Ron's heart was lifted.
He had joined this game, introduced variables, and obtained a result, but it couldn't be considered the victory that Hephis demanded.
In this realm composed of light and shadow, he neither dispelled the final darkness nor conquered everything with absolute skill.
His mind had already begun calculating various escape strategies.
Could Nari's Chaotic Power tear apart this dimensional space?
Could Erica's pocket watch temporarily freeze the opponent's awareness?
Would the King of Absurdity and the King of Illusions lend a hand to pull me out?
In this anxious wait, Hephis finally spoke slowly.
"You have indeed not dispelled the shadows, however..."
The voice of the Monarch of Light gently echoed in the sea of stars, solemn as morning bells and evening drums:
"You have taught the shadow how to dance."
With these words, Ron's tension was slightly relieved.
