"No, stop! You can't do… YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO MEEEE!"

The mad undead celestial screamed his lungs out, as he kept attempting to talk with his fellow Recessed telepathically, yet nothing worked! There was something, someone had conjured a special barrier, a domain or something blocking his transmissions from reaching them.

And yes, they indeed were. Right outside of the gigantic hall where he was conjuring the portal to hell to invite Mammon inside his domain, Redgaria, Shadrach, his children, Hodhyl, Faylen, and Charlotte were combining their powers together.

Each one of them worked as a node for the special formation to work. It was something Mammon and Kireina had created. It channeled each person's Cosmic Energy, Souls, and their Egos as "ingredients" for the nodes of the formation, combining them together into a thin veil of blue, black, and red cosmic light.

This was a Formation known as "Show Don't Tell" as their creators called it. It simply cut off any ability to communicate with the outside world, and it could even accelerate the time inside the Formation by up to ten times, helping the killers slay the Recessed in a whiff!

Even if they took hours, the other Recessed wouldn't notice because barely a few minutes have passed since Erdretoth ever called them, a perfect crime.

"YOUUU!"

Erdretoth, even as he fell into pieces, kept fighting relentlessly, his Aura gathered into his chest and then released an explosion of golden and black light everywhere, pushing everyone but Kireina away!

RUMBLE!

"I'll fucking kill you! No matter WHAT! That'll be the last thing I might ever do, but I'll take you down with ME!"

The Recessed rushed towards Kireina, his entire body mutating into a monstrous centipede made of golden bones and black miasmic tendrils supporting everything. He harnessed all his powers into six giant claws, rushing towards Kireina and thrusting forwards with them.

Kireina blocked the hits with her shield as they came, while tanking a few with her body, her armor bending down but not breaking as she took the hits. She gritted her teeth as she rapidly swung down her huge black hammer, an explosion of chaotic energies erupting as they hit one of the Recessed's arms.

CRASH!

The arm exploded into pieces, corroding the wounds with deadly chaos. Erdretoth roared furiously, attacking faster and faster, his body opening countless golden eyes as they fired beams of light against her.

Kireina's body took them head-on anyways, her health points only going down slowly. She swung Mammon against him, the axe of enormous size, weight, and sharpness easily hacked through three arms at once, before Kireina's Cosmic Aura, combined with all her Authority Skills and Divine Authorities, captured them and devoured them before her foe could reattach them back.

CLASH!

"DAMMIT!"

Erdretoth was slowly beginning to realize that even his best efforts would work. Kireina was incredibly strong for no reason! He simply couldn't detect any Star Essence from her, the refined form of World Essence that could also be considered Cosmic Power. A special energy that those at the Star Eater Realm could obtain.

Despite him using this energy constantly until it was about to be emptied, Kireina was simply using a ridiculously high amount of Essence! Perhaps a thousand times more than those around her Realm, and a hundred times more than those within Erdretoth's Realm.

"Are you finally realizing your doom, Erdretoth? For ever daring to see my beautiful husband like that, I'm going to fucking enjoy tearing you to shreds!"

Kireina smiled wickedly as her Aura expanded everywhere, capturing Erdretoth within a small Domain, the desperate Recessed kept fighting as much as he could.

Explosions of golden sunlight, nether miasmic beams, claw attacks, bites, curses, anything! Each blow they exchanged only generated more and more explosions, yet Kireina remained unscathed, supreme.

Was there any chance from the very beginning?

Maybe if he had his equipment with him, he would have had a decent chance, they possessed incredible powers.

Yet now, he was unable to access them!

"RAAAAHHH!!!"

With a monstrous howl, Erdretoth transformed the upper half of his body into a giant, golden spear, shining with cosmic flames of nether and holy sunlight, and quickly rushed towards Kireina, hitting her shield and leaving cracks on it before it was pushed back, the spear rushing towards her head!

Kireina quickly felt the danger, immediately using her techniques as she fused her Azure Orichalcum into her legs and fired one of them as a sharp projectile, striking Erdretoth's chest and blowing him away with an explosion.

BOOOM!

"Ugh! W-What?!"

Erdretoth was still trying to process what happened before he saw Kireina's hammer smash his head into pieces, followed by Mammon's giant axe hacking through his entire skeletal body, grinding it to bits!

CRASH!

"S-Stop! PLEASE STOP!"

CRASH!

"NO MORE…!"

CRAAASH!

"I DON'T WANT TO DIE AGAIN…!"

Kireina had thought she had become more compassionate, but this feeling of absolutely crushing a stronger foe was beautiful, it made her smile, it made her laugh, it made her euphoric!

"Yes, scream some more!" She laughed. "Show me your suffering, you piece of shit!"

She quickly crushed his soul into pieces with her heels, the agonizing screams of Erdretoth could not be heard by anybody.

Before Erdretoth could attempt anything else, Kireina's Aura quickly swallowed him whole, as she immediately started to digest him.

"Mammon-sama…"

His last words were full of grief and frustration that his perverted fantasies could never come to reality. His entire being was consumed, fading away and only becoming information through his memories for Kireina to assess as she absorbed his powers and made them hers.

"He's gone." She sighed, looking as nothing but tiny gold bone bits were left behind. "Phew, this bastard was sure a tough nut to crack."

"He was indeed." Mammon nodded, turning back from his axe form. "Hah~ Well, that was it with this man. I am relieved he's dead, he was really making me feel disgusted, something really rare to accomplish for an Archdemon such as myself."

"Don't worry dear, I would never let a pervert bastard like him ever touch you." Kireina smiled, as she kissed his soft lips. "Though, what with the little act you did at the beginning? "You can pound my asshole all you want"? Hahaha! What was that?"

"T-That's…!" Mammon blushed quite a lot. "Idiot! Focus, we need to get to the star, quickly!"

"Ah, yes, yes~" Kireina smiled, her domain quickly disappearing as she saw Faylen healing everyone with the powers she acquired from her contract with Yggdrantia. "Is everyone alright?"

"Yeah, that bastard was tough as fuck though." Luminous sighed.

"He's gone, right?" Gaby asked.

"More than gone." Kireina nodded.

"Excellent." Altani said. "Now, what's next?"

"We move with the second half of our plan." Mammon said. "Kireina, do you think you can do it?"

"Leave this to me." Kireina said.

Her entire body began to quickly shapeshift, becoming an exact replica of Erdretoth.

Devouring people and then taking their form, this was a good old strategy of hers, which she hadn't used in a long while.

But now that she had his powers, appearance, and even memories, what set her apart from him anyways?

It was time for the second half of the plan Mammon had devised.

Using her connection with the dark castle, the enormous building began to move.
