Arc 10 Witchworld

 The battle rages, and many on both sides are incapacitated or injured. Weary and reeling they are caught off guard by the appearance of Demirire, one of Hirmou's former lieutenants, who defeats them with ease, and then transports them using magic to a place unknown to them all. Her power has been increased exponentially since any of them had last encountered her, and this is due to Demirie being an expert at manipulating opportunity in her favor. During the Battle at the End Demirire had been playing for time while slowly siphoning off some of Hiromu's power into four magic rings. This in some small part led to Hiromu's eventual defeat at the hand's of Roger Crycheck, and her escaping to add her stolen power to her own. The deity like power combined with her magic gives her reality warping powers, which she uses to force several worlds to mold together to become a land she rules at will.   She then set out to trap the two groups in her world to both contain those she sees as potential threats, and also as a sort of form of entertainment, as she sets the inhabitants of the Witchworld against them and is confident in her ability to prevent them from ever gainign an upper hand.

This forces the two teams to work together to escape from the initial trap, but then find themselves separated into groups of two (with a member of their former enemy team) facing off against a hand picked enemy in a particular part of the Witchworld.
