To do that, he had to create a new body of the Order like all Champions. It was unfortunate that, with his soul fragmented, such a body was impossible. That was why the will of the Shinobi World had reincarnated him. His only alternative, then, was a body similar to that of a Deity.
But he couldn't create a body from nothing. For that, he had to awaken the Kerk System.
Requiem was the foundation of the Hero of the Void's power, and according to that damn game, this Hero possessed a body even stronger than a Deity's.
Perhaps, with Requiem's help, it would be possible to create a similar body. But to do that, he needed the help of all the Spirits—exactly the ritual they were performing now...
Fummmmm
With the resonance, the Crown on Yuki's head expanded, and in the spiritual world, five Thrones atop the peaks lit up...
They belonged to Nia, Natsumi, Kurumi, Mukuro, and the last one—the fusion of all the Spirits, just as Yuki had done before.
(So much power...)
The leap from a planet-destroying Destroyer to a star-destroying Destroyer was immense. Yuki felt incredible from the change, yet he knew his body couldn't withstand that power for long.
So he shrugged and guided the energy toward the remaining Thrones...
Buzzzzzz
Then it happened. The Eleventh Throne lit up, and a figure rapidly took shape...
She was a blonde girl with angel wings on her back.
(Mayuri...)
The Spirits knew who she was. He had done this before, and they knew she was the manifestation of the Kerk System...
Mayuri, the hidden Spirit...
"Yuki, I was waiting for you...."
Mayuri smiled when she saw that Yuki had once again managed to summon her...
"You are—...?"
CLOCK....
Yuki was about to ask the girl's identity when the Twelfth Throne lit up. Another figure began to form, but before it could finish, an Arms Coffin appeared in the center of all the Thrones. The Crown that protects the world shone brightly, and the coffin's lid opened. Several chains shot out toward Yuki and the Spirits on their Thrones...
"Yuki!"
Mayuri and Yuki had no time to react before the chains bound him tightly.....
But that wasn't all. Yuki felt warmth in his soul, as if an important part of him had returned.
At the same time, Requiem began sending spiritual pulses of affection....
It was then that the Chat Room, which had been inactive for some time, reappeared.

[Activation of Requiem of the Miracle confirmed]
[Success, Requiem of the Miracle has recognized its master]
Ding
[Warning!]
[Champion Emperor of Time lacks a body of the Order, aborting this action is recommended]
[Warning!]
[Champion Emperor of Time is suffering severe injuries, aborting action is recommended]
[Warning!]
[Parallel is incomplete, aborting action is recommended]
[Warning!]
[Champion Emperor of Time does not meet the requirements to wield the Weapon]
[Aborting action...]
Ding
[Error]
[Requiem of the Miracle has denied intervention...]
[Requiem of the Miracle has entered Frenzy]
When Yuki saw this message from the Chat Room, he began to tremble.
The immense power of Requiem was destroying his body, and the Apocalypse Virus was unable to heal him due to its possessive nature.
To it, Requiem was the only weapon and power of its master. Other forces were trash.
Only the Coffin had the right to exist in the spiritual world—the universe-destroying Weapon.
The Cosmic Weapon....
So it began to devour and assimilate the Apocalypse Virus. In the process, it needed to destroy Yuki's body.
That was unacceptable....
But Requiem listened to no one. The Arms Coffin transformed into a black-and-white Throne, a Throne that represented both Hell and Heaven. This was to be expected, as it was the Throne the Empress of Hell had relinquished and the Holy Trinity Goddess had blessed—the Throne of the Hero of the Void.
The chains began to pull, dragging their master toward the Throne of Annihilation...
Of course, before that could happen, Yuki and the Chat Room didn't remain idle....
Ding
[Searching for alternatives.....]
Ding
[Complete database search]
[Alternative storage source found]
[Heart of the Void Hero....]
If Yuki wanted to survive the collapse of his body, he had to stop the Arms Coffin.
Requiem, unlike the Demon King sealed within the castle in the sky, wasn't easy to seal due to its immense power and restrictions on the Angels.
The Yuki of the first timeline had managed to seal it, but the seal was broken so easily that he had no choice but to flee.
Requiem was the nemesis of the Spirits...
A sealing weapon and barrier armor designed to combat Chaos. Therefore, Yuki couldn't seal it...
Even the Ocarina had failed, and Requiem had damaged it, causing the first fractures...
However, the weapon still had a key...
That key was the Heart of the Void Hero....
Ding
[Coordinates of the Heart of the Void Hero confirmed]
[Mega World 6667 (Type-Moon)]
[Do you wish to initiate teleportation?]
[Yes] [No]
Yuki, of course, wasn't going to blindly accept what the Chat Room said. This was a Mega World. Instead, he quickly manipulated the holographic screen and teleported—but not to the Mega World.
Ding
[Initiating teleportation to the World of Gods....]
World of Gods...
Labyrinth City was in an uproar. Countless Gods and Goddesses gathered en masse at the home of the family's Goddess.
For many tourists, the sight was rare. Seeing so many Gods in one place, aside from the Denatus, was nearly impossible. For residents and Adventurers, however, it meant something else entirely.
It meant the Champion had returned....
Inside the Hestia Familia, the turmoil was even wilder. One of its pillars was undergoing a transformation...
At that moment, gathered around a Throne, many Gods were projecting their divine energy....
"Yuki! Hold on a little longer, I'll save you... I swear!"
Yuno, one of the most powerful Goddesses, was especially terrified...
The moment Yuki arrived in the world, she felt him. Just as she was about to welcome her boyfriend, her heart nearly stopped from the shock.
Yuki was sitting on a strange Throne, bound by several chains. Seeing the pain on his face, Yuno reacted instantly.
At first, she didn't hesitate to break the chains. Unfortunately, the instant she tried to help her boyfriend, Requiem attacked her.
The impact didn't go unnoticed by Hestia, who nearly had a heart attack as well. As time passed, more and more people gathered. The girls from the Dungeon returned, but it was useless.
No one could break Requiem's defense...
Until Hestia called Freya and gathered all the Gods. Only then did they understand the severity of Yuki's situation.
"Kabbalah Tree of Life...."
Loki, who had also come to help, immediately identified the power destroying Yuki's body. The roots of the Tree of Life were spread throughout his body, reaching his Heart...
It was obvious that Yuki's body couldn't withstand the full power of the Order.
Fortunately, as Gods, they possessed both the power of Order and Chaos within their bodies. That allowed them to seal Requiem's excess energy—but such a seal couldn't be done by a single God.
That was why all the Gods of Orario gathered and manifested their divine power. Over time, Yuki's expression calmed, and he opened his eyes. The roots throughout his body began to fade as well...
"It's done, but it isn't perfect..."
With a sigh of relief, Freya withdrew her divine power, as did the other Gods.
Eventually, Requiem would devour the seal created by the Gods and continue consuming Yuki's body. Everyone knew this.
Champions, after all, cannot be stopped by Gods. The energy of Order devours all forces except Chaos. That was why the seal could only temporarily halt the corrosion of Order. Sealing the Throne was impossible, as was cutting the chains. Yuki had no choice but to remain seated.
An imperfect seal.
