"Who are those guys? Do we know them?!" Rita wondered, rushing to my side.
"You don't remember them? They're four powerful Guild Masters. Looks like in the time they've been absent; they have reached Level 200 already." I laughed. "They've gotten pretty strong!"
"Wait, what? You mean those guys are the nerds from the Alliance?!" Rita gasped. "No way! I thought we had finally gotten to their level and they became even stronger!"
"Naturally, they wouldn't be slacking off, they're very well-known Players, among the top fifty Rankers." Said Mark.
"Well, if they're here, we can leave the work on dealing with incoming Nether Portals to them! We should go to the Underworld Gate and clear that boss, or more portals will keep popping up." Lily said.
"Well, yeah, although the rewards for killing the Portal Bosses are really good, I did read that the limit of how many the boss of a Gate could spawn was five." Mark pointed out. "So there's little point in letting him summon more."
"Nice, let's go then!" I nodded. "Acorn, Nieve, Titania, Ent King, Sporegon, I'm leaving you guys to secure this place. We'll go inside the Underworld Gate!" I said.
"Alright!" Acorn nodded. "Leave the rest to us! ORRAH!"
With his huge Divine Beast form, Acorn crushed several Undead at once with an enormous display of mighty physical prowess, his claws devastating them easily.
"Rest assured, milady."
Despite answering my commands, Nieve's concentration never broke, in her special Frost Fairy Queen Transformation, she covered a large chunk of the battlefield on ever-growing frost, her rapier easily shattering the frozen Undead into countless of pieces.
"Go ahead, Queen of the Forest!"
The Ent King roared, swinging his titanic wooden arms as he used the Golden Lion Axe I had gifted to him from a weapon that the Knight Alliance had dropped after being defeated. He dexterously crushed his foes with almighty strength, despite being very old.
"Leave the healing and buffing to me."
Titania smiled at me, as her Aura kept expanding, countless of butterflies flew around the battlefield, exploding into pink-colored explosions, while leaving a trail of pink energy that healed a bit of Health and restored Mana to our allies.
"Don't worry about us, milady! Our mighty army shall suffice against these monstrous beasts!"
Sporegon and the rest of the Mushroom Brigade massacred the Undead in front of them with smart tactics and formations, while allowing all the newbie warriors and magicians they had trained to get a good amount of EXP as well, helping them with their kills.
"Everyone's so reliable! Let's do this then!"
I quickly jumped over Belle's back, as we rushed into the Underworld Gate, I left the rest of my Familiars with the NPC, so their mighty skills and magic could cover their backs much better than staying with us.
Belle roared, her body charging with large quantities of electricity as she flew in midair, carrying all of us inside the Underworld Gates, as we landed right in the middle of a huge ruinous-looking castle.
"So this is the interior of an Underworld's Gate, it did said it was like a dungeon!" Said Mark, quickly leaping off Belle.
"Look!" Rita panicked, pointing at the end of the huge hall we had landed into.
There was a large throne made of blue stone, and sitting above the throne was a giant made of stone and rotten flesh, half of his face was like that of a zombie, while the other devoid of flesh, a clean skeleton.
His empty eyes glowed with bright blue flames, as he stood up, what barely was left of his long, silvery-white hair moved lightly as he glanced at us with wariness.
"So you've arrived, Yggdrasil, the sworn enemy of my Lord!" He roared, raising his only weapon, a huge silver-colored hammer.
He was wearing leather armor, nothing too fancy or heavy either, but his size was ridiculous, the man was almost a hundred meters tall.
"I've used all my power to summon as many Undead as I could, just so we could completely destroy your pitiful Forest." He smiled maliciously. "I might not be a Death General, but I was known as the mighty Uller! One of the strongest Ancient Giants that once led our army against your detestable and corrupted church!"
"I never led a church; you've got the wrong person." I sighed. "But I'll still take responsibility for what you've provoked, and bring your soul to the afterlife, Uller."
"You might have never participated in such wars, nor seen such horrors, but you still accepted and inherited the powers of a corrupted being such as Yggdrasil! As you said, you must also bear her sins as your responsibility!" Roared Uller.
[The {Underworld Gate Boss}: [Ancient Giant Warrior: Uller: Lv 170] has stood up from his throne!]
[His mighty {Giant's Aura} is exuding a powerful force around his body! All of his Physical Strength and Defenses have increased by +200%!]
"Of course, I won't let you fight as you please. This is my domain after all." He spoke, giving us a wicked smile. "And that means that you-"
Before he were to even set whatever rules he wanted, Mark transformed into a giant Phoenix and kicked his face with a tremendous, explosive force.
His head flew off his body, shattering into pieces in that very instant. His body, even without a head, still moved, only hundreds of Spirits to gather around his legs.
"We're not playing by your rules. {Spiritual Explosion}"
Uller's soul spoke in utter disbelief seconds before countless explosions were to blow off his legs into pieces.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"Sorry, but we don't have the mood to prolong an event boss fight, haha."
Lily appeared right above his torso, her huge hammer descending and crushing his ribs into pieces, his arms flew off, trying to escape.
"Yeah, sorry not sorry though, fuck you."
Rita materialized two giant snake-like dragons made of Darkness Spirits, using their sharp jaws to capture Uller's arms and devour them…
"How dare you…! Defile my body !"
Uller's soul emerged like a huge, phantasmal beast, only to be greeted by my two swords as I jumped to fight him.
"Goodbye. {Divine Sword Slash}! {Elemental Spiritual Attack}!"
