Scene 1: The Edge of the Universe and Beyond
Within a second, Dream reached King Larthur. He was lying on the ground, battered and helpless. As he noticed her presence, his eyes widened. He had seen her reverse time.
"Who… are you?" he asked, trembling.
Dream's red eyes glowed fiercely, and a strange, otherworldly aura surrounded her — one unlike anything from this world. King Larthur knew then… this was his end.
He began crawling backward in fear, whispering for forgiveness. Dream said nothing. She kept walking toward him.

Meanwhile, Ron faced the demonic eagle.
He punched it straight in the face, launching it into the distance. Smiling, Ron chased after it, delivering blow after blow, sending the creature flying again and again. But the Eagle caught itself mid-air and retaliated.
It opened its flaming beak.
A wave of fire surged toward Ron, engulfing him completely. But when the flames vanished, Ron stood unharmed — even he looked surprised.
> [Fourth Wall has nullified the attack 'Fire Breath.']
A glowing stat window appeared before Ron:
> Name: The Demonic Eagle
Soul: No Soul
Category: Mutant
(This mutant is created by demonic magic.)
Want to see more information?
Before Ron could react, the Eagle charged at him. He quickly dismissed the window and dodged. Taking a deep breath, Ron calmed his mind — and then launched himself forward.
A fiery aura from the Eagle and a red lightning aura from Ron collided midair. Ron grinned.
> [You have nullified the power of 'The Demonic Eagle.']
The fire aura vanished.
Ron summoned the lightning through his Blade of Vengeance, channeling it into his fists. In one decisive blow, he punched the Eagle — the impact unleashed a BOOM so powerful that it tore apart the very edge of a dimension.
The Eagle disintegrated. The dimension shattered.

Ron fell from the sky, landing back at the battlefield. Dream had already massacred the armies of both kingdoms. Only the King of the other kingdom had managed to escape. Everyone else was dead.
King Larthur, trembling, tried to crawl away. Dream stood above him, her eyes still glowing red, ready to finish it.
Just then, Ron crash-landed beside her.
Dream paused. Her eyes shifted from crimson back to purple. She rushed to Ron and hugged him tightly, tears falling down her cheeks.
King Larthur tried to escape — but the moment he turned, his body exploded into ash.
Dream had silently executed him.
She then turned and healed Carter with a touch.

Somewhere Else…
A mysterious, staff-wielding woman watched Ron and Dream from afar — a glowing screen floating in front of her. A man knelt at her feet, head bowed. She moved her finger, and the screen vanished.
She walked past the man in silence.

Between the 1st and 2nd Layer of Reality…
Gravo Gonzalez finished speaking with Aurora. As he turned to leave, she raised her hand.
"Wait. I'll give you the location," she said. "But in return, tell me — who created the 'Crack of Scenarios'? Who created all the scenarios within it? And who created the 'Fourth Wall'?"
Gravo was silent for a moment. Then he replied:
"…It was my father. Mr. Gonzalez."
Aurora's eyes widened. "Why did he create them?"
Gravo looked away. "I don't know why."
"Now," he continued, "Will you tell me where to find the seven stones that lead to the Watcher of the Universe?"
Aurora handed him a folded paper with seven locations written on it. Gravo thanked her and vanished into the dimensional mist.

Hero Town – Earth (A Few Weeks Later)
In an unknown place, the same cult responsible for Bruce's family's massacre was preparing for a ritual.
At the same time, Ron and the others finally returned to Hero Town. Dream clung tightly to Ron, refusing to let go — she was still shaken, believing she had lost him.
As they parted ways with their friends, Ron said goodbye and began walking home.
Dream, still holding his arm and shirt, followed him.
When they reached their house, Ron said gently, "You can let go now. We're home. No one can harm us here."
But Dream didn't respond. She kept holding on.
Ron tried again. "You don't have to worry. I'm better than ever. Let me make dinner — you should rest on the couch."
Dream stared into his eyes.
Ron smiled and sat beside her. At last, she let go.
He stood to walk toward the kitchen — but she grabbed his arm again.
Ron looked at her. She shook her head: Don't go.
He sighed and sat down again, trying his best to calm her down. Even after an hour, she wouldn't let him leave her side.
"I'm tired," he said. "I want to sleep."
She shook her head again.
"What, now you won't even let me sleep?" he said with a tired grin. "Fine. I'm going to bed. Come if you want to sleep with me."
To his surprise, she nodded — and followed him.

Meanwhile, At the Cult's Ritual Site…
The ritual had reached its climax.
A hole in the dimension tore open like a screen. All the cult members knelt. From the screen, a man with glowing purple eyes appeared.
"You have summoned me," he said calmly. "Speak. I will grant you one wish."
The cult leader rose. "Bring back my dead family."
"Your wish will be fulfilled… in six days," the man replied. "On the sixth day, they will live again."
Then he vanished.
