Momiji: .........
Jin: She vanished......
After confirming Nagisa has disappeared, Jin murmurs so quietly.
He feels no sentiment for the knight who protected him for a time against her will.
Jin: I'm surprised. I didn't expect for my masterpiece, Schwarzritter, to be defeated in that way.
Jin: I didn't give her Sacred Waltz enough credit...Even with concept magic, it was impossible to manipulate her will completely.
Momiji: ......
Jin: While I may have miscalculated a little...Nevertheless, you are still the greatest, Satomura Momiji---
Jin: Though I had initially planned to take out Loki first...
Because of him, you've grown into a formidable enemy that has surpassed my expectations.
While Momiji stands perfectly still, Jin continues to joyfully boast what he is feeling.
Having revealed everything that he has kept within his chest until now, he gushes with joy over how strong of a rival Momiji has become for him.
He has become convinced that it would otherwise be impossible to feel this semblance of "Life" from his dilapidated self
unless he interacts with the emotions of a strong opponent---!
Jin: Satomura Momiji---By winning this battle with you, I'll be able to obtain a new sense of "Life" for the first time...!
Jin: Now, the skirmish is over. The stage has been set---We must fight...
Bet everything you have on this Final Round!! Satomura Momijiiiiiiiiiii!!!
Momiji: ...give you.
Momiji: I'll never forgive you......
Momiji: Arizuka Jin---I will...never forgive you.
Momiji: For the sin of trying to defile our bond---I...Nnn, WE will judge you.
Momiji: Let's go, Nagisa------Together!
Jin: What------?
Momiji: Not to protect anyone...But for the love that my best friend and younger sister had for me so that I could live happily------!!
Momiji: The two of them gave their lives for me! So that I could protect this "Normal life---!!
Lend me your power, Nagisa!!!
Momiji: ---SECOND ACCESS: GATE OPEN---!!!!
Momiji: I'll show it to you, Arizuka...No matter what kind of delusion you create for yourself, this is the true power of "Bonds"---!!!
Jin: IMPOSSIBLE...?! WHY DO YOU HAVE HER HOLY SWORD---?!
Momiji: This is Nagisa's answer---That girl...I certainly did kill those two...
Momiji: But! Even so, both of them still love me! Both Haruka and Nagisa have lent me their power to protect me!
Momiji: My sin wasn't that I killed the two of them------It was that I couldn't believe that from the bottom of my heart that they wouldn't resent me!!
Jin: It shouldn't be possible to have two magical weapons---What a woman you are, Satomura Momiji...! Haha...AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Jin: Yes! This is the best!! More! Shine even brighter for me!!
Momiji: Even if you didn't ask, I would have shown you. This is the blow we have created with our covenant---!!
------Yes.
A magical weapon is unique, and a magi can have at most only one magical weapon.
Since she has the Grimoire, it would normally be absolutely impossible for Momiji to have that holy sword in her hand.
Assuming that is the case---Than there has to be not one but two people there...Nagisa's very existence, now "Resides" within her.
Her existence still shines even after having been extinguished,
and their bond that can never perish has created a new covenant for the "Path" she has stepped forth on---!
Jin: Do not hold back! Here I go, Satomura Momiji---!
Jin: This eternally burning flame of hell will turn you to ashes!!!
Jin: FORBES: BLUTGANG------!!!!
Jin fires forth the eternal flame that will devour everything in it's path---
Time and again, this ultimate flame of evil has already devoured several powerful enemies...!!
Momiji: A flame that burns eternally...? DON'T *** WITH ME!
SOMETHING LIKE THAT CAN NEVER DESTROY OUR "BONDS"---!
Momiji: In my hand, I have inherited an "Eternal covenant" from her---!!
However------
Shining permanently with their promise, she rises to meet her enemy with the holy sword that can cut through everything with one slash---!
Momiji: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Momiji: ------TYRFING------!!!
Momiji cuts through her hesitation together with Nagisa's feelings,
combining their "Power" to create a brilliant light that will shine for eternity.
The proof of their everlasting bond tears into the eternally burning flame without losing its brilliance,
dying the world a rainbow and gold-colored sheen---!
The clash between two eternal magics forces an inherent contradiction, and they eliminate each other...!
Jin: Na...My Forbes: Blutgang was simulateneously struck?! Impossible---My eternal flame cannot be canceled out...!!
Momiji: Kheh...!
Contrary to the surprise and haste Jin shows over the unexpected situation, Momiji breaks out into a cold sweat.
It would be foolish to think that there would be no price to pay for having two simulatenous magics thrown at full force against each other collide,
and while it's a fact that Jin's flame cannot overcome her sword, she pays a heavier price.
Jin: Hah------
Jin: As I should have expected from my Rival---There's no other magi that exists that can survive "My Best" other than Odin...!
Jin: Good grief, everytime I think I can't experience any further joy from you, you keep surpassing my expectations---!
Momiji: ......
While she watches Jin look overjoyed, Momiji realizes the inevitable conclusion of this fight.
Yes---Jin can fire "His Best" as many times as his magic will allow him to,
and he surely has enough in reserve to allow him to do so several more times.
But when compared to the amount of magic Momiji has left...hers is simply not enough.
Jin's last resort, Forbes: Blutgang, has already defeated Ryuichi and Ayane with it's ultimate evil flames.
With the exception of only one mythic-class attack, Momiji is completely powerless before it.
In other words---------
Jin: Both of our best attacks are completely even---Than, my victory is unshakable...!!
Jin: Yes...You can only use that holy sword one more time---!
No, you won't be able to cut through my eternal flame no matter how many times you could use it!!
Jin: Not even God can kill me with a single blow! Absolutely never!!
The "Weakness" of the legend of the holy sword Svafrlami is absolute---
While it can overcome even "Concepts" with it's power, the sword itself cannot withstand the strain for long.
It can be used twice safely, but it will be destroyed if used a third time...
Since the battle was not decided with the first use of the sword, it can be said that Jin has effectively cornered Momiji.
Jin: Even if you eliminate me, once you are hit by this hellish flame it will continue to burn your body forever,
and won't disappear until you have vanished.
Jin: If it touches you just a little, you're finished---and since you cannot move quickly, you cannot evade this blow...
Jin: In other words, once I shoot this flame, you have no choice but to oppose it with everything you have with a swing of that sword.
Momiji: ......
Momiji has already used her "Last resort" L'Arc-en-Ciel's restorative property against Schwarzritter, and cannot be used again.
The only thing that Momiji can do is trust in the sword that she has inherited from Nagisa---
She cannot dodge or defend herself from this mythic-class technique---and she can only use her sword one more time.
At the same time, she will lose her only remaining chance to win if she does so...
Since she won't be able to do anything against a follow-up attack, she has to defeat Jin with the next use of her sword...!
Jin: It's Checkmate in two moves, Satomura Momiji! Will you walk the path of ruin yourself, or be burned to ashes by this hellish flame---
It is your choice to make!!
Momiji: ------
Momiji: Yes, you're right. I chose to walk Reiji's path------While Nagisa may not be here any longer...I will keep on living.
Momiji: That is the "Decision" that I have chosen. Therefore...
Momiji: Receive this, Arizuka Jin! This is my------This is the final blow that we have created---!!
Momiji: With all of my power...I will convict you for your sins!
Jin: You believe that your sword can surpass my blow? How interesting indeed---Go ahead and try if you dare!
Jin: The strength of your feelings has produced a strong "Magic"---But that's all it is!
Before the "Power" of the True King, everything else is meaningless---!!
Jin: THIS IS THE END! SATOMURA MOMIJIIIIIIIIIII!!
Jin: FORBES: BLUTGANG------!!!!!
Jin fires his strongest blow again, the ultimate evil flames of hell rushing out to swallow everything in its wake.
There is no one who can be hit directly by it and survive...!
Momiji: ------
Jin: ?!
However.
She stands unwavering before the flames of "Death"---They will not move her or her holy sword.
Yes---The final blow of this sword was entrusted to her by her best friend...She has no intention of using it against the flames ahead---
This sword is only meant to cut the enemy that lies before her---!
Jin: You fool...! Are you aiming for us both to die?! It's useless! When you receive my flame, you and your "Magic" will be swallowed and die!!
Jin's merciless flames of hell hit Momiji directly.
And as he stated, there is no counterattack from Momiji---Not even dust remains, only silence and the burning ground upon which she stood.
Jin: ---Ha---It seems you made a fatal mistake here at the very end...This battle is my win.
Watching the burning earth before him, Jin is convinced of Momiji's complete annihilation and declares his victory.
Her feelings could not overcome Jin's overwhelming "Power"---The outcome of the battle is due to the fact that his power was just too strong.
Momiji: Let's go, Nagisa------
Jin: Eh---?
However---Jin is not blessed with the victory that his mighty power should have awarded him.
Jin: NA...?! Space materialization---?! This light, it can't be------ISABEL?!!
Such a mighty skill doesn't exist for good or for evil---Everyone has an equal chance of winning, and is treated fairly.
Jin had given Momiji "Permission to enter" Isabel whenever she desired------
It was a right he granted her at the very beginning of Ragnarok.
Isabel is the ultimate magical space, rejecting all events that would do harm to a person within it---
In that world, not even Odin can bring harm to others; It is the divine sanctuary------!
That fact doesn't change even for the flames of hell---No impurities from enemies will be allowed to penetrate Isabel's space...!
Momiji gambled and took his mythic-class attack head on,
materialized in that sanctuary and allowed it to extinguish the flames, than returned from it.
Therefore, the difference between victory and defeat for both of them is the gift that Jin granted her---
Nothing other then the power to enter Isabel at will!!
Momiji: This is the final---------
Momiji: BLOWWWWWWWW------!!!!
Jin: Guh...!! "THAT BLOW, WILL NOT HIT------"
Momiji: ------TYRFING------!!!
Momiji: ---------
Using all of her power, Momiji really did make it her final blow and brought about the end she sought.
Even though Jin still had his best card in Endless Banish to play, since he could not perfect it, he needed time to prepare it.
That's why he immediately trusted himself to the "Power" of his Arcadia Jinx and tried to invoke it,
but her full-force blow cut him down before he could succeed.
He was no match for such a mighty power, and Momiji was able to *** victory from Jin as a result.
The sword that the bonds of the two of them created cut down and eliminated Jin's existence, leaving him as a corpse.
Momiji: It's over, Nagisa------
Thrusting the holy sword into the earth, Momiji quietly speaks aloud to her best friend.
Since she is still with her, Momiji knows that she can "Talk" with Nagisa as she continues to protect her.
Momiji: Reiji...That's right, I still have go to where Reiji is...
With her body battered and with barely any magic left, Momiji quietly prays for the safety of her beloved Reiji.
Since his opponent is Odin---The difference in strength between them must be enormous, and she cannot quell her fears.
She has to believe that Reiji will win...She knows that she cannot fight anymore with her body in this state---
Nevertheless, to help him, she begins to walk toward where the person she loves is.
Yes...So that the both of them can grasp and walk together in the "Normal life" that they seek.
Momiji: ......
Momiji stops moving just before she leaves the area.
At the end of her sight is not the memento of Nagisa that she would have liked to have...Only Jin's corpse which she has ripped to shreds.
Momiji: I won't make a grave for you. Sayonara---Arizuka Jin.
With his magical weapon destroyed, Momiji takes one more look at his fallen form, than takes one step forward to leave---
Momiji: ------Eh...?
But, that is when her intuition informs her of the incredibly large inconsistency that exists.
Momiji: He isn't---disappearing------?
Yes.
Because that is an absolute rule------
When a magi's magical weapon is destroyed, their existence will be made to disappear...
Jin: Where do you think you're going...Satomura Momiji...
Momiji: That's...IT CAN'T BE------!!!
Jin: Not yet---I haven't finished things with you yet!!
Momiji: Arizuka...Jin...?!!
While his existence was certainly cut, Momiji trembles with fear
as she watches both Jin and his magical weapon that should have been destroyed rise.
Momiji: W-WHY---?!
Jin: Haa, haa---This is, my "Last resort"---Satomura Momiji...Did you think you knew everything about my "Power"...?
Jin: Yes...I revived myself, using my own flames---The thing which it devoured, was my own flesh and blood------
Jin: By devouring everything inside of me that was Yggdrasill, by using her "Power", I was able to obtain it---
Momiji: No...way...!!
Jin: Indeed! While I can only do it once, just as you...I can do so by "Disposing" of her---!!
Momiji: DOUBLE STOCK---------!!
It is a skill that contradicts a magi's very existence...That is the true "Power" that lies dormant within those pitch-black flames---
Not only magic, but the flames of "Evil" can devour a person's existence itself---!
While it cannot completely revive the user, and while the stock of lives that the flames can hold is only one,
It is a complete reproduction of the raging terror that existed sixteen years ago!
Jin: While it was painful to lose Yggdrasill's "Power" and her last resort---I substituted her life for mine...!
Jin: But it's fine---The amount of magic I have left will be enough. As long as I have these hellish flames...I CANNOT LOSE!!
Momiji: ...!
Jin: Now, let us continue, Satomura Momiji---!! This time will truly be the final battle of this war!!!
As he stands after lying on the brink of death, Momiji cannot help but admit it------
This man who governs Ragnarok, is the one True King.
As long as his existence is not completely eliminated, this war will never be over---!!
