Ultima Forest - Nero POV

Something was wrong

Since the tournament that happened last week, lot of hunter were patrolling in the forest

I think they're searching for me, but i will stay hidden in case

Sometimes, the goddess comes and search too, and it was much harder to hide.

But, it wasn't that who was wrong

It was the monster

One day they spawn every minute, now they don't

Two solution:

One- Monster spawning have stopped so there is no monster in the "open" space

Two - An attack is going to come, and when i look at the level of the hunter....

It will be a genocide

I need to act fast, to make sure everyone will be safe

But first, i need to talk with the oracle

Time skip - Nero POV

I was wearing a sweater with a hood, so no one can see my face until i show it

I approched the Oracle mansion, but was stopped by a guard

Guard1: ID?

Nero: Don't have one

Guard2: Then get lost, or we will have to open fire

Nero: Really? Are you going to fire at a legend?

Guard: Huh?

I took my hood off, and they were shocked to see me

Guard1: M-MISTER NERO?! YOU'RE ALIVE!

Guard2: Fool! He may be a fake!

Guard1: R-Right!

They aimed at me, nervous

I sigh and decided to transform into my HDD form

Guard2: It's really you.... Everyone, don't shoot!

Guard1: The Hero is back!

Nero(HDD): Yes, but i need to talk with the Oracle, can you let me in?

 Guard1: Right away!

They open the door, but before i could walk, one of the guard came at me

Guard: Umm, Excuse me!

Nero: Hmm?

Guard 1: I'm a huge fan, and i wanted to know if i could take a picture with you

Guard 3: Me too!

Guard 4: Don't forget about me!

Guard: Hey not fair! I was here before!

Nero: Now, now everyone, how about a group picture?

All: Yes!

We took the picture, and they waved me goodbye

Crap, i forgot to tell them not to say about me

Well, it will be known a moment or another

I enterred the house, and walked into the "reunion room" like Chika always told me

I knocked on the door, and could hear the voice of Chika

Chika: Who is it?

Nero: A world without 4 Goddess online, is a world where there is no happy Vert

Fast footsteps comes my way, and the door opened the door

In front of me, was a shocked Chika, behind her, the other oracle, who were curious about who i was

Chika: H-How?

Nero: *smile* I used an item to revive myself, like how Vert teached me

Tear ran down her face, and she hugged me

Chika: I missed you so much....

Nero: I'm here now, don't worry

Histoire: Chika? Who is at the door

Nero: The one and only "legend of Gameindustry"

3 Oracle: Nero?!

Nero: The one and only

Kei: But you were supposed to be dead?

Nero: I'm not your Nero, but one from another dimension

Chika: W-What?

Nero: Yeah, i'm from the Hyperdimension not this one.

Histoire: I see, but how did you come in this dimension in the first place

Nero: Well, it's a long story

One explanation later

I explained what happened, since my fight against Rei, to the transformation of the CPU into their NEXT form, and how i came here

Histoire: I see, there is a chance that this Akuma guy, is Gero, who send the 4 giant here, 5 years ago

Nero: There is a chance, but now it's not important

Histoire: How so?

Nero: I feel like someone is controlling the monster, and is about to attack Union

Mina: How are you so-!

She was cut off by an explosion, coming from the border east of the city

Nero: Like that

Histoire: Be careful there Nero, if Akuma is as strong as you said, you will need to achieve a new form

Nero: Well, i have something in preparation, so don't worry

I took off flying in the direction of the city

Nero:  Everyone, just wait a little more, help will be here soon

Timeskip 

I managed to arrive at the city, and could see monster everywhere

And i felt his energy, Akuma's energy

I rushed to where he was and see him fighting the CPU, and he was dominating easily

Akuma: It seems like when the "hero" is not here, you're all weaklings

He was ready to kill them, but sensed my energy and looked at me

https://youtu.be/Ibb_B4bQ6VM

We stared at each other, not saying a word

I jumped and landed in front of him, transformed into my Super form

CPU: N-Nero....

We continued to stare at each other, but decided it's not the time to fight him

I turned around, and heals the CPU

Akuma: Turning your back on your ennemy, huh?

S.Nero: You're not the first thing to be take care of

Akuma: Smart move, you knew that if you managed to win this fight, you would be too weak to fight all the monster in the city

S.Nero: Trust me, i will take care of you, once i will finish with this monster

Akuma: As if you can beat me

He jumped and landed in a building

Akuma: I will wait for you to finish the monster, so we can have that final fight

S.Nero: With pleasure

(Stop the OST here)

I looked at the CPU and they were at the verge of crying

S.Nero: I know you all missed me, but you need to stay focus on the rescue of the city

CPU: Right!

We dispatched into 4 groups

The purple sister will take care the East part

The black sister will take care of the West part

The white sister will take care of the South part

And me and Vert will take care of the North

As we arrived into the North city, i could see a fire monster, fighting that Twigo guy i fought at the tournament, protecting civilians

He was holding his own, but won't forever

Twigo: I will not let you harm those civilians

The monster roared and charged at him

But i was faster and kicked it in the head, instantly killing it

Twigo: You!

S.Nero: You did great to protect these monster, i take care of the rest

I looked at the remaining monster, and the seems scared

Scared of me

I took a step, and the backed down

S.Nero: Interresting

I released my energy into the city, and could feel all the monster starting to flee

S.Nero: Seems like it was faster than i thought

The CPU come to my way, and i told them this

S.Nero: Everyone, i will need your help for the next one

CPU: How?

S.Nero: Place your hand on my back, and give me all the energy you can

CPU: Okay, we trust you on this one

They placed they're hand on my back and gave me their energy

Energy was flowing into my body

The share energy was so strong, it maked my power goes up by one hundred times

This sensation was incredible, it felt like i've reached the final stage of my power

But, dark feeling came into my view

The loss against Akuma

The death of everyone

The feeling of being alone

It tried to eat me, but all the good memories came and protected me

All the times i played with Vert

When we've done prank with the Rom & Ram

The date i've done with Uni

The creation i've done with Nepgear

The book i've read with Blanc

The match i've won with Neptune

The quest we finished with Noire

But most importantly....

My greatest memory

My kiss with Uzume

Soon enough, all this energy exploded

It went into the air, and cleared the sky from it's dark cloud

It soon came back into the ground, and gathered all the environment energy

It came back to me, and created a smoke screen around me

The energy enterred my body again, but this time, i controlled it

I took off flying a little

When i opened my eyes, it sent a shockwave into the city

But it rebuild everything in no time

(2:10)

When the smoke screen dissapeared, everyone could see my new form

I had pink hair, with red eyes.

I was skinnier, but i felt much stronger

I had now a red aura, but it felt more like something that protected me, than just a simple aura

I looked at everyone, and soon smiled

Nero: Everyone, thank you

(Stop the OST here)

I took off to where Akuma was, and finally met him

Akuma: ......

Nero: Let's finish it, right here and now

Akuma: You're right, this is the final fight, where destiny will be written

https://youtu.be/ahRLB5yqCjY

We rushed at each other, our fist hitting each other, sending a shockwave

I tried to kick him, but he blocked it

He tried to punch me, but i blocked it

It continued like that for a good minute, no one taking the lead

Akuma: You truly have changed, you managed to hold your own against my 50%

Nero: Because you think i was serious too?

Akuma: How so?

Nero: I was too at 50%, but i'm still adapting to this new form

We lost no time, and rushed again at each other

I created an energy sword on my left hand, and he did too on his right hand

We clashed, and struggled to overpower the other

Akume: Trust me, you will never win this fight!

Nero: ....

We clashed, again and again, still at the same level

We backed away from each other, before he received a call from someone

Akuma: What is it? ....... I'm in the middle of a fight right now...... So you managed to capture them?....... Good i will be there in a few moment

He hang up and looked at me

Akuma: It seems like we must stop our fight here for the moment

Nero: Let me guess, that friend of yours that looks like Uzume, have captured the CPU?

Akuma: How did you know?

Nero: This form increase not only my strengh you know

Akume: I see

He opened a portal, and told me something before he left

Akuma: The more you grow up, the more you look like him

Nero: What?

He walked into the portal, leaving me curious

Nero: Who is "him"?

Time skip

It been 3 days since the attack of Akuma

I asked the oracled if i could make a speech to the civilian

I was at the top of a tower, still in my new form, adapting

Nero: People of Gameindustry!

Since the beggining of the CPU, they protected you from any harm that comes to treat you!

6 Years ago, i was born as the CPU candidate of Leanbox, and protected Gameindutsry from any harm!

But today, this will change!

What will happen if the CPU are defeated? Who is going to fight?

It's you all!

You will stand up, and be strong!

Create your own future, make sure the next generations can be strong too, so they won't have to feel what is the fear of being attacked by monsters!

I will not be here forever to protect you!

SO BE STRONG, AND PROTECT THIS WORLD THAT I AND THE CPU PROTECTED FOR SO LONG!

They all cheered, and praised my name

Nero: Now, i will let my fellow CPU have words with you all!

I took off, to where Histoire was, and see the portal ready

Histoire: Everything is ready

Nero: Thanks Histoire

Histoire: It's no problem, it's the least i can do

Before i walked into the portal, i looked at Chika, and she seems nervous

Nero: Chika

She looked at me, still nervous

I opened my arms, and smiled

Nero: Come here

She ran to me, and hugged me

After a few minute, she let go and smiled

Nero: Tell this to Vert: "From now on, i am you little sister", okay?

Chika: *smile* I will

I walked into the portal, and see myself into the Zerodimension

Nero: Strange, it was supposed to be destroyed at my second fight against Akuma

I could feel 2 different Energy

One was Akuma, and he seems far away

The other was Nepgear and the other

I decided to go and check on my friends

After all, i will need all the help i need to the next fight

AND DONE

The Legend arc is finished, hoped you liked it, because it was fun to write

The next arc is the final one, and it's called
