Fugallo had thought of the possibility that Alice might only be using the white panties to deceive him and that the holy light he was seeing now originated from Alice herself. However, the problem with this assumption was that Alice couldn't possibly gain so much strength out of nowhere. Meanwhile, the only thing Alice had done during this period was take out a pair of panties and hold it in her hand.
Not to mention, if Alice could wield such terrifying strength without holding panties, she should have long since used it.
So, no matter how Fugallo looked at this situation, Alice had indeed gained a terrifying amount of strength after wielding the pair of white panties.
"He looks devastated," Andusia commented as she flew over to Alice and sat on the latter's shoulder. After all that fighting, her body was already covered in cracks, and her mind was exhausted. So, when she saw that Fugallo had seemingly lost the desire to fight, she promptly took the opportunity to catch her breath.
Meanwhile, it went without saying that Fugallo was devastated. He had expended so much time and energy to acquire his current strength, and he might have even become stronger than even the First Demon King, who was rumored to be the strongest out of all Demon Kings. Yet, despite having such strength, he had ended up losing to a pair of panties?
Demon Kings were prideful creatures, and Fugallo was no exception. He was also an ambitionist who aimed to transform the entire world into one big demon realm and convert all humans into demons to achieve his dream of a world without racial barriers. Yet, just as he was about to succeedhis plans were ruined by a pair of panties.
Any person with even the slightest bit of pride would have difficulty stomaching this situation, let alone a mighty Demon King.
As a Demon King herself, Andusia could more or less guess that Fugallo was currently on the brink of mental collapse, and she couldn't help but look at his junior sympathetically.
"B-Bastard I absolutely will not allow such a thing to happen"
After a short moment, Fugallo snapped out of his daze and lifted his head to look at Alice and Andusia. Although the bright light from Alice's right hand was interfering with his vision, he could still clearly see Alice's and Andusia's visages.
The blatantly obvious sympathetic expression Alice and Andusia made was something he had only shown others in the past. He never thought there would come a day when he would be on the receiving end of such an expression. Immediately, he stood up and began gathering mana in a fit of rage.
"I haven't lost yet! I've already perfected my possession magic! I can possess an unlimited number of Demon King's Shadows! My strength will not have an upper limit!" Fugallo shouted, behaving like a standard movie villain.
However, Fugallo's claims weren't false. Every Demon King's Shadow he possessed granted him a frightening boost in strength. If he possessed another Demon King's Shadow at this time, not only could he promptly recover from his injuries, but he could also receive a significant boost to his strength.
Alice's expression sank when she heard Fugallo's words, her right hand tightening its grip over the white panties. She was ready to activate the panties' active skill at a moment's notice. She absolutely could not allow Fugallo to possess another Demon King's Shadow.
However, before either side could do anything, a loud explosion suddenly came from the distance. Although the explosion's origin was some distance away from the battlefield Alice, Andusia, and Fugallo fought on, the three of them possessed hearing far superior to that of the average person, so they still managed to hear it.
Meanwhile, when the three turned toward the explosion, they realized that it originated from the same direction as they came from. In other words, the explosion came from Haydn's mansion, which also happened to be where Haydn had set up the core of the Demon King's Shadow taboo.
The Possession-type Demon King's Shadow required a core to facilitate its operation. This was something Alice and Andusia were aware of. Only, because Fugallo had been keeping them busy all this time, they never had any opportunities to destroy the taboo's core inside the mansion. Hence, Fugallo had so many opportunities to turn the tables on them.
However, they didn't think someone else would destroy the Possession-type Demon King's Shadow's core at this critical juncture.
"What?!" Fugallo revealed an expression of horror. He didn't think a third party would attack his base when he was keeping Alice and Andusia busy. "Impossible I used a special taboo to construct the core of Demon King's Shadow. There's no way the average person can destroy it, so how"
Fugallo was naturally aware the biggest flaw in his plan was the taboo core in Haydn's mansion. While active, this taboo core could continuously produce new Demon King's Shadows for him to possess. However, once it was destroyed, the production of Demon King's Shadows would naturally come to a halt.
Meanwhile, although the taboo core was strong enough to withstand normal attacks, it was nowhere near strong enough to withstand attacks from offensive taboos. Hence, to prevent Alice and Andusia from breaking the taboo core, Fugallo had done everything he could to keep them busy and prevent them from leaving the battlefield. Yet, now
"The average person can't destroy it?" Alice was initially stunned when she heard Fugallo's trembling voice. However, she quickly realized what had happened. "I see Andusia, did you leave Luna the location of Haydn's mansion?"
"I did. After sensing your general location, I left Luna a note telling her to come here once she regains consciousness," Andusia said, smiling. Then, in an amused tone, she continued, "I didn't think she would arrive at such a good time"
Indeed, the average person might not have the strength to destroy the taboo core created by Fugallo, but Luna wasn't your average person. Instead, she was someone who wielded Demon King-level strength. Destroying a taboo core would be a piece of cake for her.
Meanwhile, although Fugallo didn't know who had destroyed the taboo core he had left in the mansion, it was obvious that the next Demon King's Shadow he was expecting would not be arriving anymore. This also meant that he no longer had any way to turn the tide.
No He still had a chance. Since Alice could obtain such terrifying power from that thing, then maybe he, too, could
Fugallo was already at his wit's end. Left with no better options, he gradually lowered his head and set his sights on the pair of white panties held in Alice's glowing right hand.
