>>5674205“You need me to put up a Super Barrier?” you <span class="mu-i">think</span> to your son, who replies, slowly raising his arms.
“No need, the blast won't hit here.” he answers. “We'll only get the shock waves.”
And as he says this, the hundreds of crystals all detonate as one. The castle and all the surrounding area are consumed in hundreds of explosions all at once, everyone able to see the massive shock wave his attack generated rapidly rushing towards you all. Your son raises his arms out by his sides as this approaches, then the waves hit you all. The force washes over everyone, you hearing several people shout out as you hear them get knocked from their feet. But your focus is on the source, watching as the smoke cloud quickly blows away. Revealing that the Demon King's castle, and presumably everyone inside it, has been completely erased.
Where once there stood a castle is now a waste pockmarked with craters, no two stones from the castle remain stacked together. You look out over the remains, and for a moment your mind is back to the Siege of New Salda. Watching as an orbital weapon fires down at you, unable to escape. And in that moment, you can empathize with the Demo-or, rather, FORMER Demon King. As you can't sense a SINGLE powerlevel from the area where that castle once stood.
“WOOOOOAAAAAAAAH! That was SOOOO COOOOL!!” your granddaughter shouts, arms waving in excitement. “Do it again, do it again!”
“You want another shot kiddo?” your son asks her, your granddaughter looking at him in wide-eyed excitement as she nods repeatedly. “Well, why not? One more couldn't hurt.”
And he snaps his fingers, instantly firing another barrage of hundreds of massive crystal lances down at the ruins. Much to the gathered crowd's shock.
“What? Again?” one woman shouts out.
“N-Nani?” the skeleton man says, speaking in some foreign tongue you don't understand. Others all shout in surprise as Chilli's new weapon fires down, scattering crystals across the craterous area before they all detonate once more.
“YAAAAAAAY!!” your granddaughter cheers as they all explode, you seeing your son looking down at her smiling face and grinning himself. Reminding you of yourself and Chaya years ago. “KaaaBOOOOOOM!!”
