The Void Eater's shattered core hung in the endless black like a broken heart, pulsing faint purple light. But it wasn't dead. Not yet. The cosmic beast let out a guttural whisper that echoed through the void—its final phase kicking in. The core reformed slow, sucking in debris from the broken Arena: Golden god shards, fallen fighter essences, even stars from the dying sky. It grew a new form—sleeker, deadlier, a swirling vortex of tentacles and eyes with a single massive maw at the center, teeth grinding realities into dust. Powers amplified: Now it devoured emotions too—hope turning to despair mid-fight, turning tears into weapons.
Fighters left: 523.

Clara clutched her holy spear, tears streaming down her gentle face, mixing with blood. "For my sister... for everyone. We end this beast—together."

The Eater recoiled, core cracking anew.
