In front of the Center of Everything.
Within the flowing light.
A teleportation portal, preset, opened punctually after Yi Lin and Nemesis plunged into the Origin Sea like meteors.
At the instant of the "Secret Key" invasion, "Scholar K," who had retreated many years ago due to "cowardice," left behind a contingency, becoming the most crucial part of blocking Nemesis.
With a flash of light, NeiR, Bella, and Neo stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the Center of Everything.
A platform composed of flowing light rose from below, and NeiR, Bella, and Neo stood before this giant polygonal crystal.
"I remember now..."
Bella and Neo exchanged glances.
"Time and again, we came before it as 'Saviors.'
Bella, tears streaming down her face: "It mocks us, it underestimates humans. It believes that the existence of humans is solely to give birth to 'it'!"
Neo nodded: "I remember too."
"But, the first time we came here, before the Center of Everything."
