Pit: "Woah, he sold his soul? That doesn't sound very E10+..."
Palutena: "But using many different finger guns and weapons, he beat the evil fiend!"
Pit: "Alright! So I'm guessing he's gonna do the same now?"
Palutena: "That's right! He has a large arsenal of weapons, and they can be powered up with his Parry Cards. Defeat him before he gets too many cards."

Stage: Inkwell Hell
The stage starts as the players fight in Inkwell Hell. It moves to King Dice's room where he moves platforms around depending on the number on the die. Every time it gets hit, it changes and he changes the loadout. It then cuts to The Devil sitting in his throne as he fights the players, then kicks them out.
