As casually as Sylas waved his hand, defeating Meikai hadn't been easy. In fact, without Reaper Sealwright, he wouldn't have succeeded.
Luckily, he was able to use a combination of Vipermancy and Reaper Sealwright to target specific nodes in Meikai's body that built the Demon World Chains several times more potent in their efficacy.
Unfortunately for Meikai, her act of bucking up against the chains and reducing their power had given Sylas the focused lens he needed. If not for that, it would have taken him probably days of battle before he could finally manage it.
It had to be remembered that whether it was Vipermancy or Reaper Sealwright, both were still at the E-Grade, while Meikai was in the D-Grade.
Thanks to Runeweaver being in the D-Grade, there were many things that Sylas could see that he normally wouldn't be able to at his level—especially now that he could wield D-Grade Will as well.
However, untangling the surface-level D-Grade capabilities of Meikai's body to make it deeper into what F- and E- Grade layers he could manipulate was extremely difficult.
Every time one elevated to a new tier, everything that formed them was bundled up into a tight mesh and squeezed into one's Foundation. Sylas himself had only just experienced that.
This meant that when you faced an enemy of a certain tier, the easiest parts of them to manipulate were what was on the surface. The rest was nigh unreachable.
Finding a crevice to take advantage of had been extremely difficult.
Luckily for Sylas, like he said, Meikai had had a method of directly resisting the chains. From what Sylas could tell, Meikai's solar-flare-like Aether had birthed a Comprehension of its own, one that essentially made her the center of her own galaxy.
Using a similar concept to how stars acted at the center of star systems and were the reason worlds could exist, she heavily leaned on that to partially fool the Demon World into thinking she wasn't actually in its world at all, but instead in her own.
This was a very raw and simple explanation for something that was incredibly complex, and Sylas couldn't make out all of the details because all the intricacies that went into it would have probably required him learning the Comprehension himself.
But all he had needed to know was that this was the root of how Meikai was resisting the chains and even growing stronger as the battle went on. So if he could follow that thread and find a weak enough point of the Comprehension, then he could use Life Seal on it and suppress it.
Once that Comprehension was suppressed, Meikai became a lot more like her companions, held down and restrained by the Demon World Chains.
The more she sought to fight against it, the more her Will was drained, and the more vulnerable she became to Sylas' methods of attack until she had nothing left to give.
That ended up in this result, but Sylas did have quite some respect for the Azurex heiress.
Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to have thought of sparing her until Gogo decided to step into the picture and ruin things.
The world pulsed and the rotation of the portal reversed.
Meikai was dragged away slowly at first, and then she accelerated backward along with all her other companions.
"KILL ME!" she roared. "KILL ME NOW, YOU COWARD! OR I SWEAR I'LL KILL YOU! DON'T LET ME GET MY TAIL ON YOU!"
With a zipping sound, she vanished as her voice echoed.
"Are you sure about this one?" Sylas asked Gogo.
Gogo looked at him as though to say a million words without saying anything. His mouth parted and then closed before he gave Sylas another "really" look.
