[MP: 29,100/75,000]
"Let us go then..."
Xavier in his spectral yellow form slithered past me, deeper into the mind space of Illyana. Around us the inky blackness from before was being quickly replaced by dull and bright greys alike. The colours swirled together creating and almost water-like visual affect.
We traversed a fair distance before the first signs screeching and roaring demons came into our perception. Xavier started to project his psychic energy outside of his 'body' and formed them into weapons. I started to summon up shadowy weapons using {Astra Domina}. We continued forwards. Slowly large towering pillars with chains hung off of them began to appear, the chains leading to smaller and smaller pillars, leading to a central pedestal where Illyana was currently bound and was being tortured.
I started to see red when I saw the scene of a large Conan-like figure cutting into her flesh. When I started to see red I also saw pure white, the two colours uniting into a joint colour of pinkish-gold. My mind gained uncanny clarity as my emotions sundered through my body and mana. Xavier beside me was frowning deeply, a deeply disgusted scowl starting to form as we saw more.
"They... Are dead, all of them."
I saw Xavier turned to look at me, his expression still unchanged as he then looked back. I activated my Nen then began to use my En, unfurled my two sets of wings and awoke my spell, {Psycheclairvoyant Liberatus}
Starting to hum from the amount of energy and power I was accumulating I soon noticed hundreds of demons hunkering down on the monumentally large pillars. Some of the demons were shadowy and indistinct, whilst others looked almost exactly like you would think demons would look like.
The shadowy swords, spears and pikes from Astra Domina that had been hanging in the air, completely still ,all rotated and pointed towards the demons. Swatting my hand forwards towards the demons hundreds of shadowy weapons sundered through the space before landing on the fowl demonic host.
Xavier started to target the Conan-looking guy who had, since our appearance, stopped his work and had turned to look at us. I felt space ripple from the yellow psychic energy of Xavier as the bald muscular man below began to float towards the two of us.
I continued to cut a swathe through the demons, ripping them into fleshy shreds. This was when I felt a certain element of my stat block awaken and the Demon Hunter title applied an effect to all my attacks. Soon I noticed that my attacks were purging the demons of their connections to their bodies, the souls slowly flowing towards me so they can be consumed.
'Let's kills this fucker.'
Turning towards the bald figure I raised my hand high, my power blazing. A pulling sensation suffused my consciousness for a moment, yanking my vision from the figure towards the pedestal where Illyana lay, slowly bleeding. Anger surged throughout my head when I saw it but that wasn't what was pulling me. Focusing my En on the area, the feeling of the blood sickening me, I detected a longsword with glowing red runes flaring every now and again laying against the side of the pedestal. Something inside of me was drawing me towards it, to use it on the man. Use the man's own sword on him? That's maniacally evil, I like it at this moment.
Instantaneously I blinked into existence right next to the pedestal where Illyana, completely conscious stared at me blankly, tears running down her face as small cries for help escaped her lips every so often. I placed my right hand on her cheek as I leant down with my left and grasped the sword. As soon as I grasped the sword several psychic presences tried to bear down on my mind, trying to corrupt it, mould it and sicken it.
[Eat a dick you tentacled motherfuckers!]
All the presences disappeared into the aether as if they were puppets with their strings cut. I grinned broadly, my eyes glowing pinkish gold as I looked back at the man that had caused all of this pain to Illyana. The man looked back at me with a small malicious grin painting his face before deflecting Xavier's mental attacks with a flicker of his hand. The space halted around the yellow psychic energy causing it to freeze in place before being scattered. Xavier's bright yellow form became slightly transparent at the move of the man, as if he had just taken a significant blow. However, seconds later his aura lit up, like a super Saiyan. His form taking a more solid representation of himself.
"I've had enough."
Those were all the words he spoke as what soon followed was awe inspiringly powerful. His aura transitioned into representations of X-men and other powerful mutants, all of them leaping into action and using their separate powers. A yellow storm flew in the greyness of the space as golden pillars of lightning flared straight towards the bald man. Cyclops opened his eyes fully, his powers glowing redish gold as a massive laser blasted into the man. Jean Grey's hair flared up behind her as the man was grasped psychically and spread as if he was being drawn and quartered. Logan drew his claws out and began to stab rhythmically into the man.
These attacks were massively powerful and fully represented just how powerful Xavier is as a psychic. The demonstration of powers was cut short however when the man simply began humming, the space warping and twisting. All of the summoned 'X-men' were instantly obliterated.
"Hahaha! You are truly foolish to verse me on my own home turf. You cannot even scratch me in this place, you have made a grave mistake and now you will suffer for it."
"Oh shut up with the monologuing!"
I took the longsword in my hands as I teleported behind him and proceeded to thrust straight through his stomach, followed by me kicking it out of him, the sword still in my grasp, and drawing it back for a full swipe with the sword towards his head. I was attempting to decapitate him but unfortunately I was a step too late as he vanished and reappeared behind Xavier his expression livid.
"Tsk, pesky bitch with my sword, how did you tame the old geezers in that sword? Doesn't matter I suppose."
He brought his hand down, a magically constructed sword forming out of his hand. His hand was being brought down onto the head of Xavier who just noticed this.
"Vile thing, you shall not have the victory you desire."
Exerting himself and his energy more, the raw yellow psychic energy encased the bulging muscles of demonic man. The energy strained and pulled as the man's eyes started to glow green and red, several magical tattoos lighting across his body as the colour change took place. The energy quickly started to buckle, but it allowed Xavier to escape closer to his ally, me.
"This is going to be tough..."
"Your telling me."

(Illyana's Perspective)
I had been laying here through the whole fight, the blood flowing from the places where he rended my flesh and sliced my muscles. Emelia was fighting for me, that truth itself gave me some hope of escaping the clutches of Belasco. She looked stunningly beautiful despite the anger she showed at my situation and the glowing pinkish-gold power that emanated from her.
'I can't just lay here... I need to do something.'
'W-what can i do? I've already lost.'
"Oh shut up with the monologuing!"
Emelia's words stunned me out of the depressing thought as I struggled to look in her direction. After some effort, I finally saw a scene I thought I'd never see. A sword was plunged into the usually impervious skin of Belasco.
'H-hold on, t-that's not possible... He's immortal... Isn't he?'
Something warm coalesced within my soul, a place where I was forced to learn how to interpret thanks to his tortures. The feeling soon was replaced by a soothing cold spreading across my body, the wounds and past tortures fading away like marker ink being wiped by a wet cloth.
'What is going on?'
