On the devastated battlefield, Absoria's power seemed to have become an entity of its own, eclipsing even the sky itself. His uncontrollable energy devoured all light, plunging the earth into a supernatural darkness. Farther away, Maria watched the scene in horror, her gaze fixed on the dreadful aura emanating from her father.
She murmured, terrified: "But… what is this dreadful energy?"
Her voice carried to Nitra, who, hearing her daughter's cry, rushed to her side. Worried, she asked: "Maria, do you know this person with such energy?"
Maria nodded hesitantly before answering: "It's… it's dad."
Nitra stepped back, stunned: "Impossible… he's been dead for a long time."
But Maria had no time to explain further. With a gesture, she transmitted part of her father's memories. The memories passed through Nitra's mind. When she realized the truth, silent tears ran down her cheeks.
"It really is that idiot…" she murmured, between anger and sadness.
Meanwhile, Absoria, consumed by rage and raw energy, fought his two enemies, Kamiora and Hylde, with ferocity. Kamiora, caught off guard, lost an arm under an unstoppable strike. In response, he invoked a sacred sword, a weapon inherited from his master. With a dark whisper, he activated Vélgatri, a mystical skill allowing him to channel the essence of justice coming from all dimensions and the universe itself. With this energy, his sword became capable of canceling any form of regeneration.
At his side, Hylde invoked another skill, Perpectuacte, which allowed him to absorb the energies of cataclysms from parallel dimensions. His spear, Velsovia, absorbed the energies of the stars from nearby galaxies, becoming a weapon of cosmic destruction.
Faced with these growing threats, Absoria, aware of the imminent danger, demanded from Stellearte: "What is the probability of survival?"
Stellearte's voice resonated within him: "The probability of survival of your essence is 73%, owner, even if your physical body is destroyed. As long as your authority over the void remains, you can recreate a body."
Absoria nodded, relieved in a way. "And the probability of survival of the others?"
Stellearte paused.
Absoria, turning to her inwardly, demanded: "Isn't there a way to counter this attack?"
After a silence, Stellearte replied: "Yes… it would be possible to resist with an equal or greater energy."
Absoria frowned. "And where can I find such energy?"
Stellearte hesitated before proposing an unexpected solution: "If you allow me, I can take possession of your body."
Absoria, without hesitation, accepted. Meanwhile, Kamiora and Hylde launched a combined attack, the destructive energies heading straight toward Absoria. Stellearte, now mistress of Absoria's body, raised her hand and spoke a mysterious word: Azmelia.
Time suddenly froze.
Kamiora and Hylde, struck with terror, became motionless with fear, while Stellearte spoke a second word, Cafuge, and a series of interdimensional portals opened, each leading to different dimensions, to extract their energy.
Kamiora's gaze betrayed panic as he tried to understand. "What are you, really?" he shouted.
But Stellearte, silent, began absorbing the energies of every dimension. All movement stopped around them.
Meanwhile, Melia, on her way, felt the strangeness of the phenomenon, realizing that everything seemed to have stopped around her.
In another dimension, a mysterious being watched the scene. A portal suddenly opened in his domain, and another being appeared. His eyes were icy and piercing.
"What are you doing here, Kalede, god of malice and envy?" demanded the being of that dimension, Velgia, the god of space and time.
Kalede replied with a mocking smile: "It's not very polite to watch the show with such a serious look, Velgia."
But Velgia, without answering further, lunged at him in rage. "You're the one who condemned my student, Kamiora, to certain death!" he shouted.
Kalede smirked provocatively and parried the attack, but Velgia raised his hand and, with a swift motion, sent Kalede back into the eastern skies. Determined to save his student, Velgia discovered a rift across the dimensions, determined to intervene to save Kamiora and Hylde from the disastrous outcome of their battle.
