"You bastard! Kireina!"
"How dare you stop the ritual mother created with so much effort!"
"Kill her!"
"Take the child! She is the Gate! Hurry!"
Among the Outer Gods, there were a few incredibly large ones. These were all High Rank Outer Gods, as strong as Tier 1 Galaxy Rulers. With their power and authority, they commanded the rest of the Outer Gods to fight. Titanic tentacles capable of tearing apart entire worlds constantly attacked Kireina and Scarlet, but mother and daughter swiftly made their way through them.
"Stay at my side, Scarlet!" Kireina roared, as she swung her claws and her wings, shredding hundreds of tentacles and Lesser Outer Gods that threw themselves in front of her.
"I'll fight too! I hate them! Bastards!!!" Scarlet wasn't going to just let her mother protect her, she swiftly swung her titanic body, slamming it into several Outer Gods. Their bodies immediately being covered by countless bite wounds. Some of them even completely eaten.
And that wasn't all, as she unleashed her fury, her Aura transformed into a sea of crimson centipedes, swarming everything on her path. The Outer Gods were devoured one by one, fueling her power even further. Scarlet was slowly getting used to her new transformation.
"Uuuggh! Dammit! These bastards won't stop coming!"
Meanwhile, Gaby complained as the gigantic trident imbued with azure oceanic water and divine thunder swiftly broke apart again. Hundreds of tentacles coiling around it and destroying it. The titan they had created through the fusion of their Souls and Auras was slowly beginning to fall apart.
"Hang in there for a while longer! D-Don't lose hope!"
Agatheina constantly used her powers to unleash a storm of blood projectiles, but the Outer Gods were gigantic and tough as small moons, many small projectiles would do very little against them.
"Your lives end here, pathetic worms!"
One of the largest Outer Gods, resembling a smaller Shub-Niggurath, but with red flesh and blue eyes roared, slamming the titan with her dozens of hoofed legs and then absorbing their Time Force, slowing them down greatly.
"I, Nhag-Shiggurath, will avenge mother and replace her in the swarm!" She laughed. "And I shall begin by slaughtering and devouring the family of the one that killed her! DIE, you lowly ants!"
The titan was slammed by the powerful Outer Goddess, slowly beginning to crumble apart. Aura and Lucifer tried to help, but they were already being overwhelmed too. If things continued in this battle of attrition, everyone was bound to lose! The forces of the Outer Plane were simply too overwhelming. It was the largest Universe in the entire Dimension after all.
"Dammit, the Daos won't hold our fusion together any longer… We're running low on cosmic energy!" Gaby cried. "We have to quickly evacuate, let's teleport away!"
"We can't, Gaby! We're literally in a wormhole, space and time are twisting together. If we teleport the old way, we will get shredded to pieces!" Agatheina roared.
"What? Then how can Kireina and the other monster's teleport?!" Asked Gaby.
"They don't teleport…" Luminous said. "I've noticed it, but they literally tear apart the dimensional pillars to move through them. It is another technique completely. Shifting would be a more accurte word than teleportation!"
"Shit! Alright then, Valentia, Aarae, you two to my divine realm, I'll-"
Before they could muster any other words, a gigantic crimson centipede appeared above them, rushing towards the daughter of Shub-Niggurath and biting her countless limbs off with several and precise attacks.
"ROOAARR! Leave my family alone!"
With a mighty roar, Scarlet fought the Outer Goddess with everything she had. The power of the Abyss Gate Fragments activating and imbuing her with all their power at once. Her claws slashing through Nhag-Shiggurath while her titanic mandibles tore apart her eyes.
"Y-YOUUU! You're nothing but a tool! How DARE you fight back?!"
Nhag-Shiggurath stretched her giant tentacles and fused them together, and then harnessed Materialized Stopped Time around them. She was one of her mother's most prodigious children, inheriting most of her abilities. Her titanic fists reached Scarlet, slowly beginning to shatter her crimson chitinous armor.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
"Uggghh…!"
Scarlet was being slowly overwhelmed, her Time was being absorbed and she was becoming slower, while the vicious Nhag-Shiggurath became faster! This was the horrendous advantage Shub-Niggurath had over her own mother. Scarlet could not even begin to comprehend how hard it was for her mama to defeat such a monster.
However, as she was being attacked, a flash of blue light emerged above Nhag-Shiggurath, Kireina appeared above her. Her two wings fusing with two of her arms. She swiftly used Absolute Cosmic Enchantment into them, as a titanic spear made of blue cosmic metal was created in an instant!
"[Absolute Cosmic Enchantment: Body] + [Absolute Cosmic Enchantment: Ego] + [Impenetrable Primordial Chaos Armored Cocoon Body] = [Star-Piercing Cosmic Spear Of Oblivion: Gungnir]!"
A new Ego was created in a split of a second, Kireina's titanic spear descended towards Nhag-Shiggurath, the Outer Goddess gritting her teeth as she swiftly phased through the Void to evade the attack, only for the spear to simply chase her down!
"What kind of weapon is that?!"
She continued phasing through the void while trying to evade the spear, only to be found by the weapon over and over again. He giant tentacles shaped into spears, as she tried to destroy the weapon by attacking it a thousand times in a single second.
CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!
The spear continued gaining cracks until it exploded, finally being destroyed! The Outer Goddess smiled, quickly beginning to think she would soon surpass her mother and replace her within their hierarchy. However, she was terribly wrong.
The fragments of the spear suddenly turned into a hundred smaller spears, impaling her gigantic body like a storm of needles and slowly shredding her into pulp, easily shattering any Void Barriers she held!
"GRYYYAAAGGHH!"
She quickly tried to use her Time Abilities, but realized Kireina was absorbing her own Time Flow this time! She was using her mother's abilities as if she was born with them!
"M-Monster…!"
BOOOMMM!!!
Before she could say another word, Shub-Niggurath's daughter died as bitterly as her mother.
