Chapter 322 - Overwhelmingly Strong

-----

Belphegor, Erebus, and Lilith had moved to look for Chaos when he just moved outside of the temple chasing down the Forbidden One's Ego, while Yuki, Boxxy, Edward, and Rot ended staying with Abyss.

Although they were being shocked by what was happening, and how Abyss ended being defeated and trapped inside two Spatial Cubes in mere seconds, they couldn't really overthink things through, the four recklessly rushed forward to confront the two Gods responsible for Abyss easily being defeated, Brutus and Ernesticia.

Yuki and Boxxy were the first to reach them, the two combined their attacks and easily made Ernesticia who was bad at close-range combat nor was she fast to step back, but Brutus alone dealt with the two rather well.

Meanwhile Edward and Rot reached Ernesticia, desperately trying to catch her and fight against her, but the young girl-looking Banshee was very sneaky, using her spatial magic to warp herself around and evade their magic attacks!

Edward's Spirit Magic was powerful at the stage he was, summoning the elemental spirits of the environment he was, he summoned many Undine, the elemental spirits of water, and used them to create enormous vortexes of spiraling water against Ernesticia!

However, Ernesticia easily dealt with them while leisurely drinking an Elixir that began to restore her Mana, as she waved her staff carelessly and a black hole suddenly showed up in front of her, a void spell named "Void Suction"!

TRUUUMM…!

All the attacks that Edward was flashily throwing at her were being vacuumed by the void she had conjured with ease! The only thing he could do was see as all his attacks were turned… completely useless!

"Such a meaningless attack, such a basic elemental blow. You think some flashy boom and boom is enough to just deal with all your problems? Your usage of magic is pitiful. If I were a spirit magician I would be like a hundred times stronger than I am right now… You're clearly wasting your own potential." Said Ernesticia, greatly offending Edward, as the elf gritted his teeth in anger.

"W-Wasting my potential?! What are you talking about? I've studied magic for many years…!" roared Edward, evading the vacuum of the void and attempting to attack Ernesticia again.

However, the void quickly circled around, as if rotating around her, something that Edward had never seen before, and all his elemental blows were absorbed.

"Yawn… Is this all you got?" she asked.

"ROOOOARRRR!"

Suddenly, a massive black dragon shrouded in pure death emerged before Ernesticia! It was Rot's dragon form, she was fiercely roaring back at Ernesticia as she opened her jaws and unleashed an explosive wave of phantasmal flames!

BOOOOOMMM!!!

The vacuum quickly stopped it, but Rot quickly used her magic, unleashing several death cannons that circled around the vacuum while it was concentrating itself into absorbing her enormous breath attack, reaching up to Ernesticia!

"Oh? Commendable." Said the banshee, as she was directly impacted with several blows of pure death magic, the enormous beams clashed over her, exploding into large clouds of black smoke!

BOOOOMMM!!!

…

However, she suddenly showed to be completely unscathed, as the dim silhouette of a transparent cube protecting her suddenly emerged amidst the black smoke! She had actually trapped herself inside a Spatial Cube and was completely unscathed by Rot's attacks!

"What…?! (Her magic is incredible…! If I were to compare her to Abyss… Lady Abyss would only be an amateur at the usage of space magic…! This woman's power over magic is incredible, how old is she?! She looks so young yet… I can see such an ancient wisdom within her eyes!)" muttered Edward, as he began to wonder what sort of old monster this Banshee woman was!

"Then I am going more into he offensive if that's all you got to offer." Said Ernesticia.

TRUUUMMM…!

The enormous void she had around her suddenly grew in size, beginning to vacuum everything!

Edward and Rot knew that if they were to get sucked by it, they would easily die!

"Uaagh…!"

Rot was too big and heavy in her dragon form and was the first one to fall!

"ROT!!!"

Edward cried as he desperately tried to hold her with his magic, but the magic was easily vacuumed, and Rot was sucked up by the void, but only half of her body, as she was so big, she got stuck around the ring of the void!

"Huh? You're quite the fatty one…" said Ernesticia.

"Aghhh!"

Rot began to cry in agony as her lower half began to be disintegrated completely, alongside a part of her soul as well! She gritted her teeth as she glared down at Ernesticia in utter anger, a black miasma began to form from within her body like a slow-moving black smoke, quickly infecting the void trapping her and then disintegrating it!

CRAAASH!

As if it were shattered into countless pieces, the void conjured by Ernesticia was destroyed!

"Oh? That's a Unique power…" said Ernesticia in surprise.

"Uuggh…"

Rot groaned as she went back to her normal form, down to her stomach was completely gone, and black blood was leaking out of her body, as her guts were hanging down…

"R-Rot!" cried Edward, rushing towards Rot who seemed very weakened if it wasn't because she was an Undead, she would be dead.

"Unngh… It hurts… Chaos… Chaos-sama…" cried Rot, calling for Chaos.

Ernesticia looked down at Edward and Rot from above them, as she pointed her staff at them.

"This will finish you two." She said mercilessly, as if looking at two ants.

Meanwhile, almost a kilometer away if not more, Belphegor, Erebus, and Lilith finally caught up to Chaos, as they found him surging from the water and looking around for clues to where the Forbidden One's Ego had gone to!

"Chaos-sama! Please, come with us! Help us!" cried Belphegor.

"Ah…!"

Chaos, who was dead set in finding the Forbidden One's Ego had suddenly been brought back to reality, his eyes opened wide as he realized he had bene outside this entire time.
