Chapter 878 Don't Mess With The Saintess
-----
"She already lost her vessel, yet she keeps fighting back! Now she became some sort of specter too?!" Celeste asked.
"Just how insanely resilient are these damn god's souls?!" Zack asked.
"This is bad, Sylphy! If the fight keeps going on as it is, the fusion between your father and the heroes will run out of time!" Mist panicked.
"And we can't do anything..." Celica sighed.
"No, I think... we can do something." Sylph said. "Mom and Nepheline's presence have changed the tides of battle, there's a chance. Will you guys help me out?"
As Sylphy planned something, in the other side of the battlefield, Lara, Luck, and Aquarina constantly ran away from the tremors, while at the same time trying to remain close so Lara could assist the heroes with her spirits.
"Lara, we have to retreat further, we can't stay around this area, it is too dangerous!" Luck cried.
"But you said you would protect me, Luck!" Lara said. "I need to help the heroes... That Evil Goddess is too strong, even my little help will make the difference!"
"B-But...!" Luck felt worried. He didn't had enough confidence on his strength yet, even after having grown so strong.
"Calm down." Aquarina said, quickly summoning a large Sea Snake made out of water, which carried the two of them away. "It's gonna be fine, let's trust my parents! Sylphy's parents too, and her, of course!"
"Well, if you're so confident, I would feel bad if I didn't had some faith..." Luck sighed, smiling a bit.
The clash between literal titans continued even now. Lolth had been sliced in two, which ended multiplying her! Although both halves held a part of her powers, and were therefore weaker than her previous form, they were still dangerous, even as weakened as she was.
"SHAAAAH!"
The first half of Lolth leaped over the Rainbow Titan, this time, their blazing sword shapeshifted a long and refined spear, with the tip resembling a colorful rainbow gem.
"RAAAAH!"novE-lb/1n
The three fused heroes rushed forwards, striking Lolth's first half while she was in midair and piercing her body several times, leaving behind large wounds on her soul!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
Each strike also generated explosions of Rainbow Spiritual Flames, especially dangerous and lethal against Lolth's Divine Demonic Soul, yet her Soul Vitality and Defenses were incredible, tanking the hits while taking some damage, seemingly capable of keeping up with the Rainbow Titan with just sheer willpower.
"URGH! Those flames of yours...! I'LL TURN THEM OFF!"
She quickly turned into a slimy mass of divinity and demonic energy, evading the piercing spear strikes and moving behind the Rainbow Titan, her body quickly shapeshifted again into countless of enormous claws.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
"[Shield Form]!"
However, the Rainbow Titan wasn't slow, half of their body turned into a gust of spiraling spiritual winds and quickly transformed the spear weapon into a huge shield, which ended tanking all the hits!
"S-Shit!"
Lolth already knew what the shield would do, the moment it tanked all her hits, the energy accumulated was expulsed as a huge rainbow flame-made dragon emerged from the shield and engulfed the evil goddess' first half!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
"U-Urrgh...! I can't die...! I CAN'T!"
However, even as her body was blasted once more, and as she slowly lost more energy, she kept moving and fighting, quickly regenerating, and transforming into a gigantic, furious snake, coiling around the Rainbow Titan.
"SHAAAAH!"
"Looks like not having a vessel has made her even more resilient than before!" Allan's voice said.
"And if we cut her down, she'll multiply..." Shade's voice sighed.
"At this point, we need some way to completely get rid of her...! But do we even have enough energy for that?!" Arafunn's voice said.
The Rainbow Titan continued fighting her, grabbing her by her snake neck and then pushing her into the ground, constantly crushing her into the floor as she persistently transformed into a large spider again, covering their body with spiderwebs to restraint their movements.
"[Divine Dragon Meteor]!"
Allan had enough, channeling Agni's magic powers as the Rainbow Titan summoned a dozen meteors made of crystalized Rainbow Spirit Flames, bombarding Lolth's first half!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOOM!!!
"Urgh...! ARGH!"
Lolth was being held back by those blows, her body slowly beginning to dissipate, only for her to continue absorbing the miasma in the battlefield she left ruined, trying her best to remain alive, like a damn cockroach.
Meanwhile, in the other side of the battle, things weren't any different, Nepheline's giant form was pummeling Lolth's second half with countless stone-made fists and a huge hammer constantly trying to splatter her body, while Faylen fired arrows of light and pillars of celestial light against her.
CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOOOM!
"GRUUAAAAGH! I WON'T DIE! Fight... as HARD as you want, mortals! I am an immortal being! I cannot die so easily! As long as you don't have... DIVINITY!KAHAHAHAHA!"
Lolth's second half mocked the heroes efforts, claiming to be immortal. However, she was merely buying time, she was also almost at her limits, completely relying on her own Divine Soul's incredible resilience to survive.
She knew their power wasn't endless either, the moment the heroes transformation were to end, their formation and pace would be broken, and she would swallow all three of them alongside the children, regaining her strength to defeat the other two heroines.
This was her plan, although she had to endure!
"RAAAAAH!"
With a roar befitting of a being that has lived hundreds of thousands of years, whose willpower could not be compared with that of mortals, or even elves, her second half shapeshifted, turning into a gigantic sword made of darkness and piercing Nepheline's arms, slicing them off!
SLAAAAAAASSSH!
"UNGH?!" Nepheline stepped back, her arms were made of stone and ores, but they were still connected to her nerves, the damage hurt as much as having her real arms cut down. "You bitch!"
She quickly tried to stomp her, only for the evil goddess second half to shapeshift into a snake and evade her strikes, quickly rushing towards Faylen!
"I'll take you down first, you annoying Saintess!"
With a furious leap, she reached Faylen, only to be blasted by hundreds of beams of light!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!
"A-Argh...?!"
"Were you saying something?"
