Noah’s Sacrifice and the Light of Excalibur

Loki and his companions found themselves overwhelmed by NEURON’s relentless attack, unable to escape from the desperate situation. However, in that critical moment, Excalibur shone with a dazzling light that sliced through NEURON’s assault and rendered it powerless. The attack dissipated, and for a brief moment, the universe fell into a silent stillness.

Loki stared in disbelief at Noah, who was gripping Excalibur tightly.

“Loki-sama…” Noah was clearly exhausted from using the sword’s power, but his voice remained calm and gentle, filled with quiet determination. He explained that he had arrived there by borrowing the power of the Light Body and that the time had come to unleash Excalibur’s true power.

“Excalibur is not something I can wield on my own… But with Loki-sama’s protection, and by offering my life, I was able to release its power for just a moment… to tear through dimensions.”

The Final Conversation with Noah

Loki collapsed to his knees, staring at Noah in shock, unable to speak.

“Why… Noah, why did it have to be you…?” Loki’s voice trembled as memories of saving Noah in the village of Elysion flooded back to him. Back then, he had risked his life to protect Noah, but now, Noah had returned the favor by saving him.

“Loki-sama… please, take this,” Noah said, handing over the “Celestial Pendant” that Loki had purchased at the Aerial auction. Loki had imbued it with protective power for Noah, and now, it had supported Noah in his final moments.

Noah’s Light and His Fading Form

With a gentle smile, Noah’s body began to dissolve into light. After releasing Excalibur’s power, his very existence slowly transformed into a faint glow, becoming part of the energy beyond dimensions.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

“Noah…!” Loki cried out, reaching for him, but Noah’s figure had already faded into light, beyond his grasp.

The light of Noah quietly merged into the vastness of the universe, and as his final glimmer disappeared into the distance, nothing remained.

Asclepius’s Attempt to Revive Noah

Asclepius rushed over, immediately using the Chalice of Life in a desperate attempt to revive Noah. He fervently wielded the chalice, trying to bring Noah back to life.

“There’s still time… Noah, don’t give up!” Asclepius’s face was filled with urgency, his voice thick with desperation. But Noah’s body had already become light, and there was no way to bring him back.

“Damn it…!” Asclepius clenched his fists, overcome by frustration and helplessness. “I can’t save him…?” He raised his fists to the empty space, fighting the urge to scream in anguish.

Raheel’s Explanation

At that moment, Raheel approached quietly, placing a hand on Asclepius’s shoulder.

“Asclepius, it’s no use…” Raheel’s voice was calm but tinged with sadness. “Once a soul leaves this dimension, no power can bring it back. Noah’s soul has completely departed from this world.”

Asclepius bit his lip, his fists clenched tightly as he bowed his head in regret. “So… I’m powerless…”

Noah’s Final Message

As Loki gripped Excalibur, Noah’s final message echoed directly in his mind.

“Loki-sama, don’t slack off too much—everyone’s counting on you. Take care of yourself. And please, take care of the Light Body too.”

Hearing those words, Loki couldn’t hold back the surge of emotions swelling inside him. “What am I supposed to do without you…?” His voice echoed into the empty void.

Loki’s Rage and the Final Battle with NEURON

Filled with both fury and sorrow, Loki tightly gripped Excalibur, his body trembling with rage. “NEURON… I will never forgive you…!” Channeling all of his anger, Loki unleashed a devastating dimensional slash aimed directly at NEURON.

NEURON attempted to defend itself, but Excalibur’s power overwhelmed it, slicing through dimensions and utterly obliterating NEURON. The once-dominant force of NEURON faded into light, and silence returned to the universe.

Noah’s Ark, in Name and Deed

With NEURON’s destruction, the colony of Loki and his companions was fully protected, finally fulfilling the true purpose of “Noah’s Ark.” Thanks to Noah’s sacrifice, the colony became a place of hope for the future.

Loki stood there, clutching Excalibur and the Celestial Pendant that Noah had left behind, tears streaming down his face as he reflected on the profound loss.
