"So this is the power of Demon Mirajane!"
Freed, who had burst out from the pile of rubble, looked at the cold and ruthless Mirajane with a face full of shock.
As soon as Freed finished speaking, Mirajane's demonic wings behind her flapped violently, and her figure turned into a stream of light as she charged directly at Freed.
But Freed's reaction wasn't slow either.
The moment Mirajane attacked, he flashed aside, barely avoiding her attack.
But before Freed could even catch his breath, Mirajane circled back with astonishing speed and kicked Freed.
'Such terrifying power, I can't win at all!'
Stabilizing his posture, Freed looked at Mirajane, his face full of fear.
'There's no other way. I'll have to use that move then!'
With that, Freed waved his hand through the air.
A line of jet-black characters instantly appeared in the air.
"Dark Ecriture!"
"Darkness!"
In the next second, the black characters attached themselves to Freed's body.
At that moment, a surge of dark magical power erupted from Freed's body.
And his body began to change at a visible rate.
Soon, Freed transformed from a human into a demon with horns.
The demonized Freed didn't hesitate at all.
Flapping his demonic wings, he charged straight towards Mirajane to meet her head-on.
When Freed and Mirajane came together, they both threw punches almost simultaneously.
Bam-
The moment Freed's and Mirajane's fists collided, a violent impact sound echoed through the air.
An invisible shockwave also spread out in all directions, centered on Freed and Mirajane.
The surrounding hills, touched by the shockwave, shattered instantly.
Freed and Mirajane's fists didn't remain locked for long, and soon, they were engaged in fierce combat again.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Freed and Mirajane continuously exchanged blows with their fists.
With each collision, a violent impact sound would echo through the air.
As Freed and Mirajane continued to fight, a series of system prompts sounded in Kenichi's mind.
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Combat Power attribute +2.8]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Combat Power attribute +2.9]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Combat Power attribute +3.1]
[…]
At the same time, on the battlefield where Mirajane and Freed were, golden Combat Power attributes were dropping continuously.
Hearing this series of system prompts, Kenichi was overjoyed.
The Combat Power attribute was the hardest to obtain among the three attributes dropped by the system.
After all, in fights between mages, magic was generally used.
Furthermore, the Combat Power attribute values dropped by the system were usually very small.
For example, in fights between Natsu and Gray, Combat Power attributes would drop in values like 0.1 or 0.2.
But right now, in the fight between Mirajane and Demon Freed, Combat Power attributes were dropping continuously, and each Combat Power attribute value was around 3 points.
One time is 3, ten times are 30.
If it were before, Kenichi would need to collect nearly 100 Combat Power attributes to gain a 30-point Combat Power increase.
But now, it only took a few seconds to reach that value.
How could Kenichi not be happy?
Without waiting for the system prompt, Kenichi directly commanded the system: "Collect Combat Power attributes!"
With Kenichi's command, the Combat Power attributes on the battlefield over there all converged towards Kenichi.
After those Combat Power attributes merged into Kenichi's body, his Combat Power skyrocketed.
467.1
469.9
…
501.3
In just a few seconds, Kenichi's Combat Power surged from 467.1 to 501.3.
However, just as Kenichi's Combat Power reached 506.9, the data on the system screen stopped jumping.
Because over there, Mirajane had already sent Demon Freed flying.
"Darkness Stream!"
The stabilized Freed raised his arms, and in the next second, a dark magic sphere appeared between his palms.
As Freed continuously injected magical power into the sphere, it grew at a visible rate.
Once the sphere had expanded to a certain size, Freed launched it directly at Mirajane.
Watching the sphere filled with destructive energy rapidly enlarge in her vision, Mirajane showed no expression. She simply pulled her hands apart violently.
Bzzzt-
At that moment, a dark magic sphere also appeared between her palms.
"Soul Extinctor!"
Then Mirajane violently thrust her palms forward, and a huge dark magic shockwave shot towards Freed.
Soon, the dark magic shockwave struck the magic sphere.
The sphere filled with destructive energy, faced with this magic shockwave, was as fragile as paper and was instantly swallowed.
That wasn't all.
After destroying the magic sphere, the magic shockwave directly annihilated Freed.
At this point, the system's mechanical prompt sounded again in Kenichi's mind.
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +23]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +67]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Dark Ecriture Magic attribute]
Just as Kenichi was collecting the attributes, Mirajane's magic over there erupted with an incredibly dazzling light.
This light even surpassed the sunlight in the sky, illuminating most of Magnolia Town.
At that moment, the world fell into a deathly silence.
After a brief silence, destruction followed.
Boom-
With a terrifyingly loud explosion, a fearsome shockwave instantly spread out in all directions.
Erza, Cana, and the others who were rushing over had to stop in their tracks under the impact of this terrifying shockwave.
"Mira!"
Erza, shielding herself with her arms, looked at the terrifying explosion before her, her pretty face growing increasingly grave.
The terrifying explosion didn't last long.
After a few seconds, the explosion's light vanished, and the shockwave dissipated.
They saw that Freed had already reverted from his demon form to his human form and was falling straight down towards the ground below.
Mirajane clearly had no intention of letting Freed off.
She charged towards Freed with anger on her face, her posture seeming to indicate she wanted to finish him off completely.
Just then, Erza, who had rushed over, called out to Mirajane: "Mira!"
Hearing this, the angry Mirajane regained a trace of reason.
And an image of her younger sister Lisanna appeared in her mind.
