“Garrr!” The Tassie Devilnoid roared out, Vnaa was unconscious, Serena was losing a lot of blood but still stayed conscious, Miko and Umi were side by side with me staring down Neptune and the Black Paladin, Umi had generated her sea horse scales around her broken leg, it didn’t stop the bleeding or pain though.
“Is this it Sir Udon” Umi mumbled to me, she looked around and I could see the hopelessness and fear in her face
“I-I think so, I’m sorry that you girls got caught up in my mess” I grumbled gritting my teeth
“I must say I am rather impressed you made it this far, but it all ends here, you will ….”
*Clang
“What! What are you doing!” Neptune was in the middle of his ‘I’m going to kill you speech’ again when The Black Paladin jumped down from the stand and slashed at him with his double scimitar
“On Mercury’s orders, you need to be executed, you have caused too much trouble and brought shame to the Adventurers Guild name” The Black Paladin slashed left and right, up and down, all in a blink of an eye.
“Arrr! Know your place human scum!” Neptune tried to block all his strikes, but I could see the cuts appearing on him
“Master Udon, that weapon that man is welding, it’s the Double Scimitar Hero Weapon” Miko told me
“It has the power to drain a foes life energy, it’s rumoured that The Black Paladin has mastered the cursed form, but can’t switch to anything else” Umi added on, that would explain the blood soaked, black creepy design.
“Hmm, keep your guards up, we still need to face the Floor Boss, and that man might come after us next” I told the girls turning to the exhausted Tassie Devilnoid
“Garrr!” It started charging towards us, Umi and Miko split to the sides of me while I held my ground
“Barrrr”
“What the hell!” I jumped to the side and just managed to avoid the foul green gas come from it’s mouth, that must be it’s odour breath, damn it.
“Haaaa!” Umi lunged at the monster managing to slash its legs, however the slash didn’t cut very deep and the monster just shook it off
“Rival Miko! Your turn!”
“On it!” Miko jumped over Umi and slashed her dagger down on the monsters head
“GARRRRR!” The Tassie Devilnoid managed to move back and dodge majority of Miko’s attack, but the tip of the dagger made contact with it’s left eye
“Nice Miko, that should slow it down a little” I charged forward with my sword and made a clean cut across its right wrist
“GARRR!” It let out another painful shriek looking down at his right arm and seeing his hand cleanly cut off
“Master Udon watch out!” The Tassie Devilnoid made a clear run at me, it was faster than me and even if I dodged it would most likely still get me
“I’ve got an idea, help cover me!” I shouted out to the girls. I started running towards Neptune and The Black Paladin, Neptune was beating down the lone player with his Golden Trident, but every swing was either blocked or parried.
“You are nothing but a mere player! You cannot stand up against a God!” Neptune spat down at the Black Paladin and tried to impale his Golden Trident into the neck of him
*Clang
The Black Paladin looked over to me and saw the Tassie Devilnoid right behind, he parried Neptune’s strike and used the opening to roll underneath his legs and get some distance
“Coward!…Wha” Neptune shouted out. He turned to see me duck under his arm and slash his leg, he than saw the Tassie Devilnoid
“GARRR!”
“Arrr!” The Tassie Devilnoid used it’s shadow claws and sent Neptune flying over the stand and into the stone seats causing the seat to crack and break
“Now girls!” The Tassie Devilnoid turned to me and started charging once again, just how big of a stamina stat does this monster have!
“On it!”
“Haaa!” The girls came running up behind it and managed to stab its side causing it to stop in its tracks
“GARRR!” Another painful shriek was let out, but that didn’t stop it. It waved its arms around and pushed Miko and Umi back, Miko managed to pull her dagger out, however Umi’s Sea Trident was plunged deep into its ribs.
“Arrr, my weapon” Umi called out watching the Tassie Devilnoid pull it out of him and throw it high into the stand
“Umi, Miko and I will cover you…Miko!” I turned and ran to Miko, she had fallen to her knees, she had lost a lot of blood, that gash on her head had not stopped bleeding
“I-I’m fine” Miko whispered to me
“Watch out you two!” Umi shouted out, I turned up to see the Tassie Devilnoid swipe up with his shadow claws, damn it!
“HARRRR!”
“Huh?” I opened my eyes to see a girls body fly through the air above me, I could see the massive gash on her stomach due to the monsters claws, they looked pretty deep

“SERENA!” I shouted out. She had managed to jump in front of us two just in time, but got the full force of the attack head on
*Bang
“Rival Serena!” Umi shouted out, damn it! Serena landed hard against the arenas wall and smacked her head, she was unconscious and possibly dead
“Umi! Keep your guard up!” I had to keep composed, this is turning out really bad
“But Rival Serena!” Umi shouted back at me
“I know! But we can’t let anyone else get hurt” If we lose another person, we would easily die here, Umi still had a broken leg, and Vnaa was out cold.
“I’ll kill you!” Umi lost all train of thought and went charging in at the Tassie Devilnoid
“Don’t Umi!” I shouted out, it was hopeless though.
“Barrrr” The Tassie Devilnoid let out its odour breath and Umi ran straight into it, I saw her fall to her knees and cover her mouth
“Damn it Umi!” I started running towards her, I need to get her out of there
“Garrrr!” The Tassie Devilnoid planted a hard kick into Umi’s side, she fell immediately to the ground, it looked like that kick made her black out
“UMI!” The Tassie Devilnoid, than stomped down her Umi’s legs breaking her other one, the monster than picked her up with its teeth by her legs and crunched down hard, I’m surprised that bite didn’t tear her legs in two
“Umi!” Miko came up running beside me, she looked as white as a ghost though. The Tassie Devilnoid rag dolled Umi around for a little, than threw her into the arena’s wall
“Miko, we need to try and kill this thing quickly, once we do that, grab Vnaa and head straight to the twelfth floor, I’ll grab Umi and Serena, we don’t have any time messing around with those two” I looked over at Neptune and The Black Paladin, they were exchanging blows, it seemed even to me, Neptune would dodge one and than get hit while The Black Paladin will parry the tip of the Golden Trident but get smacked by the hilt.
“Understood” Miko nodded to me and we charged back into the sight of the Tassie Devilnoid.
“Get it to try and use it’s odour breath, I have an idea” I told Miko as we flanked the monster
“Garrrr!” The monster aimed at me and swiped across with its shadow claw
“Arrr” I managed to jump backwards in time and avoided the tips of the claws by a bee’s hair
“Over here you mutant bastard!” Miko lunged at the monster and stabbed it numerous times in the back of its thigh
“GARR!” The monster let out a roar of pain and turned to face Miko
“Barrrr” Miko got some distance from the monster and caused it to use it’s odour breath
“Now!” I ran around and threw three grenade seeds into its mouth
*BANG BANG BANG
The grenade seeds exploded as they made contact with the foul gas, I don’t know if any actually made it into it’s mouth though
“Miko, down” I jumped at Miko and pushed her to the ground, I rolled over to see the Tassie Devilnoid pushed all the way back across the arena, I looked behind me to see Neptune back on top of the Black Paladin
“You scum! This world is divided by Gods and peasants! You best remember that!” Neptune raised his Golden Trident high into the air
“Hear the words of a God dungeon, I ask to be surrounded, filled and illuminated with the dungeons heavenly flowing energy, obey my plea ‘The Power of the Gods Light’ Bolt Typhoon!”
*Sizzle Thud Bang Boom Fizzle
A massive Typhoon of water and electricity surround Neptune’s Golden Trident, this one seemed more controlled than the one he used on me. I could see the grin of satisfaction spread across Neptune’s face, he thrusted his Golden Trident towards The Black Paladin
“Hear my words cursed dungeon, I The Hero Weapon of the fortieth floor ask to be surrounded, filled and illuminated with the dungeons Double Scimitar flowing cursed energy, hear my plea ‘The Cursed Power of the Dark’ Punishment!”
A black smog covered both Neptune and The Black Paladin, Neptune’s Bolt Typhoon made contact sending water and electricity to spread across the entire arena, I covered my eyes with my arms and when I looked back up I saw the black smog fly high into the air and fly straight into Neptune
“WHAT IS THIS!!!” Neptune was sent flying across the arena and landed on the opposite side into the stone steps, I could see the blood pouring out of him as he flew through the air, I turned back to see The Black Paladin on one knee, his nose looked broken and he had blood running down his left eye. He turned to me and gave me a grin, it sent chills all over my body.
“Master Udon, look” Miko tugged on my shoulder and pointed to the Tassie Devilnoid
“Huh” It was disorientated and grasping at its head, did that electricity do something to it?
“Nows my chance!” I stood up and grabbed my sword, I charged towards the Tassie Devilnoid, sword pointed towards it throat, one deep stab should end this
“GARRR!”
“Damn it!” The monster regained it’s composure and saw me charging for it, I had to change my attack
“HARRRR” I slide under its swinging arm and sliced its other hand clean off, it fell down to the ground looking at it’s newly cut off hand on the ground in shock
*Short Bronze Sword Mastery-10/10
*Imbue Short Bronze Sword Mastery Power into sword>
“Huh? What does that mean?” I looked down at my sword confused
“Master Udon!” Miko shouted out, I looked up to see the Tassie Devilnoid stand up and turn to me in rage, it’s eyes looked like they were on fire, it had saliva running down it’s mouth and steam coming out of its nose, it was furious.
“Do it, upgrade sword!” I shouted out
*Short Bronze Sword successfully upgraded into Short Blood Sword
*Short Blood Sword Mastery-0/10
“What the” I looked at the Short Blood Sword, the bronze colouring changed into a dark bronze red colouring, even the hilt of the sword changed from a leather brown to a leather black with a red small gemstone in the centre. The attack stat had doubled to +70 and two Enchantments were added on as well, Blood Boost which increases the sharpness of the blade when covered in blood and Blood Gem which increases the attack stat of the weapon, but it requires me to give a lot of my blood to the gem and only lasts a max of thirty seconds
“Garrr!” The Tassie Devilnoid was running towards me, its foul, acid like blood dripping down from its cut arms
“Take this!” I ran towards the monster and sliced its leg, the cut was deep enough to hurt it, but not deep enough to stop it. I ran across the arena and dragged my sword in the pools of green blood, my sword felt a little lighter and swang more smoother when I sliced through the air.
“Bring it on” The Tassie Devilnoid went charging back at me, I ran towards it and jumped into the air and plunged my sword deep into its shoulders
“GARRR!” The monster let out the most painful shriek I’ve heard it do so far, it waved its arms around trying to claw at me and grab me with its stumps, I couldn’t hold on any longer and ripped my sword out of it’s shoulder and kicked off it landing back next to Miko
“That was so cool Master Udon” Miko looked at me, her eyes weren’t centred and were looking all over the place, I need to end this quick. I looked back towards the monster, it was just standing there, not moving, just breathing heavily
“No! Don’t! I’ll give you what ever you want! Don’t kill m…” I turned to see The Black Paladin standing over Neptune then the next second he sliced Neptunes head clean off. The head of Neptune rolled across the arena and landed at the feet of the Tassie Devilnoid who just looked down at it and picked it up, it opened it’s jaw and ate the head, blood and other body parts splattered out from its mouth, I saw one of Neptune’s eyes fly high into the air, it was a gruesome sight to say the least.
“Garrr!” The Tassie Devilnoid let out another roar, but this time I swear I saw it smile. It looked down at its cut off hands and than to me
“What!” It’s hand regrew, some of it’s cuts were even healed
“Neptune’s head must have given it some bullshit power, damn it!” I gritted my teeth and gripped my sword even tighter
“Master U-Udon” I turned to Miko who coughed up a little blood as she pointed towards The Black Paladin, I looked up to see he was pointing his Double Scimitar at me.
