(A Few Minutes Ago)

Darkness enveloped them when Monika cried, telling everyone to escape. Elena's shadows flickered as three skeletons emerged from within them, wrapped on wooden armors, one holding a small sphere which generated a wall of darkness protecting Elena and her friends from the explosion and the impact of the Dungeon being created.

"Shit! The wave of Mana is coming! Everyone's going to get sucked inside of that gate!"

"We can't save everyone! Protect the young lady and her friends!"

"Huh?! Everyone's unconscious!"

The skeletons noticed that seconds before the dungeon gate was created, every student fell unconscious, one of them swiftly realized the reason.

"It must be the Mana Shock! Their bodies ended taking on the Mana that came out, forcing their bodies to adapt!"

"Shit, are some of them turning into zombies?!"

"Grab the young lady and her friends! Quickly! Shadow Orb!"

Using the Shadow Orb given to them by Elayne, the skeletons swiftly hugged Elena and her friends, expanding their roots and branches around them, while a wave of shadows further reinforced the defenses.

There was no time to escape now, even if they jumped off the window, they would get sucked into the dungeon's gate midway through anyways!

TRUUUUUUMMM…!

"It's coming!"

"Brace yourselves!"

"Uuaarrgh!"

Everything turned black, as the three skeletons were instantly transferred into the depths of a Dungeon. When they finally felt like moving, they realized the three girls were safe, though something was stuck in the back of their heads, resembling a…

"A pillow? What is this?!"

"It doesn't get out!"

"Some sort of curse?! Ugh, I don't know!"

The trio quickly got up while carrying the girls, trying to find a door leading outside of this labyrinthian place, only to be chased by strange creatures at every corner.

"We can't find the entrance!"

"At most we need to hold on until our boss comes back!"

"Agh! Dammit!"

The three skeletons ended being cornered by the monsters, leaving the three girls behind them as all three braved against an army of powerful creatures emerging from the Dungeon.

"Boss, please, come quickly!"

"Ugh… We can't hold back much longer!"

"These monsters are way too strong!"

In front of Elayne, a powerful new Death General had emerged, protecting the Gate leading inside the Dungeon that was created, a tall, powerful skeleton knight wearing black armor and wielding a gigantic black sword.

His name was Ernest and his loyalty towards the Demon King of Death, Thanatos, knew no bounds. With his might, he singlehandedly held off Elayne from trespassing the domain that Dorothea had told him to not allow anybody to enter.

"Ungh…" Elayne groaned, slowly standing back up, her stomach was bleeding as a huge wound was left behind.

She felt as if her insides were about to burst, she tightly held her stomach with her hands, as her entire body emanated large quantities of Mana. Her flesh turned into wood and her blood into sap, through the power of Self-Regeneration within her physique coupled with her Magic Spells, she healed a deadly wound that would had killed any normal person in seconds.

The hole left behind quickly regenerated, growing more wood anew, and restoring Elayne's energy as she looked at Ernest with eyes filled with a deadly, fiery conviction.

"Not bad for a measly human." Ernest laughed. "To think that the Avatar of Yggdrasil turned out to be a normal woman… This is certainly not something honorable to do. I know you can't forgive me, but I have to apologize. Now, leave. Unlike my peers, I do not enjoy taking the lives of innocents. I only do all of this for my lord, whose purposes go beyond my measly judgement."

"You talk like you feel sorry, but around you there's the bodies of many innocents, covered on that weird crystal… Just what are you doing with the kids?! Where's my daughter?! WHERE'S ELENA?!" Elayne roared furiously, her entire body exuding even more power as roots wrapped around her, covered on golden scales.

A long tail grew on her back and even wings made of wood and leaves emerged above her shoulders. Her head was covered by a dragon head-shaped helmet.

"The humans of this world possess a powerful soul; my lord desires their souls and energy. He'll harvest them in the form of Demonite, a unique crystal that he can use to create equipment for his army." Said Ernest. "It is… a necessary sacrifice so we can go against our fate. We cannot waste our new chance. My lord lost everything once… He cannot bear to lose everything again."

"You think that talking like a poor little knight will change my mind, or even make me feel any empathy for you?" Elayne said, her face showing clear hatred. "If you get on my way… Then I won't have any mercy."

"I suppose we cannot resolve things by talking." Ernest sighed. "I can understand your pain, but my lord's-"

"I don't give a fuck about your LORD!" Elayne roared, rushing towards Ernest and swinging her weapon, now fused with the Spirits of Fire, Light, and Earth and growing into the shape of a sword, overflowing with golden, holy flames.

CLAAAAASSSH!

The impact of her sword unleashed a wave of golden flames, covering Ernest's entire body, as he was forced to step back and then spin with his huge body, unleashing a devastating slash of pure darkness with his huge, black sword.

"[Death Knight Blade Arts]: [Nether's Slash]!"

SLAAAASH!

"NGH!" Elayne gritted her teeth as she put her shield in front of her, resisting the tremendous impact, her much lighter body was once more thrown away, as she fell down the school's stairs.

BAAAAAAMM…!

"I said it already, I cannot let you pass!" Ernest roared, his empty eye sockets glowing with bright blue light.

"[Spiritual Battle Aura]! [Spiritual Muscle Enhancement]!"

Elayne conjured her two newest Spells, enhancing her entire body's muscles tremendously as she let Spiritual Energy flow across her body. At the same time as a powerful Spiritual Battle Aura covered her still-regenerating body.

"And for my daughter, I will never give up!" She roared, rushing towards the Undead Knight once more, and clashing against his sword with her own.

CLAAAAASH!
