But it seemingly has no effect, you seeing the God of Destruction's eyes widen in surprise. “Forgive me, you seem to have gotten the wrong idea. None of this battle was about you, Destroyer of Universe 7. I hadn't meant to get you involved. Please, allow me to give you a gift. To compensate you for your trouble.”
Then, with a wave of his hand Mechikabura seemingly dispels the Hakai. And as he reaches into his robes with his right hand you see Beerus' shock, a hint of worry in his eyes. With his strongest attack not even phasing the Demon God, he's clearly terrified, yet trying to put on a brave face. Which shatters as Mechikabura withdraws a golden bottle, jaw dropping in shock. You feel your own drop as well, feeling powerful divine energy radiating from it.
“Hold on. How did you....?” he says, too shocked to move as Mechikabura takes his and places the golden bottle brimming with divinity in it. Only then does Beerus snap out of his shock, gaze raising up to meet Mechikabura's. “Where in the world did you get <span class="mu-i">this</span>!?”
“From Chronoa's private collection. Turns out the Time Kai, well. FORMER Time Kai anyways, had quite the collection of valuables stored away in the Time Nest.” Mechikabura replies casually, watching as the Destroyer carefully opens the bottle with a claw tip. “Seems she was behind several different important items disappearing from history. But her time is over.”
“I doubt you could have truly bested her. With the powers of Time, there's no...Way...” Beerus says, voice trailing off as Mechikabura pulls something else from inside his robes. And comparing the bottle of divine magic to this, that bottle was like a lighter. And whatever he's drawing forth is like holding a star. “Impossible.”
“What <span class="mu-i">is</span> that?” you exclaim as he opens his hand, a bonfire unlike anything you've ever seen before blazing to life. It looks as if he's holding a raging flame, one whose divine power dwarfs Lord Beerus' own! Just what in the world and all of time is going on here?!
“The Soul of Time. You really did it. Well, I must say I'm impressed.” Beerus says after a moment staring at the soul. “To think that, even with all her power, the power of Time itself, there was someone greater still.”
“It wasn't difficult. After all, while this power may have been hers, doesn't it feel... <span class="mu-i">Off</span> to you?” Mechikabura asks him. And, suddenly, you realize where he's going with this. Your eyes widen even further in horror as, looking to the burning fire, suddenly understanding what he means. As it isn't ONE flame. But many.
