Final 5

The ocean exploded with a magnitude that was impossible to be counted by a modern device since all of them were melting by the intense heat.

When the immense amount of water and intense heat was combined, it would create a steam explosion.

Yet this explosion was on a scale that was enough to destroy the whole of Osaka. What was even worse, a gigantic tsunami was about to hit the whole coast of Osaka.

This was simply the scene of the end of the world, Judgement day, Doomsday, Day of Resurrection, or The Day of the Lord. It could be called anything, but one thing was for sure, everyone in this city and country might die because of this disaster.

Fortunately, Tsukasa, Nene, Kurono, Touka, Kiriko, and others were working hard to stop this disaster.

"Can you guys hold back a little!?" Kurono screamed, complaining about how frightening her student was.

Everyone was also the same since no one expected the tame battle that would make everyone feel excited would become a disaster that would kill everyone.

What could Tsukasa say?

He could say nothing and stared at Stella helplessly since he knew what kind of state she was in now.

Excessive Awakening.

It was the state where she had entered the boundary of demons and had gone on a rampage.

Stella had crossed that boundary and become a demon, and it made him speechless.

Did she really need to become a demon?

After all, she wasn't in the crisis, and even if she lost this battle, it didn't really matter, right?

Then, why?

He thought for a while and suddenly thought of an answer.

Did she want to marry me that much?

This was the only answer that he could get.

If this wasn't the answer, then it was probably her bottled emotion of feeling angry at him for dating other girls besides her. While this might be a reason, he felt this also wouldn't be the reason since she often shared him with Nene on the bed.

However, whatever the reason was, he knew that he needed to stop her.

As the most talented Blazer in the world, her power was ridiculous. Even if he absorbed all the heat that came from her direction, many still escaped and needed to be stopped by the combination of Nene, Kurono, Kiriko, Edelweiss, and Touka.

While many also decided to help, their help was helpless in front of Stella's power.

If Nene, Kurono, Kiriko, Edelweiss, and Touka were like a giant wall that could protect everyone behind them, then the rest was like small pebbles on the street, showing how insignificant they were in front of overwhelming power.

Yet could they give up? No.

Their stubbornness was only their advantage, and if they gave up, what would they be in the future?

As for the audience and the rest of the ordinary people, they could do nothing and could only pray to many gods they knew, so they wouldn't die. While they might have been preparing to die before, when death was about to welcome them, they were all panicked.

As for Nangou, he was in a weakened state after watching his swordsmanship.

Still, one thing was for sure. The Vermillion Kingdom would have a lot of problems. Yet with Stella's power, who dared to say anything?

'Now, how should I stop her?'

Stella's current state was far from normal.

Unlike his handsome transformation, Stella was simply a monster.

She attained the traits of a dragon or salamander as her skin became black with shining scales in some places, two horns were grown on her head, wings sprouted out from her back, and a long tail extended from her tailbone area.

But he had to say she was beautiful, yet she was also dangerous.

On her body, he could feel a boundless strength, which was enough to destroy anything. The heat from her body was also enough to burn anything. The air, the water, and everything were burnt by the heat that emitted from her body. Even the sea, which was the place she had fallen before, hadn't recovered.

The giant hole was still there, and no matter how much water filled that space, it was unable to fill it since the heat from Stella's body was too intense.

Yet the worst thing wasn't all of that. Instead, it was the gravity that emitted from her body.

The reason why everyone in this world could walk normally on the earth was that the earth had gravity and attracted everyone, so they could walk on the ground normally. However, Stella also emitted a gravitational pull, which was comparable to the irresistible attraction of a planet. causing the gravity in this world to be a mess.

Everyone was pulled in her direction, and whatever was pulled was burnt into nothing.

Everything was in chaos, and no one could stop her.

It was like 666. The legendary being was known as the Apocalyptic Beast, which appeared on earth.

"Ugh... I felt regret now..." Kiriko cried, feeling regret for giving Stella an injection of Lukifer. If she knew that the situation would be like this, she wouldn't try to turn her into an Exceed.

"He can win, right?" Kurono looked at everyone with a hopeful expression.

"......"

Everyone was silent, and they didn't know what to say. His swordsmanship was amazing, and his strength was too, but Stella's power was on a different scale. She was born to destroy this world. She was the incarnation of destruction.

In other words, the goddess of destruction.

Human was too foolish, and they had destroyed this world, so it might be time for them to be destroyed by the earth, heaven, and fate.

Stella was the embodiment of their will to destroy this world.

This was the thought of the majority, but the minority, especially the person that knew about her, knew that this stupid yet lewd girl needed help.

"He can win," Edelweiss said.

"......"

Kurono, Nene, Touka, Kiriko, and the other girls looked at Edelweiss for a while, wondering when she would appear.

Also, why did this woman seem so close to Tsukasa?

Did that bastard get close to another girl when they were gone?

However, they didn't have time to think about this problem since the fight between Tsukasa and Stella was about to reach its climax.

"Awaken!"

The familiar state that he showed to everyone yesterday was shown once again.

While Stella came to destroy this world, Tsukasa came to save this world.

Sara didn't care about their surroundings and kept drawing without blinking her eyes.

"Mahapralaya."

His voice might not be loud, but it was calm and clear. It was like a voice that brought them salvation.

Stella was suddenly caught in the sphere, trapped there, but with her power, it was only a time before she escaped. However, he didn't waste his time. His Drying Pole scattered and returned to his cubic. The cubic on his hand floated into the distant sky, illuminating everything with a blue radiance.

At that moment, the radiance slowly formed into a massive sword. It was so massive that it might even reach the American continent.

Everyone could only look at this sword in a daze.

Even Sara also dropped her book since this scene was too breathtaking.

As he moved his hand, the sword moved down, annihilating the devil on Stella's body.

Soon, everything was at peace.

Stella returned to how she used to be before she fell from the sky since she was so weakened, but before she fell into the sea, she was caught by Tsukasa. In his arms, she felt warm and boundless energy enter her body. Her eyes moved slightly before she regained consciousness.

"Tsukasa?"

"Welcome back." He kissed her forehead.

"Thanks."

"It's okay. I am your man, after all."

Stella smiled and snuggled since his presence was the only thing that could give her comfort.

While they were enjoying their time together, the host also regained from his stupor as he shouted, "The-The winner of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival is the Sakra, Kugayama Tsukasa!"

"OOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!"

On the ruin, everyone cheered loudly at his name and at the champion of this event.
