Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army II - The Fallen King


Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army II - The Fallen King, also known as "Konjiki no Gash!!: Mamono no Kakumei-gun II ~Taoreta Ō~ (金色のガッシュ! !：魔物の革命軍II 〜倒れた王〜)" and "Zatch Bell!: Mamodo Revolution Army II - The Fallen King," is a sub-sequel/extension to my Zatch Bell! / Konjiki no Gash (Bell)!! fan fiction, Golden Gash!!: Demon Revolution Army (specifically my remade version), which is a fan sequel to the Zatch Bell!/Konjiki no Gash!! manga series by Makoto Raiku. This new story arc takes place directly after Chapter 16 of my remade storyline in the other timeline, thus branching off from Chapter 17 and onward, which means that this sub-sequel can be read after Chapter 16 (remake) or after the final chapter (Remake: Chapter 22). However, it is recommended to read this story arc after reading the Revolution from the Dead (RftD) story (Remake: Chapters 17–22) due to potential spoilers and that The Fallen King (TFK) arc is labeled after the last RftD chapter.

With the defeat of the Laughing Deathstock Gang by the Acolytes of the Nether, the Demon Resistance Army has continued to fight for Former King Gash Bell's rights to the throne. The current King of Demon World in the past timeline is Lord Gul'ren, Necrolyte Dark Lord of the Nether, and he plans on recreating Demon World from the ideals of his deceased brother Zal'gor, who was King of Demon World 10,000 years ago, in his own dark way. A month later, the former young King and his queen-to-be returned from the Human World to Demon World to D.D. Sanctuary, a refuge from a different dimension created by the Royal Knight Lieutenant General D.D. Veni. The war has gone too long and the Resistance Army launches one final battle to determine whether or not Demon World [Planet Terra] is recoverable or the former young King will have to rule on a whole new planet without being connected to Planet Earth of the mortal universe anymore. Will Demon World be restored or will Lord Gul'ren forever rule the planet in his own peace?

Trivia: Franchises that inspired me to make this new story arc are Warcraft, StarCraft, Harry Potter, and Star Wars.

Chapter 33 (The Fallen King Chapter 11): Return from the Nether


NOTE: This chapter was divided into two parts on DeviantART due to the chapter exceeding over the 64.7 kilobyte limit on DeviantART.

Recap


[Insert random recap music]
The final battle between the Demon Resistance Army and Acolytes of the Nether begsn. The Resistance plan to attack the Dark Fortress from all sides. However, it seems that the Demon Revolution Army is already too late as Operation 666 became a success. The Acolytes of the Nether unleashed a powerful, deceased archdevil known as Behemoth from the Netherworld into Demon World. They plan on killing every last demon with this giant, godlike undead-unholy beast.

Scene: Dark Fortress of the Dark King in the Capital of Demon World


[Choose random battle music: #1, #2a, #2b, #3]
Behemoth, the former Great Demon Lord of Envy and Wrath, emerges from the giant dark portal. All of the acolytes ran far away from the portal. "At long last, the Great Behemoth. The end is here," said Lord Gul'ren. The undead Behemoth looked up in the sky and made a loud roar, which created black thunderclouds and caused a thunderstorm all over Demon World. Seeing so many flesh torn away from Behemoth's tough body with lots of bones, blood, and organs shown (with some missing organs), Warchief Dan'ro Deathscream said with some enthusiasm, "Darn, that is one ugly beast. This unholy deity better be on our side. Spirit World deities can resist demon magic after all, which can be advantageous or disadvantageous on how well we can tame this creature." Lord Gul'ren holds the Dimensional Right Eye of the Dreadlord Malfournis in his right hand. Lord Gul'ren said, "Yes, one slip up and this mighty undead beast will go berserk, killing us all. Fortunately, I have the powers of the Lich King—the King of the Undead. Let's put that to the test." Lord Gul'ren aims his dark scepter with green orb at the undead Behemoth. Dark spiritual lightning discharged around the green orb and Lord Gul'ren is trying to get control of Behemoth's mind.

Scene: All around the Capital of Demon World (noon)


While the soldiers of Demon Resistance Army were battling against the undead and the other three necrolytes, their eyes were distracted by the new monster summoned in Demon World. A soldier among General Whir's company in the north said, "Hey, what is that thing back there?" Marshal General Zeon Bell wondered, "Oh great, is that the creature Golbar told about?" General Whir said in disgust, "We wasted too much valuable time on these undead maggots. Destroy that behemoth-of-a-creature at all costs; do not let it intimidate you."

Among General Karoa's group with General Moko's soldiers among them to a the east of the fortress in a ruined urban area, General Karoa looked surprised (even with her knight visor equipped), "Are we too late?" "Keh... keh... keh..." Zon'mortuis gave a slow, deep laugh somewhere in the area while he's invisible. General Karoa accidentally had her guard down and part of her soul was being pulled out by Zon'mortuis, "Ahh!" until she acted by stabbing Zon'mortuis's invisible head with her head with her water trident and attempted to freeze him. Zon'mortuis chokes himself really hard with his right hand until he decapitated himself. Despite being headless, Zon'mortuis body can still act on its own for a while without a brain but he is slowly generating a new zombie head and brain. He truly does go by his title as the "Immortal Assassin" and it was proven when Spider Empress Araneae Zer'ghul pierced his brain with a poisonous arrow a month ago and that was before Demon World's land was plagued with the undead (but Stalghor was more vulnerable back then until the world turned to death). Zon'mortuis turns back invisible with Gu Riaruku while his head regenerates. "Almost had him," General Karoa said as she breathed heavily. A Colonel-ranked aquatic soldier of her army asked after slaying a few regenerating zombies, "General, are you okay?" General Karoa said, "Don't make the same mistake as me, Colonel." The Colonel of her army said, "But your soul?" General Karoa said, "Keep your eyes out. We'll take on that beast once we're through here." The Colonel of General Moko's group that is leading the Land Paladin's squad said, "Our General will handle the new guy. Don't get distracted General Karoa." Karoa responded, "Right," and kept her focus on Zon'mortuis, making sure he doesn't escape the battlefield in town.

Among Major General Rosella's military squad with Major General Barburos's squad, Corporal Gale Starlily felt frightened not only by the forest but what is out there at the fortress in the east, "What? What is that thing?" After Sergeant Zack Snapdragon slashed an animated tree with his leaf daggers, he noticed Behemoth in the distance at the fortress, "Whoa! Where'd that thing came from? It's huger than and more ugly than Stalghor's behemoth transformation." Even Major General Rosella was surprised but speechless. Among the haunted forest from the west of the Dark Fortress, Araesa Blackforest, who was hiding among the dead forest, smirked, "Fufufufu! It's the end for you, my dear friend. The Great Behemoth will be your d-o-o-m unless if you join the winning side. Last chance." Major General Rosella yelled harshly, "Forget it! This Great Behemoth, what is this monster?" Araesa chuckled but couldn't really explain to non-necromancers, "Fufufu! Even if I was allowed to tell you, which I'm not allowed to—as a necromancer—it wouldn't matter. But let's just say, this unholy god-of-a-beast from another world will be Demon World's downfall, especially if we lose control over it. Kill us... seal us... and that thing will go berserk in this entire world." Rosella became frustrated on what she should do and Araesa asked, "Now, Rose Witch, what will you do?"

Scene: Judgment Hall of Spirit World Kingdom in Spirit World


Even though Spirit World Kingdom and Paradise of Spirit World's communication with the living Demon World are cut off by the Eye of the Dreadlord's anti-dimensional properties, hiding demon necromancers from the God of Death—Supreme God King Yama the Enma—Araesa doesn't want to take her chances. King Yama, who's in the Judgment Hall of Spirit World Kingdom filing lots of papers, is already aware of the distortion and noticed a disturbance but he wonders what's going on in Demon World, yet his Dimensional Æther spells aren't working properly, "What's going on in the living world? Blasted! What is this dimensional distortion?" The giant red-skinned, black-bearded angel-demon deity is having a tantrum as he smacked on his large desk. A nephalem [angel-demon hybrid] in rune armor with black and white angel wings approached the archnephalem and shouted, "Your Divine Majesty, the Netherworld... The Netherworld is gone!" King Yama couldn't believe it, "What?!" The nephalem soldier stuttered, "Enma-sama, the Gate—the Gate of the Netherworld opened up to a pitch-black void. It's—it's just gone." King Yama the Enma yelled in frustration as he smacked his desk, "Impossible! Find out what's causing that dimensional distortion." The nephalem soldier stuttered and was confused but proceeded anyway, "Ah? Yes, sir!" This proves that the anti-dimensional properties of the Eye of the Dreadlord are working even among the æther of Spirit World. Each of the three major realms of Spirit World is their own dimension; similar to pocket dimensions. The powers of the Dreadlord Malfournis are amazing, even after his death over nine-thousand years ago. No wonder why that particular gargoyle demon was called a "Dreadlord." King Yama wondered, "First that brief feeling in the Netherworld, now this? I wonder if he'sinvolved." Who could King Yama be referring to? Yama appears to be sweating...

Scene: Paradise King's Palace in Paradise of Spirit World


Even the archangels of Paradise seem to have noticed a disturbance, especially the Great Angelic Saint of Humility, Saturn the God of Time. The ancient, former King of Paradise was meditating in the Paradise Palace, "Hmm..." The current King of Paradise, Jupiter the God of Thunder, asked, "Something seems wrong, doesn't it, father?" Saturn responded, "It seems it has. No doubt about it. Not only my Dimensional Æther is being affected by this dimensional distortion but strangely, my Time Æther and are affected in some way too but my Time Blessings seem normal." It's strange that the "dimensional" eye is also preventing time magic, specifically time warping and time traveling. Perhaps there was more to this eye than it was originally stated. Perhaps this "dimensional" eye affects spacetime all together and not just space. Was the Dreadlord aware of this power of his? Saturn has the ability to revert time with Time Æther: Revert, which is just like T.F. Golbar's Time Revert spell except it has less limits than Golbar's Time Magic. It's strange that Saturn's Time Æther don't work but his Time Blessings can. Time Æther is universal while Time Blessing benefits the user or target such as de-aging them to their strongest age with Time Blessing: Youth. He continued, "Something has happened in the Netherworld and to a further extent—Demon World—in other words, Planet Terra. I fear the worst for what's going on in Terra." King Jupiter said, "There's nothing we can do and we can't get involved with the living, no matter how much trouble a planet is in." Saturn asked his kingly son, "Unless if an archdevil is involved. Think about it. Why else would we be blocked from the Netherworld's communication? Whatever is happening in Planet Terra of this universe affects us as well. It's our problem as much as their's." King Jupiter thought about it, "Hmm... Very well."

Scene: Ruined urban areas south of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon, several seconds before Behemoth appeared)


Meanwhile in the ruined city in the south of the Dark Fortress, Lieutenant General D.D. Veni's and Lieutenant General C.S. Galactica's divisions were having trouble against Stalghor's dragon transformation and his army of skeletal beasts. Stalghor breathed chaotic green flames from his bony dragon mouth and incinerated a bunch of soldiers at once as they screamed in pain. He then roared in the sky. Sergeant Major Ashuron of D.D. Veni's army was heavily injured, "Gyeh, heh, heh. His power is insane and limitless. Just, what is he?" C.S. Galactica was still in a meditational pose and her consciousness is still out of her body. She was searching for a weapon in space like a giant meteor or an asteroid to attack Stalghor from above to give D.D. Veni enough time to throw all of Stalghor's bones into another dimension. D.D. Veni thought to himself, I wish it was easy for me to banish all of his bones at once but we can't let any escape or he'll keep coming back and who knows how many he backed up before this fight. What's taking her so long? D.D. Veni was growing impatient with C.S. Galactica. He could banish Stalghor even in his strongest transformation, the dragon form, but as long as one of his bones exist in Demon World, Stalghor will rebuild himself from that bone in this dimension and D.D. Veni is trying to sense out all of Stalghor's bones hiding around but barely could find any. He didn't even sense the ones that were smuggled into the sanctuary. How will D.D. Veni and C.S. Galactica defeat a nearly immortal undead beast?

As Behemoth was appearing through the dark portal, D.D. Veni noticed the giant as he turned his head around, "It... It's can't be...?!" This... this creature...? Are we too late? D.D. Veni definitely recognizes it from T.F. Golbar's future memories before he died and he seems to have an idea on what Behemoth may be. All of the soldiers were surprised too but had to focus on their current fight. C.S. Galactica is still out of commission and may or may not be aware of the current situation.

Scene: Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


Meanwhile at the Dark Fortress, after Behemoth was summoned, Hyenus Maximus and Thodrum Thunderbeard were shocked at what they brought into Demon World with Hyenus Maximus shouting, "Holy crud, what is that thing? It's huge! Way huge, man!" and Thunderbeard shouting, "Criminey-Jiminy, whit did we juist summoned? Tis gargantuan. Oof, mah back aye aches." ⟨"Criminey-Jiminy, what did we just summoned? It's gargantuan. Oof, my back still aches."⟩ Thunderbeard rubs his back with his right hand as his back was still in pain for all of the worshippings. Under the Dark King's control, Lord Gul'ren ordered Behemoth, "It's time. Behemoth, kill all Resistance soldiers on Demon World and kill all survivors in their headquarters, immediately." The undead Behemoth roared in the air and casted Dark Fire Curse: Hellhounds of Fury, summoning thousands of dark infernal flaming beasts of the Netherworld into Demon World that dashed throughout the capital in all directions. Figuring out where the dimensional warp points to D.D. Sanctuary are located from Stalghor's memories, Lord Gul'ren used the Dimensional Right Eye of the Dreadlord to create dimensional distortions in random areas, warping some of those dark, blazing hellhounds into D.D. Sanctuary. The sanctuary is in deep danger...

Scene: D.D. Sanctuary (noon)


While Major General-ranked soldiers of non-Royal Knight status were stationed in each of the four command centers of D.D. Sanctuary and the four residential wings with some extra lower ranked soldiers guarding the sanctuary, a Major General-ranked Dragoon in the main southern headquarters complained, "I can't believe we're stuck in the sanctuary with no action. Lieutenant General, what is the status of the war?" This Major General-ranked Dragoon wears armor made of obsidian and he wears a dragon-shaped helmet and wields a dragon lance. D.D. Veni's dimensional clone replied, "It's... it's terrible." He then felt a disturbance, "Hmm!" Suddenly, D.D. Sanctuary began distorting. Spatial dimensions in the halls are expanding and retracting uncontrollable and even D.D. Veni's clone was being distorted, "M-My dimension? Herr!" The Dragoon was worried and wondered what's going on, "D.D.?!"

Hellhounds of Fury warped inside the sanctuary, running around, attacking high-ranked soldiers as they defended themselves. Some civilians that were being escorted by guards to facilities like restrooms were being attacked as well. Lieutenant General D.D. Veni's clone said, "How'd they get into the sanctuary. Everyone, defend the sanctuary at all cost." The Dragoon asked, 'But what about you?" D.D. Veni's clone said, "I'll be fine, I hope. Ha!" Veni's clone shot bolts of psionic energy at some hellhounds and try to banish them to another dimension but realized, "My Dimensional Magic isn't working. I lost contact with my original self." As the Major General-ranked dragoon destroyed some hellhounds with his dragon lance, "Ha! Hoo-ah!" he said, "There's too many of them. Are you sure you cannot bring the survivors' rooms to the new planet?" D.D. Veni's clone said, "Too dangerous. Until I find out what's causing this distortion—Ahh!—I cannot risk warping everyone." The dimensional clone's body was being warped from the Eye of the Dreadlord. Suddenly, some hellhounds disappeared in the residential halls and command centers. The Dragoon wondered, "What's going on?" These disappearing hellhounds randomly warped their ways into residential rooms and started attacking and devouring innocent civilians in their rooms.

Using the Eye of the Dreadlord, Dark Lord Gul'ren in Demon World pulled the freed souls of D.D. Sanctuary into Demon World and placed them into his scepter. No one is safe, even in D.D.'s world as long as the Dark King wields the Right Eye of Dimensional Distortion in his hand. The reason for the dimension distortion everywhere in D.D. Veni's pocket dimension is because most areas' spatial dimensions were altered by his Dimensional Magic and are shifting all over the place. The young former Kingand his queen-to-be are in grave danger if the hellhounds suddenly find their way into the King's room.

D.D. Veni's tries to communicate everyone in his dimensional but is having trouble connecting to everyone telepathically, every... This is D.D... ... the sanct... under attacked. For some reas... cannot transport... to the... ...anet. With those particular words caught in the King's Bedroom as the King's room was also being distorted, Gash and Patie were scared and Patie panicked, "What's going on? Ahh—" A hellhound found its way into the King's room and was about to attack the defenseless young King and future queen-to-be until D.D. Veni's dimensional clone managed to warp into the King's room to destroy the Hellhound. Gash was scared and speechless as he and Patie held each other in fear and Patie asked, "W-what's going on? What's happening to you and this world?" D.D. Veni's dimensional clone was having trouble moving said, "Ahh! I'm glad I found your room in time. Something is interfering my dimensional powers. I may be a dimensional clone but I'll be fine but I lost contact with my original. I just need to get you all to the new planet if I can." Gash asked, "But what about Demon—Planet Terra?" D.D. Veni's clone said, "We're still fighting to bring you back. We're just trying to keep you safe until Terra's recovered. It appears my sanctuary is no longer safe, especially since Lieutenant General T.F. Golbar was assassinated. I'm not sure if the assassin is involved in this but I will bring you all to the new planet once it's safe for me to warp everyone there. Listen, Your Majesty, if we don't recover our planet within the next four hours, you'll have to rebuild Demon World on the new planet and rule over it." Gash said, "And that means, we can no longer see Kiyomaro and the others." D.D. Veni's clone said, "You're gonna have to live with that if we fail but know that you will have true peace either way."

Scene: Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


As the Dimensional Right Eye of the Dreadlord was still glowing in King Gul'ren's right hand, Warchief Dan'ro Deathscream wondered, "Those souls?" Lord Gul'ren said, "I managed to get some Resistance soldiers and survivors' souls from that dimensional world with the Eye of the Dreadlord. Surprisingly a low number of survivors obtained, though. But we have more than enough for me to rebuild my world." Warchief Dan'ro is still opposed to his Dark Lord's plan with a betrayal stare but said, "The Resistance will be here any moment. I'll assemble the acolytes and my Death Knights and bring them to their—Mmm?!"

A dark fog appeared before them and was forming into a known Demon Resistance soldier but made of black nether energy. Warchief Dan'ro was preparing to attack this familiar person that's shaded, "Resistance?! You dare approach the Dark King and Warchief of—" Despite appearing as one of the high-ranked soldiers wielding a staff-like weapon, the entity spoke in a deep, spooky-and-mysterious voice, "You know why I'm here, my Acolyte of the Nether. My master has sent me to retrieve the Eye for what you call 'Operation Null' and I require Behemoth's power to achieve this plan. Not to worry, your primary wishes will still be granted by my Master upon his freedom." This is definitely the same entity that has assassinated T.F. Golbar in D.D. Sanctuary. Lord Gul'ren said, "Already? I wanted Behemoth to eliminate everyone but if it's his wish now, very well," and gave the Eye of the Dreadlord to the entity resembling a particular Resistance soldier before it disappeared with the Eye but it continued using the Eye's power to prevent Spirit World from interfering but D.D. Sanctuary is released from its power. Who is this entity and who was this entity shapeshifting as?

Scene: D.D. Sanctuary (noon)


D.D. Veni's dimensional clone noticed that his dimension is back to normal and so is his body and wondered, "We're free? Come now, before anything else terrible happens, I'll transport everyone to the new planet. If we can recover our planet, we'll bring you back there." Gash responded, "Unu." D.D. Veni's dimensional told everyone in his sanctuary telepathically, attention all survivors. The dimension distortions appeared to have stopped. However, there are still intruders attacking the sanctuary so I'll bring you all to the new planet right away. If we don't recover our Demon World within the next four hours of Demon World's time, please recreate Demon World on this new world with His Majesty as the Planetary King of that new world. Please treat him with respect and help His Majesty build the new world the way he wants it if we can't recover our old world. Transporting you all now.

The dimensional rooms traveled through space until they reached a new planet. D.D. Sanctuary is linked with both Planet Terra and the new planet ever since D.D. Veni got coordinations from C.S. Galactica's mind.

Scene: Planet Zenma (noon in Demon World)


D.D. Veni transported all of the locked residential areas to a new empty-but-habitable planet of the magical universe. The residential rooms resemble trailers on the outside with one door and no windows. They landed on an empty plain of grass and dirt with some strange trees in the distance. Even though there is plant life, there doesn't seem to be any native animal [demon] life around so this could be perfect for Gash to recreate Demon World on this new planet. D.D. Veni's dimensional clone was still in his pocket dimension since the dimensional clone and his real self cannot be in the same dimensional world even though they would be on different planets. D.D. Veni's dimensional clone could still communicate them telepathically and as he was communicating to them, the residents slowly and cautiously exited their rooms to see the new planet, attention all residents. Because D.D. Sanctuary was invaded during that distortion, we transported you all to the new habitable planet Lieutenant C.S. Galactica found called Planet Zenma. This planet doesn't seem to have any sign of animal life but it does have an atmosphere similar to ours so it seems to be perfect enough to recreate Demon World on this planet if our planet is unrecoverable from the damage the Acolytes caused. You may explore the area but stay cautious and stay near the camp. There is no telling was hazard there may be in this new environment and we don't know what's edible to consume on this planet yet. And as a dimensional clone, I cannot leave my pocket dimension into the same dimension my other self is in so I'm stuck here until myself in Demon World has time to come here. If I don't come for you all within the next four hours, you may help Gash Bell-dono, His Majesty, rebuild Demon World on this new planet. His Majesty would prefer staying on Planet Terra and some of you may also not like changes and losing your homes so we're doing our best to see if we can defeat the Acolytes of the Nether and recover Planet Terra from the evil darkness it was consumed by. But if we fail, recreating Demon World on the new planet will be the best option. D.D. Veni signing out.

[Insert random ambiance]
The environment around the camp looked really nice to a lot of demons and looked really peaceful. Honestly, the Resistance Army could stop the war now and come to this planet to live in peace and leave Planet Terra eternally corrupted, which is arguably the best recommendation. However, they still plan on risking their lives to see if Planet Terra can be purified. Patie climbed on the King's trailer to get a good view and was astounded, "Wow, this place looks beautiful. What do you think, Gash-chan?" Gash followed her on top of their trailer and he does like this new place so far but like D.D. Veni said, Gash prefers his birth planet, "It does look nice, but I would still like to see Kiyomaro someday or message him." Patie said, "I understand. Let's hope they stop those bad guys but it will be a lot of work bringing back our planet to normal. I wonder if we could have this planet too." They looked in the sky. They can't see Planet Terra since it's way too far away but Planet Terra would look very gray and cloudy if they could see the planet. They are keeping their hopes up but they'll get over it if Planet Terra is really unrecoverable. The only loss would be the permanent loss of connection to Planet Earth.

Scene: Ruined urban areas north of the Dark Fortress in the Capital (noon)


[Choose random battle music: #1, #2a, #2b, #3]
After General Moko and Major General Barburos defeated Warchief Dan'ro's giant earth golems in their giant forms via Dikaruku and sprinted towards the Dark Fortress, they saw a giant beast in front of the fortress, summoning dark hellhounds all over the capital. General Moko wondered, "What is that undead creature?" Major General Moko didn't care and readied his giant warhammer and giant battle axe, "Heh, I'll crush it into nothing." The two regrouped with General Whir's army. General Moko said, "General Whir, we'll handle that beast." General Whir was slaying some hellhounds with his thunderbolt short swords and he replied, "Right, I'll get the Dark Lord." General Moko said, "Unless if you have any sealing spells, we can't defeat the Dark King. You know that." General Whir said, "Yes, of course, I am aware of that. Major General Rosella or General Karoa, one of them should be here by the time I've weakened the Dark Lord enough while avoiding wasteful kills on him." General Whir speeds forward towards the Dark Fortress alone while slashing through undead and infernal creatures.

Major General Barburos in his giant form made a long jump and whaled on the undead Behemoth with his massive warhammer and battle axe, dealing immense damage as Behemoth roared. Knowing Major General Barburos's immense physical strength, he could actually stand a chance against an archdevil like Behemoth alone since Leviasatan as a demon could slay him alone without spells. The only major problem would be the plagued lands healing Behemoth's undead body, making him nearly immortal as an undead archdevil.

"Not so fast, Resistance scums!" Warchief Dan'ro enters the battlefield with rocks levitating around his body. All of the red-robed acolytes followed Dan'ro on buildings including Hyenus Maximus and Thodrum Thunderbeard while his army of orcish Death Knights stormed on the ground with skeletal horses. Dan'ro then summoned more giant earth golems and used ghosts to control the golems. These earth golems growled with spiritual green flames in their mouths. General Moko said, "Everyone, keep advancing, I'll handle the Warchief." Warchief Dan'ro said, "This is the end for you, Resistant maggots! You don't stand a chance. Raaaaagh! From their souls, I call upon warriors from the dead." Warchief Dan'ro incants Oruryūdon and lifting his shaman scepter, souls release from his scepter and they form into their original bodies in red acolyte robes. From left to right, he has summoned Zega and Zecross of Demon Revolution Army, Araneae Zer'ghul of Laughing Deathstock Gang and Arachnid Army, Orgo of Laughing Deathstock Gang, and a white n' blonde-beared dwarven demon of the Laughing Deathstock Gang with blue eyes. Zeon was surprised, "What? Zega and Zecross? Since when?" Even Hyenus and Thodrum were surprised, especially Thodrum, seeing his dead brother into the mix, "Is... Is that pure Cid? mah muckle bro?!" ⟨"Is... Is that really Cid? My big bro?!"⟩ Hyenus wondered, "But how? I knew he had Araneae and Orgo, but Cid as well?"

Flashback Scene: Outside the Capital of Demon World (a month ago)


As the remaining members of the Laughing Deathstock Gang and the Arachnid Army were battling against the Demon Resistance Army in the capital city, outside the edge of town, a Laughing Deathstock Gang member asked, "Hey, has anyone seen Cid? He's been gone for over a day and we could really use his help." Another member said while fighting against a Demon Resistance soldier, "Now's not the time to be asking—Ahh!" The second spoken member of the Laughing Deathstock Gang was killed by one of the resistance soldiers that was brutally attacking the Laughing Deathstock Gang members and arachnid centaurian demons.

This was on the same day the Acolytes of the Nether would make their attack on the palace but Cid has been traveling on foot within the last few days away from battle.

[Insert random playlist of music]
Somewhere outside of the Capital, Cid Thunderbeard was climbing a mountain. "A' this trip, noo o' a' times? thaim blasted Deathscream orcs. Ah wid lik' tae blaw thair gooney-gumdrops yin o' thae days. A've bin crafting weapons fur thaim fur days 'n' thay aye haven't held thair end o' th' bargain." ⟨"All this trip, now of all times? Them blasted Deathscream orcs. I would like to blow their gooney-gumdrops one of these days. I've been crafting weapons for them for days and they still haven't held their end of the bargain."⟩ Cid approached the orcish Deathscream clan hidden within the mountains. Two orcish guards blocking the wooden gate shouted, "Who dares approach the Deathscream clan?" Cid said to the orcish guards, "Ye ken how come A'm 'ere. A've crafted weapons fur ye a' 'n' ye a' ne'er held up th' end o' th' bargain. Where's Dan'ro-dono? ⟨"You know why I'm here. I've crafted weapons for you all and you all never held up the end of the bargain. Where's Dan'ro-dono?"⟩ One of the orcish guards said, "Dan'ro-sama said it's not enough," while the other said, "Begone, dwarf." Cid's temper went loose, "That's it, Ah hud enough." ⟨"That's it! I had enough."⟩ Cid blew up the wooden gates with a mortar and the orcish guards were knocked out. He then de-summons his mortar bomb cannon.

Cid, as a dwarven blacksmith like his younger brother Thodrum, is skilled in weaponry magic for summoning weapons (medieval and magical weapons), as well as metal magic for summoning different kinds of metal for crafting weapons and bomb magic to summon explosive objects. Cid is stronger than Thodrum but he has been seeking help to defeat Demon World Military (and later Demon Resistance Army) for many days in preparation for this full-on assault on the Demon Capital.

As Cid invaded the orcish village, taking some steps in, orcish warriors and Death Knights surround Cid, preparing to arrest him. Cid didn't flinch and kept his serious expression up with his green golden goggles covering his serious blue eyes. Suddenly, an ominous wind surrounded the area and Dan'ro Deathscream appeared in front of Cid in his orcish shaman outfit. "What's the meaning of this?!" Dan'ro asked furiously. Cid replied fiercely, "We hud a deal, Warchief. Mah craftsmanship fur yer hulp against th' Resistance Airmie. We wur jammy enough tae tak' ower th' throne wi'oot yer a hawn bit we're at a deep disadvantage. A've bult` weapons fur a' o' ye. We require yer a hawn this time 'n' we cannae lest anither day." ⟨"We had a deal, Warchief. My craftsmanship for your help against the Resistance Army. We were lucky enough to take over the throne without your assistance but we're at a deep disadvantage. I've built weapons for all of you. We require your assistance this time and we can't last another day."⟩ Dan'ro threatened him, "Teh, you again. You know what will be better? Your soul. Then the deal will be made!" Cid got angry, "Why ye?" He magically summoned a mortar and quickly fired a bomb from it at Dan'ro. Dan'ro quickly warped to the side and lifted Cid telekinetically, choking him to death and said, "You don't know who I really am. Your deal with the Deathscream is over and so is your leader's reign. Your souls belong to us now, but we'll finish off those Resistance for good to fulfill that trade of yours." Cid screamed in agony as Dan'ro extracts Cid's soul from his body.

After collecting Cid's soul, another ominous wind appeared and the Necrolyte Dark Lord Gul'ren appeared before Dan'ro, saying, "Mlord, the time is nigh." Dan'ro and his Deathscream orcs bowed down, "Milord!" At the same time, Dan'ro magically summoned his blue necrolyte robes over his shaman clothing. Lord Gul'ren said with a scary-but-serious expression, "With those fools weakened, holding off against the Resistance, we shall take over their palace. Dan'ro, prepare your Death Knights." Dan'ro saluted with his right arm over his chest, "For the Nether," while all his orcish Death Knights shouted, doing the same pose, "For the Nether!" Lord Gul'ren finally said, "We must make haste. The others are ready. We need to reach the palace before the Resistance breaks through. That must not be allowed..."

Thus began the Acolytes of the Nether's surprise attack on the ruined Bell family palace...

Scene: Ruined urban areas south of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


[Insert random batttle music]
Back on Planet Terra in the southern area of the planet's capital, as D.D. Veni's and C.S. Galactica's soldiers were having trouble trying to destroy Stalghor's undead dragon transformation and Stalghor's skeletal legion. However, "Heads up." C.S. Galactica's consciousness has returned to her body. Suddenly, a giant meteor fell through Terra's atmosphere and smashed against Stalghor's bones, dealing immense damage but the giant meteor broke into many pieces. C.S. Galactica said, "D.D., if we want to get this over with, encase him with my meteor." D.D. Veni complained, "What took you so long?" but he understood. He used his telekinetic powers to move the broken meteor around Stalghor's damaged undead dragon body to trap Stalghor inside it. Suddenly, several giant purple laser beams from space suddenly fired on Stalghor about ten seconds later while Stalghor was trying to break out of the meteor and Stalghor's bones broke into many pieces as Stalghor roared in pain. C.S. Galactica explained, "I managed to receive permission from Planet Garnet's Magical Space Foundation to use their satellite laser cannons." D.D. Veni said, "You could have used it on that undead beast back there." C.S. Galactica covers her mouth and said, "Oops, didn't notice. Hmm, such an astonishing creature isn't it? Be right back." D.D. Veni gave a strange look at C.S. Galactica before Galactica teleported away from battle but D.D. Veni stayed focus on Stalghor and trapped his broken bones even further with those meteorites. D.D. Veni then said, "Everyone, stand back. Hoo-ha!" D.D. Veni used his dimensional powers to banish the enclosed meteorites with Stalghor's bones inside it another dimension. Stalghor's undead army fell into pieces with his disappearance.

Sergeant Major Ashuron wondered, "Is it over?" D.D. Veni didn't sense any remains of Stalghor and hoped, "I hope that takes care of Stalghor for good. Huh?! Everyone, heads up! We got beasts coming our way." Seems to be an anti-climatic ending of a ferocious final battle but could it really be the final battle against the Demon Beast Skeleton? As long as a single bone of Stalghor remains in the blighted lands of Demon World, he'll always come back.

Anyway, hundreds of Behemoth's Hellhounds of Fury are approaching and D.D. Veni wondered, "Galactica, what were you thinking...?"

Scene: Near of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


In the northern area of the Dark Fortress, Major General Barburos was brutally slashing and hacking Behemoth in his giant form. Despite the amount of effort of damage he is putting into the undead Behemoth, Behemoth's unholy undead body keeps regenerating from the blighted lands. Behemoth made a loud roar and fired lightning from his horns via Lightning Curse: Lightning Horns at Barburos, which dealt a great deal of electrical damage to him but Barburos is enduring the attack to the best he could and fought back, slashing Behemoth with his battle axe, shouting, "Errrr! Why won't you die?!" After regenerating again, Behemoth roared into the air, breathing hellfire into the air via Fire Curse: Hellfire Breath. Following that up, Fire Curse: Hellfirestorm was unleashed all over the capital at all battlefields. The entire city was being rained by infernal fireballs. Marshal General Zeno Bell shouted, "Everyone, watch out!" Everyone kept their guard up and some used shield spells to defend themselves and others for this upcoming bombardment. However, a green psychic shield appeared over the entire capital, protecting everyone from the Rains of Inferno.

D.D. Veni was floating in mid-air, near the center of the capital as he defended everyone from utter destruction. He may be exhausted from it but he managed to protect everyone. His psychic powers are overwhelmingly overpowered. Who is this demon and even though he is a Lieutenant General Royal Knight, how does he have such powerful psychic powers to even stop the immense powers of Spirit World magic? D.D. Veni descended down to General Whir's army and Marshal General Zeon said, "Thanks, D.D." Marshal General Zeon was focusing on his battle with Zega and Zecross. D.D. Veni breathed heavily but wondered, "I see you are in need of assistance. We've just gone through the Demon Beast Skeleton." Zeon said, "I can handle these two on my own. I know how their powers work. Help the others against those resurrected Laughing Deathstock Gang members. How are you feeling?" D.D. Veni said, "Exhausted. My head is really banging after blocking that area attack, but I'll be fine. I'm on it. My soldiers should be on their way." Zeon said, "Don't overdo yourself. We need you." Zeon then dodged a beam attack of twilight energy casted by Zega (via Shirairuga) and a beam attack of darkness casted by Zecross (via Shidoruga). They aren't exactly "undead" but their souls are under the mind control of Dan'ro Deathscream. Zeon is strong enough and knows his enemies well enough to take them on by himself, especially since Zecross's powers have been weakened by King Gul'ren.

The resurrected Laughing Deathstock Gang members attacked soldiers from other angles. Orgo stunned soldiers with his Gravity Scream and while immobile, some soldiers were shot by poisonous arrows from Araneae Zer'ghul's X-Spider Bow and some soldiers were blasted by bombs and shotgun shells from Cid Thunderbeard's mortar and boomstick respectively. Thodrum tried calling for his brother, "Cid, Cid, ower 'ere!!! kin ye hear me?" ⟨"Cid, Cid, over here!! Can you hear me?"⟩ No response; his soul was under the Warchief's control. Hyenus Maximus said, "It's no use. His soul is being controlled." Thodrum was worried, "Och, Cid. Whit did thay dae tae ye, Muckle Bro?" ⟨"Oh, Cid. What did they do to you, Big Bro?"⟩ All of the other acolytes besides Hyenus Maximus and Thodrum Thunderbeard were attacking the soldiers. Cid de-summons his mortar and boomstick and summoned a giant laser cannon, firing a massive magical laser beam of destruction at soldiers that caused a large magical explosion. This weapon is nearly unblockable and may even obliterate targets into nothing on direct contact. A lot of soldiers were killed instantly from that one blast with a few having their bodies completely erased. Thodrum wondered, "That's his Ultima Cannon. Jings, crivens, help ma boab, that thing kin wreck nations whin charged tae maximum. Whit shuid we dae, Boss?" ⟨"That's his Ultima Cannon. Blimey, that thing can wreck nations when charged to maximum. What should we do, Boss?"⟩ Hyenus Maximus just watches the war enrage and remains motionless, "I—I'm not sure anymore." The two just watch the battle while the rest of the acolytes engages action against the Resistance. Thodrum and Hyenus are the only ones remaining neutral in this battle as they are unsure on what they should do.

On the opposite side of Dark Fortress, General Moko (normal-sized) is pursuing Dan'ro Deathscream, pushing the orcish warlock away from the fortress. They both use the power of the earth to attack each other until they got to a point where they are in a good spot to really spar each other. As Dan'ro Deathscream was using the earth to build himself an armor of stone, covering his entire body via Doruku, he said, "You persistent scum. I'll show you my true power as a geomancer. Gyaahhh! Come, my phantom earth golems and earth elementals!" Dan'ro summoned giant earth golems possessed by ghosts and summoned spirits made of earth energy. He also enlarges his earth armor to this point where he becomes an earth giant and Moko re-incants, "Dikaruku!" enlarging himself to Dan'ro's armor size. Both warriors of earth engage battle with Warchief Dan'ro shouting, "Give me your best shot, General! For the Nether!" General Moko said, "As the Paladin of Land, I'll show you my strength and justice! Come, my soldiers!" Also without providing spell incantations, General Moko summoned giant lava golems from the ground to counter the Warchief's phantom earth golems and earth elementals.

Foreshadowed Scene (Timeline A): A throne room in another dimension on Demon World


In the future timeline (Timeline A), the three Paladins of Nature have battled against the Deathscream clan in another dimension during the Demon Revolutionary War and the apocalyptic war. In that timeline, after acquiring the Eye of the Dreadlord, Warchief Dan'ro Deathscream and his orcish warriors betrayed the Dark Lord to acquire more power than they could ever imagine, across space, with the Eye of the Dreadlord. Dan'ro Deathscream, who had red skin at the time for some unknown power up, was immensely more powerful in that timeline that he defeated and killed Sir Moko as Moko was crumbled into that pieces. In the aftermath of that battle, where the paladins finally killed Warchief Dan'ro, Sir Karoa was unconscious, near death. Sir Rajin barely lived as well with his left arm ripped off and he did his best to drag Sir Karoa to the Eye of the Dreadlord and warp them out of the chaotic dimension. But it is unknown whether they returned safely back into Demon World.

Even though Warchief Dan'ro defeated General Moko in the future timeline, General Moko would still have a chance against him in the past timeline even though Dan'ro is still very powerful in the past. Though, General Moko would still have a disadvantage since his body is made of minerals from the earth and that Dan'ro is a master of the element of earth and thus, could possibly manipulate him.

Scene: Ruined urban areas east of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World


Meanwhile, in the battle against Zon'mortuis and his horde of zombies, General Karoa seems to be very exhausted. A Colonel-ranked aquatic soldier in her army was worried, "General, General, are you okay?" General Karoa said, "I'll be fine. Heh heh... Just need to be focused." The Colonel said, "You aren't looking too good. You lost most of your soul against the Immortal Assassin." As General Karoa was gasping for air, she told everyone, "Everyone, get out of here. I'm finishing this now." Her Colonel was very worried, "Don't do what I think you'll do. You'll die if you use it in your current condition." She yelled, "Go now!" then said softly, "Please..." Tears fell dropped from her eyes, behind her knight visor. The Colonel was worried but said, "Understood," and ordered everyone else, "Everyone, pull back, now!" As they were retreating, Karoa said, "This time, I'll make sure you'll be sealed away forever. Shin Furizudon!" As she slammed the bottom crystal of her water trident on the ground, the entire ground was freezing and the air was also freezing. "What is this...?" asked Zon'mortuis with his deep voice while he was invisible. General Karoa found him, "There you are," and focused all of her attention in that direction and incanted, "Gigano Akuruga!" firing a large beam of water at Zon'mortuis and while the water spell was in motion, it was quickly freezing by Shin Furizudon and she managed to hit Zon'mortuis while he was invisible. "No..." Zon'mortuis turned visible and he was slowly turning into crystal-solid ice. General Karoa then surrounded the ice with more ice and submerged Zon'mortuis deep into the frozen earth. All of the zombies in the area were frozen and shattered.

After the final attack, General Karoa fainted and dropped to the ground, freezing to death as well. Her Colonel returned and yelled, "General!" A Major also called out for her, "Karoa-sama!" Another asked in worrisome, "Is she...?!" Her Colonel checked on her and was surprised, "Ugh! She lives but she's in no condition to move. Medic, we need medic! Hurry!" Some of the medics tried to help save her. Will Karoa be alright or is the end for her?

Scene: Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


[Insert random character theme]
Some seconds after the strange entity disappeared from the Dark Fortress to retrieve the Eye of the Dreadlord, the Dark King turned his back and proceeded to return to his castle until he was suddenly assassinated with great speed by General Whir and his thunderbolt swords. A grand entrance from General Whir.

Lord Gul'ren laughed as he was putting his soul and body back together, "Hehehehe... I must say General, that was quite an entrance." General Whir said, "How about you stay dead, Your Dark Majesty?" Lord Gul'ren said, "Coming here alone? You must have some kind of death wish, General. Actually, you all have death wishes if you think you can stop my reign. All full-on attack? Tehehe, the last time you've done such a thing was a miserable attempt and you gave us a lot of your men. Gave me no choice but to unleash the wrath of the former King of Demon World." General Whir said while holding his left thunderbolt sword horizontally back, "And we defeated Bell-sama at a great cost. But we now know what you are all capable by now. We intend this to be our final battle and even if we fail, our real King will still be in the hands of a new planet, safe from your hands." Lord Gul'ren chuckled, "Teh, so that's why young Bell and the others disappeared from your headquarters. Heh! I got a question for you, General: If you have found another planet in the galaxy for your... 'King'... to live on, why bother staying on this dreadful planet when there is no hope for you left? Why waste your lives for nothing?" As the two slowly walk in a circle, facing each other with their guards up, General Whir answered, "It's His Young Majesty's preferred place to rule over; to keep in touch with the Human World. We've promised His Young Majesty that we'll put an end to this and bring back his crown and throne even if it cost all of our lives. Where is his crown anyway?" Lord Gul'ren answered, "Teh, you'll have to defeat me to get to it. It's very well hidden in my fortress." General Whir then asked, "Another thing I would like to ask you, Your Majesty, how did you get access to D.D.'s pocket dimension?"

Lord Gul'ren chuckled, "Heh, have you ever heard of a Demon King called Malfournis the Dreadlord?" General Whir said, "I have been a General for a few generations. There are many Kings I have heard in our history; evil and benevolent ones. Your point?" King Gul'ren said, "Do you know why he was called a 'dreadlord'? Malfournis possessed power that exceeded beyond our world. He possesses two different types of magical eyes. The left eye, containing an immense amount of psychic power which can be used to torment people's minds. And the right eye, which can cause dimensional distortions across the entire universe. While his left eye disappeared upon his death centuries after he took over the throne, his right eye stayed in this world, buried beneath his stronghold... My brother's stronghold." General Whir was interested in hearing this story as they continued slowly circling each other, "Your brother?" Lord Gul'ren said, "Ten thousand years ago, my elder brother, Zal'gor, was King of Demon World. He had a good and strong will. I became a prince. Though sadly, his reign ended short, just like your young King. The week later, our stronghold was invaded by a powerful demon sorcerer and his dreadlord. The dreadlord betrayed his master, killed my family, and took over the throne. Their souls became lost outside of space and time from his Right Eye of Dimensional Distortion and there was nothing I can do about it even after acquiring these dark powers." General Whir understood, "I see. And you expect me to give you any sympathy after what you've done?" Lord Gul'ren stopped moving and responded, "It doesn't matter at this point. You are all doomed to death anyway for staying here, and I'll rebuild the world to the way my lost brother intended. In fact..."

General Whir's soul was starting to be extracted by Gul'ren's dark scepter, "Your soul will be mine." Whir's body suddenly disappeared into the wind as if it wasn't really him. Gul'ren wondered, "Hmm..." General Whir stood behind Lord Gul'ren with his right thunderbolt sword across Gul'ren's neck and Gul'ren smirked, "Heh, a wind clone, ehh?" General Whir said, "You are under arrest, Milord. Surrender peacefully." Gul'ren was impressed with the General's abilities, "Impressive, most impressive. But not good enough, General."

Lord Gul'ren teleported away from General Whir as Whir tried to get a hold of him and Gul'ren appeared several feet away from General Whir and fired bolts of purple lightning at Whir, electrocuting him in a mysterious way, "Geh? What kind of electricity... Is this? Feels like it's pulling my soul away." Gul'ren explained while shocking him from his hands, "Ryū Zakeru. In other words, Phantom Lightning Attack. It attacks directly at your soul." In other words, in RPG (role-playing game) terms, Ryū Zakeru is a lightning-elemental attack that would permanently drain a target's maximum HP (Hit Points) over time. It's a ghost-enhancement of Zakeru that can continuously be held for damage over time. General Whir may be affiliated with lightning and can resist lightning magic but this spiritual lightning magic has a different shocking feel that General Whir is not used to, but General Whir manages to break free from it and retaliated with electrical aerial blades from his thunderbolt swords at Lord Gul'ren. Suddenly, a giant skeletal hand appeared from the ground to shield Lord Gul'ren from the long-ranged electrical attacks before the hand sunk back into the ground and disappear. General Whir wondered, "What was that?"

Lord Gul'ren chuckled, "Heh, this is the power of the Lich King, the King of the Undead and the God of Undeath." Ominous darkness was surrounding Lord Gul'ren as a giant humanoid skeleton was appearing from the ground with a round crown on its head and geared up with metal armor, a bladed scepter (which was formed from Gul'ren's scepter, in shape of a spear), and a bony shield. In other words, this creature protecting Lord Gul'ren is known as the Lich King's Warrior Mode but there is more to it as Lord Gul'ren says, "In other words, I am the Lich King. It what makes me invincible." That explains where his self-resurrection ability came from. If Whir could permanently destroy or seal this Lich King entity, perhaps Lord Gul'ren can become vulnerable to death but that's currently just a theory.

The Lich King entity casts ghostly fire magical attacks from its scepter at General Whir as he dodges the Lich King's attacks with his speed and engages battle with it. A voice said in King Gul'ren's head, my acolyte, the time is near. In a few moments, I should exist once more. You and the others will handsomely be rewarded if this succeeds. King Gul'ren replied telekinetically, Thank you, my Master. I shall be there soon. King Gul'ren suddenly teleported away from the fortress to let his Lich King Warrior deal with General Whir for a moment.

Scene: Near of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


[Insert random battle music]
As Major General Barburos was beating Behemoth, Behemoth retaliated by bashing into Barburos with his horns and knocked Barburos down. Behemoth the roared in the air and prepared to cast Dark Fire: Hellhounds of Fury again. However, a familiar Royal Knight was floating high above him, holding the Eye of the Dreadlord, and thought to itself in a demonic voice, it's time to end this charade and commence Operation: Null and become whole again. I require a huge amount of Spirit World energy and Behemoth's power should be just enough and pieces of me should be arriving soon. Some time ago, around the entire galaxy on other planets, nether spirits are exiting out of alien bodies and disappearing, heading their way to Planet Terra, and some of these nether spirits killed strange witnesses on their respective planets that may be a threat to them. Some of these nether spirits that are also lurking in Spirit World are also disappearing and reappearing in Demon World. The nether spirit that is in possession of a familiar Royal Knight that is wielding the Eye of the Dreadlord, aims its scepter at Behemoth and incants, "Death Nether: Death Ray..." and fires a dark purple laser beam at the undead Behemoth from above, instantly killing him without him resurrecting. His remaining spiritual particles that Leviasatan missed out on scattered through the air. "What the heck was that?!" Major General Barburos wondered as his axe swing missed Behemoth. He and all of the other soldiers noticed that Behemoth disappeared as well and noticed someone floating in the air as the entity extracted Behemoth's final remains. "Galactica?" Barburos noticed.

It can't be! Was it really that sweet extra-terrestrial Royal Knight all along? After Zeon defeated Zega and Zecross, he looked up and said, "How did Galactica take out that beast in a single hit? No matter, it's finally destroyed." They seem to be naïve on who she really is. After D.D. Veni took care of a few Laughing Deathstock Gang members, he was feeling very anxious and started sweating, "No... It can't—I knew it..."

While Behemoth's fragmented corpse was surrounding C.S. Galactica, Galactica used her scepter to duplicate the Eye of the Dreadlord and incants, "Void Nether: Exclusion [空冥気：除外, Kūmeiki: Jogai]," and banishes the duplicated Eye of the Dreadlord straight into the world of nothingness. Nether spirits from other planets are gathering to Planet Terra and C.S. Galactica along with the rest of them are preparing to use the power of the Dimensional Right Eye of the Dreadlord from both sides of to open the void from the other side and they use Behemoth's powers to help open the void. The same nether spirits are also in the void, using the duplicated Right Eye.

"I knew you were behind this, Galactica... No, whoever you are!" D.D. Veni yelled. He now knows the truth as Galactica's mind is different. D.D. Veni chases after C.S. Galactica but he suddenly got hit by a powerful magical shockwave that C.S. Galactica unleashed from her body, which also acted as a shield. D.D. Veni landed on the ground and yelled, "Ugh! You will not get away with this." Zeon wondered, "What do you mean by that?" D.D. Veni said, "I was right. C.S. Galactica is the traitor—No—Whoever's been controlling her. They are the one who killed Golbar." They were surprised, "What?!" Whenever C.S. Galactica "meditates into the cosmos," the nether spirit within her sneaks out of her body and remains undetectable, but Galactica's real consciousness is within space during that time. In fact, this nether spirit first found Galactica when she was floating in the vacuum of space unconsciously after many eons after her escape pod was destroyed. After posessing Galactica's body, the nether spirit took this alien demon to Planet Terra to look for ways to bring the "Master" back while other nether spirits took over other people on other planets to look for ways too. These nether spirits are nearly undetectable from demons and these nether spirits can use their hosts' personality and memories to further keep them unsuspected but D.D. Veni's mind is too good that he has suspected Galactica for a long time. He seems to know these things. Who is D.D. Veni?

The nether spirit within C.S. Galactica said with Galactica's voice, "If I could kill you now Lieutenant General D.D. Veni—No—General Venierro—I would but I'm busy at the moment and require focus. Now stay down and be a good boy, half-breed." D.D. Veni shouted, "I will not let you succeed." Zeon wondered, "Why'd she call you a General?" C.S. Galactica laughed, "Oh ho ho ho ho! I'm not the only one who's been keeping secrets. So tell me, General Venierra of the Nephalem Military Police Force, how much longer will you keep that ugly disguise? You can't fool me with that clone in Spirit World, especially since I now know that the other you in that world is really a dimensional clone. Or are you the clone? So, did the old goat sent you to spy on me? I'm certain that he sent agents on many planets where my essences were lurking." D.D. Veni now knows what those nether spirits were planning, "So, that was your plan. Now I understand Operation Null and I won't let you succeed," and tried attacking C.S. Galactica and the nether spirits in the air with green psion bolts. A magical barrier is protecting C.S. Galactica and nether spirits, though. Galactica said, "It's too late, half-breed. It's over."

Marshal General Zeon asked, "Lieutenant General? What is the meaning of this?" D.D. Veni paused for a few seconds and C.S. Galactica taunted him, "Yes, General Venierro, what is the meaning of this? Hmm?" D.D. Veni explained, "My apologies for keeping secrets this entire time, Your Highness. I don't deserve to be a Royal Knight anymore due to my secrecy that I kept from you all but for good reasons. My real name is Venierro and like Galactica, I'm not from this planet. In fact, I'm not from this living world..." The mothman-like Royal Knight uses his upper left arm and ripped off his bug-like mouth off his face, revealing a manly face. His moth wings morphed into white angel wings and he is now equipped with blue, sleeveless rune armor, but he still has bug-like antennas and bug-like compound eyes (or anthropod eyes) Everyone was shocked. Venierro flaps his white angel wings that are hanging from wing guards  and said, "I am a nephalem, an angel-demon hybrid. I'm a General of the Nephalem Military Police Force in the afterlife, known as Spirit World; one of the military's strongest warriors."

Foreshadowed Scene (Timeline A): Near the entrance of the Zer'ghul Colony in Demon World


The three Paladins of the Universe, including Sir Golbar, Sir Veni, and Sir Galactica, were responsible for the defeat of Araneae Zer'ghul and her army of arachnid centuarian demons around the entrance of Araneae's underground colony in Timeline A. Their battle started during the middle of the Demon Revolutionary War and their battle has ended during the time the apocalyptic war began and the three paladins came out alive in the end. During this time, Galactica was still possessed by that nether spirit and she was watching the battle fold out between archangels and archdevils on Demon World during Ragnarök from a far distance. D.D. Veni still had his suspicions while Golbar was very well naïve.

After the battle, Sir Golbar sighed and said, "Ehh, that's the last of them. Glad I didn't have to rewind time today." Sir Veni said, "We've got new problems in Demon World. We must make haste." They grouped with Galactica and Sir Veni said, "This is terrible. I can't believe this is happening." Golbar wondered what was going on, "Who are those giant creatures?" Galactica chuckled in her mouth, "Hmhmhmhm," and said, "Well, let's find out, shall we." It was at that moment, Veni had heightened his suspicion on Galactica. As they were traveling together, Galactica slowed herself to get behind the group while remaining mindless. Sir Golbar wondered, "The city. The world. It's being destroyed." Sir Veni said, "We must hurry or else..." Suddenly, without any warning, the nether spirit within Sir Galactica casted Death Nether: Death Beam and killed Golbar from behind as he screamed in agony for a split second, "Argh!" before falling down. Sir Veni shouted, "Golbar! Darn you, I knew something was wrong about you. You are—" He suddenly stopped moving, then experienced unknown pain in his body, "Ahhh!" Galactica walked passed him and said, "I cannot allow you to reveal my true identity. Death Nether: Death Ray." Sir Veni was also killed and he was transforming back to his original nephalem form. The nether spirit within Sir Galactica said, "Oh, so you were General Venierro after all. With Death Nether, by killing one of them, all should be gone." With that statement, it means that General Venierro as a dimensional clone in Spirit World died as well and no one knew how it happened.

The nether spirit within Sir Galactica said, "Hmm, since I've taken out two of my biggest threats, I guess I no longer need this body," and left Sir Galactica's body, then incanted, "Death Ray," on Galactica's body to kill her before she could awaken. The nether spirit disappeared and reappeared in Behemolith Town near Belphebub during his battle with Mars, Great Angelic Saint of Diligence and Temperance, God of War, and General of the Angel Peacekeeping Army.

Belphebub ensnared General Mars with his Chain Curse: Capture and started slamming Mars all over town in anger. The nether spirit watched the battle while remaining completely invisible and undetectable as if it was trying to be non-exist-able. After Belphebub slammed him a more few times with his cursed chains from his chain shackle, Mars looked up while he was injured and said in a silly tone, "Hehe... Hey buddy, how's it going?" Belphebub yelled, "You hurt Belphebub's friends. You woke me up from my beautiful sleep. And you hurt my feelings, calling me names. I'll rip that armor off and eat your soul! Raaaagh!!!" The nether spirit said, "Yes, that it. Keep going Belphebub. Awaken your true form, destroy this world, and use your hidden powers to free our master." The nether spirit raised its hand towards Belphebub and caused Belphebub's anger and evilness to increase, pushing Belphebub to become so enraged, his inner God of Destruction self went loose as both voices of Belphebub yelled, "Anti-Chain Curse: Breaking the Seal! RAAAAAGH!!!" transforming the Lord of the Flies into his original God of Destruction form. So that's how Belphebub acquired enough rage to break his cursed chains and return to this form. But in the end, it became a failure and the God of the Nether was forever trapped in the void for eternity in that timeline.

Scene: Near of the Dark Fortress in the Capital of Demon World (noon)


Major General Barburos, still in his giant form said, "You lied to us this whole time?! You worked for another military?! I'll deal with you later but first, this traitor." Barburos jumped high in the air while trying to attack C.S. Galactica but one of the nether spirits that weren't busy opening the portal to the void got in Barburos' way and incanted, "Death Nether: Death Ray!" firing a dark purple beam of death from its dark incorporeal right hand, instantly killing Barburos without harming him, "Arrrgh!" He reverted back to his original size and fell to the ground lifeless. Everyone shouted for him, "Major General!"/"Barburos-sama!" The nether spirit within C.S. Galactica said, "Ya know what, the portal is nearly complete. You can have her body back. I have no need for her anymore." The dark spirit exited out of C.S. Galactica's body as Galactica fell towards the ground, barely conscious, but the spirit decided to kill its host, "Death Nether: Death Ray..." However, Venierro teleports to Galactica and carries her away before the dark beam of instant death struck them as it hit the ground instead, not damaging the earth. As Venierro held Galactica up on the ground, Galactica feels agonized, "Gehhh..." Venierro was worried about Galactica and looked up, yelling at the spirit who controlled her, "You will pay for what you did to Golbar, Barburos, and Galactica!" He gently sat Galactica on the ground and flew up in the air with his four white angel wings in armor. He prepared to swing his spear, incanting, "Dimension Æther: Dimensional Blade [次元霊気：次元刃 Jigenreiki: Jigenjin]!" slicing through the air with his spear across the sky. A dimensional rift was being sliced open as the nether spirits dodged the dimensional aerial blades while avoiding the dimensional cracks in the sky. The other soldiers were surprised to see this kind of dimensional power coming from Venierro with some soldiers saying, "He cut through the sky?"/"I didn't know he could do that."/"What kind of power is that?" The nether spirit that controlled Galactica incanted, "Death Ray!" and fired a nether beam of death at Venierro but he teleported away via Dimension Æther: Body Phase [次元霊気：体相, Jigenreiki: Teisō] without incantation. In his original nephalem form (still resembling insect-like but more human-like), Venierro can no longer use his Demon World magic but he now has access to his Spirit World powers such as Dimension Æther and he still has his psychic mastery. In other words, his type of powers haven't really changed much, but his Spirit World variations are an improvement.

[Insert random character theme]
Galactica's nether spirit said in a deep, mysterious-but-creepy tone, "It's time. You shall all meet my master, Guthorax-sama, God of the Nether; King of the Void." As the Right Eye of the Dreadlord from the existing world and the void were linked and with the use of Behemoth's spiritual remains, a black portal grew big enough on both sides that a giant nether deity slowly flew through the portal above Planet Terra along with more nether spirits and what appears to be shaded nephalems and shaded devils. Normally, anything can enter the void but nothing can escape the void but today, with the power of two Dimensional Right Eyes of the Dreadlord in each world—creating dimensional distortions simultaneously—the impossible became possible. This deity of the nether, Guthorax, said, "After all of these eons, finally, I exist once more..."

This Guthorax resembles to be an archnephalem (angel-demon deity) with no corporeal body. His entire body was shaded in darkness and was transparent with a purple aura glowing around the edges of his body. He has four shaded angel wings and shaded horns on his forehead and no openings to his body (like he has no visible mouth or visible ears, yet, he can still speak and hear). Has the void corrupted this archnepalem into this... dark archnephalem? What has Guthorax done to be banished from Spirit World Kingdom and why was he banished in the first place? What could this mean for Demon World, Spirit World, or even the magical universe? Does he have a grudge on anyone? Does he have any evil intentions? If so, could it be the end of the magical universe?
