Lies

The surging hellfire, of course... hurt no one.

As the saying went, all smoke and no damage. The massive flames engulfed nearly everyone, yet not a single person was hurt. With a wave of his hand, Strange teleported them all away. Illyana could actually have done it faster, but demonized Illyana lacked that awareness.

Then, amid the roaring flames, a massive demon wreathed in fire rose from the ground. It was the second creature Illyana had summoned. The gigantic demon, dozens of meters tall, threw a punch straight at Belasco. Belasco merely sidestepped elegantly and thrust with his sword. The demon's entire arm was cut off just like that.

"This is the first time I've seen Belasco fight this well—last time we ganged up on him, it felt like he went down before we even used much strength."

Peter stood in the distance and watched Belasco slash the demon to pieces with a few strikes. With that kind of output, there were only a handful of people present who could take it. Then he saw demonized Magik leap into the air and charge down with her greatsword on her shoulder.

Logically speaking, the best way to deal with Belasco was to banish him from Hell's Border. His return this time was probably inseparable from people like the Dark Consortium and Mephisto. So long as they banished him and then dealt with the Dark Consortium, they could ensure peace until Belasco found a new way to return to Hell's Border.

But unfortunately, while demonized Illyana's physical capabilities had risen to the point where she could contend with The Thing and Hulk, some other aspects had clearly declined just as quickly. She did not seem to have any problem with her intelligence, but she was far more inclined to solve problems directly
