---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Safi'jiiva, the red dragon and Overseer of this sector of reality. With this burning rage and anger upon being shown to be inferior to Scarlet Godzilla, Safi'jiiva roars loud enough to echo across the entire condensed solar system and beyond. The very foundation of the already Meta-ridden vacuum of space breaks down so much that the separation between dimensions breaks down entirely, flooding the solar system with the multi-coloured energies and formations of the Meta. This breakdown of the barriers is so great that Godzilla is forced to bring up her arms to guard against the overflowing tides of Meta-Mana washing all over and around herself and the planetary bodies nearby.

In an instant, the entire condensed solar system has essentially become a sector of the Meta; reality itself has been consumed and merged with this dimension for several light-years out past the solar system's edges. At the centre of it all is the Overseer whose body starts to glow bright white through the scales and membranes of his wings, eyes, and underside; his wounds also immediately heal back all damage he's sustained. Although he's still filled with hateful rage, he has composed himself and stares down Scarlet Godzilla with the same determination and focus that she herself is often noted for.


"This sector of reality is broken. In my rage and hate at my failings as a true god, I have broken the separation of Meta and reality entirely."

"All of reality has been consumed for light-years around, meaning we are essentially inside of the Meta itself, albeit a much more dangerous and unstable plane than normal."

"But for you, it is worth it. Through this hateful rage, I have brought out the full potential I possess by drawing deep from the corrupted seeds of life I absorbed during my first emergence."

"I had hoped to try to purify them later with the souls of Humanity upon driving them extinct, but your ascendance has necessitated extreme measures."


Safi'jiiva spreads his wings out wide and channels the full extent of his absorbed energy, lighting up his wing membranes with constellation-patterned white lights permanently.

He has fully entered Super-Critical state.


"WITNESS ME!!!"


Super-Critical Safi'jiiva flaps his wings a single time, sending out a huge rush of Sapphire Fire Waves that wash all over Scarlet Godzilla's body. Despite her immensely increased resistances, she can still feel the immense energy output and force of this attack; the force is enough to completely melt away Venus and parts of Neptune and Uranus despite them being behind the young Godzillasaur.

Before she can properly retaliate, Safi'jiiva launches a breath attack similar to his Sapphire Fire Waves directly at Godzilla, prompting her to bring up her arms to block the attack. This breath weapon doesn't carry as much damage potential as the Overseer's Deep Star Fire, but its concussive force is great enough that the monster planet can't let down her guard for even a moment to mount a counterattack. Eventually, Super-Critical Safi'jiiva lets up on this pressure manoeuvre to unleash the attack's truly devastating potential:

The Sapphire of the Emperor.

From his mouth, the red dragon releases a tiny glowing ball of bright bluish-white energy that moves toward Scarlet Godzilla at a relatively slow velocity compared to other attacks; it seems harmless by comparison to these huge flashy moves. However, Godzilla isn't fooled by its nonthreatening appearance and immediately tries to fly backwards to evade the tiny orb.

Unfortunately, her haste in backing up results in her accidentally stumbling into Jupiter. With nowhere to run and the Sapphire of the Emperor quickly approaching, she makes the rash decision to fire off a Spiral Supernova Breath at the orb of pure energy in order to detonate it early. Upon hitting the sapphire orb, the tiny orb explodes into a massive burst of bluish-white flames that completely consumes the entirety of the condensed solar system along with Scarlet Godzilla herself.

It takes several seconds for the seething hot energy to die down.

Once it does, the aftermath is truly spectacular in how complete and total the destruction. Every planetary body within sight has either been vaporized outright or left in pieces barely more than a few kilometres at their largest. The only things still intact are the sun, which has expanded into a red giant star; and the Earth, which is still covered in a layer of darkness. Even Scarlet Godzilla herself is floating in place and left barely conscious with portions of her body vaporized, including some dorsal plates and most of her left arm. Despite being so heavily injured, the moment she sees that Super-Critical Safi'jiiva is on approach, she immediately snaps out of her stupor and starts focusing her energies on her damaged centres to start regenerating them quickly.

It takes several seconds, but she manages to grow back everything.


"You've survived even the Sapphire of the Emperor, and are back to fighting condition. You'll be a Metarch to remember in the ages to come once I kill you and devour your soul to kick-start the revolution."


Safi'jiiva flies towards Godzilla at high speed, prompting her to match him with a similar charge. The 2 Metarchs clash once again like they did when they first began this fight, and just like last time they are equally matched in sheer power even in their equivalent ascendant states. The mere act of them locking hands and attempting to overpower one another sends out aftermath waves that ripple out and bend the fabric of the Meta around them; were it not for the simple lack of fragile planetary bodies, most of the condensed solar system would be destroyed by these waves.

When simple strength proves insufficient, Godzilla and Safi'jiiva resort to empowering their grips with Dragonfire Pulses and Sapphire Palm Fire, respectively. This clash of intense orange and blue energies is enough to explode outwards, sending both planet-sized true gods flying away from each other with the level of force emitted from the epicentre. This brief lull doesn't last long, however, as both of them fly at one another yet again. This time, Scarlet Godzilla manages to put both of her hands around the jaws of Super-Critical Safi'jiiva, keeping them shut and preventing him from speaking or firing breath attacks. The red dragon continues to struggle against this hold with his arms and legs, prompting the monster planet to fly to the red giant sun and slam his head across its surface.

After several seconds of scraping, Godzilla releases one of her hands on Safi'jiiva's jaws and attempts to claw down him; he counters by kicking up with both of his hind-legs, throwing her off of him. Before she fully gets back up to her feet, the Overseer sweeps both his hands upwards one after another, resulting in large waves of reddish cold plasma splashing out from the surface of the red giant star both Metarchs stand on with each sweep. The young ruler of all monsters turns her back on the plasma waves, allowing them to batter her back.

Godzilla then fires off a Spiral Supernova Barrage out from her back, cutting through the plasma waves. The Overseer is forced to duck down low to the surface on all fours to avoid the attack, but he takes this opportunity to pounce like an ambushing big cat directly onto his opponent's back. He manages to push her down to the solar surface, but she quickly bucks him off and turns around to face him once more. Safi'jiiva then empowers his hand with Sapphire Palm Fire to slam down on the solar surface, but before his hand can reach, Godzilla lets loose a quick Super Oscillatory Wave at it that nullifies the energy flow and makes him recoil his hand away.

Both Metarchs stare each other down for a moment before then deciding to fire their breath attacks at each other.

Scarlet Godzilla fires off a Spiral Supernova Breath while Super-Critical Safi'jiiva unleashes his Piercing Sapphire Fire. The orange and blue beams collide, creating a bright focal point that shines brighter than even the red giant they stand upon. Yet again, both Metarchs are equally matched in will and strength, resulting in a beam struggle with no clear advantaged user. Just like when they locked hands moments ago, the epicentre of this struggle explodes outwards, engulfing both of them in a flash of blinding light.

When the light dies down, both true gods have been knocked down but are otherwise undamaged.

As they get back up, they stare each other down for a moment before roaring at one another to assert dominance.

This battle of gods isn't even close to over yet.
