Kaipo stood tall, his presence exuding an overwhelming aura of power and authority. Novachro and Damasin knelt before him, their faces reflecting a mix of fear, resignation, and a grim understanding of their defeat.
"Do you have any last words?" Kaipo's voice was calm, almost gentle, as he looked down at the brothers. The omnipresent glow of the Pure Heart surrounded him, casting an ethereal light over the battlefield.
Novachro struggled with his emotions. He had never imagined that they would be brought so low, that he and Damasin would be completely powerless against someone like Kaipo. It was a bitter pill to swallow, knowing that Kaipo had merely been toying with them, displaying his power rather than unleashing it fully. The realization struck Novachro that Kaipo could have ended this fight whenever he wanted, and he had chosen to do so now.
"This is exactly how Joker felt," Kaipo said, his voice cutting through Novachro’s thoughts like a blade. Novachro’s eyes widened slightly, surprised that Kaipo had known what he was thinking.
Kaipo smirked. "Uchū no Keiji—it allows me to know all things."
The weight of Kaipo's words hung in the air as he continued, "The Pure Heart is the pinnacle of power, a balance of creation and destruction. But I will use it for creation, to bring life back to what was lost during this war. I will revive all who died, and I will be the balance between Solara and the Land of Spade."
Kaipo’s voice grew softer, but no less resolute. "Eventually, I want both sides to work together, to understand that we are not so different. But first, I will seal myself in the middle portal between our sides and universes, until the time is right for my return."
Damasin, his voice laced with skepticism, interrupted. "How is your plan smart if you’re going to revive everyone, including the evil ones?"
Kaipo met Damasin’s gaze, unwavering. "I will place the right people in power to lead both sides, ensuring that evil does not prevail. But understand this—evil will always exist, even in a world full of good people. It’s not about eradicating evil; it’s about ensuring that good is strong enough to keep it in check."
Kaipo’s words hung in the air, deep and reflective, as if they carried the weight of countless ages of wisdom. "Evil is born out of fear, out of desire, out of a need for power and control. It exists within every heart, just as good does. We cannot rid the world of evil entirely, but we can create a world where good prevails, where compassion, understanding, and unity are the driving forces. The struggle between good and evil is eternal, but it’s within that struggle that we find our purpose, our growth, and our reason for being. Without darkness, there can be no light. Without challenges, there can be no progress."
Kaipo paused, his gaze shifting to Novachro and Damasin. "But you three—Novachro, Damasin, and Novelius—will not be revived. You will be sealed alongside me, to watch the world I entrust to the new generation. You will see the peace I bring, the world I help shape, and you will understand that power alone is not what defines greatness."
Damasin’s expression turned grim, understanding the finality of Kaipo’s words. Novachro remained silent, a sense of resignation settling over him. He knew that their time had come to an end.
Kaipo raised his hands, the Pure Heart within him glowing brighter than ever before. "Zen'uchū no Daisaigai."
With those words, Kaipo unleashed the full power of his Essence Manifest, the Pure Heart. A cataclysmic surge of energy erupted from Kaipo, engulfing the entire omniverse in a brilliant explosion of light, energy, and cosmic force. The omniverse itself trembled under the weight of Kaipo’s power as realities were destroyed and recreated, reshaped into a new order.
The explosion of light was blinding, encompassing everything in its radiant embrace. All the lives lost through all wars were revived, their souls restored to their rightful places in the newly forged reality. The landscape was reshaped, a testament to Kaipo’s absolute dominion over creation and destruction.
As the light faded, Kaipo stood at the center of it all, now sealed in the middle portal between Solara and the Land of Spade. Novachro, Damasin, and Novelius were sealed alongside him, powerless to stop the new world from unfolding. The final chapter of their saga had come to an end.
Kaipo took one last look at the world he had reshaped, a world where peace could finally flourish. His mission was complete. The weight of years, of battles fought and lives lost, lifted from his shoulders as he achieved his goal.
And with that, the final chapter of this serialization came to an end. Peace had been achieved, and a new era was set to begin—a world born from the struggles of the past, now entrusted to a new generation to build and protect.

Dear Readers,
Thank you for joining me on this incredible journey with Kaipo as he sought to claim the Pure Heart. It’s been quite the adventure—full of challenges, battles, and moments of triumph—but he finally did it! From Realm of the Nine: The Spade Odyssey to The Land of Spade Books 1-7, writing this epic story has been a deeply rewarding experience, and I hope it has touched you in some meaningful way.
I seriously considered continuing the saga with Book 8, but I believe this is the right place to bring the story to a close. For now, the tale of Kaipo and the Pure Heart is complete. However, who knows what the future holds? I might one day feel inspired to continue the story with the next generation, and if that happens, you’ll be the first to know.
For now, I’m taking a little break to recharge and start planning my next big project. This time, I’m aiming to keep it all in one epic book rather than splitting it into a series. I’m excited for what’s to come, and I hope you’ll join me for the next adventure.
Thank you so much for your support and for being part of this journey. There’s more to come—stay tuned!
