Isamu is drinking alcohol and looking at his wife Sakura's gravestone

Ethan Arakawa: (Looking at his father) You should stop drinking father!

Isamu Arakawa: Sakura didn't want you to save her, she wanted you to live

Ethan Arakawa: But I…

Isamu Arakawa: Listen to me Ethan… you did not fail, she made a choice that day, she sealed the child celestial inside someone else

Ethan looks at his father, in confusion and disbelief

Ethan Arakawa: What?

Ethan is shocked to hear this because he didn't know

Ethan Arakawa: (In his thought) Emily…

INT. Asgaror – Hospital Room – Morning

Isamu's friend Theodore has called him to talk about something

Theodore Maxson: Isamu I told you too not get involved in anything

Isamu Arakawa: I'm sorry my friend, I had to do it

Theodore Maxson: You are risking millions of lives for a single soul Isamu I don't think you know how high the stake is!

Isamu Arakawa: Theodore listen to me…

Theodore Maxson: (Interrupting) No, you listen to me… I'll show you the future itself

Theodore comes close to Isamu and places both his hands in Isamu's head

Theodore Maxson: Close your eyes and open them

Isamu closes his eyes and opens them

EXT. Ragnarök – it's a planet

Isamu Arakawa: (Confused) Where are we?

Theodore Maxson: Planet Ragnarök

Isamu is shocked to hear that name

Isamu Arakawa: No! no… impossible, this place…

Theodore Maxson: (Interrupting) Is Ragnarök itself… you've read books about this planet haven't you

Isamu Arakawa: I have

Theodore Maxson: Then you must also know what happens… when a war starts in Ragnarök

Isamu Arakawa: When a war starts in Ragnarök, its either the destruction of the worlds or the rebirth of a new world

Theodore Maxson: Millions of years ago our ancestors started a war in this planet… that was the destruction and now in the future a war starts in here again, but this time to create a new world… and who does this, your grandson Skyler Arakawa

Isamu is shocked

Theodore Maxson: I guess now you know how high the stake is

Isamu sees a human man getting his ass beaten by a demon, Isamu tries to help that man but he is unable to touch him

Theodore Maxson: Isamu… I'm showing you the future, not taking you there

Demon: Ora no hatsugen

The demon makes a hole through the man's chest

Human: (He is coughing blood but still smiles) You think this is over, don't you? That your kind will rule these lands forever? No… this is only the beginning, the thunder knight will come, a force greater than you and stronger than all your kind combined

The human falls on the ground holding the demon's foot while looking dead in the eyes of the demon

Demon: The thunder knight is dead, accept it… grandmaster Alexander killed him remember? Do you really think a dead man could come back alive?

Human2: Wait everyone look Skyler's daughter is trying to say something

Natalie Arakawa: Everyone don't worry… my papa is coming

Demon: Impossible he is dead!

Human: Saver this moment you demon… because soon you'll know what true fear is

The demon gets angry

Demon: (Screaming) Shut up!

The man looks at the demon as he is about to die, he says something in his last breath

Human: (Smiling) You were never the hunter… you were born to be his prey… and your end is coming

Theodore takes Isamu to another place, where we see an angel, a mother and son

Son: (Scared) Mother… what if lord Skyler doesn't come in time? What if the enemy is too strong?

Mother: The strength of an enemy does not decide the fate of the brave… Skyler is a man who was forged in storms, he goes where others cannot, he carries the hopes of those in need, he never hesitates and he never gives up… he is not hope because he is invincible… he is hope because he fights even when the odds are against him

Son: Do you believe in him? Can he hear us?

Mother: I believe in him with all my heart… he hears us and he will come…

The demons are killing so many angels and the mother starts tearing up looking at the sky

Mother: Where are you… Arakawa… we need you!

Isamu sees Skyler's spirit coming down to Ragnarök, he also sees supreme deity

Isamu Arakawa: Who is that blue man?

Theodore Maxson: The supreme deity himself… guiding your grandson

Isamu is shocked after knowing this

Skyler takes control of his dead body and gets up

Skyler Arakawa: Hello Alexander

Alexander Okamoto: Impossible

Skyler Arakawa: You keep saying Impossible and I keep on showing its possible

Alexander Okamoto: I killed you using the Nullblade, no immortal being can regenerate when they are stabbed by a Nullblade

Skyler Arakawa: I am the chosen one… death can't stop me… I am beyond death, Alexander

Alexander Okamoto: Alright then… I'll kill you properly this time, making sure you will never return

Skyler Arakawa: Ok wait, before we start fighting, I have to do this… fate manipulation – every being who has died in planet Ragnarök except the gods, all of you shall come back to life right now… this is an order given by the chosen one myself

The entire planet Ragnarök is shaking from the overloading power of Skyler

Every being except the gods came back to life as if they never died

Grandmaster Alexander tries to attack Skyler while Skyler is using fate manipulation and Skyler dodges

Skyler Arakawa: Tell me Alexander… when you were fighting me 6 days ago when I was alive… didn't you ever notice that I was pulling my punches

Alexander Okamoto: I don't care, fight me right now! Using your ultimate form

Skyler Arakawa: I can kill you in my base form Alexander… using the ultimate form would be a stretch but then again… if you want to die in a hard way… I don't mind giving it to you

Alexander Okamoto: Hikari no Fushi Kamiwaza – Chi no Shihai

Skyler Arakawa: Hikari no Fushi Kamiwaza – Kaminari no Shihai

Both Skyler and Alexander use the ultimate form, Isamu looks at his grandson

Isamu Arakawa: (Proud) So… you are my grandson… Skyler Arakawa…

INT. Asgaror – Hospital Room – Morning

They both come back to the hospital room

Theodore Maxson: See Isamu, now do you understand why I told you to stop doing all that

Isamu Arakawa: I understand it now Theodore

Theodore Maxson: Also I want to say one more thing Isamu… this is the last time we will see each other

Isamu Arakawa: What do mean by that?

Theodore Maxson: Both Alexander and Christopher will kill me within a few minutes

Isamu Arakawa: But why

Theodore Maxson: Because I am talking to you, there are a lot of spy's here Isamu and I want you to know that Asgaror is this way because of them… they are evil

Isamu Arakawa: Can't you change the future?

Theodore Maxson: I can… but if I do Ethan will ask Emily on a date

Isamu Arakawa: Should I stop both the grandmaster from doing anything?

Theodore Maxson: Noo! Their fate is sealed by someone

EXT. Asgaror – An unknown location – Afternoon

A spy comes to both grandmaster Alexander and Christopher

Spy: Sensei I saw Isamu talking to Theodore

Alexander Okamoto: Interesting

Christopher Kobayashi: We should kill Theodore before he does anything

Alexander Okamoto: Good idea Christopher… I'll kill him

Spy: I also saw Emily talking to Theodore's son Kenjiro, so should we kill him too?

Alexander Okamoto: No… Christopher go and ask him if he knows something

Christopher Kobayashi: Ok… but can I kill Brook Grim Lock too?

Alexander Okamoto: Why?

Christopher Kobayashi: Brook Grim Lock has started a movement called strong woman… I can't rape any woman because of him… so if I kill him then I might be able to rape as many women as I can

Alexander Okamoto: Alright fine but I have to warn you… Brook Grim Lock is stronger than Ethan Arakawa… its really hard to kill him

Christopher Kobayashi: Everyone has a weakness and I am sure I'll find his weakness too

EXT. Asgaror – Meet up Center – Afternoon

Meet up Center is a place where fans can meet their favorite authors

Emily has bunked the college today just to meet her favourite author Kenjiro Aeon

Emily Inochi Tarinai: Hi sir, I'm your big fan… and I love your books, the way you write romance is so… perfect

Kenjiro Aeon: (Laughing) That's very kind of you, I appreciate it

Emily Inochi Tarinai: Can I ask you a question?

Kenjiro Aeon: Sure go ahead

Emily Inochi Tarinai: (Curious) I've noticed that in all your books, the main couple always stays together, they never cheat, never break up… even when things get tough, its like love always wins… why is that?

Kenjiro Aeon: (Smiles) There was someone I loved with everything I had… but life doesn't always work like stories, does it? She chose a different path, and I was just a chapter in hers, not the whole book… Some love fades like a distant song,

Some hearts meet but don't belong.

Some roads divide where hands once met,

Leaving behind a soul's regret.

The stars don't wait, the clocks don't pause,

Life moves on without a cause.

But ink remembers, paper keeps,

What waking life has lost in sleep.

Of whispered vows that time won't break,

Of love that fate can't unmake.

For though my love was lost to fate,

On these pages, it finds its place.

A tale where hearts don't slip like sand,

But hold on tight hand in hand.

Emily Inochi Tarinai: That's a good poem

Kenjiro Aeon: Thank you

Emily Inochi Tarinai: Can you do me a favor sir?

Kenjiro Aeon: Yes please you are my fan

Emily Inochi Tarinai: I got to know that you are the god of time

Kenjiro Aeon: I am… go on

Emily Inochi Tarinai: So I have met this guy, his name is Ethan and I just want to know if he is the right person, like are we going to end up together?

Kenjiro Aeon: Ok (he touches her hand and sees the future) with him your joy will never end, and in his arms, you will be the happiest person you have ever been

She smiles and thanks him and leaves, as she leaves Kenjiro watches her

Kenjiro Aeon: I am sorry Emily… I had to lie, the right heart but the wrong time… you will love him and he will love you, but love… love is not a shield, no matter how much you wish it to be… I see the end before it begins, I see hands reaching, desperate, trembling, grasping for something that will never come, I hear voices, screaming names that will never be answered again… time will tear where love once grew, It does not ask, wait or care, It will rip you from each other no matter how tightly you hold on, Emily Inochi Tarinai… Ethan Arakawa… you both will die together, side by side, shoulder to shoulder… you both will die saving your son… Skyler Arakawa

Kenjiro wipes his tears away

Kenjiro Aeon: Why is fate so cruel to good people? Why does it punish those who deserve to be happy?

After a while grandmaster Christopher and Satan have come to meet Theodore's son Kenjiro but Satan is covered up so that no can know he is a demon

Also if you don't remember Satan then read chapter 23 again, also he has teamed up with the 2 grandmasters Alexander and Christopher

Christopher Kobayashi: Hey Kenjiro… have you seen anyone's future today

Kenjiro Aeon: Nah I have quit doing all that shit

Christopher Kobayashi: Alright

Christopher and Satan leave the meet up center

Kenjiro Aeon: (In his thoughts) Christopher… you rapist do you think you will live for a long time… within a few years Ryan will know that you are the person who raped his sister and he will kill you… and you Satan, you have killed Priya, and Brook in the future… the things you have done will never be forgiven, Benjamin will kill you in the war… he will avenge his parents death

Alexander Okamoto: Then why waste time? The velkor can extract every last drop

Christopher Kobayashi: What if she dies?

Alexander Okamoto: Then she dies, a necessary sacrifice

Christopher Kobayashi: We should proceed carefully, what if Isamu suspects us

Alexander Okamoto: Then we make sure he doesn't see us

Christopher Kobayashi: What do you mean by that

EXT. Asgaror – Evening

Nakamura and Lucifer are walking while talking each other but something happens

Nakamura: That's what I'm saying Lucifer, just because some gods are rude to us, that doesn't give us the right to be rude to them

Lucifer: Yeah I know, if we do that then there is no difference between them and us

As both of them are talking a suspicious object starts flying towards them

Nakamura: What the heck is that?

Lucifer: I don't know

Suddenly a spirit appears, only Nakamura and Lucifer can see it because they are not a god

Only interdimensional beings, demonic beings, healers, Shin'yu'ki beings and the celestial being can see the spirits/astral beings

Nakamura uses his telekinesis powers and tries to hurt the spirit but nothing can kill the spirits

Lucifer: Wait, Nakamura, let me do something

Lucifer aims his right hand against the spirit

Lucifer: Ora no hatsugen – astral chain

Astral chain is an attack that demons use to lock the soul of a person, once used he has to use your full power to break these chains, but when used on a spirits/astral being they can not break out of it

Also when a demon uses this attack they lose a lot of energy

Nakamura: Hey Lucifer are you ok?

Lucifer: Yeah, I just lost a lot of energy

Suddenly so many spirits came together and they started to merge, becoming one big spirit, all the gods can see the big merged spirit, and everyone in Asgaror are scared of what was happening

Brook Grim Lock: What the fuck is that?

Vanessa who was passed out on Anthony's shoulder wakes up

Vanessa Fishman: Anthony, are you feeling something?

Anthony Fishman: Yeah

Anthony and Vanessa look at the big spirit

Vanessa Fishman: Wait… I am god of soul so I can erase the spirits/astral beings out of existence

Anthony Fishman: (Scared) Ok, but let me try something

Anthony jumps at the big spirit and tries to punch it but he doesn't even touch like it's like a cloud, you can't touch

Vanessa Fishman: Idiot

Vanessa uses soul manipulation on the big spirit and makes it weak, she could kill it but she isn't that strong

Brook sees Anthony

Brook Grim Lock: Hey Anthony are you seeing what I'm seeing?

Anthony Fishman: Yes

Brook Grim Lock: Well how do we kill it

Anthony Fishman: Vanessa could kill it but she is not that strong

As Anthony and Brook are talking suddenly Kageyama enters screaming and everyone looks at him

Kageyama Enma: What are you doing here?

The big spirit is scared of him

Kageyama Enma: (snaps his finger screaming) Go back to hell!

A portal opens up and drags the big spirits

Anthony Fishman: Who is that?

Brook Grim Lock: Kageyama Enma… the god of heaven and hell

Vanessa Fishman: I have heard a lot of stories about him… they say he chooses who goes to heaven and hell when someone dies

Brook Grim Lock: Also he is Emily's brother, well adopted but still a brother

On the other side, Ethan is talking with Nakamura and Lucifer

Satan is planning to use velkor and unseal the child celestial inside her

They bring the velkor and use it on Emily the blue beam goes through her, she has not experienced this kind of pain ever before

Satan: It's the child celestial power sealed inside her

Man: Now what do we do?

Satan: Kill her!

Group of gods run towards her holding a sword, Emily is weak and doesn't have the strength to fight back, her body refuses to move, she sits on the ground accepting her fate that she is going to die today, at this hour, right now… her face full of despair ready to die

As the group of gods run towards her, she closes her eyes, suddenly an unknown man teleports in front of her and kills half of the gods, as she opens her eyes to see what happened, she notices a man trying to save her, he reaches his hand saying something but she is too stunned to hear, speak and see anything… she blinks her eyes to see who this man is… just to realize that he is the same man who she has fallen in love with… Ethan Arakawa

Ethan Arakawa: (Concerned) Are you ok Emily?

Emily Inochi Tarinai: (Crying) Ethan…

Satan: Who are you?

Ethan doesn't say anything

Satan: What is your name kid?

Ethan Arakawa: (Anger) You people won't live long enough to remember my name

Satan: (Laughs) Such arrogance

Ethan Arakawa: I feel a demonic aura coming from you… are you Lucifer's brother by any chance?

Satan: Me! Lucifer's brother? How disgusting… don't compare me with that soft motherfucker!

Flash Back

Satan is keeping on eye on Lucifer to see if he is truly evil and acts like a devil or not but no, he sees Lucifer saving so many gods lives from danger, Satan gets angry watching

Woman: Thank you are saving my son

Lucifer: You are welcome

Satan: What a disgrace

The End Of Flash Back

Satan: Hey kid, my name is Satan, I am the future prince to the demonic world

He removes the black clothes he was wearing

Ethan Arakawa: And I am Ethan, Ethan Arakawa… son of Isamu Arakawa

Satan is shocked to hear that

Satan: (In his thoughts) So he is Isamu's son huh, then that must mean he is as strong as his father

Ethan Arakawa: What are you thinking demon

Satan: Nothing… hey all of you kill Emily, I'll take care of his kid

Man: Ok sir

As the remaining gods try going towards Emily to kill her Ethan looks at them

Ethan Arakawa: Whoever touches Emily shall touch the 15 million degrees Celsius sun itself

Some gods touch Emily only to be turned into ashes in an instant

Ethan Arakawa: (Looking at Satan) And you… how about we fight (he takes his sword out from his left hand and it turns into a Nullblade)

Satan: (In his thoughts) So this Kid has a Nullblade huh?

Ethan Arakawa: So, what do you think?

Satan: Fine… lets fight

Ethan launches himself towards Satan with Nullblade to kill his immortality

Satan knows that if he makes a contract with that sword he will lose a part of his body forever because it is a Nullblade

Satan: (Worried) Ora no Hatsugen – Unmei no Gyakuten

Unmei no Gyakuten meaning Reversal of Fate and the demons uses this defense spell when the opponent has a Nullblade, what this does is create a black wrist on your wrists which can block the Nullblade as long the user want it, but if the opponent tries to cut your leg then its gone, before he cuts your legs you make sure to place your wrists so there is no damage

They both clash together… the ground beneath them breaks making a big hole

EXT. Asgaror – Evening

Brook and Anthony look at each other

Anthony Fishman: Hey Brook, you feel his aura

Brook Grim Lock: Yes

Everyone in Asgaror can feel Ethan's overwhelming aura and go towards him

Cut to

INT. Asgaror – Satan's Dimension – Evening

As they were fighting Satan used a device called dimension creator and now, he has created a dimension where no one can enter from outside, this was given to him by Alexander

They both are fighting in the sky and fall onto ground

Ethan Arakawa: You're tougher than I thought, but I'm not done yet

Satan: You're strong Arakawa, but strength alone won't save you

Ethan Arakawa: Lets see about that

Satan: Ora no Hatsugen – Sanda Bakuhatsu

Sanda Bakuhatsu means Thunder Explosion basically the demon has to slam its hands into the ground, releasing an electric shockwave that paralyzes enemies within range for a while

Boom Ethan's body is paralyzed, he is unable to do anything

Satan: Ora no Hatsugen – Tsume de Kiru

Tsume de Kiru means Claw Slash, the claws turn poisons

Ethan takes a lot of damage through his body but he refuses to give up

As Satan is walking towards uses something

Ethan Arakawa: Honoo no Kyugeki

He uses a strong attack to cut Satan's back, but Satan dodges his attack

Satan: Ora no Hatsugen – Hi no Tama

A big ball hit Ethan on his chest making him fly crashing

Satan is holding Emily's head

Satan: I will kill Emily just like my kind killed your mother

Suddenly Ethan teleports

Satan: Wait… where did he go, I can't see or feel his aura

Suddenly Satan could see Ethan coming but something wasn't right

Satan: Wait, is he in the ultimate form already… how? Can he go ultimate form without saying Hikari no Fushi Kamiwaza… he is trying to speed blitz me but I am stronger than him, wait a minute why is he moving faster than my moment… I can't defend myself right now, he has Nullblade and I can't sacrifice Emily cause he is faster than me… I gotta sacrifice my fingers to be alive

After Satan's fingers were cut permanently

Satan: I gotta end this fast

Ethan is about to attack again

Satan: Ora no Hatsugen – Zetsumei Shūmei

Zetsumei Shūmei means Deathlight Extinction, when you use this spell the demon can shoot a beam of pure destruction that drains the opponent's energy

Ethan falls to the ground

Satan: See Ethan… if only you were trained by your father, you could have killed me in 5 seconds

Ethan Arakawa: (Anger) I won't get trained by a man who couldn't even save his own wife

Cut to

EXT. Asgaror – Evening

Isamu looks at his son remembering what happened that day for him to say that

Flash Back

After the war ended 70 years ago Ethan looks at his father and walks up to him

Ethan Arakawa: (Angry) Isamu!

Ethan punches his own father in anger

Brook Grim Lock: Ethan

Ethan Arakawa: (Holding Isamu's shirt) What have you done? What have you done?

Anthony Fishman: Ethan stop it he is your father

Ethan Arakawa: (Crying) You let so many people die… you let everyone die… you her die, Isamu! She thought you were going to save her… Isamu… you failed to save your own wife

Brook Grim Lock: (Worried) Ethan

Ethan Arakawa: (Crying) You, you, you are a grandmaster! And you couldn't even protect your known people Isamu… you failed… you failed

Ethan is screaming through his throat

The End Of Flash Back

Physically Isamu doesn't look like that hurt him in any way but mentally what Ethan said is killing him

Cut to

INT. Asgaror – Satan's Dimension – Evening

The fight goes on

Satan: Why are you even trying to save this woman… who is she to you, a friend, part of the family, or your lover, why would you protect her?

Ethan Arakawa: (Anger) I don't care what you say… I will protect her with my life!

Emily looks at Ethan

Flash Back

Emily Inochi Tarinai: What man?

Luba Inochi Tarinai: A man who will protect you when you are in danger!

Emily Inochi Tarinai: Why would he do that?

Luba Inochi Tarinai: Because a true man will never let anyone suffer or he truly loves you

The End Of Flash Back

Emily Inochi Tarinai: Ethan…

Ethan launches himself again towards Satan thinking he will do something, but he gets his ass beaten again

Cut to

EXT. Asgaror – Evening

Kageyama and everyone knows that Ethan can't win this fight, so Kageyama looks at Satan and snaps his finger, a portal opens up behind Satan pulling him into hell and the portal closes, the dimension breaks

Ethan and Emily come out covered in blood, Emily is holding Ethan's hand tightly not wanting to let go, Ethan looks at her and smiles

Ethan collapses on the ground unconscious

Emily Inochi Tarinai: (Concerned) Ethan!

Anthony Fishman: Everybody move side… let me take care of this, I'm a healer

Kenjiro watches both of them from far away

Kenjiro Aeon: (In his thoughts) I see the end before it even begins

Cut to

EXT. Asgaror – An unknown location – Evening

Christopher Kobayashi: Satan has successfully taken some of Emily's blood

Alexander Okamoto: Good, now we just have to figure out how to break him out of hell

Christopher Kobayashi: What if we kill Kageyama? Will a portal to hell open?

Alexander Okamoto: It doesn't work like that… Kageyama holds the key to both hell and heaven, so if he dies both hell and heaven will be sealed forever… until a new god of hell and heaven is born

Christopher Kobayashi: What do we do now?

Alexander Okamoto: Wait let me think… hey, do you remember what Kageyama said to everyone in Asgaror

Christopher Kobayashi: Yeah I remember

Alexander Okamoto: He said 70 years ago in the war when Isamu used his ultimate form and dragon form, he made hell and heaven shake with his aura and powers

Christopher Kobayashi: Mm-mm I remember

Alexander Okamoto: So think about it, we need something that's strong enough to shake both hell and heaven

Christopher Kobayashi: But Isamu won't use his ultimate or dragon form for fun or anything

Alexander Okamoto: I'm not talking about Isamu

Christopher Kobayashi: Then who?

Alexander Okamoto: Ethan…

Christopher Kobayashi: (Interrupting) But he just used his ultimate form while fighting Satan but he didn't shake anything

Alexander Okamoto: Let me finish though… Ethan is not strong enough to do this alone and that's why we need Brook, we need to make them fight each other

Christopher Kobayashi: How is that going to happen? They are best friends

Alexander Okamoto: I meant in the tournament, when will it start?

Christopher Kobayashi: In 2 to 3 days

Alexander Okamoto: Good… when the tournament starts we will make sure that in the end the last match… Ethan and Brook are going to fight each other, since they are both friends, they are going to play for a while but eventually somebody has to win and they both will stop pulling their punches and probably go ultimate form

Christopher Kobayashi: But even if they both go ultimate form… they still can't shake hell and heaven

Alexander Okamoto: I mean yes, you are right but listen to this… when they both start fighting in their ultimate form the clashes of both of their swords will build up or in just one straight clash between their swords… they will release a shockwave so powerful that the hell and heaven will start shaking, also making a portal through hell, where Satan could come out from

Cut to

INT. Asgaror – Hell

All the spirits in hell are chained up… because Satan used Ora no hatsugen – astral chain, Satan is sitting on a rock

Satan: (Smiling) Fools, both of them, Alexander and Christopher 2 of the strongest beings in Asgaror… and yet, they dance in the palm of my hands like pathetic puppets, they think they're using me, but I'm merely an ally in their little conquest for power… but the truth? I am using them, every plan, every move, every whisper I plant in their ears is leading to the same outcome… me standing on the throne drowning this world in fire

The spirits are trying to free themselves but they are unable to do it

Satan: The child celestial… the power sealed inside Emily… it's the last piece of my puzzle, the grandmasters think they can control that power, idiots, they have no idea what they're dealing with, they are men playing in a war meant for gods… and once that celestial power is mine, I will have no need for those two idiots, Alexander, Christopher… they will die screaming, realizing in their final moments that they were nothing more than stepping stones on my path to absolute domination

Satan gets up from the rock

Satan: I will tear their souls apart slowly, savoring every moment, every drop of their pathetic mortality as it slips away, the velkor will do its job, extracting the child celestial from Emily and when she is nothing more than a lifeless shell, I will stand at the top of creation unchallenged, unstoppable, the true ruler of all realms

He looks at the sky which is red because he is in hell

Satan: Ah, and then there's Ethan Arakawa… the broken son, the grieving fool, he thinks he is strong but he doesn't even realize how deep he is in this game, he fights for love, for family, for some bullshit sense of justice but all of that? Is meaningless when I take the child celestial from Emily, he will come for me, just like I want him too… and when he does? I'll rip him apart, slowly piece by piece and I'll make him watch as everything he's fought for burns, as every sacrifice he made turns to ash in his hands, his mother is dead, his father is weak, his love will be drained dry before his eyes and, in the end, he'll beg for death, just like the others… and I'll give it to him, but not before I carve his screams into the bones of this world, a final reminder that no one, not gods, not heroes, not pathetic little warriors can stand against me

Satan starts laughing and his laugh echoes through the hell

Satan: The demons of the underworld have waited long enough, suffering under the weight of these so-called gods but no more, I will give them Asgaror… we will take what was stolen from us

He spreads his arms in T pose

Satan: The demons will sing my name, they will kneel before me, and I… I will be the prince of the demonic world, the child celestial power sealed inside Emily will belong to me, and when I have drained it, I will seal the child celestial inside myself… and then… I will offer myself as a sacrifice to the celestial being… then in return he will grant me a reward beyond imagination, power beyond all limits, a force greater than gods… my name will be remembered through eternity… Satan the savior of demons, the harbinger of the new age!
