Maria and Eraldine clashed against Zero with everything they had. Combining their powers and even all of their weapons together through Divine Skills, they created a blazing blade containing Divine Flas, that could cut through any ice. The two swung their sword violently, unleashing blazing slashes against the rampaging Zero, putting their very hearts and souls into these attacks!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLAAAASH!
"GRAAAHHHH!!! YOUUUUU….!"
Zero began to struggle, although her powers had amplified trendously, her draconic might didn't fit her magic completely, and due to her ntality slowly eroding due to the dragon's powers, she couldn't conjure the powerful magic from before, and in exchange, she only had draconic abilities and imnse physical might.
While her opponents had the best of both worlds.
"RAAAAAHHHH!!!"
Zero opened her jaws, unleashing another Dragon Breath and freezing everything around her surroundings, causing a trendous and chaotic catastrophe!
BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!
For a mont, she smiled as she saw the frozen silhouette of Maria and Eraldine… Only for her face to quickly grow shocked as she realized the enormous blazing blade they held slashed through the ice and lted everything, filling their surroundings with hot steam and infernal flas spreading everywhere!
SLAAAAAASH!
"JUST DIE ALREADYYYYY…!"
Zero enchanted her body with all the Mana she had now, jumping straight towards Maria and Eraldine and pointing her two gigantic claws at them alongside her sharp, spear-tipped tail to end them both once and for all!
However, the fusion between two lovers calmly intercepted her powerful, yet sluggish and easily predictable blows with their sword, slashing apart her freezing dragon claws and ultimately, both of her arms!
SLAAASH! SLAAAASH!
"GRYYYYAAAAAGGGH….!"
Zero cried in agony as her two arms were sliced apart, suddenly opening her draconic jaws once more for another Dragon Breath!
"DIEEEEE!"
FLAAAAAAASH!
The massive beam of draconic power erupted from her jaws, completely engulfing Maria and Eraldine within its endlessly freezing prowess.
Yet…
"{Surtr's Wrathful Slash}!"
SLAAAAAAAASSSHHHH!!!
A massive titan made of flas surged from within the ice, Maria and Eraldine completely transford using Maria's Titan Skills. The titan of flas looked down at Zero, as her draconic eyes were filled with despair.
"A-Ahh… W-What… is… this?"
"{Ragnarök's End}"
The enormous blade began descending towards her, slashing her in half before she could even move, her entire body burned and turned slowly into ashes, while being slowly sliced apart into two perfect halves.
CLAAAAAAAASSSSHHHHHH…!
"This… can't… be…!"
Zero's consciousness began to fade away as her entire body was being burned away.
"I… through my entire life…"
mories of her life passed through her mind.
When she was a little girl lost in the woods. The hunger she felt after not having eaten in days. The bitter flavor of the bugs she ate desperately.
The anger and frustration she felt for being so weak, incapable of doing a single thing than fleeing from the village where her family lived as it was burned away by humans.
The pain and agony she underwent to train herself, fighting, hunting, training, killing… the countless tis she felt lost, and with nobody at her side.
Always alone.
The ecstasy she felt as she destroyed the Kingdom of the people that killed her family and destroyed her village, and then the hollow feeling she felt within her heart once she realized what she had done.
And the madness consuming her mind and her heart…
The eyes of that Hero that showed up at her doorsteps, and the hate he carried for revenge, so very similar to her own hate.
She realized that mont, that this world… it was simply an endless cycle of destruction, where all mortals were the puppets of the gods.
"Heh… Hahahah… Hah… This is… life…"
Zero laughed in her last monts, as tears flowed from her eyes, before her body turned into ashes and her soul was completely destroyed.
Maria and Eraldine quickly separated, and of course, Francesco ca out of the fusion too. All three of them were completely exhausted…
"Aaaggh, we finally did it…" Maria sighed.
"I wonder, can you turn her into a ghost or sothing?" Wondered Eraldine.
"Can't. Her soul dissipated away before I could take her, the power of that sword is the real deal…" Maria said.
"I see…" Eraldine sighed, looking at the remains left by Zero.
An accursed dragon-shaped necklace, several silver-colored scales, claws, a dragon tail, horns, and a small, yet beautiful, blue-colored Magic Crystal.
"Are you feeling alright?" Maria wondered. "I'm sorry, maybe you wanted her at our side?"
"Nah, it's fine." Eraldine said. "The mont I decided to fight at your side, I filled my heart with the resolve to kill others, no matter who they truly were, and no matter how much pity I felt. As long as they threatened innocents and tried to kill us, I simply… cannot be soft."
"Well, that soft-heartedness of yours is what makes you… Well, you." Maria said, giving Eraldine a head pat and then a kiss. "Never stop being yourself. It is fine if you feel sad, and it is fine if you pity even our enemies."
"Maria…" Eraldine felt filled with emotions. "W-Well, this is not the ti for being lovey-dovey anyways! We need to quickly go help everyone else!"
"Right! Let's go then!" Maria nodded. "Francesco, you did amazingly too! And- EH?!"
"Hahhaha… I-I beca a bit tiny." Francesco was now a small floating fla.
"FRANCESCO!" Maria panicked, quickly feeding him Mana and Phantasmal Essence. "Don't die on eee!"
"I-I am fine milady! I was just too tired, I used most of my body and soul for that transformation… I need to rest for a while to recover, I am sorry." He sighed.
"No, no, it's fine. Co to my Soul Scape and rest in there." Maria swiftly stuffed Francesco inside her Soul Scape so he could recover quickly by absorbing the surrounding phantasmal energies.
And as they made their way to aid everyone else…
