Its never stated that their fight was a physical one, it could have a peaceful fight, each of them begging their argument to the king, and the king deeming Raime's words enough to cast him out.

Alternatively, it could be that Raime became much more powerful when he chose to live alongside the bride of ash, and Vestadt has become weaker from ages defending his king (he may even but somewhat corrupted by darkness).
