"Amelia...are you okay?" Mika said in a worried tone, as Amelia and others searched for something harmful for them to hurt themself, or death in the worst scenario. As Mika followed Amelia's sight and saw the dead body, she felt something, a strange adrenaline running inside of her blood, and she had no idea why. Mika was about to go near to it but with a crowd of legions, it's hard to go there.

Suddenly, she heard a voice of the chants, from afar, and from Amelia, chanting of hatred, and soon she looked at Tomioka, Emilia Queen, and Hanna Queen, they did the same thing too. But there's someone who was not with them. Mika searches, turning her head to figure out who is not with her.

A chant from afar, a forbidden chant that no one knows and no one is willing to acknowledge it, and no one is willing to hear this dark sentence. The words from the lineage of the reverend, the words that only give hatred...and flames.

The words keep looping, and it gets closer to where Mika and the rest of the group are.

----------\/----------

Mika turned her head to the sound of it, It was Anasthasia Suzuki, with her beautiful white hair and her red fiery eyes, holding the spear of one of her heirlooms, smiling eerily while chanting, she walked towards the legions. 

The legions, orcs, and goblins didn't notice, but they turned around when she got closer to them. But as they were about to turn their heads, she swung her spear like a sword and gripped it on its tail. And as for that, she runs faster and slashes their necks and heads, splits their body like cutting the meat and mincing them.

As Mika witnesses horror towards Anastasia, she realizes Amelia and the others have gone, following Anastasia, charging toward one target, the Death's Jester: the same chant, the same rage, the same target, the same nightmare.

Mika stands up, and looks around the scenery, realizing that it's not just them, because she saw millions of souls appear as the cinders and the same chants voiced multiple times.

Out of the blue, Elyssa screeched. It echoed almost a whole universe can hear, it's a calling. Takeru stares at her from above. "Oi...let's end this game, will ya?"

Elyssa stares back at him, maintaining her stoic expression. As Takeru looked at it, he saw someone beside her, almost like a ghost. He finally smiles satisfactorily, as if someone has returned from death. "Akira...Akira...Akira..." he said, seeing a ghost of Akira next to Elyssa.

Elyssa soon flies towards Takeru with a battle cry, descending like a fallen angel, while her children and her relatives purge the legions, the orcs, and the goblins. 

Takeru dodges back as Elyssa lands on the ground and tries to strike Takeru. After he dodges, he instantly swings his blade in the air, aiming Elyssa's neck. Suddenly, the ghost of Akira grabs his hand, not letting him penetrate her neck like he did to Akira. Soon, Elyssa felt the blade of Takeru radiating on her rear, she immediately spun herself and knocked Takeru's face with her blade handle.

As Takeru stands up again, Elyssa is in her stance, the stance of the Dark Matter. Her blade is on her back as she rises above her arms, and she summons another one and lowers it next to her leg. She covers her face with her cybernetic mask, voicing her chants of reminding chant to Takeru. He then grins calmly, countering the stance as well. 

Both of them walk slowly and firmly, but in seconds legions gather around Takeru as they protect him from death: a whole army, more than a hundred, more than a thousand. Elyssa saw the crowds, yet she still walked toward him. Every step she, one ratio of a hundred legions killed from her wind strike, without even swinging. Suddenly, Takeru makes his first strike by swirling on his knees while swinging his blade. Elyssa managed to avoid it by jumping a few steps back and flipping, with her arm straightened above her head, letting the weight follow the gravity from her flip. 

As she lands, she stares at him as Takeru manages to stand and swing his blade onto her. She blocks it and keeps parrying every swing he does. The sword dance, which has been long forgotten, has been recognized once more, for the final time. 

Every hit, every spark, shout to shout, sweat to sweat, their relentless fight is more with an art of dying. Every move to them is predictable, every swing is on point, and every parry is perfectly blocked.

As they are on their blade-lock, face-to-face with each other, the intense aura between them. "I see you're in your lover, your bride....Akira...Akira...Akira..." Takeru said as he also saw the Ghost of Akira next to her with the same intense berserk face.

As she screams...

Things went dark...

Lisa wakes up in the middle of the grass, cinders, and ashes dancing among the air, black smoke flies into the universe, and the smell of the burned. Her body aches hard, not knowing what happened to her. But the only she remembers is she fought Takeru. Yet, what she saw is.................nothing.

"Hello?"

....

"Amelia? Anita?" she called. Her desperation begins to ignite. Her sense of longing begins to be embraced, making her feel the anxiety of losing. What she saw is ruins, dried grass, craters, and bodies.....dead...bodies.

"AMELIA?! ANITA!? MY DEARS?!" she said, her eyes tearing. "EMILIA? MAX?! MELANIA!!!!??? HANNA?! MIKA!!!!!!! TOMIOKA!!!!!?????" she screamed.

The land without life. Nothing. She fell to her knees, burst into tears, and screamed as loud as she could. Someone who she loves and is loved by her has nowhere and no more to be seen. Then, she lies down, curling her body like a ball with regrets. Knowing that just killing Akira is a bad idea.

Soon, an entity walks towards her, wearing a hood that covers her face, blinded by someone who saw it. It kneels and caresses Lisa's head to calm her down. "It's okay, Lisa. It is done,"

"E-Elyssa?" her voice hints of hope as she recognizes the voice of the entity.

She glares at the entity as it opens her hood, it is indeed Elyssa, with her same white short hair and yellow eyes, and smiles at Lisa. Lisa immediately hugged her as she thought she was alone. "I-I thought I lost...everything..."

"No, it's not over yet,"

"Not...over?"

"Listen to the words of your children,"

As Lisa tried to understand what Elyssa said, she heard the voice of Anita. She softly chants the words over and over again. A chant of the Great....reset.
