Even as Another World's BONE KING, I'll still give 50% effort.

[Chapter 20: At the bottom of the Dungeon]

Black bones permeated from the lower halves of Haru's limbs, wrapping around and forming armor as he used his skill {Snipe} and projected a holographic scope from out of one of his eyes to figure out what exactly he was fighting against this time.

Haru: A tree creature huh? Those three are down there too, I can't exactly use one of my bigger attacks so...Bite its head off, Cobra Skull.

A bone tendril comes out from his back, evolving into what seemed to be a very long snake-like spinal cord that ends with a fairly large human skull bearing sharp jagged teeth. It was the first time he's used this outside of his Sovereign form and of his own volition.

The skull made a hissing sound before diving towards the beast below him, the spinal cord extending to give it more slack. Its jaws opened wide as it did what it was told to do, biting into the tree-like beast from above and using the force of its mouth to crack it open like a walnut. Parts of its bark flew everywhere as it continued to chomp down.

Haru: Its regeneration is going to be a pain in the ass...How do you defeat those sorts of bosses again? I think you're supposed to-

A certain half-demon girl embraces him from the side, the metallic clang of his dyed skeleton could be heard when she crashed into him and cut him off mid-sentence.

Airi: Where have you been?! We've been trying to find you two!

Haru: On the other side of this place as it seems, mind if I swoop in and help out, Airi?

Airi: The sooner we kill this thing the better.

Haru: That's just what I wanted to hear!

He separates the snake from his back, causing it to begin its disintegration while he dives in to attack the beast head on much to Airi and Elleth's protests against it. Ones that he had tuned out just because he just wanted to slash something to bits, it was a bit of a psychotic thought but he didn't really care about that.

On-

Two Charge!

At the same time, unknowingly, Touka and Celica were also about to perform their own finisher so to speak. With Celica charging up one of her claws with so much darkness that it looked like a void had consumed her arm, Touka doing mostly the same. Her gauntlet glowing brighter than usual.

The three attacks hit at the same time, the monster's regenerative properties being overwhelmed by them. Causing its destruction as represented by a particularly brown-colored explosion. A lot of its remaining bark, fruit, and leaves being left scattered on the ground.

Celica: Well this is convenient...

Touka: Nice to have you back, but where were you two?

Haru: I told Airi this already but we were apparently on the complete otherside of this place. It was day when we went out, now it's almost instantly night from our perspective.

Touka: I see...Shall we get going then?

Haru: That's the plan.

Airi and Elleth landed on the ground, retracting their wings as the five of them were reunited. And with the tower just past this forest, they will finally be able to clear this dungeon, get the rewards, and go home. Varying looks of determination were on their faces as the five marched towards the forest, the bottom of the tower locked in their sights.

A couple of minutes spent walking later and they were now at the tower. It was made up of stone bricks, all from different eras the closer they looked at them. And in the middle of it from both front and back was a door. From where they stood, one of those doors wasn't there at all, instead both halves left on the ground. Both having been ripped off while the other seemed to have remained intact.
