Just before…
Margaret jumps from rooftop to rooftop, while Olivia runs down the road towards Jitsuko. The woman stands in front of him, moving her blade horizontally, he dodges to the side as if it were the easiest thing in the world, Margaret jumps up and comes down towards him, trying to cut him, he takes a step back, dodging too, then he takes a few more jumps back while they both try to cut him with their respective blades.
Margaret's thoughts: he's not making a real effort, we're not going to achieve anything like this.
Olivia: unique technique... Ferrumsecans!!!
The woman, at the same time, activates her elemental mark, he moves his blade horizontally, diagonally and vertically, trying to cut Jitsuko, he decides not to defend himself, taking all the damage head on. Olivia manages to cut and tear off his arm.
Jitsuko's thoughts: this technique, instant cut, I get it, well, it's nothing too dangerous, they're just cuts.
He raises his left hand, generates and throws a pink fireball at the woman. The attack goes through her stomach, she stands still, in shock, while trying to put her hand on her belly, which now no longer exists.
Margaret: Back off! Now!
The girl kicks Olivia away, to keep her away from the fight, Jitsuko grabs the girl by the hair and throws her against a wall, while she still tries to get up, he approaches and kicks her stomach, then he grabs her by the neck and punches her face, to finish with an elbow, making the girl fall to her knees on the floor, taking advantage of the position, Jitsuko grabs and pins Margaret's head to the floor.
Jitsuko: don't get distracted.
She steps away and tries to punch Jitsuko in the face, but he grabs her arm and punches her stomach, then kneed her in the same area, and then delivered three voracious punches to the center of her face, still holding her arm. He stares at her closely, observing her features, then he covers his own hand with Vitalis, making a blade around his hand, he cuts the girl's arm and pierces her abdomen.
Jitsuko: This is it for you... You.

He dodges an attempted surprise attack from Olivia, he grabs her sword and pulls it, ripping it from her hands, he kicks her leg and then executes a spinning kick that makes her faint, since she was not completely healed. He hears some sounds coming and notices Demian's arrival at the scene.
Jitsuko's thoughts: I don't know how he got here so fast, but this is better.
He takes flight and stands in the sky, then he moves his hand upward and launches a rain of pink fire blasts that devastates the entire kingdom, but the attacks are aimed at everyone who is not part of his group.
Morgan: What the hell... I took all that damage from an area attack?
Nikolas: I just healed myself and I'm already torn apart again... {grunt}
Jitsuko: Time to finish the job.
He continues flying to each of his enemies, defeating them one by one, cutting off their limbs and disabling them and reuniting his group, the last one to go help being Demian.
Present time.
Jitsuko holds Demian's hand and carries him on her back, and flies off to where he has gathered everyone. He leaves the young man in the arms of Aki, who places her hand on his forehead and begins to heal him.
Jitsuko: The time has come, my companions, we will... Purify this universe, rid this beautiful world of the plague of human life, we will bring... PEACE!
They gather the fragments of the artifact, forming an artifact that resembles a dark pink star. Jitsuko raises the artifact high, which in turn begins to shine, emitting a strong light. The piece begins to make a shrill noise and then rises above the clouds. Soon after, it begins to crack, each shard being audible throughout the entire planet. Then, the sound stops and the star breaks, a deafening silence fills the air.
Julian: No...
Gradually, a sound of destruction and explosion begins to emerge from the sky, a meteor shower comes out of the clouds, falling towards the earth. What they did not see was that throughout the universe, on all the planets, an enormous amount of meteors were formed, all the planets being devastated.
Julian: This... This can't... Be... Happening...
Julian's mouth opens slightly, he puts his hands on his face, while his expression is one of pure astonishment, tears begin to appear as he loses his strength and falls to his knees, he clenches his teeth and punches the ground in anger and sadness.
Julian: WHY?! BECAUSE I'M GOING TO LOSE EVERYTHING! ONCE AGAIN?! No... Don't do this to me... Please...
He starts to cry uncontrollably while not looking up, he was alone, no one was around him at that moment. Meanwhile, a rocket sound echoes overhead, Jitsuko's group were all hugging each other as they awaited their end, they are startled by the sound and look up, the sound turns out to be emitted by Metal Hirotome, who prepares a missile spear on his forearm and throws something at the group, but what was thrown was not a missile, but rather a dome that worked as a defense, generating a shield that surrounds the entire group and protects them from the meteors.
MH's thoughts: I can't allow those two over there to die, not now...
The metallic being begins to dodge the meteors, leaving the planet after doing his job. Morgan, Olivia, Nikolas, Julian, Hayden, Margaret, Sayako, Riley, Joana and the rest of the people in the entire universe are consumed by the shower of large meteors.
Jitsuko: What is this?
Demain: That's not the most important question, what we should ask ourselves is who was he? And why protect us?
Amelia: A metallic dinosaur... I remember a description like that, he was the companion of that warrior who killed Jonathan.
Elaina: What would anyone want with us?
While they were asking themselves this, they could hear the roar of the great explosions caused by the meteors' brute impact with the ground, the sphere that protects them vibrates and trembles, they are a little uncertain if that would really protect them for long.
