## Summary

Theo and his group approach Dimitrie's castle and inside of it they confront the Vampire. Dimitrie notes the consequences of starting the age of Cosmos. He then recounts the past of when his clan, as well as the other clans, worked in harmony to end the age of ultimate chaos. But at the present time, if Chaos were to end, he'd lose his immortality, due to his art that grants him immortality.

Aishela then argues that although she's lost her Art she still has the strength to protect those dear to her like her sister. She then tries to attack Dimitrie who then transports the group to the basement floor of the castle. Down there, Emma and Luna's elder brother Aion appears with a coffin with the true body of Dimitrie and that the one they're facing is just his shadow. Aion then threatens to kill the original body if Dimitrie doesn't surrender. Perplexingly humored by the threat, Dimitrie creates several clones of himself and claims that even if his original body were to die he'd live on with the shadows he creates. Unnerved, Aion kills the original body, but this doesn't destroy Dimitrie's shadow clones.

Dimitrie's clones then incapacitate Aion and his twin sisters and soon incapacitate Theo, Siluca, Irvin, and Aishela in a warped spacial area. Due to the power of Priscilla's Holy Grail, they all emancipate themselves from the warped world and return to the castle floor. It's there that Aion uses his fangs to pin Dimitrie down and have Theo finish off the vampire with his Crest an empowered sword. Although Dimitrie was dead, it was at a bitter cost as Aion sacrificed himself for it to happen. It's also shown that a single shadow of Dimitrie was still alive, but it was deemed harmless as it lost nearly all of its power in the battle.

In the city of Eramu, Theo and Siluca enter the compound of the Mage Academy and confront Hubertus. Answering all of Theo's questions, Hubertus reveals that all of his answers would be revealed once he touches the Pandora statute. Although Siluca believes that it's a trap, Theo insists on learning the truth to everything. Theo then touches Pandora, and he along with Siluca are confronted by Pandora. They learn from her that the human race was once highly advanced. Hubris along with the discovery of a new energy that was supposed to be used to have the human race evolve was used as a weapon instead. Pandora then proclaims that if the age of chaos were to end, then humanity would once again regain the ultimate energy again. This would lead to the destruction of the entire world. Now privy to what Pandora tried to prevent, Theo still intends to end the age of Chaos, regardless of the consequences that may come. Declaring the beginning of the end, Hubertus drinks a vial of poison and kills himself.

Afterward, in front of a large audience and the lords of the Imperial Army, Theo ascends to the role of Emperor. Furthermore, Theo names the newly established empire Leon and designates Eramu as the capital.

Three years later, Theo and Siluca along with Alexis and Marrine have a joint wedding. There also, Theo activates his Grand Crest and finally ends the Age of Chaos.
