I mean, the whole premise of EP7 is that it's a fake world and not a real kakera. It's a fantasy world where Lion has golden hair, a perfect life, no character flaws, a perfectly androgynous appearance and an out-of-nowhere personal philosophy about how gender doesn't matter.

The world itself has Shannon and Kanon as servants (who shouldn't exist if Lion is there), real golden roses exist, nobody bats an eye at a complete stranger who just came into the chapel in their private island, George is a perfect, confident gentleman (even though he only became like this thanks to his relationship with Shannon, who doesn't exist in this world).

The events that take place at the end are also a bit nonsensical. Especially the part about Rudolf and Kyrie killing everybody for... either a billion yet credit card that doesn't exist without Yasu, or ten tons of gold that will be buried in the explosion. And they do this relying on a bomb they don't know exists because Yasu wasn't there to tell them.

I think this is all hinting at the fact that the world of EP7 is a fantasy as imagined by Yasu.

How come Lion can only exist in this one world where he gets killed by Kyrie? What about other realities where Lion exists and the massacre doesn't happen? The answer is that this world is a fantasy. And Bern is trying to lock up this fantasy in the regular catbox, where every tale always ends with the explosion and everyone dead, no matter what. This is why Lion can't avoid this fate, even though it makes no sense from a multiverse perspective. Because Lion never got the chance to exist IRL, Lion is just an idealized version of Yasu imagined by her. A fantasy. And Bern is heartlessly trying to force this fantasy world into the catbox, which must end with the explosion.

When Will fights Bernkastel and tells Lion to "keep fighting" and "refuse to accept that he was shot", he's trying to keep the fantasy alive, out of the catbox. Lion's world is a fantasy and so is he, so there is no reason for them to be constrained by the rules of the catbox. His world isn't restricted by reality and can go its separate way, having a happy ending where everyone goes back home.
