"GRAAAH!"
A D Rank Skeleton Chira roared, rushing towards a young-looking Dhampir girl, whose body exuded a powerful Blood Aura that swiftly shaped into a gigantic crimson wolf.
"Tsk!"
"ROAR!"
The crimson wolf roared at the sa ti as the girl leaped into midair, evading the hue Skeleton Chira's charge, swinging its huge red claws, and crushing the Chira's head and torso into smithereens.
CRAAASH!
"Phew, this is like the tenth already! How many of these things are coming out of that Gate?!" Rose cried, glancing as her friend, Albert, fought against a dozen Skeleton Warriors.
"No clue!" Albert sighed, using his bare fists, overflowing with a Demonic Aura, to crush the skeletons skulls in a barrage of punching attacks.
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
"I wish that damn Josuke wouldn't had gone back to Japan just yesterday! Who would had thought a Gate would appear outside this city the next day?!" Albert complained, as he gave out a powerful kick, which released a strong red shockwave that blew away a dozen zombies.
BAAAAAM…!
"You don't say! And just as we're busy here, another Gate appeared in one of the high schools of this city?!" Rose cried, swinging her two long black nails, coated on her Blood Aura, as two powerful crimson slashes devastated another Bone Chira and a dozen Bone Beasts following it.
CLAAASH! CLAAASH!
"I sure hope that's not where her daughter goes though…" Albert seed concerned about Elayne.
"I can't even call her, we're too busy now! That Gate, you said nobody can enter it, right?" Rose asked one of the soldiers at her side, as she was crushing a skull with her foot.
"Y-Yes! We've tried accessing it but it has so sort of barrier, it was specifically created to simply pour out Undead! We believe it might… be connected to the "main gate" in the city! We've already dispatched so people there!"
"Actually we got a report just now that four unidentified masked hunters beat down all the Undead coming from it and then a hue skeleton! The last ti they were seen, they entered the school again, have they gone into the Gate?!"
The soldiers seed confused and concerned about what was happening. Most of the mbers here were SWORD's superhuman corps, although Rose and Albert were the strongest of the bunch, the rest had to rely on special weapons and cooperation while these two Solo'd most monsters with their bare fists.
"Must be them." Albert said, gritting his teeth as he unleashed several Demonic Fireballs against a group of skeleton soldiers, blasting them into ashes.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Yeah, but there's a fourth now?! Ah, it must be that other friend they've got." Rose said, swinging her claws as she slashed apart several skeletons while charging in, her Crimson Wolf swiftly jumped off her aura and attacked a Bone Giant, making it crumble apart.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CRAAASH!
"If it's them then, probably it's her daughter…" Albert said. "Well, we can't go there while we're protecting the city. We'll have to leave this to them again!"
"Dammit!" Rose felt frustrated but couldn't help but agree with her companion. "Please, you guys… be safe!"
Rose and Albert alongside a group of over twenty SWORD corps continued fighting the incoming army of Undead, while several other soldiers were deploying a magic barrier around, so the Undead wouldn't escape the area.
Josuke was not there to give them his much-needed support, as he had to urgently move back to Japan, his country of origin due to a personal family issue. At the end, they all had their hands full with this situation, and ultimately, had to leave the fate of that Gate to Elayne and her friends…

"Laplace… You useless puppet."
A young girl with pale white skin and long, dark blue hair extending to her hips sat down over a huge throne made of cushions and plushies.
Her red eyes seed irritated as she sensed that her "puppet" Laplace, the Spirit of Dreams and Nightmares that she had created thanks to Thanatos' powers, was dead.
"How can you die against those four?! You fool…" She sighed. "You let them kill you so easily! However, they have already used their power. At the very least, you managed to push them very far. They must have exhausted even a tiny bit…"
She smiled, glancing at a huge projection of the four people that had infiltrated her Dungeon. Elayne, Mark, Rita, and Lily were flying across the corridors above a huge Magical Beast Bird overflowing with a Wind Elental Magic Aura.
"At the end, I simply cannot rely on anybody! Laplace and Ernest are gone, and I am alone…" She sighed. "Fufu, but this Dream Dungeon… It still belongs to , and I am its true master. As long as this Dungeon exists, that Gate I opened far away will never close! I owe you a lot for this, Phantasmos, without the seeds you've planted, creating Dungeons would had never been as easy for us now." The girl laughed, as she glanced at the four people, and then, at the many girls trapped inside the Dungeon.
Beneath their heads there were pink cushions, bringing them to a land of sweet dreams, unlike the dreams where Elayne and her friends were, which was made to kill them.
"Don't worry, my dear Monica." The girl giggled, holding a sleeping girl in her arms. "As long as I am here, your eternal world of dreams will never end. And slowly, your life force will beco mine, and so your dreams, your delicious dreams~ Once it is finally done, I'll have enough power to even cover this entire city with dreams, everybody will have sweet dreams, and we'll live together in a world of happiness, of fulfillnt… forever and ever."
She waved her delicate hands, as dozens of puppet knights materialized, marching towards the intruders, while her red eyes glowed brightly, and a mischievous smile erged on her flawless face.
"Yggdrasil… Don't think you can escape my land of dreams again…" She squinted her eyes. "I'll make sure to make you suffer for what you've done to my lord…"
