Great job, Mayuri and Nemu, you've finally killed Pernida. Of course, now Yhwach will get a massive power boost, but great job. Now that I think about it, I think I understand why Yhwach didn't absorb Pernida even though it's a piece of the Soul King. He said earlier that he wasn't at full power so he probably couldn't do it so instead he made it into a Quincy/Elite Sternritter so that if/when it died, it would return to him anyway and he would also get a boost from the power Pernida accumulated over it's time as a Sternritter plus Yhwach would get back the power boost he gave when he used Auswahlen on Pernida.
