Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 - The Spear of War

The scene opened at the bustling international airport. Arjun and Kavya sat inside a sleek superjet bound for Tokyo, Japan. The soft hum of the engines vibrated through the plush seats as Arjun gazed out the window, his face calm yet focused.

Kavya crossed her arms, staring at him with narrowed eyes. "You're still not going to tell me what exactly this mission is about?"

Arjun smirked. "Let's just say… Earth needs us. Urgently."

Before she could question further, the superjet took off, soaring into the skies, slicing through clouds like a blade. The mission had already begun.

Tokyo, Japan

In the heart of Tokyo, chaos reigned. Once deemed the safest place on Earth, it now roared under a dark sky. Monsters and beasts—otherworldly, feral, grotesque—rampaged through streets, leaving destruction in their wake. Civilians screamed and scattered.

Among them stood a young Indian tourist in his early twenties—muscular, fierce-eyed, bold. His name was Reyansh. He hadn't come to Japan to fight, but fate had different plans. Armed with a magical blade he had picked up from a fallen JSS member, he fought the monsters with raw courage.

The Japan Security Squad (JSS) arrived swiftly, executing their formation with deadly precision. They held the monsters at bay—until a new presence emerged.

A towering figure with silver armor, blood-red cape, and glowing yellow eyes landed with a crash.

"General Kurokai," whispered one of the JSS officers, trembling. "He's here."

Kurokai smirked. "Let me show you the power of the Celestials."

He moved like lightning. Within minutes, the strongest squad in the world was defeated. Bodies flew. Hope dimmed.

Reyansh stepped forward despite his injuries. "I won't let you destroy this city!"

He fought bravely. But Kurokai was too strong. One strike sent Reyansh crashing into the concrete, bloodied and barely breathing. The General raised his blade to finish him.

Suddenly—

CLANG!

A divine sword blocked the blow. Standing before him was Arjun, his aura glowing, eyes blazing.

Kurokai growled. "Another insect?"

Arjun: "Insect? No. I'm the vaccine. And you... Are the virus."

Kavya leapt from above, kicking Kurokai mid-air, distracting him. As she began battling him ferociously, Arjun bent down beside Reyansh.

He pulled out a glowing herb from his pouch. "System medicine. You'll be fine."

As Reyansh's wounds closed instantly, he opened his eyes. "Who... are you?"

Arjun smiled. "Arjun. And that's Kavya, my teammate. Now get up Bro. You're special."

Kavya shouted mid-battle, "Less talking! More helping!"

Arjun scanned Reyansh with the system. The results glowed before his eyes.

"Candidate Identified. Divine Blessing: War God Kartikeya. Status: Dormant."

Arjun's eyes widened. No wonder he fought like that.

"Listen, Reyansh. You're blessed by The God Of War Kartikeya himself. That fire inside you? That battle spirit? It's divine."

Reyansh gasped. "What are you saying?! That's impossible—"

Kavya screamed, "I need help here!"

Arjun stood. "No more time. Trust me. Close your eyes and chant this mantra.And It Will Activate The Divine Power Inside You."

He whispered:

"ॐ स्कन्दाय नमः।

Om Skandaya Namah.

Reyansh hesitated, but something in Arjun's voice ignited faith. He closed his eyes and chanted:

"ॐ स्कन्दाय नमः। Om Skandaya Namah."

BOOM!

A golden aura exploded around him. His body lifted slightly, bathed in light. A celestial spear appeared in his hand—shimmering with energy.

Even Kurokai was stunned. "What... is this?!"

Reyansh stood, his wounds gone, his eyes glowing. "Let's finish this."

Kurokai, enraged, unleashed a massive blast, hurling Kavya. Arjun caught her mid-air, his arms steady.

He winked, "Got you."

She blushed slightly. "Shut up."

They landed safely. Kurokai lunged—but Reyansh blocked him with his spear.

"You're finished," Reyansh growled.

The two clashed, earth-shaking energy erupting from every strike. Reyansh Overpowered Kurokai. Then Kurokai laughed madly. "Fools! You haven't even seen my full power!"

His body expanded with dark flames, demonic wings spreading. The Clash Start Again But Now Both have seeming Equal Power.

Arjun stepped in, using his own power to bind Kurokai. "Now, Reyansh! End it!"

Reyansh roared, spear raised. A final attack exploded from it:

"Divine Storm: Vel Vortex!"

The spear spun and unleashed a storm of divine lightning and flames that engulfed the General.

Kurokai screamed and disintegrated in a blinding flash.

Silence fell.

JSS squads arrived moments later, cleaning up remaining monsters.

Reyansh, panting, turned to Arjun. "I... I felt it. The power. The connection to Shree Kartikeya."

Arjun smiled, patting his shoulder. "Will You Like to Join the team."

Reyansh nodded. " Ofcourse 'I'm in."

SYSTEM ALERT: Major EXP Awarded.

SYSTEM UPDATE: New Function Activated.

Arjun's eyes widened. "Wait... What's this?"
