3rd person pov

We see void looking around the new apocalyptic environment

"Did the developers really made an apocalyps version of the NWO map?" void said to himself as he was looking around

Just then as ge was busy looking around, he felt that there was a horde of monsters coming towards him

Getting ready to fight with sin and punishment in hand and with his passive skill [Heath's Embrace] giving him immunity from the constant burn debuff being applied to him

He saw in the distance monsters coming at him fast

Not wasting anytime, he activated [Mp Cut] [Accelerate] then [Pride] as he dashed through the enemy using [Flash Blink] before going into the fray

As he was cutting down his enemies left right and center, showing no mercy as they turned into particles leaving behind their soul orb

He got an entry permit, saying he is allowed to move up to the 2nd floor now

We see void turned around looking at all the orbs

"Well hope this works." void said taking a deep breath then lifted up his arm reaching high in the sky and shouted "EXPLOSION!!!"

........

Void looked around the area trying to see if something happened

"... Well atleast I tried..." void said then shouted "ARISE!" making the shadows take form of what the monsters looked like

"Hmmm just some soldier ranked monsters... Oh well atleast they make for good fodder." void said with a giggle as he commanded them to go stay with the rest of the army

Void then looks towards the direction of a beacon lighting up the sky

"That must be the entrance to the 2nd floor. Well I know where to go to now." void said to himself giggling

Void summoned articuno and hopped on its back as articuno flew towards the beacon, killing demons with a drive-by icicle shot and void making them apart of his army

Each dungeon floor has its own different version of NWO with a demon holding an entry permit on each one

As time went by, we see void climbing the floors at a scary pace

Reaching the 50th floor on the first day all the while increasing his army by only a thousand as well as leveling up his army and evolving the skill Ruler's Authority to Dominator's Touch

As void arrived at the 50th floor with his army, he went straight to where the beacon entrance to the 51th floor was and wait for the demon with the entry permit there

As void arrived at the entrance he soon found out why on the way here no demons attacked him

It was because it was a boss floor with a humongous demon protecting the entrance and his demon guards surrounding him

Void's summons fight the guards while he went to go deal with big chungus over there

A hp bar showed up with the name "Avaricious Vulcan"

Void activated [Stealth] then walked passed the demon guards with ease

As he was walking towards vulcan, he thought to himself 'That guy isnt moving at all... Something isnt right...'

As void was getting anxious as he was looking at the behemoth of a boss

Suddenly the boss wasnt there anymore

Shocking void as he stared at the now empty with wide eyes

He looked aroumd frantically and saw the boss about to attack his summons

Not wasting anytime, void used [Binding Chains] on all the surrounding guards near vulcan and vulcan as well

He went up to one of the guards and used [Focused Slash] killing it in just one hit

Making the rest who were chained up with it die as well

Turning them into paticles while leaving behind an orb

While the rest of the guards were swiftly dealt with from void' summons

Adding another victory on to void's belt

"The fuck was that shit bruh? You really cant judge a book by its cover. Oh well atleast I won... Now its to claim my rewards hehehehe." void said rubbing his hands together evilly but at the same time in a cute manner

There he saw the drops of vulcan

The Demon Monarch's Earring, Orb of Avarice, World Tree Fragment, Vulcan's Horn x2

Void equipped the earring then gave the orb to tusk since it doubles magic damage

Then void went to the orbs on the ground and raised his hand high in the sky and shouted "ARISE!" as the shadows danced around as they took form

(Extraction successful. One of the shadow's rank is "Commander". Name the shadow.) The message said popping up infront of void

"You're going to be called RedSanic." void said with a smile on his face knowing full well majority of the japanese dont know western memes, right?

A new message popped up saying (RedSanic Rank:Commander)

Void then went to clear the floors faster than you can pronounce otorhinolaryngologist correctly

-75th Floor-

We see void and his army defeat Metus and his army with ease

As he obtained The Demon Monarch's Necklace, Spring Water Of The Echoing Forest and demon souls sealed on metus pendant, he leveled up by 10 as well

He looked at metus' soul orb on the ground then looked at the other orbs as well, as he put on a cheshire grin on his face, he said "Arise!" as the shadows swirled around the orbs taking form

(Extraction successful. One of the shadow's rank is "Commander". Name the shadow.) the same message was seen

"Hmmm..." void thought long an hard and got an idea

He looked at the shadow of metus and said with a smile on his face "You shall be known as DeCaY."

After that, void went to look at all the rewards he got for completing the the quest

(Quest: Collect Demon' Soul, Part I (10,000 Demon Souls) Complete. Rewards: Item of choice, +20 bonus stats, hidden reward.)

Void chose a random item box for his item of choice keeping it for the time being and got a recipe for Holy Water Of Life

Void sighed with a smile graced on his face then said "Let's go I wanna be done with this dungeon before maple comes back from her vacation and pick a house with them."

We see void entering the 76th floor with his army behind him with all of its glory

Clearing the floors until they reached the 99th floor

Void Shadow's Domain skill evolved to Monarch's Domain

-End of Flashback-
-99th Floor-
3rd person pov

We see void and his army getting ready for the inevitable war about to go down

With his army that consists of:
Commander Slyvan, Articuno, Handsome Squidward, RedSanic, DeCaY.
Elite Knight Igris, Iron, Tank, Tusk, Anubis.
7000 Soldiers.
300 Elite.

We see void looked at his army returning them to his shadow as he entered the 100th floor

Only to be met with the demon king himself accompanied by his army

Void sighed and said with a cute smile "Well... Your going to be a fine addition to my army teehee."
