Blasts of fire and light illuminated the frozen cave that Aurelia and Zareen found as the sight of their battle.

Their opponent was a devil that looked the most human out of any of the ones that were their enemy.

Other than having light blue skin, the characteristic horns and wings, along with golden eyes, she looked remarkably like a regular person in stature and appearance.

In fact, in some ways she looked similar to Mrazivý when she used her draconic transformation.

For her weapons she wielded a double ended silver spear that was constantly emitting a chilling mist around it.

She was also the devil at the lowest level begin only level sixty-five. But this did not mean she was weakest, as she was a superior devil only lower in rank than the archdevil she served.

Her ice powers and skill with a spear were impeccable, and as Aurelia and Zareen had already found out she possessed the ability to pierce even their golden fur that boasted absurd resistance to being damaged.

This was why they were keeping moving and firing off ranged attack with their race abilities that gave them control over light for Aurelia and fire for Zareen.

However, the ice devil woman was able to seamlessly use her unique skill to create an area around her that could even freeze light and fire. Effectively stopping any attack that Zareen and Aurelia threw at her.

They were at a bit of a stalemate as she was undoubtably slower than the two mythic grade golden lions, but her defense was not easily penetrated and in close combat she was superior.

Attacks continued to fly from the three of them without any real progress begin made, until Zareen got fed up and used one of the unique skills she had acquired.

Her mana began to spike rapidly, and she stopped moving and opened her mouth.

Aurelia seeing this tried to get her to stop, but it was already too late, and she began running away to get out of range of the attack.

"You must be a real idiot to expose your weak point like that." The ice devil said as she launched a fast-moving ice spike right towards Zareen's open mouth.

Except before the attack hit Zareen unleashed her unique skill attack and let loose an impossibly loud roar.

The ice magic coming for her immediately lost all its momentum and shattered into a fine dust and the sonic blast of Zareen's Roar of Majesty continued forward towards the ice devil.

Along the way the ice that made up the cave they were in began to crack and shatter and the entire landscape was warped.

When the attack hit the ice devil, she tried to encase herself in a pillar of snow, but it could not withstand the shockwaves and she was blown away in an avalanche worth of ice.

"You really should pay better attention to your surroundings and not commit to an attack that leaves you so open afterwards when you do not know what you enemy can do." The ice devils said when she suddenly appeared from behind Zareen.

She had not been truly fighting them since they started their ranged bombardment and had left an ice mirage in her place. Then she hid under the ice and moved over to Zareen the instant she stopped and prepared to unleash a powerful attack.

A moment later she jammed her silver spear into Zareen's side and even the golden fur protecting her only blocked the weapon for a second before she was run-through.

The ice-cold spear sunk seep into her body, and she felt her left lung get pierced

Immense pain assaulted her, and blood began pouring out of her mouth.

Yet the worst had only begun as the chilling aura around the spear began invading her body and freezing her from the inside out.

In an attempt to push back the ice devil and melt her freezing body, Zareen burst into flames with as much power as she could.

Fire and ice fought each other, and steam erupted around Zareen and the ice devil. But in the end, Zareen's flames started to dimmish.

She tried to physically push the ice devil off next, but her movements were sluggish from her dropping temperature and the ice that was building up around her. Though this did not explain why she was moving as slowly as she was, and it soon became clear that the ice devil's spear had a slowing effect on it.

"You certainly are tough, as expected from a mythic grade beast. Yet even you will die when I pierce through your head." The ice devil said as she yanked her spear out and positioned it to strike again.

Zareen no longer pinned down by the spear in her side tried to get away, but her body was moving too slowly now to outmaneuver the ice devil.

It seemed she would be peppered with attacks from the spear until she died and could only put up a resistance that slowed her demise.

Thankfully before she received another blow, Aurelia jumped back in with fury in her eyes for the injuries her sister had taken.

Large rings of light began flying off her body that targeted down the ice devil and kept going at her until they were destroyed.

The ice devil under this assault had to back away from Zareen, and when she was pushed far enough away Aurelia jumped in front of her injured sister.

Multiple balls of light then flew off her body, surrounded Zareen, and began healing her.

This was one of Aurelia's unique skills called Versatile Luminescence.

It was a power that crated six balls of light that could each contain the same or different powers depending on the users will.

They could attack, defend, support, and heal in numerous ways.

Overall, it was not the most powerful unique skill, but its ability to adapt to the situation made it incredibly useful.

With it and turning all six balls to healing, Aurelia was able to rapidly fix the massive damage her sister had taken.

"Don't think I will just let you recover." The ice devil said once she had recovered from Aurelia's vicious assault.

Swiftly she jumped back towards the two golden lionesses and began teaming with mana as she prepared to attack with a powerful thrust.

To intercept the coming attack Aurelia moved four of her balls of light created by her unique skill and switched them to defense. Creating a four layered barrier of light in in front of her and her sister.

In one thrust from the ice devil broke through three of the four barriers. which shattered into glass like pierces of light.

Still, this was enough, and with the healing she had received from Aurelia and her own natural regeneration Zareen was able to jump away and Aurelia covered their retreat by switching one of her other balls of light from healing to attack and sending out a ray of scorching light.

Narrowly they both created some distance from the ice devil and kept themselves moving to prevent taking any more attacks while they came up with a new plan.

Eventually they decided that their best bet was to simply try to exhausted the ice devil until she ran out of mana.

They were fighting together, so collectively they should have had more mana and figured that a war of attrition would end in their favor.

Naturally the ice devil noticed that they were no longer really trying to kill her, and were just taking ranged shots at her to force her to waste her energy.

"I see. Not a bad plan." The ice devils aid in between blocking and dodging attacks. "But this just means that I cannot afford to hold anything back."

"Frozen Hell!"

The moment the ice devil activated this unique skill waves of mana began firing out from her body and began sucking all of the heat into them.

This ability stole the energy from the surrounding area and created an area that was so cold that most things could barely move.

Aurelia and Zareen felt the effects pretty much immediately, and Zareen recognized that it was similar to the power of the devil's spear.

Trapped within the world of immense cold, both Zareen and Aurelia felt their bodies slowing down despite all of their skills and race abilities that should have been making them faster.

The ice devil, however, was not burdened by the dropping temperature, and while she was not moving any faster than before, it seemed like she had suddenly gotten an extreme boost in her speed.

Both the golden lionesses tried to use their defensive powers to block the ice devil's assault, but their slowed reactions made them unable to properly avoid all of her attacks.

"Die."

After beating them both down and leaving them with horrid wounds, the ice devil finally delivered a killing blow to Aurelia who had been using her unique skill to heal her and her sister to prolong the battle.

It was a calculated move to end their resistance, but the ice devil did not realize that it was a mistake.

As her chest was pierced and her heart destroyed, Aurelia met her end for a few moments before a halo of silver light appeared above her.

It then flashed out and sent an unavoidable blast of light at the ice devil and sent her sprawling across the ice.

The halo engulfed Aurelia immediately after, and the fatal wounder she had just incurred closed up and she was restored to full health with the activation of her unique skill Searing Resurrection.
