BOOOOOM!!!!!!!
BOOOOOM!!!!!!!
BOOOOOM!!!!!!!
The battlefield collapsed under the weight of their clash.
Velzahar and Vorgrath collided again—
—and again—
—and again—
Each impact tearing space apart.
BBBBBOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!
A final collision exploded between them—
sending both flying in opposite directions.
---
ROOOOOAR!!!!!
Two roars answered each other.
One of storm.
One of abyss.
Two pillars of power surged forward—
Azure lightning and infernal darkness—
twisting—
colliding—
devouring everything between them.
The ground below—
no longer existed.
Only molten ruin.
---
Then—
Silence.
Both hovered in the air.
Watching.
Waiting.
---
Vorgrath breathed heavily—
but smiled.
Velzahar—
was worse.
Blood covered his body.
Burn marks remained—
refusing to heal.
His breathing—
uneven.
His energy—
drained.
---
They descended slowly.
Feet touched the broken earth.
Thud.
---
"Seems you've reached your limit."
Vorgrath's voice was calm.
Mocking.
"Let me end this… painlessly."
---
Velzahar exhaled sharply.
He knew it.
If this continued—
he would lose.
---
Then—
Vorgrath widened his stance.
"Watch."
---
ROOOOOOOOOAR!!!!!!!
His roar tore through reality.
BOOOOOM!!!!!
His aura exploded outward—
corrupting everything.
Twice.
Five times.
Ten times—
Then—
It broke.
---
CRAAAAACK!!!!!
A cocoon of abyssal energy formed around him—
then shattered.
---
BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!
A crater deeper than all others formed.
And from within—
Vorgrath emerged.
Changed.
---
> [WARNING]
Opponent has advanced to Stage 4
Divine Realm: Supreme God
---
His presence…
was different.
Denser.
Heavier.
Unavoidable.
At the center of his chest—
a burning red core pulsed like a dying sun.
---
He looked at Velzahar.
Like prey.
---
Velzahar smiled.
Bitter.
---
Two choices.
Break through—
or die.
---
His mind raced.
> "It is you… just not the version you recognize yet."
The system's words echoed.
---
The beast within.
The part he rejected.
---
Vorgrath stepped forward.
Each step cracked space.
---
"Giving up already?"
---
That voice—
echoed again.
Mocking.
Familiar.
---
"Welcome back… my cat."
---
Velzahar's eyes widened.
Nyxarion.
---
Was I… just a toy?
---
A flicker of doubt.
Then—
rage.
---
"NO."
---
The air trembled.
---
"NO!!!"
---
Lightning erupted around him.
---
"THIS LIFE IS MINE."
---
"IF HEAVEN WON'T OPEN—
I WILL BREAK IT."
---
ROOOOOOOOOOOOAR!!!!!
---
Something snapped.
---
Not control.
Not sanity.
---
A barrier.
---
His body shifted.
Expanded.
Transformed.
---
White fur—
streaked with blue lightning.
Muscle condensed—
dense—
divine—
unstable.
---
A pillar of azure flame erupted.
The abyssal burn marks—
vanished.
Erased.
---
Lightning wrapped around him—
like armor.
Alive.
---
His tail lashed—
space cracked with every movement.
---
His aura—
EXPLODED.
---
Vorgrath was forced back.
Sliding mid-air.
For the first time—
his expression changed.
---
"...Good."
---
Velzahar's power surged again—
unstable—
violent—
limitless.
His body breaking under the power
---
Cracks formed along his skin—
blue light leaking out.
---
His breathing—
ragged.
Unstable.
---
> He isn't in control.
He's forcing evolution.
---
BOOOOOOOM!!!!!
The ground collapsed beneath him.
A crater formed—
miles wide.
---
Velzahar hovered above it.
Eyes—
pure predator.
---
Then—
ROOOOOOOAR!!!!!
---
Vorgrath answered.
---
His body changed.
Expanded.
Armor fused into flesh.
Muscle swelled.
Height increased.
---
His hair—
burned like abyssal flame.
Red outside.
Black within.
---
His face—
no longer human.
Metal-like.
Demonic.
---
Abyssal fire coiled around him like a crown.
---
Two monsters.
---
Storm.
vs
Abyss.
---
Lightning condensed around Velzahar—
forming armor.
---
Flames condensed around Vorgrath—
forming dominion.
---
They stared at each other.
---
No words.
---
Only intent.
---
BOOOOOM!!!!!
Space shattered between them.
---
They moved.
