Father was not only using the same Skills I have, Heavenly Sun, but he was unleashing it to its fullest, most mastered potential, unleashing the power of Sunshine and gathering all the sunlight he could to literally one-shot the Behemoth before it could dare to regenerate back…
He called that Spell "Celestial Nova" and I can tell, he probably used something like that against the Demon King if he was a being that surpassed even Tier 10, which is what most common folk believe is the "peak".
"GRYYYAAARRGGHHHH..!"
The Behemoth tried to fight the Celestial Nova, but it was completely futile, it began to vaporize and disappeared into ashes, and whose ashes then disintegrated to an almost subatomic level.
I can tell why my father is always careful to measure his strength whenever we are near civilians, or in the city. If he used such explosively powerful techniques in the middle of Agartha, or with us around, or even just near Agartha, everything would disappear.
Maybe he even feels happy he can go all-out for once in here, so he can properly showcase to me what he's capable of… It only wants me to make to work harder to one day become as strong, no, to surpass him…
Meanwhile, Shade was fighting against the other Behemoth, and he had just the same thing in mind. The rest of his body completely was taken over by his Abyssal Embodiment, as he was suddenly covered by a black, demonic-like armor.
"[Abyssal Demonic Embodiment]"
FLUOOOOSH!
"W-Woah…" Aquaria swallowed saliva as she saw her father's ultimate form, or something close to that.
"Once you master the power of the Abyssal Embodiment, you'll be able to fully unlock and inherit the might of our Darkage Bloodline, Aquarina." Shade said calmly, as the huge, wounded Behemoth opened its mandibles, reaching towards Shade and above to devour him.
"What our bodies can become and transform is only limited by our imagination." He said, his red eyes glowing brightly.
"ROOOOOAAAARRGHH!"
As the Behemoth's jaws grew closer, Shade's daggers merged with both of his arms, which then also merged together, transforming into a gigantic, black, and abyssal, fleshy cannon, with countless eyes, fangs, and tentacles, as huge as a whole house…
"[Abyssal Void Cannon]!"
FLUOOOSH!
A huge mass of darkness and shadows gathered within the monstrous, fleshy cannon, distorting space itself and then unleashing a devastating, all-destructive beam of utter annihilation…
TRUUUUUUUUMMMMMM…!
"GRAAAAEEERGGHHHHH!!!"
The Behemoth ended taking the beam into its enormous jaws, which quickly broke apart into pieces, and so the rest of its huge body, which collapsed into pieces!
BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!
The entire cannon beam pierced through its entire gigantic body and then left a massive hole underground… It was just as destructive as father's attack, but the beam was much more concentrated in a single spot, dealing even more devastating damage.
It was insane!
"A-Amazing…" Aquarina muttered. "Daddy's so awesome!"
Despite being an agile and dexterous assassin-type of fighter, Shade had an incredibly powerful, overwhelming attack like that… This probably means that all heroes reached a point where their strength surpassed whatever class or talents they had, and simply became weapons of mass destruction.
Maybe… this is why they fear so much to use their powers, and the reason why they hold back so much when fighting foes near cities or people they could harm. To hold and control such power from not harming others, I can understand it must be a painfully hard thing to do.
"Seems like they're done." Arafunn laughed. "And we're getting closer. But those towers, might as well destroy them before-"
RUMBLE!
And as if reading my uncle's mind, both of those towers ended doing something suspicious! Their entire crystalized bodies started melding together into a single mass of black and purple crystals, suddenly gaining arms and legs, and several huge red eyes.
Ding!
[Utilizing leftover Soul Energy and tremendous quantities of Miasma, the [Dungeon Master: Arachne] has merged both [Twin Towers of Despair] into a brand-new summon!]
A gigantic, over 100-meter-tall knight-shaped titan made of pure Demonite surged, protecting the gates leading to the dungeon's entrance, while materializing both a gigantic spear and a shield… This is most likely Arachne's last stand!
"GRUOOOOOOOOOHHH!!!"
[The [Demonite Titan Golem Knight (Tier 9)] has been summoned!]
[His very presence exudes deadly and toxic otherworldly Demonic Energy and Miasma, all foes that enter this deadly [Aura of Deadly Demonite] will have their Magic Power and Physical Strength reduced by -50%, while HP decreases by -0.5% with each second!]
[Duration: Indefinitely.]
"I see that you're growing desperate, Arachne." Arafunn sighed. "Well, you two already had the spotlight, may I take care of this little guy?"
"Sure thing." My father nodded.
"I need to rest a bit after using this much power, so be my guest." Shade smiled.
"Very well then, let's make this quick. The little Lara must be waiting for us." Arafunn smiled, his flute suddenly transforming, gathering wind spiritual energies, and growing larger and more beautiful, until it completely changed into a long flute staff!
"GRUOOHHHHH!"
Furiously guarding the Dungeon Gates, the gigantic titan made of Demonite quickly glanced at uncle Arafunn as he grew closer, its huge body moving slowly, gathering tremendous quantities of demonic energy and miasma into its huge spear, made out of the same material.
"RAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"
With furious might, the spear was launched directly towards Arafunn, so big yet so fast that it was swiftly engulfed on demonic, miasmic flames.
FLAAAAAAASSSSH!
Despite the imminent danger, Uncle calmly glanced at the scene, gathering the powers of his Magic and Spirits, especially Melodia, his strongest spirit.
"[Melody of Tempest]: [Final Act: Oblivion's Farewell]"
The winds shaped around him as if they resembled musical notes. The entire skies above started swirling. The clouds, the lightning, the winds, all of them obeyed his commands.
The skies themselves, oblivion, became one with him, as a tremendous, spiraling mass of lightning, winds, clouds, and atmospheric pressure descended from the skies.
TRUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMM…!
And then both the Demonite Spear and the huge titan were completely shattered into countless tiny pieces…
