It was merely to that extent. The current Oswald had long surpassed his state when he fought Lucifer. At that time, he had fought on par with Lucifer with the help of the Plague Grimoire and Blood Daemon, but now, even without them, his pure physical abilities alone surpassed Invidia’s.
‘𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘶𝘦 𝘎𝘳𝘪𝘮𝘰𝘪𝘳𝘦.’
With that, Oswald immediately used Blood Daemon to cover his entire body in a suit. Only then did Invidia, realizing Oswald’s true identity, frown.
【Oh? This is a complete bust, then?】
She, too, realized that the being before her was the Giant who had defeated Lucifer and the Nephilim, the embodiment of Lucifer’s Trinity.
Paaaang!
Absorbing Oswald’s strengthened life force, the hypersonic thrusters spewed flames, instantly propelling Oswald in front of Invidia.
Then, Oswald’s fist swung, striking the top of Invidia’s head and sending her crashing to the ground.
Kwaaaang!
Invidia, who had been soaring in the sky, plummeted at a terrifying speed and crashed into the ground. Not stopping there, Oswald materialized a Hellfire Missile Launcher and bombarded Invidia with an endless barrage of missiles.
Kugugugugung!
However, Invidia wasn’t just going to stand there and take the beating. She used her two pairs of wings to protect her body, and when an opening appeared, she immediately spread two of her wings, shooting out feathers as hard as steel and as sharp as hidden weapons, counterattacking Oswald.
Shwack! Shwack! Shwack! Kagakang!
Dozens of feathers struck the red suit Oswald was wearing, and sparks flew, creating a menacing scene.
However, the suit, created based on Oswald’s immense life force, remained unscathed. Or rather, it would be more accurate to say that any scratches were instantly repaired.
‘𝘐𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘥, 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴, 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘪𝘵?’
Only when she was beaten to a pulp with overwhelming force, to the point where she could no longer maintain her form, would her physical body collapse and be banished from Century. Hadn’t he shattered Lucifer’s Nephilim in the same way in the past?
At that moment, Archduke Malekis of the Saharan Empire made his move. Oswald, sensing the powerful black magic above his head, retreated, and Archduke Malekis, not missing the opportunity, swung his hand down! From amidst the Chaos storm clouds, a bolt of black lightning struck towards Invidia.
Kwagang!
【Kyaaaaaaaaak!】
Black magic, just like demonic power, was the antithesis of Holy Power.
As the magic composed of the domineering and cruel power of black magic unfolded, Invidia screamed, seemingly taking a significant hit.
Then, brilliant orbs of light in five colors rose from all directions, instantly illuminating the surroundings. Within that light, there was Holy Power, magical power, black magic, spirit power, and all other energies that existed in this world.
“Ragnarok!”
With Archduke Malekis’ incantation, beams of high-density energy in five colors shot out from the orbs of light, which had increased in number to several hundred, attacking Invidia in the pit.
This tremendous grand magic left Oswald’s team speechless as they witnessed its destructive power in real-time, as magnificent as its dazzling attack.
When the attack ended, Invidia’s tattered figure was revealed. As expected of an Archduke Demon, her life force seemed incredible, as she wasn’t easily banished. . . but it seemed she wasn’t entirely unharmed, as she couldn’t even stand properly.
Of course, Archduke Malekis, who had used such grand magic, also appeared quite exhausted.
“I’ll take care of the rest.”
Oswald, who had somehow drawn Mjolnir and Moonlight, infused the two holy artifacts with Holy Power and charged towards Invidia. She, barely regaining her senses, faced the oncoming Oswald.
It was uncertain whether she could withstand close combat against Oswald even in her prime condition, but with her body battered to a pulp from the previous magical attack, she couldn’t even resist him in close quarters.
Thanks to that, she endured a painful time, being pummeled by Mjolnir and slashed by Moonlight. To make matters worse, even Holy Power, one of the fundamental energies that made up her being, was being sucked away by him. . . She shuddered and resisted, but eventually, all her Holy Power was stolen, leaving her with a hideous appearance.
【This can’t. . . be happening!】
She couldn’t come to her senses, her appearance reduced to a level of repulsiveness on par with Baalzebub, the Archduke of Gluttony, whom she loathed, even uglier than Asmodeus, the Archduke of Lust, whom she envied so much.
Having lost all 1,000 levels of her Holy Power, Invidia awakened as a true demon. . . but it didn’t help much in the current situation.
“Now, shall we finish this?”
Oswald had at some point replaced Mjolnir with ‘Yin-Yang,’ which he had taken from Lucifer, holding it in his left hand. Then, as he began to swing both swords infused with Holy Power, sword energies poured out from them, slashing and cutting Invidia’s body repeatedly.
At that moment, she drew a long, black spear and threw it straight at Oswald!
Shwaaaak! Kwachaang!
“Keuheok!”
The black spear, piercing through the air, penetrated near Oswald’s solar plexus and straight through to his back.
【It’s not. . . over yet.】
Immense pain followed, but based on the life force emanating from the Giant’s heart, the Troll King’s heart repaired Oswald’s body, and Blood Daemon also restored the damaged areas, instantly returning him to his normal state. Then, Oswald examined the weapon that had pierced his solar plexus.

‘𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸? 𝘜𝘨𝘩. . . 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯 𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘴.’
Invidia, who had somehow retrieved the Demonic Spear, stood tall, recovering her body through the Demonic Power emanating from the spear.
