Strategy
Here's an easy strategy for defeating the King of the Underworld (aka Vakis Grojis):
Vakis Grojis (aka King of the Underworld)
Use Ryle, Denoas, Golban, and Rumil.
You have to have 3 sections in your Deadliness Gauge to start. Dynast Rays should be cast immediately.
This is the key to the fight (and what makes it cheesy) because it reduces the boss's stamina by 70.
Each time Denoas comes up, use Aura Impulse to drop his stamina 5 or 7.
Each time Rumil comes up, use Accelerator to boost the group's stamina.
After the boss's armor is gone, keep Assault Rage up with Ryle, and simply dps with Ryle and Golban, continuing to use Aura Impulse with Denoas and Accelerator with Rumil.
If done right, the boss should not get a turn whatsoever! If he gets close (he tends to catch up near the end of the fight), another Dynast Rays will buy you a huge amount of turns.
Tip from MSG Commander: If your Deadliness Gauge is not filling fast enough to use Dynast Rays repeatedly, make sure you've got a couple of Tupsimati or Megin Gjord equipped. If that still doesn't do it, try using Brave Force - or, if you have any, use Secret Potion of Battle.
Reward
The first time he's defeated, he yields a Soul of the Underworld accessory, attack strength 100, defense 15%, weight -10, HP +500, battle spirit, and evil mood, giving higher critical damage and deadlines gauge increases.
He also drops Testament of the King of the Underworld, which is basically an Amulet of Mystery without the sudden death evasion, but added initial damage nullification, attack strength 120, 10% defense, and -8 weight.
The Testament of the King of the Underworld can be obtained any number of times, and they stack (it also adds 240 attack strength instead of 120, probably a glitch).
