The battle concluded.
The remaining shadows all flew up to the clouds, and the Honey Candy Girl army descended from the skies and stopped fighting.
The dark clouds parted to reveal the sunlight, a beautiful pillar that pierced through the clouds.
The light illuminated the city, quickly scattering the lingering darkness. But the city wasn't restored to its original form. Instead, it started collapsing.
It was time for the dream to end.
Seiji and Mayuzumi weren't in a hurry to leave. Instead, they accompanied Reo and waited for her to stop crying and calm down.
"Brother Harano..."
"Let me introduce you, Reo-chan," Seiji said. "This is Mayuzumi Amami. For all this time, you've been treating her as your mother... you should say something to her."
Reo looked towards Mayuzumi.
"Sorry... I've given you so much trouble." The little girl bowed and apologized.
