The sky was silent for a moment, then it cracked.
Naamo began to gather a storm of energy, swirling around him in massive waves of brown and white light. His eyes turned pure white, his hair transformed into a fierce blend of chestnut and silver, and his body lifted into the air, trembling with force. Then he screamed.
The sound echoed with such ferocity that what was left of the destroyed kingdom completely disintegrated. Walls collapsed, pillars exploded into dust, and the land became barren earth. Only one thing remained untouched, the black and pink energy barrier Kuina had summoned earlier. It still covered the battlefield like a divine shell.
The harem stood in frozen shock.
Clara gasped in horror. "I have lived for two hundred years, and I have never seen anything like this. His power is pure destruction."
Lika trembled, tears forming. "Kuina, please hold on."
Kylie could not even speak. Neither could Piper or Mortis. Molly, injured and clutching her leg, muttered, "What the fuck?"
Naamo, now fully transformed, floated in a godlike pose, radiating light and fury. He stared down at Kuina who still stood like a statue, unmoving, her face locked in anger. Her black and pink aura collided visually with his white and brown one like clashing gods. Kuina's eyes drifted briefly to the lifeless body of Mira, still laying to the side. Her breath caught. The rage swelled even more. She reached her hand toward her sword, and as it flew into her grip, it shattered completely, breaking into hundreds of pieces.
The system said nothing.
Kuina suddenly teleported, aiming a kick straight at Naamo's chest. But when her leg connected, she realized too late she had hit only an illusion. From behind, Naamo's elbow crashed into her spine with brutal force. She cried out and flew backward, rolling across the ground. Her voice cracked, "What the hell is going on?!"
Naamo's tone was mocking and furious. "This is my full power, redhead. No more teasing, no more feminine charm. Enough!"
He raised his voice even louder as the light surged around him. "You! All of you! You ruined everything for my men. You killed so many. For years I've fought to protect us, to rebel against women like you who flaunt their sexuality like escorts in a marketplace. No more! Kuina!"
In a flash, he teleported. Kuina thought she had caught it. A smirk formed on her lips, but Naamo appeared behind her instead and slammed a punch into her back.
Outside the barrier, Kylie screamed, "Kuina!! Fuck this, I'm breaking through!"
Molly reached out. "Wait! I felt the energy. If you touch it, you'll start burning alive!"
Kylie smirked. "You still don't get it? I'm a Witch, Barbie girl."
With a snap of her fingers, her clothes shifted completely to glowing gold. Her lipstick turned golden, her hair shimmered like sunlight, and her eyes radiated. She was now fully golden. Clara whispered, "That color is stunning. You're so beautiful like this."
Lika blinked. "But... but... you only changed color, didn't you?"
Molly rolled her eyes. Piper stayed quiet. Mortis was speechless.
Kylie blew them a kiss. "Mwah, thanks for the compliments. But this, girls, is what we call Golden Kylie. The full name? The Golden Bitch. I didn't want to use this power. It's complicated and messy."
She stretched her arms out, then formed a glowing heart between her hands. "Here it comes, girls. The Golden Seductive Kiss. Mwah!" She blew the kiss toward the barrier, and a golden pulse of loving energy shot forward, colliding with the wall. The barrier trembled slightly.
Meanwhile, Naamo continued pummeling Kuina inside. "Wow. Even with all that rage, I'm still stronger than you. You're pathetic."
He lifted a glowing brown and white orb in his hand. "Disappear from this world, slut!" He hurled it at her. The blast hit Kuina full force. Outside the wall, Piper shouted, "Kylie! Hurry up! That thing just hit her!"
Kylie kept blowing golden energy forward, her arms trembling. "I... I can't hold this much longer..."
Piper yelled, "AQUA GIGANTO BAZOOKA!" From her palms, a colossal wave of water energy slammed into the wall, adding pressure. Piper turned to Lika. "Do something useful, you little bitch!"
Lika nodded and unleashed glowing hypnotic orbs. Mortis fired his own concentrated laser. Molly joined in, sending her own energy beam from the side. The barrier trembled, glowing with cracks.
Clara flew up beside Kylie, who looked exhausted.
"You're incredible, Kylie," Clara said softly. "Let me help make your power grow."
Clara kissed her full on the lips. Kylie's eyes widened but then relaxed into it. Energy surged between them, pure and electric. Clara pulled back and gave Kylie a slow lick on the cheek. "Mmm, your lips are sweet. Now come on, baby, give that wall the biggest kiss yet."
Kylie winked. "Mwah!"
A massive explosion of golden energy burst from her lips, the entire battlefield shook. The others watched in shock. Then, suddenly, Kuina appeared behind them. Her voice was calm and low.
"Stop."
Naamo laughed from the inside, unaware. "That slut isn't even alive!"
The girls froze. Kuina stood behind them, eyes blank, her power still radiating. Kylie zipped to her side. "Kuina, what happened? You look so angry... is it all because of Mira? But you forgot you can bring her back, right?"
Kuina looked calm but unstable. "I want you all to stop. I don't want you to see what's about to happen. Go to the safe house or anywhere far. But if you stay, you'll see a version of me you won't like. Much worse than now."
Kylie gently touched Kuina's cheek. "It burns me, but I don't care. I told you, I'm with you till the end."
Piper added, "I promised I'd kiss you every day until I die, and I won't break that."
Kuina shouted, "Enough!!"
Naamo turned. "Bitch, she's alive?!"
He punched the barrier with fury. Kuina shouted quickly, "There's no time! Go now! Take Mira's body. I'll take care of her later."
Clara stepped forward. "I'll take her, baby. Don't worry."
Kuina's voice cracked. "Listen to me! I don't need help right now. Please understand. If you stay, you'll get hurt, just like Mira. Leave now!!"
Naamo shattered the barrier with a roar and, in a blur, launched himself forward. The girls were caught mid-shock. Naamo screamed, "Die!!"
He aimed for Kuina but hit Lika instead. His fist smashed into her face with brutal force. She flew back, unconscious.
Kuina screamed, "LIKA!!!"
Piper grabbed Mortis. "Come on! Let's get her out of here!" Mortis obeyed. Piper took off. Clara flew with Mira's body, whispering, "You'll get queen-level treatment soon, sweetie."
Piper glanced back. "Lika, don't worry, you're fine. Thank god!" Mortis asked, "Is the marshmallow girl alive?" Piper grinned, "Yeah dumbass, she's alive."
Naamo hovered above, charging more power. He fired at Kuina again. The blast hit her lightly.
Kylie cried, "KUINA!"
Molly said nothing. She launched at Naamo, trying to punch him with lightning speed. But Naamo dodged easily and countered with a gut punch that sent her crashing.
Kuina grit her teeth, blood dripping from her lips. "Okay, Molly, Kylie. You want to see how psychotic I really am? Fine. Time to show you."
