Genjuro proceeded with a variety of more collar experiments on Desco many of which were negatives. He had her try a collar that should have increased the power of every attack Desco made but the collar quickly shorted out and exploded after two attacks. It didn't have enough power to pull it off and something about the design didn't quite work. Another Collar should have suppressed Desco's powerful signature moves to more normal move levels but it simply didn't work. This one was a step towards the ultimate goal of making a collar that would be used to imprison Primes but that would take some work before the Empire could stop Primes.
Not every collar after the first couple was a complete failure though. One simply empowered the wearer slightly and another weakened. Desco was set against a punching machine without a collar and with the two collars. Her tentacles struck the the machine and her power changed appropriately with each collar and without one. A useful application of collars but it wasn't a new innovation. Such technology was already available in simpler methods than a modified Dante's Abyss collar but the information would be useful.
Desco happily allowed her father to experiment on her. She wanted nothing more than to help him and it had been such a long time since he had. Even the next experiment she didn't mind at all. "Okay Desco, now this next one is probably going to feel a little strange." Genjuro checked his monitors, ensuring DesX was in her room nearby in case something went wrong. DesX was his most powerful experiment here in the Omniverse, even more powerful than Desco right now due to the limitations Primes seemed to have in their speed of growth. What Desco was about experience could be dangerous if she couldn't defeat it. Genjuro went back to his other data and pulled out the list of samples he could use. Desco was a powerful demon, despite her age.
After some time of shuffling in the unseen mechanical bowels of the lab a yellow robot riding on a single wheel holding a syringe filled with purple liquid in one of its two mechanical hands. "Hello! As instructed by your father, you will need to take this injection! Don't worry, it won't hurt too much!" Desco stretched out one of her tentacles and took the needle. "Okay," Desco gazed at the needle curiously while the robot scurried off back into safety. She moved it to one of her hands and stuck it in her other arm, injecting the liquid into her body. She looked at the injection site, and tossed away the needle.
Inside her body, the liquid was already growing in sophistication. What it was, was a small culture of Zerg infestation parasites in their earliest stage. They would normally bet stuck into their victims at a higher maturity one at a time. They would require a more traumatic entrance due to size. This process put many into the body and in previous experiments on secondary victims resulted in a much faster and more vicious infestation, but also a lower rate of infestation as the body had a chance to fight off the parasites in its more infantile form. Her body lazily started to fight the parasites. Normally her body did not fight aggressively against infection because infections did not normally manage to even get into cells and would quickly die off from the lack of ability to multiply without host cells. This gave them a chance to spread and grow. It did feel strange to Desco, as the parsites started to grow too large and started to attack and try to take over. However, this was when her immune system really kicked in. Desco felt weird sensations throughout her body. as suddenly her body flooded itself, her red battle aura activating on her own and cells converging on the parasites throughout her. In moments, the parasite infection was gone.
Things were going more or less as Genjuro had expected. He designed Desco's immune system. It couldn't waste time on pointless infections that was the path to developing allergies and wasting energy but at the same time it couldn't let go serious threats. The collars had their hits and misses but nothing substantially different from previous tests. The conclusions he could draw so far were that Desco's body despite the changes was still pretty close to what he had designed and that her experience in Dante's Abyss didn't change the behavior of the collars. It wasn't much but the scientific process didn't produce awe every time. "Good Desco! Now we just have one more thing to do. I've designed some new fucntionality while you were in Dante's abyss, its something I think you'll find quite useful in being a Final Boss!"
Desco got all excited and bouned back flinging out her arms and legs. "Really! That sounds great Daddy! What is it?" Genjuro walked over to a large freezer behind him and pulled out a small glass tube sealed by a cork. He opened it up and popped out the small gel pill inside. It was a simple blue pill but its effect that it would have Desco would be substantially effecting each cell. He left the contained lab to come hand it to her himself. "This will will give you two new abilities. The first will be an ability to sustain damage better. Your body will function no matter how much damage it has taken and you'll have a much higher tolerance for pain." That was of course appropriate to video games where enemies and players alike often had Critical Existence Failure. "The second works off of that ability. When you have taken enough damage that you can't sustain living anymore, your body will self-destruct. But don't worry! Here in the Omniverse as you know already, you come back to life when you die." Desco nodded and smiled. "Just like a real Final Boss!" She was a little more mixed on this one as it did remind her that she wasn't as powerful as she used to be, it was more likely that she would die. But Final Bosses didn't live forever, and often came back for a second run. In that sense, it was the perfect ability for her to go out with a bang.
Genjuro held out his hand and Desco took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation. "Now for our last experiment Desco we need to see this ability in action so we know it works. So are you ready?" Desco shivered a little, she didn't like the thought of dieing but she wanted to help daddy and she did want to know if it would work. "Okay Daddy." Genjuro put one hand in a pocket and stepped back from Desco, activating his battle suit. It was a much simpler system from what he had on Earth, materializing the suit on his body. "Now hold still Desco."
Genjuro summoned the magical energies inside him and the suit acted in turn enhancing and increasing the power he drew out. "Giga Ice!" He held out both of his armored hands and a blue magical sphere appeared around him spinning quickly . The sphere expanded and disappeared, then a magical circle appeared below Desco and a magical ring around her. The circle let out a burst of bubbles into the air. Those water bubbles hung in the hair for a moment, and then in a moment the area changed and the bubbles suddenly solidified into an ice crystal formation catching Desco inside. With the direct hit and after the exhaustion of extinguishing the Zerg parasites, her body had enough. The ice shatted around her, and when the mist settled her body was already starting the process to let off her load bearing ability. Small cells creates small explosions and her body glowed brightly. It was almost surreal to Desco, who didn't feel any pain as it started. Genjuro meanwhile retreated, going to the far side of the room where Desco had entered and opening the hidden wall. It was dangerous to experience this first hand, and he already had a huge variety of sensors collecting data on how powerful the energy she released was. The explosions grew in size and strength, scorching the ground until one final blast was released damaging the ground and the wall closest to Desco. The experiments were complete, for now.

Desco was set against a punching machine without a collar and with the two collars. Her tentacles struck the the machine and her power changed appropriately with each collar and without one.
