The alley darkened. That darkness did not come from the shadows, nor from the illumination of Derry's flames. No, it came from Erebos himself. As he unlocked the fullness of his power, it caused shadow essence to seep from his being. This raw, unfiltered darkness was much harder to extinguish, and much more malleable for an expert like Erebos.
"I'm going to take this seriously now. Is that okay?"
His Kili exploded out of him, skyrocketing his power to its true level. Surely it'd be sufficient to deal with a brute like Derrick. The Demon chuckled, and tilted his head. Seemingly being commanded by the action, Derry's shadow moved into action. It let out one last 'Myeah', before tossing that fireball it'd been copying. Potent and powerful, the ball soared through the air, its blackness acting as a counter to the luminous nature of Derry's flames.
Next, the shade of Erebos moved in, its sword raised high. It moved unnaturally, like it was preserving as much of its self as it could for the singular act of slicing through Derry. It reached him quickly, and brought its blade down for an overhead slash, before dissipating into the ground.
All that shadow that his magic had tossed around into the air, both from Derry's shadow vanishing and Erebos' returning to him, gave the Demon plenty of ammo. He sucked in harsh breaths, shuddering as mounds of shadow poured into his body. He himself became a pure and pitch black, while the surroundings almost seemed bright as a dreary afternoon rather than the dead of night they were in.
"Here. For you."
Erebos stretched his hand out, and a torrent of sludge-like blackness poured from his palm. It poured and poured and poured, moving ever-onward to slam into Derry and snuff out his light for as long as it could.
He struggled to keep the beam steady. Such an unprecedented amount of coordination of his magic, combined with the burning sensation in his chest, was enough to push him to his utmost limit. It'd be considered by most to be overkill, but it was certainly good to push his upper limits as often as possible. Who knows? Maybe one day this much exertion would be his normal output.
Once the attack finished, Erebos took a knee, panting heavily. He clutched his chest, patting at the flames in vain. Talk about weird.
