Kireina smiled, suddenly feeling stronger after undergoing that small trial.
She realized that it was quite simple how to overcome it, she had to let them attack her until they all melded within her.
And then, she simply absorbed them into her body.
The power of Nirvana seemed strong, but the reason it was so strong was because it worked based on rules.
It affected minds and depended on different states of mind as well!
His invincible golden barrier was broken because he lacked harmony, and the same could be said for this technique to not work if Kireina didn't reject the burden anymore.
She accepted it and embraced it, and thought that without it, she wouldn't be herself!
To love a family is not to accept they're a burden and just live knowing it, it is to love that burden because it is what makes you who you are now.
Without the pains and burdens her family gave to her, she would have never strived to grow even stronger, she would have never come this far!
And she would have certainly never have come here to looking for her lost friends, which were a family for her.
"For my beloved family, I will tear apart the heavens, destroy hell, devour galaxies, and crush gods, demons, and constellations." Kireina spoke with a ruthless voice. "I don't need any other reason than them!"
"Y-You're crazy…" Nirvana himself had to admit it. "But that doesn't matter, you're not going to survive the rest of the Hells!"
Kireina flashed through space, piercing through Nirvana's defenses, Luminous sword shone brightly, laughing as he saw Kireina come back.
"This is why I trust on you so much, Kireina!"
As he roared, a powerful slash of draconic might surged from his sword, piercing through Nirvana's aura and barriers, shattering them and cutting one of his arms!
SLAAASH!
"UGH?!"
Nirvana tried to quickly defend, attacking Kireina with his two corrupted weapons. They overflowed with a crimson blood aura, his spear pierced Kireina's body while his sword slashed her neck!
"DIEEE!"
SLAAASH! SLAAASH! SLAAASH!
However, Kireina took the hits and swiftly regenerated back, her eyes filled with resolve, crimson and golden light combining together.
His attacks came with countless terrible memories of past lives, of agony and despair, yet Kireina remained unwavering!
"Why is she so calm?!" Nirvana Deus thought. "Wait, is she… finding True Harmony within her Chaos?! Impossible… Not even Buddha!"
"I understand it now…" Kireina smiled with unwavering resolve.
"You understand…?!" Nirvana said baffled. "What's there for a monster of chaos to UNDERSTAND?! You're endless unharmony!"
With frustration, Nirvana raised his weapons, combining them into a gigantic black axe!
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Second Infernal Naraka: Kalasutra]!"
Countless black threads surged from the axe, encompassing Kireina completely and trying to restraint her will once more.
These were the Second Hell's Black Threads of Torment, where the infernal guards are guided to punish the areas a person had accumulated their Sinful Essence!
"RAAAAH!"
With utter wrath, Nirvana tried to hack through Kireina's will and soul, slashing through her body countless times! At the same time, his Aura transformed, showing thousands of Hell Guards attacking her from all sides.
Their attacks could absorb her Sin's powers, weakening her severely!
CLAAASH!
"A SINFUL MONSTER LIKE YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT TRUE HARMONY IS!!!"
As he roared with utter frustration, Kireina defended with her powerful armor, while countering with her two weapons.
"Nah, I think I got this."
Kireina moved swiftly, each movement was calculated, precisely evading the deadly attacks, the Hell Guards turned into particles of light as they were pierced by Chaotic Stars that naturally emerged out of her Cosmic Aura.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
At the same time, her golden sword, Luminous, released waves of light, constantly cutting through Nirvana's threads trying to restrain Kireina.
SLAAASH!
"S-STOP!"
Nirvana tried to stop her from resisting, but Kireina's unwavering resolve didn't stop at all! Her axe of demonic power slashed through one of his legs!
SLAAASH!
"AARRRGH!"
Nirvana flew away, trying to regenerate his limbs, only to realize a strange power was stopping him from doing so, billions of tiny parasitic bacteria were inhibiting his regeneration.
And they all had the shape of small…
"Mandala Circles?! WHAT?!"
"You're losing your cool, where is the Harmony you boast so much about?"
Kireina flashed in front of him, Nirvana's eyes widened as he saw her overflowing with golden and dark powers, combining together.
"S-She… She's finding harmony… Between Chakra and Chaos?! NO!"
Nirvana grew desperate, conjuring two Hells at once!
His two weapons floated around him, transforming once more into a gigantic hammer of stone and trident of flames.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Third Infernal Naraka: Samghata]!"
Samghata, the Third Inferno of Naraka! Where sinful souls are crushed to death by gigantic mountains representing the burdens they did not let go.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Fourth Infernal Naraka: Raurava]!"
Raurava, the fourth Inferno of Naraka! Where the agonizing screams of the damned torment the sinful soul until they realize all the damage and pain they have caused.
A titanic hammer and a powerful blazing trident reached Kireina, both crushing her from the left and right.
She could hear her armor shattering and her bones breaking, while also hearing the screams of agony of the damned she has condemned!
BAAAM!
Her small body was once more thrown down like a ragdoll, landing on the floor, her body turned into a bloody mess of flesh and crushed bones!
"Hahaha… You can't resist the might of the Hells of Naraka!" Laughed Nirvana Deus. "This almighty power… It's all mine!"
As both weapons descended towards Kireina to finish her soul and crush her Oring, her flesh melted into swirling chaos and divine golden light!
Countless threads of spiritual energy from the entire Spiritual Plane slowly started flowing towards her, Nirvana was shocked.
"Wait, why…? Why is the Plane where we are… Helping her?!"
FLUOSH!
Her entire body was reformed in a split of a second, her sword and her axe slashed through both of his weapons, countless cracks appeared on them.
SLAAASH!
Crack, crack…!
"Y-You…!"
CRASH!
Kireina overcame two more Infernos!
"I've already decided to embrace the burdens, your hell has no power against me!" Kireina roared furiously. "And the screams of the damned… They're my music! I did what I did to them because I decided so… I regret the innocent ones, but I will NEVER regret the ones that deserved it."
"REPENT!!!"
Nirvana roared, his body suddenly beginning to grow hairy with many horns, his handsome face become slowly like that of a furious wolf.
"I WILL MAKE YOU REPENT, KIREINAAAAA!"
He rushed down towards her, summoning four weapons this time. He channeled the power of four more hells at once!
His Harmony and Wrathful Demonic Power flowed through them like threads of gold and crimson, combining into these new weapons.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Fifth Infernal Naraka: Maharaurava]!"
A giant black spear representing the great screams of the victims of those that prosper by hurting others.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Sixth Infernal Naraka: Tapana]!"
A blazing axe, embodying the rage of their sins, to burn the damned until flames come from their noses, ears, and eyes.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Seventh Infernal Naraka: Pratapana]!"
A giant red trident, ready to boil and burn those that have made others suffer terrible pain.
"[Demonic Mandala Arts]: [Eighth Infernal Naraka: Avici]!"
A massive cauldron, boiling with crimson blood, ready to burn and boil the damned for eternity.
Kireina faced these Trials as a gigantic Mandala Circle, glowing with both golden and black light surged behind her.
"[Chaotic Mandala Arts]: [Harmonious Chaos]"
FLAAASH!
