(Trails of Cold Steel III ost - Promise of That Day)

Just then, a portal behind us appeared and we were being dragged through it. I was still inside the Divine Knight. The others notice Valimar's armor was golden, unlike the Auric. Valimar landed back on the outside entrance of the fortress. Valimar who held the Ebon Knight who was now lifeless and it became absorbed into Valimar. But after the portal dragged us back here, Ishmelga and I have entered a dark void, but I'm still connected to Valimar. I am batting Ishmelga. Rean and Valimar are unaffected by Ishmelga's malice as I am protecting them. But Ishmelga won't leave until I finish him. I will make sure that he will not possess Rean! And end his curse.

"Rean, Levi!" Alisa called.

"YES! They did it!" Juna exclaimed.

"You won!" Machias said.

"We're so relieved." Emma added.

"Seriously! You two always have to make us worry to very end, don't you?" Sara asked.

"Yeah, but I'm afraid we're not done yet." I replied within Valimar. "Look..."

We saw the Ebon Knight vanish away. But a clash of light and dark from Valimar. The Aura was gleaming with golden light but a dark aura was over it. It's the result of me and Ishmelga are now enter a battle.

"What's going on?" Venti ask In concern. "I sense both light and dark… fighting each other."

"I am fighting Ishmelga right now." I answered. "I am weakening his power and the curse with it. It won't be long before I vanished the curse of Erebonia for good. However… it seems that I am force to fight with Ishmelga in Eternal conflict."

"What?!" Class VII eye widen.

"Ishmelga is being too damn stubborn. But it won't be long before I-"

"How could it all have ended like this?" Alberich asked as he appeared. But he's all Transparent.

"Father?!" Alisa exclaimed as she approached him. "Wh-What's going on?!"

"I am not your father... and you will not see him ever again." Alberich answered. "This body was offered in service to the Ebon Knight. Thus, it shall vanish with it."

"No... You can't..."

Alberich turn to me "You got what you wanted Levi Sullivan. Rejoice in your victory over my demise. Rean Schwarzer. You and your Ashen Knight have won. The hate of the world is in your hands. Do with it whatever you wish."

"No, please..." Alisa begged but it's too late. Alberich disappeared.

"Hmph. Good ridden to that pest..." I muttered

(Trails of Cold Steel IV ost - Even if That Warmth is Small)

"Okay...This just might work." Rean said. "What do you think, Valimar? Can you make it?"

"Yes. All of the powers have converged in me." Valimar replied. "I am ready to become the Great One, and assist Levi and to defeat Ishemlga."

"RELINQUISH IT TO ME!" It boomed. "IT BELONGS TO ME! YOUR SOUL...YOUR ENTIRE BEING!"

"Annoying Pest!" I growled.

"So this is it. The being that ate away at Emperor Dreichels and my father." Rean said. "When the Ebon Knight was corrupted by malice, its logic system awoke as its own self-concious entity. Evil personified, it sought to become an almighty being, controlling humanity by spreading its curse. But now, it's been torn from its physical form and brought to our plane. Making this my one and only chance to destroy it for good."

I then realize what he means.

"Stop right there, Rean! Don't you dare sacrifice yourself for my sake!" I exclaimed.

"I can't allow you to forever be in an eternal conflict with Ishmelga. You won't be able to return back to us if this continues. This is the only way…"

"DON'T YOU DARE! ARE YOU GOING TO BREAK YOUR PROMISE?!"

"Th-There has to be another way for you both!" Machias stated

"I'm afraid... there isn't. I'm sorry, Levi." Rean said.

"Wha-!?" I know what he's going to do. I have no choice."LIKE HELL I'LL LET YOU!"

I reappeared next to Rean and my hand was glowing with my power. And had it go through Rean's chest where his heart is.

"URRRGH!" Rean shout in pained.

"Rean!?" Alisa exclaimed

"WHAT?! NO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Ishmelga voice exclaimed. "STOP IT! NO! NOOOOOOO!"

I used my power and banished all the misma by pulling Ishmelga out of him. Then I pulled myself and Ishmelga out of Valimar. Valimar's armor return to normal. Rean was out of Valimar and was on his knees. His hair and eye color change color. I was holding Ishmelga in my arm as he struggling to break free.

"Rean!" Alisa exclaimed as my friends, and students rush to him.

"Your hair!" Elliot exclaimed

"That means you're no longer the saferfice!" Gaius stated

Rean gasped as he did notice.

"He actually did it..." Rean said in shocked. But then. "Wait... Levi!" Rean look up and looked shocked as everyone else look shocked as they see me holding Ishmelga. My body was already glowing with radient power.

"RELEASE ME! I AM SO CLOSE! RELEASE ME AVATAR!" Ishmelga roared

"Shut up you disgusting existence!" I growled and then look sad at everyone. "Look like it worked. Thanks Aidios for that. But now. I have no choice but to take Ishmelga away from here and destroy him for good."

"W-Wait! Where are you going?!" Venti exclaimed

"Levi! No!" Rean reach his hand out to me with a sad expression on his face. "It was supposed to me be! I'm the one who suppose to destroy Ishmelga for good!"

"Sorry Rean." I said as I close my eyes. "But I can't let you. Ishmelga is in his Astral form now. Which means he can possess you again. And there's no way in hell I'm letting you sacrifice yourself for us. I am Liam's Avatar. I was created to protect you. And I'm going to do just that. You have the power of the Great One. You can give Crow and Millium new bodies so they can be alive again by using the Sacrament Program. I'm going to take Ishmelga through the atmosphere and finish him off for good. Once he is out of this world. I'll use my power and cleanse Erebonia, removing all of his influence for good. I don't know how long it will take... But... If I died taking Ishmelga with me... or never come back. Then tell everyone... that I love you all and I will never forget you."

"Levi, no! You can't do this!" Millium shout.

"Brother, please!" Venti shout in tears.

"Venti... Everyone... Thank you all for bring my friends. Tell everyone else that. And tell Mcburn... I'm sorry. I love you all and I'll never forget you. And I love you so much Rean. Goodbye."

"NO! STOOOOOOOOOOP!" Ishmelga screamed as I trap Ishmelga into a sphere with me and launched myself and him into the atmosphere.

"LEVIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!" Rean screamed.

Goodbye... Rean... Everyone.

I soon reach the Atmosphere. And now... I begin to do one final act to this world.

(Venti's pov)

(Trails of Cold Steel IV ost - Ai No Uta)

A flash of light shine in the sky. Soon that golden light spread through the sky. Descending from the sky was flower petels. Millions of them falling from the sky as the golden light continue to spread. No... He actually did it. The curse is being destroyed for good... with my brother with it. My knees collapse as my tears begin to come out. My brother's friends... and Instructor Rean. They all cried out for my brother. I let out a cry as well as Kurt, Altina and Juna comfort me.

(Liam's pov)

Damn it... This wasn't supposed to be like this! I know Lianne is still here but... I begin to look into the Astral while Class VII, and Cedric are in tears. The Liberal Team look in sadness. Same with the SSS, Angelica's team, Duvalie's team, Aurelia's team, and everyone in the Courageous II. They all express with sad and heartbroken expressions. Towa catches the golden flower (Shape like the Sundrop Flower from Tangled) Her tears came out as Alfin and Elise catches the same flower. Alfin covered her mouth, realized what this means as tears coming from her eyes. Olivert catches the flower and express the sad look on his face. I close my Astral Circle and turn to Class VII, Cedric and Lianne who is looking at the Sky with the sad look on her face. Each and every one of them catches the same golden flower, while Rean has the golden flower with stars sparking on it's petals. Damn it...

"Master..." Makatov turn to me with tears in his eyes.

"I know..." I clenched my fist and then teleport to Class VII."Damn it... This was not supposed to happen... Never did I imagine Levi will be forced to be in eternal conflict with Ishmelga or drag him out of this world's atmosphere." I check my astral circle on Levi's condition. His entire existence will disappear soon! Damnit!. "Damnit!" I close it and then turn to Rean. "Don't you stand there! Get him back!"

Rean was shocked when I shout at him.

"You are the Awakener of the Great One! That can break the shackles that bind you to this world. Only you and Venti can go through the atmosphere since Venti is my avatar. Now hurry! Before his entire existence is erased for good!"

Rean and the others gasped. Rean clenched his fist and turn to everyone.

"Everyone, I'll be back! And I'll bring back Levi as soon as I can! He's a member of our class, he's important to everyone! If we let him die, then we can't live with ourselves!" Rean stated.

"You're right!" Kurt nodded

"Venti, come with me. Only you can accompany for this."

"Right Instructor!" Venti nodded.

"Good luck, Rean. Bring my star pupil back!" Sara command.

"And don't you dare let him die!" Ash added

"Please hurry, he's waiting for you on the other side!" Millum stated

"Please! Before it's too late!" Cedric sadden.

"Go for it, Rean, Venti! Bring back our angel!" Crow replied

"We will!" Rean and Venti nodded.

Rean begin to enter Valimar who became the Great One with Venti accompanying him inside.

"Are you ready, Rean?" Valimar asked.

"Yeah. Let's head to the atnomasphere. And bring Levi back!" Rean answered, "Let's go Valimar!"

"Adknowledge!"

Then Valimar took off and head straight into the atmasphere. I'm counting on you, Rean Schwarzer.

I begin to close my eyes and look into Rean's thought.

'Levi... Just hang in there... I... No... we bring you back! And when we do... I'll give you the talk of the lifetime!' Rean said in his thoughts.


Phew! Sorry about the late arrival for this everyone. I was distracted. Anyway. Here are the two fates for Rean and Levi. Now then. Next time if possible chance. We will meet in Trials of Reverie.
