Zyla snapped her fingers creating a barrier around chase, teleporting him next to her, enclosed in a box. "Teca I want you up against macel." She ordered sitting on the floating pillow.

"That's cheating!" Wes yelled out. "You can't do that!"

"Oh yea?" Zyla smirked glaring at him. "Are you gonna stop me?" She questioned. "As I thought." She responded due to his silence.

She watched as everyone fought above, her team was handling themselves, Teca was struggling a bit but she stood her ground.

Teca formed her weapon as macel took out his staff. Their weapons were similar since hers was a double bladed sword.

The two ran at each other clashing, macel overpowering Teca. If it wasn't for her flexibility and skills she would've lost quickly. Teca grabbed macel's hair and knees him in the stomach before trying to flip him over but he was able to counter it by head butting her.

Phobio balled his fist at the fight, the sight of Teca getting thrown into a tree made his blood boil.

"Look out!" Ren tackled Teca out of the way. A light beam heading for them both. They both fell, causing siren to look at them when she heard a scream. "Teca."

"My wing." She looked at the wing that was torn. Her side also got cut as well. Before either of them could react macel slammed his staff on the ground causing it break apart making them separate.

Macel watched as Teca landed in front of him, her hand holding her side while her torn wing hung over. "Still so fragile." He growled running at her.

Teca pushed away the pain and dodged an attack. She grabbed his arm  punching him while countering his attacks.

"You fight just like him." Macel smirked pushing Teca into a trap. "You know he fell for this same trick. You're both weak." Macel used his staff banging it on the ground.

A bubble formed around Teca, a bright yellow light shined before she released a gut wrenching scream at the pain.

"Teca!" Phobio jumped down but only froze as he was put in a box similar to the one chase was in. "Let me out! Teca!" He yelled again hearing her screams.

Reiki and the others clenched their fist while still fighting. Rimuru looked at Zyla who's eyes were glued to the bubble no emotions on her face. "You have to help her."

"No."

"She's going to die." Rimuru spoke looking at zyla. "Why aren't they helping?! You're just gonna let her die!"

Zyla's eyes never left The bubble Teca was in. Her screams echoing in her ears. "If she can't survive this she won't be able to survive in this world." She watched as macel removed the bubble, Teca's body fell to the ground.

"This is not how you treat people you care about! She's going to die and it will be your fault. How can you live with that!" Rimuru yelled

Zyla balled her fist. "Stay out of this Rimuru." She ordered before crossing her arms and staring down. "Why are you holding back? Teca."

"Lady zyla." Teca muttered as she tried to stand up only for macel to slap his staff on her back.

"Teca. Don't you remember what he did to Acer? I thought you wanted revenge? All the pain he's caused you, yet. You still pity him but not going full out."

Teca let out a small cry. " I can't..."

"Yes you can." Zyla spoke, her tone was serious enough making everyone get chills. "And you will. I won't allow you to fail. If you fail, you are to never shows your face to pagie again."

Reiki and Vera gasped looking at her. "M'lady but-!"

"Shut it, reiki. You aren't to help neither. None of you are." She demanded floating in the air. "Get up, you aren't weak"

Those words, the idea of being casted away from pagie caused Teca stop crying as she bit her lip. A flower grew from the ground in front macel. "Huh?" He looked at the flower before he was sprayed with pollen.

Teca took this moment to kick him away standing up. Tear streaks on her face, as she looked at the ground. The aura around her dark and full of hatred.

Macel wiped his eyes opening them to see a giant flower growing behind Teca. It's bud opening showing a bright blue light. "I'm not weak." She repeated.

Zyla snapped fingers causing reiki, Vera, Ren and siren to also be enclosed in a box. Teca raised her hand at macel. She pointed her finger as vines wrapped around his body.

"Die." Teca whispered as the black light blasted toward him. At the last minute macel created a force field but it was to no advil as Teca's blast was stronger.

Reiki and Vera smiled cheering as the blast broke his force field hitting him. A loud yell escaped from his lips before his body was no longer visible in the light.

Teca stopped the blast since it destroyed a few trees. She fell forward but was instantly caught. She looked up at the female demon slayer who had a soft smile on her face.

"Teca!" Reiki tan over after the Barrier was gone. Everyone gathered around her.

"I did it M'lady." Teca smiled. "I earned a new unique skill. I'm not weak" She said weakly. "Can I still stay in pagie?"

"Of course you can. You know I would never cast you away." Zyla placed a hand on Teca's wing rewinding time slightly to heal it. "You've been strong from the beginning, Acer would be proud."

Wes landed on the ground behind her, zyla handed Teca to reiki who cradled her. Zyla turned to Wes with a smile. "Do you now see the difference now? As you why you are a weak human."

Wes scowled at the woman. "As long as I still have the sapphire, it won't matter. Your life is in my hands." He reached for the crystal, but his face panicked.

"Looking for something?" Zyla smirked, looking at him. "Could it be this?" she snapped her fingers and the box chase was in disappeared.

Chase walked to zyla and handed her the black sapphire. "Lady zyla." He bowed.

Wes face dropped as he grit his teeth. "Thank you chase. It's good to have you back." She ruffled his hair smiling.

"Good to be back."

Zyla's smile dropped as she looked at wes. "As for you."

"I'll never give up!" He grabbed his magic weapon charging at zyla, causing everyone to get on guard. A strong magical power surged through his body, from the look on his face the power put a strain on his body.

His body started to grow with each step. "despicable" she muttered as she held out her hand a light blasted at Wes drilling a hole through Wes head before a light struck down on him burning him from existence.

"Remind me to never get on her bad side." Vera whispered to reiki who nodded in agreement shivering at how scary she could get.
