"Light of Destruction!" The Goddess of Light Luminaria shouted as all ten magic circles activated at the same time.
The other gods immediately knew that the needed to defend as ten legendary tier spells in unison casted by the same being would spell disaster even for them. This is even truer if the one that casted it was a goddess or a god. Gods and goddesses have an exponential increase when they stack spells of the same category.
Adrian tried to contain the light magic that suddenly exploded by using the mirrors that he did not utilize yet. About eight hundred or so mirror materialized to form a dome around the Goddess of Light Luminaria. Adrian wanted to believe that this would be enough to contain the light explosion but that was not the case.
All of his mirrors disintegrated as the spell that the Goddess of Light Luminaria used erases all presence of mana except for the light element. Adrian was able to decrease the impact of the skill, but he was not able to contain it in the end. The powerful light explosion spread with the Goddess of Light Luminaria in the center which prompted Adrian to rescue everyone that will be affected.
Without even waiting for permission, Adrian shifted all of the people that were about to get disintegrated into ashes. The Light of Destruction spell is powerful enough to turn a demigod into ash when cast by an angel. If it was cast by the Goddess of Light Luminaria, then even lesser gods might get their formed body destroyed.

About six meters of ground vanished in the blink of an eye while Adrian had to chug another mana potion. Adrian was able to rescue everyone, but a splitting headache also came with it. He had to split all of his attention in a large area which would make a normal person faint from the brain power needed to do it.
"Yes! That is what should be." The Goddess of Light Luminaria stated as she saw how fearful the mortals have become of her.
The gods managed to protect themselves and their followers behind them, but they did not come out unscathed. Burns could be seen on the bodies of the gods while parts of their holy relics were damaged. The gods knew that their time was severely depleted once more but the Goddess of Light Luminaria was getting stronger despite losing more health.
"Why was I hesitating this whole time? I have always squashed the bugs beneath me. I shall do the same for all of you that dare to stand against me." The Goddess of Light Luminaria stated but she did notice that she was not this careful after she became a goddess.
The Goddess of Light Luminaria thought that her link with the Chosen Nephilim made her human emotions shine but forgot that idea immediately. She knew that a mere mortal should not be able to influence her as she was a High Goddess. She was the most powerful of all the gods of light and she has already cast aside her humanity when she became a goddess.
"I was just being extra cautious because I did not have all of my power that is all. Now that I have seen what I can do with my current full power, there is nothing to fear as even these greater gods will not be able to touch me." The Goddess of Light Luminaria thought to herself as she activated a more powerful version of the previous spell.
"Light of Annihilation!" The Goddess of Light Luminaria shouted as all her ten golden rings summoned magic circles once again.
This time, the gods that just defended themselves and their followers knew that normal defensive spells will no longer work. Even the Goddess of Magic Hecate knew they were now at a crossroads and gave all her allied gods her verdict. One of the gods or two would need to use all of their divine energy to stop the Goddess of Light Luminaria or else she will annihilate all of the beings here including them.
"The two of us shall do it." The God Shamash and the God Pabilsag answered as both of them knew that they are the ones that have lower combat power.
"Defense of the Just!" The God Shamash and the God Pabilsag stated as they suddenly appeared a few meters away from the Goddess of Light Luminaria.
"You cannot defend against this attack foolish greater gods!" The Goddess of Light Luminaria shouted as a more terrifying light explosion came from her.

[All defenses will increase by 1000% for the duration of one minute. This effect has stacked due to the two gods casting it simultaneously.]
The God Shamash and the God Pabilsag were the first ones to get disintegrated by the light as their summoned bodies perished from taking the brunt of the spell. Even the holy relics that they were summoned from became ash as well from the power of the explosion. The members of the Church of Justice fainted as they were somewhat connected to the holy relics, but they were protected.
The two gods sacrificed themselves to make sure that the other gods and even the mortals will be able to weather out this powerful spell. They believed that this would be enough, but the laugh of the Goddess of Light Luminaria could be heard. She was clutching one of the goddess fragments and used its stored power.
[The Goddess of Light Luminaria has used the power of a goddess fragment.]
[Her current spell will have 50% defense piercing.]
A look of horror flashed before the eyes of the gods as they immediately used protection spells to defend the mortals. A certain demon from above was smiling though as he could see a skill that was not accessible before.
