"Unfortunately, in reality, there is no situation where one can win merely by following the rules. There will be knights that break the rules and even chess pieces that betray him."

"What is this? What are you doing to me? This is impossible. STOP you disgusting humans." The Dark Phoenix screeched in pain and annoyance as it felt its strength being constantly drained from it without its permission.

"Why should we? Weren't you doing the same thing to me up until now, feeding on me like a goddamn parasite? How does it feel now little birdie? It's a taste of your own medicine you know." Jean mocked Dark Phoenix with a proud smile on her face.

"You will regret this." The Dark Phoenix screamed as suddenly its dark nefarious-looking aura of psionic energy began to emit from its body and rush towards Jean in an ominous way.

Jean however didn't dodge or try to evade this. Instead, she boldly began to emit her own psionic energy which appeared like a silvery aura compared to the evil bird's dark one. Tendrils of two different types of psionic energies then began to wrestle each other for dominance as they clashed against each other in an epic showdown looking like a scene straight from an anime.

It seemed that the winner would only be determined with one of them winning fairly and overpowering the other but sadly this was reality, a reality where somebody like Rudeus existed. He didn't like playing by the rules and since he was allowed to cheat here without any repercussions, he would use this opportunity to its full extent.

He wasn't able to use magic in this space but he could use all of his own bloodline abilities and most of his divine powers. So, aiming at completely leveraging profit from this situation he made his move.

"Almighty Push" He used Rinnegan's OP repelling ability to its full extent and surprised the poor little bird by using a force on it that could potentially level cities.

The Dark Phoenix was caught in his surprise attack and was thrown away with the force and both its focus and expert control over its own psionic energy faltered which resulted in Jean getting the upper hand.

However Rudeus didn't stop there, he continued bombarding it with his own divine energy constructs like swords, spears, and arrows as well as spamming multiple divine energy blasts on it until he began to feel his own divine energy reserves dwindling from continuous overuse. He was sure that by now he had probably spammed more melee weapons than any war in human history (at least he liked to believe that).

The massive bombardment had even caused a small area of the white-hot room to change color a little as red mist-like smoke covered the scene, proof of the heavy divine energy saturation in the area.

"If this happened back in your mortal world, your planet would have suffered from some heavy damage. Divine energy although nourishing in some cases can be equally destructive and can cause long-term effects like corruption and mutation of living beings as well as degradation of the realm's reality and existence itself if strong enough. And your particular divine energy is anything but weak. It's aimed at not nourishment but to dominate everything it touches, proving its own superiority." The Phoenix force commented in an expressionless manner like it was merely stating a known fact.

Jean however didn't react at all to Rudeus' attacks keeping all her thoughts to herself. She just concentrates on manipulating and maintaining her own psionic energy tendrils while looking out for any signs of the Dark Phoenix.

Once the 'smoke' cleared, the huge dark figure of the evil birdie again became visible but this time it was in a really poor shape as it looked like a malnourished, battered, and diseased bird that could die at any point. Even its wild dark flames seemed to be reduced to mere embers of its past glory.
