it's all up to you now"
Riku muttered before pulling his mask up to his face as he left along with the rest of Imanity to avoid the after shocks of their attacks.
-with Jibril-
"JIBRIL!!"
Artosh shouted as multiple attacks from the Ex-Machinas drowned his location, desperately blocking every single attack that comes in his way.
"Artosh-sama!"
The Flügels shouted as they simultaneously initiated Heaven's Strike and channeled the energy to Artosh to help him cast have the power enough to cast a more powerful attack of his own.
"I am tired of your charades, it's for you fools witness the true strength of a God!"
He haughtily said as he conjured a massive beam of light containing extreme power, enough to disintegrate anything that comes it way from existence, sending incredible fear towards Jibril's and Artoria's heart but held on as they remembered the goal that they had for fighting.
"I will not let you torment my people any longer!!"
Artoria shouted in anger, overcoming the fear that she felt as she poured more of her mana into Excalibur, creating a more powerful wave of brilliant light, aiming it towards Artosh who was preparing his attack.
"[God's Strike]"
Artosh says in a deep and powerful voice as a massive beam of condensed power from him and his creation launched towards the Ex-Machinas and Jibril.
"Master..."
Jibril called out in helplessness from seeing the massive attack aimed towards them as there was no way for them to dodge it in time. The Ex-Machinas erected a giant shield to try and deflect the attack aimed towards them.
"[Disperse]"
A soft and weak voice echoed throughout the battlefield bringing a sense of dread to those who heard it... like it was death itself that was speaking in their ears.
The massive beam's particles quickly disappeared around their surroundings before it could even hit the group of Ex-Machinas and Jibril, shocking Artosh as he felt extreme fatigue travel all over his body, the same along with the Flügels around him.
"What?!"
Artosh shouted with his last bit of strength while watching his most powerful attack disappear from his sight, saving Jibril and the Ex-Machinas in front of it.
"How can this be?!"
[Reality Warping has been activated]
[According to Eucliwood Hellscythe's words, the beam will be dispersed into nothingness]
The notification rang in front of Lucias who was observing everything from the side.
"Good job, Yuu"
Lucias praised while caressing the head of the unconscious Yuu on his arms from using [Reality Warping].
"The flügels will still be useful so, Artosh... Die by yourself"
Lucias says before teleporting all of the unconscious flügels on the ground far away from Avent Heim along with him and Yuu as the combined attacks buried Artosh to his grave as he shouted his last words.
"I... lost..."
He said as his body was devoured by the massive explosions produced from the attack as the Ex-Machinas protected themselves along with Jibril and Artoria from the impact and after shocks produced from it.
"We did it" (Artoria)
"Master..."
Jibril called before passing out on the arms of a Ex-Machina protecting her from the destruction produced by the explosion.
"Task Complete: All Ex-Machinas regroup and protect the site of the Suniaster"
An Ex-Machina transmitted towards all of his kind using [Collective Mind] as all of them rushed towards the empty land designated by Lucias.
-with Lucifer-
"Where's Lucias... It's almost... done"
Lucifer said as she felt the last drop of her strength getting sucked out from her body as their attack hit the core of the planet, causing a large pillar of blue light to launch towards the sky, revealing a dodecahedron shaped relic inside of it.
Lucifer and Azazel immediately passed out as soon as the last drop of their mana was drained from their body, falling into the embrace of Lucias who teleported to their location with Yuu on his back.
"Good job, you can rest now, Azazel, Lucifer"
Lucias whispered with a sweet smile next to their ear before giving them a short kiss on their cheeks.
"Mash, Jeanne, take care of them"
Lucias says to the two girls standing behind her as she placed them down gently on the ground before teleporting towards the Suniaster to finally complete the quest.
"With this the quest is over..."
Lucias smiled before reaching out his hand to grab the Suniaster but froze when he felt something destroying every fabric of tissue on his arms when he tried to reach out to it.
[Due to the player's race being deemed unworthy by the Suniaster, the player is unable to obtain it]
[Consuming 1 billion shop points to momentarily modify the player's body]
[Modification complete]
[The Suniaster has recognized the player as a worthy existence]
"... It's a good thing I finished my quest first before coming here... Or else everything will be for naught"
Lucias muttered as cold sweat ran down his back from the thought of failing everything form a single move.
The Suniaster shone as it entered inside his body, causing every spirit circuit connected to it to shine brightly before connecting to his own, rewriting his very magic circuit.
[Quest complete!]
