Gacha Sovereign-Chapter 1187: Resolves

Boom.

The explosion created a fan-shaped area leaning to one side because half of it was blocked by the sword. And the flame in the sword was blasted away by that powerful explosion.

"Kh…" The Demon God gritted his teeth as when the smoke was cleared, Rubia could see the effect of her attack.

"Hahaha, do you like it?" Rubia laughed. This was what Alex's Unknown Elemental Orb gave to her. Due to her curiosity of how a Fire Disturbance could be compressed to the point it started materializing into solid form, she managed to replicate such a thing.

Of course, her strength was far too low to even condense a Fire Disturbance and settled with a smaller one. The effect was as she saw earlier.

"This is indeed good. I feel like I can become even stronger if I understand this concept more. Unfortunately, I can only replicate the power to this extent due to the time limit. But I think it's enough to fight you. As expected, Magical Girls are the strongest." Rubia chuckled and looked at the Demon God whose half body had a burn mark due to the earlier attack.

Before the Demon God could do anything, she waved her staff and summoned a few more elements. They were all her five elements, Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Lightning.

She smirked and turned them into marbles as if Energy could gain a solid form. Those five balls circled around her as she pointed her staff toward the Demon God. "Now, let's fight again. I am not afraid of you. Justice will always win."

"What justice? There is no right or wrong in this world. If you don't know it's a lie, then it's the truth. If you don't know we're bad, we're the same as you guys, good people." The Demon God snorted before releasing his power even more to restart everything.

The Demon God covered his sword with fire and charged forward. "Hah!"

Before reaching Rubia, he purposely punched forward, releasing the same fire tornado to distract her.

Rubia's response was simply throwing the first crystal. She thought, 'I can only use this once because I haven't mastered this technique yet. Hence, I need to find a way to defeat him by using all five crystals for now…'

The crystal then exploded as water splashed and covered the entire flame.

The Demon God narrowed his eyes and looked left and right to see if he needed to find another way to reach her, but he didn't feel any more presence. Hence, he cut the residual water with his sword, blowing them away to the side with the shock wave the swing made.

Unfortunately for him, Rubia used the water to cover her action. She grabbed the Earth Crystal and threw it toward him.

When the water just split into two, the Demon God found a green crystal on his way.

"!!!" He was surprised because the small crystal turned into an asteroid right after.

Wanting to march forward, the Demon God slashed the rock to the best of his ability.

Clink.

There was a bit of restriction when the two clashed, but cracks began to appear before the middle of the rock crumbled.

The Demon God smiled and decided to continue because he felt he could handle this. And since Rubia thought he would keep going to charge at the crystals head-on, he decided to dodge next time.

Unfortunately for him, everything was within Rubia's calculation.

She smirked and grabbed the Lightning and Fire concentrated magic bombs. The Demon God flinched as he thought this would attack him again, so he wanted to gain enough distance to dodge it.

And it seemed he had called it right because he saw Rubia throwing both of them at him. Yet, she seemed to trick him because the two crystals didn't explode and continued on their path.

At the same time, she grabbed the last crystal she had and threw it the last.

Surprisingly, this one exploded and created a torrential wind stream that carried the two crystals forward.

"What?!" The Demon God widened his eyes and gritted his teeth before raising his sword. Because of the shock, he didn't have enough time to use a big move, so he ended up with a normal Ghost Fire Sword. Before he struck the combined fire and lightning energy, he raised his hand and absorbed a portion of them. "Heavenly Absorbing Demon Art."

Unfortunately for him, this was concentrated energy that made it hard to absorb. The rate was too slow to keep up, so the Demon God made a decision to take it head-on.

He slashed the sword, which was covered in Ghost Fire, downwards to knock it down instead of destroying it.

The Magic Goddess showed another trick and turned the wind energy that carried both energies upward to redirect their target, making it impossible for the Demon God to dodge or deflect it.

"Sh*t!" The Demon God gritted his teeth and completed his sword.

The Sword and Energy clashed. The asteroids around them got blown away while the planets went off their orbit. However, it was easy to see the losing side.

"I win." Rubia smirked when the Demon God started getting pushed back by her attack before it blew him away until he crashed to a planet.

Boom.

"This is it." Rubia widened her eyes and raised her staff, not planning to stop. Three Magic Circles appeared in succession.

She summoned her five elements before each of them released all their energy toward the first Magic Circles.

The First Magic Circles absorbed all their energy before amplifying them to a certain extent before hitting the second Magic Circle. The second magic circle compressed their power into five small crystals like her usual Magic Bomb.

Yet, there was still the third Magic Circle. The moment five crystals touched it, their crystals melted and burst out all the energy inside as she used the third magic circle to gain enough control to force all the energy struck forth.

"Five Element Union. Cosmic Blast."

A powerful beam carrying all five energies flew straight toward the Demon God who was stuck on the planet. He panicked and released all the power he had, including the one thousand ghosts, coating his sword.

He slashed downwards, planning to strike it down.

"Asure Ghost Blade."

The powerful beam finally made contact with the Asura Blade and created a powerful shock wave that pushed the planet away. However, beneath the Demon God, the ground turned into a massive crater that made one have a hard time seeing the surface again.

The hole became even bigger and deeper.

"Ha!" Rubia kept maintaining this output. Despite having more than half of her energy, the output was too intense for her body to handle.

Blood came out the pores, her eyes, and even her mouth. She spat a mouthful of blood but maintained this for a little longer. There was a chance that the Demon God managed to withstand this, so she wanted to use all her remaining power to make sure he died in this one particular chance.

"Die!" Rubia spat another mouthful of blood as her energy destabilized for a split second. That was the kind of hardship she needed to endure.

Her vision gradually became blurry and her eyes lost their light. Rubia simply lost all of her energy to use this attack and she didn't mind even if she ended up falling unconscious to the lack of energy or something later.

And it might be her luck or determination, but she heard a loud rumbling sound that she thought was the end of it. If there were someone in this place witnessing her power, they would be shocked because the loud noise she heard earlier was nothing but the destroyed planet.

Yes. That powerful beam created a hole in a Lower World, making one able to see the things behind the planet straight through it.

For the first time in her life and probably her biggest achievement, she managed to pierce through a Lower World even though it used all her energy to the point she almost fell unconscious.

"I'm tired… I can't really fight more." Rubia gritted her teeth and fell on her knees, wanting to fall asleep just like this. However, she soon felt a weak presence as a shadow blurred her vision even more.

The shadow kept panting as a portion of his blood smeared her clothes. "I… I… I… am still not done."

If she could raise her head, she would see the current state of the Demon God. His entire right arm and foot had disappeared as a fifth of his body were nowhere to be seen, including his right ears. However, he was lucky enough to survive. The split second the energy wave destabilized, he used this opportunity to get away as soon as possible.

Yet, that person could still stand, holding his sword. "Demon… has… more… powerful… body."

"Ha…ha…" Rubia chuckled with a tired expression. All she could see was the shadow of the Demon God as she didn't have any more energy to even move her finger. "It seems I've lost…"

Regret was shown on her face, knowing that she had no other chance to win against him other than this one last resort.

This was also the reason why she actually came to talk with Alex alone and asked him to take care of her and her vassals. Despite her playful actions, she always thought about the worst case scenario. And compared to people like the God of Destruction or the God of Wrath, she was clearly the worst.

Needing to fight against one of the Bats, she knew there was a high chance of her not being able to win. Hence, she wanted Alex to take care of her people even if she died.

Although she hadn't accepted the confirmation, this sacrifice would surely give his assurance. Even in the face of death, she kept thinking about her worlds and people like a madman.

"Huft… It's hard to keep up being a magical girl." She weakly muttered as she activated something next to her with the little energy remaining.

"What are you doi—" Before he finished, the Demon God glanced over to her waist before another five compressed balls appeared. "!!!"

They were none other than her compressed Spiritual Energy infused by each individual element she commanded. It turned out she knew her weakness well and still wanted to fulfill her job no matter the cost.

Either way, she would end up dying, so dragging her opponent down like this might be a fitting end for her.

"You—"

Rubia smirked and raised her head, staring at the 'empty' face before her because her eyes couldn't focus anymore, making it hard to see someone, especially when she was surrounded by darkness.

She smiled and said weakly, "Let's die together."

Boom.
