FIGHTING THROUGH A HEAVEN Location the Horror Dungeon Final Area
The guys traveled through the Persona 4, based dungeon. A literal heaven. As soon enough, Ren and the gang came across their first new enemy. A trio of shadows, from the same type. Golden gloves, with a head of a blank cyan mask with "I" number on top of the mask. The collar looks like elegant piece. With a red bow-tie, and buttons. Lastly red nail polish. These are Luxury Hands. One of the luxury hand, floats off the ground and snapped its fingers, while pointing at Issei. As a purplish thunderbolt, crashed at Issei's location. If not for his speed and growing experience. He'd would have been, shocked by the lightning spell. Laharl checked on Issei, and yell at the guys to take out the shadows. Gyutaro rush the right luxury hand. Slashing away at the shadow, with Kiba doing the same to the middle shadow. Ranma and Ren targeted the last shadow. Once Issei calmed down, he went to help out Kiba, Laharl did the same with Gyutaro. Their collective beatdown, took out the luxury hands. Dying and bursting into shadowy particles. Leaving behind a considerable amount yellow exp. Not surprising to Laharl. They absorbed the exp-drops, and continued on. Soon more luxury hands, along with other shadows came to attack them. One of the shadows, resembles a woman statue, sitting on a ornamental chair. Carved with a dress and large hat. Holding a black heart in one hand, and a baby on the other hand. Wearing a feminine, almost royal looking shadow mask of a peach color. With a Roman three on the forehead, this is a Growth Relic. That tried to drain their strength, only for Ranma to avoid the spell. And with a super ki-charged fist, smashed the face of the shadow. Taking out the growth relic, in one blow. Leaving orange and yellow exp-drops. The other shadow, amongst this group of monsters. Are Dark Eagles, resembling raven like harpies. With a feminine upper body. Resembling a empress, with a long collar, and the empress shadow mask, like the growth relic. Ren shot them, Laharl beheaded a dark eagle in one stroke. Together they killed these shadows. The dark eagles, left behind yellow and blue exp-drops. Seems that this level of the Horror Dungeon is primary a magic based, exp focus. Again not surprising. Since in all honesty, he'd rarely used physical skills in those games. Focusing on elemental, support, buffing, and debuff skills. Shrugging. Laharl he turned to the guys. Pumped for their latest victory. Laharl, he'd smiled. Walking over to Gyutaro, fist bumping his brother-in-law. Making the sickle-devil, smile and with that. They have grown in magical power, and stat. With that, they went on the Heaven version of Nanako's. They were eager to conquer the dungeon, and finishing the Kuoh dungeons. That's when Kiba, came up with something. He'd asked the guys. Saying, "Laharl-senpai, what happens when a area is completely cleared of dungeons?" this question, hit Laharl. Since this will be the first time, he'd conquered a territory of all its dungeon. Laharl honestly responded, that he didn't know. Once they conquer the Horror Dungeon, they'll know what will happen. Kiba nodded. As they continued their travel, through the Horror Dungeon. More luxury hands, and growth relics. The guys, together they eliminated the shadows. Absorbing all the exp-drops, from the defeated shadows. Gyutaro asked Laharl-nii, if he wanted to collect anything from the dungeon. Laharl shuke his head. As the shadows don't leave behind loot or bodies, plus nothing in Nanako's Heaven, was worth looting and selling. Gyutaro, he laughed. Telling him that he is screwed in this dungeon. Laharl and the others laughed at Gyutaro's comment, but not disagreeing with him.
MORE BATTLES Going up some flights of stairs. They went into the next floor. They encounter more luxury hands, along with a new shadow. Finicky Papillons. A small swarm of golden and orange butterflies, the one at the top, holding a red sorrowful mask. That has a Roman six on the forehead. The papillons were fluttering, in between the luxury hands. These finicky papillons are mainly support shadows, weak and meant to buff the other shadows. Laharl told Ren to aim, at the butterfly shadows. As the rest they took care of the other shadows. Ren didn't falter. Taking aim of his StormFlower, and started firing his sickle-smgs. Quickly taking out the butterfly shadows, before they can provide buff, at the other shadows. Gyutaro, Ranma, Issei, Ren, and Kiba quickly killed the gold hand shadows. Evading zionga, agilao, and bufula cast on them. In a few moments, only yellow and white exp-drops remained, on the heavenly path. The papillons, seems to give only white exp. Good thing to know, with that the guys went on. Eager to reach Namatame no Kunino-sagiri, and beat the final Boss of the Horror Dungeon. But it seems this final area, wasn't letting them rest. As more luxury hands, growth relics, finicky papillons, and dark eagles kept popping out, and attacking the devils. Eventually, a new enemy emerged. A shadow known as Prime Magus appeared. A red and gold robed, with a jester like hat. White gloved hands, with massive pair of shadow hands like wings on the back. A cyan shadow mask on their faces. Fire spellcasters. Kiba attacked with his Flame Delete sword, slashing the fire mage shadows. Causing massive damage, even when they tried to blast a massive magical fire-burst. But Kiba's ice demonic sword, consumes flame, hence what he'd design it for. In the end, Kiba took out the new shadow, all the prime magus, burst into particles leaving behind yellow and orange exp-drops. Issei and Ren congratulated Kiba, making the prince like knight, proud and smile.
Already the six devils, have face and taken out five different shadows. And it was obviously, that they aren't close to the Boss Area. Not that the guys care. They were still eager, and riddling to go on. Facing against more shadows, with the amount and augmentation, these yellow and orange exp-drops gave. Even Laharl's magic and spirit stats, managed to level up. Closing in to the red crystal levels. Right now, his highest level is faded red, soon that will pass to the next level. But that wasn't important. Laharl noticed that Gyutaro was very close, if not already on the threshold to reach High-class devil. Making him to new Peerage King of their group. With Laharl, Sona, Ranma, and Rias filling those spots. Just as this thought finished, from Laharl's mind. More shadows emerged. This is clearly the most brutal dungeon, that Laharl ever challenged. More and more shadows, attack them. And they fought throught the shadows, taking them all. Until they'd found another staircase. Leading to the next floor of the Nanako's Heaven, based area. After a while they'd, were starting to feel a bit fatigue. Even the most violent, Gyutaro, he was also started feeling tired. With that Laharl, sighed and suggested that they can find a corner of the dungeon. Place some magical barrier. So they can rest, agreeing with the Krichevskoy heir, and wondered around the area to find a resting spot.
A BIT OF A BREATHER IN THE DUNGEON After a while, the found a square area. With a huge flower bed. Laharl with Ren help. They didn't only make a makeshift barrier, and Ren used his Tranquility. To fully make them, unconvinced by all the wandering shadows. The six devils, they sat down around the flower pots. Taking a breathe. Some of them, even panted. Ranma stretched his body, with some of his joints cracking. He said out loud, "Man...I never had this kind of excise..." this made Ren, Kiba, Laharl, and Issei laugh. While Gyutaro didn't laugh, he found Ranma's word funny...it just, after soo long. He felt utterly tired. Ranma didn't blame him, even when he was a human. He'd never fought to this degree. Always having matches...it didn't help that not long ago. Laharl, he finally showed him, the manga, original anime, and reboot of his world. And all the young Saotome, had to say is thank. He was grateful, that Laharl saved him of his fate. Not holding back. Laharl showed him, that his mangaka...or God that designed his world, had a twisted obsession of tsundere themed heroines. Akane, which honestly is the worse main heroine in history. He couldn't believe the original Ranma, he'd actually fell for her. Laharl said that his original self, might have developed "Stockholm Syndrome". Ranma couldn't refute, but he was happy now. He has his mom, sister Ranko, and his girls Kodachi, Blake, Melanie, Yang, Shampoo, Kaori, and Ukyo. But returning to his original thoughts, as Ranma took some steps around the small garden area. His world mangaka, not only created Inuyasha. Who made Kagome likeable, and even had a good relationship with her love, Inuyasha himself. But she still fell, into the violent tsundere type. Sighing, at least he wasn't like that simp, and idiot from Love Hina. Meanwhile Kiba was wondering, what new sword to created. Laharl-senpai, had suggested that he should expand his arsenal, just in case. He has Holy Eraser, Flame Delete, Repression Calm, Fire Sword, and the Destruction Sword. Which he'd barely used. Laharl suggested a lightning base weapon for speed, and a darkness or shadow blade. As he looked out in space, with a deep look of contemplation. Gyutaro was still resting, his breathing becoming much even.
Issei was sitting off the side. Talking to the Boosted Gear, in turn conversing with Ddraig. Ddraig was expressing that Issei, he was progressing quite well. He has gained access to twelve boosts, plus his recent increased in magic. His flames have become stronger, Ddraig mentioned that Issei might be close to mastering the Transfer ability. Which pumped Issei. Not only would be a heavy DPS, but he'll be a slight support to. Ddraig sighed...and said, "Sometimes I regret letting you, play League of Legends. Especially after Laharl himself, stated that only certain people can willstand, over use of it..." Issei blushed in embarrassment. As the true reason, he got hooked on LoL, was because of the waifus. Especially when Laharl, stated that many more would be added later. But he did warn Issei, that LoL could lead to toxicity, like CoD. Ren was his chill self. Even with him focused on, channeling his Semblance. He was the more calmed of the group, with his magic and spirit in a high level. His magical regeneration was quite high, and he can keep his semblance on for quite a while. Laharl was laying next to a wall resting. As they were slowly, regaining their strength. Ren calmly asked, Laharl if their "anymore enemies that they're to be watchful for?" Laharl looked at the green theme, Asian looking devil. Laharl sighed, and he started mentioning the Maniacal Books, Raindrop Castles, Rash Panzers, and nearly a dozen more shadows. Issei, Kiba, and even Ren groan lightly. That meant that they'd barely, faced half the enemies that are in this dungeon. Gyutaro started chuckling. Eager to keep fighting...once he is done resting some more. Ranma was thinking the same. Laharl noticed this, and scratching his red and blue hair. He laughed. Cause he'd already knew, what his more battle crazed friends, are thinking. They stayed sitting around the garden. Then they started talking about various things. About the upcoming ceremony, as they were close to conquering all the Kuoh dungeons. And Gyutaro ascending ranks. This made Issei very excited, as soon he'll go to the Sekirei-verse. He wants Yashima, and even the Lightning Twins. Laharl though, "Figures, but Hibiki and Hikari deserve better than that idiot Seo. Should I just kill the ass, once we're there?" But then Laharl had to fight back the laugh, thinking of the Lightning Twins' known jealousy. Along with their violent, electrical outbursts. He could already picture Issei, shard like many infamous anime characters. Laharl would like to see, if Issei Oppai-power can save him, from two jealous Twins, with lightning powers. Then he'd burst into laughter, making everyone look at him. Issei himself asked, "Laharl-senpai, what's soo funny?" After struggling to calm down, enough to talk. Laharl said, "Sorry. Sorry...I'd just imagine, Issei making a certain...Fire Sekirie react..." as he'd finished saying this, he'd burst out laughing again. Issei looked blue. Then the others, upon realizing what Laharl meant...they started rolling on the floor, laughing as well. Issei looked at his friends, all literally busting their guts laughing. And he started yelling at them, to "shut up" and "go fuck yourselves." over and over. Seems that talking a short rest, was a good idea.
