Even by using the Evil Heart, the Magic Orb, and more to gain more energy and power through the creation of more quantities of Mana and also of Negative Energy, Chaos was still being pressured!

He was combining several techniques and attacks together all into his blade and his fast movements, enormous claws regrew on his shoulders, attacking the Forbidden One's accumulation of fragments with all the might he could muster.

However, the Forbidden One's had a power that could even transcend that, and even if only a fragment of the soul of that one entity, it was enough to surprise Chaos several times with enormously strong attacks!

Most of Chaos magical spells were also instantly negated by the Forbidden One's Chaotic Void Aura, as if it was Anti-Magic itself. And even most of his strongest Skills were proving to be of no use. Even if spammed as much as he could using Mana, his Mana was being simply drained by the Forbidden One, increasing its power.

The only thing that he discovered worked well was when he combined several Skills together and his Chaos Skills as well as his Lesser Dao of Demise. This powerful combination generated a sharp attack that could even pierce through this natural barrier that the Forbidden One possessed, making it budge and groan in pain.

Chaos had even tried the Nine Divine Dragons Technique a dozen of times, the enormous elemental dragons were of no use either, they exploded in constant elemental attacks, but the Forbidden One simply absorbed them into his body and grew stronger from it.

Chaos quickly adapted to the fight though, even if only a few seconds had passed since then. He began to merge the very basis of his other elements, but tried to manifest them through the power of Chaos and Demise alone.

CLAAASH!

A sword slash quickly reached him, piercing Chaos stomach and leaving a massive wound, while a strong kick threw him away once more.

BOOM!

The Forbidden One quickly moved over him and crushed him into the ground with his foot.

"You're a pathetic faker, you cannot even draw fifty percent of the power of my own body… Do you truly believe these fragments were made to be used by anyone but me? I am the only one capable of bringing one hundred percent of their power! If they won't obey me, then I will just devour you and assimilate them back to my body!" roared the Forbidden One.

"Why don't you eat this first?" asked Chaos.

"Huh?! Aghhh!" cried the Forbidden One, as Chaos suddenly surprised him, sparking electricity of red and black color began to cover his entire body, electrifying him!

This electricity wasn't pure thunder element, it was Chaotic Demise Thunder, Chaos own version of the element of thunder, but completely modified only to showcase its effects, but not the element itself, he was simply put, imitating other elements with Chaos and Demise!

CRAAASSSHH!

"Agghh…! Y-You bastard…! GRAAAAARRR!"

The Forbidden One was sturdy, and wouldn't easily budge to Chaos powers, he quickly tried to crush Chaos head, but failed miserably as Chaos detached himself from his own body and left the body that Forbidden One was dealing with as a decoy!

He merged into the shadows of the Forbidden One and emerged right behind him, while his decoy suddenly exploded into pure Chaos and Demise energies!

BOOOOOOMMM!!!

"W-What?!" cried the Forbidden One, surprised that Chaos suddenly decided to just kill himself, only to realize that his presence was never gone, emerging behind him amidst the black smoke and piercing his entire body several times by using the power of his blade coated in his Demise and Chaos Energies!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"Uuaaaaaaagggggh…! Y-You bastard…!"

The Forbidden One cried in agony, Chaos suddenly cut off his arms and legs, and kicked him away steahilty and incredibly fast.

"All-Devouring!"

TRUUUMM…!

Chaos suddenly expanded his body into a spiraling mass of darkness, devouring the pieces he cut off from the Forbidden One, and regaining some energy from all the energy the Forbidden One had been draining from him, although he wasn't able to get any fragment out of it…

The torso he cut off and threw away had already recovered new limbs, and was pissed off at Chaos attempt of winning! He thought that this pathetic faker's struggle was nothing but a nuisance.

"You're really an annoying bastard…! (This guy is learning my patterns way too quickly! At the beginning he seemed so weak, but now he's slowly adapting to me and even using the powers that work against me more proficiently… Just what kind of aberration is this being?! Ungh… If I could get some kind of powerup- Ah! That!)"

The Forbidden One quickly looked at Dura and Aruliel running away from the room, since they began moving only half a minute has passed, and the room was rather big, so the weakened and slow Dura took a while to move.

He quickly pointed out his claws at Aruliel, as a flash of darkness hit her, blowing away Dura from the Fallen Angel!

BOOOOMMM!!!

Chaos looked at what the Forbidden One had done as he gritted his teeth, quickly flying towards Aruliel and clashing against the dark bam with his Demise-covered blade, cutting off whatever the bastard was doing to the girl!

CLASH!

"Ahahaha! It is already done! Come back to me, fragments!" laughed the Forbidden One.

Suddenly, Aruliel stood up and glared at the Forbidden One with empty eyes, devoid of any light.

The darkness of her fragments suddenly began to take over her entire body, the areas that were not infected quickly became infected, as her wings turned completely black now, and both of her eyes' crimson red…

"…"

"Aruliel?" asked Chaos, trying to find any response from her.

"GRAAAAAAA!!!"

TRUUUMMM…!

Suddenly, Aruliel grew black claws over her hands, and black and purple horns began to grow all over her small body, resembling a monstrous spiked demon, the little horn in her forehead now grew upwards, spiraling over almost half a meter!

CLAAAASH!

And she clashed against Chaos!
