. This fails and he dies. However, now there are two universes, the second of which is based off of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe.
. This fails, and now he shares a body with a guy named Walter. (Worship is currently in control, however, but he's better now. Ish.)
. This fails, but instead of dying, they proceed to lurk in shadows.
. This fails, and he is sealed away.
up again. Meanwhile, so does a robot named Coda, the trio of Badniks from before, and several other villains, making it a callback to (mostly) all above events, which is where we left off.
...destruction.
...destruction. Yes, of course, of course! Destruction is all that lies ahead for you!
Silent Siren | HP: 55%
Now, what we have here is a gauntlet of opponents, each in their own pocket dimension. Plenty of gauntlets have been designed by me and others for more adaptive beings, but this one is just right for any focus of skill, be it a sword, a hammer, or even a yo-yo†!
Meepmeep.
As my assistant Beaker will now demonstrate, this arena should provide just the right amount of challenge for anty warrior!
Now, let's say you come across an evil tree. A familiar face for a greater being, but for someone not always in the spotlight, quite unusual.
Regardless, in this environment, Beaker will be able to defeat this botanical specimen with relative ease!
...that's not gonna cut it.
Hm?
I need the kinda thing that really tests someone! The kinda thing where they're like "you'll know when you're ready" and they try it without asking and they screw it up and then like a month later it works...except I won't screw it up!
...Mack, I must say I'm a little more hesitant on that end. You certainly sound like you're seeking some sort of "wise mentor" figure, which isn't quite in my league...
...but considering your history with the Mushroom Kingdom and Dinosaur Land‡, I suppose I will have to suffice. Let me see what I can do.
Well...not too far off.
TITAN DWEEVIL: SELF AWARE ASSASSIN
I'm surprised I manage to play that back...it was worth it though...I'll have to scare the crap out of him next time...I still owe the Emperor for finding me shiny weapons...
Although absorbing knowledge from all those computers just to get this to work was a bit disturbing...Well not really. The tragic truth of this planet doesn't sadden me, just the burden of knowledge, and, language.
Well that was sudden.
Well fuck. Didn't think I'd be tasked with destroying a universe anytime soon but alright then.
That ought to do it! Don't want to destroy this whole omniverse just yet... I have a couple scores to settle...
I reckon we ought to get going then!
Wait assholes...why are you doing this? You already destroyed the last omniverse.
I did?
OF COURSE YA FUCKING DID
Well it happened so fast...
No fucking shit! Omniverses tend to stop existing pretty fast! And isn't evil energy so god damn worn out by now?
Well now I'll just do it again. And also who said I was using evil energy?
The trope of using both anti-matter, and dark matter as energy has been done to death...so this time I've used negative energy. And IT FUCKING WORKS. Of course I also tinkered it to bring out the deepest desires in dirtbags as usual, but it might just be the most effective and addicting antagonist fuel yet!
Oh I wouldn't be celebrating just yet!
Alright, now a few steps are over with! Now can we hurry up with your death or whatever? I'm supposed to babysit-
BABYSIT! Her familiars in a few due to me owing her a favor.
...yeah, pretty much. Doesn't help we have an incident or two to figure out†, among...well, personal matters with Dyna and Volt.
Wh...?!
...You know, I probably could help out with Rotom Lucifer- Can't be any harder than Beta Diablo, of which was completely bodied- but I'm fairly certain that Rhys had some kind of super-cool big attack to do exactly that, and I kinda don't want to steal his thunder.
Well, I should really get going, and have Reggae come with. I still have a restaurant to run.
...Aaaaand I should probably help Sabata recover from Django's Sol Trance stuff. Maybe I should ask Shadow Digital where he bought that special Sunblock from when I get the chance...
Wait, should we be helping out with Rotom Lucifer?
If you want. Or you can do what the Brash Crew and affiliates did and just leave. Your call.
...
In that case, let's wrap up some loose ends! Come on, guys!
...Well, now. You certainly took your sweet time in returning here.
Well, I'll tell you now that I WILL be leaving faster than it took for me to arrive.
Oh, I'm afraid you won't be returning to the Land of the Living anytime soon.
HAH! Oh, please. You and I both know what's going to happen; The Dead Zone Portals will one day reopen themselves, allowing for me to make my grand escape. And then, I'll do my grand scheme all over again, but BETTER. And even if that WON'T be any soon, that's fine; That just means more time for me to become even STRONGER.
...Indeed; Even within the deepest depths of Hell-BS, you would be able to train until the day that the Dead Zone portals open once more, allowing you to escape and fulfill your plans once more.
...However. The Dead Zone portals merely link between the Land of the Living and either the Zone of Non-Existence... or the many different realms of the Afterlife.
...Which is why you shall NOT be going to ANY afterlife.
Hmph. Maybe that'll be a lesson to those who think they can mess with the Moriya Shrine's third-
...trusty maid, who will not let his precious yo-yo be-
...destroyed! Yes, yes! Destruction is the solution to-
...me?! What's happening to me?!

Who am-wh-what am I supposed to-
Don't even bother; Those chains were forged from pure Vengeance energy. The more people who wants you to pay for what you have done, the stronger those chains become. And considering just how many people you have wronged...
Grrrrr...!
You see, "Devil", this place- Purgatory-BS- is NOT a part of the Afterlife. Instead, it is a gateway to either Heaven-BS and Hell-BS. No Dead Zone portal ever has been- or ever WILL be- opened here... Which makes it the PERFECT place to trap you in for all of eternity.
...Enjoy your stay here, Beta Devil... Because you will not be going ANYWHERE anytime soon.
...Hello? Is anybody home? We know this is probably a bad time, but...
Did we beat them here, or...?
I mean, we did just teleport here instead of travelling on-foot; Though, considering that Sonic Man was in critical condition, I wouldn't be surprised if they did so deliberately in order to prevent risk of further damage.
Ah. That makes sense.
So... Powerful... and yet... this power doesn't feel natural...
I... concur...... this foe may be even more powerful than the Onslaught Machine...
...The what?
(Damn... Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to let those shields do all the work when he could've easily blitzed past them.)
Welp... We're done for. The ride was nice, but it seems like that guy knocked our main healer out.
No... We shouldn't give up...
Peculiar. All of you are but innorganic lifeforms, only able to emulate the act of emotion, and yet... you take all this punishment, all for the sake of one miserable planet doomed to fall regardless... It is a passion I have yet to see in glorified computers such like your own.
...Unfortunately for you all, I have little to no care for such.
As long as one man stands against you, you'll never be able to achieve victory.
Noble sentiments from one who is about to die.
Now, let this infinitesimal thorn in my side be gone.
What the--!?
What the--!?
What the--!?
Alright, we've made it just in time.
Good. You take your siblings and the rest back to that Earth.
I'll be the one to deal with this menace.
...hi.
...
...Beta Diablo's dead. I'm not rearranging a group unless maybe we face another singular Omniversal threat.
Wasn't expecting you to.
Look, I'm gonna just be honest for a moment; I'm not the best at asking about this stuff. But I'm the only one I know who knows about it, so...
I want an explanation about this thing.
Greetings Volt, Dyna. We're simply just here to pick up all the stuff we kinda just put in the corner of the lab. You know, since Diablo is gone, and our services are no longer required... Assuming they even WERE to begin with.
After we take this stuff back to our base in Pumpkin Hill, we'll be waiting on Missingno. and a certain Mech-X droid. After that, we'll be out of the metaphorical-or-not hairs of this planet for good.
WAKA-WAKA.
(Looks like Shadwari was busy after all... Him and that miner guy.)
*ROAR* (All of them are on there?)
(Oh, yeah. And if my hunch serves me right, I'd say this is a good chance to put a stop to this guy once and for all.)
Huh?
αρσℓσgιєѕ... вυт ι αм αfяαι∂ уσυ ωιℓℓ вє gσιиg иσωнєяє иєαя тнαт ѕнιρ.
Looks like we're not getting outta this without a fight, after all.
...*BEEP.*
(Yeaah, I converted it just to see how I'd sound, not gonna lie I don't like it. Plus everyone somehow has no problem translating what I say, so, no real point.)
What the heck is this guy made of? He's avoided all of our attacks!
Yeah... we ain't hit 'em once!
I truly hope this isn't all you two are capable of, otherwise I've wasted my time expecting some sort of challenge.
And if not, then I'll just have to kill the both of you myself.
Try it, ponytail!
It's clear to me now... your attacks are as unrefined as can be. Never in your lives could you hope to defeat me with your current skill level.
...Not to complain or-a anything, but... Shouldn't we be helping the-a others with that Rotom Lucifer guy?
...Do not worry. Rotom Lucifer has, at most, a mere 12% chance of victory, perhaps lower. It is more than likely that he will fall, with or without your help. And, besides... You have more pressing matters to attend to.
And what kind of matters are they, exactly?
...I cannot reveal too much, otherwise I would get in trouble with... certain higher beings.
What I can tell you, however, is that it is crucial that you return to the Mushroom Kingdom... for it is currently in big danger.
Danger!? From-a who? Koopenstein? Bowser? ...Fawful?
...Once again, I cannot reveal much else. Just know that your mission is to begin within Peach's Castle.
I don't know, after the intense battle we just had, I really feel like we need a bit of a break... Aren't Wario and the others there to help out?
...Unfortunately, Wario, Somari, and the rest are busy dealing with another threat of their own, one that threatens the whole world. And if this mission is delayed any further... It could very well spell the END of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Wait, if this-a threat Wario is-a taking on is a threat to the world, then shouldn't he-a be of higher priority? Why can't we-a help them, and they-a help us in return?
...
HEY! What are you-a-
!
...I knew you could never beat me. But with all the tales I've heard, I was at least expecting SOME form of a challenge from you.
...But, then again... Reality can often be so disappointing.
GAH!
...What... What-a was...?
...What did you DO to him?
...That is but one of many, MANY timelines I have looked into. Should you try to assist Wario, then you- and especially everyone else- have a high possibility to DIE by the hands of the enemy Wario is up against. And even in the timelines where you all DO survive, it will already be too late, and the Mushroom Kingdom WILL be conquered. There is but ONE timeline where you manage to succeed in both, and the chances of such a timeline occurring requires LUCK to achieve.
...Please, DO understand: The mission I am putting you on is of upmost importance. It is the ONLY way to ensure that NEITHER villain achieves victory in the end.
...Normally, I would prefer to keep out of things... But regardless, I wish you all the best of luck.
