With only two portals remaining,the hero decides to enter the next portal.Entering,he is greeted by what appears to be a throne room,with two thrones in front of him,and an old man sitting on the right one.As he approaches,the man speaks:"So,here comes the deliverer of death.He who slew the prisoners of fate.You are strong warrior indeed,I can feel it.Powerful souls are within you.Aspis,Basonne,Mordos the dragon,Bazul the demon,and the dark brothers.One by one,we depart from this world,freed from the chains of darkness.Very well.I,king Eutheros,challenge you to a duel.But I must warn you,boy.If you cannot best me,then you will never be able to defeat the true darkness awaiting you in the next portal.Now..."the king rises up,draws his black sword,with a curved blade filled with teeth,and points it at the hero"...begin!".
Beginning the fight,the hero is surprised by the old king's strength and speed.He is able to dish out incredibly strong blows,avoid the hero's swift strikes,and splits his sword in two,dual wielding it.Feeling unimpressed,the king extorts"Is that all you've got?You?The one who defeated Bazul the rampaging demon chieftain?What a failure".Gritting his teeth,the hero rises,and charges furiously at the king,striking him and pushing him a little bit back,but not for long,as the offensive is halted,and the king mercilessly strikes at the hero,disarming him and slicing him repeatedly,before stabbing him through the chest,and throwing him on the ground.Breathing heavily,the hero,despite being severely injured,gets up,and charges at the king,only to get destroyed immediately afterwards.Despite being barely able to stand,the hero does not give up,and rises again,this time barely strong to hold his sword.The king chuckles,and slams the warrior into the ground with his fists,pinning him."Fool.If you don't control your power,it will end you.Goodbye".As the king prepares to pierce the hero one last time,a dark explosion occurs,followed by howls.As the king recovers from the explosion,he sees something incredible.Bazul,the archdemon of the darkness,was wielding the silver sword and black shield of the hero,and assumed battle stance,showing that the hero finally awakened the dark soul within him.
Now on a fit of rage,the demon rampages against the king,delivering powerful strikes,causing the king to back away severely,before disarming him one more time.Now even angrier,the demon engages the king in a close quarters fist match,with the king barely being able to hold his ground.After five minutes of unrelenting fighting,the king collapses,as does the demon.Having transformed back to his true form,the hero picks up his sword,proceeds to the king,and prepares to take his life,while the king speaks his final words:"Good luck,champion of souls.You are truly a mighty warrior".The king is dead.
A bright orb,far brighter than the others,approaches the hero,and enters his body,granting him newfound speed,strength,and the ability to see the future,alongside every bit of experience the king had gained during the Great War.Having won all his battles,the hero prepares for one last battle,as he enters the last dark portal.
