In the different space.
Grayfia and Ayato stood facing each other.
It seemed as if invisible forces were colliding between them. The rippling aftershocks had already made the surrounding air visibly ripple.
"So this is the power of a Campione?"
A gleam of light flashed in Grayfia's eyes. She raised one hand slightly, her fingers glowing.
Hum!
A vast magic circle quickly formed in the void, radiating a terrifying and oppressive aura.
The next moment,
A vast beam of magical energy shot out, as if destroying heaven and earth, heading towards Ayato.
Incarnation: Gale!
Ayato's expression didn't change. He merely raised his hand slightly.
In an instant, the entire different space was stirred up.
The originally colorful sky seemed to have dark clouds rolling, as if destroying the world.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A tornado raged, descending from the sky like a true apocalyptic disaster.
In just an instant,
The powers of the two sides collided.
Hum!
The entire different space seemed to fall into momentary silence.
Then came an earth-shattering roar, even more terrifying than a thunderclap.
In an instant, visible shockwaves spread in all directions like raging waves.
Countless buildings were directly leveled.
The terrifying explosion shot straight into the sky, forming a giant mushroom cloud, like a sun in this different space.
And at this moment,
In the midst of the sky-high dust,
The figures of Grayfia and Ayato moved simultaneously.
Bang!
A dull sound echoed in the different space.
Ayato and Grayfia's figures stopped facing each other, their fists touching.
Silently.
The ground beneath their feet was covered in chaotic, crisscrossing countless cracks,
As if the ground had endured a thousand cuts in an instant.
"Ayato-chan, you're indeed very strong."
"Grayfia-nee, this is only the beginning."
The two looked at each other, their figures disappearing simultaneously.
Rumble!
Terrifying explosions followed one after another.
In the midst of the sky-high dust, Ayato and Grayfia collided again and again at unimaginable speeds.
Grayfia had completely entered combat mode, her Devil wings flapping. With a casual wave, she unleashed various magics.
Each magic had astonishing destructive power, all exceeding the level of ordinary Satans.
At the same time,
Ayato used the Incarnation: Raptor, displaying the world's fastest speed.
No magic could touch him in the slightest.
With every gesture, the power of various incarnations was at his fingertips.
Facing Grayfia, he showed an extremely tough stance.
She was similar to Esdeath.
To win her over willingly, he can only do so through power.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The battle grew increasingly fierce.
The entire different space trembled continuously.
The two fought from the ground to the air, and from the air deep into countless buildings.
Good thing they're fighting in the Game Field.
If it were outside, probably more than one city would turn to ashes in the face of their power.
Boom!
Another roar rang out.
At this time, Ayato and Grayfia both flew backwards.
Where they passed, the ground below seemed split open by a sword, forming a huge chasm.
"Ayato-chan, it seems a bit difficult for you to beat me in this state."
Grayfia blinked, smiling: "How about we put aside the matter of you becoming my master for now?"
"How can that be?"
Ayato brushed the dust off his clothes and said helplessly: "I've been quite troubled all along."
"Troubled?"
"Yes."
Ayato nodded and said seriously: "I've been estimating my power, trying to find the level that won't hurt Grayfia-nee."
"Ayato-chan, bragging isn't good, you know?"
Grayfia's eyes narrowed slightly, her aura becoming dangerous: "Unruly children need to be taught a lesson."
Ayato didn't speak again, merely raising his hand slightly. Golden lightning danced like a lively spirit.
Grayfia's pupils contracted slightly: "What... what kind of magic is this?"
"This is the power that allowed me to successfully kill a god."
Ayato smiled: "But it's very dangerous, Grayfia-nee. You need to be careful."
"Then feel free to try."
Grayfia's tone didn't change, but her muscles were slightly tense.
That lightning gave her unprecedented pressure.
She even felt that Sirzechs's Power of Destruction couldn't compare in the slightest.
At this moment, she actually felt a faint fear.
For the first time in her life, she felt this way.
Even when she was weak, facing those far surpassing her strong, she hadn't felt such emotions.
'Ayato-chan, it seems you weren't lying.'
And then,
Ayato acted.
Boom!
With just a flick of his finger, a bolt of golden lightning erupted.
Its terrifying power instantly bloomed, spreading from Ayato in all directions.
"Th-this?"
Although she had been prepared, facing the power of this lightning, Grayfia still felt a chill in her heart. While retreating, she put up a magical defense.
But even so,
She was still hit by a tiny wisp of lightning.
The magical defense surrounding her showed signs of collapse.
Looking from afar,
Countless bolts of lightning crisscrossed around Ayato, seemingly capable of equally destroying everything.
'Indeed.'
'Very terrifying.'
Taking a deep breath, the corner of Grayfia's mouth unconsciously curled into a smile.
'Ayato-chan!'
'As the man I've set my sights on, let me see your true power.'
She took a deep breath, raising both hands. Her magical power fully erupted, rolling like a tide around her.
Hum!
The next moment, in the entire void, countless brilliant magic circles covered the sky.
"Ayato-chan, let's settle this with one final strike."
Grayfia's figure floated up, her nearly perfect figure bathed in the glow of the magic circles.
