Remilia unleashed Scarlet Sighe Nightless Castle," summoning a giant cross glowing with a crimson aura. The red light bzed fiercely, radiatiless fmes that burned upon tact like searing danmaku. Its ominous glow paihe ndscape with an eerie shade of scarlet. Yet, for all its might, Remilia remained motionless at the ter of the cross, an immovable queen on her battlefield.

  I kept my distance, watg the raging aura dance before me. Getting too eaain pain, but I had no iion of rushing in. Instead, I pulled out Mystia's spell card, her handwritten words of good luck still visible. A smile crossed my lips. "Alright, Mystia. Let's see if your song reach her."

  I activated the card, whispering its name: Night-Blindness "Song of the Night Sparrow."

  The world darkened. An unnatural night swallowed the battlefield, dev the red moon's light. The crimson cross faded into shadow, leaving Remilia surrounded by plete darkness.

  "What is this?" Remilia's voice echoed, her tone sharp with annoyance. She looked around, but her eyes found nothing. Not even the fai glow of her own spell. "Is this your secret card to defeat me?" She let out a mog ugh, though it sourained. "Don't make me ugh! Even if I 't see you, your fate is now tied to my spear. Gungnir, kill him!"

  The crimson spear materialized in her hand, glowing faintly against the shadows. She threw it with terrifying speed, the on slig through the darkness with a deadly hiss.

  But then, she heard a shout "Gungnir!" the sound of metal g against metal rang out, eg through the void.

  When the darkness cleared, Remilia's eyes widened in disbelief. Her spear was halted mid-air, blocked by aical crimson spear—my own Gungnir. It hovered, crag with power, refleg her stunned expression.

  "You... copied my spear?" she whispered, her fidence shaken. Her gaze darted around, realizing I was nowhere in sight. Panic flickered in her eyes before she looked up, sensing the danger above her.

  Her jaw dropped. A massive yin-yang orb hung in the sky, casting a shadow over her. Its size was absurd, dwarfing even the red cross she had summoned. "That... That's Reimu's..." she stammered, reizing the legendary onmyoudou attack that destroy her mansion.

  A massive yin-yang orb loomed above her, its shadow swallowing the light as it hovered with an overwhelming preses size was monstrous, a colossal sphere that seemed capable of crushing anythih it.

  I looked at the giant orb, my heart rag. This was my trump card—the winning move that I copy from Reimu or more like I bought it from Reimu. At the time when I use it, it was just a tiny sphere, no bigger than an egg. Reimu ughed when she saw my fused expression.

  She crossed her arms and expined, "Without onmyoudou, it's useless. You don't have the spiritual power to trol it, so it'll stay tiny like that. You'll just be throwing an egg at someone." She smirked, a pyful gliurning to her eyes. "Maybe you make it big if you lie and say I'm a shrine maiden." she teased, her ughter eg through the shrine.

  Back then, I tried everything. I threw the tiny orb at trees, at roothing happened. I even used my magic to grow it, but the most I got was the size of a watermelon. It athetic.

  But now... it was enormous, radiating power. It felt alive, responding to my will as if it were aension of myself. It was because of my ability—my lie had bee the truth.

  When Remilia said she knew about my ability, I had to ge my pn to make her not to believe me. My pn almost fail because of her sweet words.

  All this time, I had lied to myself. I vinced myself that I could win without my power. And Remilia believed it? No, she didn't just believe it. She was furious because she didn't believe it at all. Maybe she saw my fate of losing to her or something. Also there was no point in lying to Remilia about using onmyoudou. If I tried, she'd likely just stare at me in bewilderment, w what oh I was talking about.

  I smiled. "Thank you, Remilia. Your disbelief is what made this possible."

  I throw my hand at Remilia, the giant yin-yang orb desding toward her. It moved with the weight of iability, a colossal force of truth born from a lie.

  Remilia's expression shifted. Her eyes widened as she saw the giant orb desding upon her. She stood motionless, her face frozen in shock. The shadow of the orb enveloped her, blog out all light. But she didn't move. She didn't run. She simply watched it fall, her bid, her red eyes unwavering.

  A soft smile appeared on her lips. "So that's how it is... You really are a liar... until the very end."

  She looked as if she had glimpsed something unimaginable, her crimson eyes wide with awe. Her voice trembled, barely above a whisper, "To think... that you ged my fate like this."

  And the world faded into light.
