"Don't worry, my creator and master cares more about you two being alive then having these two captured."
Teare: H-Hey! Let me go you muscled freak!
Terra: Hmmm.
Terra lifted Teare in the air and slammed her into the ground before stomping on her stomach, making her scream in pain.
Footman quickly turned into a ball and rushed at Terra, only to be hit by a massive Warhammer that flew out of nowhere. Said hammer instantly went to Terra.
Footman's mind: What... What the hell is this guy!? He's definitely way stronger then the other two combined!
Teare quickly threw some smoke bombs at Terra's face which temporarily blinded him, allowing her to escape. It didn't last long, as he quickly recovered and charged at them.
They both responded by simultaneously firing two large pink blast at him, what he easily swatted away before realizing they were aiming for Geld and Phobio.
Terra quickly turned around and threw his hammer at the attack causing it to explode. After the smoke, Terra looked to see that both the clowns were gone.
Terra: Grrr!!!
Geld: They bested us... I did gain more power, but I guess there's always someone stronger.
Phobio: Yeah, if you both weren't here... I'd probably be dead. Sorry for holding you both back...
"Don't blame yourself, If I had hadn't been cautious and joined in sooner... we might have been able to catch them. Sorry for nearly getting you both killed."
Geld: You did no such thing. They may have escaped, but we're still alive. So long as we have a next time, there's no problem.
Phobio: Yeah... you're right!
"I don't plan on holding back next time."
Geld sent a message to Benimaru about the clowns, and Benimaru explained that thanks to our efforts Both Rimuru and Jasper have the evidence they need to expose Clayman's actions to the world.
Geld: I had hope to settle the score on the land where it all started. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be... I won't lose again!
Then both him and Phobio fell on their backs, while Terra just sat next to them.
Geld: Still though, I am exhausted!
Phobio: Me too...
They both heard the sound of movements and saw Terra take out two High potions while giving them a cheeky smile.
Phobio: Starting to think you actually wanted us to get our asses kicked...
This made them all laugh.
Tempest
While the others were finishing off with Clayman, the rest of us were making preparations to attend Walpurgis.
Shion: Lord Rimuru! You look wonderful!
Ranga: Such a dignified look!
Rimuru: You really think so?
Shuna: You look fantastic, Jasper!
Souka: It suits you perfectly.
Lumen: The look radiates the presence of an Emperor.
Nox: No other kind of suit would do!
Jasper: I appreciate it.
Shion: Ms. Souka, Princess Shuna. You're both looking lovely as well.
Shuna was wearing a Scarlet Red and White uniform that looked like a priest, while Souka was wearing an armored covered cloth uniform that reminded me of the famous Ninja called Hattori Hanzo.
Shuna: Thank you. But, I should probably get going.
Shion: Princess Shuna! Go beat the stuffing out of Clayman's minions!
Ranga: Do it for us!
Lumen: Please, deliver divine punishment on them.
Nox: She is among the few that are worthy of carrying out such an important task!
I walked over and gave a peck on the lips.
Jasper: Be safe, alright?
Shuna: Of course, and you with Lord Rimuru as well.
With that, Shuna teleported herself along with Hakuro and Souei away.
The puppet nation of Jistav
The three of them arrived at a foggy marshlands and began walking through it.
Hakuro: Where's Clayman's castle? This fog is much more then it appears, it's even blocking my magic detection.
Souei: Agreed. The enemy is clearly using the fog to obtain information.
As they continued their trek, Shuna stopped and realized something.
Shuna: It would appear we just walked into a trap...
Hakuro: You don't say...
Souei: Strange... I don't sensing any ambush.
They all heard walking and the sounds of groaning, and looked back to see an army of the undead walking towards them. The fog cleared a bit to reveal they were completely surrounded on all sides by the legion of the damned.
Hakuro: There's so many of them. How could they possible hide so we couldn't sense their presence?
Shuna: ...It wasn't the enemies intention to hide, it was their intention to lure us to them... Into the center of their army.
Souei: With Magic detection being unusable, we don't know how many their are... But, if shear numbers are they're only advantage.
Suddenly, a powerful undead appeared before them.
Shuna: His magical power is quite immense.
Hakuro: That can only mean one thing...
Souei: He's one of the five finger serving under Demon Lord Clayman.
Shuna: Adalmann, the Index finger.
Adalmann: Correct, I'm known as Adalmann the Wight King who commands a multitude of undead. I'm a servant of Demon Lord Clayman who has been ordered to protect this land. There's no escape, give up you're lives quietly.
Shuna: We're fully surrounded and I can no longer use spatial movement. The only way out of here, is to defeat Adalmann.
Hakuro: Let's end it quickly.
Souei: Fortunately, my attacks can kill even the undead.
Hakuro attempted to slash at him, but was stopped by a Death Knight.
Hakuro: Impressive! Even as a rotting corpse, you've maintained your instincts as a swordsman.
As they're duel went on, Souei tried to attack Adalmann from behind. Only to be forced to dodge a swipe by an undead Dragon.
Souei: It can't be! A Dragon Zombie!?
Shuna: No, it's nothing that weak! It's the strongest of all undead monsters, a death Dragon!
Souei: Good, I won't hold back.
He quickly wrapped it in {Arcane Thread} and sliced it into many pieces, but it managed to repair itself.
Souei concluded that he needed to destroy that Dragons soul, but Shuna stopped him and revealed that the souls of the undead here are inside of Adalmann.
Shuna: Focus on stopping that Dragon, while I defeat Adalmann.
Souei: It's too dangerous.
Shuna gave Souei a cold look.
Shuna: Look at me Souei... I'm very angry.
Souei's mind: ...Indeed, ever since the attack on the village and encountering Prince Jasper and Lord Rimuru. Princess Shuna is someone who no longer needs our protection. Especially after becoming Prince Jasper's wife, she's become more powerful and confident then before.
Souei: Best of luck Princess Shuna.
Shuna: Same to you, I'll let you handle the Dragon slaying.
She began to walk over to Adalmann.
Shuna: The other-worlders behavior... the invasion by Falmuth... and Clayman, the one behind it all. We did not come to this land for some pleasant excursion
Adalmann: Oh? What do you intend to do little lady, without you're personal guard?
Skeletons began to swarm the unfazed Shuna
Shuna: I do not need you're concern, {Alignment Field}.
The skill blew away all the undead surrounding them and formed a barrier around the two.
Shuna: No one can interrupt us. Once I defeat you, I can destroy the defense mechanism centered around you that covers this area, yes?
Adalmann: Nicely done, I must say I'm impressed you manage to figure out my little secret. What is your name, girl?
Shuna: My name is Shuna.
Adalmann: Shuna? Yes, Ms. Shuna. Let us commence our battle. If you somehow manage to defeat me, then I shall do as you wish.
Shuna: A very generous offer on you're part. But, our only wish is to see the fall of Demon Lord Clayman. If you kindly allow us to pass, then we will allow you to continue in this land.
Adalmann: I'm so sorry young lady, but I do believe that would be impossible.
Shuna: Is that so? Here I thought you'd be capable of breaking that binding spell. But, it seems like I overestimated you're abilities.
Adalmann: Trust me, If I could undo this spell then I would've done it a long time ago. You make it sound as if it's a simple task.
Shuna: Then as I planned... I shall defeat you in battle.
Adalmann: Then fight me with all the strength you have!
Multiple magic circles appeared around Adalmann.
Adalmann: Dissolve and Corrode all! {Acid Shell}!
Multiple {Acid Shells} are fired at Shuna, but she easily counters them.
Shuna: {Flame wall}!
After her spell nullified his attack, he prepared another spell.
Adalmann: Then how about this! You dead who bear grudges, offer me up a sacrifice! {Curse Bind}!
Multiple black serpents shoot out from his spell and towards Shuna.
Shuna: {Holy Bell}.
A magical construct is created and the bells easily vanquish serpent like tendrils.
Adalmann: I-Impossible! That's a divine miracle! How can a mere Monster like yourself possibly use Holy Magic!?
Shuna: You find it strange because you're so closed minded. Holy magic responds to the strength of the wish, and it works for anyone who believes in Miracles and wishes.
Adalmann: What!? You lie!
Adalmann's mind: I was betrayed by the top leaders of Luminism and I lost all my faith in the god Luminous. When I was reduced to this form, I thought I could never use Holy magic ever again... and now this girl is saying that isn't the case!
Adalmann: Ms. Shuna! Why did you believe I was once a user a Holy Magic!?
Shuna: It's a well known fact that those White robes you wear are only worn by the highest members of the Clergy. Meaning, you're magic was advance enough that you could wear them yet you're so weak you can't break a simple binding spell. You only wear those robes because you miss using holy magic, perhaps it was wrong for me to be wary of you.
Adalmann eyes glowed with fury.
Adalmann: Enough! I will hear no more from you!
Shuna was suddenly surrounded by multiple magic circles.
Adalmann: Please, hear me now! God for I live this prayer up to thee! I ask you to share the divine power of the Holy Spirit!
Adalmann's mind: Of course! My resolve was merely insufficient. My old compatriots who admired me came back as the undead, I couldn't bear to die and leave them behind. I was naïve, but if I plead sincerely for my wish to be granted... I bear no grudge against this girl named Shuna. If anything I feel gratitude for this monster for opening my eyes to the truth! Because of the curse of the one who bound me to this land, the Demon Lord Kazalim. I cannot take my own life! Forgive me, Ms. Shuna... But, I shall have to take you with me!
Adalmann: I beseech you God, please hear my wish! Put an end to this battle, {Disintegration}!
Shuna: I've been waiting for this...
Adalmann looked on in shock.
Shuna: {Overdrive}!
Shuna's {Overdrive} Completely overwrites Adalmann's {Disintegration} and makes it her own.
Adalmann: H-How did you overwrite my magic!?
Shuna: Excellent work. As a reward for your sincere effort, I shall set you free from this land.
She released a massive wave of pure Holy magic, wiping out both Adalmann and his undead forces as the spell engulfed the land.
Souei: You did very well, Princess Shuna.
Shuna: Thanks, at least it's over.
Hakuro: My goodness, I must admit the Death Knight was far more trouble then I had anticipated. I do believe you saved my life, Princess Shuna.
Shuna: Don't be silly, it was you who saved my life Hakuro. You did well buying me time from that Death Dragon so I could fight, Souei.
Souei: It shames me that I couldn't defeat it on my own.
Shuna: Yes, and I think I let my anger make me a little reckless in this situation.
Hakuro: I tend to agree, I believe our newfound strength has made us a little conceded.
Souei: Our Masters concerns were well founded, one never know what may happen in war. I should've gotten more info before we started...
Shuna: Well... let's go take control over Clayman's castle.
Adalmann: Please, wait.
They looked over to see Adalmann and his army had gotten back up.
Hakuro: Still standing? Then I shall finish-
Shuna: Wait. He's harmless, he no longer has the will to fight.
Adalmann and the undead knelt down.
Adalmann: Lady Shuna.
Shuna: Lady?
Adalmann: Thanks to you're magic and generosity. My compatriots and I have been freed from the curse of this land. Truly, this means there was a reason for our inability to pass on so I wish to ask a favor of you.
Shuna: ...What is it?
Adalmann: Lady Shuna, I would like to meet the one who you've put your faith in. When I lost my faith, I also lost the power I enjoyed at my peak. The faith I had in the God Luminous has sensed disappeared, and so I wish to discover a new God for me to worship!
Shuna: Yes, well they aren't exactly gods. While we have a great amount of respect for Prince Jasper and Lord Rimuru, we wouldn't say out right worship them.
Adalmann: Oh! There's two of them! And there names are Mighty Jasper and Great Rimuru? How exciting! I do say there's never been any more beautiful names befitting of our new gods! I may be nothing more then a weakened skeleton, but it is my most humble of hopes that I can still be use to your masters somehow. Would it be possible to these Mighty Jasper and Great Rimuru, my fair lady?
Kijin: -_-
Shuna's mind: I'm getting a Diablo, Shion, and Kurai vibe from him... but who knows! Maybe once he sees my lords he'll give up on his pursuits. Or, maybe at least when he sees Lord Rimuru... it'll be a bit more complicated with Jasper.
Shuna: Sure, I don't mind.
Adalmann: Thank you so much!
Shuna: You'll have to be patient though, we still have an important mission to carry out.
Adalmann: Yes! Please, allow me to guide you. have no fear, my friends. Just follow me!
He floated over to a specific path
Adalmann: Come on, right this way.
They looked at each other for confirmation before following him.
With that, they made their way to the castle of Demon Lord Clayman.
