Strongest Grimoire Of The Gods

As the boss room door continued to open ever so slowly, everyone sat around for about ten more minutes. They chatted to themselves about everything they had to go through up until this point.

The unique hardships and horrifying experiences of a friend were always hilarious to listen to because, in the end, everyone understood that those times were now over and they were still intact.

Laughing over them gave both parties a feeling of well-being, which was some of the only stuff working to keep many Hunters sane.

Their conversations were filled with personal issues as well, but this was expected since such high stakes were proposed today.

Tyr already knew the background of all of his squad members, but hearing them again was always interesting and mostly unpleasant.

This was because they all for the most part weren't lucky in life.

Yurin was orphaned from a young age, eventually taken in by an unknown bandit who wanted a son to do his dirty and measly work for him.

After growing up well into his teens, his father died. Yurin wasn't upset about it much, since his father was an abusive piece of shit.

But still, that man was the only one he had left. And now, he was left with nothing except for an undying passion for creating weapons to get even stronger.

He somehow ended up in Ultimatum, which changed his life up until this point.

Tyr didn't deem Cyllia's story to be any better. Even worse, in fact.

She grew up in a brothel, pretty much orphaned since her mother was never in the picture and was too busy having fun…

She was destined to be a prostitute when she reached the ripe age of 12.

After two years of sexual abuse and trauma, she managed to escape and followed a life of thievery and petty crime in the streets before finally becoming a Hunter and joining Ultimatum.

Jonas had a calmer life. He was lucky to have both his mother and father in his life. His upbringing was humble, his mother was a stay-at-home mom and his father was a part of the Seris Imperial Army.

From early on he learned good lessons like helping others in need, and joined Ultimatum as a route to achieve his goals of being the best person he possibly could.

Finally, Urvil's story wasn't nearly as pleasant. She grew up on a farm on the outskirts of Seris.

Throughout her life, she had multiple step-parents and was eventually raised by 3 different siblings--one always leaving after reaching a certain age to do something with their own life.

Her sister who was 5 years older than her was the last one to leave her all alone only at the age of 14, where she lived in poverty for a few more years until finally becoming a Hunter and joining Ultimatum.

Everyone always liked to joke about their backgrounds.

"Hell, if it wasn't for Ultimatum we would all probably be dead in some ditch right now! Hahah!" Yurin said as he laughed his ass off.

"Yeah! It must have been fate that tied all of us together!" Cyllia added in the funny moment.

There was a new joke that Ultimatum had now about their backstories. This joke was exactly about 3 months long...

"All of us have our stories, and then there's Tyr who apparently just appeared in this world out of nowhere!" Jonas shouted as everyone laughed and chuckled to themselves.

Tyr thought to himself as he laughed: 'If only you knew that's actually what happened...'

The only ones who weren't laughing were Hanzo and Urvil.

Hanzo looked to be taking a light nap, but really he was deep in thought. 'Today was too close of a call.' He hated it when his squad members were injured.

Urvil was still a bit shaken up it seemed, so that explained why she wasn't laughing.

After becoming mentally prepared, the mood not so dark as it was just a few minutes ago, everyone readied their weapons and entered the final boss room.

"This room is supposed to be the last one guarding the treasure room. Be wary... do not lose your guard no matter what." Hanzo said as he walked inside.

...

The others were right behind him, Urvil having also recuperated after what happened. Although her body language still seemed very nervous, she promised herself that she was prepared.

Holding tightly onto her staff, she walked forward into the boss room with everyone else.

As soon Tyr got inside, he noted what type of room this was.

It was a giant chamber made of stone again that wasn't smooth and modern looking.

It was a round, seemingly naturally formed cavern that was over 500 feet in width and 70 feet in height.

The inside looked like a type of natural ginormous terrarium filled with plants that grew up to the very top of the cavern room.

Giant thick stems as hard as tree trunks but quadruple in size were everywhere, along with various smaller types of plants--making this place a labyrinth of invisible spots.

It was hard to move around in. Ultimatum all had their weapons out and guards up as they slowly traversed the area.

Several piles of what seemed to be human bones were sometimes seen in random places.

Various hardened scales were left behind all over the place, along with what seemed to be dried debris.

Small birds and other critters were roaming around as well, making it seem like you were outside for a moment.

The room was covered in bright orange crystals, giving the effect of a real sun over the room.

Hanzo rose to a vantage point on one of the stems. The rest of Ultimatum quickly split up, climbing other vines and searching the area as well.

They all saw a unique area at the very back of the room.

It was a giant nest placed at the bottom of the mangrove of tightly knitted vines and leaves.

Inside of it was a large egg the size of a watermelon. It was covered in blue and purple scales--the cracks seeping with bright energy.
