[Deep underground]

[Seo Ah point of view]

"Please, hang in there, everyone... Zerolith, are you alright?" [Seo Ah]

"I'm fine...." [Zerolith]

He's not fine. He's having difficulty in breathing normally right now. Maintaining Chrono stasis just to prevent the progression of the vampires and giants that will explode moment notice, he's holding the life line of this country on his very hand right now. One slip and it will all be over. Is there anything that I can do...

"Zerolith! I brought everyone that can use time magic for you!" [Kanji]

"Thanks Kanji, everyone..." [Zerolith]

"Don't worry, Kanji here already told us everything!"

"Support the Demon Priest will all our might!"

"YES!"

"Thank you, I appreciate it" [Zerolith]

And they all supported Zerolith. It seems Zerolith can finally catch a breather, but he doesn't. Who can, when the situation is this grim

(Is there... Is there anything that I can do...) [Seo Ah]

I know that all I can do is praying, but isn't there anything else that I can do! As a fellow sister, as siblings of Orphanage that sworn to support them all. As Saintess Rumia...

(Seo Ah... Seo Ah!) [Saintess Rumia?]

"Saintess!?" [Seo Ah]

"!?" [Other]

(Listen, O pupil of my favourite daughter) [?]

(God... Goddess Achalasia!) [Seo Ah]

No doubt! I could never forget her voice even after all these years!

(Seo Ah, listen...) [Saintess Rumia?]

What's going on? How can I suddenly hear her voices? Is it because of Ultima Iero Fragma? Whatever is it...

"Kanji, can you help me? And Zerolith, just hang in there a bit more!" [Seo Ah]

"Huh? I mean yes!" [Kanji]

"Did something happen?" [Zerolith]

[At the New Headquarters]

[Saint Louis point of view]

A rally of people from different species, all band together under the leadership of both young hero Rean and I, all with the sole intention of saving Rumia.

No matter how exhausted we are, no matter how cripples we are, no matter how bleak the chance look likes

"For Saintess Rumia"

Said the Young Adventure

"I still need to repay all the kindness that she had done for me and my family!"

Said the old snake beastman

"I can't face Princess Diana if I couldn't save her best friend, and my brethren are all there, waiting for Saintess Rumia to save her! I won't give up!" [Alaric]

"True. Us vampires will support Saint Louis and Saintess Rumia!" [Alicia]

"You can add us giant as well!"

And speaking of my name

"Saint Louis and Saintess Rumia, both are the pillar that alongside the ten heroes, will bring a new dawn to Achalasia! It's simply an honour fighting alongside Saint Louis with the holy purpose of saving the Goddess favourite daughter"

"You dwarf make some good speech!"

"Coming from some lousy elf, that's quite a high praise"

"HEY!"

""You guys are funny"" [Karon, Farhah]

And as for the young heroes that can fight

"Everyone! Our top priority is to safe Saintess Rumia!" [Rean]

"RIGHT!!!!"

"Stopping Zin will come second, but seeing the situation..." [Elise]

"To save Saintess Rumia, one way or another, we have to stop Zin first" [Savel]

"Dammit! If only that powerful thick devilish miasma didn't interfere with our space magic, Mrs Linda and I would have been able to save Saintess Rumia!" [Singa]

Together with The Holy Beast of Wind, all of us try our best to save Rumia, but alas

"Nothing work..." [Linda]

"And I could only support all of you for so much..." [Seraph]

"If only a demon like me can be some help like you..."

"Don't worry. Just continue what you have done, together we will prevail" [Seraph]

"True. Keep pushing and we will find way soon enough" (Tchh, if only I didn't let that damn witch saintess escape, I could just force her to stop Zin) [Gilbert]

Zin simply enormous enough, and any and all attack seems insignificant for him. Even the holy beast itself couldn't make a dent on his thick skin

"GAAH!"

"The miasma! It's suffocating..."

"Fall back! Those who couldn't be any nearer to Zin fall back!" [Saint Louis]

"Help the other that couldn't stand! Bring them somewhere safe!" [Samurai Jacks]

""Come here and we will treat you up!!"" [Lara, Nara]

The toll of having to breath on this devilish miasma, it started to affect us all one after another. Thankfully, the twin homunculus help them in removing the devilish miasma. I wonder, how Rumia is doing...

"!?" [Saint Louis]

"Is something the matter, Louis?" [Gilbert]

"I just realize, Saintess Rumia, she wasn't affected by it at all..." [Saint Louis]

"True. We noticed that as well, and we are still wondering why" [Farhah]

"Tell me, are there anything else that any of you notice?" [Saint Louis]

Albeit all of us are fighting with our very own lives on the line right now, everyone naturally pitch in and listen to what other have to say. One by one, when fighting against Zin, it's like all of us naturally come to one single conclusion

"That giant is trying to protect her?" [Alicia]

"If that's indeed the case, we can use it to our advantage. We just need to wake Saintess Rumia up and let her convince Zin to stop" [Alaric]

"Trying to wake her up. I'll try something with my mirage magic. Singa!" [Savel]

"I know!" [Singa]

Those two synchronize perfectly, with Savel preparing his spell all the while Singa choosing the best spot to teleport him, and once they're ready

"Hold it!" [Kanji]

"Please wait!" [Seo Ah]

""Kanji!? Seo Ah!?"" [Singa, Savel]

"Please take her with you!" [Kanji]

"Listen! The goddess and Saintess Rumia herself. They gave me their own blessing to help both Zin and Saintess Rumia!" [Seo Ah]

"How so?" [Saint Louis]

"Saint Louis! Mr Seraph! Both of you need to help me as well!" [Seo Ah]

Trying to convince us, she raise her hand, and chant the same spell as Rumia does, and the Ultima Iero Fragma, all of it rush into her hand, together with another blessing arising from inside of her. I fully understand why she needs both Seraph and my help

"I see. Without us, you might get blown away because of the mana..." [Seraph]

"That's right. I'm sorry, but Saintess Rumia mentioned that both of you will be simply exhausted, so she left the task to me, but..." [Seo Ah]

"Don't worry. You make the right choice asking for our help!" [Saint Louis]

"So, what will you do with it?" [Alaric]

"I will shoot Saintess Rumia and invigorate her back, hopefully with the Goddess power inside of me and with this blessing, we can save Saintess Rumia and remove the Fallen God influence from Zin" [Seo Ah]

"If that's the case, Singa. Change of plan." [Savel]

"We will create an opening for you to save Saintess Rumia directly! Please, believe in us" [Singa]

"Then I will be the one taking the three of you as near as possible" [Linda]

"Please do so!" [Seo Ah]

"Then the other, we need to stop Zin from walking even if it's for one second! That way this young lady Seo Ah will not miss her shot!" [Gilbert]

"Right!"

"I can really feel the Goddess blessing coming from you. Then I should simply block this giant with my own body!" [Eternal wind]

"Focus on the upper part! Farhah and I will immobilize his lower limb!" [Karon]

"Yeah we will!" [Farhah]

"Everyone! Support the two of them!" [Rean]

"RIGHT!"

Both Karon and Farhah quickly pull one one massive last spell from their part, trying to hold both the lower limbs of Zin from moving. Karon enclosing the legs with layer upon layer of earth while Farhah using trees and vines to further strengthen it. The other pull out various spells to support them. As for the Holy Beast, with all it might, it handle the many hands and the abdomen of Zin all alone

"Are you ready, Seo Ah?" [Linda]

"I am!" [Seo Ah]

""Then here we go!"" [Singa, Savel]

"Same here!" [Linda]

Using teleportation magic, we are now up there in the sky, with both space magic from Singa and Linda to keep us afloat, with the addition of Singa's newly acquired wind magic

Savel use dragonewt transformation and start charging laser of water and mirage from his mouth, all the while getting transported by Singa to what seems to be the perfect angle.

"Space magic: Cube of teleportation!" [Singa]

With his spell, Singa make a large cube and teleport part of the miasma and fingers of Zin. As expected, it didn't work at all, but that moment create a moment where part of the area are not covered with the devilish miasma

"Sea of mirage!" [Savel]

"I'll add! Wind barrier! Don't let the miasma interfere!" [Singa]

Savel simply fill that spaces with his own mana, and that sea of mirage, once it comes into contact with Rumia, Savel give us a signal. To further increase our chance of success, Singa uses his wind magic and ward off any devilish miasma that try to get closer

"Here I go! Please! Let it wake Saintess Rumia up!" [Seo Ah]

With his second finger, Seo Ah fire off a beam that travel through the Sea of Mirage before finally hitting Rumia. We aren't sure what happen, but

"S.A.I.N.T.E.S.S.R.U.M.I.A?" [Zin]

"Hello there... Zin..." [Rumia]

A bright light engulf Zin entirely
