As Zatiel saw the physical stats of the Darkness Poison Duke, a look of realization appeared on his face.
'No wonder this Pit Fiend can face both I and Eon Six at the same time despite his horrible wounds and the damage to his soul. His physical might is incredible for a Hollow Sun Domain Stage existence. He must have obtained a lucky chance related to his body.'
The Neo-Demon knew that even a Peak Hollow Sun Domain Stage Demodand would find it hard to develop a single stat above 18 points, much less 19.
Despite the data depicting the monstrous physical might of the Pit Fiend, Zatiel smiled since it also told him how to win this fight.
His eyes narrowed as he analyzed the information due to the Darkness Poison Duke's action.
A massive fist moved behind the Pit Fiend's back and aimed at the Neo-Demon.
Zatiel removed the death sword and put it as a shield before covering himself with his wings.
The Darkness Poison Duke's attack was flawed and lacked energy, but still managed to send the Neo-Demon flying away while puking blood.
Without giving his enemy a moment to rest, Eon Six flashed toward the Devil Duke immediately after the punch struck Zatiel. Time Essence covered his body, enhancing his speed.
A peculiar light appeared in the Devil Duke's eyes as he saw Eon Six coming toward his left side and felt the invisible force striking his soul, making it impossible for him to dodge the ax.
Eon Six immediately appeared in front of the Pit Fiend's body and hacked with all his strength toward the left shoulder.
He no longer had the assistance of the red aura, and most of his physical energy was gone, so the Supernova Race man thought it would be challenging to give the final cut to the Pit Fiend's arm.
However, to Eon Six surprise, the ax severed the muscles and bone with ease. In an instant, the left arm separated from the rest of the Darkness Poison Duke's body.
'Even if our previous attacks harmed the tissues, I should not have been able to cut it with such ease.'
Confusion appeared in the Supernova Race man's eyes, but it vanished when he saw the right fist charged with an incredible power coming at him.
The Devil Duke gave up the useless extremity and lured Eon Six close to him before unleashing an attack that carried every ounce of energy left inside him.
Such cunningness and ruthlessness to himself gave the Pit Fiend the chance to land a deadly attack on the Supernova Race man.
A smile appeared in the Darkness Poison Duke as he saw his fist getting closer and closer to Eon Six. After getting rid of one, fighting the other would be much easier.
The plan was great and the attack perfect, but the Darkness Poison Duke was not the only one with a quick and ruthless mind.
Eon Six's eyes glowed with great resolution. Just as the Pit Fiend's deadly punch was about to land, he manipulated his energies and poured as much as he could into his left arm before making it explode!
The blast crashed into the fist, weakening its momentum and moving Eon Six's body. The blow still connected with his body, but the power diminished significantly, and while he felt all his inner organs tearing apart, his resolution saved his life.
Immense fury appeared in the Darkness Poison Duke's face when he saw that the Supernova Race's man managed to survive. Even Duke Krior would have suffered injuries with that attack.
Things only got worse as he felt the many forces inside him starting to go wild. That tiny amount of energy was the only thing stopping the many Law Essences inside him from wreaking havoc in his body and soul.
Before he could even think of using the might of his True Soul to help his body, a Soul Eradicator struck him.
The Devil Duke lost awareness of his surroundings for less than a millisecond. By the time he regained control, a dark sword with a flaming edge had struck his neck.
Zatiel had completely given up on healing his wounds. He transformed all the Death Armor's death force and Life Overlord's life force into power for the death sword.
Usually, an individual's neck was weak, but the Neo-Demon felt immense resistance as he attempted to cut the Pit Fiend's head off. Still, he poured everything he had into the death sword and kept pushing forward, taking advantage of the Devil Duke's paralysis.
The Darkness Poison Duke's body did not move, and even his sight was limited, but he could feel everything.
'I need to hold on. This rat's Soul Origin is running out, and after regaining control over my body, I will be able to kill him.' There was hope in the Pit Fiend's mind that he could still win this fight, but panic assaulted his heart when he perceived someone else striking his neck.
Eon Six's injuries were severe, but he still managed to stand up and cut toward the Devil Duke's neck by exploding every ounce of physical power left in him.
The Neo-Demon and the Supernova Race man smiled as one cut from the right and the other from the left. Every centimeter their weapon severed put them closer to victory.
Death felt closer and closer to the Darkness Poison Duke. All of a sudden, his fear and anxiety vanished, and the only thing left in his eyes was emptiness.
When that happened, both Eon Six and Zatiel felt their instincts screaming danger. Unfortunately, before the duo could do anything, the Darkness Poison Duke spoke a word.
"ABORISCO."
Eon Six did not recognize the language, but the intonation made him think of a True Name's pronunciation. However, for a reason he could not comprehend, absolute hate and disgust invaded his soul.
Zatiel, on the other hand, understood that language very well. Nevertheless, his shock was not less than that of the Supernova Race man.
'How did a Pit Fiend who has yet to reach Peak Rank 6 use the Eldritch Forbidden Order Words.'
What the Pit Fiend used was not something so vain as My Word is Law. That ability is useful against weak life forms but not beings of their level.
Regardless of their personal feeling, the moment the Pit Fiend spoke that word, the duo felt that time stopped. The Prima Universe's laws deformed in its presence, and only Baator's core laws were not harmed.
The words released a force that neither Zatiel nor Eon Six could resist. They shot toward the ground as their extremities exploded, and Law Avatar vanished.
All of their organs presented severe injuries, and the force cracked even their soul dimensions. The only reason they survived was due to their armors and bloodlines.
The Darkness Poison Duke's eyes regained their light a moment after speaking that word. It seemed he acted purely on instinct, and the Eldritch Forbidden Order Words were not a power he could use freely.
The power of ABORISCO should have made the Darkness Poison Duke extremely happy, but the truth was that the damage he endured by speaking that word was even worse than the ones he provoked in Zatiel and Eon Six.
He felt his soul force and life force fading. All of his vitality vanished, and he shrank as his body endured an accelerated aging process.
No matter what he did, he could not stop himself from dying. Soon, he lost control and fell to the ground.
"NO, I CAN'T DIE. I MUST LIVE!" Fear appeared in the Pit Fiend's eyes as he felt his life escaping and all of his grandiose plans reduced to nothing.
After understanding that death was the only path forward, the despair in his heart transformed into madness, and he focused on the closest offender.
Using what little strength remained on his body, the Darkness Poison Duke walked toward Zatiel and grabbed his neck before raising him into the air.
Seeing his opponent's broken body and bloody face brought some satisfaction to the Pit Fiend's dying soul.
"You pathetic insect. Garbage like you can never defeat a mighty Devil Duke like me. I will now have your body and soul as my last meal."
The Darkness Poison Duke opened his mouth and prepared to devour the unconscious Neo-Demon, when all of a sudden, this one opened his eyes and looked back at him.
A beam of black electric energy with a red edge left the Eye of Death and Destruction and landed in the Pit Fiend's head.
The attack was extremely slow, so much that even a weak Rank 4 life form could dodge it. Unfortunately for the Darkness Poison Duke, his wounds and the short distance between him and Zatiel made it impossible to avoid it.
The Pit Fiend's speed of thought was not that harmed, so he could still perceive everything the electromagnetic beam did.
It did not simply destroy. The power in the beam acted at an atomic level, striking the particles that formed the Pit Fiend's body, energy, and soul with their antithesis.
In essence, the electric beam produced a complete annihilation of matter.
The Devil Duke's last thought before the electric beam shattered his Inner Law Dimension and True Soul was one word.
'Antimatter.'
