The final stand

???'s POV

Death...

It's all anyone can see or smell in the land of Exia. Death and blood cover the land...

But atop the armies of dead monsters and humans alike, a large amassing of warriors can be seen.

I'm also there.

First we see a centipede amalgamation adorned in spiked armor. Of course that isn't me.

Even farther we see a woman made of water with gauntlets made of magma and lightning, and no that isn't me either.

At the very back of the large massing of warriors we see a man with a flaming sword and golden armor.

That isn't me either, you can't really see me right now but you'll see me later.

But for now we must listen to The warrior in golden armor.

"Men, Women, animals and Xenos, it is with great honor and great sadness that I declare the first and last United assault of all beings in all of exia! May our blades strike true and our weapons Pierce and slash through it's unholy scales, May our divine magic protect us from evil and death. May our combined alliance of all the forces of the heavens, the hells and the mortal world finally be enough to destroy this ancient evil! CHARGE!!!" The man in Gold also known as the god emperor yelled out.

The god Emperor led his alliance and all of the other alliances in all of exia against their common foe... The forgotten evil.

It showed up one day and started destroying entire kingdoms with ease. The longer it is alive the stronger it gets and the ancient evil was unbeatable right now. But seeing how the entire Universe would be destroyed in 24 hours, the god Emperor rallied the forces of every living being and every undead being to destroy the evil once and for all.

5 hours later, after losing 29,900 of their 30,000 warriors, the GSA, the United Force the god Emperor led, finally made their way to the last floor of the ancient evils Tower.

This Tower was once a part of a large Kingdom, the kingdom of Schrade. This kingdom was once a seat of power in the world, a kingdom which was thought to be indestructible and unbeatable. But in a single night, the entire Kingdom, which spanned the entirety of Exia was reduced to nothing else but this single Tower.

The remaining 100 warriors made their way to the center of the Tower.

This was the highest point in the entirety of the universe, greatly towering above even the heavens, this was the tower which the ancient evil dwelled.

The god Emperor spoke to the remaining warriors. "We have lost a great many warriors, friends and family alike have been snuffed out by just the journey to the top of this Tower of terror. And I would just like to say, thank you for journeying with me and fighting by my side toda-"

The god Emperor was interrupted however, as a storm of Black wind appeared out of nowhere and consumed the tower in darkness... And then it appeared as a red lightning scorched the sky and the ancient evils great power forced the warriors to their knees.

One of the 100 spoke with a determined voice which rallied the warriors to get up.

"Fear it not my companions, but steel your blades I'm prepared for a long fight... For it appears to consume us all in it's might! The unbeatable one!" The warrior shouted as he downed a gold and orange potion.

Suddenly, the sky and reality cracked open with red energy as a monstrous claw started to enter into the arena. Monstrous red glowing Ruby eyes shined through the void as a large and deep echoing voice seemed to echo across the entire Tower.

"HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN... I HAVEN'T SEEN SUCH STRONG BEINGS IN EONS... BUT ENOUGH, FINALLY I AM FREE FROM THE CHAINS THAT THE OTHER PRIMORDIAL CREATORS PLACED UPON ME, NOW I HAVE BROKEN FREE INTO YOUR REALITY, INTO ALL REALITIES. AND NOW I WILL DESTROY YOU AND BUILD A THRONE OUT OF YOUR VERY BONE FROM WHICH I WILL SIT UPON AS THE ENTIRETY OF ALL OF EXISTENCE COMES TO AN END BY MY DIVINE MIGHT..." the ancient evil bellowed as its voice slowly came to a silent whisper.

Another warrior responded to the ancient evil.

"That's not going to happen, we can put destroy you and save this world and all others from your evil and cruel ways, now you will die!" Spoke Maximus one of the 100 remaining warriors.

Suddenly, one of The 100, a warlock named Ytr, suddenly exploded from the inside out as a skeleton with icy blue eyes wearing a Golden crown appeared from Ytr's body.

The god Emperor looked at his fallen warrior with confusion and fear. "An Eldritch Frost Lich? Impossible how could one Spawn from a living host?"

The monster then spoke with a chill in its voice. "The hearts of mortals are easily corrupted, don't you agree emperor of the Gods? By manipulating your friends envy of your power and position along with his greed for Glory, the chill of death was able to corrupt his heart into a perfect seed for me to hatch from. And as you know, the power of one of my species depends on three factors, 1: how strong the host is, 2: how powerful they're greed and envy is, and finally 3: how afraid are they? Safe to say, your your friend has made me very powerful."

The monster then spawned massive tentacles made of water and ice to destroy the 99 remaining warriors.

The strongest of the 99s mages then started to chant A powerful spell.

"Plague of life and flame!" The mage said as a powerful burst of gold and red energy blasted from its black slimy body.

The golden Red energy destroyed the Lich, but the mage then fainted and died from over exhaustion as the cost of such a powerful spell.

The god emperor's brother, the pale emperor then started to speak.

"Is that all you have? Liches and tricks? Pathetic! For you are nothing against the combined strength of the most powerful warriors in all of the universe of Exia!" He screamed out.

Which of course was starting to hurt my ears, and just then, the massive hole in reality started to open up 100 times wider as the massive beasts claws ripped the hole open.

And then there was silence...

A full 10 minutes of nothing as the whole seemed to close...

And then out of nowhere faster than any of them could comprehend... The beast, no... I made my first attack as bolts of red lightning which moved far faster than light struck at 17 of the warriors and reduced them to ashes, of course not being one to waste resources, I used agent magic to reform their ashes into undead monsters to attack their friends.

I watched as my undying playthings slowly took out more and more of their friends.

To make things a bit more epic than they already were, I caused bolts of red lightning to swirl around the arena in a massive Red tornado of power and death. I then proceeded to watch as the battle raged on.

10 hours later...

I watched as they perished one by one, however it appeared I underestimated the two brothers, as their weapons were somehow able to kill the undying, odd those shouldn't be able to be killed by anything unless it's a Divine artifact. But then again that flaming sword and that pure gleaming one might be divine artifacts. No matter these two are the last of the GSA and they too just like all the other gods and goddesses and monsters in the GSA will perish beneath my might.

But seeing how they had finally defeated my playthings, I decided it was time to finally make my entrance.

TGE's POV

Damn it, only I and my brother were left alive we were out of potions and we could feel the dread in our bodies. But we picked ourselves up as twisting and winding storm of red lightning which surrounded us started to close in on us as it started to become a cone funneling all the energy to the top.

And then from the very top of the cone of red lightning, a large blast of red lightning appeared as it started to morph into bones and flesh and scales. So the ancient evil of legend had finally decided to reveal itself the The Unbeatable One...

I ran with my blade in hand as I started all the spells I could remember. I yelled and screamed with all of my power. "Flames of Oblivion, reality cutting speed, Divine precision, rotating Helix shield and reaction speed enhancement!"

My brother got the same idea as he picked up his blade and pointed it to the heavens. "Iron shell, spatial rend, enhanced sidestep, unbreakable shield, splintering gleam, mirrored reaction and Divine wyrm strike!" he yelled as we blitzed forth towards our opponent. TUO phased through our attacks and flew fast enough to make clones out of after images.

My brother then tossed me a potion of temporal acceleration, I saw that he had one as well... I gave him a a slight side eye and nod as I downed the potion. Suddenly time stopped for everyone except me and my brother.

However somehow, TUO was still moving at a normal speed. My brother gave me a nod as he tossed me his blade and reeled back his gauntlet as he charged at the beast.

"World of desolate blades!" he screamed out as all of reality around him, aside from me, was instantly shredded into nothingness, not even he was safe from his own attack. Seems like the beast was finally dead...

Wait that's not possible...

World of desolate blades is a instant kill absolute hit attack that can't miss or be dodged, it even attacks the invisible and even entities that can phase through reality... It's only caveat if it doesn't work on someone wielding two or more Divine artifacts... But the beast had none.

I was certain that it didn't have any Divine artifacts...

Before my disbelief what's none other than the glowing Ruby eyes of The Unbeatable One, not even with a scratch on it.

"THAT WAS IT? SUCH A WEAK ABILITY LIKE THE WORLD OF DESOLATE BLADES CANNOT HARM ME... DO YOU THINK I WOULD HAVE BEEN SEALED AWAY IF SUCH AN ATTACK COULD HURT ME? NO... BUT NOW YOU ARE ALL ALONE... THE LAST EMBER OF HOPE AGAINST THE ALL CONSUMING DARKNESS~ NOW ACCEPT YOUR DEMISE!" TUO roared as it slowly made its way towards me.

I clutched my brother's blade in my hand as I unleashed all of the Power I had in my bodies, physical, spiritual, mental and even divine, I then combined that power with all of the Power of my brother had sealed within his blade as I unleashed all the power sealed within my blade as well.

This is it, the ultimate final attack which will decide the very fate of Exia!

I remembered the 20 years I and my brother had spent in Exia, truly a wonderful 20 years well spent. And now this is my final attack for all of my friends, my family and even random strangers I never knew... FOR THE EMPEROR!!!

I then blasted forth all of the combined power I had absorbed out of my hands and into a massive blast with the power of 10 big bangs...

"PRIMORDIAL CREATORS ERASING BEAM OF COSMIC WONDER!!!" I yelled at the blast covered the entirety of Exia with its light...

But then I heard it...

TUO then calmly spoke. "ABSOLUTE REFLECTION"

This was a spell I had heard of many years ago when I just started my journey in Exia.

It was a spell the primordial creators used to reflect any and all attacks that were sent at them, it condensed those attacks into a singular point of time and space to absolutely make certain that the attack hit the target.

Oh no...

And just like that, the last thing I saw was the pure white and black light appearing for a single frame just before I perished.

Well it was fun while it lasted, at least I tried killing the ULSB with the entirety of the server... And now my entire account was deleted...

Well this sucks, I got out of my Gaming suit as I saw my brother looking at me with hope and distain.

He then spoke to me in a calm but sad voice. "Did you beat it?" I shook my head as he started to cry and hugged me with all he had.
.

???'s POV

And just like that, I completely extinguished the entirety of the server! I finally have successfully defended the greatest scale attack in gaming history!

I smiled as I snapped my hands in the arena returned back to normal and all of existence reformed back to a normal sunny day.

I then teleported back to my humble abode.

Soon I was in a white void as black outline started to appear and form my home

This was the massive Castle which I hid all of the artifacts and weapons I had collected over the years of defeating so many players.

I placed the flaming blade of the god emperor and the white nail of the pale emperor inside of their brand new cases.

It's a shame I will never be able to use them...

OH! You are probably so confused about what's happening aren't you?

allow me to explain, you see, to distract ourselves from the fact that the world is basically ending due from over pollution and radiation, many gaming companies started to create a brand new type of game. An ARGS or a Augmented Reality Gaming Simulations, over time however, DMMORPG's came along and started taking over the business as they had supposedly better graphics. Anywho, around 20 years ago my company, which made and sold ARGS, created what was in my personal opinion, the greatest game ever made.

Exia Tales Of the Forbidden, a massive game with limitless customization options and because lawsuits and copyright claims from over 100 years ago had expired, we were able to have access to characters and entities from franchises from centuries ago.

But the customization wasn't all the game had, it had a constantly expanding world, nay, a constantly expanding and thriving universe to explore. You could even create your own spells and weapons if you wanted to. There was essentially no restrictions to the game or what you could become or what you could do.

In Exia, you could become whatever you wanted and have whatever Powers you wanted. And I of course loved the game more than any.

In the games Hay Day, it had over 2 million players and over 400 different factions to choose from or join or if you wanted you could create your own faction and race.

And then Yggdrasil came...

It was an immediate hit with the public, it was popular and it slowly quickly drained almost all of Exia's player base.

But enough about sad topics.

When Exia was first brought to the public, there were 13 original factions. These were the WH-40k, a faction which contained people who were still interested and still loved the Warhammer games from 100 years ago, the leader of this faction was the god emperor.

The next faction was the Shadow of Mordor, people who loved the ancient Lord of the rings franchise, it's leader was of course named morgoth.

Then there was a space cowboys. Led by cruiser the cyborg octopus.

Then there was the HK-40K, a combination of the old games hollow Knight and Warhammer. Led by the pale emperor who was IRL Brothers with the god emperor.

Then there was The fray, a faction led by a race of monstrous golems, that were actually just tens of thousands of cats piloting hollow golem suits, Their leader was Sir Garfieldicus.

Then there was the sith, whose leader was Darth Vader.

Then there were the monster hunters, a guild of humans who decided to strip monsters and bosses of their bones and flesh and use said bones and flesh to make armor and weapons.

Then there was the table top Titans, basically people who still play D&D and decided to add their characters into the game, led by Tiamat.

Then there was the bread boiz, which was really just two stay at home dads who decided to be crusaders with the power to spawn a mountain sized loaf of bread anywhere they pleased.

Then there was iron veil, a grouping of thousands of robot players who decided to model themselves as a combination of Ultron from the MCDCU, (basically when Disney bought DC they decided to come by in the two franchises of marvel and DC.)
A liquid Terminator and necrons from Warhammer. Led by Lord Ultron sigma EX.

Then there was the weird Al's, a group of people who decided to dress like different versions of the old singer weird Al, each and every one of them was in a different outfit which was from a different one of weird Al's videos. The faction had no leader or master as it was led by all of the weird Al's together. But for some reason they all only had the power of speech which allowed whatever they said to come true.

Then there was the plushie buddy's, a group of players that were just living plushies that assimilated worlds and their civilizations into plushie NPCs which they controlled.

And finally the last faction was the hardest faction to get in as well as the strongest faction. The server bosses.

The server bosses were called that because they were the strongest players in each server, there was never two server bosses in the same server.

Essentially a single server boss is a threat so powerful that in order to defeat it or match its power, the entire server would have to combine all of its power in order to destroy the boss.

A server boss gets stronger over time so the longer they are alive the stronger they get.

And I was at the top of the server bosses.

There are about 50 servers each could hold 100,000 players maximum.

In order to rank server bosses in terms of power, the SBRS was created, or the server boss ranking system.

These rankings are Continental calamity, a server boss which required 100 players to kill. A planetary patron, a server boss which required 1000 players to kill. A legendary Lord, which required 10,000 players to kill, a god killer which required a entire server to kill, and finally there was the highest rank which was owned by me.

The Unbeatable One, or the Unbeatable Level Server Boss, which was found at Tower Schrade, the only place where servers were able to link together. A hub of where all of the players in the game could join together and interact at once despite being in different servers. TUO required 1 million players to kill.

However, when we lost most of our player base and the number of active players became 30,001, the primordial creators, or the other game dev's aside from myself, sealed most of my power only allowing me to roam and appear at the top of the tower unless I was given explicit permission from the primordial creators themselves.

But, because I was dying of cancer and radiation poisoning, the other devs decided to shut down the game and give everyone who still played a 24-hour notice.

All the players who still played the game joined together to defeat me, thinking it would be easy because most of my power was sealed away.

But because the game was being shut down and I was dying, my fellow developers decided to give me explicit permission to use my full power but I was still not able to leave the tower or the small pocket dimension I had created, which still was technically on top of the tower.

But anywho, time for a full introduction.

My name is Natalie Ely, CEO and head developer of Halloware Games.

I am 43 and for 20 years I have been developing and nurturing my game, acting as a unbeatable boss to inspire growth among the player base so they would finally be able to beat an unbeatable obstacle.

Unfortunately I made myself way too overpowered. So I asked my friends and fellow developers to come up with the seal which stopped me from being so overpowered, but still no one could beat me.

I'm getting off topic again sorry, anywho, when I died my game would die with me as I was going to die when the game shut off due to me requesting to be put down because I could not stand the overwhelming amount of pain.
.
.
.

And seeing how that battle had tooken up so long, and how I had been standing in front of my artifacts for even longer, I decided to summon all of my NPCs to me so we could watch the game end.

First up or six of the most powerful NPCs in the entire game, the primordial fragments, slivers of the power that remained from the primordial creators aka the other developers.

Of course they took inspiration in their designs from hollow Knight and named the fragments after the members of team cherry from so long ago.

The first fragment who appeared was Ari, the fragment of color.

The second fragment to appear was Kazi, the fragment of the past.

The third was pellen, the fragment of personality.

The fourth was Griffin, the fragment of design.

The fifth was Larkin, the fragment of sound.

Finally, the last fragment to appear was Vine, the fragment of control.

Together the six fragments maintained order in my home, each fragment let a army or race from hollow Knight, the first fragment had sway over the simple common bugs and spiders, the second fragment commanded the pale watchers and the five great knights, the third fragment controlled the moths, the fourth enforced the bees, the fifth guided the grimm and the sixth fragment commanded the Moss beings.

But hollow Knight was not the only thing which inspired the entities I commanded.

From the throne room appeared the leader of all of my forces and my second in command.

The elegant Crystal Dragon from the heavens, Xeno'jiva, the maiden of death.

Upon seeing me, she quickly transformed into her much more humanoid appearance and bowed before me.

The crystal dragon spoke to me. "My lady, you have returned. May your might bring a Swift and gentle destruction to all who oppose you." She said as she spoke one of her voice lines.

Suddenly from the bellows of the dungeons, a metallic beast of horrific design appeared.

Megara Maxima Majestrix, the feared torturer and beastmaster of the White Palace. A mechanical monster who destroys any and all Intruders who enter the White Palace.

And finally Were the slimes, a grouping of monsters capable of shapeshifting as well as disintegrating all they touched and adding it to a part of themselves, with an endless hunger and thirst for blood and death, they were considered some of the most powerful and terrifying beasts under my command. As well as the servants who each had a certain job around the palace.

We went to the very top of the palace under my guidance and watched into the white void as it soon turned midnight... And the injection hit my brain, killing me...
