The demigod Dimenion mocks Nepheline's futile attempts to defeat him, highlighting his own adaptability and power. As Dimenion prepares to finish Nepheline, her daughter Aquarina sacrifices herself, merging with her mother and absorbing the attack into her rapidly changing, spectral form. This unexpected absorption saves them, leaving both Dimenion and Nepheline stunned by Aquarina's bizarre transformation.

-----

Aquarina was becoming strange, spectral, and phantasmal—semi-transparent, twisting and strangely merging with the space around her.

"?!"

For the first time, Dimenion was surprised. He stepped back as he felt a bizarre power awakening within Aquarina.

Then a black portal opened above him, formed from the fragments of Aquarina he had scattered everywhere when he defeated her.

His own attack, Soul Extinction, struck him instead.

"What?!"

Aquarina and Nepheline stood there in disbelief, watching everything unfold in utter shock.

"A-Aquarina, just what did you do?!"

"I... erm... I don’t know?"

Aquarina’s strange form quickly warped back to normal, leaving her with immense exhaustion. Whatever she had summoned clearly wasn’t easy to conjure again.

From what Nepheline had seen, Aquarina’s body had become a literal black hole. Anything that entered it was suddenly sent elsewhere. The portal that opened above Dimenion had simply released the attack her altered body had absorbed.

"That was amazing! I think we got him! He might be invulnerable to our attacks, but his own powerful attacks might have—"

"Oh, you got me?"

A voice echoed behind the mother and daughter. Dimenion emerged from behind them, covered in smoke. His glass-like body was greatly scratched and slightly darkened—he had indeed taken some damage from his own attack. Yet it was still nowhere near enough to shatter him.

"How amusing. It seems your body has mutated in unexpected ways," Dimenion mused. "Could it be because of the bizarre power that girl I tore apart gave you? The System, is it? Or whatever it is. I want that. My master wants it too. I will collect the pieces from your corpses and offer them to him..."

"W-What?!" Aquarina gasped. "Wait! Y-You said you were going to keep me alive!"

"Hah?"

Dimenion’s sharp claws grew four times longer, glowing with a nebula-like magic aura.

"W-Why tell me all of this?" Aquarina asked, shocked.

"Since you’re about to die, I decided to enlighten your foolish mind one last time. Feel honored, human trash," Dimenion laughed. "Now, farewell! Soul Extinction!!!"

He pointed his hands at the weakened mother and daughter, charging the attack once more—this time far stronger, twice, thrice, four times, five times, ten times as powerful.

Nepheline grabbed Aquarina and tried to run, but she wasn’t fast enough. She fell to the ground as a gigantic beam of white light threatened to engulf them both.

"Damn it!!!"

She screamed, hugging her daughter with all her might to shield her from the attack. The explosion of light consumed them in a devastating blast that seemed to shatter the dungeon in half.

Yet once again, there was only light and no lasting damage. Dimenion found this ridiculous. He looked around frantically and realized something had blocked his attack again.

It was almost as if Fate itself kept interfering, as if someone was manipulating reality to oppose him and ruin his plans at every turn.

But who? Who would be foolish enough to believe they had the power to challenge his almighty strength?

Then he saw it.

A strange object floated in front of his attack: a gigantic golden cauldron that absorbed the entire beam, all its potent energy, and synthesized it into raw power.

"What is that?!"

And then it happened.

A pillar of light and flames erupted from the ground. The entire Burning Forest Dungeon exploded and shattered, compressing together unnaturally.

"What is happening?! What is this?!" Dimenion screamed in disbelief, flying away from the compression as sudden fear gripped him. "Wait! Me, afraid?! What...! Who is interfering?! Wait—another god?! Impossible! None of them would ever care about humans!"

The entire dungeon continued compressing. Landscapes, mountains, forests, lakes—everything was crushed and disappeared, leaving only empty black space.

Lolth, who had been fighting the fusion of Beelzebub and Armageddon alongside the others, gasped as she witnessed the phenomenon. She tried to use her spatial manipulation powers, but they shattered instantly as a blinding light consumed them.

"W-What is this?! Aaahh! It burns! Who is this?! This power...! A throne?! Is this a seat?! A seat is daring to intervene! This goes against everything they have ever stated! Do they plan to destroy the entire continent with their presence?! The will of the planet will destroy them!"

Lolth escaped desperately, skittering away on her giant spider legs and abandoning everyone else as the endless compression spread. "It’s not affecting them?!" She soon realized this force was only harming her and Dimenion, leaving everyone else unscathed as the empty void expanded.

"W-what’s happening?!" Beelzebub unfused from Armageddon.

"I don’t know, but this presence is... it’s her?!" Armageddon gasped.

"It’s her...?" Yggdra muttered. "I-I can’t believe it! It’s really her?!"

"It’s her!!!" Ignatius roared, screaming in pain.

"Impossible... This power—!" Dimenion snarled, wings flaring as he tried to break free. But the golden cauldron spun faster, drinking in every ounce of his lingering attack and fueling the cataclysm.

From the heart of the blazing pillar, a figure began to emerge.
