The ambient energy stopped moving, the area under the new do was saved from the destructive attack, and in this calm, all could witness the new individual.
With two fingers directed forward, Gloria was standing.
Solaria’s jaw widened, her throat releasing the most heartbreaking scream possible.
Maybe it was an illusion, maybe they were already dead, it didn’t matter.
She forgot everything about the battle, the danger, all that mattered was that a death mother was right there, right in front of her.
She jumped, with one swift move to Gloria’s stomach, embracing her with the full power of her arms.
Everyone watched, speechless, the scene was too surreal.
Gloria’s hand descended on Solaria’s head, she caressed her hair with care, she smiled at her.
It wasn’t a dream, the feeling was real, she was there.
"It hasn’t been a day, did you miss that much?"
Her bright smile illuminated Solaria’s face, her voice breaking through her tears.
"Mom... Mom!!!"
"Majesty!!!!"
In an instant, the Queen had all the maids stuck to her neck, torso, and legs, all screaming in tears her na.
".... Girls... I missed you too... But I really need... To move."
"What’s the point? Trying to act tough?"
A new voice rose from behind, everyone turned to the direction, and their eyes shone.
"You had the most pathetic death, so don’t bother putting a facade now." Rhea observed the surroundings.
This ti, Giudecca and Lucca’s gasp took over the maids’ cries.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH"
Lucca’s head was re centiters away from Rhea, but the next mont, she was on the ground, dodged like a bullet.
"Focus, this is still a battlefield."
Despite eating the ground, Lucca stood again with determination, with one step threatening to jump again, then, the ground erupted.
Several light rose from the ground, leaving behind a miracle.
Under the frozen gaze of everyone, 6 legends made their return.
"Good, it worked."
"I know right? We can really trust him!"
Lust and Cleopatra stood next to Liliana and Hope.
"My death was maybe pathetic, but at least it wasn’t a ridiculous suicide."
"Yes, It was suicide. Deliberate, and foolish."
Gloria and Rhea glared at each other, next to Solaria and Rhea.
"... What exactly is going on here? Could soone explain again?"
Next to rcy, Shaka looked around.
"Just go with the flow."
In front of Iris, Candace stood.
All the deceased Sin Avatars were there, at the end of the world, but it wasn’t all.
Next to each of them, a new person was standing, new for many, but very intimate to each Avatar: the Players.
All of them, Charybdis, Ymir, Fenrir, Apophis, Hecate, and Eva in the middle, all appeared again for the greatest stage.
Candace gave a slight nudge to Iris, with a smile for her students.
"You did very well, I’m proud of all of you. Now, leave the rest to the fools acting like Gods."
The do expanded higher, erasing the pressure on its path.
On his side, Dora witnessed the scene dumbfounded, his mouth slightly open.
What was going on? Where and how did they co?
He couldn’t hear his other half for so long, so long that he forgot his existence for second, but in the end, the truth manifested itself.
"This is an historical mont, everyone is finally reunited, it so sad that we have no ti to properly enjoy it, right, Dora?"
Behind Eva, the last light spread into particles, releasing the last Avatar and his Player.
"In the next world, Eva."
"Yes, and we already had enough ti to enjoy each other anyway. Now let’s finish this." Midgard crossed her arms.
Dora gave one gaze to the Pseudo-avatars, all of them were tetanized, more than ever.
They were getting flooded with emotions waiting to explode, and so Dora chose a simple way to explain everything.
"I told you that I didn’t chose this place for no reason. This was the attack still charging."
His eyes glowed, sa as the other Avatars and the Players.
His words made little sense, the people around them triggered too much emotions in the Pseudo-avatars, but they had learned too many tis to focus on the mission over the emotion.
"Are you ready?" A voice erged from light, gathering to form a figure, familiar to everyone.
Zury stood alongside him and Midgard.
"For over an eternity. Go ahead."
Their aura amplified, mixing with Dora’s own power, the Sin’s Avatars fused with the world.
Zury’s eyes glowed black, her pointy teeth appearing under her grin.
"You wanted my power? Now, enjoy it. Corruption"
A black flash took over Dora’s pressure, devouring it and reaching him in an instant.
He couldn’t see it coming, he could only feel it already inside of him.
The flash struck him, covering his body in glitches.
He kept the very sa position, tetanized by the turn of tables.
He was ready for anything, until Zury’s death, he was cautious of anything, and he was sure that he wouldn’t have made a mistake by killing her without a clear plan.
The Personas and Dora were surprised, so how did this single choice lead to this?
Above him, several stars shone brightly, the Avatars, the Players, and the Pseudo-avatars all together.
With corruption, Dora’s pressure completely lifted, making it possible to fight again.
Everyone shared the consciousness of the true Dora, as one person, and so, the mystery unveiled.
Everything that happened in this battle, every decision Dora made, was to reach this outco.
They weren’t in any dinsion, it was a world connected with every other worlds, a world both reachable and inaccessible.
It was a mind space created by the Original Dora, literally, it was every Dora’s mind.
Gloria, keeping Solaria against her, pointed two fingers together.
"You’re very strong, but this is how you use Gluttony."
With tears in her eyes, the Princess nodded, imitating her mother.
Both fired a giant orange beam on Dora.
The boy suffered once again an intense ti lag, with the mory reaching him.
He didn’t avoid the blast and disappeared in it, he recovered control of his body in the blast and imdiately teleported above, and as he did, the mory kept resurfacing.
The mind space being literally Dora’s mind, with the power of the True Origin, he was able to repeat a miracle he had already made, summon the owners of the souls in him, the Avatars, the Players, but even...
"Hero Ti"
"Dragon Tooth"
A blinding light fell on him from above, while a red cot rushed his back.
Every soul he possessed was a person that Dora could summon, and so two heroes from their ti appeared.
Hope and rcy’s soul left their bodies as Peters and Elizabeth launched a joint attack on Dora.
The explosion lightened the sky, with both of them on each side of Dora, their weapons piercing him.
"GUH... How tough is he?!"
"Just keep spamming, rember the plan!"
Dora glared at Elizabeth, he grabbed their weapons and took them off effortlessly.
His aura exploded, spreading to them with the power to erase them in instant, but the ti stopped for him again.
Above him, Lilith, Ymir and Wrath, with gigantic size, fell, a glowing fist in front.
The earth quaked, with a gigantic shock wave spreading around the world.
Elizabeth and Peters found themselves flying away, but not because of the explosion, but because of their siblings on their stomach.
"W-w-wait! Hey, rcy! The fight isn’t over!"
rcy was like hypnotized, squishing her brother in her arms.
He wanted to grab her by the shoulders to tell her to focus, but her power was monstrous and crushed his abdon.
"Ueh.... UHHF... EHCHY.... EEECH... YYYY!!! Not... OVER!!!"
rcy’s tears flew in the air, she released him and stared straight into his eyes.
"... I Know it’s not over, but you’ll listen to !!! You know what kind of hell I’ve lived because you left?! How much I suffered?!! How could you sacrifice yourself!!!"
(.... Dora, maybe I don’t want to fight anymore.)
She struck her head against his chest, her body trembled, but her aura was surprisingly getting calr than usual.
She looked at him again, with tears in eyes, but a slight smile.
"I really did a lot... Because I wanted to follow your path... But you didn’t even wait to see ... Stupid brother."
Her tears flew next to Peters, the man watching his sister pushed a deep sigh.
He brought her against his chest, hugging her as they fall.
"I didn’t wish to die, I just wanted to protect you from this bullshit. Y’saw how crazy that Queen was?"
"... Yep... I fought her..."
".... Damn, you’re even worse than . You think I should praise you? Get back on earth, to , you’re the greatest... y’know how these 3 mocked because of ya? Stop being so strong, or you’ll end up being the big sis in the next world."
"... I don’t care what I’ll be, but you’re already screwed. I’ll be a real pest for you."
"Ha, more than now? I can’t wait to see that. Good job, you really impressed ."
They closed their eyes, the ground getting closer to them.
"... By the way, what’s the thing with Dora? He said like you injured him more than any opponent, what was that?"
".... You want to see happy?"
On Elizabeth’s side, Hope grip wasn’t that strong, but like the Sin he represented, its power was in the emotion.
In tears, he shook his head against Elizabeth’s chest, murmuring.
He had a thousand things to tell her, a thousand things he kept in his heart for years, he was fated to never talk about them, but the mont he saw her, he released everything in a single word.
"I’m sorry... I’m so sorry... I’m sorry for everything! Everything I did, everything I said! I’m so sorry!!!"
"... Hope."
He raised his teary eyes.
"I’m so sorry for talking like that to you! I miss you everyday, I want so bad to go back! This is all my fault! Everything is my fault! I’m sorry..."
The crashed on the ground.
He let his head against her chest, uncontrollable.
Elizabeth’s hand touched his head. She gave him a warm smile. There was many things she wished to say, many things they had to talk about together, but the ti was limited.
Further away, Dora erged from the ground, unleashing bolts of light everywhere.
Elizabeth leaned forward and put a kiss on Hope’s forehead.
"Sorry too, I’ve been a bad sister right?"
Hope’s sobs diminished.
"E... Ely..."
"You know already, and I know you. There’s no need for apologies, you are the most important for too. I’ve never left, I was always there and I’ll still be there for you. I saw your fights, I saw your road to reach this place. Listen to well, I will always love you, and in every world I’ll always be your sister. We didn’t have chance this ti, but let’s do better in the next world, ok?"
Hope’s tears increased again, on his knees, he gave her a nod.
Elizabeth grinned and both stood up.
"Now, I want you to give the biggest fight in your life. Show what you can do! Oi, Master, I used hero ti! Fill up!"
Candace appeared next to them, with Iris at her sides.
"What kind of idiot use this move first in a battle? Have you left your brain in the other world??"
"But you’re here, I don’t need to think anymore... Please, Carry ..."
Candace pouted, but soon a smile covered her lips.
"Fine, stupid brat, I’ll show you what I can do. Hey, Iris, look at this, I’ll show you how to use this power."
Dora, with a literal lightning bolt in hand, swung the elent like a weapon, clashing with Rhea.
The two were head to head, then the general disappeared, and his left arm had disappeared.
"Another ti skip?!"
Once again, he lagged in ti, making him an easy target.
Rhea was on Lucca’s back, with Giudecca and Freya.
Giudecca and Freya charging a powerful attack from afar, they had all the ti, and with his ti lagging, he would always take it.
"Take your ti, think of it as the last attack you will launch. You three are my vessels, so don’t fight for you, but for . Imagine this attack as Rhea Silva."
Freya and Giudecca nodded, their purple aura bursting.
Dora tried to teleport, but once again, his power froze.
He watched his arm, cut so effortlessly, and then, he noticed Lust, and Liliana next to each other, both with Dora’s appearance.
"I take his reflexes."
"Ok, mister, I’ll take his stamina then."
Their eyes shone, and both unleashed Dora’s signature move.
"Aurum Serra"
The flash blinded Dora, and following that, Freya and Giudecca unleashed their attacks.
Dora felt his body getting reduced without understanding how.
He kept lagging, he kept forgetting details in battle, his attacks never affected anyone.
He was at his, peak, but he could do nothing.
He didn’t even need to think about it, the truth was getting revealed in a common mory he shared with everyone.
The source of his defeat, the mont he lost, the only move causing his complete loss, because it was the only thing he couldn’t feel.
Several tis during the battle, he forgot details of the battle.
It was an event he was accustod to, a move originated from Gluttony, mory erasure.
He received an incredible amount of ti this attack, he always took it and fought back, but little did he know that the most dangerous variant was coming from elsewhere.
His eyes widened, on the battlefield, everyone was present, all except his other half, Midgard, Marie, and Zury.
He and his other half were one, they shared the sa body, and they could attack everything, even themselves.
"... He erased my mory..."
