Originally within the star field.

The "Goddess of Destiny," delayed and obstructed by Klein, had already learned of the Change on the other battlefield by observing the Mercury-Colored Illusory Long River, and "Prophecy" what would happen.

The armless body in the middle spat out an object that had been in its mouth.

It was a thumb-sized bead with a glassy texture and vibrant colors, naturally radiating an aura that brought peace to the mind and body.

This relic originally belonged to a Unifying with the Dao who possessed the "Key of Light." It was Śarīra left behind after His remains were cremated. During the Whirlpool Incident, Harrison of Penglai traded it to Heros, the "Waiter of Destiny." After Heros recovered, she immediately sacrificed it to the Deity she believed in.

As soon as the Śarīra was spat out, it flew directly to the Cavern - Eyes body on the left side of the "Goddess of Destiny," where she caught it and spun it into the Mercury-Colored, interlocking symbol, weaving it into the corresponding river of Destiny.

The River of Fate flowed silently. Just as the Golden giant Buddha, having shaken off the influence of the will to survive and preparing to join forces with the Celestial Master and the illusory "Heavenly Emperor" to fight the "Higher-Dimensional Watcher," suddenly cracked open. A pair of hands, as if cast in gold, reached out from within, intending to tear the entire body apart.

The one who attained Unifying with the Dao and possessed that Śarīra had a new Destiny and gained new possibilities!

Therefore, He used a point-to-surface approach to prevent the three Buddhas from forming a combined force, causing the Golden giant Buddha to collapse with a crash.

This is the goddess who weaves Destiny.

On the first day, the "Primordial One Creator" awoke and created this world, but reality, the Spirit World, the Astral World, and Destiny were still intertwined;

The next day, the "Fallen Mother Goddess" was Primordial One, thus providing a foundation for reality. The Spirit World and the Astral World separated, and the River of Destiny began to flow. Subsequently, the "Mother Tree of Desire" was born, giving rise to life, as well as evil and desire. Then, the "Son of Chaos" was born, creating order, an order that inherently carries a shadow.

On the third day, Primordial One mating with the Mother Goddess, the Mother of All Things gave birth to the Eldest Daughter. Thus, the Destiny of all things began to intertwine, no longer in absolute chaos, but with relative order and a predictable Future.

As the Eldest Daughter of the "Primordial One Creator" and the "Fallen Mother Goddess," the symbol of the "Goddess of Destiny" is quite unique. She can even weave, guide, and sever the Destiny of the "Rulers of the Old One." As long as the Destiny of all things are intertwined and flow into a river, she will gain Eternal Life. Even if her body is destroyed, her consciousness and spirit can return from the River of Destiny and regain her body. Unlike most "Rulers of the Old One," she does not need to rely on pre-set Resurrection methods or rely on the immortality of the spirit to revive in Sefirot, Uniqueness, and Beyonder Characteristic after a long period of time.

Of course, the essence of Destiny is endless chaos. Even the "Goddess of Destiny" cannot completely control Destiny and make the River of Destiny flow according to the content she has woven.

At this moment, the "Goddess of Destiny" aims to distract the "Lord of Mysteries" from his full attention by influencing the battle at the Sefirot.

If He delays a little longer, He can wait for His mother to recover and return.

As the Eldest Daughter, she would inevitably receive help, a privilege not afforded to the "Circle of Fate," "Overlord of the Supernova," and other "Rulers of the Old One."

Therefore, He took out the Śarīra that He had originally intended to use when capturing the "Key of Light," and now He put it to use!

Just as the Golden Buddha was about to be torn apart from within, a deep darkness surged in, engulfing it and plunging it into Slumber Slumber from which it would not awaken for some time.

Only in this way can His internal problems be suppressed, giving Him the opportunity to control the situation.

The phantoms of the "Celestial Master" and the "Heavenly Emperor" had no choice but to continue fighting the "Higher-Dimensional Watcher" in a two-on-one battle, and the situation suddenly became extremely precarious.

Upon seeing this, the "Circle of Fate," who had just returned from the Past, was suddenly moved.

This stems from a strong Convergence Instinct and Greed rooted in Divinity.

He now has the opportunity to devour the "Key of Light"!

Compared to this, helping the "Decaying Monarch" fight against the "Calamity of the Root" and the "Eternal Darkness" seems less important.

Unable to obtain sufficient information from the River of Destiny and shielded by the Spirit World, the "Overlord of the Supernova" remained unaware of what was happening on the other battlefield, growing increasingly impatient.

Finally, within the Astral World, the concept of Star was suddenly strengthened.

One after another, blazing, enormous, terrifying orbs of light descended upon this star field, radiating unimaginable light and heat.

These are Star that have been summoned by the "Overlord of the Supernova" and are nearing the end of their lives.

"Overlord of the Supernova" is the Ruler of the Stars and a symbol of the weight and Density of the Book of Books, the controller of fundamental forces, and the law of the boundless Starry Sky!

He could have used the Spirit World to instantly summon the Star he was grazing, creating Supernova explosions or terrifying Black Hole without affecting the stability of his own structure. However, "Lord of Mysteries" Klein used the Pillar symbol to close the Spirit World in advance. "Overlord of the Supernova" had to spend some time converting those Star into concepts, sending them into the Astral World, and then transporting them here to return to reality.

Once those Star accumulated in a star field, they immediately attracted each other and collided.

A massive burst of light and heat engulfed the surrounding layers of "doors," and countless Klein.

Immediately afterwards, the matter that collided collapsed instantly, radiating an unimaginable suction force that captured back the light and heat that had been thrown out, causing the entire star field to shrink towards the center and slowing down time.

There are no longer any obstacles between the "Overlord of the Supernova" and the Astral World.

At that moment, He sensed that at the edge of the captured light and heat, a huge Light Gate, tinged with Blue-Black and seemingly composed of countless Insects, appeared.

Beneath the light stood a figure— Klein, wearing Half-Top Hat, dark Gloves, a long black trench coat, and carrying Stardust Staff.

Klein revealed the "Sefirah Castle" and pressed his left palm forward.

Time, which was already moving very slowly due to the presence of the giant Black Hole, slowed down even further, and it seemed as if the sound of bells was coming from inside the dark blue-green Light Gate.

Everything became stagnant, almost coming to a standstill.

"King of Space-Time"!

"Overlord of the Supernova" also fell into a near-frozen state of time, its movements incredibly slow.

He suddenly realized something:

Why would I create Black Hole, Black Hole that can cause space to contract and time to slow down?

Wouldn't this help the "King of Space-Time" to better freeze time?

Could it be that I was unknowingly affected by the symbolism of "Foolishness" during the previous battles?

Without hesitation, "Overlord of the Supernova" immediately transformed the collapse of the Black Hole into its strongest burst, which could break the constraints of space and the stagnation of time, and even had a considerable probability of damaging the already manifested Sefirah Castle!

Of course, such a transformation requires at least one second, but one second in the time lag zone is not the same as one second in the outside world; it is longer.

The "Goddess of Destiny" was also Past sucked into the massive Black Hole created by the "Overlord of the Supernova." She managed to escape to the edge unaffected by weaving her own Destiny, but she could no longer see the Destiny of that Gloom region.

Just then, He discovered that in the place where the Illusory Long River had not yet reached, the "Lord of Mysteries," Klein, appeared, wearing Black Trench Coat, a silk top hat, and holding Stardust Staff. He was standing Light Gate stained with Blue-Black.

The Mercury-Colored River of Destiny changed direction and Past toward Klein. All its tributaries converged toward the Light Gate, as if that was where the right path and the true Future lay. Even the "Goddess of Destiny" herself was being pulled toward that portal.

"Destiny Beacon!"

The "Goddess of Destiny" also foresaw the Destiny of the "Lord of Mysteries," Klein. Her headless body on the right, following the surging of the Mercury River, slashed out a phantom silver-black dagger at the huge, bluish-black Light Gate.

That can sever all the Fate Branch.

The Final Judgment!

Upon seeing this, Klein, who had revealed the "Sefirah Castle," calmly opened his arms, raised his black trench coat, and made the Light Gate, which was stained with Blue-Black, shine brightly.

The Concealment scene behind him was revealed: a deep Black Hole from which even light and heat were trapped and unable to escape.

The Black Hole created by the "Overlord of the Supernova"!

Almost simultaneously, Klein broke the stagnation of "Change" and, in turn, accelerated Change.

Suddenly, the transformation attempted by the "Overlord of the Supernova" was completed. The Black Hole became a "White Hole," spewing out a vast, terrifying Sea of Light of Burning light and an extreme explosion.

This rushed towards Klein, towards the "Sefirah Castle," and also towards the "Goddess of Destiny" on the other side of the Light Gate!

Klein did not leave the scene immediately. He placed his hand on his chest and bowed to the "Goddess of Destiny" whose eyes reflected Sea of Light in the center of the head.

He took the opportunity to transfer the attack of "Goddess of Destiny" to "Overlord of the Supernova" on the other side of "Sefirah Castle", thus completing the binding.

This is a kind of "Grafting," a manifestation of "eerie" symbolism!

For "Overlord of the Supernova" and "Goddess of Destiny", if they had discovered the problem in advance, it would not have been difficult to stop their attack and prevent "Grafting" from achieving its goal. However, this time, Klein used himself as bait and used "Sefirah Castle" to separate the two sides. With himself also falling into crisis at the same time, they did not have time to change anything!

Of course, the greatest contributor was the symbol of "Foolishness," which gradually deepened its influence on the surroundings over time.

In an instant, the vast and terrifying Sea of Light engulfed Klein's body, shook the huge Light Gate stained with Blue-Black, and then continued forward, completely submerging and tearing apart the three bodies of the "Goddess of Destiny".

The "Goddess of Destiny's" Final Judgment strike successfully struck the "Overlord of the Supernova's " River of Fate.

The "Overlord of the Supernova" immediately felt utterly alone, lost in Gloom, unable to find reality, unable to sense the Spirit World or the Astral World, and seemingly without any hope of continuing its Destiny.

In this star field where no stars remain, Klein's figure, dressed in Black Trench Coat and dark Gloves, quickly came into view.

He just died.

But he possesses the power of Miracle; his resurrection is one such Miracle.

Correspondingly, "Sefirah Castle" also suffered a severe Impact during this adventure and could not be fully restored in a short period of time. This was the price that had to be paid in order to quickly resolve the battle.

Klein did not relax, because the battle here was not actually over. He had only temporarily gained the upper hand and created an opportunity, which he had to seize!
