Chapter : 4
The air didn't just vibrate it screamed. Shards of the Dragon-Scale Spirit Shielditems that should have withstood a mountain's weight were now nothing more than glowing dust coating the floor. Mark left arm went dead, the feedback from the System's 'Critical' warning ringing louder than the beast's breathing. He hadn't just attacked he had deleted my safety net.
The citizens and soldiers started to tremble in fear as they see 15 feet giant in front of there eyes wearing a Armor with a big AXE That can tear apart any thing In an instant the hero started to feel the fear but than Draganite voice shook the battle field
You guys we can't lose from them we have to come in our senses and defeat this giant ORC King

CLASS: KING OF WEAPONS S RANK
STATUS: SHADOW USING 30 PERCENT POWER
I stared at the translucent blue screen, my heart sinking. Thirty percent? The monster that was currently trampling through our front lines wasn't even the real thing—it was a fragment. A shadow. If this was just thirty percent, the true King would be a walking natural disaster
Draganite is right I hissed gripping my weapon until my knuckles turned white. "If we can't beat a shadow, we don't stand a chance against what's coming next and I promise myself that I will not die like a dog in my previous life I will kill this shadow now and some time after I will slay the King with my own hands but now I have to kill this shadow first..
The air started trembling and
A low, guttural roar tore through the battlefield as the shadow twisted, its massive form flickering like a broken illusion. But the pressure—it was real,Crushing and
Suffocating the air that no one can breath there
Sheldon fell back I shouted towards him from my lungs but he didn't move a bit
His eyes were locked onto the towering figure ahead—the Azomas Orc King's shadow. Even at thirty percent, it radiated an ancient, monstrous authority. Its jagged tusks glowed faintly, and its body pulsed like a living abyss it felt like some high being that can destroy this floor in an instant
I can hold it Sheldon said voice steady—but his trembling hands betrayed him and his heart stating pounding in fear but he kept his face steady
The ground crack and in an instant the shadow got vanished and a massive AXE
Toar Sheldon chest and launched him across the battlefield like a ragdoll blood sprayed mid air as his body crashed into the house and the house shattered in an instant
"Dam it"
Then shadow roared, its form expanding as dark energy spiraled violently around it.
We were being pushed back and don't now what to do
Every clash felt heavie slower impossible to handle
"Sheldon—!" I shouted as he was forced to one knee, his spear trembling under the sheer pressure of the ORC king
Blood dripped from his lips.
"I… can't hold it…"
The shadow raised its arm, a massive wave of destruction gathered in the way
This was it.
We were going to die here no one is going to save us
Then
Please save Us
A soft voice echoed.
Everyone froze.
At the edge of the battlefield, the villagers—injured, terrified—were watching.
And in front of them stood ELF surina .
Her hands were clasped, trembling… but her eyes
They were filled with unwavering belief.
Sheldon you can do it you have to stand and kill this beast
More voices followed.
"Protect us…!"
"Don't give up!"
"Hero… please…"
Something changed.
The air shifted.
A faint golden light began to flicker around Sheldon's body.
He lowered his head… then slowly stood up.
"…I hear you."
The system screen flickered violently.

[POWER RISING … 15%… 20%… 25%…]
THE BATTLEFIELD TREMBLED.
"THIS POWER
[30% UNLOCKED]
BOOM...
A massive surge of golden energy exploded outward, blasting the shadow back for the first time.
Sheldon's Spear shattered
but in its place
A radiant, divine spear formed in his hand.
It wasn't just a weapon.
It felt like judgment itself had taken shape.
Golden lightning cracked across the sky as his eyes glowed with divine authority.
I stared, stunned.
"Sheldon"
He stepped forward, calm now completely different.
"I won't fall here."
The Azomas Orc King's shadow roared in fury, its body expanding, dark energy raging like a storm.
It charged.
So did Sheldon.
In an instant, they collided.
BOOOOOOM!!
The ground collapsed beneath them as spear met claw. Golden light and dark energy clashed violently, tearing the battlefield apart.
The shadow swung wildly
But Sheldon moved like light itself.
Fast. Precise. Untouchable.
He pierced through its attacks, leaving trails of golden energy with every movement.
"This is for them—!"
A thrust
The spear tore through the shadow's shoulder, divine energy burning the wound, preventing regeneration.
The shadow howled.
For the first time
It was in pain.
I grinned, forcing myself up.
"Guess I can't be left behind…"
I joined in, attacking from the blind side while Sheldon overwhelmed it head-on.
The shadow tried to counter—
But it was too late.
We had momentum.
"Sheldon—NOW!" I shouted.
He rose into the air, golden energy gathering into the spear, compressing condensing…
Even the sky dimmed.
"This ends here."
He thrust downward and a "DIVINE" spear decend
The villagers' voices echoed again.
"SPEAR OF JUDGMENT"
A massive pillar of golden light spear descended from the heavens, engulfing the shadow completely.
Silence.
Then—
A deafening explosion.
BOOOOOOOOOOM
The ground shattered.
The dark energy dispersed.
And as the light faded
The Azomas Orc King's shadow stood there
cracked…
fading…
defeated.
But—
I narrowed my eyes.
"…No."
The air grew heavy again.
From the fading shadow—
A deeper… darker presence began to leak out.
Something far worse then current beast
A voice echoed, ancient and furious—
"You dare destroy my fragment…?"
My blood ran cold and I started to feel fear
The real one…
Was watching.
