On Marquis' eyes, there was standing a figure of an average height (it was barely 5 and a half feet in height) man who wore everything black from his shoulders to legs, also his short whitening hair. Even so, it only viewed him from the side, so Marquis' eyes couldn't see the definite posture of that figure.
Spontaneously, Marquis thrust his body swiftly.
He remembered the old times, when the first time he met Reine in duels, Reine shot a bullet which the speed had already predated the flow of time. But, he managed to dodge her shots perfectly by just reluctantly, as if a living corpse dodging those bullets. Back at the current set-up, by now, his body thrusting speed was as fast—even faster than the speed when he was dodging all Reine shots perfectly. And he yelled to the sky, with his loud and booming voice as if it shook his entire reality.
"GOTCHA!!! I WON'T LET YOU ESCAPE!!!
HEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" Marquis let out his war cry
Unfortunately for him, as he had been close to the figure, it suddenly vanished.
"WHA-"
Instead, when marquise drove his fist, someone with the same speed dealt with him. Well, that was Harley, who cast a fake figure of Ruel before.
Abruptly, his fists slipped from Marquis' hand, aimed for the head instead. Luckily, those demonic fists were blocked, as if something rigid covered the entirety of his head, so that didn't affect his face at all. However, it sent him flying.
On the other hand, Reine unthinkingly ran through the army of countless golems. One of them had seen her, made the others turned their faces on her. Their bodies were glowing red, formed a red energy sphere that enlarged overtime.
Come to think of it, if just one of that half-finished energy sphere were shot, it could even destroy some intangible realities that transcended uncountable infinities, or in another words, those realities that compared Multiverses as mere dust. Also, those half-finished spheres were fired rapidly like a rifle that perceived the speed which outstripped the current of time as something that wasn’t even moving. Never ask about the finished, final form of the energy sphere.
Soon, the entire colony of countless mega-golems was reduced to nothing only by just a single shot in the speed that distantly outstripped the current of time, nonetheless.
Thus, Harley advised the others to leave the place. Harley flew in thousands of trillions of times faster than light, followed by The Mysterious Man and the last was Ruel and Rea. Thereupon, they immediately arrived back at the park, but The Mysterious Man was an exception. They walked into the mausoleum.
The moonlight washed the dark interior room which had a white base color, with several Golden and Black parts in it. It had many pillars that stood mightily, held the burden of the quartz ceilings as well. In the middle of the room, there was a white chest which was sturdily enlightened by the moonlit rays, unknown what thing resided in it.
Soon, without some needless words to say, Ruel abruptly opened his mouth
“Ah, let's call it a day.” said him as nothing happened, even though he saw all chain of events in that “barren place”.
Well, nobody responded to him for a moment due the others don’t think it was a very particular thing. Instead, by now it was Harley’s turn to speak.
”Good grief. I was expecting some fascinating moments, yet that chick screwed up the battlefield.”
Unlike before, everyone that was there turned their faces and eyes onto him. Ruel closed his eyes calmly and responded to him.
“Well, remember, we don’t stay there for a long time. Anyways, having fun too much is no good, right?”
Everyone nodded. Although, they don't understand much of what meaning of those words which Rmuel said before. Now, they were attempting to leave the room. It can be told from their flat expression, depicted how bored they are.
At that time, Ruel sat down calmly and said few words.
"Now, you may go."
Without replying to his words, they left that vast, fancy room immediately.

Morning shine pierced the black-framed windows, enlightened the birch-wooden floors of a vast enough room and some circular tables which each has 4 chairs surrounding it as well.

In the opposite direction of the door, there was a crescent-shaped table that was made out of wood. Behind that table, many cups and bottles were arranged neatly inside a shelf. Also, resounded a beautiful, slow, and relaxing, also a neat note morning song, as if it chirps the entirety of the vast enough room.
And stood a man inside that crescent table. The man has dark green hair as if it was as green as a pretty thick bush, he wears a grey bar outfit. Also, on his left pocket, there was a name tag, which was written there 'David'.
Well, that seemed to be the mysterious man from the barren land, but it wasn't like that was really him. Despite his appearance, he wore glasses, that covered his eyes' background, his eyes are green and looked more lively, and his face seemed more relaxed compared to that mysterious man.
There were several guests in that bar. Apparently, several dozens of meters opposite him sat a young woman, who was barely a graduated highschooler. She wore a fancy, black long dress and a black veil. The veil wasn’t fully covered her entire head, so it was revealing her low purple ponytail hair with some braids around it.
And at that time, also a young man stood right in front of the bar entrance door. He wore a fancy, all dark blue cloak as though it was a beautiful twinkly night sky. His jet black hair was covering his eyes, it didn’t even let his pair of eyes be visible at all. Now, his left hand was stretching out from it and pushed the handle, then one of the doors was opened wide. He walked to the receptionist and stood behind the receptionist chairs.
“Morning.”
He greeted happily, although his expression was flat and didn’t depict any of his feelings.
That bartender man, or so was called ‘David’ turned his expression to him and replied.
“Morning. What would you like?”
“Coffee, please. With alcohol, of course. And imma take a seat right now.”
That stranger in the beautiful cloak walked to the girl, and he sat on her left.
“Hi there.” Replied that girl.
“It’s been a long time, right?”
“It’s been a long time. Wow, such beautiful braids you have there.”
“Aa, thank you, Endou-kun.” She smiled.
“Don’t mention it. By the way, what are you doing here?”
“Um. Probably I am just..kinda getting bored...I don’t know.”
“Oh my, you just getting that hair more longish-even it engulfed the entirety of your eyes!
Such amazement! Just wait until the moment your hair went abundant as if a rainforest with never-ending expansion until it covered the entire planet...that’s your body.”
“Sheesh...There’s no way to be so. It will never happen! Absolutely never!” He laughed a bit and put his bitter smile on his face.
Both of them were bursting into small laughter happily, as though they never experienced that much happiness before.
That girl was 望美 美月
.
You could pronounce it by ‘Nozomi Mizuki’. Nozomi could be meant as ‘Wishful beauty’.
And ‘Mizuki’ could be meant as ‘beautiful moon’.
Put those words together, this hereby means ’wishful beauty moon’, because the ‘beautiful’ was absorbed into one word with ‘beautiful’ before.
She was Endou’s friend, and they seemed to be pretty close. So, never be so surprised why didn’t Mizuki feel odd to talk to him...
Wait, who is Endou in the first place?
Well, that thick-haired man in the wonderful cloak before is him. Originally unknown, but almost everyone called him by that ‘沿道 or so-called ‘Endou’. Just ‘Endou’.
People called him so because he was able to open a new path to someone. Either that was the path to the truth, to the victory, to the rightful way, and their pledgeful future.
As they stopped laughing, they continued their conversation again. Even so, they were confused about what to talk about, so they were being silent for a few seconds before.
Right now, because there was nothing to talk before, apparently one of them thought of something to talk about...that was something rather quite confusing...but on the other hand, he seemed to had a belief that she’s gonna understand this...
