Athers picked up Kami's body. He takes out the sword of time from Kami's waist and plunges it into the ground.

"Never liked that demon Azazel. I'm not about to let him have his way with the sword of time" Athers mumbles as he steps on the sword until only the hilt is visible.

The first to get up from the battlefield were Pocrea and Lukas who swiftly headed in the same direction as the Catastrophe's did and go to Ntral.

Half an hour later everyone else wakes up.

Tama is groggy and looks around counting heads until she realises that Kami is missing.

"Where is Kami?" she asks

Everyone else starts looking around bewildered. Their enemies were gone and so was Kami. Then it came into their minds.

"You don't think.." Lynx says

"No. Kami? No way, impossible" Liliana responds

"Our opponents have disappeared along with Kami. Isn't him being cap-" Lilith tries

"No. Don't say it" Tama says with a stern look "He is fine. I'm sure of it"

"Yes maybe we should believe in him. He is pretty much underfeatable"

Athers walked into a dimly lit room with Azazel already sitting on a chair with his hands on his face staring at a chair in front of him. Athers dumped Kami's body into the chair and put th fuwa removing cuffs on him. Afterwards he picked up a bucket of water and dashed it at Kami's face.

"YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Kami screamed as he tried to shake in his cuffs from the cold water.

"Yo Kami" Azazel said

"Zael?" Kami responded. He began looking around and saw Athers was in the room along with the calamities excluding James and all the catastrophe's.

"Azazel I'm done. He didn't have your sword, we are done" Athers said as he left the room with everyone.

Azazel kissed his teeth as he watched them walk out and faced Kami again.

"Azazel huh. Not Zael. I see, funny twist on your name demon" Kami sighed as he leaned back in his chair.

"I'm not too sure what to do now I'll be honest" Azazel said whilst happily shaking "I finally got you but maybe I should save you until Asmodeus comes"

Kami's head hit the table as he jumped into Paira.

He stared at the chained higher beings again.

"How do I get out this situation?" Kami asked

"How?" Paimon laughed "When you got my sword before you did that. Yeah I know what you did. But anyway you received my power. Along with my power you have to bear my sin"

"And..." Kami ushered

"He means Azazel can't hurt you. Azazel is the strongest demon who isn't a sin but he still isn't a sin. Every demon can absorb souls from weaker beings than them but you absorbed-"Gora started

"My powers. I'm higher than Azazel so he can't kill take your soul even if you died" Paimon laughed

"Wait. That would make you apart of the seven deadly sins... but there is already 7..." Kami noted

"I'm not one of the sins but I am equivalent. I'm known as the 8th prince of darkness Paimon. The other sins occupy the other spots, I am in no way inferior in fact, last time I was alive they were weaker" Paimon chuckled

Kami stared at Paimon dumbfounded but then remembered that Gora was stronger than him and began looking at both of them repeatedly.

"Wow" was his response

"So sit there looking all pretty Kami. He can't tuch yu betch" Paimon said whils waving his hand around as if mocking Azazel

"Betch" Kami chuckled "Cool. But I still want a get out of here before he attempts to see if killing me will work anyway"

"Good point" Gora noted "If you could free us from these chains that would be one way or breaking free from your side"

"With that Mushoku substance. Hmm omoshiroi" Kami noted "There's also that dagger"

[omoshiroi is interesting non weeblets]

Kami sat down and listened as Azazel started panicking after Kami's head hit the table.

"Explain what Mushoku really is. I'll try that" Kami decided

"All yours" Paimon smiled sinisterly as he waved at Gora.

"Mushoku is the highest form of spiritual power and has no colour when weak and a purple hue when strong. The invisible version is stronger than almost any fuwa. It takes thick fuwa to even damage a user. It is separate from aura and magic. It has to be built from the ground up and you have to seal away both sources of power to do this. It's rare but this means it is possible to develop Mushoku instead of aura or magic which would instantly make you overpowered. Considering me and Paimon are sealed everything is set up. A demon can't use mushoku as it is a divine power with no counterpart unlike aether and nether but when skilled enough fuwa can be added which gives Mushoku its purple hue but it is extremely difficult" Gora explained

"Cool. So how do I develop it?" Kami asked

"The same way you would for your other spiritual power. No matter how hard you try you won't accidentally get more normal power since that has been sealed. Anything you draw out will be Mushoku. You will feel the power" Gora notes

Kami spent 3 real world hours trying to pull it out whilst Azazel kept tapping Kami and fretting. No luck.

"There is another way" Paimon smiled

"No he can't do that.." Gora responded aggravated

"What is it?" Kami asked

"Well.. there are two different cuffs binding down two people. If you was to kill one of us then the other would gain their power. Now they-" Paimon started

"Stop" Gora announced

"Now they're twice a-" Paimon tried again

"STOP!!!!" Gora screamed "We are not doing that"

"Hey it's not down to you. Kami makes the rules here I'm only explaining" Paimon puffed "Anyway when one of us is double the strength we are technically at 200% of our power. This stuff only seals away 100% so I can break free anytime"

Kami stares at Paimon weird when he says 'only 100%' with a face that said 'if it's only 100% then why are you still there?'

"But all your power would turn into nether and you can't use aether again" Paimon adds

"You seem very sure I will pick you" Kami says 

"Of course I am. Gora can't offer you the same protection I can. If you were to choose Gora then Azazel could absorb your soul before you break free. He has probably realised by now and will notice the second he has a chance. He has needlessly good instincts you see" Paimon said

Gora turned away from them both in disgust. This was the only time Gora had ever shown any type of emotion.

"But if I kill you. Technically Gora will get all your power" Kami deduced

"Everything but the sin. Only the supreme God can bestow someone with a sin" Gora noted

"Well killing one of you is highly unfair. What would happen if you both died at the same time" Kami stated staring at Paimon

Paimon looked at Kami as if he was a madman.

"I mean I would get all your powers so I could break free and I could just defeat Azazel" Kami realised

Paimon shelled up.

"Yes... no... power.... sin.... gone" Paimon tried

Gora seemed content. Most likely because he wouldn't have to give his power away to a demon of mass destruction.

"I'll just find a way around that then" Kami deciede

He left Paira and grabbed Asura slightly whilst keeping his head on the table so Azazel wouldn't notice.

"Can I get the powers of Paimon into my body when he dies Asura?"

"That wish can't be granted"

"Really? You say that like you mean ever"

"How about into you. Don't tell me if I can do it or not. Just tell me how many of my wishes it would cost"

Kami had found a way around the limiter that was placed on his wish for unlimited wishes. If he just gave extra wishes to a wish that he couldn't currently obtain then he could get it. If Asura agreed.

"Three days worth of wishes"

"Let's do that then"

"Wish accepted. Wish cooldown time in three days"

Kami returned to Paira and could see Paimon knew what had just happened.

"So you managed to take it anyway huh" Paimon sighed "Then just do it"

Kami walked towards them both feeling the guilt he had since he was about to kill the people who had helped him get this far.

"Don't worry. This is the fastest and most preferred way. You don't need to feel guilt. We are already dead. You doing this will free our souls" Gora started "The only thing is our power will be entering you its only source all at once. You still haven't managed to draw out all of our power in the first place so this may kill you. Do you still wish to do this?"

"It is the only way I can manage" Kami sighed as he placed his hands around their necks

He was expecting them to be slowly strangled but instead they popped as he clenched down on their necks. Paimon turned it a black viscous liquid whilst Gora was the same as the aura pool. Kami watched as they swirled up together in a helix and them forced their way into Kami's body.

As this happened he got down onto one knee from the force of all the power. Then two and finally he was on the floor. His body was undergoing changes. Kami felt intense pain. This pain made when he first absorbed the aura pool look feel like accidentally cutting yourself. Kami screamed in pain as one of the large cuffs holding Paimon and Gora disappeared and the other clamped down on Kami.

He watched as his whole body began to disintegrate and Paira followed suit. Kami felt fear as he stared death in the face. His body couldn't take all the power. The only thing he could do was believe in himself and not die just like how he did in the aura pool incident but this was different.

The nether crawled up Kami's left hand and replaced anything that disintegrated whilst the aether did the same on the other side. They met in the middle and gave Kami a horn made of nether on his left side and half a halo on his right made of aether. He grew wings that were separated in the same way.

By the end of Kami's screaming Paira was gone and half of Kami's body was nether whilst the other was aether. He had a wing on his left and a horn made of nether and a half halo along with another wing made of aether.

His body was perfectly split in two from the power.

Azazel noticed something was happening and attempted to take Kami's soul but he was touching Asura. This wouldn't work. He watched as a hue of fuwa separating itself appeared over Kami with the aether going to one side and the nether to the other. No this could no longer be called fuwa. This was the embodiment of Gora and Paimon. Kami lifted his head and popped off the cuffs holding him down and withstraining his powers.

"What how?" Azazel said as he stared at the new form Kami now had "What kind of fuwa is that"

Azazel stood up and backed away as well.

"This isn't fuwa. In memory of the ones who gifted me this power, this is Paira" Kami said triumphantly

Kami originally gave the place Paimon and Gora the name Paira with the Pai from Paimon's name and the ra from Gora's. But now this would be the name of the power only he had which rivalled Mushoku itself.
