The power of the skeleton was incredible. It was as if he had gone all out. Releasing all of this power over us, Leviathan, who had put up such a good fight so far, ended being reduced into a defensive stance as he shaped into a dome of water and protected us from being devoured by this all-consuming darkness.

Based on how his soul was weakening and slowly dissipating, this power had a similar nature to Death Beam, meaning that could it turn us into ashes if it were to touch us… such a dangerous power.

So, this is the true power of a monster that our parents had to fight, huh. The KinLord of Death, Hell… he was probably strong enough to survive several encounters and escape at the end, hiding until he finally had the chance of picking us out somehow. Well, I guess that's true, seeing how he's attempting to kill us.

At this point, I noticed that Leviathan was slowly dissipating. His soul was turning into literal ashes, while the blue jewels were also fading away. Aquarina seemed to be in a trance as the magic of Leviathan was taking over her body, but I think she had fallen unconscious… in fact, it's taking all my concentration for me to not fall unconscious as well. Right now, my body is too damaged.

My entire body is probably confused at this moment. After all, I don't have supernatural regeneration abilities. With that, even if my HP doesn't go out, it doesn't mean I can recover even if I'm torn apart. I just stay like this while my soul doesn't leave whatever is left from my body. It seems more like a curse from a certain perspective.

Of course, I've tried several times to use magic myself, but I cannot. My soul is weakened and cracked, as if it was like glass. The pressure of all the mana I used almost shattered my soul into pieces, to the point it has severely weakened my Magic Circle as well… if I do anything rash, my soul will be destroyed by my own mana, which is like a constant pressure that keeps growing with every passing second. Sigh… my soul is not strong enough to withstand infinite power after all.

Even doing little things using mana makes it shatter a bit more… I'm basically on my last leg.

My parents… where are they?

Mom…

Dad…

Why are you… not here?

Where are you when I needed you the most?

I wish…

I wish I could do more…

Despite everything I've done, I'm still weak compared to these absolute monsters…

While thinking this, I noticed that Leviathan was left on his last blue jewel. Unfortunately, that one was also dissipating into ashes as the darkness was barely beginning to recede.

"Aquarina… this is… my farewell… I… I apologize for not being able to protect you anymore…" he muttered.

Why? Why did a demon like him decide to help us out so much? I… I wish that stupid Ignatius could be half as decent as Leviathan.

You… know what?

I don't care anymore. I'll just shatter my soul into pieces.

If it means I can give Aquarina a chance to survive… then I'll gladly die.

I could never let my little beloved sister die in front of me.

"Leviathan… take this," I muttered.

"Eh?!"

After saying that, I quickly began to infuse all my mana into Leviathan through the power of Mana Usage. Soon, a stream of transparent energy, mana, fueled Leviathan's entire body as the blue stone that was left of "him" stopped breaking apart. Simultaneously, his entire soul fragment felt renewed.

Huh. To think my mana can do such a thing.

FLAAAASH!

With my aid, the darkness suddenly receded as Leviathan felt this new power surging throughout his entire being.

"RROOOAARRR!"

He suddenly jumped over Hell, who fell to the floor.

"Y-You're still here even after all that?!" he asked dumbfounded. He perhaps thought that with that ultimate attack he did, he would get us for real now.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"You… You're fueling me with mana!" said Leviathan.

Crack… crack!

Unsurprisingly, my soul continued to shatter. Right now, I felt like my entire being was beginning to disappear slowly, bit by bit.

"Use it…"

Leviathan somehow knew what was happening to me and said no more, rushing towards Hell and pummeling him into the ground with dozens of vortexes of high-pressured water.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"GRUUUAGGGH…!"

His entire body began to be torn apart… Leviathan was doing it!

The might of the oceans resonated around his very soul as the entire place shaped into his domain of oceanic water. It felt like the rage of the ocean waves was materialized into his roar.

"RROOOOAARRR!"

"Y-You damn…! Lizard…!" Hell muttered, his entire body beginning to be destroyed into pieces.

BOOOOMMM!!!

Soon, his skeleton body was torn apart and shattered as Leviathan's water dissipated into mana particles. Seeing that, I quickly stopped giving him mana right before my soul was going to turn into bits and pieces.

With that, a small form of Leviathan was left floating in midair. He seemed exhausted. His entire power was reduced to his current form.

"Ungh… is he…?" he wondered, looking down at the darkness that slowly dissipated.

However, the darkness suddenly began to spread further.

"Ah!"

FLAAAAASH!

"To think I would need to use the fragment of my lord, the Demon King, to defeat a piece of trash such as you!"

Suddenly, a gigantic ghost-like specter emerged from the pile of bones left by Hell. In less than an instant, a massive and monstrous being made out of phantasmal darkness and shadows appeared. At the center of his body was a massive blue flame resonating with some unknown, demonic power, fueling his entire being into an evolution.

This is… a Demon King's fragment, the same fragment that Beelzebub once used against my parents.

"T-This can't be…!" Leviathan muttered with a tinge of despair.

CLASH!

A massive phantasmal claw grabbed him as I felt despair the same way he did.

It was all over now. The enormous pressure that Hell released from his very being… it was completely different than before.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Only despair began to take over my heart. At this moment, I began to only think about how I was going to die no matter what.

"Nnggh...! A-Aquarina...!"

BOOOM!!!

Soon, in front of me, Leviathan was destroyed. The last fragment he had was annihilated, and nothing… was left.

"You two are next…"
