Corin and Rapheus stood back to back facing their adversaries. Little by little, they took their stance. Preparing themselves for the inevitable. Blue Pulser began to flow out of them, harmonizing with another as if a harmonic symphony was taking place. Suddenly, the two appeared aside Adonis' and Judace. The feared woman of The Imperial V drew her scythe in order to parry with Rapheus'. Though the Scythe phased past her own, vividly vanishing from sight and reappearing. It startled her a bit. However, Black chains caught Rapheus' scythe, stopping its momentum. Judace reached for his face, just before she dug her fingernails through his eyes. He quickly leaped away. As for his scythe, it vanished again and reappeared into Rapheus' grasps. Judace wasted no time to go chase him down. From the distance, she saw him swung his Scythe. From that swing unleashed a massive rift of Pulser that came speeding into her direction. Instinctively, she maneuvered herself from the incoming attack. Unfortunately, her own scythe had been chopped in half which caused her to go into a state of disbelief.

[Judace's self-conscious]: "He completely halved my scythe! As if it was butter!"

More rifts were opened, and a barrage of Pulser was released. She tried to form a Black Prism around the projectile, instead, it simply blew away from the attack's power. Judace did not attempt to take on the rifts force and decided to avoid it at all cost. "Yeah! There you go! Now you're learning!" Rapheus was ecstatic at Judace' new tactic of defense. This time, he tried to chase her. "Yo! By the way, you're not going to take me out by running, are you? If so, sounds like a PRET-TY unique technique! Oooh, bars." Shouted Rapheus, Judace did not take kindly of his childish attitude.

[Judace's self-conscious]: "Just our luck. Two Definitive Souls show up, and I have to deal with this guy. I can't take him head-on when he's discharging that particular ability. Nor' do I have any intentions of letting it strike me and hope it instantly suppresses into nothing. I already took off one seal, I can't humiliate myself to release another..."

Judace twirled in the air, evading every rift as she could. "I have to revive, Zero." She was getting anxious from this fight. Though as she attempted to run over to him, a blast of Pulser resembling light stood in her path. Adonis and Corin were on par with one another, however, Adonis still kept his distance and shot his white luminescent swords down at Corin. With ease, Corin sidestepped out of the way and jumped off of one of the discharged swords. With such athleticism. It was as if he's been at this for years, Adonis summoned another in his hand to clash against Corin's. Shockingly enough, his claymores cut cleanly through his.

"There isn't a damn thing I can't cut." Muttered Corin, it spooked Adonis so much he froze there for that split moment. Corin took the opportunity to cleave him in two, only for him to react. Electrical Sparks flew off the blade and stung his cheek. Corin leaped down to spring himself back up at Adonis, as the lightning fast Anarchist jumped wall to wall in order to catch Adonis off guard. He sprung up at him and swung his blades, unfortunately. It did not hit its target. But instead, a saint that played a shield for Adonis. The dismembered saint fell, leaving Corin disturbed by his actions. Adonis knocked Corin down with his wing as the dust of ashes flew in the wind.

"Do not worry yourself. They don't die unless I allow them to. The Pulser I've fragmented across my domain is divine. Hence why I am immortal." Stated Adonis, he landed down to the crater from where Corin landed.

"Immortal?" Repeated Corin in the smoke. The Saint stood up and was reconstructed by Adonis' Pulser.

"That's right. It's a Blessing, Gifted by not only me but the late Dameus of The Sacred Order. Even from a distance, I may change their Entity Pulse with my own Pulser. Gifting them something between the realms of men and God." Replied Adonis, right after he was done speaking. A sudden thud was heard, that thud came from Adonis' wing. Corin stood behind him, back to back as Blue Pulser erupted from him.
