"Eternal Mirror Flower: Finale."
Aizen softly uttered his final Authority.
In an instant, every mirror shattered, transforming into countless shards that shot toward Loki!
Just as Loki was about to rewrite them with lies, he suddenly realized that these shards were not attacks, but "memories."
Each fragment reflected the truest self hidden deep within Loki's heart—or perhaps countless versions of himself from parallel worlds.
A son yearning for recognition, a god forever living within lies...
"You..."
For the first time, Loki's voice changed.
"Lies can alter reality, but dreams can reach straight into the soul."
Aizen said with a smile.
"Lie—'This has already happened'!"
"BOOM!!!"
Golden divine light erupted. All the mirrors shattered completely, and Loki broke free from the Dream Realm Domain, panting as he landed back on the ground.
Aizen, meanwhile, still stood where he was, as if he had never moved.
"I really underestimated you, Aizen."
"But this alone is far from enough to contend with me."
Loki's voice was no longer as relaxed as before, carrying a trace of solemnity instead.
The Eternal Spear suddenly burst forth with unprecedented radiance. Loki's figure split within the light, and in an instant, tens of thousands of "Lokis" filled the starry sky!
Every Shadow Clone raised Gungnir, their spearpoints all aimed at Aizen—
"This strike will surely hit."
"This strike will surely kill."
"This strike is eternal."
The instant the threefold Divine Oracle overlapped, the starlight of the entire universe dimmed!
Aizen saw his own chest pierced through by countless streaks of golden spear light, his blood freezing into scarlet crystals in the vacuum;
He saw himself nailed to a rift in space-time by the Eternal Spear; he saw his consciousness pierced and torn apart by countless "Lokis."
He wanted to change it, yet had no way to alter
