Maria springs away from Valerius's questing sword. Desperately she traces her hand through the air in the shape of a triangle, red light rippling behind it as if her palm is being drawn through water.

'I offer up this contract to unleash the wicked spirit beast that envelops the air!' she screams. The triangle flares, gaining form and becoming an alchemical symbol burning on the air. Black light erupts from it, lancing at Azarias.

'Analyze existence, and release. Begone, worm.'

Maria's spell abruptly vanishes, and suddenly Manteau feels his strengthening spell cut off. Valerius can see that a change has come over the first Highlord. Azarias raises his head, and his Stigma burns a fierce red on his eyes.

'Let hellfire and purgatory's flame purge all with a single stroke,' he chants. 'Itto Shura!'

With a step, he disappears and reappears next to Maria, catching her with a kick that sends her crashing to earth next to the Grand Marshal. Her crest flickers and dies, and she slumps over, unconscious.

Azarias, however, does not release his spell. Those around can see dark flickering forms tracing from his back, giving the impression of shadowy wings, no doubt a result of the Angel Hunt casting. His eyes continue to burn a fierce red.

'This... isn't good,' murmurs Azalea.
