King pondered into deep thought, he let his guard down, as he felt safer now.
He said "But what are you going to do to that Lord? First, you have to kill him right?".
Celestia suddenly appeared to glitch, king noticed this as he retreated back several steps.
He said "You! You are not Celestia! Who are you?".
The figure eventually emerged, the entire surroundings started to change, king saw Celestia's figure turn into a random alien.
As she fell down on the spot and died instantly, Lord laughed "I have undergone a certain character development! Hehe!
I only acted on pride! But...".
King's pupils shrank into needle size "So from now? You won't be...prideful?".
He thought "Damn it, his only weakness had now gone, Should I really use my powers? But...".
Lord snorted "Not prideful anymore? Fool! Are you deaf? Didn't I just say character development! Earlier, based on other's opinions and reactions.
My pride was decided! Like I wanted to be cool before others and farm aura! But later I remembered all of you are worthless.
So my pride is whatever action I do and whatever I think is right.
That's true pride! Whatever I decide, Whatever path I choose to walk, Whatever action I decide is...the correct option.
It's not pride anymore! It's called Lord! ONLY LORD!".
King saw the entire planet in ruins, almost everybody were killed.
The ground was painted in the blood of countless innocent lives.
He actually didn't feel pity for them, but he suddenly remembered something as he frowned.
He gritted his teeth and sighed.
King thought "No! I have made a promise, I can't let this go on Lord's way!...".
He frowned "But aren't these people worthless to you? So why did you kill them?".
Lord sat down as he said "Because these worthless things are beneath trash, at least trash can be used! Hehe".
Pride crystal was stunned "So...you even trapped me in there?".
Lord's gaze was shifted pass pride crystal "Yes! Because if I hadn't used you as a bait (cheese), the mouse wouldn't have fallen into the trap.
Hehe! So this is called being smart? Lucan lives this way? Amazing! Nothing less could I expect from the last person on my ranking! My one and only rival.
And pride crystal! Here after, your name is Lord crystal! Because pride is below lord, so change your name, got it?".
King sighed "Alright, Since you had yapped enough, shall we-".
Lord interrupted "Yes! We shall begin the fight king!".
King smirked "Begin? Wrong guess, I was about to say Shall we end this fight? I mean Shall I!".
King felt like exploding! Although he had changed his way of pride, his earlier pride still can never be eradicated completely.
Because doing that is literally impossible! Even if fate crystal tries to rewrite it.
Lord stood up, as he pointed above, he said "With this one finger! I can defeat you, try yourself!".
King didn't reply, but suddenly teleported behind Lord, king said "Look at your finger! Is it still there?".
Lord felt suddenly a bit strange as he took a look at his fingers.
King saw his opening as he launched his sneak attack.
But he forgot that pride crystal exists, he entered its range! Sorry lord crystal!
And king saw Lord's body sliced off half, the egoistic and pride, I mean Lord has finally been killed by destiny's heavenly king.
King coughed out a mouthful of blood, he saw him being infected with something, like a poison.
He cursed "Damn this guy! Oh no, I shouldn't swear, my promise...".
He healed himself, the poison's effects instantly vanished.
Even king was stunned "Is it really weak? Otmr I am too strong? Anyways, I have to...do something about this mess".
King's eyes gazed throughout the surroundings, countless dead bodies, seeping blood.
Burning fire, choking smoke, all of them were literally killing the entire planet.
The planet was like holding on to its last breath, trying to stay alive.
King said "Although It doesn't matter to me, because of the promise. I still feel a bit pity for this people! Huh! If only that guy didn't spill his food on lord!".
His vision pierced the sky, he saw a figure closing in.
He squinted his eyes to see the vague figure, a person flew in, he was...
Far away in space.
A spaceship was flying away from the eternal abyss of life and death.
It was Lucan's spaceship.
Fate guy tried desperately to explain the situation to the golden butterflies, but he wasn't able to.
He got an idea as he brought the lifeless golden butterfly and showed it to all of them.
The golden butterflies sensed something as all of them flew closer, fate guy saw a swarm of golden yellow lights rushing towards him.
It was like watching the stars up close, the dazzling light shone over his eyes.
Lighting up his desperation and eradicating the darkness in his eyes.
He felt like a lone person falling down into an endless abyss, finally getting a hand to pull him up.
He succeeded in his task!
He had saved the golden butterfly and Lucan.
But...as he was under control of zacian for too long, his own body rejected him from the moment he got back his consciousness.
But he hid the truth from Lucan, simply to avoid adding burdens over his shoulders.
He felt his life reaching an end, although he had a few more years of lifespan left.
His body rejected him! He smiled gently before taking a look at the golden butterfly and Lucan, who showed signs of turning conscious.
He closed his eyes, and fell down to the ground.
He checked Lucan for one last time before muttering "So...the journey of fate guy! From lord's planet to this abyss.
Finally...comes to an end, hehe! Actually I don't feel angry or sad, instead a strange sensation of joy hits me.
And I don't know why-, Wait! I actually know it, my life was supposed to be ended by lord...but I was saved by Lucan.
And now I have saved him back, so I have-".
Before he could even finish, his body turned pale and lost signs of life.
The fate guy's journey has now come to an end.
In the eternal abyss of life and death, a weak white light shone as it flew out of the debris.
It was life crystal! It was way weaker now, it's place of existence was destroyed, it also lost its partner.
Its strength had fallen to the rock bottom.
It cursed "Damn it all! Due to death crystal's death and my weakness, countless lives are now dying.
All these deaths are because of our collapse!
All of fate's important people are dying one by one, death crystal...Kaol noah...Lord...and fate guy!!! Who is this fate guy?".
Life crystal was in a desperate state, but it had made a blunder, it had noticed the lives of all except its own.
The dead people saw weak life crystal as all of them started to haunt it, life crystal at its peak, could wipe all of them off without even trying.
But...now its condition spoke for itself.
Life crystal was cruelly beaten, it heard many words.
"YOU! YOU ARE THE REASON ALL OF US HAD DIED MULTIPLE TIMES CRUELLY!".
"YES, BECAUSE OF YOU, OUR LOVED ONES SUFFERED MUCH! YOU HEARTLESS STONE!".
Life crystal felt like crying, killing, screaming...it felt all the emotions at once.
It couldn't describe this feeling, it tried to resist, but it couldn't resist all of the dead.
However it wasn't harmed much, because crystals can only be harmed by non-living things or tools.
All these dead people are technically living beings, so their attacks were like trying to cut a tree with a knife.
But due to the strength in numbers, all of the attacks left deep scars on life crystal, it was confused.
"How could fate's writings be overwritten? Who possessed such power? Who had caused this mess and why?".
All these questions twirled around in the mind of life crystal, but suddenly a strange sight etched its eyes.
