【Story】True Ending: Final Battle

Ch. 4　To Alter the Despair

Part 1

“Reveal the Truth”

Crack! The shattering of the last nucleus set free the possessed creatures. Agonizing roars were sent from the black sphere, echoing around in the Pilgrimage. The twisted wails eventually came to a halt, like the explosion sound a plump balloon would make when too much air had been filled into it. The tentacles surrounding the Enochian Tower turned into a violet haze and evaporated into the air.
Sister: It’s defeated!
Hong Ai: Oh! Something’s shining!
Pompeii: That’s Monesis…It’s awoken.
Sacred and brilliant beams of light shone in the middle of the Pilgrimage. Countless golden tentacles stretched from the ground hole and reached the skyline. The lights flickered across the sky like thousands of arrows, brightening up the whole space intermittently.
The tentacles extended from Monesis wavered like a hand fan. With a mere wave, the approaching planets were pushed away from Continent Tarones as if they were blown away by strong winds.
It was an existence stronger than magic and any supernatural power that was beyond the cognition of all creatures on the planet. The miraculous scene left Enoch and his companions in awe. Overwhelmed, they felt as if a tremendous wave was about to hit them at a terrific speed.
Enoch: Is…it over?
Enoch: “No…It’s not done yet…right…someone will be calling me…”
???: Come… My son…Enoch…
Enoch: “Here she is.”
Enoch went straight to the middle of the radiant lightsource, where Monesis was. When Enoch came near, a puff of light turned into a familiar silhouette.
Enoch: …Mother…
Tawil: Enoch, you’re finally here.
Enoch: Who…are you?
Tawil: I am Tawil, the being who created Continent Tarones…
Enoch: “No…she’s lying…I’m pretty sure that mother has already been engulfed by the origin of destruction…This is not my mother…not Tawil.”
Tawil: Yes, Enoch. You’ve encountered so many obstacles on your journey, I’ve been watching all along. Well done, my child.
Tawil came forth trying to embrace Enoch, patting his head. At a step away from Tawil, Enoch raised the staff to conjure elements and slash at her. 
Strangely, no blood, no organs were seen even if her face was cut into half, only a myriad of dark-purple worms were squirming inside.
Tawil: Why…why did you do this to me? I’m your——
???: No! You’re not mother!

Part 2

“Create Miracles”

Enoch: Sister! Ingrid!
Sister: I was curious why you ran away alone. It turns out that you were deceived by this strange creature, such an idiot!
Enoch: I’m not deceived! Surely I know she is not our mother!
Tawil(?): Is that so…Now that my disguise was discovered, I’ll do it by force then.
A huge shadow broke out of the ground behind Tawil. It split into half revealing a black hole full of sharp fangs, and attacked Enoch agilely——Clash! Ingrid stepped forward to defend with her magic staff.
Ingrid: Don’t you dare to hurt him!
Tawil(?): The covenanter of Dreamland…Stop this meaningless resistance…Stay down.
Tawil(?) closed her eyes and uttered a series of superhuman syllables, but things did not go as planned.
Tawil(?): Why was your connection with the Dreamland cut off?…She did it…Bastard!
Tawil(?) went all out to attack Ingrid, who was backed up by Enoch and his sister in no time. As the commotion had caught the attention of other companions, they all rushed over here.
Tawil(?): …Low species, I’d make it easy if you could just be my vessel. But you chose to go against me…Despair is what you deserve.
After speaking, an indescribable scream was sent from the center of the Pilgrimage. At the same time, huge tentacles stretched out from Monesis and slammed on the ground forcefully. The surface, which was already on the verge of collapse, began to crumble, resulting in a huge cavity.
Enoch: Ingrid!
Ingrid: Enoch!
In mid-air, Enoch and Ingrid desperately came closer to each other during the fall. In order to be together, they managed to go against gravity and wind, and finally their hands were holding each other. That warm feeling made them smile. Just as Enoch was about to speak, he was overwhelmed by a figure.
Sister: Brother, hold your horses. This is a public area. Better save the lewd action for later privately.
Enoch: I’m not planning for this at all!
Ingrid: Enoch, look!
Hovering in front of Monesis, Tawil(?) slowly blended into it. Then, blinding light illuminated the entire underground. The falling Enoch gazed at Tawil(?) who was about to be completely fused together with the main body.
Tawil(?): Insignificant species, struggle as much as you want to before your death.
Enoch: …I’ll show you the power of the insignificant! We’ll create miracles!
