The giant white cocoon that had formed within Maria's Soulscape was rapidly developing and shaking. Cracks appeared across it.
Someone was beginning to emerge from within, someone of immense power.
Lucifer's evolution was about to end!
"IT'S FUTILE, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO DELAY THE INEVITABLE!"
Both the Nightmare Curse's main body and its avatar roared as they faced Maria and Cheng Xie. The young Chinese man smirked, his aura growing larger and stronger. The trust, hope, and dreams of the people empowered him, amplified even more by Maria and her squad cheering and believing in him.
"YOU'RE OUT OF ENERGY, MONKEY!"
The Avatar rushed toward Cheng Xie again. The bleeding young man smiled, pushing forward as well, his power surging, growing stronger and stronger. His Aura of the Monkey King expanded mightily, clashing against his dark clone.
"Nah, that's where you're wrong!"
