Magic noises.
The odds have completely tilted over in such a manner that one can say that victory has been achieved already. From the palm of her left hand a magic circle is formed the moment she started incant the incantation. This magic circle is coloured in a dark shade of red however, it’s not Pyro even though they both are “red”. To those whose perception skill is higher than normal, they will quickly see the difference as the shades of red are different enough to notice. Those that can sense it or see it, will quickly notice the glaring differences between those two types of elements-ah yes, Extinction is indeed an element, one that was man made, or is it better to say woman made? An element that seems to devour the other elements but also one that with the slight destabilization, chaos will ensue with it. With great power comes great responsibility and this is exactly the case as the magic control needed for such is extremely high and that’s the reason for why she bothered with such a long incantation. Once the incantation was done, from the magic circle red magic particles, ones that have a dark shade of red but are also mixed with a few shades of pure black, they start to come out from it, taking the form of a smaller scythe than the one she has. While it might be smaller, around half the length, the blade on the other hand, is far too big for its size, being close to the same size as the main blade from her other scythe. The opposite of the other one, this one is made purely of magic, meaning that it doesn’t have a physical body whatsoever but somehow, she’s still able to comfortably hold onto it. Even though it’s made of magic, it has enough physical matter to be able to be held by the user. The design of it is close to impossible to be described, it has a chaotic shape to it but not the same way as the Defects no, it seems to resemble fire and its inner workings. Though it’s quite visible that it’s not fire as the colours of it do not resemble it at all, not only that, it’s not hot, nor cold either. Indeed, the temperatures are non-existent somehow
“Be gone.”
Swoosh!
Another simple movement of hers but another one that is a representation of a deadly one. With her left hand, she gently swings the magical scythe upwards towards what seems to be nothing. It’s more correct to say that none of those foul beasts are close enough to her for said swing to be effective yet, what happened next will give definition to the word effective. From the scythe, something akin to a wave of “fire” comes out from it, a wave that has a shape of a blade and one that is vertical. Coloured with that dark shade of red and those traces of the abyss, that thing travels with immense speed, hitting all of the Shadows that are on its path but disappearing into nothing the moment it leaves the “army”. Any Defect that was in front of it was cut in a precise manner however, the vast majority of them missed the core completely. Though, in this case and thanks to the properties of Extinction itself, there is no need for such. Whatever it was cut by the wave, it left behind traces of it, ones that seem to resemble how fire works on an object when it’s burning it but rather than slowly or rapidly (depending on the object in context) it will burn the entirety of it, leaving behind ashes, something that does not happen in this case. The object will be extinguished from the world itself, nothing of it will be left behind and that’s exactly what happens to these despicable Defects of the world. Luckily for them, thanks to their measly strength this process happens quickly to the point one doubts they felt any pain whatsoever. A shame, a complete and utter pity that they weren’t able to feel the pain. However, I did say that this wave of Extinction would give meaning to the word effective and the reason for that is because it effectively defeated sixty-five Shadows with it, decreasing their numbers to the low realm of four hundred. Still far too many but, if this keeps up, in only a few short minutes these sins of the world will be gone.
And this is the precise reason for why he will take action immediately.
“Stand back! I will deal with her!”
Another atrocity committed to the entire Bubble Universe he is on. Another incomprehensible sound from him. Another tragedy that left his disgusting mouth but with it, the other Shadows took action. They open a path to him, one that is direct towards the girl. With said path open, he dashes at her with immense speed, one that far surpasses all of the other Shadows that he rules and even faster than what the girl has shown until now. He leaned forward by a little bit, bending his “left” knee in the process while also dragging his right foot backwards a few centimetres. Then he used Shadow Dash to be able to achieve such incredible speeds. The girl had his back to him and with his right arm forward as much as his body allows it to and consequently his chaotic spear, he tries to pierce through her head in a gruesome way as in his mind, with such speed he will forcefully tear it from the body and without actually suffering the consequences of such speed meaning that, the body would be left standing up only to fall down mere seconds later.
Or at least, that was his despicable idea.
Elegantly she dodged his attack by “spinning around” exactly the moment the spear was this close to the back of her head. It was a close call but only to those that are watching from the side-lines as in reality, she sensed him well before he even used the Shadow Dash. While she’s turning around, she readies up her main scythe to pierce through the Shadow Lord, something that she does so quite effortlessly but thanks to the length of the scythe, she stabbed him in his left shoulder although in this case, it was once again planned. She’s not a beginner, I’ve said it before and that should’ve stuck on everyone’s minds but with this, I hope it has been forcefully shoved into it. She was aiming at the core, one that she sensed where it was once, he was close to her but in this case scenario, he had to be that close as it seems he has magic hiding it. The core was exactly in the middle of his shoulder and from how easy the tip of the blade was able to pierce not only through the physical armour but also the magical body, it would be correct to assume that the battle is over. Yet, reality has once again deceived those that are far to ignorant too see its cruel truth. Mere moments before the blade stabbed him, the core acted based on instincts, moving inside the body and consequently getting out of harm’s way. She noticed this when she struck him, forcing her to prolong the battle with it and it’s also correct to say that she will be forced to use more power. It would also be correct to assume that his body would “decay” or part of it would after getting stabbed by the scythe and yet, nothing of that seems to be happening. There are two reasons for this, the first one is that he’s strong enough to somewhat prevent that from happening and the other reason is his regenerative powers meaning that he’s healing through such “decay”. But while the damage is minimal, he is within her grasp. With a force that is unimaginable she once again spins around but this time around, she takes him by force on her ride while also at the same time moving her scythe in such a way that once the spin is close to being done, the Defect Lord is way up in the air as far as both her arm and scythe are physically able to do so and from there, just like a thunder is violent and loud, she smashes him into the ground with similar violence and loudness.

Bam!
The impact was extremely violent, with much more force than any Defect has shown until now and of course, even what she has “done”. There was no way to prevent this from happening but with such impact, the entire ground was crumbled, destroyed in such an aggressive manner that the entire area shook with it. A massive dust/dirt cloud emerges upon such a deadly impact but a strong shockwave follows it, one that not only destroys a little bit more of the ground around the initial area, it’s also strong enough that pushes backwards Shadows whose weight are for the low side. However, that was not the end of it as right after this barbaric display of her, she forcefully slices through the rest of his body and even the ground as she pulls her scythe backwards, clearing some of the dust/dirt cloud in that area, to then jump backwards in an attempt of gaining some distance from the Defect Lord. However, while doing so, she’s put herself in a peculiar position, one where she’s surrounded by several Shadows, all eager to devour her. Indeed, while their numbers have dwelled considerably, there still are far too many of them breathing allowing this to happen quite naturally.
Roar! Slash!
They wait for nothing, leaping at her the very instance they notice that their meal is right within the grasps of their ugly hands. The majority of them are low rank Shadows and these ones have the tendency to be physical rather than using magic to achieve their primal desires. The higher rank on the other hand, they use magic for such. And in this scenario, these higher rank Defects, they will not have pity on their fellow Defects in fact, they will exterminate them with the prey. Or that would be the case. With the main Scythe she easily slices in half all of the despicable beasts that leap at her. Her precision is something that should be noticed and then appreciated. This swipe of hers was aimed at the cores of the Shadows, ones that are ever changing thanks to their differences yet, her scythe was able to elegantly traverse the space in such a way that the blade sliced through the core of each one of them, decimating anyone that was far to unfortunate enough to be in the way. But while these six Shadows were defeated in the blink of an eye, several of them are ready to unleash their hell upon the girl. Their magic spells don’t vary too much, Shadow Ball, Shadow Flames, Shadow Bomb, not low-level spells but neither ones that will cause the end of the world. However, at close range and with the average strength of B rank, their destructive power is more than enough to leave a mark.
Hmm, I think those that have been watching the battle already understand what this will lead to.
Extinction magic noises!
With the ever-changing scythe, she slices through any spell that dares to challenge it, extinguishing anything that comes in contact with it. Nothing can survive Extinction, whether it’s magic itself or not. Whatever a magical body or a physical one. Whatever strength they might have or not. Nothing can truly withstand Extinction and in the hands of someone like this girl, it’s a phenomenon that becomes a fact, a truth of the world or even a rule of it. All of those spells were rendered useless as she effortlessly makes them so all while dancing around as that happens. Indeed, her body movements are soft, elegant and quite quiet but the reason why she seems like a ballerina showing an art to the spectators it’s because of the difference in which those spells travel the distance they have from her. Some of them are fast, others powerful, small, big and so on. Since the users themselves are different from each other, their strength ends up being the same and this is one of the main reasons for such differences, and the fact that different spells were also used then, it’s the precise hit on the head of the nail. With the spectacle done, it’s now time to clean the stage. She dashes towards the strongest Shadow near her, and once close enough, with a simple but precise down swing with a little angle to it, she cuts the neck of that thing and with it, the core present right in the middle. Another one is gone in a split second but many more surround her in the very next instance.
Indeed, she will have to increase her aggression as otherwise, it will take her too long to clean the Bubble Universe.
“Shatter and Collapse – Mirror Erosion.”
Everything around her in a 10 meters radius turns to glass. All of the Shadows present in that area, they quickly assume such form. Their magical bodies are still intact however, with this horrifying spell, they have suffered a rather cruel but well-deserved consequence. Indeed, in the very next moment-
Shattering noises!
They crumble into millions of pieces, one by one until they reach such numbers.
