Borunidhan glanced with horror as his Domain was shattered into pieces by the angered Veronica, the illusions of false treasures and the utmost desires of her heart were not enough to deceive her!

"How can you be able to break through my Domain?!" asked Borunidhan.

"Perhaps you can deceive even some Gods, but my soul is clearly not a normal one… But I guess you wouldn't even understand!" said Veronica, destroying the domain within seconds, shattering it into pieces, and rushing towards Borunidhan at a fast speed!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Veronica sliced and crushed the phantom and slippery tentacles that attacked her from within Borunidhan's divine soul, causing severe damage to God's soul!

"Argh! Y-Youu…! Divine Treasury!"

Borunidhan suddenly conjured a new technique, generating countless treasures around him made of gold, and throwing them as gigantic projectiles against Veronica!

However, Veronica smiled confidently and filled with fervent resolve and calm anger, as she used her claws and soul to slice and crush the attacks, running back at Borunidhan once more and punching him several times!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"UNNGAAGGH…! Y-Youu!"

Borunidhan suddenly conjured another illusion, the people that Veronica saw, using them as shields to deceive her!

Knowing that she had doubted at first, she might doubt again!

Flash!

Suddenly, two little demon girls with charcoal-colored skin and orange eyes appeared, glaring directly at Veronica's eyes.

"Veronica… why?"

"Why did you let us die?"

"Ah…! Tsk! You're not real!" Veronica only flinched for a second, slicing through the illusions at last, however, that single second was enough for the crafty Demon God to fly away and make some distance!

"Heheh… It seems that you're quite traumatized by the events of the past, huh? This is the difference between pretenders like you and true Demon Gods such as me, we don't need emotions such as sorrow, regret, or anything of the sort! You are weak! WEAK! GYAHAHA!"

Borunidhan laughed wickedly as he conjured more illusions around Veronica, but Veronica gritted her teeth as she destroyed them, one by one, nearing the slippery god once more!

"Nngh… Y-You're not flinching anymore?!" asked Borunidhan, realizing that he had now just pissed Veronica even more.

"I am really fucking pissed right now… I am not falling anymore for your shit, Borunidhan!" roared Veronica, her entire body showed its true colors as her soul shapeshifted and extended around like a mantle of shadows, groaning monstrously as she showed him how grotesque she was!

"See?! Do you want to see what I am really?! Do you want to see how much of a monster I can be? Then feel free to see the abyss!" laughed Veronica, her entire soul flashing with deep darkness, her formless soul resembled a malicious specter with many tentacles and claws, and hundreds of crimson eyes spread all around, alongside a long and deformed jaw.

"NNGNH?! W-What?! So this is the thing I felt! Y-You're really… What kind of soul…?!" Borunidhan groaned in horror, as he saw Veronica's soul which was way more grotesque than his! It seemed as if she was made of stitched parts of all the souls she had eaten, Mason, Natalia, and Lucas's souls were also there, cut into pieces and spread around, their arms and torsos twisting grotesquely!

"I won't die by a mere pretender!" Borunidhan roared, giving himself some courage as he evaded Veronica's soul attacks, as he used his tentacles to slash and slap her, but they were all sliced apart by her soul claws!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

No matter how hard he tried to attack her, Veronica was simply superior in everything! The only redeeming grace that he had was his swiftness and the ability to evade, which was already running low!

This was because Borunidhan was using his divinity to give Veronica "bad fortune", which also gave him the power to be fortunate and evade always on time!

But even such an ability had its limits, and as Veronica kept growing more angered, he was getting cornered by her ever-growing soul!

His shower of projectile treasures was easily reflected or tanked by Veronica's immense health points bar, she seemed like the Boss here instead of him!

"Just how much Health does she possess?!" wondered Borunidhan, as a Demon God, he had disconnected himself from the System through his ascension, so he was no longer able to see his own Health, Skills, or Stats, but knew about such terminology.

Veronica roared, coating her phantasmal claws with her metal, and beginning to storm Borunidhan's Divine Realm, making everything tremble!

"Stop! Don't shake my divine realm!" cried Borunidhan, as he desperately tried to attack Veronica with his brainwashing powers, but her mind simply didn't respond… and in fact…!

"Haha! I was waiting for you to do this!" laughed Veronica, as she activated the inner Abyss Ability within her Soul, which had evolved ever since she first acquired it, becoming Deep Abyss!

By activating such an Ability in time through the use of Mana, she managed to even bounce back a powerful technique to her mind such as the one Borunidhan used to entrap people inside an illusory domain!

FLASH!

Suddenly, Borunidhan felt trapped in a strange space!

"What? Where… am I?! This…"

The Demon God glanced at his surroundings, as he found endless piles of treasures… However, from within it, he found the greatest treasure he had ever wanted, power!

Like any other cliché Demon God, Borunidhan desired power above everything else! He wanted power! Power and more power!

He saw this power in the form of the corpse of Bestellen, which he consumed and acquired his powers, becoming the greatest and strongest God in all of Kritias!

"Hahah! HAHAHAHA! Yes, I did it! I won!"

"Fool…" muttered Veronica.

Unaware that he had been trapped on his own technique, Borunidhan foolishly laughed while being completely deceived, the technique itself beginning to slowly warp his mind as his soul was being devoured by Veronica!

She extended her soul like a mantle, all around the delusional Borunidhan, as she began to crush him with her abyssal maws!

"Nnngh?! W-What is going on?! NNGAAGH…! W-WAIT! UAAAGGGHHH…! GRRYYYAAAAAAHHHHH…!"

"Goodbye, Borunidhan!" roared Veronica, without letting the God escape from her abyssal soul stomach, she crushed him and consumed him through Soul Break!

Crack, crack!

CRASH!

Like fine glass being shattered, Borunidhan was completely torn into tiny pieces which were then assimilated into Veronica's soul, ending once and for all!

Veronica quickly gained a large boost in power, as Borunidhan's memories rushed into her mind, gaining a lot of precious information she was not able to completely learn before from the ones she had eaten!

Thanks to her Soul developing alongside her Gluttony, she was now even able to eat other memories in great detail, much more than before.

By eating Borunidhan's soul ad acquiring his memories, she learned about the whereabouts of the other three Demon Gods, even where their Divine Realms exactly were placed!

Borunidhan Divine Realm quickly disappeared, as Veronica appeared hovering in midair above Seashore, Kireina at her side congratulated.

"Congrats! You did a good job. I wish I could have been there, but I am too weak to fight any Demon God, and only you could really enter thanks to your special Skill. This guy's Divine Realm had a powerful pressuring effect, he would have crushed my soul without even realizing it…" sighed Kireina.

"You helped me a lot in opening the portal and all, thanks a lot. Now, let's go! Ervas will be waiting for me there!" said Veronica.

"Alright!"

Veronica and Kireina flew through the skies, rushing to their next destination!
