Infinity. Endless. Boundless.

Aucuses floated in the vast expanse of the space, with light streaks extending around him in the very fabric of space. For a brief moment, he felt space expand to become truly boundless; even the mother goddess of depravity appeared to be affected by the boundless space and vanished into the horizon. 

As, he couldn't hear her distorted angry roars any longer, which was a comfort to his ears. As the roars of the mother goddess of depravity were nothing short of a conglomeration of all blasphemous sounds in the cosmos, they could literally drive anyone who heard them to commit suicide in order to get reprieve from the sound at least in death.

'It really worked...' Aucuses thought as he tightened his grip on his white spear, his gaze roving over the infinite space surrounding him. 'It has a much larger impact than I anticipated...'

He created that technique not long ago, but he never had the chance to test it before applying it directly here. He wasn't sure he'd succeed, so he was always planning another attack just in case.

'Mother Goddess of Depravity....' Aucuses considered 'Her' with a headache, as the situation was deteriorating into a battle of attrition. But he knew they'd lose if this went on, because they'd be no match for her in that scenario.

'This reality.....' Aucuses took a look at this recently formed reality. 'I need to completely destroy this reality...'

He couldn't think of any other solution because this was the only way to solve everything. Rather than fighting a battle to see who manages to survive the longest.

But saying something is one thing; actually doing it is quite another. The appearance of the mother goddess of depravity reinforced the "reality" here. 

He felt before, the reality expanding at an incredible rate, massive enough to fit even different planetary systems, at that precise moment before she arrived ahead of them.

He didn't know if this was 'Her' work or the power of sefirot, but it didn't matter anymore.

'Lilith..' Aucuces thoughts turned as he remembered Lilith's authority over "life", which can create and take life, as well as the "Desolate" which can wither the very reality.

Lilith and Artisan are in different space, with artisan completing the historical scroll and Lilith protecting Artisan. They would not enter the battlefield until Artisan finished it completely. All the while, he is fighting mother goddess of depravity, to prevent her from reaching Lilith.

'What if we combined our authorities...' Aucuses was devising various strategies to win the battle, also never letting his guard down and constantly scrutinising his surroundings, for even his godly perception couldn't actually detect 'Her'. 

Even though his thoughts were numerous, so much so, it may appear that a long time had passed, but it had only been a few seconds.

Boom!

The lines of light in the space around him dimmed and faded, taking with them the authority of "order" that was acting on the space, which was also erased by another vast force that appeared.

Aucuses tightened his grip on his spear as he realized this, and pure white light began to gather in the tip of the spear.

Then, it appeared.....

'Holy crap!' He was completely taken aback by the structure that was appearing in front of him. 'Is there is no limit to 'Her'?'

He saw something tearing the very fabric of reality and destroying the infinite space so easily before him.

A swirling mass of darkness tore out of the space, extending out and occupying everything in this space within next moment. The darkness swirled as countless wails or screams of pain and terror echoed from within it. 

This structure had many layers, each of which housed abominations and souls of multiple races who were either tortured or wandered aimlessly.

Various alien faces that looked nothing like human morphed on the edge of the swirling mass of darkness, but they all had one thing in common: they were screaming in pure terror and fear.

Above all of this manifestation was 'Her,' with countless eyes filled with nothing but rage, as 'She' stared at him, as if 'She' couldn't wait to tear him apart.

Aucuses stood in front of this structure, his figure dwarfed by its enormous size, which occupied almost the entire reality in his perception. 

A thought came to him out of nowhere as he gazed at it.

He felt this was nothing but a manifestation of all that is ugly, chaotic, and, most importantly, evil in the infinite cosmos. 

'Why does it resemble the infinite abyss?' Aucuses noticed the resemblance, he wasn't talking about the abyss on Earth, but about another abyss in one of the famous games from his previous life. 'Is this 'Her' manifestation of authority of "evil"?'   

The thoughts flashed in his mind, before he completely focused on 'Her'.

Now even though, Aucuses was facing something like this, he was just solemn and didn't show any panic in least. 

The pure light gathered on the tip became blazingly bright, literally holding the power to purify anything evil,  gave him confidence.

To be honest, his "light" authority is nemesis to 'Her' now.

Roar!

As the abyss moved, 'her' furious roar resounded.

The abyss then literally fell towards him, carrying the power to destroy and corrupt all in existence.

Boom! Boom!

As it descended towards him, space and reality tore in its path.

"Light."

Aucuses pointed his spear at the falling abyss and declared.

A beam of pure light erupted from its spear tip, growing in size as it approached the descending abyss.

Boom!

The pure light beam collided with swirling filth darkness, shattering reality. The pure light evaporated some of the filthy darkness in the abyss while the filthy darkness started corrupting the pure light and trying to turn it darkness.

But soon, there was balance between both sides, as their authorities just kept colliding, with no side having an advantage over the other.

It had become a classic situation, or more of a cliché, because it was now good vs evil and light vs darkness.    

Mother goddess of depravity was enraged when she saw 'Her' authority being challenged by a mere god of earth; even though 'Her' current power is far from her true might, it still enraged her, as it was the first time she had faced a situation like this since the fall of the other two pillars.

As he observed the stalemate, Aucuses wanted to use some of his other authorities to break the deadlock.

But just then a flash of green light appeared behind him, and a deep voice echoed through the space.

"Death."

Immediately, a portion of the abyss trembled and became illusory before fading out of the very existence, giving the light beam an advantage as the entire abyss began to evaporate under the pure light. 

Aucuses felt relieved when he noticed Lilith appearing near him. For this entire battle had been far from easy, and it was truly tremendous to face a pillar alone, even if 'She' was weakened. He desperately needed assistance in this situation.

Lilith appeared from the green light, and before, she used her authority of "Life" to deprive the very life from the abyss.

Because the Abyss was a manifestation of mother goddess of depravity's authority, it contained 'Her' will, so it can also be considered as a life, so her authority was effective, not only affecting the abyss, but also injuring her.

Mother goddess of depravity's rage faded as 'She' saw Lilith and 'She' no longer cared about other things. Immediately, 'She' used 'Her' authority to corrupt Lilith.

Lilith was nervous and anxious at the moment, unsure whether Aucuses' plan would succeed.

She didn't dare to come to the battlefield before because mother goddess of depravity could easily corrupt her at that time, as her pathway originated from her. Even Aucuces couldn't prevent this from happening.

Just as Lilith began to feel a connection with 'Her', an illusory light shot out of the void, revealing picture-like projections around Lilith and Aucuces.

Some of them recorded humans' helplessness and misery when confronted by supernatural beings. Some of them used an epic-like brush to re-enact scenes of humans fusing with Beyonder ingredients to gain strength and save the race. Some described the distinct cultures and traditions brought about by a Black Emperor, while others carried various points of view, books, and inventions... 

It didn't stop there, as a massive image appeared in the projection, dwarfing everything else. It depicted the ruins of a long-forgotten civilization and the miracles that they achieved without the use of any extraordinary means. 

The contents made the seemingly thin scroll exude a heaviness and majestic aura that quickly enveloped the entire reality. It made anyone who looked at it feel the grandeur of this civilization, which even managed to pass on the fire and flourish again.

 

The history left behind by hundreds of millions of humans before and after the apocalypse was vast and magnificent. 

The might of the entire Human Civilization shielded Lilith and thwarting the attempts of the Mother Goddess of Depravity, Pillar of Cosmos!
