Beautiful music echoed in the entire theater as the screen opened, showing a giant tree with a figure dressed in a white cloak looking over it. 

"Ah, so my hypothesis was correct," The figure said as he removed his hood to reveal the Dark hair of Rex Crozzo that was now almost entirely cyan-green tied into a ponytail in a similar style to Otto Apocalypse's. A pair of Heterochromatic eyes gazed fondly at the imaginary tree as he held his injured side. 

"That's... The Irminsul?!" Nahida whispered. 

"The imaginary tree?" Welt Whispered in disbelief at the sight of the place that only one person had arrived at. 

"Father..." Reena whispered, looking at her father on the screen. 

"Interesting, for someone who never left the planet to have reached that place where almost no one reached," Herta whispered, impressed at the feat. 

Kiana looked at the figure and immediately noticed the similarities and instantly, she knew it was an alternate version of her best friend. 

"Rex,"

"Anemo," Cerberus whispered, looking at the strongest version of all Archon versions of 'Rex Crozzo',

Suddenly, the young man fell to a knee as the cyan-green parts of his hair dimmed a bit. "Not yet..." The young man whispered as he pushed himself back up and walked towards the imaginary tree. 

"I sacrificed too much to fail here..." The young man gritted out as he took each step. "My brothers, my friends, our mission," The young man whispered as he walked towards the tree. "It's not fair... that..." 

An image of a beautiful young woman with white hair and blue eyes who smiled as she took the last scoop of his ice cream. 

"That... you're all alone in there..." The figure whispered as memories fueled his desire. "It must be so hard for you..."

The image made those who lost their loved ones remember

 theirs. Zhongli remembered the time he lost Guizhong. Ei remembered Makoto and all the times they spent together and more. 

Asta saw this and tears fell from her eyes. It was a beautiful thing to see such devotion. Bronya remembered her mother, Cocolia. 

"Hey, Rex!" The girl asked. 

The name caught the attention of the audience as they looked closely. Venti and Zhongli, who were already aware of the identity of the figure, watched closely. Lumine, who knew of Venti, immediately noticed the similarity between the figure on the screen and the archons, 

"What is it?" The younger figure with full dark hair but with cyan-green tips asked, only to pause his work on his weapon, a golden cube, as the young woman grinned and hugged him from behind. 

"Come on! It's dinner time!" 

"The world that you saved..." The young man whispered as he faced the tree. "is worthless without you..." Raising his hand, the young man reached out towards the tree, only to turn around and swiped his hand, seeing a wind blade that bisected hordes and hordes of inky-black monsters that formed near him. 

"So? What will you do?" That voice, the damnable voice of the Will of Honkai echoed in his mind. "The imaginary tree's guardians stand in your way." 

"Please, be safe," Mei prayed as she looked at the version of a dear friend of hers on the screen. 

"The will, huh?" Welt observed as he fixed his glasses

"You forget," Rex said as he stood proudly while his cyan-green eyes hardened to razor-sharp blades. "I am not one of your weapons," Divinity erupted from his entire form as the entire universe sang in accordance. "I am Rex Crozzo of House Crozzo, The Anemo Archon of Earth," 

The sheer pride and confidence in his voice laced with no arrogance caught their attention and the people of Monstadt looked at the second Archon of Anemo. 

 "And I have never known defeat," The young man whispered as he lowered his hood piercing Cyan-green glows pierced the shadows, and soon, thousands of invisible arrows of compressed winds soared through the hordes and cut through the hordes

Snapping his finger, a massive vacuum appeared in the middle of the hordes, devouring everything inside while he looked at them with no emotion as they dissolved into nothingness while his wounds healed. 

"Need some help?" Venti, the Femboy archon asked as he formed beside him. 

"Barbatos?!"

"Go! I'll handle this!" Venti said with a smile as he looked at the hordes. 

"I owe you one!" Rex said as his cloak formed into a pair of wings as he flew away from his predecessor. 

"How wonderful, a tale of star-crossed lovers, reuniting once again," Venti said with a smile, unaware of the looming figures.

"Venti! Look out!" 

"No! Mr. Anemo Archon!" 

Shouts of concern aimed at the bard and Archon echoed in the theater 

With a smile painted on the Anemo Archon's face, the monsters that surrounded him were suddenly torn to an uncountable amount of pieces in a flash as the God of Freedom turned towards the crowd with a smile. 

"It's been a long time since I last let loose, so do make it memorable for me," Venti said with a smile as he let the Cloud Atlas appear in his hand causing the destruction of the horde in less than a second.

"Ehe!" Venti said with a smile as he looked at himself on the screen.

Stunned silence echoed in the entire theater as the 'weakest' of the Archons reduced a monster with sheer efficiency in less than a second. 

"You never lost your fangs, Barbatos. But you did get rusty," Zhongli said, "If it was you in your prime, then you would have done that in half the time you did," 

"Well, I never wanted to steal my successor's thunder," Venti said with an embarrassed grin. 

"You can do that?!" Paimon asked in awe at the act that the tone-deaf bard did. 

Diluc sighed, he already knew that the Archon was strong but to do that... 

Inside the seal, Kiana Kaslana smiled as she looked at the waves. 

"A beach? I thought it would have been the Academy," Rex said with a smile. Kiana heard his voice and her eyes widened. 

"So, you had to bail me out again," Kiana said with a smile as she stood up and hugged him tightly.

"Maybe," He said with a grin as he hugged her back. "We don't have enough time, but I managed to free you," 

"What did you do?" Kiana asked only for her eyes to widen as she found out. "No..." 

Rex smiled as he nodded solemnly. "I managed to find a way to lessen the punishment," Rex said with a smirk. 

"Only you," Kiana said with a soft smile.

"Yeah, you are still the seal, but you can exist outside the seal," Rex said with a smile as he rubbed her head while Kiana smiled and grabbed both of his hands before putting them on her cheeks just as she nuzzled them.

"How long?" 

"Can't say for sure," Rex said with a smile as his eyes softened.

The interaction of the two on-screen caught the attention and resulted in a lot of 'Awws' at how adorable the two acted. 

Cerberus hid his face from the crowd while Kiana rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment. 

"You better not forget me... you're officially a part of my harem," Kiana said with a pout, making the young man raised his brow as he looked at her. 

"Wait... what?" 

"Nothing!" Kiana said with a grin. The Archon chuckled as he walked beside the Princess of Finality, his cloak now gone to reveal the white suit underneath, now changed as a gift from Barbatos. Kiana, Dressed in her dress of Finality, walked beside Rex, the archon of revolution, and dressed in his suit of Winds of Genesis without his ponytail, letting his long hair fall down naturally.  

(this is what Anemo Rex wears but with Cyan-green hair instead. 

"KILL IT WITH FIRE!" Cerberus shouted as he glared at his on-screen self that looked too much like his adoptive grandfather, Otto Apocalypse. 

"You don't look half bad like that," Asta said as she imagined Cerberus with long hair. 

"So? What's the loophole?" Kiana asked as the two neared the gate. 

"I have to work for Akavili," Rex said with a smile as the two stopped in front of the gate. "It's full time but I can visit," 

"I see," Rex smiled at her reply as he held the handle of the door while Kiana held the handle. "Is this goodbye?" Kiana asked

"No, " Rex said as they both opened the door, showing St. Freya Academy. "It's just see you later," Rex said with a smile, rubbing her head one last time as he approached the door at the other side after seeing Mei and look at Kiana.

"Liar," Kiana said with a pout as she poked his cheek while Mei smiled as she pinched the other side. "You said you weren't lonely when we have fun," 

"Yes, what an awful liar," Mei teased, smiling softly as she pinched his cheek. "Hey, Kiana-chan, I sa him moping on the floor when he was all alone," 

"Mei!" Cerberus whispered in pained embarrassment. 

"Wait, what? I need to her more of this," Stelle said as she looked at Cerberus. 

"Rex!" The Archon turned around after only taking ten steps away from his best friend, only to be pulled forwards as Kiana held his face as she gave him a kiss. A kiss filled with a lot of emotions and so much more. 

Rex, not one to be fond of physical affection, kissed his best friend back as he held her in his arms.  Kiana pulled away with a smile as she grinned at him. Just then, Rex looked at his chest.

 "The authority of Finality?" Rex asked, his voice shaking as he looked at her. 

"Rex, You're my best friend and other half," Kiana said with a smile and passion that all those who heard it were amazed. Tsaritza, the deity of love, nodded at the display. "You did a lot for me, and I will never be able to repay you, That's why I want to share to you, my authority as the Herrscher of Finality," 

"I..." 

"Up, up, up. No buts!" Kiana said with a grin as she looked at him. "You better not forget me, and if you miss a visit," a cold evil smirk. "Your ass is grass like that time you did not stop with me,"

All the girls blushed as Kiana smugly smiled  while looking at the others. Mei blushe as well while Bronya from Earth shook her head while Earth Seele pouted. 

"Yeah, what other me, said." Kiana said with a smile. "For every girl, that's one round of-"

"Kiana!" Cerberus shouted, covering her mouth as he looked at the children only to moan when Kiana bit and nibbled on his hand with asmirk, 

"Your ass is grass."

"I was right," Mei said with a pout. "Cheater," 

"I'm not a cheater!" Kiana and Cerberus said at the same time. 

"Not you, KIana. Rex,"

"You better not replace me as your number 1," Kiana said with a grin as she kissed him one more time before she turned around and ran to the gate. Just as she rented, she winked at him. 

Unknown to her, the Anemo Archon's face burnt red once he was alone as he walked towards his gate. Deep inside, a child-like version of Reena appeared with her eyes closed. 

"Holy shit..."
