Grand Academy- The Grand War

Transcendent

"Do you truly wish me to fight me, someone, who ascended into a greater form?" Liana asked as she unleashes another attack on everyone.

 "Twilight Pulse!" Liana unleashes a beam of twilight at everyone. 

"Melodious Echo!" Jessica lets a melody soundwave, blocking Liana's attack. 

"Force Shield Protection!" Stephanie jumps alongside Jessica and forms a shield, blocking Liana's Twilight Pulse with all they got. 

"Lion's Roar!" Raphael releases a loud roar which shattered the ground beneath Liana, disrupting her.

"Thanks, Raphael," Stephanie said as she falls on her knees with Jessica due to exhaustion from blocking Liana's attack.

 "Come on! We need to get to the other side now!" Ren said as he carries Stephanie while Kagawa helped Jessica. 

Everyone reached the other hand just before the bridge collapse entirely. 

"Come on, let's go before Liana comes back and start a rampage again," Ren said while moving deeper into the island. 

As everyone settles down, a teenage boy came and approach them.

 "Who are you?" Stephanie asked.

 "My name is Khan and what are you guys doing on this part of the Creation Ruins?" Khan asked while taking a seat near the group. 

"We were at the ruins when our friend suddenly went berserk and we ended up here," Raphael explained while meditating with his animal spirits.

 "What's the cause of your friend going berserk?" Khan asked while taking a seat beside Stephanie.

 "I think it's because of the United Crown. After she wore it, she became like that," Stephanie explained.

 "So what we have to do is remove the crown from her head and she'll be back to normal," Jessica said excitedly.

 "But how will we do it? We can't even get close to her. She's too overpowered," Ren said worriedly.

 "I can go invisible, so maybe we can make use of that," Khan said while turning invisible. 

"Perhaps we could distract Liana and Stephanie you levitate the invisible Khan towards Liana and take off the crown," Thanatos suggested while slicing down a tree with his scythe. 

Everyone agreed to the plan but before they could get everything in place, Liana had already started attacking.

 "Gears Chaos!" Liana unleashed giants gears that shredded the forest trees and caused explosions. 

"Alright, Khan. Time to do what you do best!" Stephanie said while levitating Khan before he turned invisible.

 "Death's Storm!" Thanatos unleash a storm of blades towards Liana but Liana commanded the gear to block the attack.

 "Damn, she's strong!" Ren said as he tried to blast Liana.

 Liana stretched out her hand send the blast somewhere else instead. 

"A little to the right. No, wait, A little to the left," Khan directed because Stephanie couldn't see him. 

"Almost reached her crown," Khan said while stretching his hand towards Liana's crown and when he finally reached it, Khan pulled it away from Liana as fast as he could. The moment the crown was pulled away, a bright light flashed and Liana returned to normal.

Stephanie levitated both Khan and Liana down slowly. 

"Liana are you okay?" Jessica ran towards Liana and asked her. 

"Yeah, I think so but what happened actually?" Liana asked when she suddenly noticed the United Crown beside her. 

"Nevermind, it was the crown wasn't it?" Liana asked before the United Crown disappeared. 

"Don't worry. Everything's okay now," Casam said as he helps Liana up from her feet.

 "Say, Khan, you should attend the Grand Academy, you'll learn much more," Stephanie suggested.

 Liana stood from afar, at the edge of the bridge, looking at the others, laughing away happily, Liana smiled.

"I think it's time to return home now," Liana said as she opens a rift with the new rift key Xaria gave her. 

"Alright, come on, Khan. You'll love the academy," Jessica said as she pulls Khan into the rift. 

Everyone went into the rift except Liana.

 "I'll see you guys later. I've got some things to settle," Liana said as she closes the current rift and opens a new one and crosses it.
