Both warriors, Asura and Amit, surged with incredible power while radiating in auras that represented their nature; Asura radiating in red aura while Amit radiated in violet aura. They stood facing each other with several meters of distance separating them, with their expressions fixed firmly as they glared at one another.

Then Amit burst into loud laughter as he suddenly found something very funny, and when he recovered, he asked, “You? A feared figure as the Phoenix Titan? Are you imagining things or something?”

Asura merely smiled and replied, “I’ll let my actions speak for themselves.”

He clenched his fists and began activating magic spells one after another while standing still as he faced his enemy.

“Phoenix Armour Energise.”

In an instant, brilliant lights appeared out of nowhere and gathered around his body before they transformed into solid armour worn on his body which had strange symbols all over them. Amit blinked in surprise at the sudden materialisation of the armour before he smirked arrogantly.

“Heh. Ancient Armour, huh? That’s supposed to scare me? Even I can do it. Armour of Chaos.”

The moment he finished speaking, a dark light appeared around his body and transformed into solid looking armour with strange symbols on the armour surface. He stood his ground and smiled arrogantly at his enemy, who simply smiled at him.

“I don’t know about your armour, but mine boost both my power and defence by a hundred times! I’d like to see how you dodge that!”

With that shout, Amit kicked off the ground and rocketed towards him. However, his speed was so fast that he seemed to move from stationary to reaching his enemy in a split second. Only a truly powerful warrior that was equally as strong as him could have followed that movement and could have reacted to it. As such, Asura appeared to be taken by surprise at the sudden sight of his enemy appearing before him in a split second.

“Got you!” Amit shouted triumphantly as he pulled his fist back and launched it at his enemy’s gut.

The enemy’s fist came soaring towards him, but Asura suddenly grinned and matched his enemy’s movement, catching his fist in mid-flight. As he held the fist back with his arm, he flashed a grin at his surprised enemy before clenching his other hand and driving it forward to land it on his enemy’s armour-plated chest.

The impact appeared to be normal, but the force of power carried behind the blow was so powerful that Amit’s armour shattered into pieces. The next moment, a powerful gust of wind blew at him, and he was sent flying backwards with great force. The son of the God of Calamity soared through the air and bounced several times on the ground before he landed firmly on his feet, which got dragged across the ground.

A small portion of blood dripped fell on the ground as Amit lifted his head to showcase the brilliant injury he sported on his body and mouth, from which he had puked blood from. At the same time, he felt strong pain in his chest where his armour was destroyed, making him disbelieve that the simple attack from his enemy had such devastating effects on him.

“You see, I fight head on,” began saying Asura from his end as he slowly approached his wounded enemy. “No fuss. No guss. Only,” where he suddenly vanished and appeared before him as he finished saying, “complete destruction.”

Amit glared at him and reacted in an instant to punch him in the face, but Asura merely dodged around it and moved to the side. Surging with power, Amit chased after him and began continuously attempting to hit him, but with no avail. Asura continued to evade his attacks one by one with a small smile on his face, almost looking like he was mocking his opponent.

Growing angry by his opponent dodging him, he shouted, “Dammit! Stand and—gah!”

He was cut off in midsentence when he suddenly groaned. Asura had struck him without warning right in his gut with his fist. This caused his enemy to falter backwards while pressing one hand against his stomach where it hurt.

“Sorry. Were you saying something?” Asura asked casually, acting as if he did not hear his enemy’s last words.

“Don’t mock me!” Amit yelled, surging with wild power.

He began discharging blast after blast at him in a rapid succession. The blasts flew towards Asura, and he merely dodged them while slowly moving towards his opponent. A few seconds later, he suddenly vanished and reappeared right next to Amit before kicking his leg, causing his enemy to lose his footing and collapse on the ground.

The son of the God of Calamity sat on the ground, his eyes wide from the shock of realising what had happened. Just then, he heard the mocking voice of his enemy who looked over him from above.

“What’s the matter? Sitting down all of a sudden. Don’t tell me you’re tired already?”

“Bastard!”

Amit screamed, and he whirled around on the ground with his hand aimed up at his enemy before he unleashed a powerful wave of destruction. Asura was seemingly sucked into the wave as he vanished from sight, however, he reappeared standing on the other side of his where his enemy sat on the ground.

Sensing him there, Amit whirled around at him, but Asura had raised his foot and landed it firmly on the guy’s other hand. The impact was so strong that the ground cracked beneath the hand and everywhere around them.

The Demigod widened his eyes slowly as if reacting late and began screaming from the immense pain he felt in his hand. Asura moved away from his hand, and Amit raised his injured hand and clutched it gently as it ached with immense pain.

“Sorry. I didn’t see your hand was there,” said Asura with a smile on his face.

While clutching his injured hand, Amit looked up at Asura as tears formed in his eyes from the immense pain. Asura snorted in bemusement and lowered himself so that he was facing his enemy on an even level.

“You’re crying, Demigod. Why’re you crying, Demigod? Don’t tell me you’re scared, Demigod?”

“I’m not scared!” Amit yelled at him.

“Good,” replied Asura simply, and he punched the guy in the face.

The impact blasted the Demigod off into the air, and he soared for several meters before he came crashing down on the ground. Then he picked himself up and glared at his enemy, who was strolling towards him casually as if he was out for a walk.

“It’s disappointing that you’re such a weakling,” remarked Asura casually with a grin on his face.

The son of the God of Calamity became extremely mad because of this, and he began to power up to the maximum and charged at him with the intention of destroying him for good. As such, the two began engaging in close combat fighting style, throwing fists at him and kicking him while also using energy blasts. Despite his efforts, Asura evaded them all very easily and continued to smile at him with a look as if he was looking at a bug.

“How can you be so strong?!” He demanded upon backing away from him after being hit for the umpteenth time.

“No. Ask yourself why you’re so weak,” responded Asura with a bored look on his face.

“Damn you!” Amit screamed out of spite and rage. He placed a hand on his chest and roared, “Death by Destruction!”

In an instant, a deadly aura began emitting from him and it spread everywhere. Every single person in the vicinity shuddered and felt a chilling cold nothing like they had ever felt before. It was an icy cold that was freezing to the senses and crushed their spirits with great depression and hopelessness. Even Erza, who was shielded by the Elemental Coated Armour sphere of protection, felt the immense crushing weight of that power and shuddered.

“What power is that?!” She exclaimed, looking towards the battle that was going on between Asura and Amit.

The Demigod rose to his feet and glared menacingly at Asura, who seemed to have closed his eyes and remained frozen to the spot. He slowly walked towards him and raised his hand in the air while priming it with his next magic spell.

“Death by Extermination.”

In an instant, a deadly black ball of destruction formed in his hand, which began to pulsate wildly around because of its tremendous power. As soon as he reached Asura, he glared up at him and was shocked to see that he appeared to have had his eyes open, but was looking down at the ground for some reason.

“So much for all your bravado, you’ve been taken out by this powerful technique, and now… forfeit your life!”

With that, Amit plunged his hand straight at his enemy’s chest with the intention of utterly destroying him with the pulsating black ball of destruction. However, before he could make it, his arm was suddenly grabbed by Asura, who lifted his head and looked down at him with great annoyance in his eyes.

“What?!” Amit exclaimed in shock, not believing that this man was able to move freely while the Death by Destruction was active. “How can you be moving?! How?!”

Asura ignored his demands and said, “You certainly know how to steal things, right?” and he slapped him across the face.

There was a loud ringing sound of the slap that Amit received against his cheek. The next thing he knew, he was lifted off his feet as he was blasted sideways from the blow, where he flew for several seconds before coming to a crashing halt. He lay there, dazed and bewildered by what just happened. Then he moved his right arm to his cheek where it stung and felt the skin feel strange from the impact it just received.

“Honestly, you call that a Death by Destruction?” Asura asked, and he turned to face him in shock. “Let me show you what the real Death by Destruction feels like!” And so, he clapped his hands together and glared menacingly at him as he said, “Death by Destruction!”

In an instant, a massive wave of blackness spread in all directions and seemed the shroud the world in darkness. Amit continued to stare at him, and his eyes slowly widened to the maximum as he was shocked by the sight that beheld him.

In the darkness stood a man whose aura was bursting forth in all directions and it felt lethal to the senses. His eyes flashed dangerously through the darkness and made the Demigod feel a sense of destruction that he had never felt before. He felt a though death itself approaching him, slowly and steadily, with no sense of rush or hurry; it slowly came closer to him with the intention of utterly destroying him.

As the fear settled in him, Amit let out a terrible scream of fright as he was completely overwhelmed by the aura that Asura was hitting him with. In the next second, the Demigod surged with power and rocketed into the air as if to escape from this terrible foe, whom he felt was going to destroy him without a shred of mercy.

Asura watched him flying away and shrugged his shoulders indifferently as if he did not care. However, he heard the fairy’s voice inside his voice complain.

“What are you doing?! Go after him! He’s escaping!”

“Don’t worry. Escape is the last thing on his mind right now,” said Asura with a smile as he looked up.

At that moment, they sensed an immeasurable power gathering in the sky above where he stood. Looking up, he saw that the Demigod had reaching a great height and had both of his arms held up above his head as he gathered a massive amount of energy for a decisive blow.

“You dare to shame me?! You dare to mock me?! Me, the son of the God of Calamity?! How dare you?! I’m going to destroy this world!” Amit roared down at them.

Everyone who heard him was in shock and began panicking as they did not know what to do about it. However, they were stunned when they heard the reply that the Phoenix Titan, to them as the Solaris Hero, gave to him.

“If you’re going to destroy the world, then hurry up. I’m getting bored, weakling.”

There was a moment of stunned silence in the surrounding environment. Even the wind seemed to stop blowing for a moment as all existing things were appalled by his reply.

“You… bastard!!!” Amit roared in great madness.

Even the fairy was shocked as she exclaimed in his mind, “W-W-W-What is wrong with you?!”

Asura chuckled at her reaction and said, “Call it my confidence.”

“To hell with your confidence!” The fairy exclaimed, and she began desperately calling for Lakshman. “Lucky! Wake up already! Your past-self is a dangerous fiend!”

Asura chuckled and said, “Calling me a fiend is a bit much.”

Just then, he heard his enemy roaring high above and looked up to see the gathered ball of destruction pulsate violently as he readied to launch it down at his enemy.

“Die, you bastard! Die!” Amit screamed in an insane desire to destroy his enemy without a shred of mercy.

As he screamed the words, he swung his arms down. At the same time, the huge ball of destruction began descending on the world with the clear intention of destroying it for good. Everyone watching it were, but Asura stood firmly and looked up at it with great confidence.

“Screaming like a baby. How silly?” He said out loud and let out light chuckle.

Then his eyes flashed with power as he looked up at the descending ball of destruction before he surged with power and kicked off the ground to fly at it. He soared towards it at high speed and upon reaching it, he extended his right hand out and used the spell that was sure to destroy the attack for good.

“Maga Distrab!”

In an instant, there was a sudden surge of wind around him before the ball of destruction seemed to decompress on itself before vanishing in a puff of particles of light. The son of the God of Calamity stared at his attack being nullified with such ease in shock and slowly shook his head in disbelief.

“It can’t be…! My attack…! My strongest attack…!” He muttered weakly.

“You and your anger management issues,” said Asura as he soared up to hover on the same level as him.

Amit snorted and looked at him, grinning like a mad man as he said, “Kill me, bastard, but I swear, my father will come hurting you down, and he’ll destroy everything you own, everything you care about, everything that makes you what you are!”

Asura remained silent as he pondered about the words he just heard before he smiled and said, “I see. In that case, let’s take this conversation to a private space, shall we?”

“What?” Amit asked, looking confused. “What are you—?”

Before he could complete his question, Asura clapped his hands and said, “Spirit Transition.”

In an instant, a blinding flash of light occurred that caused everyone to cover their eyes as everything became white.
