"Heh heh, think it's just a pipe dream? Sure, it's damn near impossible—our world's got one hell of a dragon protecting it. The Great Red."
Tenra's response came flat. "So that's your real target. Great Red."
"Exactly! I want to take down Great Red and see what's out there in other worlds!"
Rizevim shook his head, almost wistful. "Shame about Ophis, though. Cao Cao split you clean in half—basically useless now. That bastard really screwed things up for me. Ah well. Guess I'll have to find another way..."
He let the topic drop, turning his attention to Tenra with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Kid, your power—it's connected to another world too, isn't it? I sensed it before. When that new god's power showed up from the other side... yours felt the same. Same source."
Tenra's tone stayed level. "What's it to you?"
"Ha! Interesting. Listen, kid—you'd better cooperate. Otherwise, things are gonna get very unpleasant for you."
Malice flickered in Rizevim's eyes.
Tenra just smiled. Calm. "You can try."
"..."
Rizevim's snort cut the air. This brat had secrets he wanted—needed—to know. No more games.
His magic surged forward, a crushing wave aimed at Tenra. But before Tenra could even move—
Vali snapped.
White Dragon Emperor wings blazed to life as he shot forward, a streak of cold light slashing toward Rizevim.
The attack dissolved before it even reached him. Just... gone.
"Vali, fall back. You can't beat him—his ability nullifies Sacred Gears." Ophis's warning came sharp and clear. Meant for Vali. Meant for Tenra too.
Sacred Gear nullification, huh...
Tenra's eyes stayed locked on Rizevim floating above. He dismissed the thought of using his Sword-Shield without hesitation.
Instead, his voice came quiet. Almost gentle.
"—Come down."
Reality listened.
Every thread of energy in heaven and earth turned hostile in an instant, crushing down on Rizevim like the weight of the world itself. He slammed into the ground.
Tenra walked forward. Steady. Unhurried.
Sacred Gears were off the table—but that was fine. He had something better now.
Complete mastery over his Transcendent power.
