The mad, gluttonous beast that was Christine, who ate her fellow cult members alive felt utter horror, her monstrous form constantly growing larger as her mass of flesh gained tentacles with heads and large muscular arms and legs.
Her gigantic body started making the floor beneath collapse, as she fell all the way down to the huge flower field right behind the castle of Silvershield.
BAAAAMMM...!
"W-What was that?! How did they get here so fast and out of nowhere?! IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!"
Christine had completely forgotten one of Blake's trump cards, a person he had only asked for minimal help until now... The Witch of Dreams and Nightmares, his mother-in-law, and Erika's mother.
"Nightmare Hound, Dream Devourer. Don't let her escape."
And she appeared right there, emerging from another Dream Portal that opened right above the Demonic Human. Cattalina, despite her high Rank, was not the fighting-type, her physical strength wasn't as high as her daughter to begin with, and she had a frail body.
However, what made her so powerful was her specialization with Dream Magic, and her strong Spirits, who could travel between Dreams, create pocket Dream Dimensions, and help her sneak behind her foes.
The reason why she hasn't taken care of this entire problem by herself was because despite all her abilities, they benefited from having strong allies she could easily protect, transport, and support with her abilities.
And now, Christine was finally learning what the Witch of Dreams and Nightmares was all about...
"Y-You! Cattalina!" Christine screamed, her monstrous tentacles were quickly stopped from reaching the strong yet frail sorceress as a gigantic Nightmare Hound and a Dream Devourer attacked her at once.
The hound resembling a massive, over thirty meters tall black wolf, made of cloud-like nightmare energy, with sharp red eyes. Meanwhile, the Dream Devourer resembled a twenty-meter big, pink-colored elephant, floating in midair.
"GROOOARR!"
"GRUOOHH!"
Both Spirit Beasts attacked Christine at once, using their enormous jaws and sharp fangs to tear apart her tentacles one after another, as sharp spears made of crystalized Nightmare and Dreams began to pierce her entire body.noVe.lb-In
"AAARRGGHH...! R-Rank 8 Spirits...?!" She groaned in agony. "Y-You fucking cheater! Why would one of the ten come all the way here?! Aren't you too busy?!"
Christine furiously shapeshifted her body, generating two enormous arms made out of several smaller arms and legs fused together, punching the two Spirit Beasts, and forcing them to step back temporarily, as her wounds swiftly recovered.
"I merely decided to accompany my daughter." Cattalina smiled. "I know that alone, I wouldn't had been able to stop all of you. Not even with all my Spirits. After all you demons are tricky, and even someone like me could perish against you if I were to go alone. Thankfully, my daughter found herself a very strong boyfriend~ And my son-in-law's friends are just as amazing!"
FLUOSH! FLUOSH! FLUOSH!
Suddenly, three Dream Portals emerged around Christine, her countless eyes panicking as she saw Blake's friends appearing from all sides once more! They weren't able to hit her at all after Elizabeth's initial strike, but now, they finally caught her off-guard!
"W-What?!" Christine only reaction could be a scream of surprise before dozens of Attacks were to rain over her like falling, devastating meteors.
Eric's Tempest Arrows and Yggdrasil's Cannon Beams, Erika's Dragon Blade Techniques, Elizabeth's devastating Holy Smite, Chris' almighty Infernal Fox Flames, Erdrich's all-destroying Heavenly Demon Arts, Elfriedden's Tenacious Frost, Alberta's Blazing Hammer, and her Titanic Golem.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
The Demonic Human's entire body was being covered in countless holes. Her defenses and barriers were being shattered in mere seconds. Her Demonic Energy, however, was flowing rapidly, her wounds regenerated, as she retaliated by swinging countless tentacle she created on the spot, attempting to bite her foes with her powerful jaws.
"BEGONEEEE!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
Her attacks only ended hitting barriers and shields, Elizabeth in specific conjured several Holy Barriers around her friends, helping them take the hits easily as her hammer descended over a hue eye in the middle of Christine's body!
"[Heavenly Spirit Smite]!"
CLAAAAASSSSH!
RUMBLE!
Christine once more felt utter agony, a piece of her soul was shattered in an instant the moment she felt that huge eye being splattered into pieces. Elizabeth's Holy Magic was the most dangerous, coming straight from her connection with the almighty Holy Spirit of Light!
Before, Holy Spirits barely did much to help this world after Hero Allen got rid of the Demons in the past, sealing them inside their Towers. An ear of peace ended weakening people, even more with the help that Spirits provided to them as the Age of Spirits began.
However, it was right in these years that the Demonic Cults were born, channeling the ancient and forbidden powers of Demons, it was them who ended freeing them from the Demon Towers, the pathetic servants of the Archdemons of old!
Nonetheless, the Holy Spirits have decided to change their approach, and were acting directly through their Divinely Blessed! Elizabeth and Erika, holding the Blessings of the Holy Spirit of Light and the Holy Spirit of Nature respectively, were only one of them.
And of course, Cattalina above the skies, held the Divine Blessing of the Holy Spirit of Dreams, making her Dream Magic the strongest in the entire continent.
"We won't let you to even regenerate back! [Yggdragon's Wrath]!"
Erika swung her giant sword downwards, piercing another large eye within the body of Christine, splattering it into pieces as her aura shapeshifted into a gigantic dragon made of green and golden light, engulfing half of Christine's entire body!
"ROOOARR!"
BOOOOOMMM!!!
Crack, crack...!
Christine's soul gained more and more cracks, as she was surrounded, constantly being attacked as she retaliated with a maddening scream! None of her Demons came to her rescue, not even the Demon Lords, as Blake, his Familiars, and his Vampire Spirits, were taking care of everything themselves.
"Y-YOUUUU...! YOU DAMN PESTS!"
With a frustrated scream of anger, Christine gathered all her powers within her body, growing a gigantic pair of jaws and opening them wide, attempting to devour her foes!
CRAAAAASSSSH!!!
