Disturbed pleasure

Zix drew his bowstring once more, conjuring a colossal arrow made of spiritual energy imbued with a potent solvent poison. Without hesitation, he released the bowstring, launching the arrow in a high-speed rotational motion.

In a fraction of a second, the arrow clashed with Emilia's scorching red magma dragon, resulting in a powerful shockwave that shook the clouds above and caused tidal waves below. Initially, Emilia's attack seemed to dominate. However, thanks to the high-speed rotating spiritual arrow laced with powerful solvent poison, both attacks balanced each other in terms of momentum and strength.

Moments later, both attacks dissipated simultaneously, unleashing one final shockwave as a parting blow.

Exhaling deeply, Zix grumbled with mild frustration. "Even an imperfect attack wields such destructive power. As expected of an admiral."

Zix drew his bowstring once more, creating dozens of spiritual energy arrows. This time, he shot them into the sky, utilizing a parabolic trajectory to strike Emilia and Eleonora from above. Upon reaching a certain altitude, the arrows multiplied exponentially, reaching into the hundreds.

To immobilize Emilia and Eleonora, Draco swiftly conjured a spiritual barrier infused with destructive energy, preventing them from escaping using their elemental bodies.

"Now they can't move freely," Draco muttered with satisfaction, watching as his brother's hundreds of spiritual arrows passed through the barrier he crafted without any hindrance. Draco's ability to meticulously select what could penetrate his barrier was the key.

Taking the initiative, Emilia pointed the tip of her mace skyward, aiming at the impending rain of spiritual arrows poised to strike her with lethal force.

"Magma Shot!" she intoned, launching a high-speed magma projectile shaped like the tip of her mace towards the first spiritual arrow on a collision course.

The arrow shattered and melted upon contact with the magma projectile.

Emilia fired dozens more magma projectiles, targeting each arrow in her path. She deflected some arrows directly with her mace, enveloped in thick, hot magma, and maneuvered deftly within the barrier to gain the right momentum and timing for her swings.

Eleonora, on the other hand, deftly dodged each arrow, utilizing her light elemental body to transform into a cluster of photons, accelerating freely through the air at the speed of light.

However, the unexpected occurred in the next moment. As if possessing a will of their own, the spiritual arrows Eleonora avoided began maneuvering unnaturally like homing missiles, pursuing her wherever she fled.

"Tch—such a nuisance," Eleonora clicked her tongue in annoyance. 'To neutralize them, every physical and metaphysical structure of these spiritual arrows must be directly destroyed,' she thought, having quickly analyzed the nature of Zix's spiritual arrows.

With decisive movements, Eleonora spread her palms to the sides, invoking her technique with a melodious voice, "Divine Light Prism of Judgement."

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of medium-sized prisms of golden light appeared within the barrier, scattered in a seemingly random and chaotic manner. Among them, one divine prism shone far brighter than the rest, unleashing a laser of light infused with the colors of the rainbow.

Instantly, each reflective side of the light prisms adjusted in parallel, redirecting the path of the divine laser beam imbued with punitive power to vaporize every spiritual arrow targeting it with precise and extraordinary speed.

A trail of sacred, multicolored light was etched upon every prism mirror the unique laser passed through, creating a breathtaking and awe-inspiring visual spectacle.

While Eleonora focused intensely on neutralizing every spiritual arrow aimed at her, Emilia had already decimated those targeting her. She then shifted her attention to the destruction of the barrier entrapping them both.

'To dismantle this, I require a single, devastatingly powerful strike, concentrated on one precise point,' Emilia mused, her thoughts racing.

Resolved, she channeled an immense amount of mana into her mace, converting it into superheated magma that engulfed the weapon, transforming it into a colossal magma mace.

Swinging it in a horizontal arc, Emilia shouted fervently, "Magma Burst!" A massive explosion of magma erupted as her mace shot forward. A linear stream of magma, broad in diameter, surged at lightning speed and crashed into Draco's barrier.

The dome-shaped barrier quaked violently, even leaving Draco struggling to maintain its coherence. Witnessing this, Zix unleashed a barrage of hundreds of spiritual arrows once more.

But it was all in vain, as the cluster of spiritual arrows was promptly vaporized by Eleonora's divine laser beam.

"Tch—what a bothersome woman," Zix hissed in frustration, his brow furrowing tightly as he watched his entire volley of spiritual arrows obliterated in the blink of an eye.

In the midst of Zix's simmering frustration, Emilia had already succeeded in shattering the barrier crafted by Draco.

On the other hand, Draco appeared visibly exhausted, unable to maintain his battle spirit armor any longer. His stamina had been depleted by the continuous channeling of vast amounts of mana into his barrier to uphold its integrity.

Draco had to admit his defeat in terms of stamina and mana capacity to Emilia, who remained unfazed and showed no signs of fatigue.

Yet, Draco was not one to run out of options. He reached into his pocket and retrieved a small plastic box containing a single blue pill. "For the first time, I'm forced to use a mana restoration pill," he lamented, his expression one of helplessness, before swiftly consuming the pill.

Observing his brother's fatigue, Zix took the initiative to unleash a barrage of attacks to provide cover.

Draco's body was enveloped in an intense green light, signifying that his mana reserves were fully replenished. His vitality and stamina were also revitalized, thanks to the additional effects of the pill he consumed.

Without further delay, he intended to unleash the greatest potential of his magical prowess.

"Come forth to me, 'The Warlord of Destruction!!'" Draco exclaimed with fervor, summoning his battle spirit in its ultimate form. Shortly thereafter, the sound of war drums resonated loudly in the air, heralding the arrival of his battle spirit.

At that very moment, a blinding deep green light illuminated the sky, methodically forming the limbs of Draco's battle spirit simultaneously. Within seconds, the final form of his battle spirit fully manifested upon the earth, standing resolute beside Zix's Valkyrie of Poison.

Unlike the Valkyrie of Poison, The Warlord of Destruction materialized as a gigantic, muscular humanoid, fashioned from deep green spiritual energy. The fearsome mask still adorned its visage, yet only the battle spirit wore it, while Draco himself donned specialized armor as the controlling medium.

The Warlord of Destruction was clad in heavily intimidating armor, adorned with various unique ornaments covering its entire form. Moreover, two colossal greatswords were sheathed on its back in a crossed position.

Draco's battle spirit stood slightly taller than Zix's, but statistically, they were equivalent, albeit in distinct domains.

A pair of menacing red beams gleamed from behind Draco's battle spirit mask. The Warlord of Destruction gazed dominantly at the two individuals deemed enemies by his master.

"Hahaha—now we are invincible. Apologies for making you both wait so long. It's time to commence the real battle," Draco declared with pride, as if he held complete control over the course of the skirmish.

Emilia and Eleonora laughed uproariously at Draco's boastful speech. They couldn't believe there was a boy so eager simply for unveiling his ultimate power to Sorcerers, who were of equal rank.

Irritated that his address was taken as a joke, Draco drew two great swords from his back. He swung them vertically in unison, unleashing a sharp wave of destructive green spiritual energy that sliced through the sea and several naval ships behind Eleonora and Emilia, who deftly dodged.

The destructive spiritual energy wave didn't stop there; it continued rapidly past various obstacles, mere milliseconds away from reaching the aircraft carrier.

Sensing victory was near, Draco grinned with satisfaction, envisioning the great destruction befalling the naval command center. However, his expression turned to shock as he witnessed his destructive spiritual energy wave being forcibly dispersed without leaving a trace by a vastly superior force.

"What—what is that—"

Before he could finish his sentence, a black-haired young man, visibly enraged, appeared before him. With a swing of his sword, he released a violet destructive aura that cleaved Draco's battle spirit in two, as if slicing tofu.

"Arrrghhhh—it hurts!!" Draco screamed at the top of his lungs as his consciousness gradually began to fade.

"How dare you interrupt my focus while watching the world's greatest spectacle!!" Lucius bellowed, unable to contain the surge of anger and frustration in his chest.

He was furious, his focus shattered while watching Lilith and her two maids heat up in the bedroom. As his concentration wavered, he was discovered, causing Lilith to abruptly halt her favorite activity.
