Arata's Cruelty
Arata's psychic grip crushed Keisuke's arm like dry twigs. Yoshito slammed into the earth, bones cracking. Nero's blue flames flickered weakly as Arata tossed Ledger's severed limb at his feet.
"Run, and I wouldn't have come," Arata sighed, adjusting his collar. "Your fault, really."
When Yui come to aid, Nero sends her away with a Teleport-scroll—tears in his eyes as she vanished.
"Smart," Arata applauded. "Now… shall we dance?"
Symphony of Souls
Nero fought like a cornered star—Blue Flames met Psychokinesis in explosions that scarred the earth. Arata taunted him:
"Your mother was a lovely witch. Shame your father didn't live to enjoy her."
Rage ignited Nero's Symphony of Flames. The attack seared Arata's soul, leaving him shuddering.
"Impressive!" Arata laughed, impaling Nero's gut. "But this ends with moonlight." He raised a dagger glowing with celestial poison.
One stab would unravel Nero's very being.
The Twins' Trial
Nero's consciousness fractured. Before him sat two throned figures—mirrors of himself, one clad in cosmic white, the other in bleeding shadows.
"Accept death," Shadow-Nero sneered. "Or jump into eternal torment to save your friends."
"Reviving the dead… impossible," Nero rasped.
"You've done it," White-Nero reminded softly. "The forest lives because of you."
Nero jumped.
Ayumi's Betrayal
Reality snapped back. Nero's body blazed with borrowed power—crushing Arata's arm, healing wounds.
"Now* we fight!"* Nero roared.
Arata faltered. Nero's seals crippled his regeneration. Victory neared—
THUNK.
A dagger plunged into Nero's back. He turned.
Ayumi.
Her eyes were vacant, tears cutting through blood and ash. "You killed everyone… MONSTER!"
She stabbed again. Through his heart.
"No… Ayumi…" Nero choked, collapsing at the cliff's edge above the Eye of Destruction.
"Die like the traitor you are!" she screamed, slashing his throat.
Arata's smile was a death warrant as she shoved Nero into the abyss.
The dying body of Nero releases blue flames that cover his friends and vanishes. we hear Arata screaming "Don't let them escape".
Aftermath: Lies and Graves
Aryavarta celebrated Nero's fall. Arata spun lies:
"Nero murdered Ledger! Used your classmates as shields!"
Bounties painted Nero's friends as criminals.
Meanwhile, in a mountain cave we sees those flames from earlier, reviving his friends:
Yoshito sobbed into his hands, clutching Nero's amulet.
Keisuke carved a grave for Ledger, jaw clenched.
Miku whispered, "When will Big Brother come back?"
The amulet—Nero's final gift—glowed faintly. Sixty percent of his soul powers, guarding her.
Eri's Sacrifice
Nero fell through hell. The Moonlight Dagger's poison devoured his soul.
In his spiritual core:
Dark Twin sacrificed himself to stall the poison. "Live… for us…"
Eri fought Nero's soul-barrier, burning her essence to reach him. "I LOVE HIM!"
Her grandfather merged their souls—Eri's body dissolving as she became part of Nero.
On the central throne, White Twin smiled. A queen had arrived.
Final Image:
Nero's body lies broken in a demon village, Eri's spirit curled in his chest. White Twin watches from the throne as a third seat materializes—cracked, but waiting.
The betrayal's echo is now a storm. Ready for the fallout. 💔🔥
