"What!?"

Kalya and the girls were shocked when they saw Ziel use a large-scale attack on them. Even so, they realized that in this training, Ziel would regard them as real enemies on the battlefield. But Azalia and the others knew that Ziel wasn't using all of his strength because he wasn't holding his sword.

"Block that attack!" Azalia shouted at Princess Aishia and the others.

The girls quickly reacted to her words. Then a dozens of layers barrier appeared between them and the asteroid

Booooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

Crack!

The barrier cracked and then shattered, unable to block the asteroid. The attack continued and fell right on the girls.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

"Urgh!" Princess Iris and the girls lay on the ground, covered in wounds from that attack. Even though they didn't receive any major injuries, their confidence was shattered by that one strike. As they were deep in their thoughts, a voice echoed in their ears.

"Is that all your strength is? If that is true, then you are truly weak and a disappointment. I still held back my attacks, but it's a different story if your opponents are primeval gods. They will attack you without hesitation until you die. So if your strength is only that much, you should forget about your intention to fight against the primeval gods because you won't be able to do anything and will only give your life to them for nothing." Ziel said indifferently.

Although his words are harsh, it is the truth. If Ziel hadn't reduced the asteroid's weight before it hit the girls, that huge boulder would have crushed their bodies. Azalia and the others would have died if their opponents were the primeval gods because they wouldn't hold back when fighting those girls.

Princess Freya and the others trembled when they heard that and realized they were weak. They had to admit they were helpless and could do nothing in the face of such power. The girls weren't mad at Ziel because what he said was true.

Kalya and the girls clenched their fists tightly, and their eyes turned bloodshot. They tried to stand up and didn't want to continue lying on the ground. Clara and the others must overcome their powerlessness to become stronger.

Not long after, the girls stood up and quickly drank potions to recover their condition. Ziel didn't forbid them from using potions because they would also use them on the real battlefield.

"Good! Then, let us continue our battle." Ziel smiled and said with satisfaction.

[Thunder Beam]

Ziel fired a red laser beam at the girls; the target was Kalya. The attack cut through the smoke and dust that covered the place and shot towards Kalya with great precision.

Kalya didn't panic when she saw the attack coming at her. She manifested a bow in her hand and shot an arrow against the red laser beams.

[Tempest Arrow]

The arrow formed a vortex and clashed with Ziel's attack, creating an intense shockwave that dispelled smoke and dust in the area.

Boooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

"Huh!?" Kalya was surprised because she managed to block the red laser beam. She thought her arrows would only reduce the damage from Ziel's attack. But Kalya didn't expect that she could completely block it. As she was thinking about the reason, she raised her eyebrows after remembering something.

"Is this because the origin power has been mixed with the spirit power?" Kalya was speechless by the destructive power shown by the origin power because it far exceeded her expectations.

Ziel did not give Kalya and the others time to take a breath. He fired another attack and showered them with red laser beams.

"Be careful!" Kalya warns the girls.

[Solar Beam]

Queen Helena fired a golden laser beam from her palm, and everything around the attack's trajectory was burned. It was similar to one of Princess Freya's attacks but with a more refined version.

Booooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

The two attacks collided, and the impact sent Queen Helena flying several meters.

On the other hand, Clara and the other girls also managed to block the laser beams. But they still couldn't calm down because another attack was coming.

[Origin Thunder Beam]

The same attacks came at them in greater numbers. The girls were ready to block the attack again in the same way. But the laser beams suddenly changed color, coiling around each other and forming a bigger and more terrifying attack.

"What!?" The girls were shocked when they saw that.

"Attack together and block those gray laser beams!" Azalia screamed, and her voice brought the girls back to their senses.

According to Azalia's instruction, Lilith and the others fired their attacks and combined them to counter the gray laser beams. The girls' attacks clashed with Ziel's and created an explosion.

Booooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

"Is defending all you can do? I attacked you less than five times, and you barely got a handle on it. The longer the battle, the more exhausted and overwhelmed you will be due to running out of stamina and energy sources. This training will never end because none of your attacks hit me. That is your goal and is the most important." Ziel said calmly, and his figure appeared not far from the girls. Then he created a ball of energy in his palm and threw it into the sky above the girls.

[Thunder Pillar]

"Get away from this place!" Azalia said frantically, and the girls quickly followed her words.

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

A gigantic pillar of light with lightning sparks fell where the girls had been standing earlier, and the impact caused the area to shake violently. Not long after, the pillar of light disappeared and revealed a large hole in the ground.

"What the hell is that?" Princess Cordelia said in a trembling voice after seeing the sight. Although she had seen Ziel fight in the past, this was the first time she had experienced it directly. Princess Cordelia felt that she and the others would die if that pillar of light hit them. But since it was Ziel who fired the attack, they would only be seriously injured.

"You have to stay alert, Cordelia. The attack was still insignificant because Ziel was still not serious until now. He still hadn't used his weapon, nor had he used the abilities of the continent's guardians. We might have died without a trace if he had attacked us using that thing." Kalya warns Princess Cordelia. She didn't want the girls to lower their guard in that battle just because of that.

Princess Iris and the others nodded when they heard Kalya's words. As they waited for the next attack from Ziel, they heard a thunderous sound from the sky.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Not long after that, rain fell and drenched the ground in the area. Under the sound of the rain, they heard a voice that was familiar to them.

[Lightning Shower]

Hundreds of red lightning fell from the sky like dragons descending on the Clorius Continent. Kalya and the others' faces became serious and quickly formed a defensive barrier.

Boooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm!

"Cough!" Lilith and the girls were vomiting blood from the impact, but their barrier managed to hold it off. They were looking for Ziel, but they had lost him. The girls looked around them but couldn't find or feel his presence.

"It's dangerous!" Kalya screamed and intended to warn the girls. She took the battle for real and dared not underestimate the attacks coming at them even though she knew Ziel wasn't using his full power. Unfortunately, Kalya's warning came too late. Ziel's figure suddenly appeared in front of Princess Irene and punched her.

"What!?" Princess Irene panicked, but she quickly created a barrier in front of her.

[Twenty layers of barrier]

A twenty-layer barrier appeared before Princess Irene to block Ziel's fist. Since her strength has increased, Princess Irene can freely use her innate ability without risk. Unfortunately, it couldn't withstand Ziel's attack.

Crash!

Princess Irene's barrier broke easily, and Ziel punched her in the stomach.

"Ugh!" Princess Irene felt pain all over her body, and her consciousness slowly faded into the darkness.

Ziel raised his eyebrows and slightly moved to the side. After that, a sword slashed where he was standing before. The one who attacked Ziel was Azalia. She tried to take the opportunity that Princess Irene created for the girls. But Ziel quickly noticed it.

Azalia compressed the divine power mixed with origin power in her sword and swung it at Ziel.

[Breaking the Sky]

Azalia released a giant aura blade at Ziel. She attacked Ziel without hesitation because she knew that she wouldn't be able to hurt him if she didn't do that.

Ziel smiled and swung his hand like a sword. Then the space in front of him split open and engulfed Azalia's attack.

"What!?" Azalia was surprised because Ziel could easily deal with her attacks.

Ziel's figure disappeared again, and he appeared behind Azalia. When he was about to attack him from behind, an arrow shot towards him at high speed. Ziel kept his distance from Azalia and saw that Kalya aimed another arrow at him. Not only her but also the other girls were also ready to fire their attacks.

[Thunderstorm Dragon]

[Water Tornadoe]

[Silver Magnum]

[Dark Bullet]

[Black Inferno]

[...]

Kalya and the girls attack Ziel from all directions and block his escape route.

Boooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

The girls' attacks hit Ziel. But when the smoke cleared from the place, they frowned as they saw the scene before their eyes.

[Impenetrable Fortress]

Ziel was fine without a single scratch because he was protected by a big gray fortress-shaped barrier made of origin power.

[Piqment Clone]

Ziel's body became unreal and suddenly split into two, four, eight and ten. The Ziel clones spread out and attacked each of the girls.

Clara saw the Ziel clone coming at her and immediately fired her attack. She panicked slightly because the Ziel clone was approaching her at high speed and had already arrived before her in the blink of an eye.

[Ice Fire Harmony]

Clara released fire and ice attacks at Ziel to his left and right. Then she fired another attack from the front.

[Frozen World]

The entire area in front of Clara froze. Ziel's clone would lose its mobility if it came within her range attack and would be hit by fire and ice from its left and right, or so she thought. Unfortunately, it wasn't the same as reality; the Ziel clone suddenly stopped and backed away to avoid the attacks from its left and right. After that, he pointed his finger at Clara.

[Thunder Beam]

"What!?" Clara was shocked and intended to avoid the attack. But it was too late, and the red laser pierced her shoulder.

"Aargh!" Clara fell in pain. But Ziel's clone attack wasn't over yet as another red laser beam hit Clara's other shoulder, both leg and arm until she couldn't move.

The other Ziel clone went towards Queen Helena. When she saw Ziel's clone coming at her, Queen Helena teleported and tried to keep her distance from him to fire her attack. But when she teleported, Ziel's clone disappeared from her sight.

"Where is he going?" Queen Helena looked around but could not find his figure anywhere. But then, she felt pain in her back, and her consciousness slowly faded. When she looked back, she found a clone of Ziel there. After that, Queen Helena fell and fainted.

Princess Freya fought fiercely against the Ziel clone. She wasn't good at close-range combat. Thus, she could only continue to run away from it while firing her magic.

[Gatling Sun Flower]

Princess Freya bombarded the Ziel clone with hundreds of light bullets, but none of them could break through the barrier protecting him, and he looked like a walking fortress was approaching her at top speed.

"Huh?" Princess Freya felt a palm touch her back as she tried to keep her distance from Ziel. Just as she was about to check it out, a terrifying impact sent her flying until she hit a large tree.

"Cough!" Princess Freya vomited blood and then fainted. The one who attacked her from behind was a Ziel clone who had defeated Queen Helena as their battle was not far from Princess Freya.

After that, one by one, the girls were defeated. Some of them lost their mobility, and some were unconscious. They tried to fight together but still couldn't land a single hit on the Ziel clone. Currently, only three people remained of the girls. They are Kalya, Azalia and Lilith. They are the strongest among others.

"Thus, only the three of you are left in this training ground. Show me how long you can last or land one of your attacks on me, and this training is over." Ziel said coldly and extended his palm towards them.
