“Celeste, ground him.” We ordered.

“Yes, Master!”

Celeste created a wind flow that tampered with Aberis’s wings. With her concentrating on making his time in the air miserable, he had no choice but to remain grounded.  

“Terra, Carmine, restrain his movements.”

“Yes.”

“I will!”

Terra began to crack the ground under him, causing the earth to become soft. He started to sink into the ground. He was able to keep fighting, but it was like he was fighting on sand. Carmine appeared on one side, and Terra on the other, creating shields not made to protect themselves, but to box him in.

“Salicia, Lydia… keep him in place. Bernice, lock his movements.”

Salicia lifted her hand, causing streams of darkness to rise and try to bind him. Meanwhile, Lydia went in close, tying up his movements. From a distance, Bernice sniped his hands, forcing him to divert some of the attention away from fighting Lydia’s rapid close movements. At this point, he was no longer able to move, being forced to confront Lydia. He let out an enraged noise.

Meanwhile, we accessed the stores, causing our blessings to glow as we changed things up. It was time to go all out. The sky darkened, and the pair of us attacked in a pincer style.

“Miki! Lock down his soul!”

“Yes!”

Even though he was in a dungeon, he was far too tricky, and only under Miki’s management could we ensure that he would die. Her body started to glow, and all nine glorious fox tails exploded out like a rainbow. When Aberis saw this, his eyes went wide for a moment, and for the first time since we had attacked him, he started to feel a bit of fear. He immediately went all out, trying to take down Miki. However, the attack was already launched.

“Final Blow!” both of us shouted.

Both of us launched one of our strongest attacks, both hitting consecutively. He let out a screech and exploded with power just as both attacks landed. The impact was so explosive that it knocked down everyone still standing on the battlefield. Even the remaining giants stumbled to their knees. Our entire party was tossed back. Miki flew back, but she was caught and righted by Celeste so she could continue to focus on restraining his soul.

The group of us slowly stood up. We were both extremely weak, so we healed each other, quickly recovering a lot of the strength we had sacrificed for that blow. Both attacks had landed successfully. That had to be a devastating attack. However, as the dust cleared and we surveyed the land, Demon Lord Aberis was still standing there. He was panting now, and his clothing was disordered, but that was the extent of it.

“Did you think things would end any other way?”

“Everyone! Lock him down!”

Everyone raced at him, repeating the same actions as before. This time, he looked upward and laughed.

“You think you can defeat me that way? You fool!”

The meteor my female half had summoned right before the attack was only about twenty seconds from hitting. If we could keep him at this point, it should be enough to wipe him out. It was our final plan to take him out. If Meteor couldn’t bring him down, then we didn’t know what could.

He threw his hands up, and a massive beam not dissimilar to what Salicia used, but many levels stronger, exploded out and up. It struck the meteor. There was resistance for a second, but then the meteor began to break away until it became nothing but ashes.
