Monstrous Sacrifice, a powerful Skill every World Boss possessed, it is what allowed them to sacrifice their armies of monsters to gain greater power.
Sometimes, even sacrificing a part of themselves, a piece of their soul, bodies, and so on could give them a greater power.
Both of the Demon Kings Planta has fought have used this power numerous times, even now, the Demon King of Death was using it to an extent, as he had sacrificed his own Undead and also Fafnir to obtain his new Body.
However, Players were still different from NPC. The Skills that Planta learned from the World Boss Shop came with special effects in exchange for being slightly weaker compared to other World Bosses.
But it made up for it with its destructiveness!
FLUOSH!
Planta's Aura turned deep red, as her Culinary Demon seemed to be merging with her!
The power of Monstrous Sacrifice even strengthened her Skills and Abilities, making them even mightier.
"Y-You…!" muttered the Demon King. "You used Monstrous Sacrifice… you have such a Skill?! But I thought…!"
"I already told you, thanks to you, I've gained a lot of power!" laughed Planta, suddenly becoming rather… evil-looking herself. "Fucking dumbass."
Her Skills altered her personality slightly…
"You're still soft though, you didn't sacrifice your own people, your own beasts… if you had, you could have gained so much more power, fool!" the Demon King laughed. "You're still attached to your pitiful feelings of love! No matter how hard you try to be like us, you'll always be different than us! You are no World Boss; you are no Demon King! You are merely… A TREE!"
He rushed towards Planta, as his entire body spread out hundreds of giant roots with enormous, sharp spears, attempting to pierce her body with them. Find your next read on My Virtual Library Empire
The roots came from every angle possible, Planta's Aura spread out alongside her Senses, from her entire body, countless muscular arms surged.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Guhah.. GUAHAHAHAHA!"
And her Culinary Demon laughed, its powers spreading through her entire body and giving her even more of its destructive strength.
The roots then were covered by the Flames of Monstrous Sacrifice, burning rapidly and turning into ashes!
"Dammit!"
The Demon King spread out his body further, trying to suck more and more life from everywhere he could, destroying the land, withering all the grasslands and absorbing the nutrients of the ground.
He quickly pierced the ground and started to take over it, merging with the stones, the dirt the plants, roots, everything he could find!
"I sacrifice half of my legion! Give me your power!"
He immediately sacrificed half his legion of existing undead in this moment, making them disappear in an instant, their power fueled him, suddenly growing larger and larger, and larger!
"RAAAHHHH!"
With a furious scream, his skull-like face divided into dozens. They started charging energy and fired countless beams of soul-consuming phantasmal flames against Planta.
"Becoming bigger is not going to work out like you think!"
Planta stepped forward and jumped towards the skies, facing the dozens of soul-destroying beams at once and releasing her Aura, constantly purifying everything with her Domain and Territory Takeover Skills.
FLUOSH!
At the same time as she channeled the power of a Domain she had become very connected to, absorbing its powers and releasing them through her Nature Soul.
"{Verdant Green Domain Magic}: {Yggdrasil's Divine Shield}!"
FLAAASH!
A beautiful, massive shield made of golden and green colored wood materialized out of her own body, protecting her from the beams.
The shield was not breaking either, showcasing tremendous durability on par with divine equipment!
But how was this possible?
"H-HOW…?!" The Demon King was shaken. "A mere shield spell… is taking on my attacks?!"
"This is no mere shield, fool…"
Planta sighed, as she charged forward, smashing the Demon King's heads with her gigantic shield and fusing them with several spirits to give it even more power.
"{Yggdrasil's Divine Shield Arts}: {Divine Verdant Goddess Counter}"
TRUUUM!
The shield manifested all the power it absorbed as a gigantic, green-colored arm surged, the arm of Lady Verdant, the "Goddess" born from the Domain that encompassed the entire Continent.
And then by imbuing it with the Flames of Monstrous Sacrifice…!
CRAAASH!
Planta carved through the body of the Demon King, splitting apart his entirety and shredding through all of it!
"NNGAAARRRGGHHH!"
As he screamed in agony as his very core and everything within him was being consumed by Planta's destructive flames, the Demon King of Death still clung to the mortal plane.
"NOOO! NOT YEEEET!"
As he screamed, he suddenly sacrificed the other half of his legion of Undead within this territory, and then even several parts of his true body back in the Underworld.
"I WON'T FALL!"
His body rapidly regenerated, growing giant bony arms and legs which were actually all made of corrupted black Yggdrasil wood.
His giant roots coiled around Planta's entire body, as he began siphoning her life energy, trying to kill her while he had her close.
"Stubborn…!"
As Planta screamed and started tearing him apart while he constantly kept regrowing new bony limbs and siphoning her life, suddenly…
FLAAASH!
A black star manifested above the skies, spreading his butterfly wings at the same time as his crimson eyes shone brightly.
"Master!"
His voice echoed above Planta, who didn't recognize such a voice at all.
"Master?"
She looked into the skies, noticing the small black-haired and red-eyed fairy that had appeared out of nowhere.
"Wait, who is that- Ah!"
The moment she saw his eyes, hair, horns, wings, and his aura… she quickly realized the fairy's true identity.
"So you've woken up at long last, Erebus!"
"I promised you, didn't I? That I would repent!"
FLAAASH!
Erebus descended like a black meteor, encompassing his body with crystalized miasma and then.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Destroying all of the Demon King of Death's arms!
"Thank you for buying me some time…"
Ding!
