Chapter 37 - Chapter 37 – The Awakening of Chaos

Scene: A battlefield in ruins – the sky shrouded in black clouds with crimson lightning crackling above.

[Inavy and Zion clash at blinding speed. Inavy struggles to keep up. Zion, empowered by Tyrus' darkness, is relentless.]

Zion (arrogant, eyes glowing red):— "You're nothing compared to my master's brother. You'll die here, boy."

[Inavy, bloodied and bruised, gasps for breath. He tries to counter, but Zion strikes — a devastating blow aimed straight at his heart.]

Inavy (thinking, panic rising):— "I can't dodge this…!"

[Just then — a flash of light, faster than thought. The earth shakes violently.]

SFX:ZUUUUM!

Ray appears, intercepting the blow with the last of his strength. The impact hurls him backwards, crashing through debris. Silence falls.

Inavy (shouting, terrified):— "RAY!!!"

[He rushes to Ray's side. His mentor lies dying, barely conscious, a gentle smile on his lips.]

Ray (weakly, through shallow breaths):— "Inavy… I'm sorry… I just wanted to protect you, my son…"

Inavy (sobbing uncontrollably):— "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!"

[His scream shakes the earth. The clouds spiral. A crimson and black light erupts from the heavens like divine judgment.]

[Inavy slowly rises. His body trembles with energy. His once curly black hair straightens, dark with shimmering white streaks. His eyes glow with a deep crimson.]

[Then — a voice echoes, vast and ancient, heard across the world.]

Mysterious Voice (echoing):— "The Warlord has returned."

[Nion had awakened — no longer a spirit, but fully incarnated in Inavy's body. His gaze is emotionless, absolute.]

[He lifts Ray's lifeless body gently. In a blink, he appears before the other heroes: Lorien, Rose, Diana, Kelvin, Darius, and more.]

[Everyone freezes. Rose and Diana break down in tears at the sight of Ray.]

Rose (whispering, broken):— "No... Ray…"

Kelvin (falling to his knees, trembling):— "NO, NO, NO!!!"

[Kelvin vomits from the shock, spiraling into panic. Darius clenches his fists, crying silently.]

Darius (voice cracking):— "Stubborn old man… you damn hero…"

[Lorien tries to stay composed, his hands shaking. A single tear escapes.]

Nion (solemnly):— "Take care of the bearer of Light… He was a great man."

[And with that, he vanishes again.]

[Back on the battlefield — Zion shivers, instinctively stepping back.]

Zion (terrified):— "This… this aura… it's the same… as my master's…"

[Nion raises his hand. In the sky, a massive seal shatters. From it descends the Blade of Chaos in its true form, ancient and terrifying.]

Nion (looking into the void):— "Ten thousand years, Tyrus… I can feel your presence, foolish little brother…"

[Cut to: A dark dimension. Tyrus, watching through a portal, grins wickedly, holding the Spear of Destiny.]

Tyrus (laughing):— "Yes, brother… soon, we'll meet again. And I'll kill you with my own hands, creature of Yon."

[Cut back to Nion, who smiles darkly and looks at Zion.]

Nion (taunting):— "Are you scared, Zion?"

[Zion doesn't answer — frozen in fear.]

Nion (raising the Blade, voice low and deadly):— "Come on, then. Let's dance."

[Even miles away, the other heroes can feel his overwhelming aura. The atmosphere bends under the pressure.]

Lorien (wide-eyed, voice grim):— "That… that wasn't Inavy. That was something far greater. A monstrous being…"

Diana (still crying, softly):— "Chaos… has awakened."
