Nova used her interdimensional imprisonment ability, a one-time power, on herself and Kage, imprisoning themselves in a dimension between universes. Nova was fighting against Kage by controlling interdimensional energy.
Using her power meticulously, she cut off the Kage's attacks and penetrated his defenses. However, Kage was growing stronger with each passing moment and was determined to defeat Nova.
In the middle of the battle, Nova's energy began to drain. Thousands of years of wars had almost exhausted him. Kage saw Nova's moment of weakness and quickly attacked. While his scythe cut through Nova's defenses, it inflicted deep wounds on him.
Nova never gave up, even when she was in pain. He continued to fight until his last breath. However, in the face of Kage's power and ruthlessness, he eventually fell to the ground and died. Kage brutally ate Nova's soul. As Nova's power grew along with his soul, Kage's dark presence grew larger. Now the Kage had much more power to invade and destroy universes.
Using his power, Kage looked around, but no matter how far he advanced, nothing was in his way. He moved forward without stopping, spreading his death power around and scanning everything. But she felt like something was missing.
Just then, he sensed a spirit, the size of a tiny crumb, that caught the Kage's attention. Using all his strength, he went in that direction and saw an old man in front of him. This elder was almost dead, and thanks to the Kage's death power, his wounds were healed and he became rejuvenated.
Kage asked the elder where this place was and how he could get out. However, the old man said that he did not remember anything and did not even know how he got here. But he stated that he had something on his mind, he explained that there was a temple here thousands of years ago and the answers could be found there.
Kage listened to what the elder said and took his soul and turned it into a necklace. He said to her, "I will never forget you" and headed towards the temple. Throughout his journey, Kage's mind was in turmoil. By swallowing Nova's soul and increasing his power, Kage felt the darkness within her, yet felt a bond with her.
When he arrived at the temple, Kage realized that this sacred place had lost its glory many years ago. It was now a place full of ruins. However, the Kage instinctively continued to advance and moved deeper into the temple.
As he was making his way through the temple corridors, his eyes suddenly caught sight of a book. When he opened the book's pages, he found descriptions of an ancient power that had the ability to control interuniverse dimensions. This power could show him the way out.
With the information he gained from the book, Kage realized that he needed life force. Although he had the power of death, life energy was required to use the ancient power described in the book. This left the Kage faced with a difficult choice.
Grabbing his scythe, Kage began to attack the void in desperation. With each cutting movement, the space was torn apart and sparks of energy were scattered around. But this was a mission that would take forever, and he had to keep cutting until he found his way out.
For millions of years, the Kage attacked the void, forgetting his purpose, his identity, and why he wanted out. He was just going on reflexes alone, desperately trying to cut through the gap. However, unexpectedly the gap started to crack.
Suddenly, another being was thrown into the void. Kage immediately attacked with his reflexes and killed him and ate his soul. This unexpected event allowed Kage to recover his strength a little more.
When the Kage swallowed the soul, he paused for a moment and wondered who was left behind. Could he remember himself? However, this soul, bearing the traces of the past, did not remember who he was or why he was thrown into the void.
Kage continued his journey, focusing on his goal. He continued to use the power of death to gather his strength, and each dying soul provided him with a little more energy. Desperate to find his way out, he moved forward, continuing to slash and tear through the gap.
Finally, their efforts paid off. The void cracked further and the Kage was greeted with a beam of light. This was the way out. Proceeding with his instincts, Kage crossed the boundaries of the void and reached another dimension.
