As Kireina and Rimuru fought their respective Death Titans, there were still three more left! How would it be possible for her family and allies to actually handle three of these monsters? Well, by working together!
Of course, the level of power required for such a feat wouldn't be anything but ridiculous. The strength of these death titans led by the Necrotic Death Lords was incredible, their might and prowess phenomenal, and they were even tanking the constant attacks of Nova and Azure like nothing!
If they wanted to win against them, they would need to combine their power and pierce through these monsters' defenses to even damage them, the thing was, they were three, if they were all fight the three at the same time, the trio would help one another easily and it would become increasingly hard to defeat them.
Because of this they had to separate these Death Titans if they ever wanted to have a chance at winning against them! Perfectly knowing this situation, Kireina had commanded her family and allies to do so, and Brontes, Zehe, and Nesiphae took the task of separating the large group into three groups, which would all gang on one Death Titan at a time, moving them away from one another…
The teams were as follows:
Zehe Team, Ryo, Redgaria, Sapphira, Truhan, Celica.
Brontes Team, Vudia, Ailine, Kaguya, Wagyu, Kekensha.
Nesiphae Team, Amiphossia, Nirah, Nereid, Sakura, Nanako.
The rest of the party had stayed with Mammon as Mammon had actually forced them to only go with this quantity, so Kireina had to cherry pick them out, sadly. However, this was a Mammon's request, so there was nothing she could do over it. however, with each team having six, it was more than enough for them to be able to put into danger the Death Titans.
The first team, Zehe's team, was already confronting their target. The Necrotic Death Lord within the Death Titan seemed to be an ironic character as he constantly mocked them for their stupid and colorful appearances, even more as they were all colorful and had lower divinity levels, they were not supreme gods yet.
"Bwahaha! You dare try to actually get on my way, you filthy little great deity-level trash?! Kireina is really a stupid and overconfident idiot to think a bunch of clowns such as you can even hope to defeat me, Grakakakh, the Bone Bender, the Flesh Raiser, the Phantom Soul, the Death King-"
"You're really an overconfident idiot, aren't you?" sighed Redgaria.
"I-Idiot?! You dare call me idiot!?" asked Grakakakh, he was a rather charismatic skeleton!
"My master please let me slice him up with the power of ice!" said Sapphira at his side.
"Come on Redgaria, don't take all the fight for you." Said Truhan.
"Our father had become rather cocky too." Giggled Celica.
"Father?! Don't call me like that, I might had created you from the Magic Mud but that doesn't mean I am your father…" sighed Redgaria.
"Indeed, my father is Herbell anyways." Said Zehe.
"You prefer that skeleton before me as a father?!" asked Redgaria.
"Didn't you said we shouldn't call you father?" asked Zehe.
"Well, even then…!" muttered Redgaria.
"I refuse to call this creep my grandfather. I am fine with Herbell being my grandpa, Herbell is my grandpa." Said Ryo. He was raised by Herbell quite a lot, and remember being taught magic by him since a young age, he meets him several times per week too, so he is way closer with his skeleton grandfather.
Redgaria for some reason felt like he was being compared to Herbell and being told he was worse, which ignited the spark of rivalry on his childish mind, which had matured in many aspects except in a few others.
"H-How can you say that, Ryo?!" cried Redgaria. He had been recently trying to bond with his grandson actually, but he had not been able to.
"Master I think you're making yourself look like a clown, just like the skelly-face said!" said Sapphira while giggling viciously.
Grakakakh looked at the scene with his empty eyes wide open, he couldn't believe how relaxed they were in front of the very incarnation of death which he had fused with to form the Death Titan!
"H-How dare you… ignore meeeeee?!" roared Grakakakh, as he rushed forward, enhancing the entire Death Titan with the power of Necrotic Energy and his Dao of Necromancy and Undead!
However, everyone quickly looked at him as suddenly, several strange beasts were summoned at the side of each combatant! They were actually waiting for him to charge at them, which would actually expose weak spots to abuse!
"W-What? That's Dao… the Dao of Summoning? It just a fragment yet they can already summon a Maxima summon each one! U-Unbelievable!" said Grakakakh in shock, however, he quickly ignited his entire Death Titan with the power of Death as he unleashed a massive ray of death, a Death Cannon!
"No matter…! You're all already dead! I'll make sure to convert all of you in some good Undead puppets for later! Gyahahaha!"
FLAAAASSHH!
A massive beam of darkness spiraled across the sky as it reached the party, but Zehe acted rather swiftly, as she showed off the power of her Magic which she had polished all this time, Shadows emerged from her entire being as space and time were distorted by the endless obscurity of its void-like nature.
The Maxima Summon with her quickly showed itself, resembling a beautiful…!
"OOOOOHHH!!!"
It was actually a gigantic sphere of darkness, which quickly opened several crimson-red eyes across its body, with many tentacles around itself, it was like a strange creature that couldn't be properly discerned… according to experts, the creature a person summons through the Maxima Summon Technique within the Dao of Summoning is always fitting of that person's personality and attributes…
And this entity was pure darkness and shadows!
FLASH!
A massive all-devouring mass of shadows was conjured by Zehe and her Maxima Summon, which was qualified in race name as a Black Star!
BOOOOMMM!!!
The massive attack made by the Death Cannon clashed against the barrier made of shadows, shattering everything around momentarily, even spacetime!
