FLAAAAASH!
Celeste flew across the dungeon at fast speed. Sitting above her Demonic Dark Spear. Her Curse and Darkness Magic weakened her foes while her spear finished them off. Although she was weaker than Sylphy, Aquarina, and Zack, she was still strong enough to do this much after having grown so strong thanks to her friends' help.
"Where is everyone?! I know Sylphy, Aquarina, and Zack should be fine, those guys are monsters but… Mist, Celica! And Luck too, I guess?" She sighed. "This damn spider woman…" She glanced into the skies. "Oi Arachne! Are you seeing me?!"
No response. It has already been a couple of minutes since her voice couldn't be heard anymore. After sending around seventy monsters to kill Celeste, Arachne completely stopped giving her any attention.
"This bitch is really looking down on me…" She sighed. "But I guess… It isn't as if I don't deserve such a treatment, hahaha…"
Even now, Celeste is being slightly tormented by her past. Even after all the awful things she did, she was forgiven by everyone. Although she pretended to be alright, deep down, she still felt very guilty.
She always wanted to help as much as she could, even if it meant risking her life. It was the least she could do for almost killing Sylphy's mother, and through her organization, having taken so many innocent people's lives.
And all of these events regarding Arachne reminded her of her plans in Eastgrain, the awful things she did, and the powers this "Gray" guy gave to her temporarily through the Dimensional Jewels.
The ability to create Dungeon Breaks.
Back then, she felt invincible, she thought that her revenge against her father was within her grasp without a doubt… She was merciless, she thought of disposing of innocent civilians, anything to accomplish her goal.
But without realizing it, she became corrupted, and ended becoming almost as worse as the man that had brought her so much suffering…
Sylphy beat her down until she understood, until she found herself hopeless. She had given away her most precious thing, her soul, to those Evil Gods that manipulated her to do all of this.
That tried to turn her into an utter monster to unleash their own hatred and plans into the mortal world… And almost lost her soul, without even having the chance to have an afterlife.
Yet Sylphy once more saved her even then, somehow… With her incredible strength and powers. And now, not only she had forgiven her, but she also even helped her awaken her Talents.
The very Talents she was using now to completely crush her enemies…
"Arachne… If she's like me, she must have gone through horrendous things." She sighed. "I can't help but see myself within her, even when I've never meet her. Yet… It feels like she's an even worse version of myself, someone that never found a Sylphy to help her, and ended sinking deeper into an abyss. She has gone so deep that it is probably impossible for her to ever return now…"
Celeste's swift and precise movements were almost admirable. Her spear pierced the heads of monsters, her abyssal darkness magic restricted them with chains of curses, weakening them too, all while she flew around with wings made of shadows in the shape of bat wings.
"She doesn't know that she's merely a puppet of the Evil God controlling her, the one that gave her all these powers…" Celeste sighed, glancing into the ceiling. "Arachne, if you continue doing this… You'll soon realize you were merely the puppet, and not the master."
…
"[Divine Claw Arts]: [One Hundred Lightning Slashes]! RAAAAAHHH!!!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH SLAAASH!
Luck's attack slashed through the legs of the many insects surrounding him. The giant bugs were incapacitated one after another, falling into the floor.
His entire body was overflowing with the might of the Divine Beast Spirit of Light, the Golden Tiger, his appearance having changed greatly through the transformation.
"Lara… WHERE'S LARA?!"
Arachne's plans were going awry, the spiders she sent to him to restrain him and capture him were not working properly at all… No, in fact, he was simply too strong.
She had been told he was much weaker by her servant, but now? It was as if he had become much, much stronger! It was a shift in power of tremendous quality.
"Hahhh… HAHHH… LARAAAAAAAA!!!"
With a loud, beastly roar, Luck roared to the heavens, seeking his beloved friend, Lara, the light of his world, the sun of his sky, the one that filled his empty heart.
He had worked so hard only to find himself in the depths of a dark dungeon, fighting against giant bugs endlessly… All of his efforts felt like they were for nothing!
It felt as if fate simply didn't wanted him to reunite with her!
"LARAAAAAA!!!"
A powerful roar akin to that of a divine beast surged from his aura once more, the shockwave of light and electricity hitting all the surrounding bugs, paralyzing them!
TRUUUUUMMMMM…!
"RAAAAH!"
Mercilessly and monstrously, he started attacking them more and more, tearing apart their bodies and devouring the magic crystals, absorbing their Mana, this was a power usually only monsters possessed.
However, the Beast Hero in their Divine Beast Form were capable of doing the same as monsters, absorbing Mana from devouring Magic Crystals, this way, they were able to keep themselves fighting much longer than most heroes, as they would continue to regenerate as they defeated and extracted more enemies.
"There… A Gate! LARAAA!"
Luck roared, crazed, as he started hitting the gate in front of him with all his divine beast might!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAAASSSH!
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The entire dungeon started trembling a bit before his might, however, no matter how hard he tried, the dungeon gate would simply not open.
"No… Why…?! WHY?! ARACHNEEEEEE!!!"
"Oh my, such an annoying young man… Can't you see that my lady is busy dealing with the heroes?"
Suddenly, a very familiar voice echoed behind Luck. The moment he glanced back at her, his eyes grew red in anger…
"YOU!"
It was her, the one that took Lara away from her.
"You've grown so strong since the last time we meet, little wolf…"
"Give… Lara… BACK!!!"
CRAAAAASSSH!
