BOOM! BOOM!! BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
The battle continued, even in the depths of space, but the intense clashes reverberated across the entire Earth, reachin everyone's ears.
People were nearly in despair. Driven by boundless fear, the evil that usually lurked in the depths of their hearts was unleashed! Crimes like robbery, murder, and more erupted like a virus across the world.
Humans are always like this—when pushed to the brink, they go mad. They seek to enjoy their final moments through extreme means, finding a fleeting sense of peace in their madness.
Criminals broke out of prisons, presidents fled to brothels, religious fanatics paraded through the streets, holding signs and wildly welcoming the arrival of the angel, telling people not to grieve, not to fear, for the days of happiness were near. The great Lord had finally sent His messenger to save us, the lost lambs…
In short, before the world could be destroyed, humanity had already collapsed!
As for that lone figure still battling fiercely in the sky, who would remember him now…
…
"Ha… Ha…"
Gasping for breath, enduring the pain, sweat blurring his vision, Sora had lost count of how many times he had swung his sword. Though he had given it his all, the occasional beams of light still pierced through the Earth, and the falling spheres still caused massive waves.
Even though he was invincible in this plane, facing such a supreme being, he still felt utterly powerless.
"It's useless, boy. You can't save yourself, nor can you save this world. Give up." The angel's voice reached Sora's ears.
Though she possessed wisdom, she had rarely spoken du the battle. Perhaps, to her, humans were such insignificant beings that they weren't worth communicating with. Even this statement was likely spoken with a hint of pity.
Sora didn't grow angry at her words, nor did he retreat. Instead, a faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips:
"Heh, haven't you noticed? Your light is dimming."
"And don't underestimate this world, nor humanity. This time, I don't plan to turn back time and try again!"
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Sora spoke with a meaningful tone.
"Heh, Sora-sama, are you talking about this?"
"No, no, I can't let you use the power of the jinki again. This world has already died—let it end quickly!"
In the next moment, something astonishing happened. The holy six-winged angel transformed into Natsuo, holding a jinki in his hand!
"Natsuo, how could it be you!"
Almost losing his balance and falling from the sky, Kugetsu's face was filled with disbelief.
"The Heavenly Dao does not allow the reversal of rules. I just went back to the past with you and replaced the existence of this human."
"This human's wish was to destroy this world. He himself gave up his own existence."
Transforming back into an angel, the jinki also disappeared. The angel murmured:
"I probably understand what's going on now," Kugetsu's face was almost black with anger.
If I had known earlier, I should have killed that damn disgusting guy. If my sweetheart died, I should have just followed her. How could he drag the entire world down with him!
Originally, I planned to wear him down and then use the power of the jinki to completely destroy him, but now this unexpected turn of events has made that impossible.
Thinking quickly, Sora kept considering other methods.
"Without destruction, there is no birth. Human, give up resistance."
Extending a hand, countless explosive light spheres came hurtling towards Sora.
"Damn it, you talk so nicely, why don't you just die?!!"
Sora had the urge to curse, but he didn't dare to be distracted. He immediately dodged.
These light spheres were like the energy blasts of Saiyans, exploding on contact. Sora had already been hit by a few and almost lost his breath. He didn't dare to take them head-on!
Negotiation was out of the question; the battle continued!
…
Boom! Thud…
Like a meteor falling from the sky, Sora landed on Kouten, creating a massive crater hundreds of meters wide. He spat out a mouthful of blood, almost losing consciousness.
"Master…"
"Owner…"
…
The girls rushed over, their hearts aching as they saw Sora lying on the ground, covered in wounds, pale and extremely weak.
"Sora, even if we die, we will be with you…"
Gently holding Sora in her arms, Miya's purple eyes were fill with thick mist.
"Wuwuwu, Sora, does it hurt…"
Yukari also rushed over. Known as the Demon Queen, she was now in tears.
Even the strongest women would feel heartbroken seeing their man injured like this…
"That bastard, we must kill her! Kill her!"
"How dare she hurt Master like this, absolutely unforgivable!"
…
The girls' hearts were burning with anger. The power gap was long forgotten, and they were ready to rush forward to avenge Sora.
"Cough… You silly girls, calm down!"
Though touched, Sora would be devastated if these desperate girls rushed forward to their deaths.
"This is our last hope. Kusa, come here."
Lying in Miya's arms, letting Yukari tend to his wounds, Sora called out to the little loli Kusa with difficulty.
After the battle, his strength was almost exhausted. Although the Sekireis had recovered somewhat, they were no match for the six-winged angel.
With a hint of anxiety, Sora knew he had to use his final trump card!
"Wuwuwu, big brother, Kusa is so worried about you!"
Because the little loli was so small, everyone had forgotten about her in the chaos. The little one squeezed her petite body over, her pink face covered in tears, hugging Sora's head and crying.
"Alright, alright, Kusa, big brother is fine, right?"
"Time is urgent now, big brother needs to borrow your power. Kusa, you are our last hope."
While stroking the little loli's long golden hair, Sora comforted her.
Looking at the massive light sphere growing in the sky, Sora had no doubt that if it fell, the entire Earth would turn into cosmic dust!
"Yes! Big brother, Kusa will do her best. Let's use the prayer!"
Nodding repeatedly, seeing everyone fighting and even big brother injured, the little loli who had been hiding behind everyone felt the most distressed.
So, when it was finally time to use her power, without hesitation, Kusa kissed Sora.
The other Sekirei girls had been tasted by Sora countless times, but this little loli was still too young and had been kept aside. Except for the time they formed the contract, this was their first kiss.
Normally, Sora would have enjoyed it slowly, but time was urgent now, and he didn't dare to mess around. After the kiss, he let go of Kusa.
Under everyone's gaze, a dazzling light emanated from Kusa's body. Opening her eyes, a pair of emerald-green eyes like gemstones were revealed.
Opening her small, delicate lips, an ancient prayer came from Kusa's mouth:
"We pledge our lives to fulfill the wish of the master!"
As soon as the prayer was finished, the ground trembled, and countless sprouts broke through the soil. In just a few breaths, the once barren and desolate Kouten was covered in flowers and trees, the scent of flowers and grass making it seem like a fairyland!
The girls looked at this scene in disbelief, never expecting that the usually smallest little one would possess such immense power.
But the next moment, something even more unbelievable happened!
The air was filled with countless green light points, which merged into the girls' bodies upon contact. In an instant, the girls found all their injuries healed, and their strength fully restored!
Bestowing life, healing all things—this was Kusa, the true power of No. 108, the Life Force!
"So amazing! Kusa, you're amazing!"
Overjoyed, the girls affectionately hugged the little loli, their excitement beyond words.
With power came hope! The little one was truly everyone's greatest blessing.
"Girls, the final moment has arrived!"
"We must survive, no matter what!"
Sora, who had fully recovered, held Kusano in his arms and stood up, shouting to the girls.
He didn't know if he and these lovely girls could survive, but they had to!
"Swear to follow our king to the death! Swear to follow our king to the death!"
The Sekirei tattoo on the back of their necks emitted a dazzling light. The girls knelt on one knee, their voices resonating across the sky.
Summoning the King's Sword, Sora continuously poured his newly restored power into it. The girls also stood up, channeling all their strength into the sword.
It grew and grew. Originally only three feet long, the sword, infused with the power of Sora and the girls, transformed into a thousand-foot-long blade, like a peerless weapon spanning the heavens.
"The sword that carries our last hope—we absolutely cannot lose!"
Under the will of Sora and the girls, the giant sword pointed straight into the sky, charging toward the massive falling light sphere.
Swift as a hurricane, fast as lightning, under the gaze of countless people, the sword and the light sphere collided…
BOOM!!!
Centered on Earth, invisible waves spread out into the universe. The strike that would decide the fate of the world erupted with a brilliance akin to the sun…
