~Ciara… can you hear me?~ Ciara and her friends powerlessly lay on the ground, all of them rendered immobile by a mere sleight of Legris' hand. In the face of such a powerful adversary, they stood no chance. 'H-how can I still hear your thoughts? Legris said he eliminated you.' Ciara's thoughts trailed. Her mind was a mess, same as her body, but she struggled to maintain her connection with the voice in her head. The voice of her Constellation. "Legris knows a lot, but he does not know everything.…-

The Constellations were powerless. It was a strange, unforeseeable turn of events for them, considering how they were regarded as the strongest beings in the entire Aether Tree just moments earlier. And now, with the coming of the end, they had become nothing more than oversized representations of impotence. They could do nothing to the entity before them. "I suppose it's my turn." They could only despair. "." Bypassing the laws of time and space, a vast field of darkness suddenly expanded from…

~BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!~ The massive surge of Aether roared as it once again broke down concepts and charged towards Legris. This time, however, the rain of energy was far stronger than the one from earlier. Not only did it contained the sheer might of all twelve Constellations, but its bountiful output was nearly triple the initial blast. The result was a gaping explosive flare of power that could devastate universes upon mere collision. Still… ~WHISH!~ … Even that was insufficient. "My, my,…

Celebration was imminent. The potential greatest threat that the Aether Tree had ever encountered had been squashed. The home world that they feared for had been protected in their absence by the unyielding resistance of the ones they left behind. Everyone they loved was safe. Both the mortals and Constellations were incredibly joyous. However, this happiness was cut short almost as soon as they gave their sighs of relief and congratulated one another. After all, the darkness… the abomination……

"Let's go!" Power surged from all three of them—Kuzon, Serah, and Edward. Fragments of light and clusters of Aether danced around them, blazing and roaring with such intensity that the entire world within nowhere began to tremble. The exalted force that their combined strength generated was beyond frightening. It was definitely more than enough to collapse their target. 'N-no… no don't…!' Ciel begged, seeing so much power that she could not comprehend. She knew that this time, for sure, they…

Darkness. A place of no light, no sound, no life. Only fleeting thoughts flowed in the transient stream of sentience, teetering on the edge of existence and nonexistence. 'So I lost… huh?' Stefan could feel nothing any longer. It felt like he no longer had a body. It was only a matter of time before his mind was gone too. 'I guess this is the end.' In one's last moments, they tend to remember their regrets while going over their life. That wasn't the case for Stefan. He didn't seem to have any…

The clash had reached a crescendo. The multiple hits and disruption of Kinetic Energy had rendered Stefan completely invalid. The fight had tilted completely in his opponent's favor. All seemed to be concluded. Until… ~ZZZTTTTTTZZZZZ~ … A spark ignited within Stefan. 'Haaaa…' Despite his body being disconnected from his neural network, Stefan found himself smiling. '… It's finally ready.' The Spell he had been working on in the background—his Primeval Magic. Normally, he would need to…

'H-how did he…?!' Stefan knew he didn't have the luxury of time based on what had just happened now. It was too dangerous to be in such close proximity with the enemy. Stefan instantly realized that and did the only sensible thing he could at that moment. Right now, his priority was getting away from him as soon as possible. 'Blue!' Blue warped space, whether to cause teleportation or shred his targets into bits under spatial pressure. Stefan knew the latter wasn't going to work on his opponent, so…

Tense silence filled the vacuum of space as both parties stared at each other. On one end was the man with the long cloak, with his hood already taken off. He had a determined smile on his face, though glimmers of amusement still rang deep within his eyes. Opposite him was Stefan, now enlightened on how to improve—resolved to win this very brief exchange. 'Everything! I must take account of everything!' With that in mind, Stefan decided to properly implement everything he had been taught, but also…

. It only had one purpose—one goal. Consuming everything in its path, swallowing them to an empty void that led nowhere. By utilizing both Aether and Nether, Stefan had managed to create an anomaly around him that ensured anything that moved close to him was consumed by a milder version of The Hollow. On the grand scale of Primeval Magic, however, his power was absolute. Invincible! … Or so he had thought. "Your Magic is impressive and well-refined. But it's too simple." The man…
