1693 The Last Dance. I

With a single traded glance between them, their expressions, once marred by desperation and fear, hardened into a resolve as strong as the foundations of the universe!

In that instant, they acknowledged a truth they had hoped to avoid: there was no escape, no turning back from the precipice upon which they stood.

The end, if it were to come, would be on their terms!

With a solemn nod to each other, Zeus and Poseidon made their decision.

It was a choice born not of cowardice, but of a last stand against an inescapable fate. Their divine essence, the very core of their being, began to glow with a foreboding light. It was the light of sacrifice, a brilliance that heralded the end of an era.

"We won't allow you to freely take our cores and replace us!"

"Paragon, you have forced our hands!"

Zeus and Poseidon declared, their voices echoing through the dream realm with a gravity that belied the impending catastrophe!

And then, with a divine command that resonated with the power of their untold millennia, Zeus and Poseidon initiated the self-

destruction of both their souls and cores!!!

If even mortals were able to self-implode their souls, the unigins could do more than that as their self-implosion command could impact even their cores!

Not a single unigin in the history of the universe had done this before as there wasn't anything or anyone to force them into this deadly end.

After all, gods could be reborn with new cores later on in the future in case of their death. Why go through the trouble of self-implosion?

But in this case? All the gods realized that if they got caught by Felix and he gunned for their cores, self-implosion was the only way out!

If Hephaestus knew that Felix would be able to ascend again through his core and erase his existence forever, he would have done the same since it would ensure his rebirth with a new core!
