Finally.

We we're at the top of the tower. Astre had floated up on top of it to give me an overhead view of it. And it was gradiose. It was shaped flatly and circular almost like a disc. It had ancient latin and greek writings all over it which symbolized the beginning of all humanity.
It was truly an Arena...

However I did notice something frightening ... Or lack thereof.
"There's nothing here..." I said to astre as she descended downward.
" Soleus doesn't want his presence to be known. So he'll only show up once his Power has been disturbed. Meaning when I drop you they'll be no going back..." Astre explained.
I looked down we we're hovering about 40 feet above the tower.

"Once again. Are you sure you wish to fight him ?" She asked me
"..." I paused.
I thought about everything that had transpired in the past month and even years...

Everything Seemed to come together at once... The demons. The conflict Between humans.
My Mother's death. Iana's and Cecilia's injuries... Natsumi's Ambience...
But the question is: Could I even defeat soleus...? Could I be the savior of Humanity?

No...
I can't hestitae now. I have to keep moving forward and grasp my destiny and Hope. If I don't... The world is doomed. I did not come this far, just to give up... I have to defeat Soleus for the sake of the world.

"I'm Ready drop me down..." I said in confidence.
Astre simply nodded her head and let go of her grip.
I could feel myself slipping out of her grasp as I soon was freefalling downward.

"Good luck child. What you are doing is extremely Brave... And please remember that I'll always be with you."
Those were astre's final words to me.
I took them to my heart as I was about to land.
I could confront soleus knowing that my guardian angel was watching over me.

*click clack*

My feet made that sound as I landed on the Cold desolate arena. Everything just felt so off about it. There was only a brief whirlwind before I had landed but Once again, Nothing.
There was no sound
No smell
No feelings
No person.

... Or at least thats what I thought.
"...Ah!"
I felt a cold hand on my back.
I grasped my sword and turned around quickly!

"Lilith..." A female voice was heard.

I couldnt comprehend what I was seeing at the moment. An almost ghostly figure was standing there. Just standing there.
It had black hair, blue eyes and was wearing same clothes and her.
My friend- Myra

"Myra I-Is that you?" I said.
"You shouldn't have come here..."

As soon as she said the tower began to shake. Everything became pitch black for a moment as the world seemed to became turbulent. An almost tornado-like swirl began to consume the tower.
Multiple voices could be heard speaking a language I couldnt understand whirled around me.

"Myra, What the hell is happening...?" I said
"he is coming."
"Who is he?" I asked
"Soleus."

She said bluntly. Myra who was almost non-emotional Compared to the girl I had met before.
Like she had soul had been taken or something.
But I didn't have time to think about that. The tower suddenly and weirdly shifted to the right.
Causing me to lose my balance.
"Ah!"
It didn't seem to affect myra though as she was in the same position uprooted.

"M-Myra. What the hell is wrong W-With Y-Y-You?"
I said as I was shaking.
"I found out the truth" She replied.
"T-The Truth?Myra what are you talking about?" I asked desperately.
"Lilith... The reason why I cant Remember anything is because... I don't exist."
"You don't exist...? "
I didn't understand what she meant.
"Perhaps I wasn't clear enough." She looked me in the eyes and began to come closer to me.

"I only exist as A fragment of Soleus "

"..."
I was speechless.
"I was seperated By the angels out of Soleus's heart in order to lead you here and to give you a reason to fight." She explained.
"So B-Basically I was being used by the angels..." I cried.
"Not used. More like nudges in the right direction."She replied.
I felt angry and betrayed. How could astre and her angel buddies use me like this? Was I and the rest of my friends just pawns to them in the first place?

"Please Lilith don't feel bad. Soleus is an evil and terrifying being who will wipe out the rest of humanity if given the chance. The angels only did what was in their best interest." She exclaimed
She then groomed my hair.

"Please defeat soleus! You have my blessing." She said to me.
*smooch* Myra leaned and kissed me on my forehead. Her body began to fade away and I was soon staring at nothing.

"...For you, Myra. I'd do anything."

The ground began to erupt as like nothing before. Lightning struck the ground and typhoons began to form.
Soleus was Coming.

I was scared. Even more than before. Now Soleus was coming to fight me Personally. What would he look like? Was he powerful? Would he just insta-kill me?
All this buzzing and pressing question burdened my mind as the world around fell apart.

The ground began to shake even harder than before and the sky got even more darker. It was almost Pitch black as Almost No light got through to the tower.
Lightning and typhoons twirled around the towers like dancing girls in a forest. The whirlwind got even faster as it thrashed around my hair like a ragdoll
*CRASSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHH*
The earth beneath the tower burst open.

A blinding flash of light occured as
The swirl Of wind turned into a Orb of Black mass. It convulsing morbidly, Throbbing Like…. Almost a monster like throb. It made a blood curdling sound as It did this, It was akin to a Human getting it's flesh torn apart.
Finally It stopped and A flash of light Hit my eyes.

*GRRRRRRRR*
An ear piercing growl was heard from it. I Gripped my head in panic as it did. It sounded like nothing I had ever heard before. Not even a demon sounded like that.
But then…. I saw it… Soleus... Himself.

I can barely describe him, He was just so monstrous that I tried to block him from my view, eyesight and memory.
H-He was pure Black and Encompassed the whole tower…. He had to be at least 20 stories long…!
He probably was coiling his body around the tower with his dragon-Like body.

Scales cold as ice that blazes bright as an ever flickering flame... Eyes that turn skin into a sickly pallor, Claws able to lacerate even the sturdiest to mere ribbons of flesh and bone, blood so black that night held an intense radiance that could blind your eyes. With his tongue he could smell your dread and taste your fear... A mouth that had the souls of his victims and could open on all four sides to devour you... Tendrils that stuck out of his body like An Impaled Human on a knit.
He was a demon above gods... A Demon God
