We'll take care of the injured. You just focus on him."Thomas nodded. "Thank you. All of you."Ace smirked. "What are comrades for? And Edwin I still need that rematch."Edwin lowered his head. "I'm sorry, Ace… for everything."Ace waved it off. "Ay, no need to get mad about spilled milk. You can make things even if you take down that so‑called king of demons."Edwin smiled warm for the first time in a long time."Deal. And Blaze… I need to apologize to him too."Ace clapped his shoulder. "No need. He knows you're sorry. Now focus you guys have a destiny to fulfill."Edwin nodded, feeling the warmth of his brothers again.Thomas said, "Let's do it."Light smirked. "Ain't it ironic? The story started with us… and now we get to end it."Thomas nodded. "Feels right."Edwin agreed.Lucifer stood on his throne, impatient."Are you lovebirds done catching up? I'm falling asleep over here."Light stepped forward."How about we show my father what humanity failed to show him… right?"All three flared up.Thomas a pure platinum aura.Light a black inferno aura.Edwin a purple‑platinum aura.Their auras rose into the sky merging into one colossal storm of color.Lucifer grinned."Yes… that's what I call power. Now show me the strength of humanity!"The divine broadcaster spoke:"Great power from the human side! I wonder how our supreme Lucifer holds up to these heavyweights.

Lucifer dodged, back‑stepping with perfect timing.Edwin joined kicks and punches forming fatal combos. Lucifer blocked and dodged both brothers at once.Light tackled Lucifer but Lucifer's wings moved independently, slicing Light's face. One wing formed an obsidian blade and stabbed Light in the back.Thomas grabbed the wing and ripped it off Light.Edwin landed a brutal kick to Lucifer's face stomping him into the dirt.Lucifer caught Edwin's leg and threw him Edwin flipped mid‑air and landed perfectly.Lucifer rose one arm transforming into an obsidian blade. He swung violently at Edwin slashing him multiple times.Edwin ducked and Thomas appeared behind him, delivering a mighty punch to Lucifer's jaw, sending him flying.Light was already there giving Lucifer no time to recover.Light attempted a double hammer punch Lucifer rolled away, wings lifting him into the air. Both arms turned into obsidian blades as he launched himself downward.Edwin flipped away Thomas was a second too late and took a slash across his torso. The cut wasn't deep.Thomas ignored the pain.Lucifer turned in the air diving again.Edwin shouted, "On my cue!"Thomas nodded.Lucifer approached Edwin screamed:"NOW!"Edwin dodged and grabbed one wing.Thomas grabbed the other.They yanked Lucifer backward slamming him onto his spine.Edwin tried to land a finishing kick Lucifer dodged at the last second. Edwin hit the ground hard, leaving a crater.Thomas rushed Lucifer punch, kick, spin‑kick, punch a deadly combo. Lucifer ducked and weaved.Edwin joined the brothers unleashed a fury of blows. Their combined aura turned into fire, gold, platinum, and electricity.Together, they landed a punch to Lucifer's chest sending him sliding across the dirt.The world watched in awe.Even demons far away began rooting for the heroes.Across the world, humans and demons watched side‑by‑side on screens witnessing the battle for humanity.Sophie teared up."Get him, Thomas… Edwin… do it."The brothers continued in perfect sync as Lucifer's anger grew. His aura flared dark red and black.The cheers grew louder the world wanted the heroes to win.Divine creatures murmured:"How can mortals possess this type of power…?"Asad smiled.Thomas… you truly are the hero we've been waiting for.Lucifer blocked Edwin's kick but Thomas came from below with an uppercut.CRACK!It sounded like steel bending.Lucifer staggered.Light appeared with a spear tackling Lucifer to the ground.Lucifer roared:"I WON'T DIE HERE!"His tongue extended a snake shot out and bit Light's neck.Light stumbled back.
