Colin's mind was in a dark place both figuratively and literally. All he could see around him was black and all he could feel was a never ceasing rage that filled every fiber of his being. In the distance, he could hear something, but he couldn't make out what it was.
*********************************************
The tall pillar of hellfire started to shrink, but the feeling of utter malice Synthia and the others felt radiating from inside the pillar only got stronger. The saints were shivering uncontrollably and cold sweat covered their entire body, the three Angels were feeling the same intimidation, but it was affecting them less than the more vulnerable saints. Soon the pillar disappeared, and out came a creature of unknown identity, no, they knew who it was, they just couldn't believe it was the same person.
"What the hell is that thing?" One of the saints asked as his legs shook with fear and he shakily took a step back, trying to put as much distance between himself and the creature. The creature in question had skin so pale that it looked like a sheet of white paper, his irises glowed a malicious red and his sclera was abyssal black, there were black cracks under his eyes that looked like black veins. He had long black hair that seemed to suck up all the light around it and an equally black pair of wings that were wider than a normal Demon Noble's, two onyx black horns adorned his head that looked like they were made of metal and forged in hell as glowing red lines ran through them. His upper body was covered in a thick red vein like tattoo that covered his entire upper that pulsates with raw power. His tail that waved casually in the air, but the saints could barely see it as it moved at high speeds.
"I'm outta here." One of the saints said after drinking in Colin's new, monstrous figure for a few seconds, but as soon as he took a step, he suddenly froze and red lines appeared all over his body.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." The saint screamed in pain as he was engulfed in hellfire. He dropped to the ground and screamed in pain, but unlike what would usually happen, he didn't die and instead the hellfire continued to burn him as he screamed in pain.
"What the hell?" Synthia said as she saw this scene, but her attention was soon drawn back to Colin as she heard a loud maniacal laughter that filled her heart with dread. Colin gave her a savage grin, that showed off his pearly white fangs, before dashing forward with amazing speed. He appeared infront of them a second later and sent out a powerful punch towards Synthia's head. Unable to react, Synthia could only watch as his fist got closer, but luckily, Castiel managed to block it with his glaive, but was pushed back a few meters. Colin lifted his fist to send another punch, but this time, Sera came in with her sword and swung it down towards his hand, intending to sever it. Colin's tail whipped towards the sword and grabbed it mid strike, before Colin redirected his fist towards Sera's face, knocking out a few of her teeth and sending her flying backwards. Snapping out of her daze, Synthia sent a punch towards Colin coated in her heavenly flames and Colin jumped backwards to avoid it.
"Colin, I'm not sure if you can hear me, but I'm sorry for what Castiel and these guys did to you, Alice and Lily, but I can't let you hurt them. So please, snap out of it, I do not want to hurt." Synthia said, but Colin just grinned at her and created a completely red fireball with small wisps of black in it. Synthia gritted her teeth and created a golden shield made with her holy energy and her heavenly flames. Colin launched the fireball towards her and she braced for impact but it never came, instead, the fireball split into multiple smaller pieces and went around her shield, before hitting the other nine saints, much to their horror.
"Hell Fire Affinity: Curse of the Burning Soul." Colin said in a deep voice that scared the saints as they were engulfed in flames and fell to the ground screaming in pain. Synthia looked at this scene in horror as she could hear their bone chilling screams while Colin gave a savage grin as he enjoyed their torment. Suddenly, a powerful jet of water shot past Synthia and flew towards Colin, but he didn't move an inch as a red barrier appeared infront of him, blocking the heat stream.
"Whatever that thing is, it's not Colin anymore so don't hold back. Even though it's powerful, we should be able to beat it with combined effort." Sera said as she walked towards Synthia's side, she had a second sword in her hand and handed it to Synthia. She looked at the screaming saints on the ground, and created a ball of water and dropped it on them to try and douse the flames, but it only worked for a second before the flames reignited.
"Fine, I guess I can atleast end your suffering here." Sera said and lifted her blade to kill them, but before she could strike, their bodies were suddenly dragged across the ground towards Colin and stopped just behind him.
"Fine then." Sera said and gripped her sword tightly before giving him a resolute glare.
