Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 – System Hunter

"Justice is just an illusion... until someone kills the one who wrote the laws."

— Lucian Veylor

---

The sky cracked.

The earth trembled.

From a fracture in the fabric of the world, a figure descended—silent, nameless.

Black crystalline armor wrapped his form.

Not forged of metal, but compressed data solidified into reality.

Two system blades hung crossed behind his back.

He had no name. Only a title:

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

[Hunter-Class: Supreme System Hunter – Echelon 01]

Mission: Terminate the Anomaly

Priority: Reclaim Control Over Reality

╚════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

---

He walked upon air.

Chasing the distortion.

Following the trail left by the Null Codex.

---

In a space unseen by mortal eyes...

Lucian sat—calmly rewriting the laws of the world with a single hand.

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

[System Modification: Magic Protocol]

Resource Source: Nature → Individual Will

Effect: Magic is no longer collective, but personal

╚════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

The Null Codex pulsed—

Not with magic,

but with absolute logic.

The world responded.

Some went mad.

Others were awakened.

And then… he arrived.

“Lucian Veylor.”

A cold, monotone voice.

“You have been designated as Primary Subject for Elimination. Execution sequence initiated.”

---

Lucian rose—slowly.

Composed. In control.

His eyes burned crimson beneath silver strands.

“At last... one of you shows up.”

He snapped his fingers.

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

[Activate: Null Domain]

Effect: Reality Zone Locked. External Systems Suspended.

World Laws Temporarily Nullified.

╚════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

---

Reality froze.

Time slowed.

The cosmos held its breath.

Two entities stood face to face:

One forged by the System.

One born to destroy it.

Lucian took a step forward—

Serene, like a king walking into his fate.

“If you think you came here to erase me...”

“...then you’ve already proven the System can still be deceived.”

And the battle began.
