– "The Tempest of the Lost Blood"
🌙 [SCENE – Phoenix Guild Dormitories | Early Morning]
Ryan tosses in bed, drenched in sweat.
Dark Voice(echoing in the dream):"Awaken… There's no more time… WAKE UP NOW!"
Ryan gasps and jolts awake. The room is dark, but a glowing cosmic blue light swirls over his body—The Reversum is active… even without his will.
🌅 [MORNING | Phoenix HQ Cafeteria]
Ryan walks in with dark circles under his eyes, visibly drained.
Ethan:"Dude… you look like a zombie."
Ryu(biting into a roll):"Even I didn't look that wrecked after seeing Tyrus up close."
Ryan slumps into a seat and lays his head on the table."I need a damn vacation…"
Ethan(laughing):"Couldn't agree more."
Ryu:"Count me in."
Zen appears at the doorway with his cursed katana slung over his back."Hey, Ryan. Darius wants to see you. Says it's urgent."
🏛 [Phoenix Guild Leader's Office]
Darius stands beside an older man with white hair—who bursts into tears when he sees Ryan.
Ryan, confused:"Sensei… Who is this man?"
Darius(smiling with his eyes):"This man… is your father, Ryan."
Ryan freezes."N-No… My father died… years ago…"
The man steps forward, overwhelmed.
Alfred:"You've grown so much, my son…"
Ryan, eyes welling with tears:"D-Dad… how?"
Alfred:"I disappeared to protect you. But someone found me… a red-haired man. He forced me to enhance the body of one of the Renegate leaders… and create divine amplification pills."
Darius:"So their leader has divine power…?"
Alfred:"Yes. And… I came to turn myself in. Darius, please… arrest me."
Zen:"No one's arresting you, old man. You've got way too much info."
Darius:"I agree. Zen, explain about Hant."
Zen(serious):"His power is the Architect of Fractured Reality. He bends logic itself—warping time, space, and physics. But now, with the power of one of Kairon's Heralds… he's one of the deadliest threats on Earth."
Darius turns to Ryan.
Darius:"And that's why… he's yours."
🌀 Reversum: Last Reflector VS 🧩 Fractured Dominion 🧠 Technical Breakdown — Theme of the Battle:
Hant's power breaks the laws of reality: time, logic, and physical rules unravel.
The Reversum doesn't just resist—it reverses: ending becomes beginning, chaos becomes harmony.
Ryan is the perfect counter to Hant.
Ryan(still in shock):"S-So… I'm the only one who can stop him…"
Darius:"Exactly."
Alarm blares.[ATTACK IN HERO CITY'S CENTRAL DISTRICT]
Darius:"Zen, Ryan—get there NOW."
Zen:"Yes, sir."
Alfred:"I… I'm going with my son."
Ryan:"Dad? Are you sure?"
Alfred(smiling):"More sure than ever."
🌆 [Sector 12 – Central District]
Explosions. Buildings in ruins. Screams.
Ryan and Alfred arrive.At the center of the chaos, a man is slaughtering civilians—Spiked black hair, green eyes, tribal neck tattoo, a jacket with a purple skull. A sarcastic grin.
Ryan:"STOP RIGHT NOW!"
Alfred(in panic):"No… impossible… WAIT—MASON!?"
Mason turns, cracking his neck."Well, well… hello, little brother."
With absurd speed, he slashes Alfred with a wind blade.The old man falls to the ground.
Ryan:"D-Dad…?"
Mason spits on the floor."He deserved it. A father who ditches his son for some aura-less trash like you."
Ryan(cosmic aura erupting):"YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS, MONSTER!"
Reverse Aura – Phase 1: Activated.Ryan strikes with a delayed force blow—launching Mason back.
Mason(laughing):"Not bad…"
Ryan(furious):"We're brothers…?"
Mason:"Yeah. You're the trash he chose.I'm the one he threw away.And now, you'll die too."
Mason activates his form:
🌀 Divine Tempest Crown
Wind dragons dance around him
Silver hair levitates
Green aura pulses
Gravity shatters
He dashes and lands a brutal strike—Ryan bleeds, his Reversum momentarily disabled.
Mason:"This reflect power of yours is impressive… but still weak!"
✨ [AND THEN…]
A crimson energy wall blocks the finishing blow.KANE JAYSON arrives!
Kane:"You fighting or just planning to get in my way, you damn nerd?"
Ryan wipes the blood, rising.
Ryan:"Just warming up."
Ryan:"Reversum – Phase 2: 45%!"
Galactic Blue Aura envelops him.Muscles glow. Hair spikes with cosmic force.
Mason(grinning):"Two against one… fair enough for you losers, huh?"
A shadowed voice echoes:"Not anymore."
🧩 HANT appears beside Mason."Now it's two versus two."
