The boy slowly backed away, and the frantic Haruhi Suzumiya tried to chase after him, but Yuki Nagato's lips moved, and she began to erase Haruhi Suzumiya's memories. Perhaps Yuki Nagato thought that if she didn't do it now, Haruhi Suzumiya would probably break down from grief?

Haruhi Suzumiya's eyes gradually became confused, and the little boy also wiped away his tears, following Mo Mo away step by step, turning back to look at her every step. When Haruhi Suzumiya finally came to her senses, she looked at Yuki Nagato, then at Mikuru, and said, "Why are you all looking at me like that? And what are we doing here... Wow, what the hell is this? Why are there so many girls sleeping? Are we all camping in the wild?"

……

"Son, do you hate me?"

"Get out of here, who's your son?"

"Hey, are you crazy? You dare say you're not my son?"

"I am my mother's son, and I will take the surname Liang Gong. Who wants to be your son? You can't even protect your mother, and you want me to take action and die with your incompetent father? Aren't you ashamed?"

“Son, I don’t remember raising you to be like this in the past five years.”

"I'm sorry, but I'm self-taught. Just because you have 20,100 women besides your mother, you don't deserve to be my father!"

"Hey, you're addicted... Oh dear, we seem to have forgotten something."

"What is it?"

"When I was naming you, I forgot to ask your mother's opinion. This is a big deal."

"You know this is a big deal. I'm five years old by age, and I don't even have a name yet. As an adult, don't you feel ashamed?"

"It's not too late now. Let me think, what should I call you..."

"I've already said I'm my mother's son, and I want to take the surname Ryougu. I've already decided, my name is Ryougu Shiro, isn't that simple and concise?"

"Then where do you put me? And what the hell is Suzumiya Shiro?"

"Who told you to deliver me using quantum light? And the world you created is predominantly white. If I didn't like white, I would have developed a mental illness long ago."

"That can't be Liang Gongbai! I am your father, that's undeniable. If anyone should be called, it should be Mo Bai!"

"Mo Bai, are you trying to turn me black? You have no taste at all when it comes to naming me. I'll just stick to Liang Gong Bai."

"If Mo Bai won't work, then let's go with Mo Xiaobai. It's simple, catchy, and friendly."

"Do you take me for a pet dog, treating me like this?"

"It's settled then, son. You'll be called Mo Xiaobai."

"Who wants to call me Mo Xiaobai, you bastard dad!"

Amidst their banter, which resembled a stand-up comedy routine, the two arrived before the crazed god. The woman finally stopped crushing the world and devouring it like candy, and instead stared at Mo Mo and Mo Xiaobai with eyes filled with chaos and desire.

"Disgusting, Dad, did you give birth to me just to feed me to this monster?"

This time, Mo Mo didn't argue with Mo Xiaobai. Instead, she knelt down and gently hugged her son, saying, "I'm sorry, child, I'm incompetent. I'm so, so sorry, I don't deserve it..."

"Dad, I love you too."

Mo Xiaobai covered Mo Mo's mouth, his bright smile returning, and said, "Alright, Dad, what time is it for you to be so wishy-washy? Do you want to just die without any resistance? I won't! I'm a man, I'm a man who will protect Mom!"

"A five-year-old brat, calling himself a man!"

Mo Mo patted Mo Xiaobai's head, stood next to him, and laughed, "Come on, let's fight?"

"Hehe, behold my strongest attack, the Quantum Cannon!"

It was called a quantum cannon, but it was nothing more than a ball of quantum light hurled at the slowly approaching mad god. Although Mo Xiaobai was Mo Mo's son, he wasn't even a Heroic Spirit, and at only five years old, how could he possibly possess any real offensive capabilities?

Moreover, all means of attack are useless; all the power in the entire anime world belongs to the Mad Goddess before her, and nothing can escape her power and control.

Complementing Mo Xiaobai was Mo Mo's endless quantum light. He mobilized almost all the quantum light he could in an instant, forming his strongest motivation.

"Let's just pick a name and call it the Ultimate Killing Sword!"

"What a tacky name."

"Shut up!"

The father and son attacked the Mad God simultaneously, but with a gentle tap from the woman, everything turned to dust once more. Mo Mo and Mo Xiaobai were transformed into two wisps of supreme divine power, which the woman hastily swallowed into her mouth.

With the last two units of power replenished, the confusion in the woman's eyes gradually dissipated, and the overwhelming hunger also disappeared.

A hint of confusion appeared in her eyes. She looked down at her hands and asked, "Who am I...where am I...what am I supposed to do?"

119 The Last Light

"what!"

Gaia stretched, sat up, and rubbed her eyes. She was immediately startled by her surroundings: countless girls were lying asleep in the square of the Ruby Palace. Was this some kind of cult ritual?

She wasn't the only one who woke up. Gaia acted like an alarm clock, and one by one, the girls woke up. They looked at each other, seemingly wondering what had happened.

"We... attacked the Jade Palace as a group, and the attack was easily successful. Then... then what happened?"

Asuna tilted her head, then was startled by the tears on her face.

"It seems something happened, or perhaps we've forgotten something... Oh well! Anyway, we've all won, so let's all go and have some fun!"

Argo said this, and then she was looked down upon by all the girls. Unfortunately, Argo was completely oblivious to being looked down upon, and even felt quite good about herself.

"Therefore, this is definitely the biggest paranormal event ever! There must be people from the future, people from another world, aliens, or superpowered individuals behind this!"

Haruhi Suzumiya rushed over excitedly, though she herself was completely bewildered, not understanding why she was weak or why she was crying. However, faced with her boundless curiosity, all doubts were nothing but paper tigers. She had already prepared an SOS banner and was waiting to recruit more members.

"So who are you? Are you implying that you look down on people with superpowers?"

Misaka Mikoto, her forehead crackling with electricity, glared menacingly at the stranger, Suzumiya Haruhi. However, Suzumiya Haruhi, her eyes gleaming as she looked at the electricity on Misaka Mikoto's forehead, exclaimed, "You're a psychic!"

"nonsense!"

Misaka Mikoto pointed behind her to the 20,000 sisters who were gathering, and said, "We sisters are all espers!"

"that……"

A weak voice rang out, and everyone looked at Best, who looked confused and even a little frightened. Best lifted her clothes in bewilderment and said, "Can anyone tell me why my belly has gotten so big?"

"Eeeeeeeeeee!"

Countless girls screamed in unison, piercing the sky and shaking the ground.

Huh, why is the ground trembling?

How could the ground possibly shake!

However, the ground... no, the entire Aincrad was shaking!

The violent tremors caused all the girls' faces to change drastically. Some of them ran to the edge and saw that this was not just a tremor, but the entire Aincrad was falling!

"Isn't Aincrad a floating city? Why is it crashing?!"

"More importantly, can someone tell me why I'm here? I remember I was clearly slaying the Kabane, and also, how come I'm not a Kabane anymore?!"

"Stop arguing, the problem now is how everyone can save their lives!"

Amidst the gasps and chaos, the only one who remained calm was probably Nagato Yuki. As for Mikuru, she had already had her memories erased, and now she was the only one left who knew the truth.

"It's over..."

Nagato Yuki muttered to herself, "Only when the gods are fully awakened will the power of Valhalla be drained away. Only with the death of Momo will the quantum light disappear completely because it has lost its master, and only then will the entire Aincrad fall because it has lost its power."

"This is a good thing, so why do I feel so heartbroken? This is human emotion, isn't it? When did I come to understand human emotions?"

"But... it doesn't matter anymore, it's all over."

"When the gods of the second dimension truly awaken, most worlds will not be destroyed. There will be no more administrators or transcendent beings, and these girls in front of us will go their separate ways."

"It's all... really over."

Nagato Yuki's gaze swept over all the girls, her emotions settling into a calm. She would probably become the original Nagato Yuki again, continuing to stay by Suzumiya Haruhi's side. But Suzumiya Haruhi no longer possessed divine power, nor was she the girl who created miracles. What reason would she have to stay by her side then?

If it's because of feelings... would they agree?

Ah... I actually used those terms to refer to the Information Integration Thought Entity. Have I already considered myself not as one of them?

"Hello, hello, you seem very knowledgeable. Can I ask you something?"

A girl's voice interrupted Nagato Yuki's thoughts. When she turned around, she saw it was Gaia. However, the girl's past as Gaia was now completely meaningless; she was just an ordinary girl now.

"I'll do my best to answer your questions. Is there anything wrong?"

"Oh, that's great!"

A bright smile appeared in Gaia's azure eyes, and then she took a bracelet off her wrist. The bracelet had only one pure white bead, which seemed to shimmer with a crystalline white light.

"Could you help me figure out what this is? I don't really understand it. I have no idea why it's on me. Ah, I'm so worried about it. Thank you."

Nagato Yuki silently accepted the bracelet, gazing at the pearl-like decorations. However, she knew these were definitely not pearls. But they didn't seem particularly special either; perhaps they were some kind of rare gemstone?

"scanning."

Nagato Yuki used her powers to scan the small white bead, and in an instant, a vast amount of familiar information appeared before her eyes. Her eyes widened abruptly, and a stormy sea surged within them, her usually calm gaze now filled with intense emotion.

She quickly looked at Gaia, but Gaia still had that adorable, clueless look on her face.

"Is this... your backup plan?"

"What did you say? I don't understand!"

It's okay if you don't understand, as long as I do!

Yuki Nagato started running, running at breakneck speed. Amidst the gasps of all the girls, she leaped over the railing, over the hundredth floor of Aincrad, and then rushed towards the vast ocean, towards this world created by Momo.

This is the afterlife, this is Momo's world. Momo's quantum light is synchronized with this world; Momo is the quantum light, the quantum light is this world, and this world is Momo.

Every ray of light is Momo!

The reason why Nagato Yuki knew all this was because after confirming her relationship with Haruhi Suzumiya, Momo had already told all her secrets to the three girls of the SOS Brigade.

Momo was originally dead, because God devoured Momo's power, devoured all the quantum light, devoured the will and spirit belonging to Momo within the quantum light, and even the power of Valhalla disappeared. However, things that had already been transformed from quantum light were not devoured; they were already physical objects.

But these physical objects can be transformed into light again; these quantum lights are still Momo!

What's missing now is just a spark, a tiny ignition.

And that spark was in Nagato Yuki's hands!

These sparks are something Gaia preserved, probably something she preserved while she still had power!

Nagato Yuki reached the surface of the sea, her entire waist submerged in the water. She held the small bead in her hands, slowly immersing them as well. The seawater gradually submerged the bead in Nagato Yuki's hands.

With a "crack," the bead shattered.
