Blood stained the ground a crimson red as chaos reigned all around Yukimaru. In her mind, the events replayed over and over.
Rozalin revealed herself to be the real Overlord Zenon before vaporizing the imposter….
Rozalin, reawakened as Overlord Zenon, then set her sights on Adell and the others before attacking…
Adell's fists of fire breaking every bone in Rozalin's body and giving her severe lacerations before she fell on the ground, dead in a bloody heap…
Rozalin's body turning into a lavender light that overtook Adell's senses before possessing his body as her new vessel, turning it into a …
The possessed Adell then advanced on Hanako, breaking her slender form as she screamed before devouring her…
Then Taro suffered the same fate as the possessed Adell broke him and devoured him as well…
Then Etna and Laharl, having charged themselves up to their maximum powers, both made a daring assault on Overlord Zenon with the intention of seizing the title as the God of All Overlords rather than free the possessed Adell…
Yukimaru's thoughts were disrupted by the shockwaves of multiple explosions as Laharl and Etna unleashed her attacks simultaneously at Zenon, who retaliated with an array of black lightning. It seemed that both of them weren't the only ones who wanted the title as Saito the Shadow Master (Male Ninja), Johnson the Aragami (Sinner), Lance the Aegis Knight (Heavy Knight), Selma the Lilith (Succubus), Riley the Bahamut (Dragon), Keith the Omega Sentinel (Majin), Bolisk the Dreadnaught (Wood Golem), Belphor the Malchidael (Baciel), Selene the Bastet (Nekomata), and Henrietta the Beast Savior (Beastmaster) with an assortment of Hell Dragons (Zombie Dragons) under her command charged past Yukimaru to fight the Overlord God.
As the group engaged in combat against Zenon, Flonne was utilizing some of her magic on what was left of Taro and Hanako. Perhaps the fallen angel was trying to see where their souls went off to or maybe she was trying to bring them back to life, which was impossible in the kunoichi's point of view.
"Yukimaru!" a voice called out and Yukimaru turned to see Reiko, a fellow elite kunoichi landed next to her. "Why are you still here?! The others left and you should leave too before Adell gets you as well!"
"But what about them, de gozaru?" Yukimaru asked pointing to the battle where a number of their allies were fighting Overlord Zenon.
"Forget them! They're just greedy to become the new Overlord God but Adell is going to wipe them out sooner or later!" Reiko replied before noticing Flonne getting struck by a stray fireball, vaporizing her on the spot.
"Flonne!" Yukimaru yelled as the fallen angel was consumed in black flames.
"There's nothing we can do now!" Reiko spoke loudly. "They'll probably come back as Prinnies so don't worry about it.
"So who else is left now, de gozaru?" Yukimaru inquired.
"Just Mick, Catalina and Tink." Reiko replied. "One Battle Master, one Clerical Saint, and a talking frog that floats."
"How are we going to Adell's parents that Taro and Hanako are dead, de gozaru?" Yukimaru inquired.
"I don't know but if they happen to have been sent to Celestia as Prinnies, then they'll be fine." Reiko replied. "But right now, endless numbers of fleets and Overlords from all over the universes are heading this way and I don't want to be caught in their stampede to fight Adell. Let's take the advantage of this distraction to head back to Holt Village and plan out our next moves."
"Agreed, de gozaru." Yukimaru replied before she and Reiko quickly sprinted and withdrew from the battle being waged ahead of them.

Suffice to say, both of Adell's surrogate parents were overwhelmed by the revelation regarding Overlord Zenon placed before them by Catalina, Mick, and Tink. In fact, the commotion that Yukimaru heard from within the house could only be Adell's mother losing her sanity and crying out in anguish upon hearing that the possessed Adell killed Taro and Hanako. The sounds of broken furniture and shattering glass could be heard along with the sounds of Adell's surrogate father trying without success to calm his wife down.
As the kunoichi looked at the horizon and seeing the sunset in a bloody red color, she could only think about what might be transpiring at the fake Overlord Zenon's castle.
"Yukimaru." A voice called out and the kunoichi turned to see her older brother Fubuki, garbed in attire that was a testament to the Snow Melody Clan, appear from the darkness. He wasn't alone as Reiko was also with him as well.
"Fubuki." Yukimaru replied.
"It's surely a dark time that awaits everyone now." The young man remarked as he handed his younger sister the Arcadia emblem that Adell had claimed as a prize while in the deepest recesses of Cave of Ordeals, fighting a Zombie King. "Reiko and I found this in the ruins before following the carnage".
"I had not expected to hear that the real Overlord Zenon and the woman named Rozalin were one and the same." Fubuki added.
"Now that I hear this from you, I see now that Overlord Zenon had been the main reason why the imposter destroyed our people long ago." Yukimaru replied, remembering on how Rozalin's eyes held the sparkle that was a trademark to only those of the Snow Melody Clan.
"Even now, more Overlords are still pouring into Veldime in massive numbers." Fubuki remarked. "But we cannot guarantee any hope that they will be able to defeat Adell. They're walking into a slaughter-pen as we speak."
"So what do we do now?" Yukimaru asked.
"Jin and his group have been able to recover the last six map pieces they need in order to chart a course to the Land of Carnage." Reiko replied. "It may be that Holt Village will not be safe should either the possessed Adell or the other Overlords coming into Veldime expand their maelstrom of chaos here. Everyone in Holt Village has already left for distant worlds."
"Everyone left, de gozaru?" Yukimaru inquired in surprise. "Is there anyone left now?"
"Only Adell's parents are left in Holt Village. Jin's group and those survivors who went with you are still here as well." Fubuki replied. "Hawkeye has the Gargantua ship ready to go."
"To go where?" Yukimaru asked.
"The Land of Carnage." Reiko replied. "It's a safe haven that should give us time to train ourselves in order to retake Veldime and fight Overlord Zenon."

"It's a good thing we came back from the Item World in time." Jin remarked as the Sword Master fitted the sixteen maps together. Next to him, the busty Space Knight Monique watched as Jin charted the course to the Land of Carnage.

"I don't think we'll need more people to come with us." Adell said as he addressed Jin. "But I do want to get the chance to reach the Land of Carnage that we've all heard about lately once Zenon is dealt with."
"I understand." Jin replied.
"As of now, I'm giving you some backup to make things easier." Adell spoke. "I'm sure Monique is more than willing to go with you."
"Who else is coming with me?" Jin inquired.
"Trent, Elise, Sara, and Montag." Adell replied. "A Prism Mage, A Prism Witch, A Trickster, and a Geo Master."
"It's a good combination." Jin remarked. "Personally, I thought only Monique, Sara, and Montag were enough."
"Well, it wouldn't hurt to have excessive firepower." Adell replied. "We only need six more maps. Be vigilant and good luck."
"Thanks and good luck in taking out Zenon." Jin replied in kind.

"Pity that this unfortunate turn of events is unexpected." Monique remarked. "Now we're all having to find refuge in this new land."
"I just hope Montag is alright." Jin replied, remembering on how the Geo Master had molested the Succubus group at the Empusa Bar in the Item World, causing them to attack the old man that Jin and Monique stepped in to get him out.
"You should've sent either me or Sara into those Mystery Rooms that time." Monique remarked. "I guess Montag didn't have much restraint, seeing on how he was surrounded like that."
Jin nodded before looking at the maps. "I think this set of routes might work but maybe Hawkeye has a better opinion."
"Ask him tomorrow morning, dear." Monique replied as the Space Knight placed an arm around the Sword Master's shoulder and leaning in to peck his cheek. "In the meantime, you really need to get some shut-eye."
Jin sighed a bit before placing the maps together back into the pocket in his traveler's mantle.

At the ruins of the fake Overlord Zenon's palace…
Adell… or rather, Overlord Zenon herself watched as tens of thousands of Overlords surrounded her and attacking with striking coordination. Yet, despite being a bit taxed by some of Adell's followers, she managed to decimate her enemies with pure brutality, slashing their bodies and breaking them literally before feasting on some of her kills. Standing at seven feet tall and sporting a pair of gargoyle wings, the Overlord Goddess manipulated Adell's body with striking efficiency, utilizing a few of his skills such as his Soaring Fire technique. Overlords put up a deadly offense, yet it didn't do much justice against the demon before them.
"So, who else wants to die?" Overlord Zenon inquired with a disdainful sneer before getting response in the form of a massive assault from Overlords present as they used their strongest attacks simultaneously.
Amid the chaos, more fleets with their respective Overlords were arriving to join the fray, not knowing on how powerful their quarry really is.
