The sky was tearing wider.
Black tendrils descended like roots seeking a corpse.
Noah stood beneath it, silent.
Nakula rushed toward him, armor stained with ash.
"Noah, the army is ready. So how should we attack? What should we do?"
Noah did not answer imdiately.
His gaze lingered at the gate.
The place where Nyx had vanished.
Then he exhaled.
"Use your ASI weapon to its full potential," he said quietly. "It might do sothing."
Nakula nodded.
Ashoka arrived monts later, carrying a sapphire-blue sword that shimred with layered divinity.
"Ah, Noah," Nakula said, taking the sword from Ashoka. "This sword is for you. Since I said I’d give you the best sword or weapon, but it’s not the ti to let you go and choose, so I picked this for you."
Noah took it.
The blade humd.
Dragon essence.
Constellation alignnt.
Layered reinforcent.
He smiled faintly.
"Don’t worry. It’s good."
His eyes shifted to Ashoka, then back to Nakula.
"He will fight too? Nakula, are you sure you want to let this kid fight?"
Ashoka’s face twisted with annoyance.
A minion dropped from the sky behind Noah.
Ashoka leapt.
His greatsword cleaved the creature cleanly in two before it touched the ground.
"I am Ashoka," he said firmly. "I am the student of Prince Nakula. So don’t think of as weak, because one day I will be great on my own."
Noah looked at him.
Nakula rested a hand on the boy’s shoulder and patted his head.
"Don’t worry, Noah. He won’t hinder us."
Ashoka pouted.
Noah turned back to the sky where the Chaos tentacles were coming out, destroying the upper part of the kingdom.
"Well, it’s good," Noah said. "Because the fight is going to be much scarier and deadlier."
He unsealed the sword in his hand.
"So this sword is ALEZIAT, with dragon essence to boost this sword’s capability beyond its limits, huh?"
Nakula smiled slightly. "Well, if you deduced it on your own, then let’s fight against it."
Nakula unsealed ASI.
Seven stars burst from the blade and rose higher into the sky, forming a constellation sigil above the battlefield.
He swung.
The energy shockwave alone shattered dozens of minions in one swing.
The blade struck a descending tentacle, but no damage was done. The flesh rippled.
Regenerated.
Noah smiled.
"Nice. Now let’s strike it."
He launched upward, ALEZIAT blazing.
"ALEZIAT," he commanded, "release all your power and destroy my enemies."
The slash multiplied mid-flight.
It ignored distance.
Skipped space.
It tore into the tentacle and nearly severed it.
Then Noah noticed Karna in the sky.
He raised his twin spears.
"I have no reason to limit myself," Karna declared. "So I will go all out."
His twin spears rged into one blazing core.
A solar halo, a fiery ring, ford behind him.
"O GREAT SUN— Giver of Life and Destroyer of Worlds. ALL ABIDE TO ULTIMATE DEATH."
The air liquefied.
Noah used ALEZIAT to cut down the minions heading toward Karna, slicing them into small pieces to clear his path.
Gold buildings in Kurugshetra began to soften and lt from the heat.
The beam fired.
It transcended speed.
Sound.
asure.
It struck the tentacle directly.
A massive detonation ripped across Kurugshetra.
One entire limb of Chaos was annihilated.
Silence followed.
Then the limb began regenerating.
Noah sighed in annoyance.
"Did he really have to regenerate this? Can’t it let seal him?"
Karna fell from the sky.
Nakula caught him.
Noah returned to the ground and noticed that Karna’s whole body had turned black, burned by his own power.
Nakula’s composure shattered.
"Karna... you can’t leave . You can’t."
Healing light wrapped around him.
Karna vomited blood.
"Nakula," he whispered faintly, "don’t be sad. It’s a proud thing that I’m dying while protecting the kingdom."
Nakula shook his head violently.
"No, no, no. I can’t let you die. You killed our father, Karna. Please don’t leave us."
Noah observed quietly.
Nakula hated him for killing his father, but also couldn’t bear to let Karna die.
Mortals were so painfully contradictory.
Noah picked up Karna’s fallen spears and looked at the Chaos tentacle still regenerating.
"While it’s difficult, Nakula, we are in the middle of a war. Don’t be overwheld by emotions here."
Karna weakly touched Nakula’s cheek and wiped the tears from beneath his blindfold.
"Nakula, Noah is telling the truth. A warrior prince should never be hopeless or like this during a war."
Nakula inhaled sharply.
"I will give my all now."
Then he removed his blindfold.
Noah’s gaze sharpened.
Nakula’s eyes were inverted.
White where black should be.
Black where white should be.
Destiny resonance.
ASI flared violently in response.
"Noah, Karna... please don’t die on ," Nakula said.
He stood, took his sword ASI, and launched skyward.
Noah grabbed Karna’s spears while Ashoka began treating Karna with dicine, tears streaming down his face. The boy was crying, but he wasn’t making any noise.
Karna was also in pain.
Noah sensed sothing.
ASI was cutting destiny. Not just the opponent’s destiny, but the wielder’s as well.
He looked at the sky.
Nakula was cutting through minions very easily.
"I WILL KILL THAT MONSTER! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO HURT KURUGSHETRA!"
He prepared to strike directly at Chaos.
Noah moved instantly.
He intercepted.
Forced Nakula down with brutal force.
"Are you lost your mind? You want to cut Chaos’s destiny?"
Nakula shoved him away.
"So what? This is just a monster. I will kill his destiny."
Noah slapped him across the face.
The sound cut through the battlefield.
"Don’t be an idiot."
Nakula froze.
"If you cut Chaos’s destiny," Noah continued coldly, "it will make all physical worlds co to an instant end."
Nakula stared at him in shock.
"But what should..."
Before he could finish his words, the Fake Sky of the Titaine world split entirely.
The Real Sky poured downward like a curtain of void.
The temperature plumted.
Stars burned overhead.
The sky beca a starry night, fully visible.
And sothing vast descended.
Not tentacles.
Not fragnts.
Chaos itself.
Fully manifested.
Noah stared upward.
He felt the distortion.
This was not supposed to happen yet.
Not for three days.
Not this fast.
It should have taken three days, but Dragonforce made it happen in just so hours.
He clenched ALEZIAT tighter.
His voice rose, shaking the air.
"DRAGONFORCE— I WILL KILL YOU FOR DOING ALL THIS SHIT AGAINST !"
Above them—
Chaos pulsed.
Watching.
