Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest
Chapter 605 Thanatos' Arm
-----
FLUOOOOSH!
The huge portal that opened within the Realm of the Underworld quickly closed, as the huge Demon King of Death was quickly thrown back into the Realm of the Dead, with his skull half broken, and the phantasmal core keeping his soul within inside his skull having gained several cracks.
BAAAAAAMMMM…!
His huge body fell over the Underworld, the many Undead and Generals that served him panicked, screaming, and running to his side.
"My King!"
"What has happened?!"
"Have you failed?!"
"That damn Yggdrasil!"
The Demon King was quickly surrounded by his retainers, his family. And his many soldiers. With a pained groan, he slowly sat down and touched his skull, which was falling apart.
"Uuuurggh… M-My Soul Core…!" He muttered, feeling the agony of his crystalized soul having been damaged to this extent. "Damn that Yggdrasil…"
"My Lord! Your skull is…!"
"How horrendous! Call the lesser undead! Become our lord's parts! Repair him!"
His retainers quickly brought countless skeletons that started slowly merging with the Demon King's body, their souls mixing with his own, slowly trying to repair his many wounds.
"My Lord, what happened there?!" Suddenly, the voice of someone dear to him spoke at his side, although she wasn't there anymore, and was instead on Earth.
"Just when Fafnir valiantly gave out his soul to bring me there and end her… That woman evolved… She became even stronger! That damn tree!" Thanatos roared. "And my arm… No, this is good, actually."
"Good?" Wondered another retainer.
"We need to take revenge! But the gates to the surface are still closed…" Sighed another.
"My lord, what are you planning?" Asked another.
"Let us help you!" Said a fourth.
"Calm down, my retainers. What I did was on my own accord. Your job will come later on." Thanatos spoke. "For now, I do have a great idea… That damn Yggdrasil, if I can't kill her, then I'll make sure to kill everyone she couldn't protect!"
His entire body glowed with nether and divine power, combining together into a monstrous force that was directed to the surface world, using a "catalyzer" of his own power to manifest his might once more.
"I'll make sure to crush you, the hopes of the living… All of the world of Arcadia shall one day fall to my might. I won't let… the tragedies of my past repeat themselves. This time…" He glanced at his many retainers, his dear family. "I will make sure that our Kingdom doesn't fall to the hands of the wicked! I will protect it! Fafnir, Phantasmos, Gustaf, my brave friends, your sacrifices will not be wasted!"
FLAAAAAASSSH!!!
A dark power flew out of the Underworld, reaching the world of the living…

(Elayne's POV)
"Phew… D-Did we do it?" I wondered, looking around.
The battle was intense, and even after evolving, I didn't thought I could be capable of pushing him back. If it wasn't for Gram and those fragments of Titania's sword fusing with the spirit I created temporarily, things might have ended much different.
The four Dragon Spirits appeared around me, seemingly rather tired, as they looked like they were more transparent than before. Are they going to disappear or something?!
"Hahh… My soul feels exhausted. Being a spirit is not all that good." Sighed the Cave Drake.
"For now, we must rest." Said the Blue Dragon King. "Yggdragon, the Demon King of Death has only been fend off, but his might and resentment are near endless, he will come back. We must prepare for such a moment."
"However, I am so tired…" Sighed the Red Dragon Queen.
All four of them flew into my Dragon Heart, the big golden crystal in my chest, and seemingly stayed there, resting…
"O-Okay then… I guess we can talk about it later- Wait!" I quickly glanced back into my friends. "Everyone! Are you alright?!" I ran on my dragon form, making the entire mountain tremble.
"Mark! Rita! Lily! Jenny! Everyone!" I cried, as I noticed everybody panicking when I moved towards them. They seemed fine though, but why were they screaming?
"W-Wait, Elayne! Behind you!!!" Cried Rita.
"Eh?" I glanced behind me, as I noticed a huge, over forty meters long skeleton arm covered on Nether, tentacles, and eyes quickly attacking me!
"DO YOU THINK THIS IS OVER, YGGDRASIL?!"
CRAAAAAASSSH!
My body was lunged down into the floor by the huge skeletal arm, that slowly started to transform and become a huge centipede-like abomination. The attack really hurt too, my body wasn't regenerating as fast as before, and the wound was quickly infected with nether.
Urgh, it hurts like hell too!
"RAAAAH!" I roared with fury, opening my jaws, and unleashing a dragon breath almost automatically, a powerful explosion of golden flames hit the huge centipede!
BOOOOOOMMMMM…!
"UURGGH…! GRAAARGH!"
However, the centipede quickly shapeshifted around the wounds and suddenly recovered quickly, using the Nether it had already absorbed! My body felt heavier with each passing second, I just couldn't fight any more in this state!
"While you're weakened, I'll kill you YGGDRASIL!!! YOUR SOUL SHALL BE MY DINNER!!!"
The giant skeletal arm roared furiously, attacking me with its huge claws!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
"AAARGGH…!"
My barriers instantly shattered, and I was unable to spread my Terrain because the Nether constantly stopped me. He knew of my abilities and constantly worked to stop them!
| "NOW, ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS SHALL WATCH AS YOU'RE MASSACRED!!!"
The skeletal hand shapeshifted into a huge spear-like form, rushing down towards my chest, attempting to shatter my dragon heart!
I desperately lifted my arms and spread more and more nature, trying to defend myself from the impact, I was too slow and heavy to evade that!
CRAAAAAAASSSSHH!!!
I closed my eyes instinctively, expecting the worst… However, no attack reached me. In fact, it never hit me. And when I opened my eyes, I saw a huge figure in front of me, made of wood and orange-red flames.
It had the shape of a gigantic phoenix, with dragon-like features as well, and a beautiful, protective aura…
"ENOUGH!" Roared the phoenix. "I won't let you hut her anymore… I WON'T!"
It was Mark's voice!
Did he evolve too?!
