Rita wasn't just talking trash for the fun of it. What she was really doing was making use of a skill she'd learned while studying gacha-machine crafting with Drummer—[Hit the Beat] (SSS).
[Hit the Beat] (SSS): The words you speak will inflict an overwhelming mental stimulus on your target, amplifying all of their emotions. Costs 1000 mana per minute while active.
An SSS-ranked skill, just for talking. Maybe it was because the things she had said at the time had left such a deep scar on her divine instructor that the system itself had recognized it as worthy.
If it could rattle a god, then naturally it worked on Bone Shade too.
But no amount of verbal provocation could change the reality that she was standing alone against two leaders—Bone Shade the Undead Lord and Flowering Edge the Moon Emperor.
[No Sleep Tonight]!
She burned away 10% of her mana to link her damage to Flowering Edge, forcing the fox emperor to shoulder part of the incoming punishment from Bone Shade.
