He killed his father, his people, and gave up everything so he could take everything from everyone else. Soon he began to see life as pointless and decided to take it from everyone else. Bleck searched and searched but could not find her. Count Bleck's motivation for this all is because his father got rid of the woman he loves. ![]() Everyone is completely removed from existence. And everyone in that world does not end up in heaven or hell. When shown what will happen if the void does consume everything, all that is left is.nothing. Mario, joined by Peach, Bowser, and a new group of friends, must travel through eight worlds in search of Pure Hearts. His plan is nothing short of complete oblivion of every reality.
