Thor's powerful magic was devastating Maria's soul and Root wouldn't be able to resist much either. The situation was growing more perilous as time went by, and things would become even worse once the power of Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine ran out.

However, darkness emerged from within Maria's internal soul, Thor panicked as he saw her soul emerging from within his own lightning, as if she was gaining a new power despite being about to be completely disintegrated by his divine might.

FLAAAAAASH!

"This Darkness…! Eh?! Don't tell me…!" Thor began to panic.

He saw an enormous quantity of darkness erupting from within Maria's disintegrating body.

"She's evolving?!"

Thor grew restless, quickly imbuing his powers into his own hands and deciding to finish her off before she were to do any funny business. His thunder gathering on tremendous and overwhelming quantities.

"I won't let you stand up, heretic monster!" He roared with the fury of a God, his lightning gathering into enormous quantities which made a gigantic storm atop of his body. A sick smile emerging on his lips as the summoned lightning continued to grow stronger…!

"[Thunder's Judgement]!!!"

TRUUUUUUMMMMMMMMM….!

A massive quantity of thunder fell from the skies, clashing against Lucifer's and company's attacks, completely devastating them with overwhelming power, and then shattering Root's defenses, reaching Maria, who was standing in front of everyone to protect them!

CRAAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHHHHHH…!

Maria's entire soul was devastated, the divine thunder consuming every single particle of her soul as she completely disintegrated. The desperation of the situation becoming even worse as the shockwave of the thunder attack alone sent everyone flying into the skies.

"Hahahaha… It is finished! You're done for… Just like that! Although you ate two fragments of my brother, you were still merely a mortal-level ghost… You've been purified from this world, be thankful!" Thor laughed, ignoring everything else but his victory.

"Who said that?"

"Huh?"

Thor stopped laughing, suddenly looking down. His light-made eyes filled with a sudden sense of panic as horror rushed through every sense of his spiritual vessel.

Standing in the massive crater created by Thor's attack there was a tall woman with beautiful pale white skin, as pale as candle wax, yet her body seemed overflowing with darkness, so much that it made her feel like she was born anew… This darkness shaped itself as her brand-new dress, while her eyes glowed bright red, defiantly glancing back at the God of Thunder.

"W-What?! This… This can't be…" Thor lost his own composure. He was sure to have unleashed all of his powers! Yet… why? Why was it not working? Why was she not exterminated?

Unless…

"Y-You evolved then…!" Thor smiled. "Well, I will have to just imbue a bit more of my divine power, that's all there is to it!" Thor said with a defiant smile, as he quickly imbued the power of his divine abilities into his hands, unleashing an even grander thunder this time.

"[Divine Judgement]!"

FLAAAAASH!

Thunder gathered at insane quantities atop the skies, Thor smiled evilly as he gathered this power, only for Maria to glance back at him, while still getting used to her brand-new powers.

CLAAAAAASH!

The thunder fell mercilessly once more attempting to delete Maria from existence itself. Yet…

Maria calmly analyzed the lightning, as she brought the powers she had attained, channeling them into her hands, while her body continued growing larger… and larger… and larger.

"W-What with that size?!" Thor was surprised by Maria's growing size, only for her to suddenly summon the Mirage of a Full Moon, pointing it at Thor directly.

"[Eternal Moon Mirror]"

She conjured a powerful new magic. The moon resembled a beautiful reflecting mirror as it took Thor's direct attack without problems.

FLAAAAASH!

The moon-shaped mirror began absorbing all of this energy, and then, it reflected the light back at Thor.

"Why don't you take it all back, bastard?"

TRUUUUUUMMMMM…!

The lightning reached Thor, this time, turning completely black as it gained the darkness element from within Maria's magic and mana, hitting Thor directly!

"You're… reflecting my attack?!"

BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM…!

Thor was completely consumed by the black lightning before he could even comprehend the situation he was being thrown into. In mere seconds, he found his Spirit Vessel being completely consumed by his own attack!

CLAAAAAASSSSHHHH!!!

Barely managing to survive, his vessel found himself over a massive crater within the dungeon's boundaries, his entire body slowly beginning to dissipate.

"S-She evolved…! T-This incredible power… What is it!?" Thor wondered, incapable of being able to comprehend the powers that Maria had now acquired through her newest evolution.

FLASH!

"You seem surprised. Honestly speaking, I am too."

"Huh?!"

Thor was once more shocked, Maria had appeared right in front of him, standing above the crater and glancing down at him as if he were the insect now.

"W-What sort of monster have you evolved into?! Even S Ranked Beings wouldn't be able to reflect my divine power… with such ease!" Thor roared back, quickly standing back up as countless rays of lightning rained over Maria.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!

However, Maria concentrated herself, gathering her near endless Mana as she summoned a ring made entirely of mirages made of beautiful moons in their different phases, which rotated around her and reflected the rays like powerful mirrors!

"Take it all back."

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLAAASH!

The thunder was not only reflected but enhanced and "corrupted" by Maria's own element of darkness and death, which directly damaged the vessel of Thor instead of being easily absorbed back into his elemental body.

"T-This is impossible!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOOM!

Thor tried to run away, to evade Maria's furious onslaught, but it was impossible, each ray of darkness pierced a part of his body, completely disintegrating it, in mere seconds, he found himself covered on holes…

"G-Gahh…?!"

BAAAM!

His body fell into the floor once more, as Maria approached him, glancing down at him.

"I suppose Ymir must be happy now."

"Ymir?!"

Thor felt flabbergasted, the moment he saw Maria's body suddenly exude an enormous, overwhelming aura… such an aura which he had only felt when fighting Titans!

A gigantic palm made of darkness started to fall from the skies, squeezing Thor like a bug.

"What do you mean Ymir…?! He's… dead…!"

CLAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSHHHHHHH!!!!

Before Thor could even comprehend his situation, his Spiritual Vessel was completely destroyed.
