Transwarp Bridge, Mount Vesuvius.

It was a disaster for the heroes shortly after Rosso and Conrad slain the Khan Maykr - the control panel that was used to input access code was destroyed by the sinister Khan Maykr.

Rosso: I'll stay behind and destroy the Kyber Keys myself.

And now, everyone was all taken aback by Rosso's most unthinkable decision... It left his friends and his uncle dismayed when Rosso made such a choice.

Rias: Rosso, what are you saying?

Rosso: I'm going to destroy the Kyber Keys myself and prevent Davoth from coming to Earth.

Haruto: What? No!

Jeanne and Mio overheard from afar in the middle of the battle, and were distraught that the Son of Dante made a decision. Even Xenovia, who arrived at the bridge after helping the Assault Team, left in dismay at Rosso's decision.

Jeanne: Rosso, no! We can't leave you!

Mio: Are you serious!? That's suicide!

Issei: There's gotta be another way.

Rosso: *shook* No, there is no other way. If Davoth comes to this planet, everything we fought for will be lost. Xenovia...

Xenovia: Yes?

Rosso tossed the purified Excalibur Mimic to his girlfriend, and the Durandal Wielder caught that item in time. She directed her saddened glance at Rosso, knowing he wouldn't be able to escape if he destroyed the key.

Xenovia: Rosso... you...

Rosso: Give this to Irina when you visit her...

After wiping out as many beasts as they could, Matthew and his troops also overheard Rosso making a noble sacrifice to stop the portal.

Matthew: Your sacrifice becomes our oath.

Rosso: My friends... Thank you...

He looked at his surroundings, his friends and allies stood by his side and were left dismayed at his choice.

Conrad: You sure you won't let everyone stay with you?

Geats: If you do this alone, kid. You know there's no turning back.

Rosso: I'm sure of it. I'm doing this for all of us. Now go! Get everyone out of the bridge as far away as possible!

At the battlefield where the Stellaron Hunters fought the minions - Van took a glimpse at the group on the bridge. He had a feeling their role was over for now since the Khan Maykr was dead for good.

Van: Well, looks like the party is over. Let's go, guys. Seems like Eilo is satisfied no one interferes with his script anymore. We've got work to do.

Kafka: But what about Wolfie?

It left Kafka slightly worried about their teammate Silver Wolf, who stood by Haruto's side. Even Bronya was a bit confused at seeing Wolf who looked just like her.

Van: Don't worry, she'll catch up with us once we escape from this place.

Blade: He's right. She has a teleporter on his ship, we'll wait for her until she comes back.

Kafka had no room for argument and nodded reluctantly at Van. Kin watched the three Stellaron Hunters leave the scene, making a head start.

Kin: *deadpanned* Aaaand there they go again... Always getting away, in the end...

Ratchet: There's no time for spacing out, Kin! We have to get out of the bridge as far away as possible!

Viola: I agree with your feline friend, Raptor Boy! We gotta hightail outta here!
