The Land of Spade has now been turned into an Elemental Hazard Zone, with Malacar causing complete catastrophe. Zack, wielding his dual blades with precision, navigates the chaotic battlefield and strikes Malacar with "Orbital Devastation Swing." This formidable swing resonates with the energy of celestial orbits, amplifying Zack's strength to deliver a blow with the force of a planetary collision, devastating the landscape and severely injuring Malacar.97Please respect copyright.PENANA2PNIJmSaKL
Before Malacar can react, Malumnox is already behind him, invoking "Reality's End." This powerful ability allows Malumnox to not just alter but completely redefine reality, erasing the laws of physics, magic, and existence, asserting his uncontested dominion over the immediate environment.97Please respect copyright.PENANAO2lTLoeBJg
The narrator hints that the duo of Zack and Malumnox might equal or even surpass the combined strength of Levi and Lyn or Joker and Astralith. Despite his injuries and the overwhelming power against him, Malacar refuses to yield. He attempts to activate his Jewel powers, but Malumnox's control over reality stifles any effort Malacar makes to fight back.97Please respect copyright.PENANAhCGlwXoK27
Just as victory seems certain for Zack and Malumnox, Astralith arrives from her battle elsewhere. Malacar is surprised, having thought she was still engaged alongside Joker. Astralith explains she felt Malacar's energy waning and intervened. She uses "Reversal" to undo all damage in the area, and "Restore" to rejuvenate Malacar, replenishing his energy levels to their peak.97Please respect copyright.PENANAxFKTLeJppi
Then, Astralith employs "Replicate" to grant Malacar his own Essence Manifest, instructing him to use it should he face defeat again. Embarrassed and infuriated by the implication that he was defeated, Malacar bristles at her words. Astralith finalizes her intervention by using "Amplify" to significantly enhance Malacar's abilities. She sternly tells him not to lose again, as she will not return to save him, and then heads back to rejoin Joker in the ongoing fight against Lyn and Levi.
The chapter concludes with the battlefield tensed for renewed conflict, Malacar reinvigorated and determined not to falter again under the watchful eyes of his formidable foes.97Please respect copyright.PENANA0gokUjSOQ5
