The wind howls across a devastated border.

Ruins stretch as far as the eye can see.

Collapsed towers.

Armed soldiers everywhere.

Nerakh… is no longer a city.

It has become a trap.

🌑 ARRIVALZadkiel and Shin'en stop at a distance.

Shin'en:

"…This is your homeland?"

Zadkiel:

"…It wasn't like this before."

Silence.

Then—

Soldiers step out.

Calm.

Too calm.

⚠️ IDENTIFICATIONA soldier approaches.

"…Zadkiel."

A pause.

Then—

The soldier's expression changes.

💥

In an instant—

💥 FIRST FIGHTShin'en moves first.

💥

Black flames erupt.

One strike.

Several soldiers are sent flying.

Bodies crash into the ground.

Zadkiel exhales.

Zadkiel:

"…We've gotten too strong."

Shin'en smirks slightly.

"Or they're too weak."

🧍‍♂️ THE SURVIVORSAmong the ruins—

Civilians.

Exhausted.

Broken.

A man speaks:

"The Order of Shadow… destroyed everything…"

Silence.

Shin'en:

"…They did this?"

Zadkiel narrows his eyes.

"…So this is what we're up against."

🔥 PRESENCE SEALShin'en closes his eyes.

Then—

💥

His aura explodes outward.

No attack.

No movement.

Just presence.

💥

Several soldiers collapse instantly.

Zadkiel's eyes widen.

Zadkiel:

"…A presence seal."

Kaion's voice echoes in his memory:

"Some can crush the weak… without touching them."

⚔️ REBELLION ARMEDZadkiel looks at the survivors.

"Take the weapons."

They hesitate.

Then—

They grab them.

Something changes.

Hope… or desperation.

Shin'en:

"…I've stopped hating."

Silence.

💥

Bursk strikes.

The ground cracks.

Shin'en blocks—

But slides back.

His body shakes.

He closes his eyes.

Kaion's words echo:

"Black flames are your will."

🔥 AWAKENINGThe flames stabilize.

No rage.

Control.

Precision.

Power.

Shin'en opens his eyes.

💥

He moves.

Faster.

Heavier.

Cleaner.

💥 First strike—Bursk staggers.

💥 Second strike—Bursk falls to one knee.

Bursk (weak):

"…This isn't rage anymore…"

💥

He collapses.

🧠 ZADKIEL VS ARYAMAInside the facility.

Dim light.

Silent tension.

Aryama appears.

Aryama:

"You see everything… yet you understand nothing."

💥

Energy blades appear.

Zadkiel dodges.

Barely.

He counters.

💥

A crack appears in Aryama's armor.

Aryama:

"Your future… is already ahead of you."

Zadkiel (thought):

"…I can see it… but I'm still uncertain."

💥

Final movement.

💥

Aryama is defeated.

Aryama:

"…You won't beat this world."

Zadkiel:

"Explain."

Kaelther:

"You've just touched… something much bigger."

"Governments. Hidden organizations. Betrayals."

Shin'en:

"…What?"

Kaelther:

"You've triggered something… you can no longer stop."

💀

"The truth… is more dangerous than your powers."

He dies.
