Chapter 206: 206: Transformation Scene Is Mandatory

After receiving Yusuke’s blessing, all the girls had undergone a drastic transformation in terms of strength. Even without counting the new skills they had gained, the boost from "Master’s Blessing Lv3" alone granted them a 100% increase in their stats, effectively doubling their overall power.

More importantly, it had raised all of their original skills by four whole levels. This included even insignificant skills such as cooking, as well as far more important ones such as... blowjob.

A single level increase in a skill was often enough to elevate a person’s battle power several times over, especially when their abilities were already at a high level. Take Venelana as an example. Her control and mastery over Destruction were already exceptional.

It would be extremely difficult for her to raise further, even if she trained for decades.

Raising it by four levels pushed that control to an entirely new height, something unprecedented. At this point, she might have reached the same level as Sirzechs in terms of control over Destruction, if not surpassed him.

Grayfia as well. In the past, she had been slightly weaker than Serafall, but now, just the 100% boost to her stats alone was enough for her to overwhelm the female Maou completely.

Another example was Rias. In the past, she couldn’t even hope to defeat someone like Riser with her own strength. Her control over Destruction had been crude, limited to blunt applications like firing raw masses of power. But now, her control had improved several times over. If she were to face Riser again, she would crush him effortlessly in no time.

"Crazy bitch!" Yubelluna cursed loudly as she raised both hands above her head. A bright orange magic circle expanded in front of her, and a massive column of Fire Dragon Slayer Magic erupted outward to collide with the incoming golden spheres.

"This old hag needs a good disciple," Eleonora chuckled darkly, lifting both her arms as well. She unleashed her own Fire Dragon Slayer Magic to intercept Katerea’s barrage.

Although every one of them had gained a significant boost in power recently, they knew better than to underestimate their opponent. No matter how trashy and weak Katerea seemed, she was still an Ultimate Class Devil. None of them could defeat her in a one-on-one fight. They would need to take her seriously and work together if they wanted to bring her down.

The other girls, Sona, Tsubaki, Rias, and Isabella, also stepped in, using their powers to block and neutralize the incoming attacks.

BOOM! BOOM!

Sparks of magic collided violently and exploded like fireworks, lighting up the night sky before canceling each other out. Thick smoke rose into the air, and when it finally cleared, it revealed Katerea’s twisted, furious face glaring down at the girls below her.

"Impressive! You do have some skills to be so arrogant!" she roared, "But! If you think that you can defeat me, Katerea Leviathan, with just that, then you are dreaming!"

She spread her arms wide, and behind her, numerous golden magic circles materialized and began rotating rapidly. From them, a much stronger wave of golden demonic power erupted, firing down at everyone below with terrifying intensity.

An Ultimate Class Devil was strong enough to erase a city with a single attack. Someone like Katerea, if she unleashed her full power, could destroy a small country like Japan in a short time.

Fortunately, the barrier surrounding them was strong enough to withstand her attacks.

"This is why I hate these old hags!" Akeno clicked her tongue in clear disgust. "They have so much groundless pride, even more than the snobbish nobles."

She really couldn’t stand this old slut shouting and crying hysterically as if they had killed her parents. She was so old, yet she couldn’t even keep her cool, acting like a six year old throwing a tantrum.

The entire existence and argument of the Old Satan Faction boiled down to one thing, that they were descendants of the original Four Satans, and therefore, they believed they deserved to rule the devils simply because of their bloodline. They had no real abilities or achievements to compete with the new Satans and the current government. Instead, they resorted to terrorism.

They had contributed absolutely nothing to the Underworld. On the contrary, they had only worked to destabilize it, yet they still demanded to rule over it.

"Let’s finish this before Yusuke finds out!" Rias spoke as she rose into the air along with the other girls. She spread her arms to either side, and two crimson magic circles appeared. Black red lightning crackled around her as her hands filled with Destruction. She clenched her fists, compressing the power into small, dense spheres before hurling them toward Katerea.

Tsubaki took a deep breath. A magic circle formed before her as she unleashed Fire Dragon’s Roar, a dense stream of blazing fire surging straight toward Katerea. Ravel, Isabella, Yubelluna, and Eleonora followed suit, releasing their own attacks in unison.

On the other hand, Akeno lifted her hand high above her head. A dense, thick column of Holy Lightning, multiple times stronger than the one she had used to kill the unfortunate fallen angel, descended from the sky.

Holy Lightning was a special type of lightning that combined light and lightning together, making it extremely lethal against devils, who had a natural weakness to light. She had inherited this power from her father, but she had rarely used it until she nearly died at the hands of Walburga. Only then did she begin to accept and wield her father’s powers.

But that did not mean she had forgiven her father or even accepted her bloodline. She still hated him. However, power was power. Even if it came from him, it now belonged to her, and she would use it without hesitation to protect her man, Yusuke, and herself.

After all, the only one allowed to hurt her was Yusuke. He was the only one permitted to choke her, spank her, step on her, and pound her into submission.

Sona used Holy Power to strike at Katerea. She was the one with the least attacking strength among them, but she had never been someone who relied on brute force. She preferred strategy. In a situation like this, against a Devil such as Katerea, Holy Power was far more effective than simply using something stronger, like Fire Dragon Slayer Magic.

BOOMM! BOOM!!

Rumble!

A massive explosion, many times more powerful than the previous ones, shook the entire barrier. Powerful shock waves burst outward and spread everywhere. The heat waves generated by the Fire Dragon Slayer Magic caused the temperature inside the barrier to rise rapidly.

"Agh!!!"

"What is this?!"

"I don’t want to die! Katerea-sama, save me!"

"Onii-chan save me!"

"Yamete kudasai, ahh~!"

The powerful shockwaves from the clash above reached the terrorists below, who were still desperately fighting against Murayama, Aika, Raynare, and Kalawarna.

The moment the shockwaves hit them, the weaker fighters were sent flying through the air, coughing up blood, while others simply passed out on the spot from the overwhelming force.

They were already suffering from varying degrees of injuries. Even if they had been in peak condition, getting hit by shockwaves from an Ultimate Class battle would have been enough to put them in a sorry state. Now, it was even worse.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

But who would care about the cries for help of mere side characters?

Katerea didn’t even spare them a single glance. Her twisted smile had completely vanished, and her already distorted face contorted into something truly ugly and hideous.

More and more explosions erupted around her as she attacked frantically without pause, pouring out wave after wave of golden demonic power in a crazed barrage. However, the more she watched the women she had deemed inferior easily blocking her attacks and meeting her gaze with clear disdain and mockery, the more she felt her sanity slipping away.

She was extremely proud of her bloodline and had always carried an extreme sense of pride and superiority because of it. However, as she grew up and discovered that she had not inherited the Leviathan Clan’s Sea Serpent of the End, a deep sense of inferiority began to take root inside her. Over time, that inferiority twisted into something dark and hideous.

Just as much as she was proud of her bloodline, she felt equally inferior because of it. To hide this fragile side deep within her, she displayed an even more outrageous arrogance and pride.

"What is taking you so long? All of you acting together, and you still couldn’t deal with a small fry devil?" Suddenly, Xenovia tossed aside the last female devil and glanced upward with a smirk, taunting Katerea.

"It is not that we are slow, but you guys who are fast," Tsubaki flung her long hair behind her shoulder and answered with a graceful smile. She then glanced back at Katerea and added, "You were so lucky to get ’help’ from her."

She was referring to how Katerea had recklessly attacked without any care for her subordinates, which in turn helped Xenovia and the other women finish them off much faster.

"Right, Xenovia, you can’t be this rude. You need to express your gratitude when someone helps you!" Irina patted Xenovia’s back a few times and spoke with a bright smile. She waved her sword at Katerea and said cheerfully, "Thank you, Devil-chan. As thanks, we will make sure to give you a painless death!"

"Amen!"

Crack!

"..." Katerea’s teeth clenched so tightly that they emitted an audible cracking sound. Thick, bulging veins throbbed visibly on her forehead as she stared down at the twintailed girl below with pure hatred burning in her eyes.

For some reason, the sight of those twintails reminded her of that slut Serafall. Their images began to overlap in her mind until it felt as if she was facing Serafall herself, mocking her with that same infuriating, condescending smile.

"You are right. I will show her my most sincere gratitude," Xenovia planted the blade of her sword firmly into the ground and spoke with a serious expression. Suddenly, a faint blue aura began to emit from her entire body. At first, it was weak and subtle, but it quickly grew much stronger, swaying visibly in the air around her.

Swoosh!

The blue aura suddenly coalesced and erupted violently, enveloping her completely and unleashing a powerful shock wave that pushed Irina, who was standing right beside her, back several steps.

When the light finally faded, Xenovia stood revealed in her transformed state. A vibrant blue aura continued to sway and crackle around her body. Her short blue hair had grown significantly longer, flowing down her back, while her eyes glowed with a sharp, intense blue light.
