Before Dora started her fight
After Lilia punched the new Demon General, Belphegor, into the portal she created, she rushed in after him, and the portal closed.
Belphegor was still shocked that he was punched, but he quickly regained himself and stopped himself in the air.
He flew down and looked around to know where he was. He found out that he was in a land filled with mountains and trees. There was a sky and clouds, but the strange thing is that there was no sun, but everywhere was bright.
"Where the heck is this place?" He asked himself in confusion.
"This is an empty world I created in my personal space," Lilia, who just appeared in the land, answered.
"Created?" Belphegor looked at Lilia like she was a fool. "Creation magic is possible for S-Rank and Demon General, but creating a world is not something demi-gods like us can do. Only the Demon King and the gods have such power. Am I supposed to believe that you are on their level?"
"Believe what you want. It makes no difference to me what a dead demon chooses to believe." Lilia waved her hands as if dismissing Belphegor.
Naturally, Lilia's action pissed off Belphegor. He gave her an evil smile. "I'm going to enjoy killing you, girl, very slowly."
"Only if you have the ability. I've always wondered about the level of power a Demon General has. Even though you are newly promoted, I still high hope for you. So, don't disappoint me now, Demon General Belphegor!" Lilia got into her stance.
Not even wasting time, Belphegor ran at a speed almost faster than light should travel and reached Lilia before she could blink. He punched her in the face without holding anything back.
Boooooommmmm!
The ground they were standing on shattered as if a nuclear bomb exploded there, and Lilia's body flew away and impacted a nearby mountain, which shattered as her body kept flying. Before Lilia's body could fall to the ground, Belphegor had already appeared behind her and punched her again, but this time, his punch landed on her stomach, which sent her flying upward. Everything was being destroyed by the shockwave of his punch.
Using his new speed, Belphegor appeared above Lilia and began to send a rain of punches all over her body with his full strength. Each punch he threw carried a shockwave that was powerful enough to destroy all the mountains in the area and shattered the lands, making it look like a country-sized explosion was going off in the sky.
Finally, Belphegor appeared above Lilia and gave her his full-powered chop on her head, which sent her flying to the ground with great force. The ground literally shattered when Lilia's body impacted it. Lava began to pour out after the land shattered and covered up everything.
Belphegor, who was still in the air with his wings, looked at his hand and smiled. "I still feel an overwhelmingly amount of power in me even after all that. So this is the realm beyond the Demon Duke. It is incredible!"
"I'm happy that you feel that way, but you can't seriously tell me that that is the extent of your new powers?"
Belphegor hurriedly looked down and saw Lilia standing inside the lava covered ground which was caused when she crashed into the ground. Her standing up was indeed shocking for him, but the key here is that she was standing without a single scratch on her, which was why he was speechless.
Lilia casually brushed off some dust on her clothes which was miraculously not burnt and sighed. "Look at how a brute demon like you handles a delicate lady like myself. You'll never have a girlfriend at this rate."
Belphegor, at this point, became wary of Lilia. "Who are you really?"
Lilia gently flew up and stopped opposite where Belphegor was. "I told you that I am Lilia, an A-rank adventurer."
"Bullshit! No A-rank can withstand my onslaught like that without dying!" Belphegor screamed at her.
"Like I told you before, I couldn't care less if you believe me or not. After all, the dead have no need for knowledge. If you still have a trump card, now will be a good time to use it because once I attack, it will be over," Lilia told Belphegor with a serious expression.
Something about the way Lilia said those words told Belphegor that she was not messing around.
He raised both of his hands and concentrated his mana in his hand. Soon the sky around the area began to darken, and lightning began to zap everywhere. Huge wind began to blow everywhere, and the lands began to melt.
Belphegor's mana covered the entire area, and it began to form a massive ball of purple energy above his head. The ball of energy began to grow and grow until it became as big as a small sun. The heat it was radiating was melting the ground around the area.
"No matter how powerful you are, you'll never survive half of my mana consecrated into an attack . This is Cosmic radiation in its truest form. THIS IS POWER!" Belphegor screamed with a crazed look.
Lilia calmly stood her ground while watching the big purple ball of energy. She stretched out her hand, and her heavy sword appeared in her hand. She smiled while looking at the energy.
Belphegor was really annoyed when he saw that Lilia was smiling. "What are you smiling about? Shouldn't you be cowering in fear! You obviously have no means of surviving this attack."
"Ara~ what gave you that impression? I admit that this attack of yours is powerful, but I wouldn't know how powerful it is unless I feel it firsthand." Lilia, not losing her smile, got into her stance with her sword in hand.
"You are insane," Belphegor looked astonished.
Lilia smirked at him. "That's the best compliment you can give me."
Not bothering to speak, Belphegor brought down his hand, and the huge ball of energy followed suit. The massive energy fell until it impacted on the ground where Lilia was standing.
What followed thereafter was an explosion that looked like an atomic bomb going off. The shockwave from the explosion was so powerful that it pushed Belphegor, who covered himself with his artificial barrier, back. Everything insight was destroyed by the explosion, and it spread far and wide to all the lands in this strange world.
It has always been said that an S-rank from the Human realm and demon general from the Demon realm can destroy a continent even though no one has seen them do it. But today, it was proven that indeed a demon general can destroy a continent because the explosion that happened literally destroyed this continent of the artificial world where Lilia and the demon Belphegor were fighting on.
It didn't take long for the explosion to die down, leaving a huge cloud of black smoke.
Belphegor, who was still in the air, released his barrier and looked at his hand. "That took about half of my reserve. So this is what I'm capable of now. Since I've obviously won, I might as well figure out where I am in other to..."
He stopped talking when he felt something moving in the cloud of smoke. He looked for some time and saw someone flying out of the smoke. He couldn't believe his eyes, and he even suspected that he was seeing things because what he saw made no sense at all. The human girl who should have died just now was casually flying out of the smoke.
Lilia flew out of the smoke until she reached opposite where Belphegor was. She couldn't help but laugh when she saw the shock, scared, and astonished look on Belphegor's face.
"Ara~ what's with that look? Were you somehow hoping that I would die in that attack?"
Belphegor didn't answer mainly because he was still shocked at what he is seeing.
"I gave you a chance to use your best move on me, but it obviously didn't work. I guess I have no need to keep you alive since I've gotten all the data I need on the strength level of a demon general," Lilia told him.
The truth is that Lilia could have easily blocked that attack just now, but she wanted to understand just how much powerful a demon general is compared to a demon duke. The attack just now made her understood that the world cannot withstand the fight of a demon general and an S-rank. Those monster's power are beyond what the delicate world can handle.
No wonder the S-ranks of the human realm and the Demon generals of the demon realm are in a ceasefire. Both side must have understood that the world can't withstand a fight between them and are just bidding their time.
Belphegor didn't know how Lilia survived, but hearing what she said made him put up his artificial barrier he got from his magic tool bracelet.
He had his whole attention on Lilia not knowing what she will do, but right before his eyes, Lilia disappeared, and he heard a voice whispering in his ears.
"I forgot to mention this to you earlier, but you are incredibly slow."
That was all he heard before he felt his barrier shatter and a sword smashing into his abdomen. The sword that smashed into him was done with the flat side, but it was beyond heavy which cracked all his ribs, making him cough out blood.
As Belphegor was sent flying, Lilia's eyes glowed a shade of red, and the space froze, stopping Belphegor from moving. Red lightning bolts began to appear in the sky above the frozen Belphegor who could only look on helplessly as he couldn't move due to the space being frozen and his bones being broken.
"Lightning Halo."
With those words said by Lilia, the many Red lightning bolts zapped at Belphegor and brought him to the ground with force. The force from the lightning cleared out all the smoke in the area revealing a scorched ground and Belphegor who looked like he has been burnt alive, but the funny thing was that he was still alive and standing.
Lilia was actually impressed with the durability of the demon general Belphegor. "I commend you on not dying from my attacks. I will reward you by showing you one of my many ultimate techniques."
Saying that, Lilia let loose her mana, and the entire artificial planet began to shake. The sound stopped but the world kept shaking as if an earthquake was happening on the entire world.
Belphegor, who was still in pain, looked up in shock, and when he felt Lilia's mana, blood drained from his face.
"NO WAY! WHAT ARE YOU? POWERS LIKE THIS CAN ONLY BE WIELDED BY THE DEMON KING! HOW CAN A HUMAN HAVE THIS AMOUNT OF MANA?" Belphegor screamed in fear.
Lilia ignored him and raised her heavy sword in the air with both of her hands. "Let me see you survive this move, Demon General Belphegor!"
"No please! I surrender, I SURRENDER!" Belphegor kept screaming in fear due to the amount of mana Lilia was releasing which was comparable to the demon king as he said.
Lilia's sword began to release a massive red energy which penetrated the sky. Lilia smirked at the pleading Belphegor.
"This..."
The red energy of her heavy sword intensified causing cracks to appear in the dimension, sky, and the artificial world.
"Is..."
She readied her sword causing more cracks to appear, and the helpless Belphegor could only look on as his end approached.
"Power..."
She brought down her sword shooting the red energy straight at Belphegor who screamed as the energy covered him and the entire world.
Boooooommmmmmm!
