Guardian smirks as he stands up from his knee on Crater, taunting, "Seems like you're unable to use your Abyssal Curse, huh? Despite being a demon, it seems that you are unable to use one of the most fundamental tools for demons."
Malgorth responds, "What's the big deal if I can't? How does that alter the fact that I am unable to defeat you? Additionally, I possess the Heavenly Delusion power since birth."
The Guardian's smirk grows even wider as they respond, "That's good to know!"
A Guardian suddenly appears in front of Malgorth and delivers a forceful punch to the face. Malgorth grits his teeth as he quickly defends against the punch.

Malgorth breathes heavily as his body slowly heals from brutal injuries and scars. His face is gradually recovering from burn marks, while his other arm has been severed from his body.
Malgorth begins to shift his attention towards his other shoulder, channeling his energy to facilitate the regeneration of his other arm.
Guaedian rises to his feet, fixing Malgorth with a stern gaze. He questions, "How is it possible for someone like you to receive the grace of heaven?"
Malgorth responds, "I'm not sure, but could it be that the process of grace by the heavens involves deeds from a previous incarnation?"
Guardian replies, "I mean, yeah." Guardian hesitates before saying, "Wait, don't tell me! This means you did something that brought happiness to the heavens.
Malgorth smirks, responding, "That does seem logical." The Guardian approaches with a stern expression, moving deliberately.
Malgorth's other arm fully regenerates, while the scars and burning marks on his face gradually fade away. With a confident grin, he declares, "Alright, now I am healed. Don't bother, Guardian. Your efforts are futile. Do you understand that I have completely endured your heavenly state?"
Guardian responds, "It's not very respectful. It seems you fail to recognize the magnitude of the force you are up against."
Malgorth grins mischievously as he charges at Guardian. With a swift flying kick, Guardian is temporarily taken aback but quickly retaliates with a punch to the stomach. Malgorth's eyebrows raise in surprise as he gets punched in the stomach. He instinctively puts a hand on his stomach.

Guardian smirks as he says, "You see that purple flare. Yea, good luck." The purple flare begins to absorb all the surrounding energies, including those of Malgorth and the elements, storing them within its singularity.
The Guardian skillfully evades the purple flare's radius by tumbling. Malgorth yells as his energy is getting absorbed, "You despicable individual..."
After gathering energy in singularity, the purple flare intensifies, growing sharper and more powerful. Eventually, it unleashes a massive and devastating explosion.
Malgorth loudly exclaims, "NOOOOOOOOOO!" Before being overwhelmed by a powerful explosion. A swirling vortex of purple energy and smoke consumes everything in its radius.
The guardian's expression shifts from a smirk to wide-eyed surprise. As the smoke dissipates, Malgorth calmly faces the Guardian, a smile on his face. Despite the explosion, his body remains unscathed.
Guardian is taken aback, exclaiming, "H-How!" Malgorth responds, "That was... Etherflare, wasn't it?" Guardian replies, hesitantly, "Yea."
Malgorth confidently replies, "Etherflare is a powerful technique that has the ability to absorb energy from various sources, including objects, living entities, and elements such as fire, water, air, earth, and ether. And after absorbing energies in singularity, it releases a powerful explosion that destroys everything in its radius. That is, Etherflare."
Guardian responds sternly, "So, you're familiar with this attack, huh?" Malgorth chuckles in response, "Oh, absolutely, I'm well aware of it. This is one of the fundamental attacks, possessed by every single primordial energy or force."
"Hmm, interesting. I must say, your knowledge is quite impressive. However, it's not a significant issue. However, it is quite uncommon for a demon to possess such knowledge." Guardian remarks.
The Guardian continues by saying, "I have a proposition for you. Would you care to hear it?" Malgorth responds, "Go ahead; I'm all ears."
The Guardian confidently states, "Let's settle this battle once and for all. And, if you were somehow able to defeat me in this battle, I might consider allowing you to possess the 'Diamond of Curse' for tomorrow's war against humanity. What are your thoughts on this? Will you be in agreement?"
Malgorth confidently responds, "I accept the offer. Bring it on."
The Guardian smirks, assuming a battle pose. Malgorth also assumes a battle stance, confidently declaring, "This will be fun for round 3."
