CRUUUUNCH!
In front of the Necrotic Death Lord, half of his legion of endless undead disappeared in a split second, his empty eyes filled with shock!
Amongst the things he knew about Kireina from Elfina's memories which Hel had extracted, she had yet to awaken her Devouring powers which made her such a frightening being in Genesis.
It should had remained that way!
Yet…
"What?! But… this is impossible!" As he muttered these pointless words, Kireina started to laugh.
"Yes! I do realize our difference in strength now, little skelly." Kireina laughed. "This is why I'll have to wrap things up quickly for now. Thankfully, this world has offered me a variety of ways to improve myself, those include… leveling my own path jewels."

-----
After her Monarch of Gluttony reached Level 4, it gained a new Ability which complemented with all other abilities, an ability that Kireina had actually not seen in this Path Jewel before, something completely brand new.
Her Aura of Chaos and Cosmos materialized, as a massive and grotesque snake emerged around her, with countless eyes and small tentacles around its body, it was constantly devouring its own tail, wrapping around Kireina…
"[Uroboros Embodiment]"
"SHAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
Uroboros roared furiously, as it suddenly stopped biting its tail, opening its gigantic maws as the endless Legion tried to regenerate, only to be devoured once more!
CRUUNCH! CRUUNCH! CRUUUUNCH!
"T-This power…! Ah! Why am I trembling?!" The Necrotic Death Lord realized. "Is this… such an absolute power to devour everything… the thing we feared the most about her…! Even my ancient, unshakable soul is trembling in fear?!"
The skeleton himself could not believe his own body and soul as they stared to tremble in utter fear! If he could sweat, he would be sweating bullets right now!
Kireina, albeit looking younger than her Genesis appearance, smiled with the same, predatory smile as before. The journey in this world might had seemed as if it had turned her softer… but the all-devouring empress that made even beings above her feel fear was here and had never gone anywhere!
"You pathetic little piece of shit. Do you dare go against the Supreme Goddess of Primordial Chaos and Eternal Demise and expect me to go easy on you?!" Kireina said with an angered face, her eyes opening furiously as they shone bright red! "I'm gonna eat you, and all of your damn world!"
Her words were not a joke, they were true! Even more fear reached the skeleton, as he couldn't even move! He quickly attempted to attack back, but could only see as his entire swarm of undead, which he had carefully raised over thousands of years began disappearing.
CRUNCH! CRUNCH! CRAAAASH!
"Y-YOUUUU! As if I were to fear a damn worm!!!" Roared the Necrotic Death Lord, as he quickly called back his longsword and clashed against Kireina!
CLAAAAAASH!
Kireina's eyes quickly noticed he had grown suddenly weaker. She was right, devouring that legion was actually a way to weaken him. Necrotic Death Lords relied on something similar to a Divine Realm inside of their souls to grow stronger, such a realm was composed of the many souls they ate.
Which means that… as she ate them, she gained part of his powers while he lost his! It was something completely insane to think about, as nobody within the realm he originated could do something so easy as to devour another's powers.
"Oh, you better fear it." Kireina laughed. "[Divine Embodiment: Cosmos & Chaos]!"
FLAAAAAASHHH!!!
Kireina's entire body suddenly changed its elemental composition, turning completely into pure chaos and cosmic energy. Taking the form of Uroboros himself, she opened her gigantic snake-like jaws and bite through the Necrotic Death Lord's powerful Aura!
CLAAAASH!
"Nnnnggghhh…!" The Necrotic Death Lord struggled but fought back, millions of souls converged into his slashing attacks as they appeared like countless ghosts attempting to trap Kireina within a net of souls. "I will seal your demonic soul! [Unshakable Myriad Soul Sealing Chains]!"
FLAAAASH!
The chains wrapped around Kireina, trying to hold her still! It seemed they began to drain away her very life, mana, and even her soul, weakening her severely! She seemed to struggle as the Necrotic Death Lord finally thought he had her!
"Hah… Hahahaha!"
"Eh?"
However, she laughed.
"Rubbish."
TRUUUUUMMMM…!
The chains suddenly began disappearing into pieces, as an endless mass of invisible jaws began to devour everything around her. Kireina's Mana and Health regenerated instantly as she absorbed it from Mana from the chains she ate and even the Skeleton in front of her! And her HP? Well, it regenerated easily as she used her own Mana to heal herself.
"This can't be possible…!" The Necrotic Death Lord cried. "Lady Hel said you had lost most of your powers!"
"From where did that bitch got that info? Elfina? Well, since she went missing I've grown like a hundred times stronger." I sighed. "Honestly…"
"Silence!!"
The monstrous Necrotic Death Lord roared in utter fury, incapable of resisting Kireina's insolence anymore as his entire body began overflowing with Necrotic Essence, his longsword unleashing a powerful aura made of millions of despairing and agonizing souls!
"I'll end you!"
"Do your worst."
