Chapter : 664

The two Royal Princesses stood side-by-side. They focused their magical energy. They prepared to launch a beautifully coordinated, highly destructive assault. General Vespera glared at them. The demon general was severely wounded, but she refused to surrender. The climax of the battle was officially starting.

---

Athena raised her long silver staff. The metal gleamed brightly in the dim light of the ballroom. She pointed the tip of the staff directly at Vespera. Her green eyes were focused. She calculated the exact dimensions of the room.

"Geometric Mana-Constructs," Athena commanded coldly.

Bright green magical energy shot from her staff. The energy formed solid, unbreakable lines in the air. The lines connected together at perfect ninety-degree angles. They moved with mathematical precision. They formed a gigantic, glowing geometric cage.

The green cage slammed down over Vespera. It trapped the demon general inside a solid, translucent box. The magical walls were thick.

Vespera hissed angrily. She hit the green walls with her good hand. The walls did not crack. They did not even vibrate. They were indestructible. She was contained.

"Now, Iris!" Athena yelled clearly. "The target is locked! Execute your strike!"

Princess Iris closed her eyes. She clasped her hands together tightly around the hilt of her silver rapier. She channeled her maximum holy mana. She reached deep into her royal bloodline.

"Infinite Prayers!" Princess Iris declared passionately.

A blinding, beautiful white light erupted from her back. The light gathered rapidly. It formed a towering, radiant angelic avatar behind her. The angel possessed massive, glowing wings. It held a gigantic sword of pure holy energy. The light pushed away all the dark shadows in the ballroom. It felt warm and pure.

The coordinated combo attack was fully prepared.

Princess Iris swung her rapier downward. The giant angelic avatar mirrored her exact movement. The angel brought the massive holy sword crashing down directly onto the geometric cage.

The holy light filled the entire green box. The brilliant white energy scorched Vespera. The pure magic burned away her toxic blood aura. The demon general shrieked in agony. The holy magic was her ultimate weakness. It melted her dark armor plating. It destroyed her pristine military uniform.

The intense attack pushed Vespera to the brink of total defeat.

The bright light slowly faded. Athena dropped the geometric cage. The green lines dissolved into harmless mist.

Vespera fell to her knees on the marble floor. She looked pathetic. Her dark crimson uniform was ruined. She clutched her bleeding shoulder. She breathed in ragged, gasping breaths. She was trapped. She had zero escape routes. The elite girls surrounded her .

Laxmi grinned wildly. She tossed a tiny orange spark into the air. "We won! The crazy vampire lady is beaten! That combo attack was amazing!"

Zinia crossed her strong arms. She smiled a proud, tough smile. "She has no magic left. It is over."

Ken Eliot sat on his overturned chair. He let out a loud, dramatic yawn. He stretched his arms high above his head.

"Finally," Ken complained lazily. He slumped his shoulders. "The boss is down. Now we can go find the dessert table. I really hope the flying meatballs did not ruin the chocolate cake. I will be very upset if my cake is ruined."

Vespera stared at the marble floor. She realized she had lost. Her grand mission was a total failure. She could not harvest the royal blood. She could not complete the dark ritual.

But Vespera was a high-tier commander of the Netherworld. She possessed a massive, arrogant ego. She refused to be captured by a group of human girls. She refused to surrender.

Vespera started laughing.

It was a crazy, demonic, utterly terrifying laugh. It bubbled up from her throat. She slowly lifted her head. Her toxic red eyes burned with sheer, unfiltered madness.

"You think you have won?" Vespera sneered viciously. She coughed up a small drop of dark blood. "You think you can capture me? I will never submit to your pathetic Empire. If I die today, you all die with me!"

Naomi frowned deeply. She spun her twin silver daggers. She took a step forward. "She is losing her mind. She has nothing left."

Vespera reached out with her trembling right hand. She picked up her glowing glass flask from the floor. She gripped the glass tightly.

She crushed the flask in her bare hand.

The glass shattered into tiny pieces. The swirling red mist escaped. But Vespera did not let the mist float away. She opened her mouth wide. She forcefully inhaled every single drop of the raw, toxic red magic. She absorbed the energy directly into her own body.

The reaction was instantaneous. It was horrific.

Vespera’s body began to glow with a violent, blinding red light. The light pulsed rapidly like a ticking clock. Her skin turned a burning, magma-like crimson color. The air around her grew intensely hot. A massive, suffocating pressure filled the entire ballroom.

"She is overloading her magical core!" Sayma screamed politely but urgently. The intelligent Vice-Captain pushed her glasses up her nose with a shaking finger. She opened her notebook frantically. "She is converting her own life force into pure explosive energy! She is turning herself into a massive bomb!"

Luna woke up . The sleepy lightning user rubbed her eyes. She looked genuinely alarmed. "A bomb? I do not like bombs. They are too loud."

"I will blow up this entire venue!" Vespera roared at the top of her lungs. Her body expanded slightly from the immense pressure. "I will vaporize every single noble in this room! We will all burn together!"

Total panic erupted in the ballroom. The wealthy nobles screamed wildly. They scrambled toward the walls. They tried to hide behind broken tables. They knew they could not outrun a magical explosion of that magnitude.

"Build a wall!" Princess Iris commanded fiercely. "Protect the civilians!"

Zinia stomped her boots onto the floor. "Stone Fortress!" she yelled. Massive slabs of solid rock ripped out of the ground. They formed a thick wall.

Sayma thrust her hands forward. "Absolute Hexagon!" A brilliant golden honeycomb barrier snapped into place behind the rock wall.

"It will not be enough!" Sayma warned loudly. Sweat poured down her face. She calculated the blast radius rapidly. "The explosive yield is astronomically high! It will easily shatter the rocks! It will break my shield! It will destroy the entire building!"

Laxmi dropped her orange flames. She looked helpless. "I cannot absorb that much heat! It is too toxic!"

Ken Eliot sat on his overturned chair. He watched Vespera glow brighter and brighter. He drooped his shoulders. He let out a long, quiet sigh.

"Self-destruct sequences are the most annoying game mechanic in existence," Ken complained casually in his mind. He buried his hands deep into his pockets. "It is such a massive sore loser move. You beat the boss fairly, and then they try to blow up the entire map. They always ruin the loot drops. I really wanted to see if she dropped a rare item. Now she is just going to ruin the floor."
