(Trails into Reverie ost - The Garden of Beginnings)
"Warning, Warning to all visitors. Elysium attempted to breach 7562 times. Each attempt is more fierce than the last."
"Another one..." Zhongli muttered. "Elysium... no... the Administrator is indeed aware of your presence and plans to make sure everyone who gains strength does not either survive or prevent further training. Regardless, this isn't looking good."
"Yeah. Especially since we been upgrading our skills in battle and learning new tricks that this guy fears we have a chance to turn the tide of battle." Aether nodded.
"Yeah, we got him on the ropes." Nadia nodded.
"Does that also mean we're allowed to head to the next stadium?" Swin asked
"Affirmative. Permission granted to enter the Reverie Corridor's Fifth Stratum. May you seize the hope to overcome the impossible over the course of your trials."
"All right, then let us take the time we have and hone our skills in battle." Chun-Li said.
"Ooh yeah! Let's do this everyone!" Terry smirked
"I have to say, Noel, I never expected that you would be so bold when you told everyone that you love Renne back in Area Zero Depth." Nadia grinned. "I bet Renne must be blushing."
"Ahh... Right." Noel scratched his cheeks blushing. "I got a bit passionate because of Adam. But he really did piss me off with his ideals and farce. Honestly, I'm sick of the bastard when me, Campanella, and Minerva killed him and his goons who follow his belief."
"Can't say I blame you. I can't believe some guy would go so far." Swin sighed. "You said his hatred came from the discrimination of his people in Remnant and because of someone, right?"
"Yeah. Jacque Schnee and the humans of Remnant are terrible people. Discrimination is a huge problem. The Republic of Calvard is no different." Noel nodded. "Adam faces many inhumane behaviors from humans. And the Schnee family... no... Jacques Schnee was the one who helped cause that trigger."
"So his actions against humans were indeed out of his hatred. I can't help but feel his actions were justified in a sense. But he has chosen the wrong path to follow, which leads to his death. Well, he earn it from all the bullshit he pulled."
"Yeah. I heard the White Fang Leader Sienna Khan did encourage Adam, but now she starting to regret it because she wanted Faunus to be equals too. And Adam's method became too extreme." Noel said. "I heard that Sienna wanted to get that right by forcing humans through Fear. But that only ended up making it worse. Well, lesson learned as they say."
"I suppose so. So what are you gonna do now since you confessed your feelings to Renne?" Nadia asked with a grin.
"I-I haven't confessed anything!" Noel blushed. "B-Besides, it doesn't count when I was making a point!"
"Oh, reaaaly?"
Swin sweatdrop. "Knock it off, Nadia."
"So Adam is dead." Blake said solemnly.
"Yes. Noel slaughtered him so that you can now feel at peace with yourself after what he did." Renne nodded. "I wouldn't mind slaughtering that savage beast myself. But Noel gave him a brutal end."
"I see... Not sure how I feel about this..." Blake lay her back on the ledge. "I wanted Adam to be arrested... but I know he can escape from jail... I don't want to be like him when it involves killing."
"Knowing Noel, I assume he would call you weak. Because sometimes you have to take the life of others to protect. If you can't understand that, then you don't have what it takes."
"Sounds like something he'll say. But you're right. I owe him my thanks."
"I'm just glad that we won't see him again. At least. I hope we don't see him again." Renne struggled.
"Well then, Iron Valiant, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am your trainer now. But I suspected that you do not trust me, correct?" Rufus asked
"Gall." Iron Valiant nodded its head.
"Understandable. But rest assured, given time. I hope we can forge our bonds through trust through time. What say you that we have a sparing match to test our skills."
"..." Iron Valiant stood there until it summoned its shiny blade.
"I'll take that as a yes then. Speaking off. Do you like to be called Iron Valiant? Or should I give you a proper name?"
"Gal-Gal-Gardevoir! Gallade!"
"Hmm... A Paradox Pokemon that is both Gardevoir and Gallade. Perhaps has both of its mindsets. I hope I can learn more about your character."
"So, Lloyd. How are your skills holding up with your Tonfus?" Ryu asked as he was chatting with Lloyd.
"I've been improving my skill thanks to Tager during my time as a fugitive in the Empire's eyes. But above all else, I've improved much." Lloyd answered.
"I thought so. Have you tried other fighting styles than techniques from the police academy?"
"No. Why do you ask?"
"Well, the enemy might be aware of your fighting style but why not give them the elements of surprise? I can teach you a couple of new moves that can help you improve as well as your sense through training. The Reverie Corrior doesn't have time so perhaps we can use this place to help you improve both your body and mind further. Think you're up for the challenge?"
"Hmm... I've learned some swordplay from Emblem Lucina... But I'm mostly using my tonfus."
"Tonfus and Hand-to-hand Combat are both similar styles. Perhaps we can refine them with some of my moves I can teach you."
"Cool. In that case, teach me, Master Ryu." Lloyd smiled.
"Haha." Ryu chuckled. "Just call me Ryu, Lloyd."
"Alert, Alert. All visitors are advised to take caution."
"Why, what's going on?" Rean asked
"Unknown entities pass through the barrier and are located in the Fifth Stadium. Identities are unknown. All visited are advised to halt going to the fifth stadium until the investigation is cleared."
"How could that be possible?" Zhonglirubsb his chin. "There's no way they can easily pass through without me noticing..."
"Hmm... Then how about we investigate what's going on ourselves?" Levi asked. "This could also be a good opportunity for us."
"Are you sure? This may be dangerous."
"Danger is our middle name at this rate." Ragna smirked. "Besides, we've faced tough foes, so how is this one different?"
"But what passes the barriers may be dangerous..." Acheron stated. "I should go into the Stadium along with those who plan on going"
"Very well. I'll be counting on you. Anyone else can go?"
(BGM ended)
Later...
(Trails into Reverie ost - Mysterious Elements)
Rean, Ragna, Noel, Sora, Levi, Lloyd, Rufus, and Acheron arrived at the Mid-Boss Room as they walked up the stairs.
"Phew. Those Monsters are getting more and more creative with their fights." Sora sighed as he rolled up his arms. "I'm getting a lot stronger than I thought."
"Well, it IS a training ground for us to grow stronger. But I have been thinking. Is this like taking a shortcut?" Noel asked
"No, I don't think so. This training facility will help improve our skills and our weaknesses. Is that not the same for the training you have been doing every day?" Emblem Loewe asked.
"True. So who's gonna be this time?"
"Whoever they are, they're no match for us." Ragna smirked as he cracked his knuckles. "So bring it on!"
They arrived at the stairs and saw a middle-aged man with a white beard wearing a white cloth around himself.
"What... the..." Rufus blinked as Emblem Byleth appeared next to him.
"A...Man?"
"Augh..." The man groaned as he opened his eyes and got back on his feet, muttering to himself. "The next time I accept his invitation... I'll refuse unless it's important."
"A... man?" Lloyd blinked. "Wait, why is he dressed like that."
"Hmm... Why does he look familiar?" Sora hummed.
"Zeus?!" Palutena gasped.
"Hm?" Zeus looked up at the ceiling. "Oh, I recognized that voice. Is that you Palutena?"
"You know this man, Palutena?" Rean asked.
"Oh, Zeus! Hercules' Father!" Sora's palm fist as he lends in his back. "But... he doesn't look like the Zeus that I remember."
"That is because I am the origin of all the Zeus throughout the multiverse." Zeus explained.
"The original Zeus?" Levi blinked.
"Like all Zeus, he's the King of the Gods who rules over Olympus." Palutena said
'Seriously?! How many gods will I end up meeting?' Rean thought
"But this version of Zeus is nothing but a scoundrel! Feel free to go all out with this guy!"
"Palutena, now I'm crush. I thought the time we spent together was special." Zeus sighed
"Oh, you say that to every girl, be it goddesses or humans."
"But I'm more curious to know why the original Zeus is here in this universe." Zhongli asked
"It's not like I have a choice." Zeus muttered.
"What was that?"
"Oh, it's because I've sensed something that came from here. I'm sure I'm not the only one who notices."
'The Chaos Heart.' Levi thought.
(BGM ended)
"Ah, such. That is why I am here." Zeus grins as a lightning channel in his hand. "To see if you are capable of handling the threat before you."
"So you wish to test us?" Rean drew his Tachi as everyone and their Pokemon took their battle stand.
(God of War 3 ost - Brothers of Blood)
'Hold on...' Acheron narrowed her eyes. 'What does he mean by that?'
"Oh, that reminds me, you there. The woman with the purple hair." Zeus chuckled. "What's your name?"
"Don't even think about it."
"Shut down... thanks a lot Palutena..." Zeus muttered

As the rain of lightning rains down, Zeus summons lightning bolts and extends the range as he aims and fires electricity toward Decidueye.
"Deciiid." Deciueye grunted a bit as it wasn't super effective much as Decidueye disappeared into the portal and then reappeared and tackled Zeus by pinning him down to the ground with Phantom Force.
Decidueye flew away as Zeus got back on his feet and then fired a stream of lightning toward Rufus. Rufus thrusts attack to block the attack with Emblem Byleth. Noel summoned water blades to hover over Zeus and then aim at him, but he noticed and raised his hand to fire electricity to block the attack, then took the opportunity as Noel along with Emblem Loewe lung and slash through him, then both took turns slashing around him.

"RUAAAAAAUGH!" Zeus roared as the ice shattered and then fell on his back.
(BGM ended)
Noel and Emblem Loewe unengaged as they turn to Zeus.
"That was handled well." Emblem Loewe as he noticed Noel was shaken. "Noel? Are you—"
"THAT WAS SO COOOOOL!" Noel yelled with sparkling eyes.
(Mario and Luigi Paper Jam ost - Comedy/Funny going on.)
Emblem Loewe blinked. "What?"
"I can't believe I actually wielded Loewe's Kernviter! It was so cool! I was so jealous of Renne because she has you—I mean it's okay since I have Mother's Ring—but to be able to Loewe's Kernviter is something I wanna hold for so long since I found out he's an Emblem! Ahaha! I can cross that out on my list!"
Emblem Loewe sweatdrop. "Well, at least you're happy."
The Team sweatdrop.
"Well at least one of us was excited after the battle." Levi scratching his cheek.
"Well, I don't blame him. Since he does adore his mentor like he does with his mother." Emblem Riku said as everyone nodded.
"Heh. Jusis was like this when I tutored him in Court Fencing." Rufus chuckled.
"Ahem!" Zeus groaned as he got back on his feet. "*sigh* All right. I believe I'm done with this place. Goodbye." He then vanished as the barrier disappeared.
"All right, now we can enter the next floor." Lloyd said.
"Now let's see which boss this one is next." Rean said. "But first... let's heal ourselves."
(BGM ended)
Meanwhile in the Reverie Garden...
Zhongli rub his chin as Mewtwo notices.
"Something amiss, Zhongli?" Mewtwo asked
(Trails into Reverie ost - Mysterious Element)
"It's about Zeus. No... Not just him I've sensed. There's another God who somehow managed to flip past my barrier." Zhongli said. "It should not be possible for him to get through."
"Are you suggesting there may be a stronger power involved?" Rachel asked
"That is most likely the case. But the question is... who else could have that level of power to pass through my barrier?"
"Could it perhaps be the Chaos Heart?" Palutena asked.
"No. If it was, I would have indeed noticed it. As well as a breach within my barrier. I checked earlier and there was no sign of any breach. Zeus's power should not be possible for him to breach through undetected. Perhaps the other God? Or... someone with a higher level... but who... but something else that bothers me. Why would Zeus be here of all places? Hmm... There should not be possible unless..." Zhongli had an ! over his head. "Did... someone put him there? Who could have that power?"
Later...
"All right, we made it to the—" An ominous aura washes over the group. "..!" Rean flinched.
"What... was that?" Levi felt a sweat coming down from his cheek.
"I don't know... but this smell..." Acheron close her eyes as she readied her Odachi. "Come on." She said as they walk up the stairs and see a white skin woman with a kimono.
"A... eastern woman?" Lloyd asked
The Woman hissed as see turn to the group. "So... you've arrived."
Palutena gasped. "That can't be...! Everyone, watch out! That's no ordinary goddess! That's Izanami! A Japanese Goddess of Death!"
"A Death Goddess this time?!" Lloyd gasped.
"Ahh. I thought I've sense other gods within this realm." Izanami looking up the ceiling. "Palutena. It been awhile. I heard Medusa was revived. You must have your hands full, hmhmhm."
"Don't mind me. Unless you have something to do with it." Palutena said.
"No. Of course not."
"How did you get in here, Izanami?" Zhongli asked.
"Unfortunately, I cannot answer that question. But I am here for... death. The souls of these men and—" Izanami paused at the sight of Acheron and Levi. "Oh? Well now this is interesting. The aura you both possess."
Acheron glared as she stop in front of Levi. "Keep your eyes off of him."
"Ahaha! And who are you to make me girl? I am a goddess who has power over death. I can even remove immortality, and even grant immortality to the likes of mortals. But I digress. I happen to be in a bad mood right now. Do me a favor and I'll let you all live."
"You want us to face you in battle?" Rufus asked
"Correct. Lose this battle and your life will be lost." Izanami grinned.
(BGM ended)
"Ahaha. But who though?" A voice asked as Hades Izanami appeared behind the group.
(Blazblue ost - Premotion)
"What the—?!" Lloyd jumped as Hades Izanami flew pass the team.
"You..." Izanami stare in amusement. "You are... death. As I am."
"I am also Izanami. A pleasure to meet another incarnation to death."
"Yes. Indeed." Izanami grinned. "However... compared to I, you are nothing more than a clone. While I am the true incarnation of death."
"Hehe. I will not deny that. However, the power of death is still the same within me. Be it a clone, or the real thing. But." Izanami's eyes glow as she dark grins. "Compared to I, I am the superior version of death."
"You? Ahahaha!" Izanami laughed. "Oh, what blunder. You think yourself above a true goddess?"
"You forget that I, too, am a goddess. Have you sought to reduce the world into nothing?" Hades: Izanami asked
"Why does that matter? Death comes to all living beings. It's only a matter of time."
"Perhaps. Or were you avoiding my question?"
"Hehehe." Izanami giggled as she and Izanami stared at each other while the others looking at each other. "Shall we have our duel?"
(BGM ended)
Hades: Izanami smirked, tilting her head as her clothes change to her Central Fiction attire with the Yasakani no Magatama halo on. "Yes."
(Samurai Warrior 5 ost - Honnoji (Oda))
Goddess of Death - Izanami
Izanami brought out her stickers as she and Hades: Izanami lung at each other with dark energy and clash their fist/weapons, causing a powerful shockwave, powerful enough to almost blow everyone away.
"Whoooooooa!" Lloyd and Sora were blown away as Levi, Rean, Acheron, Rufus, and Ragna held their ground as the Altaria, Pawmot, Decidueye, and Gallade shielded their eyes.
Izanami and Hades: Izanami moves at insane speed, clashing with each other until both of them push each other away. Izanami sent out slash projections toward Hades: Izanami but she backhanded them as her Matagama threw projections toward her. Izanami forms a barrier and then summons a dark portal underneath Hades: Izanami shoots out a dark red beam. Hades: Izanami shields herself with her arms and then Izanami lungs toward her to slash her.
"Hmph!" Izanami slid and then she channeled dark energy and threw it at Izanami as she deflected it.
Izanami threw her sicklers, forming boomerangs around Izanami, and then slashed her, but she leaped over gracefully and raised her hand, summoned a skull, and threw it toward Izanami creating a white and black explosion. Izanami shielded herself with her arms until Izanami teleported and high-kicked Izanami into the air and then summoned ghosts to aim toward her and then explode on her. Izanami summoned skeletons around Hades: Izanami as she look at them and then the skeleton jumped on her, only for Izanami to snap her finger and send a shockwave to blow them all away, disintegrating at Izanami lung at Hades: Izanami for a slash.
Hades: Izanami dodged gracefully and then threw a jab attack upper split kick and then palm thrust her Izanami to push her away and then raised her arms to summon shadow hands to grab and drag Izanami and slam her hard to the wall.
"Auhg!" She winched as more shadow hands pinned her to the wall until Izanami broke free by creating a shockwave.
Izanami sent waves of darkness at Hades: Izanami as she tilts her body to dodge and then Izanami lungs toward her with dark energy blades. She slashes Hades: Izanami but she dodges dodging until she manages to hit her, combo slashes her then slashes her away as she summons skeletons to grab hold of Hades: Izanami.
Hades: Izanami's eyes flash as the skeletons shatter and Izanami summons a black tornado underneath her and then flies toward Izanami as she responds in kind and clashes, creating another shockwave. They slash, dodge, and swing at each other repeatedly as Hades: Izanami back kicks, but Izanami ducks, and then X slashes her, but Hades: Izanami jumps over and summons a ghost skull to bite her but Izanami blocks with her sicklers.
Izanami pushed back the attack as Hades: Izanami rotated clockwise and slashed with dark energy as Izanami shielded herself but got cut wounds. Izanami summoned dark portals and they fired rays of darkness at Hades: Izanami formed a barrier around herself and then lung at Izanami with dark energy on her right hand. Hades: Izanami slammed her hand toward Izanami but she vanished into darkness and then reappeared above Hades: Izanami and kicked her down as she channeled dark energy and fired a stream of darkness, causing an explosion that expended.
"Ahaha! Is that all you got?" She asked as Hades: Izanami teleported behind her.
"Not even close." Hades: Izanami smirked as she channeled dark energy and slammed it onto Izanami.
"Augh!" She yelled and slammed to the wall.
Hades: Izanami channeled another dark energy as she fired a laser beam toward Izanami, causing a large pillar of darkness to explode. Izanami burst out of there with a warcry to slash Izanami but her magatama shielded her and then formed a slashing barrier as Izanami flew away before summoning ghosts and throwing them at her. Hades: Izanami's slashing barrier slashed them and then Izanami spread her arms to channel dark energy and then clapped them to generate white and black energy, enlarging it and slamming it toward the ground, creating a large shockwave with ghosts howling toward Izanami.
Izanami jumped over them but Hades: Izanami teleported above her and kicked her down to the sea of souls. Inside, Izanami was attacked by random ghosts, slashing and then restraining her. She cloaks in a black aura and then unleashes a shockwave to push the ghost away. She flew out of the sea and looked for Izanami, only for her to suddenly appear in front of her as she kicked her upward and then flew, and slashed through and teleported to different angles to slash her until she grabbed Izanami's neck, dragging her to the sea of souls, slamming her hard on the ground, drag her again, then toss her out of the sea of soul at it vanished and then kick her away.
Izanami recovered but she snarled as conjured dark energy on her hands and then shot them toward the walls as the arena was swallowed by darkness and then Izanami vanished with it. Hades: Izanami looked around until she folded her arms, looking unimpressed until she got punched by an unseen force, pushing her away as she repeatedly being hit, then trails of slashes were marked on her until Izanami raised her sicklers to slash through her with some blood effect coming out of her.
The darkness disappeared as Hades: Izanami fell to the ground as Izanami flew into the air, spiraling and channeling energy and firing a larger laser beam toward her. Hades: Izanami looks up and then channels her own dark energy and throws it at the laser. Both lasers intercept with each other, causing a power struggle between the two. Both of them pour more power onto their attacks, causing the arena to shake.
"You cannot overpower me, Clone of Death! No clone cannot match the power of origin of death!"
"Ehehehe! Fool. I am no mere clone.' Izanami's eyes flash. "I am Death's incarnation! I shall bring death to all! Mortals, Gods, all will fall to death. And such." Hades: Izanami's lasers grow bigger. "Even you! Ahahahaha!" She laughed as the power begin to overpower Izanami.
"AAAAAAAUGH!" She screamed as she eas engulp in the laser until she fell to the ground.
(BGM ended)
Hades: Izanami laughed. "Do you see now? I am the concept of death."
"Hehehe." Inzanami chuckled as she got back on her feet. "I'll admit I will accept you as a fellow concept of death. It is a pleasure to greet you, fellow death. I have satifest the condition of this place. The Chaos in the world outside will grow stronger and stronger... until death will rain." She then teleported away.
"Hehehe." Izanami said as she turn around. "You can take me another time" She pass the group. "I shall be on my way." Then she teleported out of the arena.
The team look at each other, blinking.
"So... we're not gonna say something about that?" Levi asked
"Nah. Come on." Ragna said as they collected the Gold Sealing Stone that was dropped and were on their way.
Meanwhile...
"Hahahaha!" Liam was eating popcorn in his domain as he was watching the event in TV. "Not exactly what I plan but It accepted nonetheless."
"Liam." A voice said as Zeus and Izanami appeared. "We have completed your request. But never again we will accept."
"Aww, don't be like that. I'm sure you had some fun. Besides, you're gonna anyway. You are in no position to refuse~"
"Bah! I don't care! When I am busy, I will ignore you."
"Sure, go ahead and ignore me, I'll summon you anyway."
Back to the Reverie Garden...
"All right, now let's see who will be summoned to the Reverie Corridor." Peach wondered as the Gold Sealing Stone flew into the unsealing pedastal and then a golden light flashed.
(Trails into Reverie ost - Let's Go to a Banquet Tonight)
"Hm?" The light dim as Rosalina appeared, along with Zelda, Link, (BOTW version), Terrako, Urbosa, Revali, and Mipha. "Oh!" Rosalina gasped
"Rosie!" Peach clapped her hands. "Zelda, link, Urbosa, Revali and Mipha!" She clapped her hands as Terrako beeped. "And Terrako too!"
"Do not forget me." Fi said as she came out of the Master Sword.
"Hey, Fi!"
"Whoa, what is going on here?" Zelda asked.
"Where are we?" Urbosa asked.
"You're in the True Reverie Corridor." Palutena answered. "Basically it is a secret training facility to help us grow stronger to fix the causality that's happening in Zemuria. The enemy is growing stronger and stronger and we need to either match up or surpass it."
"So we were summon to this place to train?" Revali asked. "Hmph. I'm already perfected. But I suppose I can used this place to hone my skills further."
"Ahaha. Well, I'll be glad to help out." Mipha smiled
"All right!" Daruk cheered. "The champions of Hyrule are all assembled!"
