(Stomps at the brittling ground)" NO!! ''I-I cannot allow this!  THAT WHINING boy-king of a NINCOMPOOP IS RISKING HIS F*CKING NECK FOR A WENCH who can't be SAVED !" ''Whiz declares as she starts heading to the construct. "F*ck his idiotic notions, I'm DRAGGING HIS ASS OUT - "

"WHIZTERIA!"

Pathos' voice booms throughout the landscape. Her presence burns into the already-thinning existence of the air. "OUR law still stands. We... have no power in thwarting the decisions of the mortal mind. We only came for Egaraida... and now that Yozama has stepped in with his agenda... you ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PULL HIM FROM THE CHOICE HE HAD MADE."

"Pathos, this is not - "

"I CARE NOT IF HE IS THE BELOVED OF YOUR PRECIOUS SEED! We have had our spoken  covenant." Pathos said in a loud voice. "''You have erred once. You will not err again." To Repter, she replies, "Indeed. This tower will fall soon. If he is not quick enough to do what he has to do before this place tears itself apart...."''

As soon as Joseph finishes his overlay of protection within the tetrahedron, he remembers the last set of words :

''Get everyone who might be in the area near Daspire out of there. If Ophelia tries to stop me.... knock her out if you have to. Once you get them away, tell Repter and Isaac to shield everyone. Make a barrier with them -as big as you can make of it. And wait for me.''

In the future Ophelia returns to, she ponders about the implications she had done. She ponder whether or not she has done the right thing... when she hears someone heading her way. Despite not much of her face was shown.. one can tell who it was.

"Ophelia! You didn't tell me you were coming. (Shakes giddily in excitement) Dad and all the moms made lunch - you should join us!" said the honeyed voice. A voice... belonging to one person in particular.

The one friend in the future... she cared about.

"You wanna know the reason why you're doing absolute nothing inside this place?" Jeiel said as he walked underneath the glowing visage of the empowered Egaraida. "It's because it has two wards - one in here and one out there. The inside ward prevents Egaraida's inner magic from breaking open the cage. The one outside... stops you from making her empowered self from going any more bersek than she already is."

Jeiel then stands, unfazed... as the angered form of Egaraida descends slowly on the man. "Again... I ask. Who... are you?"

"'''YOU make me sick. You really think I'm worth.... saving? Right now.. you doom yourself for even believing that you can save me." '''said Egaraida. "You say that I'm being controlled so that you have the grandest sense of hope.. that you can stop me from destroying everything and you become the savior of all that is righteous and good. Such a sanctimonious belief, coming from the likes of you..."

Egaraida's hand balls into a fist- and she throws a punch on Jeiel. He doesn't dodge it. He takes it straight on the face... and he is flown several feet away -- his body rolling on the ground. Coughing bits of blood he pulls himself up.

"When I'm done here, and I get myself out of this prison.. all of you will be gone. There will be no one left to be bothered with. No one left to concern myself with. NO ONE LEFT - as everything dies with it "

"''Bothered with?" ''Jeiel says sarcastically. "You know.. for someone proclaiming ruination, that's... such a ... uncharacteristic reason. Hearing that makes me think of how much... confused you are getting."

"'''Your PETTY MIND tricks won't work on me, Yozama. NOT UNTIL I FINISH BREAKING EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY!" '''Egaraida shrieks as she plows her arm on Jeiel's gut - and he thrown even farther. Jeiel gags and wheezes... and yet he still stands.

"You know.... now that you say it that way.. it just strengthens what I believe to be true." Jeiel gingerly stands up, body wobbling badly. "You..  found Egaraida back then. When she left the comfort of her sisters as she believed she had no place between them, and that she was weaker than them. You.. came and wooed her - planting a desire within. A desire.... to make her strong. Stronger than anyone could imagine. So that she wouldn't have to think herself as weak. At the same time... (eyes flash in hate)...you turned her into a monster. All while making her believe.. that the greatest show of power she could ever achieve is shaping a new world from the ashes of the ruination she sought."

"STOP - TALKING!"

Lumbering towards the man, Egaraida slams at Jeiel - who is launched off to the nearest wall. Jeiel croaks and amidst grunts, strains to speak. "Come on. Am I really getting at your nerves? I haven't even said it - that throughout every goddamn machination and manipulation you've done to this girl... you've made her swallow her agony over what she is doing. That the real emotion she feels over everything she has done is regret. She regrets hurting the Mamonos she's drained for the creation of her weapons... and yet you tell her to keep doing it. She regrets making all who trust her into Plague-Priest zombies... and yet you tell her it's a stepping stone to the finality. "

Jeiel's eyes glint nastily. "To total control. BY you."

Sebyl heads on over to Isaac. "Hello, Isaac. How are you feeling?" The Slime smiles, tilting her head  before bowing it gently. "Thanks.. for being with Jeiel this entire time. I hear your kid was such a darling, too. Bumping heads against Jeiel a lot of times in this predicament."

Cybele snickers. "Reminds me a lot about what I usually do with him."

Lin Ai looks at the Troll. "Cybele-san, that would be all the time, if I may do say so on my concurrent observations." Cybele turns red and quickly averts everyone's gaze on her reaction.

Ansherine : Speaking of which... (looks at the tower) This place is still falling apart... and Sempai is still not coming down from there. What is even going on?

Mayind and Furai soon land on the earth in front of the converged group, carrying the unconscious Jalken and Aschera for both Kida and Fari to recieve. As soon as they were greeted by the others, Mayind points to the top. "They're still up there. Last I saw Joseph Allure made a fancy, shiny, litttle cage and trapped Egaraida inside..."

Bellona : Was Jeiel-dono up there? We have not heard anything from him. (Sees Mayind shake her head) ... where is he? What is he even doing, still?
