Alice started the assault with Monster Lord's Cruelty at Ilias, soon following with Tamamo's fire attack, Ilias blocked the hits with her external predatory organs, who then shot out a tentacle that was caught from Alma Elma before she drove her palm into it.
Meanwhile Granberia, Micaela, and Erubetie rushed in, the first two attacked Ilias directly while Erubetie defended the two of them with her slimy body.
Alma Elma attacked both on long range with wind magic and martial arts, however Marco disappeared…
Ilias was distracted with the "Flies" flying around her and annoying herm she used Shamshir, which created a gust of wind sending some people back, Alice started to go all out and charged her magic for her next attack while everyone else continued their attacks.
Granberia and Alma Elma were the only ones that could only deflect the attacks instead of really hurting Ilias, meanwhile Tamamo and Micaela's attacks did some damage, but not much, some burned spots here and there and some scratches.
15 seconds passed from the start…
Ilias then started to use the Flame of Judgement, on everyone nearby, who were Everyone except Alice and Alma Elma, but Erubetie used Aqua Pentagram to protect them, the attack was unable to get through the perfect barrier, leaving everyone unscathered.
Alice finished to charge her attack and used a combination of Omega Blaze, Frost Ozma, and Monster Lord's Cruelty, this time managing to injure a bit Ilias, but it wasn't still around the level of Tamamo and Micaela's attacks.
Ilias: Tch… That annoying barrier…
She concentrated her holy magic and shot it at the Aqua Pentagram, shattering the barrier.
Erubetie: It can't be… With a single blow?
Alice: This is a God's power… Even an ability of perfect defense can't stand against her power as she is right now… '38 more seconds…'
Ilias then charged a thunder and threw it down, but Erubetie used her body as a shield for everyone, greatly hurting her.
Erubetie: Guh…!
Ilias: You cannot block my attacks forever. It seems you will be the first to fall into hell.
Ilias started to charge a strong magic attack…
Ilias: Let's begin the re-creati-
Micaela: Come, you face my holy blade!
Then she used Sword of the Heavens, her strongest attack, and managed to knock back Ilias before she could use that spell, gaining 3 more seconds. Tamamo immediately followed with her Nine Moons, all of her nine tails slamming onto Ilias.
Ilias: You damn pests!
She threw down another lightning, but Erubetie took the hit, since it was lightning, it hurted like hell to her.
Erubetie: AAAHHHHHH!!!!!
Alice: Erubetie, no more! You've done enough, withdraw!
Erubetie: No… More… For my brethren… I can continue…
She gritted her teeth and continued to protect everyone nearby. 26 more seconds…
Tamamo used all of her remaining energy to attack Ilias, creating a beam made of moonlight, the beam slammed onto Ilias' abominable body, and managed to stop her movements for a short time.
Ilias: I'll kill you all!
Ilias broke the attack with her holy magic, but everyone gained 4 seconds with this, Tamamo's body shrunk back to her sealed body.
Tamamo: ...But I won't fall back. I'll settle the score from the war long ago!
Alice: ...No, fall back! You have no power left to fight!
Tamamo: ...I will not listen to that order, Monster Lord. This is no time to argue, we must-
Alice: Tamamo… I've always thought of you as my…
She threw another spell at Ilias while dodging a tentacle, then she started to talk again.
Alice: ...Second mother. I don't want to lose another mother before my very eyes when we are winning soon… So please, fall back. And let it to us.
Tamamo: But… *Sigh* Then I'll leave it to you young ones. Use those 4 seconds I gained to win…
Then Tamamo retreated back, leaving only 5 fighting. Ilias tried to use again Big Bang, but like before, she was interrupted from another Sword of the Heavens from Micaela, gaining 5 seconds this time.
Ilias: You…!
Micaela: *Pant* Everyone… I will stay back, I can't fight anymore too…
Now the ones remaining were Alice, Granberia, Alma Elma, and Erubetie, but the last one didn't seem like she could resist more…
Ilias unleashed another wind attack, and Erubetie protected everyone remaining with her body.
Erubetie: More… You won't get past me…
Even though she was way past her limit, she continued to stand there, with her body collapsing. 10 more seconds…
Alice: ...Stop this, now! You are dismi-
Ilias: Die under my overwhelming power!
She used Big Bang for a third time, and with no one strong enough to interrupt her, Ilias attacked, but since she already lost a considerable power with trying to use it 2 times, it was a bit weaker, but enough to almost making fall conscious Granberia and Alma Elma, while Erubetie was finally flung away.
She managed to recompose herself but then she fell unconscious, meanwhile Alma Elma and Granberia attacked together again, however another tentacle slapped them away, leaving them unable to continue to fight, and they slowly walked near Erubetie, where Tamamo and Micaela was too.
Granberia: I can't believe we were so useless…
Tamamo: Don't worry, you two managed to continue until the end, we won…
Ilias turned towards Alice, and laughed.
Ilias: You will be the first one to die, Monster Lord, you were a spine on my back since half a year ago, attacking me at the same day I wanted to baptize Marco so he would not be corrupted from you… You reduced him in that way! You made him make the contract with the Doom Overlord! You made him turn against me!
Alice: ...No, it was your fault… He already knew everything from the beginning, he already knew that it was you who killed his mother, and he knew about your plan since he started the journey. You don't know anything about him!
Ilias: Tch, just die already! You already lost!
Ilias raised her tentacle and brought it down.
Alice: No… We already won.
A crimson flash appeared between Ilias and Alice, and slashed at Ilias' tentacle with a black blur, cutting it cleanly.
Ilias: So you decided to come… Marco.
At the other side of the place there was a giant fox that stood on his two legs, it was armored with the crimson cursed armor, which changed its shape to fit the fox, at his hands there was an enormous Doomblade.
Ilias: I thought you ran away… If you really did that I could consider to not kill you and reward for real… But if you think that cursed armor is able to kill me, then you are wrong.
Marco: Ilias, Ilias, Ilias… I never said "I" could kill you…
Marco's armored tails pressed on Alice and everyone else, the armor opened and let them enter Marco's body.
Marco: Now, I'll bid you goodbye.
Marco then tackled Ilias in the ground before stomping on her and run away. The Doomblade disappeared from his paws and the armor around him disappeared, making return the golden glow, and then Marco ran even faster while everyone looked behind.
Micaela: Why are we running away?
Tamamo: ...You could kill her.
Marco: Nah, I can't, I am not strong enough even with the Doom Overlord's armor protecting me, now let's leave before we get hit too…
Alice: ...We?
They narrowed their eyes behind Marco, and saw something coming while Ilias was standing up again…
It was something big… Really big… It dwarfed even Ilias and Marco's bijuu gate put together.
It had a dark pink color, but it made the attack more ominous.
It was destroying everything on its way.
When Ilias sensed something perversely overpowered behind her, she turned around and saw it. The Juubi Dama at the size of a big mountain, and it was 3 arms away from Ilias.
Ilias: Oh crap baskets…
The ground nearby started to get reduced in giant debris and flew towards Ilias, but before reaching her, the pressure of the incoming explosion completely destroyed them, and finally the big boom came.
Marco was already at the border of the Heavens and looked from behind a small mountain.
The first thing that everyone saw was a pink glow that was lightening the entire Heaven, before everything turned white.
When the white light vanished, there was a giant mushroom cloud at the center of the Heavens, visible even from the borders, and everyone looked down, seeing the borders of the crater the attack caused.
Alice: ...What was that…
Marco: This… is the attack made from me using all the 5 spirits and a bijuudama, it's like the Quadruple Giga, but with an additional element and encased in a bijuudama… This is the power that only the Ten-Tails can use… The Juubi Dam-Shit…!
Marco's fox construct disappeared, letting everyone fall down, but the ones that were still stable caught the others, before looking back at the nothingness that stood instead of the Heavens, and then they left too, taking back an unconscious Marco.
