Floating in the air Zesshi can be seen observing the battle that's about to begin below her while hiding her presence.

As Maria's group managed to catch up to Scarlet's group now ended in a standoff as the two looked at each other when Scarlet spoke.

(Scarlet)

"Yo Maria! How are ya? Ready to accept that I'm superior than you?"

(Maria)

"It is nice to meet you Scarlet, It's been a while since we last fought though it ended in a tie. This time I'd rather want this war to end."

(Scarlet)

"Indeed I'd rather sleep or eat food than fight in this stupid war!"

As Maria took out her lance, Scarlet got her halberd ready.

(Maria)

"Everyone please doesn't interfere directly with our fight, just make sure no outside interference comes in ok?"

(Light faction army)

"Yes Ma'am!"

Scarlet looked behind her and said.

(Scarlet)

"Now you little bugger's job is to make sure those little buggers at the other side don't ruin my fight with Maria ok?"

(Dark Faction Army)

"Yes, Big sister!"

As both armies charge at each other on the left and right sides of the Battlefield leaving room for Maria and Scarlet in the middle.

Standing in front of each other both girls ready their weapons as Scarlet made the first move. Activating her speed skills she arrive in front of Maria and swung her Halberd with immense speed.

'Clang'

(Scarlet)

"As always you and your monstrous strength!"

She said looking at Maria who was just smiling at her while blocking the halberd with her lance.

(Maria)

"I appreciate such kind words though if not for my fast reaction I'd be split in half due to your speed, don't I?"

Maria knocked Scarlet away and then dash into her for a stab with her lance. Seeing this scarlet once again used her speed to escape and reposition herself to attack Maria at the back. Only for Maria to suddenly turn around and thrust her lance at her.

(Scarlet)

"Tch, Overcharged!"

Activating her skill that used even more of her energy she managed to avoid the thrust. As they continue their fight Zesshi who's looking above them is looking happily.

(Shio)

"I know you want to fight them right now but I think we should deal with the army first as the Mission stated. Now that we've seen what they can mostly do I'm pretty sure we can just wipe out the army and then fight them again if they already tire themselves out."

(Zesshi)

"But Shio who can I enjoy fighting if there already spent?"

(Shio)

"As much as I'd like to agree with you we're here to capture and tame them not kill so id rather do it when they're weak. We both know that even though we might be able beat and capture one of them, we can't capture both them if they are at full strength. Now hurry up we still have to finish the first mission."

(Zesshi)

"Hmm, fine it's not like I can ever disagree with you anyways."

She sighs and then proceeds to the area where the main army of both factions is fighting.

(Back to Scarlet and Maria's fight)

(Scarlet)

"Your Skill Predict is such a cheat! Especially with your strength, it's too annoying!"

She said barely dodging Maria's thrust.

(Maria)

"Haaaa, No matter how much I use predict I still can't catch you before I run out of energy. How about your skill Overcharged as long as you have the energy you can increase your speed without limit!."

Then silence spread as the two looked at each other and smiled.

(Scarlet)

"Hey, Maria how about we finally end this?"

(Maria)

"Tho I still have a lot of things to fix at the kingdom I do agree with you. War is never gonna be a win to anyone as losses will always be made."

Both put back their weapon and pulled out another weapon, a Katana for Scarlet and Rapier for Maria. Soon a huge amount of Mana flooded the area knocking both armies unconscious. Raising their swords Maria and Scarlet spoke.

(Maria)

"I, Maria Roseweiss the will of my kingdom thereby request thee light grant me strength to overcome such adversities, Release!"

Soon the sword glowed brightly as wings of pure light energy emerge on Maria's back while emitting a Light aura around her.

(Scarlet)

"Yo Dark give this one strength to protect this one's Empire, as I Scarlet Ravelfall will end in an awesome way, Release!"

As Dark wings come out of her back while also being enveloped by a Dark aura, Scarlet smiled at Maria.

(Scarlet)

"Here I come, Maria!"

(Maria)

"Indeed I shall as well, Scarlet!"

As The two charged at each other betting on this one attack will decide the fate of their Kingdoms/empires not knowing that this was their last chance of preventing something horrible.

(Main battlefield)

(Zesshi)

"Shio can I get access to those spells from the players that you've copied?"

(Shio)

"Fine but the next use must still need my permission I don't want you to suddenly use another one and bury a city down the ground."

(Zesshi)

"Thank you!"

As Zesshi thanked Shio, she then looked down and raised her hand.

(Zesshi)

"Widen magic: Meteor fall!"

Soon the world started to shake as every single soldier below stopped fighting and looked up only to see a giant flaming rock falling from the sky.

(Random Light Soldier 1)

"Wha- what is that!"

(Random Dark soldier 1)

"No-no the world's ending!"

(Light captain 2)

"This thing... I can sense mana from it! How is that even possible even the War maidens cannot do something like this!"

(Dark captain 2)

"Heh, looks like someone out there is finally fed up with our wars and decided to end it themselves... Sorry dear, I won't be coming home... Take care of our chil-"

'Boom!'

As soon as the Meteor hits the ground it created an explosion spanning several miles eliminating everything in its vicinity.

(Zesshi)

"Woah, So these are the powers players use in the age of gods huh? It's beautiful!"

(Shio)

"Please don't start nuking everything you see."

Looking at the screen Zesshi looked happy and asked Shio.

(Zesshi)

"So, what's our next course of action?"

(Shio)

"We will capture the two, plant seeds into them, and finally make them submit to us willingly by killing their own people in front of them!"

(Zesshi)

"Oh, the usual strategy you mean?"

(Shio)

"I guess you can call it that haha."

(Zesshi)

"Haaa let's just go and get this over with. But I wonder can we see their stats?"

(Shio)

"Hmmm maybe let's just ask about the trial. Hey, trial system or something can you show us the stats for Maria and Scarlet?"
