It was a meaningful kiss, a kiss of salvation as if the light from the creator of all things shone upon the Phantom's closed up soul.
Finally, the Phantom was convinced by Christine's determined love.
At the last moment, thanks to the kiss, he finally understood that true love was not about imprisonment or taking.
The Phantom backed off and turned around to avoid the girl's gaze. At the same time, he let go of the noose around Raoul's neck.
After a while, he raised up his hands and waved to Christine and Raoul, signaling them to leave.
Christine and Raoul rushed towards each other in disbelief.
In the end, Christine ran towards the Phantom, taking the ring he gave her off and returning it to him.
The Phantom looked down at his palm and slowly closed it. The ring was wrapped inside, then step by step, slowly, he walked towards the throne on the stage alone. He looked at the lovers leaving as he wailed on his own.
