Chapter 110: Turning point
                          
"Hello Lilith! You ran away from me.... again. Don't you remember what happened last time you did it? It didn't work out so well, didn't it? And yet you never learn." The strongest demon lord spoke in an arrogant tone as she looked at the trio who has gathered below her.
                          
Slowly descending from the sky and landing on the ground, the demoness looked at the fools who dared stand in her way: one used to be her comrade, one whose existence was so trivial she could erase it in seconds and the final one, an old acquaintance who was killed by her own hands was now standing in front of her once more. Anyone would freak out in that situation when the person you killed decided to show up again but that was not the case for the demon lord. 
                          
"Asmodeus...." Lilith uttered. "Before we fight, I want to ask something."
                          
"....What is it?" questioned Asmodeus.
                          
"Why are you helping Alastor? Sullivan told me of your obsession with him. Why?"
                          
"Did he now?" the demoness stared at the dwarf who immediately hid himself away behind the little girl. 
                          
"Is this because of Killian?" 
                          
As soon as that name was mentioned, Lilith along with her two allies was blast away from their position. But to their realization, that was not even an attack yet. That shockwave was merely the peak of the iceberg that was Asmodeus' power. Her sheer aura was capable of do just that. It made one wonder about the true nature of the demoness. She could not be a simple elf that turned into a demon. That was simply not possible considering her true strength.
                          
"You truly never learn. If you wish to die that much, then let me give it to you! This time, I will make sure that not a single trace of your wretched existence is left." Asmodeus grunted in fury. 
                          
"<Earth Splinter>" 
                          
With a single fist, the demoness split the soil, creating a fissure that expanded for miles toward the trio. Using their quick reflexes, all three escaped to the sides from harm. However, the same could not be said to the soldiers behind them who fell into the rift before it somehow closed itself back.
                          
"How?" Viviana uttered in shock. She thought that she has prepared herself enough after hearing the rumours of the power of Asmodeus but this was completely a different story. "What the hell is she?" 
                          
"You are wrong about one thing, Lilith. This is not a fight. This is a massacre! I will put an end to this pointless conflict with my own hands.
                          
<Terra Forma>" 
                          
Once again, a large earthquake shook the entire continent of Mara as cracks appeared on the ground. Large pieces of stone rose from the fissures and stayed afloat before falling down again, crushing the troops who were scattering around in fear.
                          
"I shall reshape this wretched world! You will all die for what you have done!" Asmodeus proclaimed, raising both her hands to the sky.
                          
"Damn it you still hold a grudge after that long? His death was not anyone's fault." The Goddess tried to reason with the demon lord.
                          
"DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT HIM!" With the chaos still ongoing around, the demoness vanished in an instant. Moving at light speed, she lunged herself at the little girl before throwing a shattering fist. 
                          
"Ragnarok, come to me!" A molten sword of lava manifested itself in Lilith's hands, blocking Asmodeus' attack. The weight was so heavy Lilith almost sunk into the ground with a crater under her foot. Her hands were shaking, doing their best to resist the overwhelming force that was put on them.
