Asura's Wrath Wiki

Nirvana is the 4th and final part of Asura's Wrath. It was released as a DLC and contains the true ending of the story of Asura's Wrath.

Story

The Golden Spider reveals himself to be Chakravartin, and refers to Asura as the "Redeemer". Chakravartin states that he himself unleashed the Gohma to test the inhabitants of Gaea, in the hope of finding a successor and ending his need to watch over Gaea. Asura attacks Chakravartin only to find himself outmatched, even while in Mantra form. Asura unleashes his Wrath form in hopes of saving an imprisoned Mithra, but to prevent his destruction, she sends him falling down to Gaea along with Yasha. Chakravartin proclaims the world a failure and prepares to cleanse and remake it once more, which will kill the surviving demigods and humans. He seizes the Karma Fortress for the cleansing, causing it to crash down to Gaea. Awakening on the surface, Yasha realizes that the still-unconscious Asura is the only one who can save the world. Yasha defends him from Gohma summoned by Chakravartin, then installs the Mantra Reactor from the Karma Fortress into Asura. The reactor will prevent Asura from destroying himself in the final battle, and can augment his powers to stand against Chakravartin. Yasha removes his own core to revive Asura, and prepares to battle him as a catalyst for Asura's new potential.

Asura wakes up to find Yasha eager to battle. Though confused, Asura accepts. His new Mantra core activates during the fight, causing him to critically injure Yasha. As Asura prepares to land the final blow, he realizes what Yasha has done for him and stops the fight. Yasha is already beyond help, and dies with a smile on his face. Before departing, Asura admits he had always considered Yasha as a brother rather than an enemy.

Preparing for his final confrontation, Asura meditates and sees visions of the other Deities and Durga, reminding him of his purpose. He heads into space to confront Chakravartin. Chakravartin fires the doomsday blast at Gaea, but Asura transforms into a godly form called Asura the Destructor and deflects it. Asura engages Chakravartin, who again requests that Asura become the new god of the planet only to be rejected once again. The very fabric of time and space begins to come apart as they duel for the fate of Creation. Chakravartin is eventually pressed into his final form, Chakravartin The Creator, but is brought to his knees by Asura's sheer force of will and wrath. As Asura prepares to kill Chakravartin, Mithra breaks free and urges him to stop. Mithra states that if Chakravartin is killed, all Mantra will cease to exist. This will render all of Shinkoku's technology and the powers of the demigods useless, including those keeping Asura alive. Asura chooses to destroy Chakravartin nonetheless, resigned to his fate and happy to die so long as Mithra can live free from danger. As the landscape around him collapses, Asura shares his final words with Mithra and vanishes, free of his wrath.

Mithra is sent back to Gaea, where she integrates with the surviving humans. She spends many years recounting the tales of her father to the flourishing mortal children on Gaea before presumably passing away peacefully of old age.

In the epilogue, hundreds of millions of years pass and a more modern Gaea emerges. The cycle of reincarnation is shown to have continued, with all the demigods, including Asura, having been reincarnated as humans after Chakravartin's demise. Asura blissfully spends time with his reincarnated family. Suddenly, a giant meteor appears in the sky. Feeling a strangely familiar urge to defend the helpless, Asura stands prepared for battle.
