Despite the distance scattering the light enough for the damages to not be noticeable to enigmium, due to its rather excellent heat-absorption properties, the cyan ship still unleshes its shot upon the ship far, far away.
Why is that? It is simply out of spite, a pity shot for the defeated enemy that backed off. If cameras get caught, or people look at the shot, they'd obviously go blind from it due to the ammount of luminoscity, and the damages to the ships are very minimal, just some heating, maybe scorching of the hulls. However, this seemed to be a warning, that next time they fight, Devas' terror may not see a next time again.
The fleet organizes itself back onto the formation that they once had, and started again the orbital bombardment of Damadafu. They didn't cover the stretches of land that had already been impact, as they worked on the other side of the planet, eventually covering almost all of the surface in nuclear detonations, destroying all surface infrastructure.
Then, they dropped biological weapons to grow, feed off the remains of the land and the radiation, and grow. Biological weapons specially geared to affect humans and Musavians, but mostly Musavians.

He grabbed a small piece of some kind of metallic cloth from his pocket, with two wires coming out of it. He then connected both of the wires at a small display on the table, akin to a clock.
"No need to keep this a secret. It's very well-known within the Musavian society and the military, but we thought we'd show it to you. Now, observe that, as I make this mesh undergo strain, it will produce energy, measured on the clock there."
He tugs on the mesh with quite some strength, as it deforms slightly and the clock starts going up, counting the ammount of current and energy being deposited within and passing through the system. The Musavian then stops tugging on it, and the value of the current reduces.
"We will not tell you about how this material works, however, we did find a good use for it. Please pay attention to the holographic display."
The holographic display then started playing a small recording, of a railgun round from one of the MISE's ships being fired at quite a large slab of metal, and as the tip of the railgun round started to pennetrate the slab, the railgun projectile was seemingly pushed outwards with immense strenght, its nose flattened to a shape akin to a disk.
"As you can see, that is highly experimental, with only about three ships of our fleet using that system as of now. On the older systems, the metal on the outside was expelled as well. Let me explain. As the kinetic projectile pennetrates the first layer of armor, it encounters a stretched out and very dense layer of this mesh. What happens is that, the projectile strains the mesh, that produces energy that powers a series of reactive magnets on the outside, pushing the projectile away with extreme magnetism. On past generations, this also strained the layer of metal above and fried the magnets underneath, however, we are working to minimize this effect, and the newer generation allows for two uses per armor module of roughly one meter squared. What do you gentleman think of this material? If this isn't the application that fancies you, I can give other examples, but combat is, sadly, unavoidable these days, even more with the threats that roam around in the galactic scene."
