Ravens rained down on Douglas, their sharp beaks constantly pecking at his body.
The sharp beaks left scorched marks on the demon scales.
Douglas roared in anger, rapidly spinning the Rubik's Cube in his hand. A black light bloomed and merged into his body, "Demon Contract: Gluttony!"
Instantly, black maggots suddenly grew from the wounds pecked by the Ravens, biting the attacking flock.
The Ravens that were bitten rapidly shriveled at a visible speed, eventually turning into a pile of ashes that scattered with the wind.
These slender black maggots even wriggled their bodies, attempting to bite the Evil Crow King.
The Evil Crow King let out a furious cry, shaking his wings to shoot out a large number of black feathers, then quickly retreated.
The brief opportunity created by the Evil Crow King had allowed Cana to complete the accumulation of her ultimate move.
At this moment, six cards floated in front of Cana.
Six colors of magical power converged into a huge and mysterious magic circle at her feet.
"It's probably hard to win against you with ordinary attacks, right?" Cana looked at Douglas with firm eyes, aiming her hands at the cards in front of her, releasing a large amount of magical power from her body and injecting it into the cards.
Cana was indeed a Holder-type Mage. The power of the magic sealed within the cards was determined by how much power she used to activate them with her own magical power.
However, this did not mean that the cards' power could not be increased.
Theoretically, by injecting a large amount of magical power into a single card, the power of the magic sealed within it could be enhanced.
It's just that such an operation required extremely high control, otherwise the card would most likely directly explode.
What Cana was doing now was injecting a large amount of magical power from her body into her strongest attack cards, and furthermore, fusing these cards of different attributes to increase their power.
However, forcibly fusing magical power of different attributes produced a powerful backlash, causing the skin on her hands to crack and bleed.
"Ice and lightning, light and darkness, water and fire, converge here!" Cana gritted her teeth and shouted loudly.
In an instant, azure ice crystals intertwined with purple lightning snakes, clashing and emitting dazzling light;
Amidst the holy light, dark whirlpools surged endlessly, two completely opposite forces fiercely confronting each other;
Water and fire merged, forming an emerald storm, a storm containing an astonishing aura of destruction.
Under Cana's control, the six-colored torrent transformed into a colossal pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth. Wherever it passed, the air violently twisted, as if being kneaded by an invisible giant hand.
Douglas's face changed drastically at the sight. He quickly raised the Rubik's Cube in front of him.
Six skulls spewed out fiercely burning black flames. These black flames intertwined, forming an inverted cross barrier that stood before him.
The two forces collided violently in mid-air. In an instant, it was as if the entire world trembled.
The ground within a hundred meters collapsed, forming a massive crater.
Energy turbulence, like rampant beasts, shredded the nearest ancient trees into powder, sending wood chips flying.
At the center of the battle, a sphere of light, like a miniature sun, ignited, its dazzling brilliance making it impossible to look directly at.
The Evil Crow King suddenly emerged from Cana's shadow, spreading his smoke-emitting wings, tightly shielding Cana.
As the strong light gradually faded, the battlefield finally regained some calm.
At this moment, Douglas knelt on one knee at the bottom of the lava pit, looking utterly disheveled.
The surface of the Rubik's Cube in his hand was covered with dense cracks, as if it could shatter at any moment.
His left arm was unnaturally twisted, clearly broken, and one of his horns was snapped off, blood slowly flowing down his cheek.
"It's impossible to lose to a human..."
"How could I fall here?" Douglas let out a maniacal laugh, using his remaining right hand to support himself and stagger to his feet.
"Humans cannot defeat me!"
He savagely tore off his broken left arm with his teeth, then thrust the severed arm into the skull's mouth of the Rubik's Cube.
"Witness the true Demon Contract!" His voice was hoarse and insane, as if coming from the depths of hell.
In an instant, pitch-black energy surged out from the cracks of the Rubik's Cube, and ten shadowy tentacles rapidly grew from the severed arm, dancing wildly in the air as if they had a life of their own.
Douglas's skin began to crack inch by inch, revealing the surging magma veins beneath. The magma emitted a scorching glow, intertwining with the dark aura around him, forming a strange and terrifying sight.
With every step he took, the ground ignited with long-burning black flames. The black flames spread rapidly, carbonizing the surrounding vegetation in an instant, leaving only a scorched earth.
Cana wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her hands bleeding profusely and staining the ground beneath her, yet her eyes remained firm.
"Before, this kind of guy should have been left to Mira to deal with, right?"
Cana thought for a moment, then tremblingly raised her hands, taking out all the remaining cards from her pocket. A handful of colorful cards, soaked in her blood, were clutched in her hands.
Cana took a deep breath, a long white mist escaping from both sides of her mouth. Looking at Douglas, who was walking towards her with a ferocious expression, she said, "What a troublesome guy..."
"But, I am from Fairy Tail!" Cana leaned on the Evil Crow King, widening her eyes and shouting at Douglas.
"Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Ice, Lightning, Light, Darkness, Element Fusion!" All her remaining magical power erupted from within her body, pouring into the cards in her hands. Cana's black hair flew wildly from the energy's vibration, her strong conviction almost tangible.
The Evil Crow King flapped his wings, throwing Cana onto his back, then spread his wings and carried Cana into the air.
"This is the final blow! You bastard!" Cana stood on the Evil Crow King's back, her eyes wide, and forcefully threw the cards in her hands at Douglas below, "Fairy's Resolve! Chaos Storm!"
Dozens of cards flew out together, and various energies exploded in mid-air.
An incredibly powerful chaotic energy instantly erupted.
Azure, yellow, fiery red, blue-violet, gold, blue... various energies converged in front of Cana, then merged into a thick, colorful pillar of energy!
The elemental energies of different attributes briefly maintained a balance.
Then, the pillar of light descended from the sky with a world-destroying momentum.
Douglas, seeing this, roared wildly, throwing his head back. He twisted the ten tentacles into a spiral drill. At the same time, the core of the Rubik's Cube erupted with a powerful, black-hole-like suction, attempting to swallow the pillar of energy.
The two forces collided violently, creating a shockwave that exploded on the ground like a bomb, plowing a circular valley into the battlefield.
The clouds in the sky were also torn open by this powerful force, creating a huge void. Sunlight streamed through the void, illuminating the scarred battlefield.
When the dust finally settled, the entire battlefield was eerily silent.
Cana knelt on the crystallized ground of solidified lava, looking extremely miserable.
Most of her clothes had turned to ash and scattered with the wind. Her right eye was also burned by the energy, rendering her unable to see, and blood slowly flowed down her cheek.
And in the deep pit a hundred meters away, Douglas's Rubik's Cube had shattered into dust, scattered around him.
The right side of his body, along with half of his head, had disappeared, the edges of the wound carbonized, and blood stained his clothes.
The horned demon struggled, trying to say something, but his broken vocal cords could only emit faint hisses.
His eyes were filled with unwillingness and despair.
Finally, in the sunlight of a clearing sky, Douglas's remains turned into a pile of black ashes, scattering with the wind, as if he had never existed in this world.
Cana struggled to stand up, a grim but happy smile on her face, and raised her right hand to make a gesture understood only by those from Fairy Tail.
