The Supreme Rank devil let out a deafening roar, its massive body trembling with fury.
The suppression from Zain's territory gnawed at its strength, forcing it to barely thirty percent of its true power.
But even that was enough to shake the ground beneath them.
With a snarl, its body swelled, muscles bulging as black-red ether burst from its skin like steam.
"You dare challenge me here?!" it bellowed, its voice like grinding stone.
It lunged forward, claws slicing through the air.
Velra was already moving.
She blurred sideways, her heels slamming into the devil's ribs in a spinning [Velvet Guillotine Kick].
The impact cracked the devil's bone and sent a shockwave rippling outward.
Zelia's blade flashed next, her form a calm blur as she stepped in.
[Sword Demon Sever], a single, precise cut.
She sliced along the devil's forearm, spraying corrosive blood across the dirt.
Savra raised a hand, crimson flames igniting in a circle beneath the devil's feet.
