Chapter 1003: It's Now Or Never!
-----
RUMBLE!
The Demon King of the End started glitching, his body couldn't hold his humanoid shape anymore, melting away as his manifestation seemed to be growing weaker and weaker! Yet, through sheer power of will, and perhaps all the demonic power he could muster, he kept trying to grow larger, inflating himself like a monstrous, fleshy balloon.
Now over half of the monsters summoned were beginning to fuse with his ever-growing aberrant body, countless tentacles surging everywhere. Horns, jaws, eyes, and arms started popping out of his body, as he began pushing Elayne back with sheer physical might and overwhelming size.
"I won't let youuuu…! I won't let you get the last one! THIS WORLD SHALL END! I SHALL BRING ITS END!"
The tentacles of the Demon King spread out into the surroundings of the pit, attempting to grab the last altar for himself! Elayne panicked, summoning the Divine Dragon Guardians from her transformation's Divine Skill effect.
A huge rainbow portal opened, as these guardians of all colors surged from within, descending over the monstrous Demon King's body and trying to stop him. They started attempting to restrain his movements, each one being a hundred meters tall.
The rest of her Spirit Draconic Beasts attacked from the skies, bombarding him constantly. Elayne's Divine Beast Familiars were among them, as she told them to not risk their lives too much, letting them fight from afar for the moment.
Meanwhile, her four other Avatars were fighting too. The two possessed by the Great Spirit and Titania's Spiritual Projection were doing all they could to stop the Demon King. The Great Spirit conjured enormous fields of farming, where she harvested out giant vegetables and launched them at the monster, creating tremendous explosions despite the funny appearance of her magic.
As for Titania, she flew with her big, purple and pink wings, releasing winds of light that released her wing's scales, releasing a deadly poisonous curse that started to weaken the demon king's defenses. At the same time, she conjured buffing magic on everyone and created swords of pink light, launching a hundred each.
The other Avatars being controlled by Elayne took care of the Demon King's back; however they were also being slowly overwhelmed. The tentacles and limbs popping out of nowhere constantly was becoming increasingly more difficult to overcome.
And even more now, as all his limbs reached the last Altar, which was being relentlessly guarded by the last 40 cultists together, alongside armies of thousands of Demonic, Undead, and Miasmic Monsters.
Both from the skies and the earth, Elayne's entire party attacked them, yet they held off barely, enough for the Demon King to step towards them.
"No, stop him! Don't let him grab it!"
Elayne screamed as she quickly started to push forwards, activating more and more of her skills and spells, bombarding the Demon King with all the magic she could muster. All her allies behind her were also going all-out, constant and endless explosions bombarding the aberrant manifestation.
She tried to fly towards the mass of limbs and tentacles attempting to grab the altar, but she was being constantly stopped by more and more of those tentacles. As long as the last altar was destroyed, this nightmare would finally end!
However, no matter what, the cultists and the Demon King were not giving up!
"We will bring an end to this world, no matter what!!!"
"We will avenge Lord Erebus!!!"
"He shall make the Gods pay back!!!"
"Take my life, my lord! Take it all!!!"
The cultists screamed in unison as the magic they've been building out of their comrades' blood and flesh activated. A large pentagram opened up, engulfing them and the altar into a black hole that suddenly opened a portal, a gate, above the Demon King's maws.
And the Demon King opened his jaws, and ate them all, everything.
"Shit…"
Elayne's eyes widened in shock as the Demon King's entire body began to overflow with power. After having devoured thousands of monsters and the last cultists, alongside the very last altar, something started to happen!
"GRUAHAHAHA!"
His form became more defined, as he was slowly trying to attempt to become "truer" to his appearance within Hell! Red skin covered his humanoid form, black scales wrapped his skin like armor, a giant reptilian head with six crimson eyes and eight black horns, nine long tails, eight muscular arms.
This was perhaps only a partial manifestation of him, but for the first time, everyone saw it, a part, an aspect, of the Demon King of the End! The bastard that killed and ate the Gods and destroyed Arcadia.
His body began to grow larger and larger, a monstrous being of almost a kilometer of height started to slowly form, his giant arms attempting to crawl out of the pit!
An endless sea of demonic flames washed it all, yet Elayne's {Immunity} Status made her Domain relentlessly fight back, taking no damage whatsoever, creating a bizarre sight where a pristine forest was being constantly bathed by the infernal flames of hell!
However, this buff was only temporary, Elayne only had roughly 6 more minutes before her transformation were to end, and so all her divine skills would also disappear with it.
"You've gotta be fucking kidding me!" Rita screamed. "Fuck, fuck, FUCK! Okay, take it all, take fucking everything out of me, bastard!"
Suddenly, Rita flew into the skies as she spent all her Malice Essence spent, activating her strongest Spell, further boosted by the power of her Divine Fusion Skill that allowed her body to transform even more into a half dark dragon elf, the {Abyssal Void Dark Dragonborn Elf Embodiment} Skill.
"{Abyssal Void Darkness Magic}: {Nether Gates Of The Void}!"
RUMBLE!
Suddenly, everyone watched in disbelief as the skies above the Demon King trembled, a crack in space opened, as Rita spent everything she had, even her health points were going down.
And from within the portal, an enormous gate appeared, opening up rapidly, and revealing an endless, spiraling black void inside.
And from within, countless red eyes opened, and countless black tentacles surged, rushing down towards the Demon King!
"Uugh?! What the…?!"
The Demon King of the End was stopped by Rita manifesting a monstrosity out of nowhere, and everyone was shocked!
"What are you sitting and looking at?! Hurry and deal with it, QUICKLY!"
Rita gritted her teeth.
"On it!"
Elayne and her party roared in unison, the entire group rushing towards the final boss.
It was now or never!
