That belongs to Leme, I mean, she said it herself, she is the last heroine.

Kazuki could feature in though(the cover I mean).

[DragonOsman]

Kazuki on the last cover is too long a wait. At least Yuu in Unlimited Fafnir has been on the cover at least once. Same with Ise in DxD - though that's actually saying something, if you know what I mean.

[OmegaWeaponZ]

^ Well, if it makes you feel a bit better, Kazuki has been on the cover since the first volume, if in presence only, due to his sword.

That aside, after playing a certain boss battle in FFXV, I get the feeling the final fight of Magika would go something like:
- War ends, Kazuki and co. barely win
- They chose to not change the world, making Basilleon angry.
- He attempts to reset the world(or perhaps destroying enough of humanity to effectivey put man back into the stone age).
- Kazuki and co. don't share his sentiment, ensuing in a fight.
- Kazuki and co. get beat down.(Maybe due to other divas or similar beings to them)
- Unexpected help from the other surviving kings.
- Still ineffective.
- Arthuria/Bea gets the idea to give their authority to Kazuki to boost him in strength by pleading loyalty to the victor of Ragnorok.
- The other kings follow suit and do the same.
- Their position improves, although a still a bit disadvantageous.
- Kazuki unlocks his original one (unsure of what its strength will be like)
- Kazuki manages to beat Basilleon.
- Unconsciously wishing that the divas remain, they become corporeal, albeit losing a lot of their power. (But allows Leme to ...)

- . . .

- Profit Empire of Kazuki/New UN established.

Then again, this is if the author intends to end the story soon. If he decides to expand the story after the war(which I hope he does), we may have other players involved (via the 3 ancient religions).

In Volume 12 Chapter 1, BB claims that as the manager, he's not allowed to fight the kings. If he's telling the truth, he might use some kind of loophole to oppose Kazuki. Maybe he'll try possessing Kazuki in order to override his wish, assuming possession doesn't count as fighting.

- Empire of Kazuki/New UN established to remember his heroic act.

That probably will happen. But there's also the chance for a Kazuki (or maybe Kazuki and Co. together) vs. Basileus Basileon battle after the Ragnarok War.

@Omega: I know that Kazuki's always been on the covers in spirit through his sword. Didn't I already say before that I'm tired of having to make myself believe that, though?

But about the ending. Even if the series doesn't that soon, Basileus Basileon could still be the endgame boss.

Yes, I agree with you. Like true battle in the end and happy ending

I think BB is only untouchable during Ragnarok, not so sure if that will still be the case once the victor emerge.
Kazuki will most likely challenge BB regardless though

[DragonOsman]

I hope Kazuki doesn't try to break the rules. He should wait until after the Ragnarok War to challenge Basileus Basileon (yes, I think it's already pretty much a foregone conclusion that that fight will happen).

[Windsgrace]

^ That or it will end w/ him charging into battle w/ a possible sequel. A cliff hanger ending or a series.

I also have a theory on why there is a decline in magical power after a certain age. BB mentioned magical power was always there but people forgot it. The power of wonder and imagination. (sounds a bit...) Could it simply be that after the brain fully matures (early to mid 20s) wonder declines thus the loss of magical power.

[Ultragunner]

^ yeah, that can totally be the case. Just look at all the old politicians, they care more about themselves than Divas and magic

[Windsgrace]

Then again an adult that behaves and acts like a child is a bit...troubling and possibly disturbing.

[DragonOsman]

^True. But maybe there's a way to be both mature in heart, body and mind, and also still have the imagination needed to be a good magician at an older age. If that can be achieved, it'd probably be possible to keep the magic in the people from declining. Hopefully.

[Windsgrace]

^ I think in that aspect Kazuki fits the bill for a lack of a better phrase. I mean the girls around him made it so he could literally give everyone love and be playful. All while being mature in heart body and mind. He can revert back to a playful character at any time to fulfill the needs of his partners. Even if he grows older I doubt that will change.

[DragonOsman]

But he's just one person. Unless the rest of the human race in this series can be like that, the problem of magic power decline after the age of 20 will still be there.

[OmegaWeaponZ]

Again, all of the above concerns people who spent most/a good portion of their lives outside the New Age of Magic, and by BBs words, you could read it as all people, both young and old, used to be able to bend Magic. So it would kinda be like the younger kids/those born after the return if magic could have been affected by it much more severely than those not and thus could use magic for a longer period. Another fact pointing to this, is that it was mentioned (by Liz) that this generation of Magic Knights were much, much stronger than the last. Logically, it should also take longer for the decline in power to take place, if at all. Lastly, while not all, aren't a good portion of the currently active Knights in their twenties(if you consider that they only join at the age of around 18)?

Edit: @ ^: Remember, whole continents are surrounded by Magic clouds, I doubt that is only the result of the young. Remember, all are connected subconsciously to the human hive mind(Astral), so its not like the elderly have 0% impact on it(especially if you consider the pride of some of the older generation)

[DragonOsman]

Yeah, that's all true. But the magic power of the older generation has already declined. They probably have just enough magic to help with those "clouds" you mentioned. It's not like they can cast high-level spells like the younger generation can. It's why their Divas left them to look for people with stronger magic.

But yeah, magicians do actually join the Knight Order at 18 or so. That seems weird if magic starts to decline starting from the age of 20. It wouldn't make much sense unless there's now a way to keep magic from declining in people. But the problem there is that the people shouldn't yet know that there's a way.
