Chapter 17 - Death's Return

The three members of the Corpse returned to their hideout to report to Death. At this point, Death finally acquired his moon abilities because the time-stopper machine deactivated and released Death's abilities.

"Ahhh. At last! I can feel power within me building up. Hahahaha!" Death triumphantly raised his hand.

"Are we going to kill Vladimir now my Lord?" Reaper asked.

"Of course Reaper, but before that. I can sense a strong scent of Lara's return. She is loyal to the Corpse before she was imprisoned, I wanted to see that loyalty. Hahaha. I want to see Stanford to witness despair before his death. Hahaha!" Death said.

"Who is this Lara my Lord?" Edge questioned.

"Let's just say she is one of my greatest spies. Hahahaha!" Death told Edge.

"Just give me JackSpark my Lord. We have our unfinished business." Zapper requested.

"He is all yours Zapper. Now that Vladimir is the only Stanford standing, we have no problem regaining our reign to these two worlds. Hahaha! But we should take it easy and enjoy. We don't need to rush things up." Death said.

Valkyrie and DragonKnight quietly spied and overheard their conversation but Valkyrie accidentally dropped something that created a noise.

"Ooops! Time to retreat DragonKnight." Valkyrie told DragonKnight.

"Ohh. I guess we have unexpected visitors here, let me welcome them." Vixen uttered.

"Crap! It's too late now Valkyrie! We need to fight our way out here!" DragonKnight stood and surprisingly attacked Vixen with a flame burst but Reaper ate the flames.

"Don't dare to touch my love rude boy!" Reaper shouted to DragonKnight.

Valkyrie contacted Adeath saying "Captain, we need reinforcements!" Valkyrie reported, however, Edge came from nowhere snatching the communicator.

"Care to play my dear?" Edge asked Valkyrie.

"I'd be glad to missy." Valkyrie replied.

Adeath, Gregeel and Crescent finally arrived with heated tension between the Corpse and Stanforce.

"You know, you are clearly outnumbered here. You have no chance to beat us Stanforce idiots! Now that Death is invincible now!" Zapper yelled to the Stanforce.

"We don't care about the result of this battle as long as we are here to stop you." Adeath replied.

Death is triggered by the Stanforce and said "Silence all of you!"

"Now's the time to test my abilities. No one dare to intervene me or I'll kill you." Death ordered the Corpse.

"Now's your chance to beat me Stanforce, my alliance will not participate in this battle. This is 1 vs 5. How do you like the advantage?" Death confidently mocked the Stanforce.

Adeath thought this is the perfect chance but suddenly King Vladimir mentally communicated to him.

"Don't fight him to death. Just find a way to get out of there." King Vladimir ordered his force.

"We'll plan for our retreat my King." Adeath replied.

"You know no one of you will be spared after this battle right? Hahaha!" Death intercepted their communication.

The Stanforce are facing serious danger at these point. Will there be some reinforcements to help them? Or will they face literal death with Death?
