Agatha The Legendary Guild Master

I was already past the centre of this layer, so it took my four days to fly back. During the end of the third day, I felt my spear break free finally, and that was a signal that he had conquered every single monster there and was about to lay the layer with lightning, then invade the next.

Instantly I snapped my fingers, and this time it took quite some time for it to reappear above my head, vibrating as if it was expressing its dissatisfaction.

"Oh, you are upset?" I muttered with surprise, and suddenly I recalled the fact my prison artifact had a soul inside it speaking already to me. "Never thought you have souls inside, that's a first, that's indeed perfect," I chuckled, before finally cancelling my mystic art grip, held it in one hand, and patted on it with the other.

"Don't worry, you will have more chances soon to kill whatever you like."

It vibrated once more before returning to its silence and usual condition. I glanced over the whole distance still left before reaching the border, and sighed. "I just hope you are ok."

I knew my players weren't those weak anymore. After all I had already summoned every capable player outside the ring of the nobles from the entire game! if they couldn't sustain this pressure, then it would be futile to even struggle against this invasion in the first place.

Instead of saving them, I would rather think about saving myself. I waited for another day until I was finally able to reach the border.

The barrier was still there, but it was greatly weakened. This barrier was made by the giant demons like my one, not by those energy suckers like the other border.

And so, my lightning had no effect on it! it was only weakened due to the continuous attacks done by my demon towards it since I entered here up till now!

"We don't need to shatter it, just make enough space for my balloon to pass through."

I noticed my demon was trying all his might to smash the border into shreds, however that wasn't realistic at all! We can't destroy that huge border in a short time!

He glanced at me, before he started to focus all his attacks on a single point. Each attack caused the entire border to shake, with growing cracks appearing from the point he was battering with the sword.

In the next hour, these cracks grew wider, finally creating enough space for my balloon to pass.

"Keep hitting, one hour and we can pass!" I shouted at him while I stole glances at the scene inside.

"Sigh, they are really strong after all!" I heaved a long deep sigh of relief the moment I managed to gather pieces of what was going inside the fourteenth layer.

Chaos! Extreme chaotic battle was raging inside the whole layer, as far as my eyes could see! Players were running, attacking, jumping, defending, and dying!

However they weren't escaping! They were fighting until their last breath! Despite the mere visions of chaos I glanced shortly at, I knew they never lost hope of my return; they were sure of my victory; they believed in me!

And that really, greatly, touched me deep into the true core of my soul!

"Break it faster!" I shouted, with much urge in my voice that made the demon be confused at this moment, however he did exactly the same as I told him to do.

He increased the pace and intensity of his attacks, and the cracks started to grow wider in a speed visible to the naked eye. "Get ready, we will get passed here now!" I couldn't wait after half an hour, and I decided to push myself through these cracks.

I selected the widest, and moved my balloon towards it with the maximum speed I could get. The moment my demon stopped his attacks, the cracks started to retract again, in a speed that made the crack's hole I was aiming towards, was about to be closed.

"C'mon!!" I gritted my teeth as I controlled the whole balloon, driving it to move with the highest possible speed it could muster! Barely, just barely I passed through the crack at the last second, and even the corners and sides of my balloon got in touch with the borders of this hole, creating sparks along the whole body of the balloon, smashing parts of it in the process.

However, I didn't care!

"I finally returned, B*TCHES!!" The moment I entered the fourteenth layer I shouted with my loudest voice, attracting all those fighting in this place's attention.

Dead silence! The whole world ushered in heavy and shocking dead silence.

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

Suddenly this silence turned into the complete opposite uproar that shook the entire layer with these mighty cheers of my players.

Yeah, cheer loud, be proud, your leader was back!

"Heed my orders; Kill them all!"

It was my turn to shout, to act crazy, goddamn it I deserved acting this wild! I didn't need to turn to give my demon any orders at all, as he knew what he needed to do.

He turned around, faced the border we just came through, and the next moment he started battering that border with his sword.

And my spear had once again showed up, and this time I threw it towards the other border!

Let this cursed cage, the one that tortured me and my players and made us suffer all this trouble, let this damned two borders cage be shattered!

"Kill them all!" I shouted, while I moved my balloon, while taking out my shield again, activating it, covering me and my demon with the protective layer.

The whole world was literally a huge place of chaos! The huge armies of demons and soul suckers were now scattering everywhere, trying to kill and attack my players, while my players were trying to attack and kill them!
