It'll work! I... I promise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sofia sounded like she had gone mad, but there wasn't much of an option in here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever she was suggesting might be our last resort, dammit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I mean, I could probably win anyways, but the reactions afterwards wouldn't be good to deal with, and there is a bit too much to risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So whatever she had in mind, it was probably better anyways!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay... We'll trust you!\" Emily nodded. \"We don't get many options anyways.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maria is incredibly strong, but even she's struggling...\" Alma sighed. \"Please Sofia, help us out! I'll do anything!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emily and Alma held Sofia's hands, and then, I gave them mine while inside of my transformed, phantasmal body. Apparently, this was the only requisite necessary for whatever Sofia wanted to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forming a circle with Sofia in the front, the small floating mechanical heart with angelic wings floated into the middle of the circle. It emanated a bright aura of pure golden and white light, spreading around us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FLAAASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Threads of light connected us all together, in fact, it connected their Dream Hearts with my body.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each tearing blows generated explosions through my ethereal body, which was damn annoying. I had to forcefully regenerate, but because he tore through space, that became increasingly hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha! DIE!

It changed me, it transformed me completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, as if it were a curse, the darkness that made me who I was disappeared completely, my entire body was remade out of glistening light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Copper and gold colored armor covered on spikes materialized around my body, reinforcing my strength and durability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt my entire body being washed by the cold and refreshing waters, as my hair became long azure spirit water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a mechanical heart started beating faster, infusing itself into my entire being, replacing my heart itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mechanical wires and metal filled my entire body, fusing with my entire being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What in the world is going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Am I becoming a fucking mech?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holy fucking shit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive beam of pure golden light surged from my chest, hitting the Nightmare Lord in the face and blowing away half of his ugly malformed, aberrant head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"GRAAARRGGH! W-What...! What was that?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glared at me in disbelief with countless crimson eyes opening all over his body, constantly blinking in disbelief at my new, metallic physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha! Okay, this is fucking awesome!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I laughed heartily; I couldn't believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The presences and souls of my friends resonated within my very body and soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My new body emerged amidst a fog of gold and silver essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>FLAAASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I shone like a damn sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this wasn't the same as using the Sunlight Divinity or whatever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, this felt much better, I felt...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly freed from all the darkness that made me, even if temporary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made me happier than I imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I glanced at my own body through my reflection on the semi-transparent body of the Nightmare Lord, who was still shocked at my appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I resembled a huge knight-like mech, quite literally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With big, heavy-looking armor covering my entire body resembling the armor of Emily, covered on lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My long hair had become azure colored spiritual water, flowing all the way down and spiraling around my body like an endless waterfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My face was now made of silver steel, resembling a beautiful doll, but my eyes were covered by my golden winged helmet, resembling the helmet of Valkyries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My bulky arms and legs were super armored, and every finger was covered on armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that wasn't all, even within me I felt like I was now made of a combination of metal and phantasmal and spiritual energies fused together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within my chest, I noticed a heart-shaped metal place, and within my chest, there was the heart-shaped \"spirit\" that Sofia had summoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alongside that, a pair of long silver and gold colored wings made of metallic feathers spread\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What in the world?! This is amazing, Sofia!\" Emily's voice echoed from within my chest. \"I-I can't believe it! Our powers are one with Maria?!\" said Alma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes... this is what it is!\" Sofia said. \"After I finally accepted you... after I finally apologized... my new power is... to rely on my friends and combine our strength? So damn corny...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sofia started crying tears of happiness, as I noticed her body size had gone back to normal as\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're back to normal too!\" Emily cried happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeaaah!\" Alma nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls were inside of a metallic chamber within my chest, which connected their dream\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>hearts directly with Sofia's strange \"spirit\" and then me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was really like they were piloting me but...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I kind of like that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright girls, ready for round two?!\" I asked them. \"We're beating this bastard, and then\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>we're getting out of here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeeaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trio roared in unison, cheering alongside me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their Dream Essence flowed into my body, empowering my new transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever form you took... It doesn't... fucking... MATTER!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nightmare Lord roared, distorting space itself and appearing in front of me, his massive\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>space-distorting claws rushed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"DIE!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CLAAASH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've gotten very sluggish, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, I intercepted his space-distorting claws with a huge weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A combination of Anubis Scythe and Alma's staff with Emily's armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A huge golden bident!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Azure waters swirled around it, and then large quantities of electricity erupted as I swung the\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>bident towards the Nightmare Lord's chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRASH!
