[Number of strategies decreased from 3 to 2]
: "MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA!" he said as I reached the ground with so much force that I had bounced back up.
[Number of strategies decreased from 2 to 1]
: "YOU'RE JUST TOO WEAK, SO JUST STAY DOWN!" he shouted as he gave me a final blow to the face as the shockwave was too powerful that it was able to ionize the air around us making it to compress into plasma then it caused a massive explosion as everything went black.

Dante's p.o.v:
Unknown location:
'No no no, I can't just give up like t-this.' I thought
'Huh where I'm i-I' I thought as I was in a void terrain with no sign of life in sight. It seems different from limbo since limbo has a rocky terrain but this place is just...…. Void.
I then stood up from the ground and started to look for a way out from this... place, as I started to notice that the terrain had started to…..change?
: "what's going on here." I said in confusion, as two shadowy figures had started to emerge out of no way.
'I will not hand over the chronicle to you your holiness for what you want to achieve will cause chaos throughout the realms!' the shadowy figure said in angered tone.
: "f-father Alfred….. What's going on?" I said in a very confused tone, as to why I'm having this vision, why now.
'Your disobedience towards the lord angers me true saint. If you leave this holy sanctuary without agreeing to this, you will die.' The other shadowy figure said, as he pointed his hand towards father Alfred, who summoned his chronicle and glared at the 'his holiness'.
: "Father Alfred!" I shouted trying to reach over to him, as the holiness hand started to glow and his own chronicle arise too.
'You will pay with your life saint!' the figure shouted in rage.
'Then I rather risk it than risking the lives of billions!' father Alfred shouted.
'HOLY ART: GOD'S PUNISHMENT! / HOLY CRONICLE: ENLIGHTEN GRACE!' they both shouted in union.
: "FATHER ALFRED!" I shouted, as the scene then changed.
------
: "HUH AARGGG! MY BODY AAAHHHH! UNHAND ME!" I shouted, as I felt something restraining me and it hurts like hell.
'Enough! Azul your time is over!' asura said.
'W-wait azul, I'm not azul' I thought, as the chains started to hurt more and more.
: "AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!" I tried to speak but its only roars that keeps on coming out, as I had have enough of this pain and tried to hit asura away so that the chains will stop and so will the pain since it was to unbearable but unfortunately it was blocked by three of the executioners.
: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!" I roared out loud to push them away but then they casted a frontal attack spell.
'Majestic rapture!' they shouted, a very bright light had pushed me back and then overcome me, as everything just turned white and then the scene had started to change again but this time I was there when the 11th executioner had fully charged up his blast and had threw it toward us.
'DIEEEE!!!!' the executioner shouted, as he blast had already started to destroy the whole city and I had seen that both rin and trinity bodies had started to disintegrate before my very eyes.
: "No no, not again!" I shouted in despair, as I couldn't bear to see this scene all over again as I then turn to see father Alfred who looking at me just like on that day I lost them with that regret feeling but still had a kind smile with tears in his eyes.
'always remember to protect your love ones on matter what...dante' he said as he too started to disintegrate before my very eyes as I had started to cry and cry but then I too started to disintegrate, as it had started from my finger tips to my chest as all I could do was just to shouted in pain, despair and agony. Then many scenes and memories started to flash like a fast slide show but then seized and I then saw myself staring at me as he started to walk straight to me and as he was doing so, his skin had started to burn and his form started to change of that of death's appearance and had now started to glare at me, as he then summoned his scythe and had started to chant something, as he got closer to me.
: "we are one." He said as my body had started to change it form.
: "we are above all" he said as he was now right in front of me in arm length.
: "we are despair" he said as he brought his scythe up in a downward slash stance.
: "i-I'm not death and I never will be!" I shouted but he glared at me.
: "yes…..but WE ARE DEATH!" he shouted as his swung his scythe at me in which I just stood there in fear.
: "AAAAAAHHHHHH!!" I shouted as I shot right up.
Thud!
I was hit on the head by death as it hurt a lot.
: "OUCH! What was that for huh?" I shouted at death in anger.
: "WELL YOU JUST WOKE UP SCREAMING LIKE A MAD MAN AND ALMOST GAVE ME A SPLITTING HEAD ACHE BRAT!" he fired right back at me.
: "but why did you have to hit me that hard huh, I almost felt my skull crack" I said as I was angry at him for doing that.
: "sheesh, who does that…." I mutter out so that he won't hear that but it seems that I was wrong.
THUD!
: "I HEARD THAT YOU KNOW!" he shouted as he hit me on the head again.
: "sorry okay sheesh and stop hitting me before I …pass ….out wait where Asterix... did I lost!" I said as I was afraid that I had lost and had failed the trail but instead death stared at me with a confused look on his face, still can't tell with the mask on.
: "WAIT, SO YOU DON'T REMEMBER ANYTHING" he said in a curious tone which I didn't understand at all.
: "n-no… all I could remember was getting KO by Asterix after that I just….. Can't" I said as death looked somehow conflicted in his mind as he could understand what had happened and it was the first time I have seen him so…. Confused.
: "but I did have some weird dreams or at least I think they were. About some past event that took place but I wasn't there at least I know I wasn't but it felt like I have been there." I said as death eyes had widened in shock then he glared at me.
: "WAIT YOU MEAN… YOU HAD FLASHES OF EVENTS THAT YOU HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE?" he asked me as I think so.
: "yes if my memory serve me right but they was on that I couldn't understand and I know I haven't seen it in any of the history book at least." I said as death now looked serious and stood up.
: "IS THAT SO.... AND WHAT WAS THIS…. EVENT YOU SAW ….. DANTE" death said as I could feel the aura around him change to that of pure despair but how he knew was that death actually called him by his name and not brat.
: "sure…. Well I saw like gigantic being made of cosmic stars or that's what I think and they were... fighting, I think…. But the weird thing was that…. I saw you fighting with them." I said as death stared up in the sky and tighten his grip on his scythe and it seems that he is angry at something i said….. I hope not.
: "I SEE...…. THEN I GUESS IT'S TIME YOU KNOW" death said to me but I'm still confused at what he meant.
: "for me to know what?" I asked him as his eyes glowed red and so was his scythe as the aura around him became... more powerful. It truly felt like being in the present of a god…. No something even stronger than that.
: "EVERYTHING ABOUT THE CHURCH" he said as I was still confused by this.
: "do you mean" I said as I might understand a little bit of what he was saying, then death turned to me with a dominating glare and presence that filled the air.
: "TELL ME DANTE…. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THE OF THE HOLY MONARCH"
