Perfect Avatar-Chapter 280: Maximum Hormones

The appearance of Dora petrified each fighter, holding Lilith, a blue-eyed Dora applied healing to her. The girl with trembling lips couldn’t believe that her mentor, literally her hero, was here.

"...Dora."

"...Yes...But no, sorry, this is Liliana."

"Eh?"

In front of Mercy and Freya, another Dora landed, striking her traditional sword fingers pose. Both girls were in complete shock, but even though they recognized the body, the energy was also easily identifiable.

"...Hope?" Mercy looked at Hope next to Gloria, the latter smiling nervously.

"...Damn...This power is top-notch."

He concentrated once more and recreated Sana, trying to completely heal Iris. The sword began to tremble, the crack instantly filling with red energy.

Liliana and Hope’s version of Dora stood between Freya and Mercy, all ready for the incoming missile, and then the blade exploded. A red stream flew through the air, lifting the earth and sending the temperature skyward.

Wrath emerged, like a skeleton from hell, his muscle structure had turned into a burning red matter on part of his body, his chest was glowing red. He gazed the new individuals and his body exploded.

"NAMELEEEEEES"

The atmosphere turned red in a large radius, all the vegetation burned, all the ice from Gloria’s previous attack vaporized. A dome of heat engulfed the area, and in a fleeting moment, Wrath whispered.

"Sanctification..."

From his body emanated a new type of dome, magma colored.

The ground turned to lava on the way to the dome, reaching everyone. The group jumped back, but it was no use as the dome grew indefinitely.

"Sanctification!"

Gloria’s mark glowed, she emanated another dome, clashing with Wrath’s in a black and white display.

The air cracked, the sky was torn by lightning. The two domes merged to form a gigantic black dome visible throughout the region.

Gloria writhed in pain, lightning sweeping over her, but her movement was successful as Wrath’s dome was stopped.

"Go... Go now, it will only stop the effects on you... But not on him... Go now!"

As soon as she finished her sentence, Wrath was on top of her.

The impact of the punch cracked much of the earth behind it, stretching for miles. Wrath’s fist had pierced Gloria’s stomach, coming out from behind. Hope, Lilith and Iris watched the scene helplessly.

Gloria vomited blood on the Mad, the latter withdrew his hand, but failed, the Queen using all her strength and magic to trap him in her. Shaka tried to kick her, but his leg collided with Freya’s axe.

The two Doras appeared behind Gloria, striking the Mad’s face, then Mercy fell on him and cut his head several times.

"AAAAUGGGHHH"

A war cry sent them all flying, the green Dora quickly regained his momentum and launched a black beam piercing Shaka’s chest, but the attack disappeared on contact.

Gloria frowned, she felt something she knew on the Mad but couldn’t understand it until a foreign lightning touched her. There was a mark on Wrath’s chest, similar to her.

"...Marked? He was marked too?!"

Another punch tore through her right cheek, leaving her teeth exposed. Wrath’s body became a deadly weapon and any blow could kill anyone, but the Queen refused to let go.

"Heeeeh... He haj been marked too! Heh will lose hiz power zoon! Kep attackin!"

The message travelled through everyone’s brain like lightning. Mercy and Freya circled around Wrath and Gloria, delivering constant blows to the Mad.

He turned around, brushing against the Dora created by Hope and destroying it in an instant, but another creation appeared, covered by Stargazer.

Lilith slammed his head, Liliana fought on instinct and used the power of gravity for the first time, sending him flying. Gloria took a deep breath and screamed.

"Don’t worry about anything, attack! Use everything on him!"

Wrath’s jaws crushed her left shoulder, tearing away bone and flesh.

She gritted her teeth and began to bite him in turn, her jaw reddened by the blood and the energy crushing the Mad’s throat.

They climbed into this macabre embrace, followed by the pseudo-avatars.

Freya sliced ​​through the air, tearing the sky with blinding light, Mercy slashed Wrath on the back dealing 100 hits in an instant, then Liliana appeared from the side, gathering energy in her hands.

She stopped thinking, fighting purely on instinct, her body moving almost on its own.

"Aurum Serra"

The air cracked blue, then the particles fell to the ground, but the two demons continued to rise, biting each other to death.

Hope’s Dora created a canopy of stars above, then shot them both with Balance, and right after the flash, Iris gave a useless gash to the Mad’s back.

Despite all this, the two Avatars did not seem affected, but that was only an impression.

The attacks ravaged Gloria, but she ignored everything so as not to let go of Wrath and the Mad was now reduced to a skeleton covered in red energy.

This hell lasted a minute, with the knights as witness, and finally, the turning point came.

"...Guh..."

Gloria let go of Wrath, the energy on her stomach disappeared as well, then the white of the atmosphere disappeared, devoured by a deep red. Wrath released his bite and looked at the Queen impaled on his fist.

Everyone stopped attacking, watching in disbelief, it was over. A red lightning engulfed everyone, turning clothes into ashes, burning everyone’s skin.

Agharita saw the dome fall on her like Fafnir’s breath two years ago, but at the last moment, her body became covered in energy.

Wrath’s skeleton turned the color of magma, burning Gloria from the inside, but the Queen stopped reacting.

Freya fell to her knees, struggling to breathe, Iris, Lilith, Cid and the knights were covered in a protective bubble from Liliana, the young girl struggling to contain everyone.

They could no longer breathe, they were burned alive, it was no longer impossible to struggle.

Wrath rushed to the ground and punched the earth with the fist Gloria was impaled on.

The earth exploded in a wide radius, sending the pseudo-avatars to the ground. Wrath stood up, free.

Gloria was in a small puddle of magma, her body crushed.

Wrath let out a scream that vibrated the air and ground, then stomped on Gloria’s stomach, again and again. His stomping made the earth shake, each time Gloria’s body moved from the impact but she stopped reacting herself.

The pseudo-avatars watched the scene, lowering their weapons, their faces devastated. They could have intervened, but they did not, frozen by the tragedy.

Wrath continued to stomp again and again, his body shot through with more black lightning.

With his burning aura around him, he was literally a lava skeleton, an invincible creature, his laughter filling the air again, melting with the sound of stomping, the pool of lava mingling with blood.

His energy increased, engulfing the skeleton, and soon his kneecaps touched the queen.

"...."

Wrath’s leg was gone, he barely had time to process it before he went to strangle her, then his arms dissolved.

Everyone looked at the scene with wide eyes, Wrath’s energy was increased tenfold but his body was disappearing. His upper body fell on Gloria, eye to eye, so close he could hear her whisper.

"... Zo... You’ve... Become... Energy?... Good..."

The truth lay in the concept of Wrath’s power and what Dora had done to him. Wrath’s blessing allowed him to convert the damage he received into power and heal from any damage, but to do so he had to go through a transformation into a giant, however, Dora had used his seal on this part and so Wrath was unable to recover.

Basically, while his power increased, he could no longer regenerate, so he slowly self-destructed and turned into energy, fated to be absorbed by the seal.

"Go... fuck yourself... in Hell... bastard."

The Mad’s skull split its jaw open, then disintegrated as well, leaving a red aura above Gloria. The space changed color and let the night sky return to its black color.

The energy converged above the Queen, swirling and forming a red orb with an aura of fire: Wrath’s soul stone.
