David reports that Nightwielder is down and Firefight is out of action. Tia wants them to abort the mission but Prof, who has been growing more irrational over the course of the battle, refuses. David reaches the field and sees Prof dodging constant energy blasts from Steelheart, and returning ineffective fire. David sees a soldier get the drop on Cody and tries to stop him but is too late as Cody is badly injured with several bullet wounds. Abraham carries Cody to their escape chopper, and tells David to leave but he still wants to try shooting Steelheart. David eludes several officers who were chasing him, and tracks down Steelheart and fires three bullets from his father's gun from close range at the Epic.
 
SteelHeart dies of cancer
=== Chapter 40 ===
 
The bullets bounce off Steelheart, who sends a blast at David but misses. Steelheart walks up to David and recognizes him from the bank. Prof tackles Steelheart from behind, but Steelheart fights him off, and crushes his skull with two punches, leaving him apparently dead. David tells Tia to flee and that Prof was dead and that he cannot escape. Steelheart tells Enforcement to leave David for him. The sun starts to rise, without Nightwielder to keep it at bay with darkness. Steelheart approaches David, who has a sudden revelation, and raises his gun and points it at Steelheart, but Steelheart crushes his hand and takes the gun away to point it at David. David whispers to Steelheart that his father didn't fear him, and that is his weakness. Steelheart pulls the trigger, and the gun sets off the explosives because David jammed his pen detonator into the barrel. Steelheart is consumed by the ensuing explosion, since it was caused by himself, someone who didn't fear him.
