Twilight Sparkle, her friends, Cuphead and Mugman reappeared outside of Las Pegasus.
"What happened?" Cuphead asked, "I thought you were going to teleport us inside Las Pegasus."
"It's The Devil's magic," Twilight replied, "Discord's magic is unpredictable, it must have thrown off my teleportation spell."
"No time to worry about that now," Applejack said, "we need to find The Devil and stop him."
The others nodded in agreement and, without another word, they all headed into Las Pegasus.
The Devil's Office.
"Boss," King Dice said, "Cuphead, Mugman and their pony friends, they're back."
"Well, you know the drill, Dice," The Devil replied, "Stall them and if you can.....destroy them."
King Dice nodded and turned to leave, "before you go," The Devil added, "A gift, an upgrade if you will."
A small ball of magical energy appeared in his hand.
"Thank you, boss," King Dice said, taking the magical energy and absorbing it into himself, "I won't fail."
With that, King Dice exited the office.
"I hope you don't," The Devil uttered, "like you did last time."
Las Pegasus.
"Trust me," Cuphead was saying, "Mug and I have fought The Devil before so I'm willing to bet that he'll send King Dice to stall us."
"Then we'd better be ready for anything," Twilight nodded.
Applejack was about to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden burst of laugher.
"I'm afraid the boss is unavoidably detained," King Dice declared, as appeared in front of the group.
"I however," he continued, "I have been given orders to destroy you."
"What you?" Rainbow Dash asked, "fight us, by yourself?"
King Dice smiled at Rainbow Dash's confusion, "Who said I was alone?" he replied, King Dice snapped his fingers.
Before ether, the Mane Six, Cuphead or Mugman could react a group enemies materialised in front of them.
These enemies being: Demon bat, Jelly the Octopus, Gentlemen Spider, Betty Beet, Pirouletta and Mangosteen.
"Believe me," King Dice declared, "I am far from alone."
A great slam and then some!
Now go!
With that, the Mane Six, Cuphead and Mugman engaged the enemies.
Rainbow Dash and Applejack took on Betty Beet.
Rarity and Fluttershy took on the Gentlemen Spider and Demon bat.
Pinkie Pie and Mugman took on Jelly the Octopus.
Twilight Sparkle and Cuphead took on Pirouletta and Mangosteen.
All this was happening, while King Dice watched.
"Since when could King Dice summons enemies, like this?" Mugman asked, as he and Pinkie evaded Jelly the Octopus's tentacle attacks.
"It must be The Devil, he must have given him a boost with the magic he stole," Twilight replied, as she and Cuphead dodged Pirouletta and Mangosteen's attacks, Pirouletta with her roulette balls and Mangosteen with his billiard chalk minions and firing blasts of color spectrum orbs.
"Then we'd better take these losers down as quick as possible," Rainbow Dash said, as she and Applejack battled against Betty Beet, doing their best of avoid Betty's mini Beet minion projectiles.
"Rainbow Dash is right," Rarity nodded, as she and Fluttershy did there best to evade Gentlemen Spider's and Demon bat's attacks, Gentlemen Spider attacking with shots of webbing and Demon bat attacking with his bats and his howl, "ever second we spend here fighting King Dice and his compatriots, the closer The Devil is getting to completing whatever he's planning."
"Then we'd better think of something," Cuphead cried, "and fast!"
Mugman, thinking fast, whispered in Pinkie's ear.
Pinkie nodded, the two put their plan in action, Pinkie fired a shot of confetti right into Jelly's eyes, blinding him, while he was distracted, Mugman dashed at Jelly and parry slapped the pink orb atop the enemy's head.
Knockout!
Rainbow Dash and Applejack were the next ones to finish off their opponent, Applejack managed to grab on Betty Beet's projectiles and kicked it right back at her, striking Betty in the face and stunning her.
Before she could recover, Rainbow Dash finished Betty off with quick flurry of attacks.
Knockout!
Rarity and Fluttershy's battle with Gentlemen Spider and Demon bat ended swiftly, Gentlemen Spider fired a shot of webbing at Rarity, just before the webbing hit, Rarity ducked, the webbing instead hit Demon bat, sticking him to the ground, Fluttershy finished off Demon bat with a swift strike.
Knockout!
Rarity followed, finishing off Gentlemen Spider with a quick kick to the face.
Knockout!
Twilight and Cuphead's conflict with Pirouletta and Mangosteen concluded promptly, Cuphead fired his Milk Beam at Pirouletta finishing her off, while Twilight ended Mangosteen with powerful blast of magic.
Knockout!
"Arrr," Twilight remarked, as Mangosteen began to melt into a puddle black ooze, all while vomiting black gunk from his mouth, "that is disgusting."
With all of the enemies dealt with the Mane Six along with Cuphead and Mugman turned to face, the now defenceless, King Dice.
"Alright, Dicey," Pinkie declared, "you've played all your cards."
"Now, give up!" Rainbow Dash cried, "before we bring down the house of cards on top of you."
King Dice laughed, "Oh, I think not," he smiled.
From out of King Dice's sleeves, anthropomorphic playing cards appeared.
"I think you'll find that the deck is always staked in my favour," he smirked.
But before, the cards could attack, they were all dispatched by a blast from the Elements of Harmony.
"I think thats enough tricks out of you," Rarity said, a hint of annoyance in her voice.
King Dice was just about to try another attack, only to be hit by a final shot from both Cuphead and Mugman.
Knockout!
"Forgive me, Boss!" King Dice cried, "I have failed you, once again!"
With that, King Dice collapsed to the ground.
Shortly after, a small ball of magical energy separated from King Dice, which then, headed towards The Devil's Office.
"Come on, girls," Twilight said, "let's go."
"Yeah," Rainbow Dash nodded, "we've got a world and some friends to save, in that order."
And without another word, the Mane Six followed by Cuphead and Mugman hurried off towards The Devil's Office.
