Finally, the hundredth floor. Jaune could have arrived here a lot sooner if he didn't have things to do on the surface. Plus, Jaune didn't like spending too much time inside the dungeon unless he was with Scáthach.
"So…this is the hundredth floor?" Jaune said. "This place is underwhelming. I thought there would be more, but instead, all it is, is a massive empty room. Then again, it probably means there would be some sort of powerful enemy".
"That could be possible," Scáthach said. "Come, let's head to the centre of the room. Maybe that's the trigger to spawn the Monster Rex of this floor".
Jaune, Scáthach and Haruhime walked towards the centre of the room. As Scáthach thought, the Monster Rex spawned when they reached the centre. Jaune, Scáthach and Haruhime were shocked at the Monster Rex of the hundredth floor because it looks exactly like Jaune, except that it had horns and a tail. Scáthach can tell that its power is only below hers by looking at the Jaune look-alike.
"Finally, you're here," Jaune look-alike said to Jaune. "The dungeon knew it wouldn't take you long to reach this point. I was created solely to eliminate you. For the past few months since your arrival, the dungeon had weakened the Monster Rex of all other floors to create me. The dungeon found you a threat, yet, also an opportunity to evolve. I'll be the Monster Rex of the 100th floor from this day forward. You may call me Demon Lord".
"Interesting," Jaune said. "Can I assume since you have my face, you also have my abilities?".
"That's right," Demon Lord said. "All the technique you used during your time in the dungeon has been recorded and injected into me. I can execute it with the same level of proficiency as you".
Jaune looked at Scáthach and Haruhime. The two women knew what Jaune intended to do. So, they stepped back. Jaune wants to fight the so-called Demon Lord on his own to push himself to a greater height of power.
As the fight started, Demon Lord used (Demon Sealing Strike) from the get-go to immobilize Jaune. However, Jaune's Demon Sealing Aura was far more powerful than Demon Lord's Demon Sealing Aura, negating it. Jaune then demonstrated to Demon Lord the real (Demon Seal Strike). Demon Lord could not dodge the attack, which caused his hand to turn into stone. To deal with it, Demon Lord cut off his hand and regenerated it.
The fight was intense. Haruhime had to deploy (Great Barrier of the Black Turtle) to prevent her and Scáthach from being blown back due to the pressure of Jaune and the Demon Lord's exchange.
Watching the battle between Jaune and Demon Lord, Scáthach was smiling. She knew that this would elevate Jaune's fighting prowess. Scáthach was eager for the day Jaune beats her in a fight. She then shook her head to get the thought out of her mind.
Jaune and Demon Lord are on equal footing. Or at least that's what Demon Lord believes. Jaune never used his best when he was going through the dungeon. Yes, Demon Lord is physically as strong as Jaune. However, he doesn't have all Jaune's techniques, such as (Tsubame Gaeshi), (Wind Sense), (Lay Adimos) and other abilities.
At the end of the fight, Jaune prevailed against the Demon Lord. Jaune combined (Tsubame Gaeshi) and (Demon Sealing Strike). This caused Demon Lord to have no room to retreat, block, parry or attack. Demon Lord was so surprised by the technique when he tried to parry. He realized that other sword strikes would hit him. When he tried to block, he had the same problem. There was nothing he could do. Demon Lord was struck three times, and he instantaneously turned to stone and crumbled into dust.
As Demon Lord died, the dungeon started to shake stronger and stronger every second. Adventurers from the upper floor to the lower floors felt the shaking. Panic was what everyone was feeling. On the 100th floor, new stairs to descend appeared. However, Jaune, Scáthach and Haruhime had no desire to go deeper. Jaune was already able to achieve what he came here for. The trio ascended and returned to the store.
A week later, Jaune, Scáthach and Haruhime were ready to leave. A few days ago, Jaune said goodbye to Hephaestus, who then asked him where he was going. Jaune told her that he would leave Orario and travel the world for a while.
Alice then told Jaune that what he did was unnecessary since the world would be stasis. This info was forgotten by Jaune over the few months he was in DanMachi.
"Are you girls ready to leave?" Jaune asked. Haruhime nodded. She didn't have a fox tail or ears due to transformation magic. Scáthach didn't have any opinion on the matter. "Well then, let's head back to my homeworld".

A bright light engulfed the trio, they were gone from Orario, and they were back in Jaune's dorm in Beacon. Haruhime looked around and found a window. She looked outside, and she saw a magnificent view. It was nothing like Orario, and she even saw a flying steel dragon. While Haruhime was looking at the view, Pyrrha, Ren and Nora were behind the dorm's door.
"Look, I'm just saying that Jaune might be in the dorm with a girl," Nora said. "And that's the reason he didn't want to go to Vale with us".
"Nora, Jaune barely leaves Beacon," Ren said. "The only time he went to Vale was when he was with Team RWBY, and that's to help them. Besides, Jaune hasn't shown any interest in anyone".
"Pyrrha, what do you think?" Nora asked. "If we open this door, do you think Jaune would have a girl with him?".
"I don't think that Jaune is the type of person to bring a girl he just met in the dorm," Pyrrha said. "He isn't a promiscuous person".
"I guess you're right," Nora said. "He does seem to train with most of his free time. Oh! What about if Jaune isn't interested in women, but men?!".
"Definitely not!" Pyrrha said out loud. "I mean, I don't think Jaune swings that way".
"Pfft!" Nora laughed. "You're just saying that because you have a crush on Jaune".
"W-What?! I don't know what you're talking about," Pyrrha said. She then saw Nora with one of her eyebrows raised in a questioning look. "Is it that obvious?".
Nora nodded her head and opened the dorms room. Inside, the trio saw Jaune with two women, one blond and the other with purple hair. In Pyrrha's eye, they were leagues above her in figure and looks. Nora was smiling since she saw Haruhime in a maid outfit and Scáthach in a skin-tight suit.
"I knew it!" Nora shouted. "See! I told you he was with women in our dorm!".
"Hey, Nora," Jaune greeted. "What's with the shouting?".
"I'm shouting because I was right!" Nora said. "You're really in the dorm with women! Though, I only thought that you would be with one, not two".
"Huh? Oh! We're not doing that kind of things with each other," Jaune said. "Let me introduce you guys. The blond is Haruhime, and the other one is Scáthach".
"Haruhime, these people are my friends," Jaune said. "The man with a pink streak on his hair is Ren, the shorty is Nora, and the last one is Pyrrha".
"Hello. How do you do?" Haruhime said. "As Jaune said, my name is Sanjouno Haruhime. First name Haruhime and last name Sanjouno".
"I'm Scáthach," Scáthach said. "You don't have to introduce yourselves to me. I've already met you all before".
"We have?" Nora asked. "But I don't remember seeing you before, and I never forget a face".
"Scáthach has been with me here at Beacon from the beginning," Jaune said. "She's normally hidden in my shadows".
Scáthach then leaves the place by entering Jaune's shadows. Nora, Pyrrha and Ren were amazed that she could do that.
"How about Haruhime?" Nora said. "Has she been in your shadow as well?".
"No, Haruhime is someone that has never been to Beacon," Jaune said. "Can you guys show her around Beacon? I have to speak with Glynda and Ozpin regarding her presence here".
Jaune texted Glynda on the number that she texted him on. He texted that he had something to speak to them about. Glynda told him to meet at Ozpin's office in ten minutes. Jaune agreed, and he made his way to the top. Meanwhile, Ren, Nora, and Pyrrha were talking to Haruhime.
"So, are you interested in Jaune?" Nora outright asked. "And what's with the maid outfit?".
"I don't know how I feel about Jaune. He's helped me a lot, and I don't know if my feelings for him are real or if it's just because of the help he's given," Haruhime said. "As for the maid outfit, it's a combat suit. It is capable of tanking powerful blows without the wearer getting hurt".
"Jaune made that?!" Nora said. "I didn't know he was capable of making something that awesome. Hey, Ren? Do you think Jaune would make me a combat suit like Haruhime's if I asked?".
"Maybe. We won't know unless we ask," Ren said. "But with the way Jaune is, the chances of him making one for you would be high, I think".
Ren, Pyrrha and Nora then brought Haruhime throughout Beacon. They brought her to the gym, training room, cafeteria and the bullhead port. After showing Haruhime around Beacon, Nora, Ren, and Pyrrha invited her to Vale. She told them that she didn't have any money with her. The trio said it was fine and they would pay for her. They then left and headed to Vale.
