"You humans will never defeat a high-ranking demon. That is a truth proven by countless wars!"
"Demonic Flame Magic!!!"
Nahama watched Sakazuki rocket upward on jets of magma from his lower body and shouted coldly.
At the same time.
Pitch-black waves of fire surged from his left hand once more.
The terrifying heat made the surrounding air boil again, blurring and warping amid the violent turbulence.
"In this world, nothing but justice is absolute—and justice belongs only to humans!"
"If you cannot understand that, then I'll give you a complete and utter defeat!"

The surrounding air was instantly sucked away, forming visible, raging shockwaves that swept across the battlefield.
Yet the outcome went beyond Nahama's expectations.
The magma fist was not swiftly devoured by the black flames.
Or rather, the flames could not consume it as quickly as the magma was generated.
Even the magma on the outer layer, once clung to by the black flames, automatically broke away, while the main body of the Great Eruption continued hurtling fiercely toward Nahama.
Like a massive fist made of magma, it pushed through wave after wave of black flames, determined to punch straight through them!

The latter point
