Robert sitting in his throne room, had a huge smile on his face seeing how many points he received, although he can buy anything from the system store because he has unlimited system points. To restore the first back to how it was would require 10,000 points, also if he wanted to create a second floor he needed 300,000 points, and Dagon needed to be defeated. Also, if he wanted to construct a new body to leave the tower, he needed 500,000 points.
He already construct a body but he didn't want to get out of the tower and still want to watch how the others progress. Restoring the floor and acquire new floor he already done that since the beggining when he is learning how to create and restore the floors.
Noah, while floating, saw those with weaker magical powers die to scarlet rot. The more magical power they had, the longer they lived. Tony, Natasha, Hawkeye, Captain America and others from Earth Marvel died not too long after entering since they had no magical powers except for spider-woman and Hulk. It might be because of their biological that is different from normal human.
Azazel and Vali were surprised when they first noticed them getting sick and noticed how he and Vali were also getting infected. Azazel tried to help them but didn't have any healing items besides 2 Pheniox tears. When he was contemplating what to do, that's when 2 ladies. 1 being a black-haired and eyed woman, while the other was a beautiful blonde-haired woman, blue rhombus mark on her forehead, and large breasts came and began to heal the group.
Although shizune and Tsunade's healing delayed the sacrlet rot, it couldn't stop it. Tsunade, Shizune, Vali, andAzazel explored as a group when after killing one of the monsters found a few pink ballsand upon eating one they felt the disease infecting them leave their body. Not long After they also discovered the returner stone which could return them to their worlds, the two groups talked and agreed to do some research on the stuff they received and would return back to the tower in 3 days being the only 4 people to leave the tower.
"Honestly I should raise the drop rate of the returner stone and Preserving Bonuses." Instead of restoring the first back to how it was, he used his points to raise the drop rates of a few things, heal Dagon, and add more enemies. Robert felt slightly upset since the people who entered the tower came in recklessly and wasted their energy fighting each other and their enemies. They didn't even explore the entire map or pay attention to the lore and hints he placed. If they talked with a few NPC's then they would learn about Dagon and how the scarlet rot came to this land. He left the storage bags given to the people once they entered, once they died they dropped the bag and if they wanted it they had to go get it before it got stolen. They are given a new bag if they die but it will be empty.
"I wonder how the outside is right now?" Robert wonder how chaotic it will be.

As Sirzechs stepped through the portal back to the Underworld, exhaustion weighed heavily on his body. His crimson eyes searched frantically, and there, standing in the hall, was Grayfia, alive and well. Relief washed over him like a tidal wave. He staggered forward, closing the distance between them in an instant.
"Grayfia..." His voice trembled as he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a tight embrace.
"I'm here, Sirzechs. I'm fine." Grayfia, sensing his distress, rested her hand against his back.
He held her even tighter, burying his face in her silver hair, the fury and fear he had felt moments ago dissolving into pure relief. For a few moments, neither of them said anything, they just stood there, holding on to each other as if the world might tear them apart again.
The two returned together to their mansion, where Ajuka, Serafall, Falbium, and the rest of Sirzechs' family were waiting anxiously. They all rushed forward, bombarding them with questions and checking for injuries. Sirzechs gently waved them off and sat down, still weary from the ordeal.
"Once we reached the area where the boss was we entered and there we saw Dagon. We fought him, but it wasn't enough," Sirzechs began, his tone low but calm.
"Grayfia was killed in the fight, but..." He glanced at her with a small, grateful smile. "But when I found myself alive outside the tower I knew she would be alive also."
Everyone in the room looked at them in disbelief, the weight of what they'd endured sinking in.
"There is also another thing that I want to inform." Sirzech said as they begin to pay attention. "Appareantly this Dagon, is A High-Ranking Demon." His words surprising everyone.
"WHAT!"
"That Dagon is a Demon!" Serafall is surprise Learning this Dagon is a High-Ranking demon.
"Yes, This Dagon is so strong he defeated me and Grayfia like nothing, all of our attacks have no affect on him as he just swiftly kill us both." Sirzech said as they begin to process his words.
"The rules are strict," Sirzechs continued. "Once you die in the tower, you're barred from re-entering for one week. The same applies to us now, we won't be able to go back until the week is over."
Ajuka folded his arms, frowning in thought. "It seems the tower isn't just a threat; it's a game... and it's playing by it's own rules."
Serafall, though concerned, gave them both a bright smile. "Well, what's important is you're both safe. Let's regroup, rest, and figure out what to do next."
Sirzechs nodded, glancing once more at Grayfia. He didn't care what strange game the tower wanted to play-he had her back. That was all that mattered right now.
DC world
The justice league step out of the portal as they return at the Justice League Headquarters battered and worn. Blood stained their contumes and exhaustion clung to them like a second skin. As they were taking breath and sit on the ground the others came to them.
"Superman, Batman, Wonderwoman, you guys." Supergirl and the others rushed forward, wide-eyed at the sight of the heroes alive but barely standing. "What the hell happened? We thought you all are–"
"We fought someone... so strong." Flash intterupted, he is exhausted that he needed to drink water and food, lots and lots of calories.
"A demon name Dagon, he is a highranking demon and he is strong." Zatanna said, she still remember how Dagon kill her by stabbing her in the stomach.
Batman exhaled sharply, adjusting his posture. "Dagon overwhelmed us... all of us. It wasn't just us. All other people that are participating. Even with our combine strength, we couldn't take him down." Batman remember all of his quick strategy to kill Dagon but no matter what Dagon always counter it with brute force, now when he get back to the Batcave he will need contingency plan for Dagon.
"Holy shit, even Superman and Wonder woman lose!" Kid flash would never thought that two of the strongest justice league member got defeated.
"That demon name Dagon is strong, he fights like a warrior that have fought thousands of battle and war." Diana remember how Dagon fought her and superman when everyone is gone. She thought with her combine strength and superman they would win but in the end Dagon defeat them.
"A High-Ranking demon!" Fate said, he never would thought that there would be a demon inside the tower and strong one at that, it seems like he need to get inside that tower.
"Dagon, huh, well it looks like another fucking troublesome demon." Constantine have already dealt many demons but when he face a stronger demon like they deacribe, it will be hard and pain in the ass.
"Shit, it if wasn't for the tpwer rules we would be dead." Hal still remember how Dagon overwhelm him and swiftly decapitated him.
"Regardless we now know how dangerous is the tower and it's rules." Batman begin to stand up.
"Batman you are injured you need to sit down." Mr. Terrific is trying to patch up batman and the others so they can take them to medbay.
"Not yet, We need to prepare. That tower is unlike anything we ever faced before. When the week is up... Dagon will be waiting for us." Batman said, he will also know that Dagon might be under someone's command.
"And this time we will prepare." Superman said as he getting up to his feet.
Marvel World
The Avengers also teleported out of the tower the same as the Justice League, They are teleported out of the tower surprising the others. Now they are gathered in the tower discussing what they have discoverd.
"So," She-hulk said, curious what they discover inside the tower. "What did you find within the tower?"
"That place... it's a damn nightmare. There's some Demon name Dagon and he tore us apart like we were nothing. Every step closer to him made it harder to breathe. The disease whatever it is clung to us, eating away at everything, making it harder to fight." Steve clenched his fists, anger simmering under his breath.
"A Demon?!" Strange is curious because mentioning about a demon. "What's this demon Dagon look like?"
"His... His appareance is not human but humanoid with red skin, claws on both hands and feet and a multitude of spikes protruding from his back." Natasha describe what Dagon looks.
"He also tell us he is a High-Ranking Demon." Jessica said, she remember how fast Dagon suddenly appear behind her even with her spider-sense can't detect his attack.
"I will go to kamar-taj to investigate if there is a demon similiar to this Dagon." Strange said, If there is more demon stronger like dagon in the tower then this tower more Dangerous than he imagined.
"The enemies grew stronger the deeper we ventured into the floor, with hidden treasures and magical artifacts scattered throughout. It felt like the entire environment was a trap, a maze designed to break us. And Dagon himself... impossible to take down without overwhelming numbers. We all died fighting him, yet here we are, alive and back in this world." Tony speaking with a hint of curiosity.
"Magical artifacts!!" Scarlet witch, Dr. Strange, Magik, Iron fist and heroes who are associated with magic and mysticism surprised.
"So there is a possibelity that the tower is involved with magic." Jean said.
"Alive, huh? Ain't that a curious thing... So, ya kick the bucket, and the tower just spits ya out like nothin' happened?" Hank tilted his head and interested.
Natasha nodded. "Exactly. But our spiritual energy and injuries remain, only the disease was cleansed. And it seems that we can't enter again for a week."
"A cruel yet... fascinating Tower." Reed said, now he is eager to enter the tower and uncover it's secrets.
"Reed, not again." Susan sigh in exhaustion of her husband, he is always in his lab doing his research when he discover somesthing. Now he is obsses with the tower, she didn't know how long he will be immersed in his research that he will never get out from his lab.
"So, even death within the tower holds no permanence." Kaine mused. "And Dagon... to face such overwhelming strength and return alive."
"What matters is that the two of you return with valuable information. Your deaths, though regrettable, served a purpose." Carol said.
"If we play this right, we can use the tower to grow stronger to fight. Dagon is only the first floor, there will be more, and I'm curious to see what lies beyond him." Black panther suggested, his mind already racing with possibilities.
"Not just us, I'm sure shield, hydra, doom and other supervillains out there will enter the tower to get stronger and exploit it." Professor X said, he is worry that their enemies are entering the tower to get stronger so they can defeat them.
"Indeed. When the week passes, we will both return to the tower." Steve's gaze sharpened.
"Fine by me. I've got a score to settle with that bastard." Hawkeye adjusted his bow.
"Careful what you wish for barton." Natasha warned him to not get arrogant.
"Hulk want to smash that Puny Demon." Hulk smash his fist to his palm, he and Dagon go toe to toe until Dagon defeat him, this anger hulk and want to smash Dagon.
"We need to Prepare yourselves. This tower is more than just a battlefield... it's an opportunity." Captain cross his arms, the tower will become center of attention of the world whether it is heroes, goverment and villains. There was determination burning in their eyes. The tower had tested them, but next time, they would be ready.
