First Contact (First Half)

"Celsius Cross Trigger!"

It was a spell that Serafall never thought she would have to use again. She first during the war against the Old Satan Faction. It was meant to efficiently eliminate the strong devils of the opposing faction immediately. Those who managed to avoid the spell would at the very least, suffer severe hypothermia and life-threatening frostbite. The bes—worst part about it was that it even slowed regeneration as the almost absolute zero temperature of her spell would even halt cellular movement.

If she wanted, she could convert a vast region of the Underworld into ice, but she banned it herself because it would take the land more than a millennium to recover—if it even could.

'Scorched Earth tactic right?'

'Actually, wouldn't it be called Frozen Underworld then? Or at the very least, Frozen Earth?'

Serafall didn't have the time to question semantics as she could feel the giant resisting her spell.

Her goal was simple; it was to convert the demon into ice.

It isn't a difficult task for a forbidden spell, if it could convert an entire region of the Underworld into ice then why not an oversized skeleton?

'Wouldn't it become one of the Jotunn then? Would the Norse Pantheon call me out for cultural appropriation right? They never liked us to begin with… Bad Serafall! Pay attention!'

Serafall poured more energy into the spell, soon after, the entire compound was converted into sculptures made from ice. If she could, she would take a picture of the mesmerizing view. However, she had a feeling that just this wasn't enough either she pulled her a small vial from the gap between her chest.

Inside the vial was a maelstrom of crimson black energy. It shook uncontrollably as if it begged to be let loose.

This was the power of destruction.

Or rather, a contained version. It was meant for people who doesn't possess the bloodline to use it, it was Ajuka's side project and she was about to be the first one to try it out.

Serafall pulled the cork out and surprisingly enough, the power of destruction stayed within. It was as if there was a barrier preventing it from leaving.

'If I'm correct…' She inserted a little bit of her energy into the container and then immediately poured three-quarters of it into the glacial ground under her. The power of destruction assimilated into the ice as its former beautiful ocean blue color was dyed with black. She then splashed the rest into the air and it quickly evaporated into the atmosphere. She could feel the power of destruction effortlessly merge with the water vapor within the compound.

'The Underworld Environmental Protection Agency won't file complaints if I use it in the human world right?'

Serafall turned around to warn the boy behind her to step back. Much to her surprise, she realized that the boy was standing a mere centimeter away from safety. Can't he just move a little bit backwards?

'Why is he even removing his uniform?'

'Is he stupid?'

'Did I convert his brain to ice as well?'

'Does he actually want to get sick?'

'He's right next to the safety zone so why isn't he crossing over?! As a matter of fact, shouldn't he be running as far as possible?!'

"Not even Ajuka-chan can be this precise!" Several thoughts went through her head, but she concluded that it had to be luck.

"Satan's Imperial Palace!"

A majestic mini-sized palace made of blackened ice shot from under the skeleton, preventing it from escaping. The property made it so that the demon couldn't escape and if it did—the power of destruction within the imperial walls will slowly start to erode the demon. Serafall willed the palace to shrink, forcing the demon to be grinded against the walls.

"13 Arrows of Cocytus!" Arrows of blackened ice formed out of the water vapor, about the size of a wooden log all aiming at the demon. She was confident that not even her fellow Satans could come out of this spell uninjured!

Serafall fired the arrows at the demon imprisoned in ice. As if the imperial palace had recognized the will of the user, it immediately opened itself in locations where the arrow aimed.

The siscon smiled at the sound of bones cracking as she couldn't wait to recover the bones of the demon. To withstand her spells earlier and to even survive the forceful conversion of her spell meant that the demon had formidable ice resistance capabilities that even rivaled that of her Behemoth! Once she forges equipment from the bones and presents them to Sona-tan…

A rather depraved expression covered her face as she started to breathe like a pervert who had just stolen panties for the first time.

"Watch as I shatter your bones you mere skeleton!"

-------------------------------

'Mere skeleton?' Naruto almost died from laughter as he heard the words coming from his 'protector.' He wasn't even worried about the fact that his Susanoo was about to be penetrated like an unfortunate victim of Kimimaro.

'If you think your weird jutsu can harm my Susanoo, then you should go back to school and study!'

[Like you?]

'…'

----------------------------------------

It was as if Go—the creator had revived and personally performed the creation of life in front of the Satan.

Serafall watched in a stupor as the demon's red aura flared and disintegrated the palace walls. Tendrils of what appears to be flesh manifest from inside the bones of the demon, it wrapped around the skeleton, giving the demon what seems to be muscles.

"Crap!" Serafall yelled. This was a scene all too familiar with her—because she had personally watched too many shōnen anime that had scenes like this.

"This is the power-up scene!"

She wasn't going to let the demon continue its transformation.

"49 Arrows of Cocytus!" This was going to take a good chunk of her reserves. Simply converting the water vapor that had merged with the Power of Destruction takes up at least 10 times the normal amount needed, and that was only with the assistance of Celsius Cross Trigger! Her spell makes the conversion process much easier and yet, it still takes up at least ten times the reasonable amount!

"Ice Totems!" Pillars of Ice that aimed horizontally just like the arrows appeared directly behind each and every arrow. Serafall swung her arms downwards and immediately, the totems of ice smashed into the back of every arrow, giving them a massive push.

The arrows shattered the sound barrier as their launch could be heard from streets away. They were all aimed at one location—the skull.
