Otherworld Invaders

The otherworld invaders are assassins from a world outside of Raphtalia's World and Glass' World. Their goal is to gain the powers and loot gained by destroying other worlds.

Overview
The otherworld invaders are a group of highly skilled assassins from their self-proclaimed "strongest world." They have destroyed at least one world - S'yne's world - by killing all of its Legendary Heroes. As a "bonus" of destroying a world, the otherworld invaders have gained an incredible amount of experience and abilities such as their resurrection ability. This makes the invaders an incredibly tough opponent to face against if not for their arrogance. The invaders Naofumi has encountered have not been Vassal Heroes, but the Vassal heroes of the invader's world seem to be in on the world-destroying venture.

Since they are responsible for destroying her world, S'yne had named them her arch-enemies and attempted to protect Raphtalia's world from these otherworldly invaders.

Volume 11
Naofumi first these otherworldly invaders when the shamshir wielder ambushed him with a surprised. Naofumi was just barely able to defend his attacks and was only saved thanks to S'yne appearing and the fact that the man's magic nullifying also nullified the curse which significantly reduced Raphtalia's stats. They killed the man but his corpse faded away.

Later on, the same man and his kusarigama-wielding friend fought Naofumi and his party again for revenge. However, the heroes were more prepared this time. S'yne was able to nullify their abilities and the party was able to land devastating combos. The two invaders decided to retreat and attack another time.

Only a few minutes later, after Naofumi's party had defeated Ren and his curse series weapons, the two invaders come to kill the Sword Hero. While Naofumi and his party were about to hold off the arrogant invaders, Motoyasu appeared with his power-ups and was easily able to defeat both of the invaders by himself. To prevent the invaders from resurrect another time, Raphtalia used a soul-slicing skill to kill the two permanently.
