Arc 5 - Chapter 4: The end of Ambition

"Now, you all in the place i wanted."

"So your scheme is to isolate us, who use it isn't that much of a matter. But do you think your order out there can win ?" (Kuoni)

"No, my pawn out there only need to sap your strenght and kill that golemancer, i must say, i am surprise with your archivement from a ruined world. And what are we have here, two... three authors and a broken lab rat." (Kyle)

"And this broken lab rat can't wait until it sink its claw into your throat for what you done to it." (Ullyss)

"Calm down, Ullyss. This man is nothing more than a sick and depraved man. But that is another reason for him to fell before us." (Yeon)

"Then i will show you all how sick and depraved i can be. And again, i have no shame of killing children."

The battle in the place where time and space absence and nothing have meaning anymore longer begin. Even in a world where omega tier power is weaken and time have no meaning, kyle still have devices under his sleeves, Ullyss attacks first, his black claw clash with Kyle's project shield. While Kyle focus on Ullyss's direct attack, Yhaovi's vines bind around him and restrain his action. 

"Don't you understand, your action is meaningless, a few vine can bind a body but i never bind an idea. I won't let a bunch of kids get in my way."

The garden vines can't hold Kyle, with a simple command the vines torn and Kyle broke free, Ullyss jump back and avoid a dangerous attack from Kyle. Under his cloak is another device, it creates blades surrounding Kyle but those blade can leave Kyle and attack anyone in its range, Ullyss's fast reaction save him from the blades. Kyle focus on defense because power of time manipulation is sealed, Kyle can't take risk in attacking the authors. 

"Hugo ! I ask for your sacrifice."

"Morphis."

Huge turned into the black blade, other weapons appear around him in formation. Morphis summons his wire and restraint Kyle, to Kyle surprise he can't cut the wire and take the direct hit from Hugo and Gold. The attack break through the project shield and destroy the device, Kyle dives into the shadow but he didn't know, the wire connect him and Morphis still exist, the wire slowly form a spider web surrounding him make him return to the ground.

"Mariposian, annoying insect."

"Careful deary, we Mariposian is taught to keep a cold head but we never keep calm before any insult."

Morphis pull the wire closer to him, give a chance for Ullyss and Gold to attack him, Gold's black spear destroy the blade satalite fly around Kyle allow him and Ullyss to attack. Ullyss after taking the attack from the blade is recovered by Yeon's magic, Ullyss's brutal attack and Gold's elegant dance make Kyle can't immobilize, he can't attack and only remain defend but Kyle know everyone have a limit. Maybe he didn't know about Gold but Ullyss's power is limited by the time he attacks, the longer the battle the more strenght he lose.

"I know what are you thinking dear. I am not Or but a few spell is enough to hold you back, ready, Kuoni ?"

"I wonder when you say that my Chancellor, black, white, let's go. La Porte de l'Enfer."

"Fool, if you can't defeat me, you all will be trapped."

"I never reveal my power because i don't want you to peeping at my power, enjoy your seal of eternity my dear, Kuoni, tell my children to share the throne, they should rule Lumeria together."

"What are you talking my chancellor ?"

"I wish your mind expand and create such beautiful world."

Yeon push everyone out of La Porte de l'Enfer, before La Porte de l'Enfer trap him and Kyle in there, Yeon made a deal with quill, to regain his old power in exchange for his own existance. Yeon finished his rebirth when the gate of hell closed.

"Now show me my author, show me your growth, rebirth to your original self. Or - the glorious author... No, Yeon - the conductor of harmony." (Quill)

Inside the stasis world, instead of the clock appear on the ground, the ground is glittering gold, Or regain his old appearance, an absolute beautiful person, tall and slim, his long black hair is perfectly combed. In the custome of a conductor, his conductor baton weave up his own orchestra with every instrument and from those instrument are those who used to devote to him. 

"My melody has 4 movements and a finale, intrude me and you shall learn the price."

The melody start, slow and calm, the begining of the end, the world surrounding in the gate of hell changed, the glittering gold soon cover every corner as the melody goes on. Kyle ignore the warning and attack Or but every time he attack, the attack is absorbed into the every instrument. 

"The conductor not only corrects musical errors, but is also responsible for creating the best ensemble and taking command of the music. But also not only control himself, the score and the performers, the conductor must be harmonize with the score and the performer. When the conductors not taking any impact, the orchestra can peacefully perform and vice versa. My awakening protect me from you and anything try to hurt. Now, you ignore my warning, let's begin the second movement."

The music is much faster and cheerful but something is still restrained, the melody become piercing, shatter everything around, every attack Kyle cause before is returned to him. The orchestra bombard Kyle with his own magic he used, Or with the conductor's baton his hand weave up destruction to everything around the orchestra. The podium slowly rise up, the golden light slowly leave the ground and then, the podium rise so high that the golden light ascend with Or. The ground is covered in darkness and then snow appear.

"We are reaching it everyone, our third movement, let's move everyone. Unleash our chain, accelerando."

The melody become faster, the magic become dealy and fall from the podium toward Kyle, the icy ground slow down Kyle. The rain of magic fall from the podium rain down and destroy everything below. Never ignore the warning of the conductor but Or can't care too much about Kyle, he is ascending, he is in harmony with his performer. The feeling to weave up melodies, the feeling of the conductor's baton in his hand like estacy, the feeling the melodies surrounding him and the harmony he never felt before. The melody become even faster, the magic furiously attack Kyle from every corner but Or can't give any care about that, he is in paradise. The element he miss, the harmony he should felt before, the conductor ascended, the music pierce through the heaven. 

"Don't think even about changing the time, the conductor, his performer, and the score are absolute. We are reaching there everyone, our finale, fiery passion and refined, i have no greater honor than today i have a chance to perform with everyone. And for you Kyle, this melody will ascend you to your end."

The music reaching closer to the end, it became faster, it shatter every existance rather than the conductor. Since Or no longer need to control other, his melody is a giant spell of absolute destruction, with passion and power, that power destroy Kyle, even powerful enough to delete his existance.

"It seem like the deal is done, as your conductor, good job everyone. I can't do this without your help but it seem like this is nothing more than my swan song."

The gate of hell closed and Or return but he is not awake anymore. Quill answer, his punishment for Or is not a punishment, it is a test, a trial to prove his mature, now Or reached that, he grasped harmony in his hand and return as the second author. Quill store him inside a dimension to carry him back to the dreamhall. The thought the sealed void will disappear and they will return to Hygenious filled with laughter but something else went wrong. The world is vibrate and shivering, every dimension quake appear like waves on a lake during rain. from the empty space, a rift appear, a monstrous figure like the chimera Luxon faced appear. But this monster is even more horrid. Its body made out of black and white stripe, its roar made the empty space vibrate.

"How do you see me now authors. That monster - Or dare to made me reveal my trueself, then i guess i will demonstrate what i can really do."

The battle only began from this moment, Kyle attack with its giant hands, the dragon breath out hellish fire, his stomp cause fissure that swallow everything on the ground. His magic can manipulate time even when the omega power is surpressed. Huge turned into a wings and Gold flown from the ground, Yhaovi, Ullyss and Morphis stand on a web and Kuoni floating using his magic. The ground became too dangerous to stand on now.

"We need to surpress his time manipulation power, Quill, i need to borrow Lady Wynria's power."

"Yes my author. Power of lady Wynria, empress's dominance, surpress every existance's power."

"Restrain his power and cover me, i will destroy him once and for all. Kuoni, my master, i trust you will found a right tactic. Hugo, this time please do your best." (Gold.)

The crow wings and the weapon appears, a white mask cover his face. Gold attacks Kyle, his sword pierce through Kyle hard skin, the spears floating around also pierce into Kyle. The spear pierce through his foot and restrain his motion, but that is just an distraction, Hugo's blade already grew stronger and slash through Kyle. Like the Ullyss chimera, Kyle can recover his wound but much faster but Yhaovi don't let that happen, before the wound can recover, the butterfly fly closer to his wound and explode, Ullyss summon small shard from his dark claw and throw them into Kyle's wound.

"Hugo, let's go over the limit."

The world of star cover in darkness and flame, the blade hugo summon is seprated into a lot of small blades. A glorious building is rising from the ground, sunlight shone through it and it make Gold looks like a demon but a saviour at the same time. The battle keep on but the longer the battle, the weaker Gold become and finally he fall as the same way the building fall. Kyle roars and laugh.

"You all failed, when i am done with you all, every world will be mine."

"I won't let you, i know the price and i will accept it. Quill, i accept the term and condition."(Kuoni.)

"Yes my author."

"No, if anyone do it then that would be me."

"No teacher, this is the only thing i can do."

Balck and White shine up, Gold failed to destroy Kyle but he weaken the chimera, Kyle can't be destroy but he can be sealed with a great price. Kuoni sealed Kyle into him, tore his soul into Black, white and himself. Before sealed Kyle scream and cursing the librarian, the sealing ritual is sucess but the price is too high. The seal corrupt Kuoni and his power, in the next three days to eterity, any world Kuoni enter will be corrupted except the dreamhall.

"A true eternal prison but let's return to our world. Everything is over now."

But everything is not happy like Kuoni said, the moment he step through the portal the most painful thing shown to him. His brother - Musouka fall from the golem, he only fast enough to catch his dear brother. Blood leaked from Musouka's wound, they both sacrifice so much, the younger sacrifice his life and the older sacrifice his freedom. A tragic fate and finally, everything is not perfect like Kuoni wanted.
