Towards the Future is the 75th chapter of the "Shuumatsu no Valkyrie: Record of Ragnarok" manga series.
Summary[]

Tesla reactivates the Gematria Zone
The kids in Humanity's crowd encourage Nikola Tesla to keep going, telling him that he can't lose. As both combatants huff, Tesla reactivates the Gematria Zone and heads towards Beelzebub by floating in a zigzag pattern. Heimdall announces that Tesla is back on the attack, despite being torn to pieces.
Extending the Staff of Apomyius, Beelzebub grips it with his left hand and uses Sorath Samekh to block Tesla's Plasma Pulse Punch. After the Lord of the Flies is skidded back, Tesla circles around him before approaching from his right. Tesla punches but Beelzebub ducks under it before attempting to use Sorath Vau.

Tesla tries to confuse Beelzebub using the Tesla Step
However, Tesla zooms back in time and Heimdall says, with the Tesla Step, Tesla dances with such intricate footwork and minimal energy. As he wonders if Beelzebub has been put on the defensive, Adamantine angrily questions why Beelzebub is dragging his feet and not using Chaos again to end this.
Zeus says it's too late for that and then points out to him that Beelzebub's body can no longer bear the strain of Chaos. Adamantine can't believe it and shouts at Beelzebub to finish the job.

Ares, hearing from Hermes that Beelzebub will be able to counter Tesla Warp, thinks he already has victory in hand
Beelzebub proceeds to block Tesla's PPP with Sorath Samekh again but his left hand that he used spurts blood. Ares cheers for Beelzebub to keep at it but then worries about what will happen if Tesla uses Tesla Warp again. Hermes notes that Tesla Warp is a technique that exploits the opponent's gaps. He guesses that Beelzebub, who boasts great battle sense, is already formulating a counter for Tesla Warp after seeing it once.

Hermes explains to Ares that Tesla's chance to win lies in the last remaining coil
Excited that Beelzebub has a way to seal Tesla's trump card, Ares exclaims his victory is almost certain but Hermes is unsure about that. Picking Hermes up, Ares questions what's more likely between Beelzebub winning and losing.
Hermes guesses if there is something that could instigate Beelzebub's defeat, it would be what allowed Tesla to survive Chaos in the first place: the Super Tesla Coil.

Beelzebub uses his vibration blade to cut Tesla's left shoulder
As long as Tesla has that final Super Tesla Coil to play, no-one can determine what will happen next. Beelzebub attacks with Sorath Vau but Tesla circles behind him. Turning back, Beelzebub manages to parry Tesla's PPP with Sorath Vau before using Sorath Samekh to block Tesla's punch. As he gets pushed down, Beelzebub then uses the Staff of Apomyius to push Tesla's right arm away before jabbing the vibration blade of his right hand forward, resulting in Tesla getting his left shoulder cut. Tesla moves back but is then stopped when the heel of his feet get stuck on something. Because Beelzebub's attacks have strewn rubble around and torn huge cracks into the arena, Tesla is unable to use Tesla Step to glide across the ground like before.
In response to this, the Gods jeer at Tesla and cheer on Beelzebub. Tesla guesses he still has room for improvement before pointing out to Beelzebub that his vibrations have become a horrendous burden on his body. If Beelzebub keeps using his attacks like this, Tesla believes he will end up self-destructing. As blood spurts from all over his body, Beelzebub wonders what's wrong with that since he cannot kill Tesla if he doesn't do this.

Lilith's tattoo tries to stop Beelzebub from killing himself
Moving forward, Beelzebub imbues the Staff of Apomyius with his right hand's vibrations, even though it causes damage to himself. Beelzebub thrusts the Staff of Apomyius over and over, and Tesla dodges each strike. As Heimdall says Beelzebub is going for the finish with an onslaught bathed in his own blood, Lilith's tattoo suddenly holds back Beelzebub's right arm. Shocked, Beelzebub pleads for Lilith to not stop him as he's not throwing away his life – he's offering his life. This causes the tattoo to recede.

Beelzebub attacks Tesla with Sorath Tau
As Beelzebub thrusts the staff over and over again, Tesla realizes he's using the vibrations to amplify each other. Beelzebub unleashes Sorath Tau and upon figuring out he can't dodge this, Tesla crosses his arms to protect the last Super Tesla Coil on his chest and takes the large attack head-on, causing the Gematria Zone to vanish again. As Beelzebub stands in a large crater made by his attack, the smoke clears to reveal Tesla's Super Automaton β had been damaged even further, with pieces of it falling on the floor. As Göll shouts for Tesla, a priest in Humanity's crowd exclaims the devil is too strong. Humanity began to believe there was no possibility of Tesla winning. But among the rest, who'd already given up hope, the scientist who was called "Human History's One and Only Sorcerer" looked only towards the future. Tesla happily yells about how that was incredible.

Tesla finds the solution to be able to win the battle
He laughs about how this battle is a treasure trove of creativity and ideation as Beelzebub has taken a single vibration to so many levels, making Tesla admit he had never considered such dynamism. As Beelzebub can only stay silent, Tesla says this fight has born incredible fruit for his research before exclaiming "Quad Erat Demonstrandum!" Humanity is impressed and Galileo Galilei chuckles over how this is Tesla after all. Marie Curie claims he's a fool that's obsessed with his research. Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein agree that as far as Tesla is concerned, it's impossible for the universe to do anything but grow as Alfred Nobel smiles.
Thomas Edison declares that Tesla is the least likely man in history to know what it is to "give up." As the scientists all cheer for him, Dane Tesla is worried while Göll is in awe at Tesla acting like that despite being so beaten up.

Tesla activates the last coil, saying that Humanity evolves in danger and that together, they will conquer the future
Beelzebub stands ready when electricity starts coming out of the Super Tesla Coil on Tesla's chest. Tesla claims, whenever it is pushed to the point of crisis, Humanity has always evolved. The amount of electricity that's generated causes Tesla to be engulfed in a bright light and the kids in Humanity's crowd exclaim that he really is a sorcerer. Energy wraps around Tesla's hands before it's revealed the entirety of Super Automaton β is covered in electricity, with rings of electricity hovering over Tesla's fists, where the previous two Super Tesla Coils were. Tesla tells Humanity they should go towards the future together. Dane admits Tesla really is something amazing as the scientists, Humanity, Göll and Brunhilde cheer him on. The light unleashed by the final Super Tesla Coil was like the light Tesla once used to illuminate the world. Now, once again, he is giving light to Humanity's hearts.
