When the one divine being left who had hope in the world of Remnant decided to give up, Remnant was truly damned. Chronoa was mostly focusing on getting to her followers on Remnant. As for Cinder, the cult had brought the chaos as plan, but she did not planned for them to free the Grimm King and break the barrier between the Voyd and Remnant.

Everything went to hell in a handbasket.

Deaths all around. Vale in Remnant, the Grimm running rampant, and now the threat of the Grimm King who publicly thanked Cinder for free him and his people.

o-O-o

Mercury was packing his shit because he did not want to stay any longer. The public pretty sure wanted Cinder, the White Fang, and the Church's heads on pikes. He was not going to get killed by an angry mob.

"What have we done?! We're unleashed a plague on Remnant!" Emerald said panicked. "Where the hell are we even going to go?!"

"Anywhere but here!" Mercury said before taking her hand.

Mercury did not trust the cult or the new teammate to replace Neo. He had been forming an exit strategy the moment things went to shit. He hated to be the White Fang right now.

o-O-o

Sienna Khan was also packing her things as Mara was piling lien in a briefcase. It was over. Adam's actions had torpedoed the White Fang into the Voyd itself. People were quitting in droves, and Sienna did not even protest.

"My lady, I was able to secure one of our older Bullheads that doesn't have our logo on it." Mara said as Sienna slung her bag over her shoulder. "I still need a location for us to go to."

"Mistral's in a talespin, Vale's on fire, and there's no way we can go to Atlas. You think Ghira will let us into…"

"With all due respect, if anyone found out we were there, they'd hand us over. Plus, that's the most obvious place they'll look for us." Mara remarked as Sienna snarled.

Before she could swear in anger, an explosion rocked the headquarters signaling their cue to get the hell out of there.

o-O-o

Pyrrha was fighting for dear life seeing that she saw her duty to save Vale. Though, she saw the situation as even more dire given that Cinder saw it fit to team up against the Grimm King. Not that it helped.

"What's the matter? Tired?" He asked as Pyrrha fell to one knee coughing up blood. "Yet you glare at me with the intent to fight me. You really remind of a man who eluded me long ago…"

Cinder lunged with a glass sword only for him to shatter it with a chop before a closed-fist punch to Cinder's face shattering the last of her aura. The enlarged seer Grimm was broadcasting the events across the world.

"But you are pathetically predictable." He said planting his foot on Pyrrha's skull. "People of Remnant! If this is what your best is, you have lost your touch! I, Noire the Grimm King, seek an actual challenge."

Pyrrha screamed out as he grinded his foot on her head. All the others could do is watch, but Jaune and Ruby were arriving on what was left of Beacon to fight.

"Get off of her!" Jaune screamed as Cinder looked up at their 'saviors'.

"We're doomed." Cinder groaned.

The moment Noire lain eyes on Ruby, a wide grin on his face and hope came up…only for his hope to quickly die.

"No, you…may have Silver Eyes, but you are not the spawn of Azure. I don't even think you are even a threat to me." Noire said with a sigh.

"Hey, I'm talking to you!" Jaune said only for the King to continue to ignore him.

He turned to the Seer and boomed, "Remnant, if this is all you got, I may as well raze half the planet. However, I will hold back my wrath…bring me the heir to the Azure clan!"

"Sire, it seems according to our agents…the clan has been snuffed out by Salem…and Ozpin's inaction has led to the death of Mao." Sazu, the Grimm King's retainer, stated slithering up.

"No! The great Mao, the man who could give a challenge and made it feel alive is dead?!" Noire said horrified.

"Murdered by a man called Adam Tarsus, a faunus." Sazu said. "Supposedly, Mao has a son…but we can not find hide nor hair. We have to assume he is also dead."

Noire boiled with rage as he let a shout with his body given a shockwave blowing everyone around him away except the Seer and Sazu.

"My perfect challenge is gone!" Noire screamed before flying towards Vale. "RRAARRRHHHHH!"

Adam, who was watching, decided not to put his sword now in Blake. He ran away missing Yang's attempted attack by scant inches. He did not want to be there when Noire showed up in Vale.

[New Kingdom, Neo Terra]

"It had taken some time to adjust to the system, but thanks to some hard work. We have a place to call home." Cologne said looking over what had been done.

The pilgrims had all looked upon what was finally completed. What Chronoa led to was ruins with a weathered castle and a Time Gate. Yuki's discovery of what the Minecraft System was and how it was tied to aura led to making things easier for himself and the people. Everyone had access to their own 'screen' that came with an inventory coming off as a UI due to the system making carrying and storing anything a breeze. Yuki's system was a bit more advanced given his semblance to where Serena called the Creativity Control.

"Serena, status report." Yuki remarked.

"The borders have been established with the monsters unable to get through with the guard formations. The castle is fully repaired and livable with an electrical system set up. The surrounding land is safe enough for people to work into the night to build homes." Serena said. "What this land, no kingdom, needs is the fitting name."

So far, only the castle and the town near it were somewhat capable. Originally, the settlers had dug in with an underground cave to sleep in that had culminated with a house on top. With everyone now able to go out to build their own, one of the Amazons opted to keep that place as a bed and breakfast.

"I had always fantasized about it. A dawn of a new kingdom unlike the others I had seen. Hail to the new kingdom…Azurite." Yuki said looking to a blank flag. "And I have a design in mind for the flag."

"Then allow to say…" Roman said taking a puff of his cigar. "Hail to the king, Yuki."

"Alongside the queens." Ivory said as Yuki worked on the flag's design.

Yuki would not rule without his leading team. As he worked on the insignia for the kingdom which he planned to be a pair of silver blades with a blue flame behind them, he briefly thought of Remnant only to roll his eyes.

"I have more important things to do." Yuki thought.

(A/N: Yes, Pyrrha lives even if she's probably crippled. The coming ideas is for certain people to find 'holes' that lead to Neo Terra. Remnant's going to be around for a while later before the plug is pulled. And yes, Cinder does get away.)
