Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest

With only two Altars left, the Demon King\'s manifestation grew weaker, yet at the same time, the flames it conjured only became stronger. It was as if the Demon King was conjuring more flames to make up for his ever-weakening manifestation.

To make things worse, Elayne noticed that his body quickly started to shapeshift. Large tentacles made of shadows started engulfing the monsters that kept being endlessly summoned, fusing their flesh and souls into his body.

"Is he trying to create a new body out of the monsters?!" Elayne thought, gritting her teeth. "Stop it! I won\'t let you do as you please!"

Elayne\'s barrage of attacks reached the Demon King, her six giant swords unleashing a storm of lightning-fast attacks. At the same time, her three rotating crowns conjured their powerful multi-elemental magic.

A wave of freezing winds covered the manifestation, slowing it down. Thunder struck its entire body constantly, making its new flesh fall apart. Enormous spears made of wood fell down, piercing its body.

However, aside from these three basic elements, the other two elements she possessed manifested. Fire and water. Spiraling, swirling spears made of oceanic water constantly splashed over the demon, alongside chains of flames.

But even then, Elayne found out his regeneration was becoming too fast, and her spells were slowly becoming ineffective, as if his own growing body was becoming capable of resisting the elements the more they struck him down.

"Planta, stop using the elements separately, combine them!" The Great Spirit told her. "Also, I\'ll manifest myself! Let me take over one of your Avatars!"

"Me too! I also need to help somehow. I can conjure my magic more easily within a vessel!" Titania said.

"Okay then!" Elayne nodded, hearing the tips from the Great Spirit and also nodding at their request. She quickly transferred their powers and consciousness into two of her Avatars, as their appearances quickly changed, imitating their original bodies.

"Hahahaha! You\'re becoming weaker! Even as you destroy the Altars, you won\'t make it in time before I destroy everything, Yggdragon!" Laughed the Demon King. "I am destruction, I am wrath, I am envy, I am greed!"

"What are you talking about?!" Elayne roared. "Just who exactly are you?! Where do you come from?!" As she asked this, Elayne\'s jaws opened, her draconic heads released three breath attacks containing fire, light, water, ice, winds, and nature elements combined.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The damage of her dragon breath was strong, incredibly powerful, but not enough to shake him off completely. His wounds rapidly regenerating. As the demon king swung his giant blazing hands at her.

BAAAM!

Elayne used all six of her swords to parry the incoming blow, before releasing a barrage of powerful and rapid blows, piercing the demon king\'s entire body.

"What I am?!" However, even as he was almost completely shredded, his body came back, relentlessly. "I am the one and only, I am the all sins! I am everything! I am the one that our parents sealed and punished, only for being born! I am Erebus, but now I take upon a new Title. I am the Demon King.

This is my destiny; this is my fate! I will bring destruction to this world, Yggdragon! You died once, and you will die TWICE!"

"So the Demon King of the End is the true origin of all the other Demon Kings?!" Elayne thought. "But wait, that doesn\'t make sense! Then how were the others born? Were they fragments that fell off him? But wasn\'t he divided into seven parts?"

Something was off, and Elayne thought that either Erebus was lying, or that there was another nature to the Demon King she had yet to discover. The reason why there were different people born as him, from the monsters that were the first two, to the Demon King of miasma that appeared out of nowhere, to the Demon King of Death that used to be an ancient king.

From what she learned, she knew they had been reborn out of their seals, reformed anew. Their monstrous souls taking into new vessels. While the first two were reborn as monsters, the third was the strangest, as he had become his own self, as if he had unsealed his fossilized body and simply regained the control of it and rejuvenated it.

Yet the fourth was still the most mysterious! The Demon King of Death was reborn as a human, and from what she learned, it was through the betrayal he suffered and the death of his entire Kingdom that he ended awakening his powers as a Demon King of Death and raising everyone back from death.

But even then, he was slain by the Hero Sigurd and his sword Gram, the completed form. Yet despite being slain after that, he still revived, much like the other Demon Kings. She assumed this was due to the game-like system reviving them to create content, but there might be something else.

Especially because the Demon King of Death appeared in the underworld, how did he get there? Was that how Sigurd defeated him? Was that where he had to go? Or did the Demon King of Death die in the surface and somehow respawned there for his recent incoming resurrection?

There were many questions inside of Elayne\'s head, but little time to ever ask the monster in front of her. She knew the last Demon King originated from Hell and was the strongest. And now, she learned he thought of himself as the origin of them all, and was also somehow, the representation of all seven sins.

This might just be an illusion, a recreation of him through the Divine Dungeon, but she could tell, the Demon King of the End… He was shaping himself to become the greatest enemy she will ever fight, someone so powerful that.

At the end, as she suspected…

He killed the Gods.

All of them.

"What is your desire, what do you want to achieve?!" Elayne asked him once more, slicing through his ever-growing appendages.

"What else than to end it all? This is my purpose. I will kill my parents, eat them, and then use their power to destroy everything!" Laughed the Demon King. "I am the Bringer of the End!"

And this pretty much confirmed it.

Yet…

"If the Gods died, then who… Who are the Gods I\'ve been talking with this entire time?!" Elayne thought, her mind in shambles.
