The butlers of the 99th floor and meeting the Overlord!

We are on the 99th floor. As Sorenamu's said, 2 butlers are guarding the door. A man and a woman, both wearing all black with a mask on. They bow and says,

"Welcome to the 99th floor, we will test if you are worthy or not to meet our master. We won't kill you, but we will make sure that you're leaving the Tower barely alive."

After they are done talking, they immediately run towards us. I blocked their fist with Depth's Sword, and their arms were destroyed in an instant. They backed out and regenerate their arms. But then, they are screaming and transformed into one. A huge monster with 4 arms and black wings on its back, with a huge eye on each shoulder.

They say,

"Sorry for underestimating your power, now we are one. We are Legion, and we will end this now."

They are walking towards us and then disappeared. in a blink of an eye, before we can even react to see where it goes, all of us got pushed back and hit the wall. I'm surprised that even the body is huge, it has become faster than before. Zee and the others already stand up and smile, while Vivi and Kiel still struggling to even move their bodies. I ready my stance and charge in to fight Legion, but they are too fast for me. I got beaten so badly, my body is numb and trembling from exhaustion, I can't react to their movements and I can't handle the pain anymore, I can't even land a single hit. They're on a different level, I can do nothing. Edith says,

"Hoho, this is fun! Oy Legion... I'll be your opponent now, so get ready."

Legion bows to Edith and starts walking towards her. Edith just stood there and smiling, and suddenly Legion disappeared again. In an instant, Legion throw a punch at Edith, but she stopped its huge fist with just one hand and she says,

"Oh come on... Only this much? I'm disappointed."

Legion disappeared again and threw a lot of punches at Edith, but she dodged all of them. Then she grabbed its hand and threw Legion away and hit the wall. Edith walks towards Legion, and when Legion recovered, it disappeared again. Edith clicking her tongue and says,

"So annoying..."

Edith raise her right arm and says,

"I, Edith. As the leader of the Archangel Army, I summon thee... Michael!"

An angel showed up in front of Edith and bowing on his knee. An expressionless handsome or beautiful being, with bright yellow long hair and blue eyes, and bright white wings on his back. Wearing white and gold full plate armor, with a Halo on his head, while holding a golden hammer. The angel says,

"Your grace... My master, my one and only leader. What's your command."

Edith pat his shoulder and says,

"I told you, I hate that, stop saying that every time I summoned you. Next time you do that, I'll beat your dazzling face. But I'll let it slide this time. Ahh yeah, can you stop the time for a minute please?"

While they are in the middle of the conversation, the angel has been guarding Edith with his wings. Legion's attacks are like pebbles thrown at him. The angel replies,

"I'm sorry your grace... I'll remember it, and as your command. I'll stop the time."

The angel snaps his fingers, and everyone stops moving. The time moves very slowly. We can't move or speak, we can only move our eyes. Legion is frozen in the mid-air, and Edith walks towards Legion. She is pulling him down and smash Legion to the ground, then she punches Legion on the face. She says,

"Okay, that should be enough... Right, Michael?"

The angel says while still bowing on his knee,

"Yes, your grace."

Edith replies,

"Well, you can turn the time back to normal Michael, and leave."

The angel nodded and bow one more time. Before he left, he snaps his fingers, and immediately Legion throw up blood. Edith put her foot on Legion's head and says,

"Are we worthy to see your master? Legion?"

After Legion recovered, they split the body and transformed it back to its human form. They bow and says,

"Thank you for letting us live, and of course you all are worthy to meet our master. Come this way."

We go upstairs and meet the true ruler of the Underworld. We all are curious about who is the person that lives on top of the Tower, and what is he looks like. If the butlers are that strong, it means the master is way stronger than them, I'm not sure if the master can be defeated by Zee or the others easily.

We are on the 100th floor, and as I expected. It's a throne room, it's so huge with many pillars around the room and huge banners on the walls. The servants are standing on the sides, and the butlers are standing beside the throne.

One of the butlers says,

"Welcome challenger, you all successfully defeated the Tower of Demise. Let me introduce ourselves, my name is Adrid and beside me is Idrad. We are the butlers that serve our master until the end of time."

Adrid continues,

"This is our master. The Demon Empress."

The Demon Empress is sitting on the throne, crossing her legs and rest her head on her left hand. A shiny black full helmet and gold carvings on it, covering her face and we can only see her right purple eye glowing. The top of the helmet is shaped like a crown with jewels on it, and we can see her hair under the helmet. It's a dark silver color and yet it's so bright. A gorgeous yet scary black-colored full plate armor, with gold and crimson red colors carvings on it, that fits her body perfectly with a short red and gold skirt covering her thighs. A red and gold cape covering half of her front body. She's holding a black sword and rest it on her thighs. For some reason, I'm familiar with this aura. A person that is looking down at the others. The Empress stands up with the sword facing the ground and rest her hands on the sword's handle and says,

"You are the first who defeated the Tower, I will grant you one wish each. Name it."

Zee and the others shaking their heads and said they didn't want anything. They all are smiling, and I know who is this person is. She is Shive, I'm sure this is her true form. Edith says,

"I have one wish... I want to see my beloved little sister. Her name is...Cipher."

The Empress strut her way towards Edith. Suddenly six dark grey wings came out from her back and says,

"Wish granted."

The Empress hugs Edith so tightly. Even though I can't see her face, but I can tell she is smiling. Vivi and Kiel just realized that the Empress is Shive, they are screaming and run towards her and hug Shive as well. Shive removed her helmet and a beautiful face that we all miss. A silver-haired woman with pointy ears and her pitch-black left eye and purple right eye, smiling at us. Shive says,

"So, what wish do you want? Vivi, Kiel?"

Vivi says,

"I want to be like Miss Edith and Miss Secra."

Shive snaps her fingers and says,

"Wish granted."

Suddenly Vivi's body is glowing and massive lights appear in front of her and get inside her body. Vivi asks,

"What just happened? I feel something is different inside me."

Shive replies,

"A Guardian. She is now protecting you from any harm, and it will help you to become stronger. Her name is Gianna, call her and she will come out."

Vivi called Gianna and then a beautiful pale skin and white hair girl with transparent wings on her back flying in front of her. She looks exactly like Tessera, but a bit different. Then Gianna introduce herself,

"Nice to meet you! My name is Gianna, you can call me Gia. I'm a holy spirit but at the same time, I'm not. Vivi, I'm now your guardian. Let's work together!"

Vivi replies,

"Nice to meet you too, Miss Gia! But you look like someone we know."

Gianna is flying around Vivi, and then ask,

"Hmm? Who that might be?"

Vivi replies,

"Miss Tessera. She looks exactly like you, Miss Gia"

Gianna is surprised and flaps her wings faster. Before she can reply, Tessera came out from Secra's body and fly towards Gianna.

Tessera says,

"Sis! Long time no see!"

Gianna's eyes are watering and hugs Tessera. She replies,

"Sis! Where have you been all this time?!"

Tessera replies,

"I'm in here for few hundreds of years. At the Valley of Mist. Where have you been sis?"

Gianna replies,

"I was in the Abandoned World, then I met Cipher and she brought me to the Garden of Eden. I've been living there until now."

Tessera says,

"So are you going to live inside Vivi now?"

Gianna replies,

"Yeah, since Cipher told me to. I am also interested in Vivi because she is different from the others. She looks like Edith and Arches."

Tessera replies,

"Well, it's not just you. I am also interested in the other kid. This girl, her name is Kiel. Since you're Vivi's Guardian, I will also become Kiel's Guardian from now on."

Kiel's eyes are glimmering, and her mouth is wide open when she heard that. Shive asks Kiel,

"What is your wish, Kiel?"

Kiel immediately replies,

"WINGS! I WANT WINGS ON MY BACK!"

Everyone is laughing at her, and Shive replies,

"I'm sorry Kiel. I can't do that, and you can use the flying spell. Why do you need wings?"

Kiel is sulking, and then she replies,

"I don't know what I want, other than having wings on my back..."

Shive says,

"You can ask me later when you have something in mind."

Kiel nods and still sulking. Edith and Secra are comforting her.
