A/N: Last one, I'm kinda late so let's go!

Victor was fighting another Victor. More correctly tough, Lord Knowledge was fighting Lord Knowledge. Lord Knowledge used his Rings to blast a lightning bolt against Other Lord Knowledge, who blocked with his own Rings and proceeded to throw them towards Lord Knowledge. He threw his, and the two sets of Rings crashed multiple times. Lord Knowledge shot a beam of heat from Incandescence, his Ring powered by a star, while Other Lord Knowledge shoot a disintegrating one from Spectral, which took his power from the emptiness of space. The two beams collided, neither seemingly able to overpower the other, until eventually Other Lord Knowledge turned invisible and ceased his attack. Lord Knowledge knew well what had happened: with the power of Spectral, Other Lord Knowledge had warped the air around himself to become invisible, and he had then used Spin to decelerate time around himself and move at super speed.

Lord Knowledge summoned his spear, aware that he would soon be attacked, and he felt the movement of air behind him: in a split second he turned back and moved his spear to block a hit, and his attacker, still invisible, moved back and went around him to attack him from behind again. Lord Knowledge blocked again, and after a short back and forth of this, he used Remaker, another one of his Rings, to create a barrier of rock around himself. As the barrier began to fall from Other Lord Knowledge's hits, Lord Knowledge summoned energy trough Incandescence and created a shockwave, forcing Other Lord Knowledge to manifest and protect himself by creating a wall of Dark Matter with Nightbringer. He thought about a way to attack again when someone impaled him trough the heart. 

He looked down, surprised: him and Lord Knowledge had cut off each other's omniscience during their duel, so he hadn't seen that coming. He fell to the ground, dead, and the spear was pulled back by none other than Lady Tranquil. Lord Knowledge undid the Dark Matter wall using his own Nightbringer and collected Other Lord Knowledge's Rings and spear. He then held his hand out for Lady Tranquil, who grabbed it, before pulling her into an embrace.

"Thank you, my beautiful wife" he said, quickly kissing her "Your support today was priceless to me"

"What I did for you today is nothing in the face of what I would do for you if you needed me to, my beloved" Lady Tranquil replied, laying against Lord Knowledge's chest.

They remained still for a moment before Lord Knowledge stepped back and cut trough reality to return to their realm. They arrived in a throne room with two thrones, one bigger and blue, and a smaller, silver one at its right. Uriel was sitting on the floor, tinkering with his double-sided spear, but when they arrived, he stood up "Father. Mother." He said. Lady Tranquil felt his tone switch in between his words: he had never truly accepted Lady Tranquil as his new mother, even after her wedding to Lord Knowledge, still attached to the memory of Azura.

"My child" Lord Knowledge said "Perhaps you need me?"

"I have reports on our last invasion" Uriel explained "I have found none of the Oni you reported in the other realm, nor any sign of Unbeing presence. Do you know why that is?"

"But of course" Lord Knowledge said "I'll explain it all to you in a moment. Go to the other room please."

He then turned to Lady Tranquil "Prepare our bedroom, after doing so much work I wish to rest by your side"

"Of course, my beloved" She replied. Lord Knowledge and Uriel left for Lord Knowledge's office, and she walked into their room before closing the door.

"You live a lie" a voice came from the shadows.

"I have no reason to believe you over him" Lady Tranquil coldly stated, unsurprised by the presence of whoever talked to her.

Out of the shadows walked the Lord Knowledge of our universe, whom we'll call Our Lord Knowledge for reading purposes "You have been cut off from your omniscience so well that you fail to realize it. Perhaps I could show you proof then"
