Ice Queen in Another World V1 [Completed]

[53] Death of a Sin - Loss of a Demon Lord

The two faced each other. Albert held a smirk upon his lips as his wings flapped above the crimson well of mana and Claire's expression was frozen. Realizing he did not plan to willingly pull Alice back to her, she spoke to her companions.

"Could you guys try to get Alice out? I'll take care of him."

The demon tilted its head.

"Who says I'll let you?"

Its wings flapped and, in the next moment, he was before Claire, a fist glowing red as he punched.

An explosion ripped apart a wall of ice and revealed a chunk in the girl's place.

Claire slashed down from atop.

Her blade met the scrapping of claws as a spark spasmed into the air. Still, it found its way into a hand and lounged itself there. Frost momentarily chilled across red skin but, then, a blaze of flames rose upon his body, burning her ice away.

Albert grinned, "Girl, you're not the only one who is overpowered."

It spun and kicked.

Flames spewed alongside an explosion that rocked Claire's world and sent her flying. She crashed against a tree, the air falling out of her lungs, as ice fell beside her.

She had offset the attack with a shield of ice but, still, blinking, she realized the demon was headed for her.

"Damn. . ." Via muttered as the two began their battle. "So. . .does anyone know how to get her out?"

The ground exploded and Claire rolled from it.

As she ran, ice spears wallowed around her and shot between trees, trailing a demon and drilling for him.

"Do you think this is enough to destroy a sin of pride?" Two fists clashed together, creating a blazing roar that ripped apart her creation.

Appearing within the mass of shattered spears, Claire pierced her weapon forward.

"I don't care."

A gigantic, rotating, spear of ice met a fist and an explosion occurred, sending flames and chunks flying. The giant trees of the forest of illusion crashed down wherever they passed. A slew of fire and ice intertwining.

"Fool, as long as the sun shines, I'll never run out of mana to fuel my flames! Mine is a forever burning pride!"

Claire decided she ought to finish this fight while he still gloated. A platform of ice appeared below her, stopping her fall, and she placed a hand upon his figure as her Mana enveloped him.

In the next instant, both stood within a world of endless snow.

He looked around, slack-jawed.

"Where is this. . ?" He asked.

"My world," She replied.

Surprisingly, flames still existed upon his person. After she checked his status and saw the skill <Sun Blazer>, she realized he had been literal with his boasting.

Yet, she didn't care. In her world, her stats raised by one, all S rank, save for her strength, as she, momentarily, stepped into a higher rank. And, here, she wielded her powers with no cost to her mana.

"Really? Your world? It matters not," He chuckled as his body lit aflame and his fists glowed red. "I've seen how you fight, Claire, you can't win against me. You may be strong but the Sin of Pride is overpowered as long as the sun shines."

The sky was dyed the red of flames with his punch.

A swirl of flakes spun around the Ice Queen, ice below her feet, she faced his coming fist.
