The battlefield lay quiet. Mountains cracked, space ripped gently--but held. The fusion expired. Void ling and Blaze stood side by side once more, battle--worn but Defiant. Emperor Restu Kasumi remained still, his presence unchanged, his aura now subdued. Restu Kasumi slowly raised his gaze.
Restu Kasumi:
(Calm and decisive)
"The fight is over. You've proven what you needed to prove. I won't push this further and risk chaos "
The tension dissolved like mist--fire and void ebbing from the field. Silence wrapped the warriors and watchers alike.
Void ling:
(Softly)
"We didn't win...but that wasn't the point. We rose--because stagnation is the only true defeat."
Blaze Vortex:
(Half smiling)
"You humbled us. But you also acknowledge us. That...means everything."
Seraphina Nyx wings shimmering faintly, approached them slowly, eyes wide with emotion. And then she spoke with Void ling.
Seraphina Nyx:
(Blush at Void ling)
"You're okay... I thought--after all that..."
Void ling:
(Softly)
"Still here. Still standing. That's enough for today, we couldn't defeat him."
The winds settled around the fractured ground, silence thick in the air as Emperor Restu Kasumi turned to Void ling and Blaze Vortex, voice calm but heavy with truth.
Restu Kasumi:
(Resonant and composed)
"As you know, I am the Emperor of the Primeval Universe. Among the nine races in mentioned--Human, Queen, King, Empresss, Emperor, Omni Emperor, Goddess, Transcendent Void, and Supreme God--i hold the rank of Emperor...but my level of power has long surpassed it. I stand equal to an Omni Emperor."
The statement struck like thunder. Everyone froze in shock except for the Primeval monarchs. And then Empresss Asuna spoke with shock.
Asuna:
(Staggered)
"An Omni Emperor? But that's...beyond even recorded divine ascension."
Mae:
(Softly)
"That puts him one breath below Goddess--class..."
Nia:
(Wide-eyed)
"Ans just two beneath the Supreme Gods..."
Ryder:
(Low and whispered)
"Hmm.. it makes sense now, from the very beginning, I knew his power is monstrous, because of his Aura energy, no wonder he didn't flinch--not even against the fusion of Void and Blaze..."
Kaito:
(Frowned)
"I can't imagine how powerful his comrades are, because this is beyond reality can comprehend."
Blaze Vortex:
(Calm and stepped forward)
"I see, No wonder you blocked our strikes with one finger in our fusion form."
Restu Kasumi:
(Smiled arms at his back)
"Nobody in this universe stands above me. Not even Empress Asuna, and I dont know about you guys, I don't ever think you will surpass me."
Void ling:
(Smiled and smirked)
"Really? Won't surpassed you, you won't be able to kill me in my full power potential, the fusion was just a starter, wait until we master it. And I promise you I will defeat you one day."
Seraphina Nyx:
(Softly and stands beside Void ling)
"And I'll be there with you Void ling. You won't face the storm alone."
From the Primeval line. Arlequina Quiin sneered, voice sharp and mocking and then she spoke with mockery.
Arlequina Quiin:
(Disdainfully)
"I despise you, Seraphina. Acting like royalty with bodyguards at you side--when all you do is hide behind their power."
Void ling's eyes glowed purple with fury, a storm rising silently. His aura spiraled into dark shards--purple void energy igniting with pressure. He turned toward Arlequina gaze cutting like blades.
Void ling:
(His eyes purple in seriousness)
"Speak to her again...and you'll learn how words carve deeper than swords."
Arlequina flinched. Her own aura collapsed slightly. It felt as if a blade pierced her--not physically, but through soul and certainty. Alistair Graylock, stepped forward calmly between them
Alistair Graylock:
(Protective and sharp)
"Careful, Void ling. Her voice may sting--but yours cuts futures. Save your edge for those who deserve it."
With the final verdict delivered and the fusion unraveled, Emperor Restu turned calmly toward Arlequina Quiin. The tension in the air twisted for a breath--then softened as sovereignty reasserted control.
Restu Kasumi:
(Low, but firm)
"Arlequina...dont try that again. You know very well Void ling could defeat you if you provoke him. So watch you tone. Especially doing that to her Beloved Seraphina."
Arlequina Quiin:
(Eyes widened and felt disappointed)
"I'm sorry,Master Restu. I apologize."
Restu Kasumi Turning towards Empresss Asuna, his gaze softened, and then he spoke with admiration.
Restu Kasumi:
(Calm)
"Well, Empresss Asuna...that's all for today. I must say, your universe harbors powerful warrios. Especially those two boys--Void ling and Blaze."
Asuna:
(Warmly)
"Welll... it was nice seeing you, Emperor Restu, so glad to have you here anytime."
Restu Kasumi:
(Gravely)
"Watch out for the Divine Fang Universe. Empres Yasha Arashi may visit someday... and if she does, be ready. But whatever you do--do not or let anyone visit the Elysian Universe. A realm led by women. Their Empres Octavia governs with silence dominance--and she's not fond of guests. See ya..."
With that, the entire Primeval delegation faded from the vastlands in a single pulse of light--returning to their realm instantly. Blaze Vortex, arms crossed, and curious.
Blaze Vortex:
(Turned towards Empress Asuna)
"What did he mean by that? Is he saying the Elysian Universe is...hostile?"
Void ling:
(Turned towards Blaze)
"He means it's not a place for diplomacy. The Elysian Universe doesn't just resist visitors--it rewrites them. Every realm has laws. That one's written in silence and elegance. And Empres Octavia? She guards it like it's made of secrets. That universe is only womens and girls, not men or boys are allowed."
The stars begain to fade into indigo hush as the emptiness of the battlefield stretched beyond sound. Where the multiversal summit once raged with power, now only six remained: Void ling and Blaze, seated quietly on fractured stone, with Celestina, Ryder, Kai,Glacior, and Takashi standing nearby. Empres Asuna's final words still echoed faintly.
Asuna:
(Before departing)
"We've had a long day. Let's all return to our kingdoms. Restoration begins in rest."
With that, All kings and Queens disappeared, same with Empress Asuna and her Queens vanished in gentle pusles of teleportion light--leaving a hused vacuum of reflection. Except for King Ryder, and his crew stayed, and Void ling and Blaze
Ryder:
(With inviting strength)
"Blaze...would you want to master Dark Eternity, just as Void ling did?"
Blaze Vortex:
(Smirked)
"If it let's me stand toe--to--toe with Void ling in a real clash next time...absolutely."
Void ling:
(Serious and calm)
"But Mr Ryder...you do know that mastering Dark Eternity in training is extremely painful. Especially the final sequence."
Ryder:
(Solemnly)
"Yes...but pain is a currency. And mastery is expensive. You survived it, Void. Now let Blaze earn his legacy."
Celestina:
(Softly)
"It getting dark. We should head back. I'm sure Kaia and Ryuu have prepared something delicious for all of us."
Kai, Glacior, and Takashi nodded in agreement. In one final synchronization surge, they teleported--return to the heart of the Crimson Kingdom, where warmth, quiet laughter, and soft candlelight waited. Meanwhile at the Empress Dynasty, Empress Asuna sat upon her radiant throne, Mae, Nia, and Revy sat on their thrones too.
Mae:
(Calm)
"Lady Asuna...what if we host a Grand Tournament? One that reaches across every universe--let everyone show what they are capable of."
Nia:
(Grinning)
"I second that! Imagine the clashes...the glory...the stories."
Revy:
(Smiling)
"Agreed. It would unifty fractured realms--and remind everyone what honor looks like at full scale."
Asuna:
(Calm)
"Hmmm... that would be a great idea, but it would require permission from the Emperors and Empresss across the multiverses.
Empress Asuna rose from her throne and stepped into the center of the hall, raising her hand. A glowing sigil opened mid--air--connecting to the Cosmic Realm of invitations, a woven layer where sovereign voices can be heard across multiverses. Her words rippled across dimensions like silk in wind.
Asuna:
(With serene command)
"Greetings Emperors and Empresss, To those who reign beyond the veil--hear me.
"Emperor Restu Kasumi of the Primeval Universe..." Empress Yasha Arashi of the Divine Fang Universe..." Empress Octavia of the Elysian Universe..." Empress Vespera Lavanar of Zenith Universe..." Emperor Azrael Star of the Obsidian Universe..." Emperor Raphael Lumin of the Paradox Universe... I, Empress Asuna of the Astral Universe, propose a Grand Multiverseal Tournament--where strength meets philosophy,and unity is forged in combat. All universes may participate. Do you accept?"
Emperor Restu Kasumi:
(Smirked)
"Agreed. The tournament shall begin in 10 days."
Empress Octavia:
(Silence and calm)
"We will be ready."
Emperor Raphael Lumin:
(Smiled)
"Understood. We will send our finest."
Empress Yasha Arashi:
(Soft and firm)
"Alright Empres Asuna, we will be ready in 10 days time."
Everyone agreed Empress Vespera and Emperor Azrael agreed also, leaning their realms to the call. Empress Asuna, receiving their response, closed the connection with grace.
Empress Asuna:
(Warmly)
"Thank you for your time everyone. I appreciate your permission."
And so, the transmission faded. The Multiverse stirred. The countdown began. Meanwhile at the Crimson Kingdom. Lanterns and starlight chandeliers, the core team dined together--finally away from battlefield chaos. Laughter echoed. And then Kaia spoke.
Kaia:
(Curious)
"I sensed you guys fused and fought Emperor Restu. Is thst true?"
Void ling:
(Calm while eating)
"We did. And we learned more in ten seconds than in ten battles."
Blaze Vortex:
(Chewing on a huge rib of meat, and spoke)
"And next time,we're aiming higher. We are trying to mastered our fusion."
Ryder:
(To blaze)
"Eat up. Tomorrow, you begin to master Dark Eternity. Void ling survived it. Now it's your turn to wrestle fire and redefine pain."
AND WITH THAT, THE TABLE GREW QUIET--NOW IN TENSION, BUT ANTICIPATION.
