Chapter 1184 Against Focalor!
-----
Focalor.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
A Demon prince with a near impenetrable cursed barrier.
His ability is to "Compress" things through an unknown power within a range of his body, easily capable of compressing Elayne, their strongest member, into a literal cube and leave her helpless.
Despite how powerful he is, he has a tremendous hunger for souls, and prioritizes eating souls than eliminating his foes.
He also has shown lazy and apathetic tendencies, incapable of caring about anybody, or anything, and without a clear mission either.
Then, Elayne took advantage of its aloof personality, and prepared an attack it could no longer overlook after baiting him into eating a lot of souls.
"Hm…?" as he yawned after being halfway through his snacks, his eyes widened.
The tremendous power coming from below slightly surprised him, but he knew his barrier could withstand even a blow from the Demon King.
"After all, papa always says that I have the strongest defenses, hehe~" he thought. "Now, where was I- huh?"
He suddenly noticed the three powerful attacks being prepared, yet still laughed.
"It won't change anything anyways…"
He was very wrong.
Camilla gathered the power into her blade, and unleashed it at once, creating her strongest technique, one capable of even one-shotting Bael's first form.
Her rapier moved upward, into the skies, as a gigantic amount of darkness, poison, curses, and blood coming from her own powerful aura erupted.
"{Divine Cursed Blood Rapier Arts}: {Crimson Spear of Death: Thanatos}"
Her rapier turned into a titanic spear of darkness and blood, Focalor smiled lightly and ignored it, looking down on mortals.
Yet…
The spear reached his barrier, striking it with such tremendous force that he was forced to vomit the soul he was eating.
BOOOMMM!!!
"Huh?!"
His seven eyes widened as he saw that the spear clearly pierced through the barrier, a small crack, a tiny hole no bigger than a nail.
Yet it did something!
"T-That's…!"
Yet he had no time to respond either, another attack came rushing immediately after that, Mark roared, all his spirits became one through his body and the titanic totem he fired.
The giant beak of the phoenix spirit totem pierced through the small hole left by Camilla, opening it even more up to almost three meters.
"Ahhh!"
In that moment, Focalor panicked before a huge explosion caused by the totem erupting caused the cracks to spread even more.
"W-Wait…!"
BOOOMMM!!!
Before he could compress the attack, the spear already exploded, the flames entered through the barrier, almost burning him if it wasn't because of his power was activated a second earlier.
"My barrier… it has a hole…?"
Yet was that enough for Planta?
Of course not…
She wasn't going to just leave a hole.
She was going to destroy that barrier!
"Don't look down on us, Demon!"
With a furious and draconic roar, she rushed into the skies, Focalor's eyes widened, seeing the massive spear coming towards his barrier, he quickly decided to act offensively.
The range was too thin, his Compression couldn't be used where she was! However, he smiled, he still had powerful magic anyways.
"Don't you dare look down on ME!" he cried like a child. "{Demonic Windstorm and Cursed Tsunami Arts}: {Catastrophic Wrath of Abyssal Winds and Seas}!"
A huge spiraling thunderstorm of seas and winds corrupted through demonic authorities rushed down towards Elayne.
Yet she didn't care.
Her spear pierced through everything.
CRAAASH!
The seas and the winds evaporated instantly as the radiant power of Tiamat emanated, explosions of rainbow colored draconic and spiritual energies erupted one after another.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
With each explosion, the spear's attack power became higher and stronger, rapidly piercing further and further through the barrage of attacks from Focalor.
"Dammit! What is that thing?! Compress! COMPRESS!"
He screamed as he pointed his hands at the spear, yet the spear…
Did not compress.
"Ah?!"
Any ability within the world always ran a special "check" based in the stats between Focalor and the spear, it would be given a level of damage.
Compress was done when the overwhelming magic power of Focalor overwhelmed another's magical defenses.
Yet this spear's stats were so high it simply was not affected, he had to hit it directly to deal any significant damage.
"D-Don't mess with me!"
With a scream filled with frustration, he tried to reinforce the barrier, but it was too late.
The spear pierced through the hole left behind by Mark, rapidly beginning to spin around, generating more and more of the explosions the spear could produce.
"W-Wait… WAIT A SECOND!"
Focalor screamed in horror as hundreds of explosions engulfed him from inside the barrier itself. the tool that served as his protection had now become his undoing, accumulating all the explosions within a small space.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Even as he tried using Compress to make all attacks compress to a minimal form and disappear, because they came from every angle possible, the attacks were going to eventually slip past that.
"Ugh…! Dammit! STOP THIS!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
His incredibly durable body was barely scratched, but every scratch dealt some damage, accumulating more and more until he began to bleed all over his nude chest.
Crack, crack…!
CRACK!
And at the same time, even as he still decided to not destroy his barrier, it was already being rapidly destroyed. Acorn, Nieve, Melisa, Anna, and Planta's Familiars all attacked, an endless rain of magical explosions engulfed his barrier.
Especially with Melisa's mighty curses, which began to seep into the barrier and mess with its internal structure, rapidly absorbing the curses and severely weakening the barrier.
CRACK, CRACK…!
CRAAASH!
"Ahhhh! M-My barrier!"
Focalor panicked as the barrier shattered into pieces, and Tiamat surged forward, still with a couple of seconds left to exist, it immediately impacted his body, beginning to drill through his skin, with all its power, attempting to leave at least a wound on his incredibly durable body.
CLAAASH!
"Nnngggh! Nnnggaaahhh!"
Focalor's strength could not exert enough power, as the spear continued piercing and generating explosions one after another.
Until eventually…
"UUUAAAAGGGGHHH!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM!
Through the small wound it created, countless explosions reached his internal body, his entire body inflating and exploding from the inside out, as smoke started coming out of his mouth, nose, and ears.
Ten seconds left before Tiamat disappears.
Elayne started a mental count.
"10…"
