"Is it done?" Matthias looked. Currently, Earth is in shambles. Key and Jeremy are both leading their men to quell the problem.
Matthias nodded with approval as he saw them still surviving even after 255 million years.
He diverted his attention to his domain. For the five days that he was in the hospital, the domain has developed greatly. A total of 24 worlds were added and 8000 stars were attracted. The others were huge and small asteroids.
Some bizarre worlds produced different species, with a lizard-like species reigning over a world fifteen times larger than Earth.
Some stars that were on the verge of supernova were absorbed by the Galactic Beings and the beings created smaller stars from the excess energy.
Some Chaos Beasts have already risen and are currently being fought by the denizens of their respective worlds.
One of those worlds is Earth, which made Matthias interested. He looked over and saw that the humans were on the verge of defeat. He also noticed that Jeremy was already gone while Key was doing his all to defeat the Chaos Beast.
Matthias watched him and was shocked at his friend's last move. He summoned a being that was created by the laws of Earth that has control over the Earth's laws. He used it to wish and banished all of the beasts out of Earth and did something very shocking.
He used his remaining bit of power and will to revert the world to 255 million years later without the beasts. His will and spirit formed a huge barrier surrounding the world, denying any foreign demon with ill intention to enter the world.
Matthias was touched by Key's sacrifice. Suddenly, one of the ascendants flew down once more and hurried to Earth, she found the chaos rod and took it with her. She routed down, ending up seeing the world's current form. The ascendant, who was a woman, cried and cried and descended to the world. Seeing that, Matty couldn't take it anymore and teared up. He flew and looked at Nuwa, "I shall retrieve their souls and clean it off of the false information that I implanted on the artificial soul. I'll go out and sleep." She nodded and watched over the domain.
Matthias returned to his body and summoned the two souls. He walked to Key's room and entered it. Inside, Key's pale body was laying down on the bed. He placed the severed soul inside and mended it with his powers. He also healed them from fatigue and calmed their souls. He silently left and made himself invisible from the naked eye. He flew towards Jeremy's room and did the same.
He went home after and flew to his room and slept with a small teardrop on his eyes, not because he is sad, but because he was proud of Key's bravery and sacrifice and how the woman who ascended to Alphan went down once more just to return to Key.
The next day, Matthias woke up and helped Key's mother, Stacy, with cooking and preparing for breakfast. Key's father, Joseph, loved his wife's sandwiches but loved Matthias' omelette more, so he expected the delicious feast.
Suddenly, Key's room's door flew wide open and looked at Matthias incredulously. He sat down and stammered, "Damn, I had a really long dream, but it feels real."
"What is it about?" Stacy asked.
"I just lived for a very long time and saw everything rise and fall." He answered.
"Ooh, interesting. Did you learn some things?" Stacy looked at him and smiled, "Yeah. A lot, actually." He answered.
"Are you going back to school, Matt?" Aunt Stacy suddenly asked. "Right. You're already okay. Are you going back?" Uncle Joseph nodded.
"Yes, Aunty and Uncle. I plan on going back ASAP." Matthias smiled and nodded.
"Okay. I'll go to the school tomorrow and enroll you."
Matthias thanked them and resumed eating. Key was still absentminded and was playing with his food, which enraged his mother.
But she was also weirded out as even though Key still looked the same, he felt different. It is as if he was a lot more mature..
Later on, Jeremy also arrived with a hint of coldness. He greeted Key's parents and sat on the couch. Key looked at him and smiled. He just slightly nodded and greeted, "Hey, Jeremy."
Jeremy's eyes turned strange and looked at Key, "What's wrong?" To which Key responded with, "Huh?"
"Something changed with you, I am definitely sure. The vibe around you is different." Jeremy said. "I feel that too. If I wasn't his mother and didn't have that mother's instinct, I would've taken him as a doppelganger and a whole different person." Stacy nodded.
"Oh, really? It's just that the memories of that dream of mine seem to stick to me. That's why the instincts and habits of mine inside that dream still remained within me." He chuckled.
"Dream? Is it a long dream where I am also present?" Jeremy suddenly asked. Key's eyes opened wide and nodded, "Yes."
"Is it a dream where we faced the Godbeast?" Jeremy turned solemn.
"Yes!" Key gasped, "How did you know?" Jeremy sat on a couch and said, "I dreamt of it too."
Jeremy recounted his dreams which made Key gasp. "That's included in my dream!"
"I think it isn't a dream." Jeremy muttered and looked at Matthias, "Care to explain what you told us yesterday?"
Matthias looked baffled, "What do you mean?"
"What do you know, Matthias?" Jeremy asked.
"I know what? I really don't understand what you meant by that." Matthias shook his head to deny their accusation.
"Then why is it so timely that you just asked us yesterday about going to the past and witnessing civilizations fall and rise?" Jeremy asked.
"You really experienced it? I just asked you those because I experienced it myself when I was in a coma." Matthias answered calmly without a hint of lie seeping through and being detected by his 255 million-year old friend.
"Really? Hmm." Although Jeremy nodded, he still has some speculations about Matthias' involvement in what happened to them.
"I guess we're off, then." Key waved his hand and dragged Jeremy out of the house.
Matthias looked at them until they left the place and then returned to his things.
