Just what in the world is going on?! What is Elfina trying to do now?! If everything is really like I think it is, that damn, motherfucking Hel is here and is possessing Elfina from all things! She must also be the origin of Elfina's Undead Summoning powers.
How come the Genie didn't felt this was weird?! Does he just not care as long as they're into killing us? And what's up with the Demon King? Is he okay with utter destruction anyways? Does he even care?
Agh, well, there's no point in wondering these things, they will simply not go answered unless we finally confront Elfina and that bitch of Hel that's possesing her body.
After seeing the utter ridiculousness of what was happening, I quickly regrouped with all of my allies in a big party. The Undead were now completely gone, so there wasn't much to worry regarding Goldsand anymore.
Nonetheless, we had a bigger problem to tackle now. Not only we need to stop Elfina from doing whatever she's trying to do, but we also need to blast that tower down, close the crack, and exorcise the Supreme Goddess of Death from Elfina's body.
"I see, so that's what's happening…" Luminous nodded. We spent a minute explaining everything to my allies as we flew as fast as possible towards the Netherworld Tower. "It suppose this is why I felt this strange pain in my very soul. As the god of this world, I've grown connected even more with it, perhaps even my soul and life depends on this world's health. We need to stop that thing before it completely swallows Rune Terra."
"Yeah, Kireina, you said that the one possessing Elfina is a Supreme Deity, right? The [Lady Veiled on Death], or something?" Asked Frank.
"Yeah! So you also got her messages, right? It seems the Soul Book tells us whenever a Deity within the Cosmos is targeting us." I said while sighing. "Here, have these as well."
We quickly gave Frank all his Cosmic Stones we got from the other Necrotic Death Overlords, as he immediately turned them into Cosmic Elixirs and drank them. His power began overflowing even more, as he regained more of his abilities.
"Even without my Galaxy Realm, with this much power, I should at least have roughly a fourth of my original strength. If we can get the large one that Elfina's holding, I could get a fifth." Said Frank, Cosmic Energy was flowing all around his body. Quite honestly, I was a bit jealous of that power. But now that I was developing my own Cosmic Energy thanks to his intervention, even when I never really absorbed one of his cosmic stones, I feel slightly grateful too.
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ "That should be good enough…" Luminous sighed.
"Lady Kireina! Do you know how strong this Hel woman is? The one you were talking about that possessed your Summoner?" Brunhild wondered.
"She's the primary reason I died back in Genesis. Well, almost. I had gone to eliminate her to her own Realm, but I ended having to take one for the whole team, and ended exploding so hard I turned to nothing." I laughed a bit. "But now that I've regained a nice portion of my powers, plus a lot of extra power from the Soul Book, she's probably really afraid of what I am capable. And she hasn't even seen half of it yet."
"Thanks to White here we were healed just in time." Sighed Ariant in relief. "Thank you for being so considerate there, Kireina-sama!"
"Yeah, we were almost dead, that damn Necrotic Death Overlord was sure overpowered!" Said Eriant. "His damn venom… it almost killed us."
"But we somehow won, Brunhild did it, she smashed him into bits!" Said Ariant.
"Really? Seems like you've awakened some sort of power." I said while smiling back at the giant girl.
"M-Me? But I don't really remember awakening anything… Yet, inside f my body, I can feel something flowing… Must be also the reason behind all these multi-colored tattoos resembling ancient runes over my body." She sighed.
"Hmm, I can certainly feel some sort of mythical Divine Power flowing through you now." I wondered. "Have you not received any Divine Protection or something as of late?"
"Eh? Me? Not really, I feel the same as always." Brunhild said. "Well, more stronger than before… like physically stronger. It feels like that curse I had in my body, which made it weaker, is now gone."
Interesting. I really wonder what's up with her. Could the Giants living in the God's Bone Mountains have a more mysterious background than what one can see in the surface? They're the only Giants in the entire world of Rune Terra too, and have always lived in the Giant God's Bone Mountains… I do wonder.
Now that I remember, the Gods of this world were depicted as not as Luminous, they were seen as "Titans" and although what they might have looked like depends heavily in the interpretation, some were giant animals and others very humanoid-like.
Could… the Giants be the descendants of the Titan Gods? The True Gods of this world that perished here for mysterious reasons? It could even explain why Brunhild's magic is so unique, it feels really similar to the power of [Creation] that high ranked Gods and entities above possess.
Well, it is all just my own speculation for now.
"That's good then, perhaps another intense fight might finally awaken that power once more." I said with a smile. "Make sure to give your all, Brunhild! You're our biggest asset aside from the lizard."
"Don't call me lizard!" Luminous angrily barked.
As we reached the tower, I looked at the notifications I got before reaching the top of it and finally confronting Elfina and Hel.

"Hel! Show yourself!" I confronted Hel, as we saw Elfina covered in black armor and sitting over a throne of bones and phantasmal essence.
Her shadows slowly started to distort, forming into the appearance of a pale young girl with long white hair and sharp red eyes.
"Kireina! You're finally here…! I've been DYING to see you!"
"With the same terrible sense of humor as usual, huh?"
