CHAPTER 92: Ending Spotlight (P2)
After trillions of years passed, Hanuri had become so hidden that even the greatest beings found it impossible to locate her.
Even Zeltra who had spent entire eras searching grew worried.
What was Hanuri planning?
Where had she disappeared to?
She searched the multiverse, the past, the future, and even the present…
Yet Hanuri stayed unseen.
Because she was hiding in the Holy White Castle Silvana's domain where no one would ever expect her to be.

A Sudden Shatter of Reality
Without warning, reality cracked like glass.
The screen of existence dimmed, darkened, and collapsed into pure blackness.
Silence.
Then we hear voices.
Silvana:
"Is… is it over…?"
Ixia:
"I… think so."
Suddenly, a final flash of reality-checking light blasted down from above, pulling them upward_
no resistance, no sound_
like gravity itself changed its direction.
And then_
They were thrown out of the past…
Straight into the present.
Straight into the Holy White Castle.
Straight to where Hanuri was.

Return to Reality
Silvana and Ixia collapsed onto the white marble floor, trembling.
Their bodies needed time to recover from the overwhelming IOP experience.
Then a shift in the atmosphere—warm, bright, playful announced her presence.
Hanuri:
"So… did your journey finally come to an end?"
Silvana could barely speak.
Silvana:
"I-I… t-th-think…"
Ixia:
"Ugh… I need time too. Bye."
Silvana:
"Same… bye. We'll talk later, Hanuri…"
Hanuri tilted her head like a cute, curious, excited puppy.
Hanuri:
"Awww… I wanted to have fun.
But it's okay you two definitely need rest!"
The three separated.
Silvana dragged herself to her room after 7 straight days of IOP.
Ixia staggered away to her own room as well.
They needed it.
Their minds needed it.
Their souls needed it.
But Hanuri…
Hanuri didn't go to her room.
She went somewhere else.
Somewhere the author even me does not know.

Elsewhere in the Universe…
A volcanic void.
A realm of molten lava, scorching heat, and darkness thick enough to swallow light.
Two entities conversed in the shadows.
One female spoke with a calm yet terrifyingly powerful tone.
??? (female voice):
"Hm. Civileaon… what do you think?
Can he really achieve that?"
A second voice male, confident, unwavering answered.
Civileaon:
"Well, even you know what he's made of.
He's close… very close to escaping the tower.
We can only wait.
After all… we can't interfere while he's inside, right, Curmiliya?"
Curmiliya responded with a slow, dim, dangerous whisper.
Curmiliya:
"…Yes.
Just wait."
Their faces were hidden.
Their bodies unseen.
Only their voices echoed across the volcanic void.

END OF CHAPTER 92
Author Note:
Bye bye, my sweet readers!
And if anyone is wondering why you couldn't see Civileaon and Curmiliya's visuals_
they were speaking from inside pure darkness…
and their true forms will be revealed later.
Just wait.
