Unlike with the usual Dark Magic, neither Arthur nor Zodiak were able to absorb it, however, it didn't take long for it to slowly contract into a singular black sphere floating far away above the enemy forces. This sphere was actually an entity known as Sol'khin, the first son of Timos, the Black Devil.
He was only a fragment of the past but that doesn't mean he can't hurt them. Quite the contrary, in fact, this Sol'khin is not only strong but he's dangerous to both Arthur and Zodiak, who can only rely on Dark Magic, which basically what the current enemy is made of.

"Come to think of it, I have always noticed a difference between Arthur and Zodiak's Dark Magic."
The Joker commented while watching the two individuals facing the countless disoriented Cthulhu.
"Technically, it's the same Dark Magic but it's indeed that the difference is rather huge."
