"Not everything is a lesson. Sometimes, you just fail."

—Dwight Schrute, [The Office]

"Let me give me your first lesson, Atem. When you deal with dimension lords or... wannabe dimension lords like him, there are three ways to effectively deal with the said lord. First is to lure the dimension owner from his or her own dimension which in this case would be far too time-consuming. The second is to devise a spell or a way to sever the connection between the lord and his dimension which was what I did exactly. But this is only temporary since the dimension lord would inevitably always get his connection back.

And that's where the third option comes in. Normally it's the most difficult one to execute since most dimension lords are extremely powerful with an entire huge dimension powering them up but in the case of this useless twerp, we can easily use that method. And that is to completely destroy the pitiful space that this pathetic demon calls his realm." Morgana said with an evil smile as her voice became more and more sinister at the end of her speech.

The dark sky that had now turned into black water seemed to grow more and more excited as the giant hole in the sky seemed to grow more... silent and calm now for some reason. The entire area had gone silent as everyone including even Ghost Rider and the demons seemed to be waiting for something.

"Break" Morgan finally broke the silence.

As soon as she spoke, white thick pillars of lightning burst out from the giant hole as they traveled along the watery liquid sky creating massive waves. Everywhere the lightning passed, reality itself seemed to bend and lose its form.

Waves began to travel through the entire black dome that had covered the ruined town as web-like cracks appeared on it which even spread through the air and even the ground until the splintered space finally lost its stability and the entire reality seemed to break apart in a blinding flash of light. All the while Blackheart was screaming his throat out in pain as he was still connected to the space and could feel it slowly cracking and crumbling into dust.

"What happened?" Rudeus asked in disbelief at Morgan's insane level of magic spell he looked around and found that they were all back in the destroyed town, only this time it was as normal as ruins could get with no demon minion in sight and a rising red sun visible in the sky.

"Nothing, I just broke his pitiful copy of a dimension domain. *Sigh* I really hope that bald old wrench didn't sense my spell, she always keeps an eye on events like these and only likes to appear at the last possible second to banish idiots who think they have gotten ultimate power and already won." Morgan said with a voice full of annoyance.

"And where are you going? It isn't that easy to run away from a sorceress that even your daddy doesn't like to cross." Morgan teased as she conjured a green glowing chain and tied up the demon prince who was trying to activate some demonic skill or magic to quickly make his escape while nobody was looking.

"Wait, let me go. I'll give you anything you want if you just let me go. Just say what you want and you will have it." Blackheart tried to entice Morgan with greed.

"Do you think we are stupid? You were banished out of hell by your own father who is the lord of hell. You don't have anything to offer us, and neither do you have anything to threaten us with. You my little pitiful demon are hopeless and useless in every sense of the word." Morgan said in a cold voice as her palms and eyes glowed green like she was getting ready to annihilate Blackheart.

"Wait, I want a magic nuke." Rudeus quickly tried to stop her.

At this Morgan, Blackheart, and even the silent Ghost Rider looked at him in confusion.

"I mean, I have an experimental stone I want to test on him." Rudeus corrected himself to sound more genuine as he showed her the new stone Selene gave him.

"Interesting a man-made sealing crystal. Its design is quite good even though it is artificially made. Whoever designed this is quite good. But there are some ways it can be improved. Hmm. Here give it to me, I'll enhance it for you." Morgan took the stone from Rudeus and did some changes to it as she wove some green glowing spell circles on the crystal.

"Here, it should be more stable now and shouldn't explode unless it's overloaded," Morgan said as she handed him back the stone.

"Wait, it's no longer a bomb," Rudeus asked with a tinge of sadness.

"... A sealing crystal powerful like this can be used by sorcerers of the highest caliber to store different types of mystical energy and use it in some extremely big spell or ritual later when they are of urgent need. You can use it to practice a lot of powerful demonic spells and safely perform them." Morgan informed him of the uses of the crystal.

"But, IS IT A BOMB?" Rudeus remained adamant in his demands.

"... If you want to use such a powerful stone uselessly like that, then yes it can be," Morgana answered his stupid question, not understanding his obsession with explosions.

Rudeus after getting confirmation that he would still be able to use the crystal as a magic nuke, activated it. Magic circles began to circle the small rock as a beam of light suddenly emerged from it and struck Blackheart, converting the weakened demon prince into pure black foul-looking energy and then reabsorbing the energy back into itself.

"Huh, didn't look like much. It seems you burned off the extra souls inside him that he got from the San Venganza contract and even damaged a good portion of his concept. Anyways, it will still be enough firepower to blow Camelot to kingdom come." Morgana deduced.

"You, you reek of sins sorceress. You belong in hell." Ghost Rider suddenly spoke up as he looked at Morgan with his hollow burning eyes.

"Oh really? And here I thought that I was just a pure maiden with a heart of gold. Are you sure that you wanna try sending me to hell, Spirit of Vengeance? Many of your past incarnations had tried that but all had failed and quite badly at that too." Morgana gave Ghost Rider a teasing smile.

"Wait, you just saw her helping us and saving both of our lives right? That means she did a good deed which again means she is not pure evil. There's some good in her that you shouldn't burn. And truthfully even if you did try anything, you will not only have to fight her but me, a god as well.

Do you really wanna do that especially when the sun is rising and you don't have that much time left in this form? Or maybe you should just ignore her existence, take Roxanne, change into Blaze, and walk away. I think that would be the best choice for all of us here." Rudeus convinced him.

He was sure that his golden rule didn't work on Ghost Rider, nor did it work on Morgana. They were both too mystically powerful to be affected by his skill so easily. So he was not sure if Ghost Rider would agree with him or not.

But fortunately, it seemed the Spirit of Vengeance did agree after a few moments of deep consideration as the fire all over its body extinguished and it changed back into its human form, Jonny Blaze.
