[Your party has accomplished the requirements to summon the Hidden Boss]:

[Do not let the Dracolich transform into a Phantom Dragon.] freeweɓnovel.cøm

[Kill the Dracolich before it transforms.]

[Leave the Dracolichʼs core intact.]

[The Floor 5 Hidden Boss: [Tentacled Grieving Nether Soul Fragment of Outer Death: Yer-bogarr (Star Eater Realm: Tier 5)] has emerged!]

[Yer-bogarr screams in agony over its own existence! Its voice makes anybody that listens to it have their Stats reduced by 20%!]

The grieving thing was the hidden boss of this little Cosmic Dungeon, whose difficulty wasnʼt higher than World Realm Tier 5! This monster, however, was on another whole Realm altogether.

It was slightly worrisome to let my kids fight this thing, they werenʼt as strong after all, and were just getting used to their cosmic powers. They did leveled up a whole lot though, so maybe they werenʼt as weak as I thought now.

Actually my kids have always been kind of broken, but when we reached the Cosmic Scale, things can get ridiculous very quickly, so Iʼm afraid. To make things more complicated, that thing decreased stats to everything around it.

”GRAAAAHHH! PAINFUL! AGONIZING! GRIEVING…! IT HURTS…! IT HURTSSSSS! YOUUU! YOU ARE TO BLAMEEEEE!”

And as it screamed and began to take upon some sort of shape, it expanded, resembling a ball of miasma and nether with countless, thick, dark blue colored tentacles.

And red eyes across them all.

These tentacles and this appearance, they really remind me of someone, a certain annoying bastard that governs the Necrotic Plane.

The Necrotic Plane Ruler, an eldritch god-like entity that is both the king of all undead and also an unfathomably powerful being.

But what is a piece of him doing here? It is certainly a fragment of his soul, but it seems to lack his memories and intelligence.

Well, isnʼt that interesting? Could these Cosmic Dungeons be fragments of Planes and Realms, or even of Worlds, as it said originally?

Hmm… Well, that still doesnʼt make him any less dangerous. If anything, its even more dangerous now.

”Hey Kireina, that thingʼs a bit dangerous, no? Itʼs as strong as a Recessed now, I think!” Lilith panicked a bit.

”Yeah! We have to help the kids now!” Nephiana said.

”No, stop it,” Altani suddenly said. ”Let the children fight it on their own. In this universe, thereʼs no saying theyʼll always face beings equally as strong, or weaker than them.”

”What? But Altani, isnʼt this a bit too much?” Faylen asked, she was concerned too.

”I donʼt think it is,” said Altani. ”They need to learn how to deal against a foe much stronger than them, to work together and complement their weaknesses and strengths as one.”

”At the very least, weʼll join too,” Aarae said.

”Yeah, that should make things a bit fairer, weʼre not super duper strong either,” Valentia said.

”Hmm, alright then,” I nodded. ”Let the kids fight. Iʼll buff them with my skills, would that be safer?”

”I guess…” Nephiana sighed.

”It canʼt be helped,” said Charlotte. ”The children must learn in battle anyways, their new skills and abilities will only blossom through it… Electra is strong I trust her.”

”Trust your kids!” Altani said with her warrior heart.

I noticed many had conflicting opinions, but after I took the decision they ended accepting it. I reassured them, telling them I would buff them, and I didnʼt lie regarding that.

”{Divine Command: Attack Rally}! {Heavenly Demonic Elemental Spirit Sanctuary Manifestation: Pandemonium}! {Primordial Azure Sea Orichalcum Armament Creation: Cosmic Azure Armor}!”

Crimson Auras overflowed from the children, accompanied by giant, phantasmal sanctuaries made of elemental light and power, and then their bodies were covered by new, cosmic azure-colored armor made of my special metal.

Full powered-up, the children were ready to face off a fragment of the Necrotic Plane Ruler, as strong as a Recessed, a good challenge to test their teamwork.

”Woah! I feel so strong now!” said Scarlet. ”Thank you mama!”

”With mamaʼs buffs and big sisters Aarae and Valentia, we can do it!” said Nirah. ”Right, everyone?”

”Yeah!” Electra cheerfully said. ”Letʼs do our best!”

”Better take a dragon form quickly then, Emerald!” Fafnir called for his brother.

”Okay!” Emerald nodded.

”If we donʼt cooperate well together, weʼll end up losing, so donʼt attack recklessly!” said Alucard. ”Can you guys follow what I say? I think I got a plan!”

My bright vampire son seemed to have developed much quickly in terms of intelligence and cognitive abilities compared to his other siblings, perhaps because Vampires grow fast and have an innately cunning mind.

”Hmm, okay!” said Electra.

”Alucard has done a lot of great stuff… sure!” Fafnir nodded.

”Hm, ok,” Emerald didnʼt mind either.

”Okay only for now!” Scarlet said. ”But only because youʼre my cute little brother!”

”Iʼll follow what Scarlet choses!” Nirah agreed too.

The rest of the harpy children had all their own conflicting opinions, but at the end, they agreed once big sister Nepharia agreed.

”Fine, Alucard has more experience facing cosmic beings after all, even though weʼre older,” said Nepharia. ”Everyone, letʼs follow him for now!”

”Well, if he ends up making a terrible plan and we fail, then we are not following what he says anymore!” said Solyth with her bratty attitude, her glistening golden feathers releasing electricity.

”I guess youʼre not wrong there, Solyth,” The vampiric harpy, Uryphe, nodded. ”Little brother, weʼll follow your command for now.”

”Honestly, Iʼm not so sure, but if Nepharia wants to…” Caellaeno shrugged, his flames rotating around his body. ”Well, letʼs do it for now!”

”Hehehe, little Alucard is quite the cunning little vampire, hm?” Dereo giggled, his poisonous slime covering him, resembling a purple-colored cloak.

”Fine, letʼs do what he says, I am not in the mood to make up a plan myself anyways~”

”Okaaay!”

Ocypyne and Nyphenne, the two aloof sisters, agreed almost instantly.

”Heheh, interesting! Okay little Alucard! Iʼll play along as your big sis~” Aarae found him very cute.

”Isnʼt he quite the prideful brat? Wanting to order everyone around, hah! Alright, show us what you planned then!” Valentia laughed.

”YOUUUU! YOUʼRE ALL TO BLAME FOR THISSSSS!”

The agonizing fragment of the Necrotic Plane Ruler screamed, the Griever swung his giant tentacles against my children, who intercepted his movements rapidly, moving away from danger.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

”Then letʼs begin, my brothers and sisters!”

Alucardʼs eyes shone brightly.
