A brilliantly gleaming golden Cloth fell from the sky, flashing with gilded radiance.
The Cloth was semi-humanoid, with two faces and four arms—one face wicked, the other benevolent.
It was the Gemini Gold Cloth.
Damian knew that summoning the Gemini Gold Cloth here, in this Another Dimension with only the two of them, meant Saga was going all out to kill him.
The man no longer cared about exposing his identity.
In the blink of an eye, the Gemini Cloth sheathed Saga, wrapping him tight.
Damian couldn't help a silent sigh.
You could see the gulf between Bronze and Gold Saints just by the Cloths.
A Gold Cloth covered far more than a Bronze—only a few areas remained bare, with nearly the whole body enclosed.
He would have loved to bury Saga's corpse in his graveyard, but this fight was too perilous—who lived and who died was far from settled.
Damian tried to use his telekinetic coordinates to exit Another Dimension—
Only to find the strong spatial torsion had erased them.
Clearly, Saga had twisted the entire space into a temporary seal, wiping out the coordinates.
"You're forcing me to go all out, huh!"
Damian's expression hardened, displeasure rising.
Without a sure chance at victory, he had no desire to face Saga head-on.
The man's ultimate, Galaxian Explosion, was simply too strong—said to rival a Milky Way-scale detonation.
It was not only the strongest technique of Gemini through the ages, but arguably the deadliest physical strike among all Gold Saints.
Titan Nova shouldn't be much weaker than Galaxian Explosion, but Damian didn't want to gamble.
And this evil "Black Saga" before him seemed even stronger than expected.
He could wield Another Dimension for cross‑space combat; his Cosmo was monstrous—fierce, evil, brutally domineering.
Without a Cloth, he had eaten three Great Horn lightspeed blows and remained standing.
Black Saga's power far exceeded Damian's estimates—stronger even than the "white‑haired Evil Saga" of the other tale.
This savage Black Saga looked to be Saga at his combat peak.
Once he donned Gemini, Saga's Cosmo climbed higher, burning. It cloaked the entire Another Dimension to the point of suffocation, the air itself warping.
A razor killing intent locked onto Damian.
It made the scalp prickle.
"Since you're so eager to die, I'll oblige you."
"Burn, my Cosmo!"
"Second gear—full power!"
Damian's Cosmo flared and sublimed.
At once, his muscles swelled, bones crackling like firecrackers, even his height rising. Slabs of corded muscle bulged, each pulsing with Cosmo.
Wrapped in the Pegasus Cloth, he merely looked a head taller than before; his musculature stood out more clearly, though his chest did not show.
His entire physique was like armor now, each muscle block radiating Cosmo.
The Pegasus Cloth on him blazed with a shine not inferior to a Gold Cloth.
His Cosmo was burning to the limit, its waves saturating Another Dimension, pressing against Saga's own.
"Your Cosmo is extremely aggressive. I've never seen a Cosmo so purely offensive."
"The Cyclops was only a third‑tier god, and tainted—an empty shell. No wonder you beat it."
"Interesting. You're strong—worthy of my greatest Gemini mystery."
Saga felt the man's Cosmo driving into and smothering his own—and grew even more excited.
"The sound of the Milky Way's myriad stars bursting."
"The stars scream as they're torn apart."
As Saga spoke, his hands joined, a phantom Milky Way blooming between them.
Several stars of different hues rose behind him.
"Galaxian Explosion!"
Countless colored stars fired forth, as though a whole galaxy was detonating ahead.
What had to come would come!
At the same moment, Damian's Cosmo burned at its peak. He raised his hand and brought his palm slamming down at Saga.
"Titan Nova!"
As the brutal Cosmo was unleashed, space compressed at once. A colossal force born of compressed space bursting smashed into the onrushing stars.
It was like an immense Titan nova crashing into a river of stars.
They collided violently. Star after star shattered in the spatial blast; more rose to take their place—canceling, tearing, smashing again and again.
"What? Titan Nova is getting pierced!"
Watching his Titan Nova riddled by the storm of stars, Damian lifted both arms to brace.
A massive star smashed into him in an instant.
Then a great battering, crushing force struck and hurled him bodily away.
Saga was smirking as his Galaxian Explosion broke through the man's ultimate—when that crushing pressure of spatial rupture slammed back at him.
Boom!
Saga felt a heavy blow all over, pain running through every limb, his body hurled skyward.
What a godlike man!
As expected, I'm still not strong enough…
"Didn't take too much damage—Titan Nova must have canceled a lot of the star‑blast."
Suspended midair, Damian glanced back.
Saga too had been blasted up by Titan Nova and floated in the sky.
Damian laughed. That was better.
You slap me, I slap you. That's fair.
An instant later he dropped back onto the broken floor of Another Dimension, steadied himself, and blew out a breath—Cosmo still roaring.
Their clash of ultimates had unleashed devastating aftershocks.
The temple inside Another Dimension was hammered into huge chunks, like drifting islets in endless void, widening the gap between them.
"Gemini Gold Saint Saga—not bad."
Damian stretched out a hand, and the sack on the floor flew to his grip.
"You can't escape my Another Dimension!"
Saga also regained his footing—his Cosmo rising, not falling.
He wanted a second round!
Madman's gonna mad…
"Escape? Eh… I just don't feel like fighting. Keep this up and it's a boring death match. I'll go back and power up."
Damian waved. "Till we meet again."
"Sekishiki Meikaiha!"
With a ripple of space, he vanished from Another Dimension.
Saga's forced torsion had scrambled the space; telekinetic waypoints couldn't return him to the world.
Sekishiki Meikaiha had no such problem.
It locked directly onto the Underworld's Yomi Hirasaka—no other coordinates needed—a 100% point‑to‑point transit.
I only came to make a cameo and lift something easy—why fight to the death with a lunatic?
Goodbye!
Saga stared at the empty air opposite him. "Nani…!"
