"Ice-Make:Lance!!!!!!"

The clone of Kyoya extends his arms forward, creating long, curved ice lances that he shoots towards the real Kyoya and Juvia. Seeing this, Kyoya and Juvia nod to each other.

"Ice-Make:Diamond Castle!!!!!!!!"

With his grimoire opened, Kyoya slammed his hands on the ground as he made a giant castle made of ice around him and Juvia as it protects them from the fake version's attack. Soon the clone of Juvia stepped forward as she tries to destroy it.

"Water Magic:Water Slicer!!!!"

The fake Juvia creates a single wave of multiple blades that resemble scythes which were fired at the castle. Seeing this, the real Juvia stepped out the castle with a smile on her face.

"Water Magic:Water Cyclone!!!!!"

With her grimoire opened, the real Juvia casts a whirling torrent of water which resembles a cyclone and launched it at the fake Juvia's attack. As the cyclone of water overpowered the attack, it collided with the fake Juvia and fake Kyoya. Seeing this, Juvia knew that the planned worked as she saw Kyoya jumping towards their copies.

"Even if they're our clones, they're still made from Daemon Spade's magic. That means......"

"....I can seal it! Ice Magic:Zero Point Breakthrough!"

As Kyoya got close to the clones, he put his hands together and gathered a great amount of ice magic in them. Soon the copies were completely frozen solid in ice as Juvia no longer felt any mana from them.

"An ice spell that can seal magic. That's incredible, but shouldn't we help Mukuro?"

"No need to. Despite how much i'd like to beat the crap out of him, he isn't one to go down so easily. After all, he's the only one who can keep up with me."

~With Daemon Spade~
"My connection to the illusions of those magic knights....it's been severed?!"

As Daemon was thinking to himself, Mukuro quickly thrusts his trident towards the man. Daemon quickly jumped to the side but his cheek was grazed by Mukuro's weapon. Soon the man swung his scythe as his weapon clashed with Mukuro's.

"Do you hate me that much, Mukuro? After all, the one who killed Chrome wasn't me."

"Kufufu. That is true, plus I couldn't give a damn about being righteous or being a hero. I want to destroy a lot of things, but I can't sleep at night if I know a threat bigger than myself exists. Besides, I already hate someone else but I at least tolerate his existence. But you....I despise everything about you. You represent the corruption that I despise with all my being. That's why killing you will bring me nothing but joy."

As Mukuro jumps back, he saw his father dashing towards him. When this happened, he smiled as the ground underneath them broke apart. As soon as Daemon looked down, he saw himself being engulfed in multiple pillars of flames.

"Damn....i'm actually starting to feel hot. The more he exposes me to his illusions, the more I start to believe they're reality. If I do that now, I might be burned alive. Well then, guess i'll play along!"

As Daemon said this, he used his own illusions to freeze the pillars of flames. Soon they were no more than pillars of ice as Daemon smirked at the outcome. He had more experience when it came to using illusions, so he was confident he would be victorious in the battle of illusions.

"You haven't realized it, have you? Who said that this was a battle of illusions? The fact you came to that conclusion is an illusion in itself."

Daemon looked at Mukuro, but something felt off. He felt more magic power pouring from Mukuro. When he looked at his son, he saw a simple white revolver emerging from his grimoire. As Mukuro held it in his hand, he aimed it towards his own head. Not only that, multiple crows have formed around Mukuro's body.

"I've seen hell many times. Seeing it one more time wouldn't hurt me. But would a coward like you, who would sacrifice his own children to make life easier for himself, be able to handle the sight. I'm more than just an illusionist. I'm the Child of Wrath, a person who'll unleash his fury at any cost."

"You wouldn't dare....."

"Kufufu.......Possession Shot."

As Mukuro pulled the trigger on the revolver, the sound of a gun shot was heard as hit body hit the ground. Mukuro's body was lifeless as it was laying on the ground. Seeing this, Daemon Spade just simply laughed.

"That's it! Your trump card was to commit suicide! A corpse isn't enough to stop me Muku-"

Before Daemon could finish his sentence, he felt a burning sensation in his right eye. Soon his right eye went from its normal blue color to the color red as the number two was inside it.

"What's going on, I can't move my mouth to speak. All I can hear is my own voice."

"Kufufu. Because this isn't your body to command anymore, Daemon Spade. Possession Shot, after I shot myself with the revolver I gained control of your body since I formed a pact with you."

Daemon couldn't believe what he heard. How did Mukuro form a pact with him? Soon he remembered the events of his battle with his son. The only major thing he managed to do was graze him with his trident.

"Don't tell me....the pact was formed....."

"The moment my trident scratched you. Don't worry, you still feel anything that happens to your body if something were to happen to it. Like this!!!!!"

Suddenly Mukuro grabbed his trident and pierced it through Daemon's own body. As the two of them screamed in pain, Mukuro made a smile appear on Daemon's face.

"For the torment you put Chrome, Ken, and I through......for forcing me to murder my own sister.....I shall judge you since no one else can't! I'll make you experience a hell unlike any other!!!!!!"

When Mukuro looked up, Daemon saw a murder of crows flying towards his body. The man screamed in pain as Mukuro went back to his own body. As his body stood up, Mukuro looked at Daemon's body getting eaten alive. They chewed out his tongue so he couldn't scream. They chewed on his eyes, so he couldn't see. They even torn off his ears. As Daemon was getting eaten alive, Mukuro walked away as he said one thing.

"I told you I would show you a preview of your demise, Father. I kept my promise like I said I would. Your life is now nothing more than an illusion."

As the crows disappeared, the only thing on the ground was Daemon's corpse. His innards were now exposed to the world as his skull was cracked open. Seeing this, Mukuro merely laughed.

"I did it, Chrome. Hopefully you can rest easy in heaven. As for me, i'll never see you again. If I die, there's no way a sinner like me will make it to heaven."

Soon Mukuro walked back to where Kyoya and Juvia were located. He was surprised to see that they were waiting on him. One thing was clouding his mind when he saw this.

"Kyoya, how were you so sure that I would come back? After all, i'm not the most honest person. I could've simply left after finishing my goal."

"You said you would try to form a pact with me, remember. You couldn't do that if you were a corpse, plus now would be the closest chance you get to trying to posses me. So of course your only option to make that goal real was to survive and come back to us. Now come on, we have a mission to finish."

As Kyoya said this, the group left in order to meet the others in the center of the base where Licht may possibly be. However, Mukuro and Kyoya had a bad feeling. This infiltration almost felt too easy.

~Meanwhile~
Sally, Valtos, and Rades were with Licht as he managed to kill Julius and retrieved all of the magic stones. When he stood before a stone tablet, he puts the stones in place as he was ready to fulfill his goal.

"Thank you everyone, you've done amazing work so far. I'm so proud of you all."

The three of them smiled as they were happy that their goal was so close in their grasp. However, Licht merely looked at them as he sighed for a moment.

"Everything i've said to you all has been the words as the leader of the Eye of the Midnight Sun, Licht. But now I shall say what is truly on my mind as Patri. You are greedy and selfish. You show no qualm in hurting others, though you're extremely sensitive to your own pain. You envy, hate, and discriminate against fellow humans over petty things. You justify your own weaknesses through idolizing something. Everything was for the sake of your own filthy selves. You humans truly are selfish, hopeless, foolish, and ugly creatures."

"Master Licht, what are you saying?"

"This is goodbye for you. You will serve as the foundation of the resurrection!"

Soon the stone tablet behind Patri started to glow brightly. With a wicked smile on his face, Patri only said one thing to his former allies as they were crumbling away, begging for their lives.

"The moment I selected you three, you were marked as sacrifices for this forbidden magic. You are all sacrificial lambs that will bring back my real friends."

~With Kyoya~
As Kyoya and Mukuro were running around, they felt a sudden surge of magic power. When they turned around, they saw a strange light surrounding Juvia's body. However, while this happened, Kyoya's grimoire was glowing a black color.

"Juvia, what's wrong? Did something happen to you during that fight?"

"I'm not so sure......."

~With Echidna~
"It would seem as though the resurrection is starting. Not only that, it seems as though someone else is awakening."

As Echidna was in the Sanctuary, an image was in her head. Kyoya's grimoire was glowing as it had a familiar presence inside it. It felt like there was a soul inside of it. As soon as Echidna saw this, she couldn't help but smile.

"It seems as though fate is making its move. And a very cruel one indeed. Silver and Kyoya's ancestor....HE is slowly awakening."

~Meanwhile~
It was a very dark space as a lone figure was slowly opening up his eyes. He had pitch black hair and his eyes were also pitch black. But as soon as he blinked they suddenly turned red.

"My descendant......do not....fall."
