The chamber of chaos still echoed with the clash of titans. Shadows twisted violently as Igron's Domain of Trickery and Deceit clashed with Veyrith's berserk might. Kairo emerged from the Gravekeeper's chamber, crimson aura blazing, chains coiling like serpents, Bone Blade humming with raw power.
Igron, battered and bleeding from countless strikes, had held the berserk warrior at bay long enough for Kairo's plan to progress. But exhaustion gnawed at him, and his illusions began to falter.
Kairo moved forward, silent and deliberate. Crimson chains whipped through the air, snaking around Igron, lifting him gently instead of striking. The Domain faded as Kairo approached, and Veyrith recoiled, sensing the absolute authority radiating from the Red-Eyed One.
"You've done your part," Kairo said, voice low and commanding. "But even the strongest warriors can break. Let me… fix this."
With a flick of his chains and a whisper of bone magic, wounds closed, bones knit back together, and bruised muscles healed. Igron gasped, feeling strength return, the Domain of Trickery and Deceit settling back into place.
Kairo's crimson eyes bore into him. "Your freedom cost you nothing more than endurance. But remember — you owe me still. The path forward belongs to me now."
Igron's lips curved faintly, pride mixed with respect. "You… truly are unstoppable," he admitted, finally understanding the full measure of Kairo's power.
Chains rattled, Bone Blade hummed. Kairo stepped back, leaving a fully healed Igron behind, ready to continue the rebellion if needed, but allowing Kairo to move toward the throne of Hades.
Hell itself trembled as the Red-Eyed One advanced, aura blazing, power absolute, and destiny unyielding. The final confrontation awaited.
